The Devil and the Princess
"Are you satisfied with looking at him? Or do you want to touch him as well? Huh?" Ambika continued accusing.
"W-What weird things are you spewing?" one of the girls replied, taken aback by Ambika's accusations.
"Huh? What am I saying? What are YOU doing? Staring at someone else's husband! Huh? You perverts," Ambika retorted.
"P-Pervert. You must be crazy. This woman is insane!" the girls shot back defensively.
Rudraksha intervened, stepping closer to diffuse the escalating confrontation. "Ambika, it's okay. Let's go," he said calmly.
"How dare they look at you?" Ambika yelled at Rudraksha.
Rudraksha turned his gaze towards the two girls and offered a polite apology on Ambika's behalf, signaling that it was time to move on. The girls nodded, somewhat bewildered, and walked away.
Confused by Rudraksha's response, Ambika turned to him with a furrowed brow. "Why did you apologize?"
Rudraksha looked at Ambika with amusement. "Why would you fight with them?" he countered, his tone gentle.
Ambika crossed her arms, a stubborn expression on her face. "Why would they stare at my husband?"
Rudraksha stood there, momentarily taken aback, before bursting into laughter. Soon, Ambika joined in the chuckle.
"What will I do with you?" Rudraksha shook his head while smiling at Ambika.

Rudraksha started punching Ved while family members desperately tried to intervene. Ishaan cried out, "Stop! You'll kill him!"
Ambika, sensing the danger, rushed forward and positioned herself between Rudraksha and Ved.
Ishaan, panicked, shouted, "Ambika, get back! He will hurt you!"
But Ambika stood her ground, meeting Rudraksha's gaze with unwavering determination.
Rudraksha, momentarily taken aback by Ambika's presence, hesitated mid-swing. "Rudra, please calm down" she said firmly, her voice cutting through the chaos.
Rudraksha's expression softened as he stared at his precious wife, a flicker of recognition in his eyes, his fists lowered down.
