Sagarika were looking at her captivators with piercing eyes. They were getting nervous looking at her.

"D-Daku Dhananjay, we are going to look out for search parties." Anakul said quickly and left with Dev and Jyesht.

"Is this your first time kidnapping someone ?" Sagarika asked getting up.

"N-no ?" Dhananjay said nervously.

"No ? I thought it might be since you didn't tie my hands and feet." Sagarika said picking up a big branch fallen from the tree.

"I-I didn't see the need." Dhananjay said.

"You should have." Sagarika said and Dhananjay got a bad feeling.

"N-no no !" Dhananjay ran as Sagarika ran behind him with the branch.

Surprisingly she quickly caught up with him and was about to hit him when he picked up a shield right in time.

"Anakul ! Dev !" Dhananjay called.

And suddenly Sagarika was picked up from behind by her waist by Anakul as Dev blew the white powder at her face, causing her to fall unconscious.

They quickly went back and this time tied her hands to the branches to the trees. Anakul and Dev looked at Dhananjay and started laughing.

"Stop !" Dhananjay scolded.

"Seriously the fearsome Daku Dhananjay was about to be beaten up by a princess !" Anakul laughed.

"I had already told you all not to underestimate her." Jyesht said coming towards them.

"She's waking up." Dev said and everyone went back to their positions.

Sagarika wakes up realises that this time she had ropes tied around her hands. She then angrily looked at Dhananjay.

"Untie me." Sagarika said.

"That I cannot do. If I untie your hands, you might kill me this time." Dhananjay asked.

"That will happen either way, because if you get caught then Maharaj, my father, will order your death warrants but before that there is a high chance of me killing you !" Sagarika said.

"Aye don't kill me ! If you kill me then what about my marriage ?" Dhananjay asked.

"What's my connection to your marriage ?" Sagarika asked.

"You have full connection with my marriage. Let me tell you the sad tale of Daku Dhananjay." He said.

"I don't want to listen to your tale. Untie me." Sagarika said.

"I won't do that !" Dhananjay said.

"I won't spare you !" Sagarika said about to lunge at him.

He took a step back and she got stuck, her ropes didn't let her move forward. Dhananjay chuckled as Sagarika looked at him angrily.

"Devi Ranchandi, please sit down and listen to my sad tale." Dhananjay said, Sagarika grunted sitting down.

"Look at my poor fate, born in the family of dacoits, no one wants to marry their daughter to me. By many hardships my mama fixed a marriage alliance. The girl is beautiful, I too like her but mama being mama put forward a condition. He told me to kidnap you, take care of you, obtain huge ransom out of you and only then I will get married." Dhananjay narrated his so called sad tale.

"I won't be your captive !" Sagarika said.

"See ! Anakul see ! There Mama is not listening and here Devi Ranchandi is not listening ! And in their listening-not listening, my wife's parting of hair will remain empty." Dhananjay said.

"You're not understanding Dhananjay let me go !" Sagarika said.

"You're not understanding devi ! If I don't do this and the girl's life will be ruined, if her life is ruined then my life would be ruined. I swear if it were about shooting a target then I would've done it in a jiffy but mama doesn't understands. Does this innocent face of mine deserve so much pain ? Tell me." Dhananjay said.

"Who is your mama ?" Sagarika asked.

"Mother's brother." Anakul said.

"I do know what mama means, I mean who is he ? What does he do ?" Sagarika asked annoyed.

"Princess, you don't know our mama ?!" Dev exclaimed.

"He abducts girls, keeps them deep inside the forest, obtains huge ransoms from their families." Dhananjay said.

"And if he doesn't get what he wants then he twists the neck of people and pulls out their tongue. Mama is very dangerous, very dangerous." Anakul said.

"Call your mama." Sagarika ordered.

"Surely." Dev said and went out.
