Soon Doctor came and did a routine check up .
"She just faint because of stress I guess, it's better if she sleep a while " Doctor replied.
"Is she alright??" Karna questioned.
"Yes , she's fine, a good sleep will make it better " Doctor replied.
"Thanks a lot Doctor, " Karna replied caressing Rudrani's forhead.
Doctor nod and left .
"Why he cared about her this much !!"
Kunti mumbled near Draupadi.
"She's the Princess of Ratri and if it's true then I guess Arya can explain it better, " Draupadi replied.
Kunti and Draupadi left immediately.
Dyuti and Ruchira also left together leaving Karna all alone with Rudrani.
He sat beside the bed ,
"I'm sorry Princess, I had to bring you back here " He mumbled , he's about to leave but suddenly felt a pull .
and found Rudrani had grabbed his arm
, but she's still unconscious.
Karna tried to remove the grip but it's tight , so he decided to let it as it can break her sleep.
But he didn't noticed
Someone's stare was fixed on Karna

"What do you mean by not sure , she'll like our brother for sure , no one can reject him " Bheem uttered.
Draupadi looked down .
"Not you Panchali , Brother never loved you as well , but If he loved her than there's no way she'll reject him " Sahdev replied.
"Yes , I hope so " Arjun replied.
"But you guys will not force anyone, I mean Not Karna as well , if she doesn't Want then we'll let her go " Kunti uttered.
"Yes mother we know and I don't think brother will force her to stay as well didn't you saw earlier he let her go even without confessing his feelings " Arjun replied.

Ruchira yell .
"Don't shout , you have no rights to question me " Dyuti glared.
Ruchira glare at her as well.
"She's here for Emperor, you're as well right , you told me that day you like him" Ruchira replied.
"Ofc I do , I don't know about him , but I do but at least my first priority isn't me it's Rudrani " Dyuti replied calmly
"Why !! " Ruchira asked.
"What why !!, listen, I don't care about you , if Emperor can marry you then why not me " Dyuti replied and tried to leave .
"He'll not love you ,as I know whom he love , " Ruchira replied.
"Who ??" Dyuti questioned.
"Princess Rudrani, can't you see the concerns for her " Ruchira uttered.
"So !! She doesn't I believe , now if you stop your nonsense I'll prepare meal for Rudrani, she'll wake up soon " Dyuti replied and left .

Rudrani woke up .she found a ceiling and soon remembered what happened earlier, she tried to get up immediately but felt her hand tied with something.
She found Karna beside her bed , He's sitting on the ground arm and head is resting on the bed , she found her own grip on his hand . Heat ran through Her whole body . Red colour covers her cheeks .
Karna is sleeping peacefully. She unknowingly caressed his cheeks putting some hair away from his face .
Didn't letting her grip from his hand she lied again blushing hard .suddenly remembering the fire incident .
"He truly came to save me !! Why ?? Even knowing I came here in disguse he let me stay , when I got caught he still let me go without anything!! Why ?? What exactly is he !" Rudrani Mumbled.
Soon she fallen asleep again.
In morning Karna woke up and found her grip has loosened so he got up and left his room . Later Dyuti came to Rudrani's room to wake her up .
She found a glass of milk nearby table,
"Maybe it's for her " Dyuti mumbled and caressed Rudrani's cheeks .
Then started remembering Ruchira's words .
"I believe you'll not fall for him " Dyuti uttered.
Dyuti felt hungry she hadn't eaten anything since last night .
She picked up the milk glass .
"It will become cold when she wake up , I'll prepare another one for her " Dyuti uttered with a smile and drank the whole glass , after finishing she felt a little dizzy. Her grip loosened on the glass causing the glass fall on the ground soundly.
Rudrani opened her eyes hearing a sound, she got up , and found Dyuti who's looking unwell fall on ground.
"Dyuti !!!" Rudrani scream reaching towards her .
"Wake up Dyuti!! What happened!!" Rudrani cried .
Dyuti is not responding. She shake her a lot but no response.
