After all the comments and messages I got, I've made a decision, I won't reveal it yet, everyone will know when the time gets here

It wasn't an easy decision to be made, the votes were almost equal, which I didn't expect, but I hope all my lovely readers can respect this decision when the time comes

Anyway let's get back to the story

------------------------------------------------------

3 days before the wedding

"Rajkumari, Hastinapur have accepted the invitation to your wedding" the dasi informed

"What do you mean accepted the invitation? We didn't send an invitation to them"

"I don't know Rajkumari" the dasi said and left as per Uttara's order

Everyone recived the same information, and were now looking for eachother to see who sent an invitation, with all the Pandavas, except Yudhistr, Draupadi, Uttara, Abhimanyu, Uttar, and Virata ending up in the throne room looking for answers

"Why would someone invite Hastinapur?" Uttara asks

"I won't even let them inside" Uttar says

"I won't let that Lakshman come near Devi" Abhimanyu said

More and more questions filled the room until Yudhistr came and put a stop to them

"I invited Hastinapur" Yudhistr says causing Uttara to clench her fists, which Abhimanyu quickly notices and holds her wrist to make her unclench them

"They are our brothers, we have to invite them" Yudhistr continues

"Jyesht, if they really were our brothers we wouldn't be in Matya desh, you would be in Hastinapur as king, Prativindhya would be Yuvaraj, but instead we are in Matya desh, ready to fight a war, and if you forgot Draupadi hates all of them and Uttara hates Lakshman" Arjun says

"I understand Arjun, but it is our Dharm"

"Taatshree is right, regardless of who they are, they are our relatives" Uttara says "Just guests like everyone else coming to the wedding" Uttara turns to the dasi "When are they coming?"

"They are going to come one day before the wedding"

"You don't know about them Uttara, one day is enough for them to hurt everyone" Sahadev says

"Kakashree, even if they want to they can't Matya desh has the best warrior in the aryaverth with them" Uttara says thinking about herself, and Abhimanyu and Uttar smile knowing Uttara is talking about herself

"Yes, we have my Putr" Draupadi says making the three children confused "Abhimanyu is the best warrior in the aryaverth" Draupadi says proudly

"Yes, my Arya is one of the best warriors" Uttara says "But my sister's the best" Uttar whispers to Uttara

2 days before the wedding

"Madhu!!!" Uttara says as she goes to hug her friend "Uttara!!!" Madhu replies back

"Only hugs for Madhu, not for us?" Geeta and Anjali ask

"Everyone gets hugs" Uttara says hugging all her friends

"Uttara why don't you introduce your fiancee" Anjali asks

"Why? So you can look at his handsomeness?" Uttara says

"I just want to meet him I have my eyes on someone else" Anjali replies

"Who is this someone else?" Uttara asks

"That one right over there, Anjali can't take his eyes off him" Geeta responds pointing at one of the Upapandavas

"Which one? Sutasoma?"

"I don't know the one standing at the end"

"That's Shrutakarma, Anju get ready to call me Jiji" Uttara says laughing

"It's better than being called Jiji by you, we all know you reject being controlled by people who have more power than you, but Geeta is over here falling for the future Yuvaraj himself" Anjali says

"Rajkumar Prativindhya, good choice Geeta, what about you Madhu, are you falling for any of the princes?" Uttara asks but Madhu doesn't respond and her gace is fixed on Shantinika

"Rajkumar Shantinika, your Mamashree Nakul's son" Uttara says observing Madhu's gaze

Rajkumari Madhu was from Madra, and her aunt was Rajkumari Vijaya, Sahadev's other wife

"Pranipaat Mamashree Nakul and Sahadev" Madhu greets the twins

"Pranipaat?" They say slightly confused

"Kakashree, she Rajkumari Madhu, Rajkumari of Madra, your neice" Uttara said

"Oh my god, Madhu, you've grown up so much, did your Bua come?" Sahadev asked intently

"No Mamashree, Bua and Suhotra are on some official Madra bussiness, but they are coming for the wedding"

Shantinika who was also interested in Madhu "Pitashree who is this?"

"She's Vijaya Mata's neice, Yuvaraj Sahesh's daughter"

"Pranipaat Rajkumari-"

"Just Madhu is fine, Shantinika" Madhu says

"Come girls, we need to have Uttara's Haldi ceremony" Sudeshna said

"Sudeshna Mata-" Abhimanyu says

"Abhimanyu, I know your question and you know my answer" Sudeshna said

"There's no harm in trying"

All the girls go and apply Haldi to Uttara covering her face

"When you get married I'll do the same thing" Uttara said

"Who said you were invited to my wedding?" Geeta says

"Yeah you're right, I don't need an invitation, as the first Kuru Kulavadhuvu I can attend your wedding or who knows, I can reject you too, then you can't marry your precious Pativindhya" Uttara teases

"Quietly Uttara, Samragni will hear you" Geeta says

"Let her, she'll know who her future daughter-in-laws will be"

"Who cares who her future daughter-in-laws are Uttara will always be her favorite" Anjali says

"Of course she will" Draupadi, who just came in, said "I can have 5 more daughter-in-laws but Uttara is Abhimanyu's wife, and she will always be my favorite"

Uttara takes a bath because she is covered in haldi and wears a blue lehenga

After a while all the girls in the palace were dancing, while Arjun, Sahadev and Virata were discussing something in another room and beautiful laughter fills the whole palace

"Maharaj what is that laughter? It feels like the person is right next to me" Arjun says

"That's you daughter-in-law's laugh Rajkumar, when she was younger I never had time to see her, I wanted to hear her laugh anywhere I was, so I asked Mayasura for help, he added pathways so I could hear Uttara's laughs from anywhere in the palace"

While dancing the princes also join in with all the pincesses of different kingdoms all with dandiya sticks

"Arya, what is the point of dance, it makes you look graceful and beautiful, what is the point of it" Uttara teases Abhimanyu and starts running encouraging Abhimanyu to catch her

Just then Virata leaves Arjun and Sahadev and goes to the main room

Abhimanyu in an attempt to catch Uttara ends up pulling the portion of Uttara's saree that was over her shoulder, but Uttara noticing Abhimanyu's mistake holds the saree on her shoulder preventing it from falling

"ABHIMANYU" Arjun yells, as he sees this, scaring both Abhimanyu and Uttara
