Ch 13 String of Pearls Now UPDATED--several posts down!

Teaser:

Pack your bags everyone, as we travel to the far reaches of a vast desert..

The sand dunes..the scorching heat..the fluttering of the tents..the chilly nights..

Khushi: an innocent, beautiful woman leaving Lucknow for the first time.

ASR: a man who loves his land fiercely, but knows the only way to save it is with aggression.

They were never meant to meet.

But they did.

Sweet innocence meets savage masculinity.

Will Khushi give in to the overwhelming passion this man brings out in her?

Will ASR become Arnav for her?

Will they ignore the love blooming between them or fall under its heady spell?

To find out, read Desert Heat..


New Readers:You will find the prologue and all chapters thus far at my blog (link on my profile page); it's a lot easier than going thru threads.

DH Readers: Thread #7!!😲 And only 11 chapters! Desert Heaters are record breakers for me. Period To put it into perspective, Shameless only had 9 threads and this one is only 25% done. Keep up the love for this arhi--they're on the cusp of love and need all the support they can get😳

Scroll down for Ch 13 String of Pearls!!!!!

~UPDATED--with Zara details~

Khushi Kumari Gupta-- Sanaya Irani

An innocent, stunning 18 year old whose once vibrant spirit and spunk has diminished following her parent's ill-fated deaths. Yet the embers of her courage and strength still remain burning. Will a certain Raizada awaken her in all ways? Will he show her the heights of passion and love?


Arnav Singh Raizada--- Barun Sobti

Known as the 'Dark Prince' 25 year old ASR is brooding, rugged, and uttterly masculine as he carries the weight of an old legacy and the responsibility of the north reaches on his lone shoulders. He's been focused on a single mission since childhood, but will a certain girl change everything? Will she show him that there is more to life than pain and hardship--something beautiful and magical?


Nani--- Jayshree T.

ASR's only real family. As his grandmother, she has not only shaped him into the man he is, but also provided him with constant guidance. She is known throughout the north reaches for aiding all those who seek her help. Caring and resilient, she has witnessed much through her aged eyes and knows best what her 'Chote' needs--even if he does not.


Aman--Shaleen Bhanot

Arnav's closest friend and Old Mathur's youngest nephew. He has been alongside ASR on every adventure in the desert. Considerate and sincere, he is a devoted friend and advisor.


Maya--Drashti Dhami

Straightforward and mystical, Maya is known by many names: healer, psychic, witch.. But for Khushi, she is simply a true friend. Maya has not so secretly loved Aman since childhood. Now if only the thickheaded, bearded man would accept her wholeheartedly: magic, gifts, love and all..


Taj--Karan Wahi

Mischievous and carefree, Taj is the youngest member of ASR's group at age 19. His jokes and stories liven up the trail. He is also quite popular with the ladies of Rajasthan, although not as much as the Dark Prince (but he's working on that:)


Imran--Iqbal Khan

Another of the men: Imran is quiet and reflective, and has stories of his own to tell. Earn his trust and he might just reveal something interesting..

Zara--Shilpa Anand

The woman some would say Imran betrayed almost cruelly on the eve of their wedding. Yet she holds no bitterness, loving and understanding him despite everything--including the mocking she daily faces. Zara has been waiting for over five years now and yet her faith has never wavered. Imran will return to her if her love is true, she believes.. And this time, she will never let him go.


Raj--Karanvir Bora

Known for his no-nonsense attitude, Raj is Taj's older brother and the one most fervently involved in the group's mission. His ultimate dream is to see Aakash and Shyam destroyed and ASR in his rightful place.


Sia--Krystal D'Souza

A gypsy girl with a fiery attitude, a startling aim, and boundless love for Raj. Maya's friend from childhood, she's known widely for her quick temper and sharp tongue. But if you understand her, you'll see that she's just a simple girl with some unfulfilled dreams.


Akash Singh Raizada--Akshay Dogra

As the so-called 'HRH Maharaja of Raizada,' Aakash is pompous and reckless. Raised in a world of unfathomable luxury unlike his older half-brother, he is used to getting his way. Khushi, Arnav, and the gang have all earned his wrath.


Manorma Singh Raizada--Utkarsha Naik

Loud and ambitious, Manorma was once a lowly courtesan who rose to become Anil Singh Raizada's second wife. She loves her high position in the palace.


Shyam Jha--Abhaas Mehta

Cunning, smart and manipulative; some would say Shyam is more in tune with the changing landscape of Rajasthan than his best friend, Aakash.

Aarti Gupta--Divyanka Tripathi

Aarti was Khushi's young mother who tragically died long ago through no fault of her own. She doted on her young daughter and was expecting her second child (as prologue hints). Her old payals (anklets) are Khushi's most cherished possessions.


Ram Kumar Gupta--Mohit Raina

Khushi's father always placed his family's well-being above everything. Sadly, he could not change fate and died at a young age along with his beloved wife. Khushi has fond memories of his loving nature and infectious laughter.


Aunt (Diya Pratap)--Eva Grover

Cruel and manipulative, she is the true 'viper,' a name she so often calls her neice. She deeply resents her dead sister, Aarti Gupta, and that hatred was passed onto innocent Khushi, dampening her spirit.


Uncle--Deepak Qazir

A banker by profession, he loves his gold and investments first and foremost, followed by his wife, Diya and daughter, Simran.


Simran--Ashnoor Kaur

Sweet and angelic, 10 year old Simran was raised by Khushi more than her own parents. She loves her dear cousin and tutor very much and is waiting for the day they reunite.

Nafisa Aunty--Waheeda Rehman

The matriarch of the Khan family, Nafisa Aunty saw Khushi raised from birth and loved her like a grand-daughter. Has a well-known love for kheer.


Lavanya--Sana Khan

The beautiful gypsy girl that has always had an eye for ASR.

Old Mathur-- Kulbhushan Kharbanda

Arnav's dead mother's oldest and most loyal servant. He moved to the north reaches with his family when the new heir was named. He also happens to be Aman's great-uncle.

(note: more characters will be added as story continues)

(note 2: notice no Anjali..sry Anjali-fans but she was annoying me in the real show when I wrote this so I deleted her character)

Firstly,this time

Thanku and this time to kehna banta hai

dedicating this update to me really means a lot to me.

bcoz its was holi which i adored in the show and each scene is like etched in the heart.

and DH which has turned out to be hugely special to me .

Its a story about two people both fighting their own battles,never really had someone to call their own and finally finding their other half,the missing parts of each other.

A man and having two sides to him each entirely differnt to another.

He is ASR all focussed and utmost dedicated to his goal and like arjun in mahabharat he is only seeing what his eyes are set at leaving no stone unturned to fulfill it.

Then there is ARNAV which is only reserved for KHUSHI,his biggest nightmare which unnnerved him and shook him to bits but he is a man of his words,he is doing everything in his possession to protect khushi.

Somehow unknowingly he has given KHUSHI what she never got,the power of making decisions herself and the way he trusts her that she can do anything she wishes too yielding an new found confidence in her.

Aman is truly ARNAV'S right hand man,his tricks and the dialouges used even it took him in surprise

bt what was adorable was Khushi's reaction to it,she cant bear to see him hurt even if that meant in a way that was unharming.

thats love.

When i said you made me love ASR even more if possible.

first he tempts her,he knew she is as affected as he is still bounded by her values and thinking and then strikes her into a sword fight applying the technique knowing she wld be affected

and when the defense mechanism slows down,he attacks .

Khushi finally admitted out loud what her heart had done ages ago but voicing the feelings has its own effect.

Arnav still didnt do anything even when he knew he can do anything he wished for but he respects her.

and that is why he wanted her to set the pace of their relationship,she shld come to him willingly giving her engh power of her own femininty.

Aman and Taj are adorable.i so wish maya makes an apperance again and charm aman out.

they are friends to khushi and have comfortable like they were always a prt of them.

I loved how you made khushi dressed here as she was in the show

and that blissful moment

two people in love and just that one touch of love spreading the color of love on each other.

and as khushi said"THERE CAN BE NOTHING IMMORAL IN THIS"

because TRUE LOVE IS PURE!!!!!!!!!!

Arnav for first let go of his tough facade and was laughing probably happy after ages with his happiness by his side.

and there the protector everytime shielding her from every harm.

Khushi has now first seen hand his rage and a side she has never witnessed.

But Arnav has his own reasons,he cant bare any evil eye on her and he was right to loose it,
still they both need to talk it out ,she needs to understand and accept this part of him too.

Raj's entry was like a true saviour at the right time and he cant believe that the great ASR fell in love in two weeks.

well Imran,Aman and Taj have witnessed their love blooming first hand,they havent admiited thats a different thing.

but two weeks is a long time love can happen in just that one moment and two weeks is a long time.

literally loved everything!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fantastic,awesome,mindblowing chap

This was just beautiful
poor Khushi, she felt scared by the thought of losing Arnav... It was really awesome... The way Arnav consoled Khushi n the moments bw them were damn beautiful

Arnav said child to Khushi n nw he has to control himself or suffer i think for telling that word🤣🤣

I'm loving this gang a lot... Nw Raj n Sia.. This gang is just cool n awesome...
Hope Aman will be kind towards Maya nw... Poor Maya, she's trying her best to make him fall for her...

Poor Imran, his story is really emotional...
Zara is still waiting for Imran... Hope they will at least meet once so that they wont part again in future...
