Hii dear... Im Jessica...

I have read your story, last few chapters of the previous thread, and the two in this thread.. I really like your story... You are an amazing writer..


About chapter 19.. It was so heart touching, the way sanskar did not care about what the world would think, and just stayed close to swara.. These two are the only ones who can heal each other...


Waiting for chapter 20.. Moreover, now im going to shift to your 1st thread to read this story from the begining...

First of all sorry for my late reply.
But after reading this update I am speechless. The update was really heart touching one. All the swasan moments were beautifully written. Each sentence had it's importance. All the sequence in this update was awesome.
After that incident swara was shattered. It was a bad experience and forgot that incident was not possible for a woman. But swara's pain was clearly visible in sanskar's action. He was lost in her thoughts. He knew her. She was strong and intelligent. But this type of incident make her weak and the wounds in her heart was bleeding badly.
Sanskar is blessed with a friend like pawn. He understood his emotions. From his eyes he understood it. True friendship is a gift of God. Because in this world only few people is blessed with such a beautiful gift. True friends always read our eyes and they understand our situation.
The reunion of pawn will help sanskar into his plan.
Pawn was attacked by the robbers and he was badly injured, but he escaped from death...
And the last few sequence made me cry. 😭
The pain of swara and sanskar's helplessness...
Swara is pure soul, who always want the happiness of others. She was betrayed by her own sister, and this horrible incident, she was not ready to meet her eyes with sanskar. They avoid the eye contact.
Sanskar was crying and was asking forgiveness. And swara realized his feelings. The understanding between them is amazing
They can feel the pain of other.
And they try to heal the wounds of other. That sequence was beautifully written. 👏👏👏
But I wanted to punish Devendra for his doings. I knew after seeing swara's wounds sanskar will gave punishment to him for his doings. He deserves it.
And the title of this update was really nice.
Eagerly waiting for your next update.
Thanks for the pm


Hey Sakkiyah 🤗

My slightly late reply as explained over PM- too many plates to spin at the moment, sorry 😃

Thank you so much for your kind words and for loving this chapter so much. It was one that I really wanted to set the stage with for the next couple but due to its content, it had its own challenges as do the next ones. I am really glad you felt connected to it.

Swara was shattered but she had Sanskaar there to help put the pieces back together, and in her way she did the same for him 😳. They both are so attuned to each other, their own pain pales in front of the others and in this way, both get strength to cope in the best way possible in the circumstances.

Pawan came in good time for Sanskaar on a number of fronts. Especially now, Sanskaar and even Swara could do with a good friend- besides each other of course. But as both are hurt and broken, someone else is needed and there is now Pawan plus the other men too, and they will not judge which is what SwaSan need at this point- understanding and support.

Hmmm- Pawan wasn't badly injured- I think you mean Sushena? Yes, he is at the moment- in between life and death so the danger hasn't passed but he did manage to do what he could for his beloved Prince- a true hero in his way.

Not that I am happy you cried, but as a writer- if someone feels so moved, it is the best feeling in the world so thanks for saying that 😳. Both of SwaSan have had so much pain and betrayal- including at the hands of those they thought their own so they already had that connect and now with this terrible incident- they are bound in an irrevocable way. They do feel the pain of the other and can also heal it- in fact they are the only ones who can do that for the other:).

At the moment, it isn't about Devendra- when the time comes, things will take their course but to be totally honest, I myself haven't worked out all those details yet 😊; I want to really focus on SwaSan for now and take their relationship to its next level 😳.

I am slightly delayed due to real life commitments on 20 but will be working on it in a few hours and then it depends how long it takes; it will be up before the end of the weekend 😃

Lots of love,
Shruti x

Sakkiyah! Friends don't need all this formality of sorries and all- so as you think of yourself as friend (as I do!) please let us not have any of that! 😃 I was not hurt at all- I love the fact that you guys are so enthusiastic about the updates and the story and our discussions too 😳😃 and I am always very grateful! Please don't worry over anything like that! You have every right to ask 😆. I am working on the next update so pray it gets done in good time although it will be a late night tonight!

Love, Shruti x

Hello Jessica 🤗

Welcome to DK! I get so happy to hear from new readers and am so happy your liking the Chapters you have read so far, especially 19, which was particularly dear to me as were some others 😃. I do hope you will read the rest of the Chapters, there are some suspense angles you need to have read from the beginning from 😳. Do share if you find it interesting! And thank you very much for this!

Res 😉

Un-Res

Hey Shru...🤗 🤗

First off, please bear with me for the amount of time taken to un-res on this one. But you know the crazy schedule I've been having over past week...and that still continues, albeit in my own time zone. 😊 Hope next week would be a tad easier...

As you know, I'd read this chapter greedily right on Sunday (even before your PM) 😆, and I've read it a couple of times since then as well. As always with your work, the intensity of emotions was palpable and forceful. I particularly liked how you'd tied in the title "Your Solace, My Salvation", with the various events you described so well here.

To start off---Swara and Sanskaar in that healing, warm, comforting embrace in her tent. 😳 I remember in our detailed discussion before the previous chapter, you'd mentioned it would be a kind of lovemaking without the physical act itself. ☺️ And that came through so well. The meeting and intermingling of their souls, how Swara felt warm and cocooned in the shelter of Sanskaar's arms was so wonderful. It was to be expected that she would have nightmares and panic attacks, despite the slight opium in the soothing brew he had given her. She had been through such an immense ordeal. And it was almost poetic, the way Sanskaar soothed her with his reassuring touch and comforting voice, lulling her back to sleep. A solace for her indeed.

Sanskaar does feel that sense of salvation, of absolution in ensuring Swara's comfort, her happiness, doesn't he? Its become a credo with him now---seeping into the very marrow of his bones. He is anyway a resolute, focused man; and the depth of his own very intense feelings for her, mean that he can never know any peace of mind unless she is content. The issue is, he doesn't yet realize, that being with him, is what she wants more than anything else in the world. He does get that awareness, that heightened spark between them at some level, but is convinced that she is too pure and good hearted to be with someone like him. Sigh...two inextricably linked, but hopelessly confused souls...

And what steely self control and iron will Sanskaar possesses...he was aching to kiss and caress away her pain, all the hurt inflicted on her; but held himself back firmly. I found Swara's nightmare curiously moving, frightening as it was to her. Even in her fearful state, she feels dread at the monstrous Devendra of her nightmares harming Sanskaar, before harming her. It is his pain, as much, and likely even more than hers, which torments her... And she feels such relief when Sanskaar's voice and touch pour over her, merging in her dreams with a vision of a resurrected, brilliant Sanskaar rising like a phoenix, shielding her and slaying the demon Devendra. Very apt, Shru. 👏 👏

And that whole sequence when he roused himself early in the morning and left the tent, was awesome. The heightened awareness between both of them, as to how much they both cherished and felt so comfortable, at home, really, being enmeshed together; in what should have been formally considered a "highly inappropriate" situation! It again served to highlight how right these two are for each other, how all considerations to the contrary mean nothing in the face of what they have really come to mean to one another. They were both wistfully thinking of how their togetherness reminded them of their almost magical time at the haveli, and how they each longed to be back there, enveloped in the warmth of each others company, away from the cares and strife which plagued them now.

Swara burrowing into the slight imprint left by Sanskaar's body on the covers, feeling enveloped by his warmth and comforting touch once again, was so moving. If only she joined the dots a little further, to realize what that aching sense of loneliness means, when he is not around her! And Sanskaar, for his part, has already realized that being parted from her, even if it is handing her over to her own family, leaves him with such a crippling sense of loss. When would he realize that she feels the very same way about him? 😳

I found the whole sequence of the SwaSan--Pawan interaction quite entertaining and a lighthearted respite from the intensity. 😊 He has already realized the dynamics between the golden couple, and set to play cupid with an admirable efficiency! 😉 I loved how he literally inflamed Swara's concern over Sanskaar, by talking about how the Prince hadn't eaten a bit all morning, and had likely got his inflamed and wounded back a bit infected, what with his refusal to attend to it...And right on cue, Swara began fussing over Sanskaar and giving him much needed TLC. 😳

Pawan was really astute in picking out the reactions of both Sanskaar and Swara to the news that Sanskaar planned to send her back to safety with her family. She really doesn't want to leave Sanskaar at all---her objection to him deciding without consulting her, and sending her back with someone else instead of taking her back himself, are merely covers for the fact that she just doesn't want to leave. 😉 And poor Sanskaar---its not as if he wants her to leave him either---he is merely doing what he thinks is right for her, as opposed to what he truly wants to do---which is well---perhaps not for putting on this reply on the forum. ☺️ If only she knew what he thought, and he knew what she thought! 😆

But thanks to Pawan's astute maneuvering, (which earned him a frustrated glare from Prince Sanskaar! 😆), the golden couple get to spend some further golden moments together, tending and caring for each other again.

I really liked Swara's camaraderie with Pawan. The whole "horsey" conversation was funny and cute! And Varun, huh? 😆 Nice name for a very handsome stallion! 😉 And Pawan saying that Veer was, like his master, a tad difficult to manage was completely 🤣. But the corollary to that is, now that Veer is nuzzling Swara warmly, and getting all possessive when she as much as glances at another horse...well, when will Swara join the dots? 😉

The sequence of Swara comforting a dying Sushena was so moving, Shru. It showed so much nobility, so much strength of character for her to be there; to seek his forgiveness for insulting him when she was in the grip of misunderstanding about Sanskaar and his men's motives earlier. It wasn't really her fault, after all, he'd just been revealed to be lying about his insanity, and had kidnapped her, though it was to save her from her sister. Certainly, Sanskaar's motives at the time were suspect in her eyes, and she had lashed out. But Swara showed true perspective in realizing that her words must have stung an honorable man like Sushena. And true strength of character in now apologizing to Sushena for that---which would have meant a tremendous lot to him. For Rajputs, honor and integrity mattered above anything else, and to have this reaffirmed by such a personage as the Princess would have meant a lot to the loyal braveheart. No wonder Sanskaar's band of battle hardened soldiers thought so highly of her.

And again, Sanskaar comforting Swara, wiping her tears, and giving her that solace of his warm embrace...Even he has started wondering how his will was so strong, that he could resist kissing all her cares away. I think he ought to give up that self control, at least for a brief time! 😉 But seriously, I think it reflects his honor and uprightness that he doesn't want to, even in the slightest, make any untoward move at the time when she is so emotional, so vulnerable. Any other man perhaps, loving her as potently, as deeply as he does, would not have these qualms. But he does---and that is a testament to how deep his love his, and in what regard he holds her.

That hint of a playful banter in their talk, again referencing their time at the haveli---whether Prince Demanding would stand outside, pelting stones at the Princess Nymph's barred window; or perhaps try to storm her locked door, was really sweet. And again, the way Sanskaar tells Swara, he wants to see her old self back again---the smiling, joyous Swara, was so moving. Her happiness really is his salvation!

That last sequence---of the honorable band of bravehearts lauding Swara's valorous nature,was just splendid! It filled her with a blessed sense of peace, an additional warm shield against the memories of that vile assault which she had unfortunately blamed herself for. (The first shield, of course, being Sanskaar's words and actions; his heartfelt declaration that she must in no way hold herself responsible for the actions of a depraved, rabid beast). It also filled Sanskaar's heart with so much pride that his men saw his love for what she was! Lovely touch there.

Waiting for Chap 21 dear! I shall comment much, much faster on that one, for sure! 😉

P.S: One thing Shru...there is a small snippet in the chapter where Sanskaar plans to send word of the map to Durga Prasad, the fact that he's found the heretofore missing piece. He instructs the messenger to deliver word only to the Rana, and if he proves difficult to meet, then to obtain audience with the person he has specified. 😊 Who is that person, I wonder? Annapurna? Ram Prasad? Is this the same person of whom he spoke to Ragini, who he would ensure helped her in attaining her goal of marrying Lakshya? (In those days when she had yet to reveal her full duplicity?) So curious. 😊


Loads of Love,

---Viji
