Tara was only staring at the palace with widening eyes. She never thought that such a huge palace could exist in this village. She felt like she has landed in a different era. She walked in. She has noticed one thing while entering in this village. Everyone is treating Radha like a Queen. Everyone respects her and love her. Radha is also treating everyone with so much love and care, like these people are her own.

Dadaji was sleeping. Radha told to not wake him up.

"Rehana, why don't you take your bhabhijaan outside? Let her see your friends.."

Rehana was excited after getting such a proposal from Radha. She immediately grabbed Tara's wrist and pulled her outside the mansion.

They walked inside the maze field. Rehana was running from one corner to the other. Tara was also running after her. She really felt like a free soul after coming here. The air is so fresh. The smell of this place is so earthly. She always wanted to visit a village but she never got this opportunity.

"Are you leaving tomorrow?"

Rehana asked her with a sadness in her tone.

"Yes...My exam will start from next week"

Suddenly she hugged her chest tightly.

"Please don't go...please stay..."

Her voice is shaking. Tara slowly wrapped her hands around her body. Her heart is aching after hearing her tone.

"I will come again after exam"

Tara said while patting her hair.

"Zayed also said that but he never came back"

Tears spiled from Rehana's eyes.

"Who is Zayed?"

Tara asked her.

"Zayed is my fiance...but he never came back...why he left me Tara? Am I so bad? I want to marry him but he left me...I waited for him all day long...I was wearing a red lehenga on my wedding but he never came.."

Tara was shocked. Rehana was crying while telling all these to her.

Suddenly they heard someone's footstep. Within a second Sakeeb entered the field. He saw Rehana's crying state. Immediately his face turned pale. Tara noticed his expression.

"What happened Rehana?"

He bent on his knees in front of Rehana.

Tara found something on his eyes. He is looking so sad like Rehana's pain is affecting him.

"Tara is leaving tomorrow...I don't want her to leave..can you talk to Bhaijaan and make her stay with me Sakeeb?"

She grabbed Sakeeb's hand eagerly. Sakeeb immediately pulled his hands back in tension.

"I will surely talk to him... don't worry"

Rehana smiled broadly and wiped her tears.

"Now let's go to Jana's house...."

Sakeeb looked at Tara once and then he immediately changed the topic.

"Dadaji is now waiting for you..he finally woke up..let's go home"

"No..I want to meet Jana.."

Rehana stomped her feet.

"It's not the right time to go there..."

Tara got curious. She clearly felt that Sakeeb is doing this on purpose.

"Who is Jana?"

Tara asked.

"Noone...Mam.."

Sakeeb said.

"Hawww!!! You said Jana is noone? She is my Bhaijaan's special..everyone knows this...she is my Bhaijaan's special woman..."

Tara lost her speech completely. She looked at Sakeeb who is now going red in tension.

"No need to hear all these mam..these are rumours...please come with me"

Sakeeb said with a nervous smile.

"I want to go there..."

Tara's tone is strict.

"Yes...Jana is so sweet...you will love her"

Rehana was looking so eager while Sakeeb is looking messed up. It felt like he wants to hide something from Tara. A pang of jealousy covered her inside. The word "Special Woman" is burning her both ears constantly. She felt a kind of stubbornness inside her. She wants to meet this Jana by any means.

"But Mam...Sir won't like this"

Tara stopped in her tracks. She turned her head towards Sakeeb. She doesn't know why but her inside is crumbling down.

"Why? I have the right to know about his past"

Her own voice appeared so foreign to her. She couldn't understand why she is feeling like this but this feeling is strong and she can't ignore this at all.

Sakeeb lowered his head.

Tara followed Rehana.

Sakeeb immediately connected Ibrahim's number. He picked up after few rings.

"Sir..there is a problem...Tara mam went to Jana bai's kotha..."

Ibrahim's eyes widened.

"What the fuck! Go and stop her right now..tell her this is my order"

"I already told her sir but she is not listening to me"

Ibrahim pressed his forehead.

"Okay I'm coming..."

..,.....................

"Why did you stop? Come in..."

Rehana pulled Tara inside the house. In first glance Tara understood that this place is not someone's house. After seeing the women she instantly understood that this place is a recreational place.

"She is my bhabhijaan...she wants to meet Jana..where is she?"

Rehana asked those women who were looking at Tara curiously.

Tara was also looking at them. They all are beautiful and cladded in tons of make up. They all were wearing ghagra choli.

"Jana begum is sleeping..."

One of them said.

"It's daytime and i know she only sleeps at night..."

Suddenly Tara heard a soft giggle. She immediately lifted her gaze up only to meet the most beautiful women of the world.

She actually felt this because she has never seen someone that much beautiful before. She is even beautiful than Prajakta. Most importantly her smile. It's so magical that anyone will lost their heart on her feet just for this smile.

"Tota is here...why did you stop my tota? Come tota..and bring your bhabhijaan too"

What a mesmerizing voice!

Tara looked at the woman, she is also staring at her with a warm smile.

Rehana and Tara walked upstairs. Tara's heart was beating so fast. She doesn't know why but she is feeling so sad all of a sudden.

The beauty of this woman is beyond amazing. She is the special woman of Ibrahim. Only this thought drove her restless. She got scared after seeing her own state. Why this is affecting her so much? What is wrong with her?

"Come my Queen.."

Jana entered her room. Jana is not wearing any make up. Her room is also simple as her.

Tara was about to sit on her bed but Jana instantly stopped her.

"Please sit here my Queen...This bed is not worthy of you...Nawab Saab will kill me if he finds his Jaan sitting on my bed"

This was a shock for her.

She knows that Ibrahim calls her Jaan.

But she felt a stubbornness inside her again. She instantly sat on the bed ignoring her words.

Jana smiled slightly.

Tara's eyes roamed around the room.

"Jana, I'm going in the terrace..."

Rehana immediately ran out of the room.

"She is so cute.."

Jana said and looked at Tara to initiate a conversation but Tara averted her gaze coldly. Her heart is still burning.

Jana noticed that envy and suppressed her smile.

"You are very beautiful my Queen..."

Jana said.

"I'm not your Queen...call me Tara and I'm not beautiful...I know that very well"

She replied rudely.

She has never talked with anyone rudely before. She doesn't know from when she became like this? But she is feeling so much anger right now.

Why did he marry her, when already he has a special woman?

She is feeling like to scream and cry. Why did he ruin her life like this?

"You are not liking me... Actually woman like me are not likable... But I'm not a wh*re.."

Tara instantly stared at her.

Her heart felt a deep pang again.

Wh*re!!

This means she is Ibrahim's.........

She can't imagine further. She felt like running to Dehradun. This time she won't allow him to torture her again. She will slap him hard across his face.

Jana walked towards a cupboard and retrieved something.

Tara looked at those things. Some letters.

Jana sat on the floor by spreading her legs. Then she opened her long hair. She is looking like a seductress.

Tara felt like to splash some water on her face. She seduced men. It's evident from her appearance.

"Have you ever loved someone my Queen?"

She asked while opening those letters.

"I love someone more than my life..Love make me like this...I know he can never be mine but I never stopped loving him for that...Love is beautiful, love is beyond our soul....it's empowering and destructive at the same time...I want to be Fanaa in his love"

Tara looked out of the window.

"I don't believe in love..."

Tara replied in a harsh tone.

Jana smiled softly.

"When you will understand this feeling, You will be ready to destroy your soul..."

Jana said.

Tara looked at her sharply.

"Without soul, I won't be a human then..."

Tara retorted.

"Ishq sirf mujhe huwa tha..

Usse toh bass kuch pal ka nasha huwa tha..

Usssi Ishq ne hume Fanaa kar diya.."

(I was really in love with him, but for him it was just an infatuation...That love destroyed me)

Tara was stunned. She saw tears in Jana's eyes but she instantly wiped them and smiled broadly.

"Let me read this to you my Queen"

Tara wanted to run away from this house but something stopped her. These letters must be Ibrahim's. He has written those letters to Jana. She felt the curiousity to know what is written in it. These letters are the evidence of his cheating.

What he said few days back...that he can't tolerate cheating. But he himself is cheating on her for a long time. What a double standard man!

"Read it..."

Tara said while gulping down her tears.

Jana started to read the letters.

"I don't know what is the true meaning of the word beautiful. Something which appeared amazing in our eyes. But what is the word for something that give an aching and happiness at the same time to our soul?

Do I have a soul?

I kill people, I love to hear their screams, I punish them without any remorse. A man with the blood line of Nawab should be like this. Ruthless and without compassion.

But whenever I see her, I feel all these together. Aching, compassion, happiness, peace, ethereal, heavenly and what not...

She is capable of arising so many emotions inside me at a time. I feel boundless. I feel that I'm not a part of this world anymore. I have not born to rule, i have born to only love her. I have born to follow her command.

She has binded my soul, she has captured it with her innocence.

Her innocence is captivating. It hypnotizes me everytime. Whenever I saw her orbs, I feel like to drove myself in the depth of her heavenly eyes and never return to this world again.

Am I behaving absurd?

What is this feeling actually called? Love is not the exact word for it. Love is limited. My feelings are not. It's intense, raw and destructive.

She is like a beautiful shadow. An evergreen forest. A deep blue sea. Her purity is....

"Stop...."

Tara covered her ears. She is shaking. Her tears are now flowing without any restrain. She can't hear this anymore.

Ibrahim's love for another woman felt like a poison to her. She felt someone is peeling her skin.

Suddenly she heard footsteps. Within a second Ibrahim entered the room.

Jana immediately stood up. Tara saw her expression. She is also trembling and the smile in her face saying everything.

Tara immediately wiped her tears. She will not shed her tears in front of him.

In front of a cheater.

Everything happens for a good. Destiny bring her here to reveal his true face. It's his nature to use every single woman and throw them like a tissue paper.

"I'm bringing some milk for you..."

Jana instantly left the room.

Tara felt his eyes on her. He is walking closer to her.

"Why did you come here? Didn't Sakeeb tell you to....."

Tara closed her eyes after hearing his voice. She lost her every ounce of patience.

Within a second she gave a hard push on his chest. This was so sudden that he stumbled back.

"Stay away from me.. I'm not going to take your nonsense anymore, just stay right there"

She shouted while tears made their way on her cheek.

Ibrahim was speechless.

This is the first time she raised her voice.

"What is this?"

Ibrahim took steps near her.

"Don't you dare to come near me"

She moved back. Her voice is shaking so much.

Ibrahim doesn't know how to react. He is still not believing this reaction of her.

"You are a cheater...You have cheated on me.."

Finally she sat on the floor by covering her face. The next moment muffled sobb escaped her mouth.

Ibrahim sat beside her. He doesn't know how to feel at this moment.

She is jelaous!

A wave of happiness ran through his whole body. He has never imagined that she can be jealous for him! Is it really happening?

"With whom I have cheated?"

He asked very softly.

Tara immediately uncovered her face and looked at him in accusation.

"With Jana..."

Her lips quievered and fresh tears rolled down to her cheeks.

"You are right...I love Jana"

Tara's eyes widened. Her heart dropped.

"Then why did you marry me? Why did you destroyed my life? I never wanted to marry you...You forced me in your life...why?"

Her voice turned low and she cried so much.

"I just wanted to experiment something"

"Experiment?"

Ibrahim nodded his head.

"I wanted to see if I can forget Jana like this but I was wrong...She is still here"

He pointed on his chest.

Big fat tears escaped her eyes.

"You... experimented with my life?"

Tara asked.

Ibrahim nodded his head.

Tara stood up like a robot.

"I want to experiment more..May be after sleeping with you, I can forget Jana.."

As soon as he said that, his head tilted back with a hard slap across his face.

Tara has slapped him.

Ibrahim looked at her being speechless.

Jana was also entering the room. She stopped after seeing the scene. She was equally shocked. She could never imagine that someone is capable of slapping him.

Tara walked passed him. She is actually shaking from inside after slapping him.

Suddenly he grabbed her stomach from behind. Fear crawled inside her. She started to wiggle.

"Let me go...leave me..leave me..."

She started to throw her legs but Ibrahim's hold was stronger than her attempts.

"Jana, close the door and leave us alone...I want to do my second experiment right now"

Tara's eyes widened. Before she could react, she landed on the bed. The next second she finds her hands were tied in the bed post.
