Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 32

JASMINE

Making love with Sadiq in the middle of that Sandstorm was going to be a moment I’ll never forget.. That moment we had solidified our relationship.. We were obsessed and so in love with one another after that..

After the storm, We continued our journey back to Nishkapur , and within two days we arrived… I was so happy to be back, things sure haven’t changed much… Immediately we got into the city, I decided to show Sadiq around, I really don’t know where I was going with him but at least I won’t be alone like last time.

.

Jasmine Oh It’s good to be back home…

.

Sadiq So that is Nishkapur? It’s not as fancy as Marida but it’s okay…

.

Jasmine it may not be fancy but Life here is better here than in Marida.

.

Sadiq Okay.. Okay.. Let’s get to your father’s place..Shall we?

.

Jasmine Sure.. Follow me.

.

Sadiq and I made our way to the palace.. On our way there, I noticed some guards staring at us.. Why were these guards looking at us? Besides its not like they recognize me.. I’ve been gone for months. So I got closer to Sadiq holding his arm. In that moment, Sadiq and I were surrounded by lots of guards, aiming us with spears…. Sadiq was surprised by this and he asked what was going on?

.

Sadiq What’s the meaning of this?

.

Guard 1 You old shit….. Who’s the lady you’re with?

.

Sadiq Which Lady?

.

Guard 2 The one behind you, pig!

.

Sadiq Oh.. There’s no need for this commotion.. This is your princess Jasmine.. She and I are…

.

Before Sadiq could finish, the men bombarded him and got hold of him, Sadiq tried to struggle but he was no match for a dozen men, as for myself, I was grabbed by one of the guards but I wasn’t roughen up like Sadiq.

.

Jasmine Let go of me fool.

.

Guard 1 I’m sorry princess but I must return you to your father…

.

Jasmine I’m not going anywhere not without Sadiq…

.

Guard 1 I’m sorry we can’t do that your father has ordered us to put him in the dungeons…

.

Jasmine Is that so? Take me to my father..

.

Sadiq Jasmine! What’s going on?

.

Jasmine Don’t worry love.. I’ll sort things out.

.

After that, Sadiq was taken away and I was taken back to the palace in a carriage to meet my father.. I couldn’t help but wonder how he would react if he saw me.

.

SULTAN_ALI

For months I’ve waited and hoped that one of these men bring my daughter home, i kept praying and hoping, but as the days went by, I began to lose hope… I concluded to myself that she was dead but there are times why I felt that she was alive out there.

My council convinced me that Jasmine was alive, but they also suggested I got married again so that i can another heir just in case Jasmine was dead… But I didn’t give in to their ridiculous idea..

.

Council 1 Your highness… It’s better you get married and have another heir.. Sometimes Fate gives us the unexpected.

.

Council 2 Absolutely… Besides we’re not sure if the princess is alive.. There hasn’t been any news of her in months.

.

Sultan Ali NO!! I will not marry.. My daughter is not something that can easily be replaced.. I’ll keep on waiting till the day she returns.

.

Council 3 What if she doesn’t return?

.

Sultan Ali One more word of ill luck from your mouth, and I’ll the guards cut out your tongue. Fool.

.

Council 3 Sorry your highness.. I mean no ill wish against the princess.

.

In that moment, The door bursted open interrupting over meeting, One of the guards rushes in, breathing hard and trying to maintain his salute.

.

Guard (pants) Hah, hah, hah, apologies your highness… Hah, I have.. hooo… some report!

.

Sultan Relax boy. What’s your report?

.

Guard Your daughter… I mean the princess has been spotted here in Nishkapur!

.

Sultan Ali What???

..

Council 1 Are you sure?

.

Council 2 If you’re playing tricks, you’ll be dealt with seriously.

.

Council 3 Maybe he’s drunk..

.

Guard I swear on my life, your highness.. She was spotted with a man.. We suspect the man is dangerous.. As I’m speaking to you now, The man is being apprehended and the Princess will be rescued.

.

Sultan Ali Unbelievable! Bring that man here… I want him alive… Wait.. Throw him in the dungeons… Make sure my daughter is being brought here safely… Make sure nothing happens to her.

.

Guard Don’t worry your highness the princess will be safe..

.

The Guard hurries out in a flash.. The council and I were stunned by this revelation… I couldn’t believe it.. My only daughter… She’s alive all this time… Oh how great are the gods… I must throw a feast to celebrate her return.

Moments later, The guards return back to the palace with Jasmine… I’ve never been so happier in my life. As I went out to welcome her, I saw her having a struggle with the guards.

.

Jasmine You fools…. I’ll make you all pay for this.. Understand? Morons..

.

Sultan Ali Jasmine… My daughter..

.

Jasmine Oh father… It’s been so good to see you…

.

Sultan Ali I feel the same way, my dear… What’s going on here?

.

Jasmine These fools man handled the man I was with, How dare they lay their filthy fingers on him?

.

Sultan Ali Who’s this man?

.

Jasmine He’s the man I came with…

.

Sultan Ali Wait… The man you’re with… That man is dangerous… What did he do to you? I should have his severed from his body..

.

Jasmine No father.. You don’t understand… He’s not dangerous.. He’s my savior… He saved my life.. He’s been good to me.. He’s the one that brought my back home.

.

Sultan Ali Oh… What have I done? Guards!!!

.

Ali Yes your highness!!!

.

Sultan Ali Bring the prisoner here at once.. I’d like to see the man that’s brought back my daughter to me.. Jasmine.

.

Jasmine Yes father?

.

Jasmine Okay father.
