THE MIRAGE 2<br />
PROLOGUE<br />
Life is an enigma…<br />
For those who understand it, it is an intermission between two births!<br />
For those who try to, it’s an illusion!<br />
For those who fight it …it’s an eluding loop;<br />
For those who question it, it’s a riddle,<br />
But for those who live it,<br />
Its ei<strong>the</strong>r pure hell or sweet heaven!<br />
For some it’s an open book;<br />
…Yet for many, its a MIRAGE!<br />
Khushi stood staring into oblivion, her eyes showing nothingness in <strong>the</strong>m! Life has never<br />
been easy for her. Not in <strong>the</strong> past, not <strong>the</strong>n, but it never went <strong>the</strong> way it was destined to<br />
till <strong>the</strong>n.<br />
A different situation, a different turn, and an absolutely different dimension in her life!<br />
As she stood on <strong>the</strong> terrace of her ancestral house-her home-<strong>the</strong> legendary SHEESH<br />
MAHAL, with all its secrets and stories from times unknown, she imagined <strong>the</strong> first time<br />
her cries echoed in <strong>the</strong> huge corridors of a house that is actually an old fortress. …After<br />
all, her ancestors were from a royal lineage. Although fallen from wealth, for centuries,<br />
<strong>the</strong>y still preserved <strong>the</strong>ir pride and <strong>the</strong> family honour came to be of paramount<br />
importance.<br />
Now <strong>the</strong> legend she has grown up listening to, was again going to come true and in a<br />
different way of course, and she would walk towards her own destruction for her family<br />
and its honour.<br />
