《Being an Empress》4. A Promise, 100 Compromises.

Varsha's POV.
Royal men, even the lowest of them can hardly ever he happy with a single wife, unless they really love their first wife, which is almost an impossibility. I remembered the words of Princess Kanaka. She had told me this, when I told her my only marriage condition, which my parents made to my would have been fiancee. Our daughter must be the only wife of your son. I looked above straight at him, I knew if I kept quite for even another minute he would assume my consent and pounce on me. He was eyeing me as a lion would to a rabbit, as one would to their prey.
"Rajkumarji, I have a condition for marriage, which I am sure you wouldn't be able to fulfill." I said. It was strange, I, a girl with almost, no confidence am facing a man who is a prince, talking with him, in fact conditioning him... It would have been a proud moment if the cold air of the night was not tickling my barely covered skin. "I will only marry a man, who promises me that he will remain a eka-patni vrata." I said a strange calmness engulfing me and with a confidence I didn't know I had. He did not reply for a moment. I sighed. I would join the hermit in the village that is in Matsya Desh... It's run by Maa Tulasi. He also looks like a prince from Matsya Desh. Maybe Yuvraj's younger brother. But before my thoughts could drool..
*Depressing Content Ahead*
"I Vikramaditya, son of Maharaja Veerbal with moon as a witness owe to marry no other woman but you. I promise to remain eka pati vrata, all my life." I didn't understand anything... All I heard was he agreed. He agreed. Meaning... Oh God...He let my pallu go.. He cut his thumb in his sword and let the blood drops fall in my forehead. I didn't know, what to make of his expression, it was plain. Was he angry? But before I could contemplate, he came near me, I wanted to move back but felt paralyzed.... He is my husband... He left his sword to fall on the ground and his lips crashed into mine. He was biting my lips so hard that I could taste my own blood. His hands removed my hand from the position of covering myself and let it fall, his hands were squeezing my arms and it ached. I wanted to cry but his mouth was on mine and crying was not right.... He was my husband... He, my husband... I kept repeating this to myself. I closed my eyes to prevent tears from flowing out. I couldn't breath. I felt blackness and exhaustion taking over, when he pulled back.

It felt like another life, but it was only a moment and then he again kissed me, Princess Kanaka, was wrong... A kiss is so painful... It's far from feeling of heaven. He left my arm and I felt like I was relived from hell.. I am sure I will have a mark, with how tight his hold was. He tugged at my hair and I felt, sharp pain. He used his other hand to touch my waist, he was pinching me. He released me from the kiss and started biting my neck, slowly moving towards my shoulder.. Next thing I knew was my favourite blouse getting torn and falling on the ground and my feet leaving those ground. I felt helpless, but this was right. He was my husband. Uneasiness settled in me. He was looking at me like I was born. I felt ashamed. I didn't dare open my eyes but I knew he was taking me to his tent... He was a man, a single promise to me by a Kshatriya could be trusted but now he will make sure, I would compensate with at least 100 Compromises...

Sky Sight
A city of the future. That's what they called Agona; the isolated experiment, built for efficiency and technological integration from the ground up. Cameras and microphones are everywhere, super computers buried beneath the city serve as processors to judge the actions of everyone living within it, dealing out real life karma. For years, peace reigns. The city is the envy of many, a place of prosperity and wealth. Then a number of trains malfunction, being routed through the city's blue external barrier, and the game begins. Gaining positive karma no longer gives discounts on goods, it gives otherworldly abilities, supernatural powers. But gaining negative karma gives those same abilities as well. The barrier surrounding the city becomes charged, turning anyone who wishes to leave into a pile of ash. Forced into the seemingly impossible game of good and evil, the new residents of the city must decide which side they're on or remain helpless.

Mobs die. This is truth universally acknowledged by anyone who has ever played an RPG. But not all of them want to. Follow a young Drakeling on his path to no longer get fed his own legs by over leveled fighters; his path to finding a home in the brutal world of Arkus; and maybe even his path to true love!.. nah. Fair bit of smut though! This is a migration fic from CHYOA, and as such has quite a lot of mature content in it. Also, this story is told in 2nd person. You have been pre-warned.

Dungeon Park is a hilarious tale of creativity, triumph over adversity, and cute skeletons. "It's a real rollercoaster ride of a story!" New chapters as and when they are written.
