Abdul Razzaq's POV-

"Wha- what are you doing?" Her eyes were shot opened.
I quickly stood up ran my hand through my hair while looking away from her.

"Nothing, there was....a mosquito on your cheek." I cleared my throat.
"Uh...okay but why aren't you asleep?" She asked half sleeping.
" I had some work to do. You go back to sleep. " I quickly left for the couch.

Ya Allah that almost gave me a heart attack. But why am I getting so worked up about it?
I kept tossing and turning on the couch again until I finally gave up and reached for the other side of the bed.

I peeked over her to ensure she was sleeping.
I placed 4 pillows between us and I finally slept peacefully on the other side of the bed.

I woke up to find a hand wrapped around my torso.
I tilted my head to see her just an inch away from my face.
She looked like an Angel while sleeping with her soft breath caressing my lips.
I tried to get up but failed as her arms locked me.
For some reason I felt like I could live like this forever.

Just then I saw her eyes slowly opened and I quickly shot my eyes shut.
I felt her arms pull away from me firmly as I felt her getting out of the bed.

Kulsum's POV-

"You're up?" He asked in a lazy husky morning voice.
I cannot believe how close we were just a minute ago.
How could I be so careless.

"Yeah, wh-why are you sleeping here though?" I asked as my voice trembled and looked everywhere but him.
"Oh I couldn't sleep on the couch." He cleared his throat.

"Of course his highness couldn't sleep on the couch. Who asked you to offer me the bed when I was on the couch. " I rolled my eyes.

"How cruel the world is. People are so ungrateful for the favour their blessed with." He spoke with his head held high.

"Whatever..." I rolled my eyes and went inside the bathroom to perform wudu for the morning prayer.

He went to the mosque to pray Salah as I performed it in the room.

After a while I heard a knock on my door.
"Come in." I replied.
"There you are! Come let's get you all dolled up!" Aslihan chirped as she entered carrying a big bag and 4 boxes.

"What's all this?" I smiled nervously.
"Today's your walima! We need to get you ready as soon as possible. " she said excitingly.

She pulled out the most beautiful velvet gown I'd ever seen.
It was decorated with gold embroidery that went perfectly well with the royal red colour, with long frill sleeves. The diamond belt was fitted elegantly shaping the dress.

It was paired with beautiful traditional Turkish veil crown. It looked like it weighted 30 pounds.
