A/N:

Firstly, I apologize for the unforgivable delay in posting this epilogue. I have never made my readers wait this long for an update before, and I hate to do this to you this time. The past couple of weeks have been crazy with a combination of writer's block, fever, and a demanding asli duniya that gave me virtually no time to write the Epilogue. But I have finally managed to finish most of it, and here it is.

Before posting the update, I just wanted to share a few thoughts about this story.

First, a secret: I've never really been a fan of the supernatural/paranormal romance genre either. I really don't know why or how, but this story just popped into my head one day and just wouldn't leave me alone!

The only inspiration was the tag-line, and Sheesh Mahal, which was barely utilized in the show.

The supernatural isn't something I believe in. However, I also believe that science doesn't have all the answers yet. Unexplained mysteries are not uncommon, and we can only speculate about their origins.

But at the end of it all, this has been an incredible journey for me.

Thank you all for allowing me to weave this fantasy, and thank you again for suspending disbelief and staying with me so far.

A special thanks for your patience when the updates were delayed.

Your 'Likes' , scraps, PMs and comments have been motivating and inspiring me throughout, and I am so grateful that I have wonderful readers like you all!

And before I end this note, a word about my upcoming stories. I will be writing my last Tale for the ArHi Tales: Khwahishein series within the next couple of weeks . I do hope to see you there!

As for another SS, I have received a very interesting challenge from a friend. She wants me to attempt a story where there is no mystery, no dark past...and no cliffhangers!

And since I cannot resist a challenge , I have decided to take her up on it. However since my asli duniya still continues to be as demanding as ever, I can only promise one weekly update .

Once I have finalized the plot, I will be back with another story and hopefully you will join me on another thread, in another world starring Arnav and Khushi.

Until then, Merry Christmas everyone, and Happy New Year in advance!

-Juhi.

Epilogue

Part 1:

Aadrita is a beautiful name; the girl has been rightfully named with her being the apple of everyone's eye in her family. But before I talk more about her, I'll go to the beginning of the chapter...

I liked the way you opened the epilogue; Seduction has always had the sense of mystique and mystery in it and it was seen in the newspaper article as well. The newspaper might not have had any success in its speculations but I think the party marks the celebration of restorement of normalcy and happiness in the lives of Raizadas and the extended family; after all for everyone, things are looking great, both on the professional and the personal front.

Back to Aadrita. I loved how you showed things through her perspective; may it be the values instilled into her by Khushi, her thoughts about her mother as also the understanding that she possess, being a seven year old girl. It added a different layer altogether to the chapter and I'm glad you provided the girl a greater space.

It was heartening to know Anjali have a life partner not just for namesake but one who truly fulfils the meaning that the termination adjoins to itself. that said, I wonder how she could have been able to stay without satisfying the curiosity regarding Khushi. Also the fact about Aadrita; something tells me that the change in her behavior had everything to do with the breaking of the curse.

From the fight against fate that Arnav and Khushi had have to undergo to their current state of blessitude, only because the two would never give up on their love is so stirring. It was a poignant moment when Arnav ran his hand through Khushi's abdomen, as also the part whenh both their gazes were diverted towards the blue room...

For a change, I shall say that being someone who gets exasperated (the blame goes to you) by your cliffhangers, I don't mind one for today. If it is a cause for delaying the end of seduction, we shall gladly accept one.😊

Part 2:

I love for a fact that you made Aadrita the heroine of the second part of the epilogue. For me she was the perfect mix of the attributes her parents possessed. Fortitude, the underlying determination, the fearlessness, her efforts to make her father not have to continue suffering from the inevitable separation and then the ultimate risk she undertook.

Of course it was innocence which was supposed to overcome the curse, but we never did focus on the part wherein 'dare' was concerned. And while the child had no idea about the solution, it was just the sheer endeavor that did the difference; another evidence of the innocence playing a major factor.

With the painting gone, the Raizadas have nothing to clutch them towards the entrapment of a hundred years, and we have a happy ending.

For someone who is not a fan of the genre, your indulgement in writing a story on those lines never did gave a whiff of it.

Bring on the next tale already!

Dearest J,
The sweetest epilogue ever!
It is always a pleasure to read your writing, life feels strangely incomplete when I don't.
So there is the hugest smile on my face right now.
1. I loved the news article and how dr Raizada refused to "confirm or deny" any rumours! M just ROFL
2. I loved yet another successful "business name" you gave AR! 👏 (NS!)
3. I loved that you spoke about Arnav and his career! And as always came up with the most amazing SOLUTION Eva! 👏 (NS!)
4. I loved to hear about what Kay has been upto in her career! And the NGO "Akash"
5. I loved that aman is an absolute sweetheart like I excepted him to be and than he is still the CEO! And I love that aman and Arnav are two men who NEVER give up! Persistence ki jai ho :) kind of reminds me of all those months ago and LLATW! When I kept repeating how I loved the persistent ASR! Full circle and all just like this news article
6. I loved that we got to hear Anjali's story first..and what a life! I am just happy that things are finally working out for her. If there is EVER a character made to be a mother it's Anjali, so I definitely can imagine her being totally bummed about it! So glad se had aman and chanced about this orphanage! I have an AD story for u! Oh and what do I even say about her love for adarita!
7. I loved that LAVA AND NK are BACK!!!!!! EBP. That was the bestest, especially the teasing ;)
8. I loved Adarita and the beautiful young lady she is turning out to be! I loved to see part of this journey through her eyes! The values, the bangles and the adoration for her mommy.
9. I loved that it's Dr RAIZADA now!
10. I loved that he is back and he is teasing and carrying bridal style his very pregnant wife!
11. I loved that the lakeside is hereee!!!!! The place where SKDs are made!!!!!!!! Apart from obviously wherever adarita was made ;)
12. I loved Kay is apprehensive about being a good hostesses!
13. I loved that there is YET another reason to embrace bright clothes! *i bow down to thy genius*
Most of all "love is enough" :) :) :) :) :)

Res-ing is a serious business.

UnRes
This was amazing J. Let me first confess that I didn't realise the cure until Aadrita said she has Lakshmiji with her. You have kept the secret brilliantly.
Btw Aadrita is a beautiful name with a beautiful meaning.
Anjali found her happiness and love in aman. finding a person who is truly your soulmate is difficult and I'm glad she was able to. Aman is a man who not only loved her but also waited for her, whenever she needed time. Oh and this suddenly makes me realise that both men in this story keep waiting for their love. But not anymore. Khushi is free from the curse and Anjali too decided after taking months that she wants to spend her whole life with Aman.
Love doesn't come easy. Arnav, Khushi faced ups and downs searching for the cure for years. How easy and how difficult it was actually!!
Innocence truly dared. I don't know if Payal had thought about it but I'm just glad that the curse had some cure. How difficult it would be otherwise not to be happy, when you know happiness would be followed by separation all the time.
Juhi take a bow!!! You have done a splendid job with seduction. I didn't mind being seduced for a single moment, it was so much fun though I had to rake my brain after every update. 😆😆

Waiting to see you again with a new story for Khwaishein and another one with no mystery & cliffhangers. Now you would know how difficult it is for us to deal with cliffhangers when we are not habitual of it. 😆😛

Res. Res. Res
----------------------------------------

1. Sexpel! First, Merry Christmas to you and your family. May it be happy and joyful! May there be loads of cake and chocolate for you!
2. Epilogue is here!
3. I love their daughter's name. It's beautiful!
4. The curse is no more! Yay! Happy ending!!! Don't know how they got that yet, but happy ending makes me happy!
5. Anjali and Aman are married. I liked how you spoke about how they struggled with a long distance relationship, but were still able to make it work.
6. So Arnav isn't a practicing doctor, but is still doing something related to medicine. It's nice to see how he has come to terms with what he is doing.
7. They are such an adorable family!
8. Also, lake! He was waiting for her at the lake. I love that place so so much.
9. And, their seventh anniversary. Fireworks!
10. Oh, I also loved the fact that he woke up and was in a bad mood because his wife and daughter were away. I mean how ridiculously adorable is that?
11. See you with more later!

On a completely unrelated note, well not unrelated at all, just saying, anyway, I am so super glad that you are writing another story. I can't wait.

See you later, alligator!

Part 2

12. Hope your Christmas was awesome!
13. I can't tell you how very glad I am to have signal, just so that I could read part 2.
14. The little stuffed lamb called lakshmi Ji is inspired!
15. "Innocence can dare". Wow, everyone thought being pregnant was what would do the trick, but it was the pure, unconditional love of a child that was required.
16. So well written. Like always.
17. Also, that Payal was unbelievably mean. I mean the only cure for the curse was one that no one would have thought of, and even if they did, it couldn't be forced. I mean talk about being vindictive.
18. I love their daughter!
19. I also love how you highlighted Arnav finding it difficult to deal with everything. It's only natural.
20. I guess sometimes you can have all the love in life and not be happy, and then sometimes love is all you need!
21. Thank you for writing this! I love you!
22. Bring on the next story!
23. Seduction ki jay!
24. Brilliant work!
25. :D
