A week had passed peacefully since Riya's wedding with no fighting between Shana and Vihaan.
Even though Shana still could not sleep without a bra.She had tried to but the day she had removed it and had acted normal, Vihaan had looked at her as if he knew she was naked beneath her t-shirt and she could not handle more.So, yes, she was going to continue wearing it till she could be confident enough to handle his intense gaze.But she could notice a difference in Vansh.He was no longer the same person any more and no matter how many times Shana would ask him, his reply would be the same."I am absolutely fine, Shana. Don't worry about me at all."But Shana knew something was going on as Vihaan would always ignore her talks whenever she would enquire about Vansh.The same was with Saaransh.Even though, either Viha"Vansh will text you once we are done" reading the message from Avni, Shana looked around the room while sitting on the edge of the bed in Pyjama and t-shirt.Her phone beeped again and she read the new message" once you receive the message, come with Vihaan to the lawn."It was eight in the evening and an hour for Vihaan to be home and yet she had no idea how to make him busy enough to forget to go to the lawn.Vihaan had the habit of going to the lawn for fifteen or twenty minutes every day after dinner or during his late-night calls with his foreign clients.And Shana along with Vansh, Avni and Anubhav has chosen to organise the party on the lawn. It was the best place as it was behind the mansion where they can decorate without any resistance.Senior Rathores along with grandma were aware of the plans but none of the trio, ie Avni, Anubhav and Vansh found them capable of making Vihaan
Shana was no longer drunk or rather could act anymore.She was not drunk when Vihaan had entered and she had addressed him 'hubby' or when she had caressed his forearm or when she had stopped going outside by his wrist.But she did not want to stop all those lovely moments she had been sharing with him on pretence.She wanted to feel the claim on him, wanted to feel how it feels to be his wife, wanted to know the feeling and emotions she would have on touching him with no rules and regulations.Just love.It was not she was fooling him, she had gulped down some alcohol but had been unable to drink it and she had rushed into the bathroom.But then an idea struck or maybe because of the little drink she had, she thought of giving it a chance.Lying under him, feeling every inch of him, fitting well in his body as If she could not fit more, Shana could no
"You have my name tattooed on your heart?" shocked evident in his voice, heart beating with surprise, happiness and maybe love, Vihaan kept looking at Shana.His mind and heart were still digesting the fact Shana's skin had his name, his original name 'Vihaan' engraved on her skin.The mere thing was proclaiming her as his and all he wanted was for her to accept him as hers.He wanted to know the answers to many questions creating chaos in his mind. He wanted to know why she had his name on her heart when she did not want to accept him.A year ago, when he had seen 'Saar' on her back, he had been so jealous, he wanted to confront her at the moment.He wanted to speak the truth, without hiding anything. He wanted to clear all the misunderstandings of their past during their teenage, wanted to know whose name it was.But he could not.Over time, he had n
She got distracted when she saw Anubhav and saw him walking toward Vihaan."Happy Birthday bro" wishing him, Anubhav give him a side hug.Thanking him, Vihaan hugged him back but his eyes were searching for Shana.And then he found her looking at him.He heard Anubhav" Finally, we managed to surprise you" but his eyes filled with sadness the moment he heard " We knew only Shana can prison you to your room."And it confirmed his doubt, Shana was faking it.................................."Have you called Saaransh to know when will he be there?" Avni enquired while placing the pizza box on the table along with five wine glasses."He did not pick up the call" helping Avni, and Vansh pours fruit juice into the wine glasses.None of them was taking risk of drinking alcohol or wine or any such sort in front of Shana.
"Thank you" feeling the soft and fine texture of the silk white shirt in his hands, he kept looking at her as if it was the best gift he had ever seen.He did not even see his name written on the cuff, he already knew Shana had made it herself."Wow! You made it yourself?" Avni spoke up as soon as she realised it was from "Grace designing".Shana could only smile mildly.Her attention was solely on Vihaan, wanting to know if he loved it."It's truly beautiful" admiring it as if it was the most precious and valuable thing he had in possession, he did not want to let it go for a single second."Come on, show us how it looks on you" Anubhav spoke."Later" he wanted to show it to only Shana..........................Retiring to the room, Vihaan kept his eyes on Shana walking in front of him in the
"Swear on me you didn't lie" gaping at her lying next to him on their bed, Vihaan spoke sleepily.It was past seven in the morning and yet he did not want to leave the bed. He was sleepy and wanted just to relax and talk to her while taking a nap.Which was happening, luckily."Lie about what?" Without opening her eyes, Shana responded.She was deep in her sleep.And yet her heart felt the warmth and melody of his sleepy voice.She loved it. It was damn sexy and sweet at the same time.And maybe that's why she even responded so she could hear more of his sleepy voice.Turning himself fully toward her, he adjusted the pillow and now looking completely at her sleepy form, answered " About my touch.""What about it?" Feigning ignorance to the butterfly that just erupted in her stomach, she calmly questioned.Knowing very well what was it
Sitting in the wooden chair on the lawn of the Rathore mansion, enjoying and feeling the cool breeze of air, listening to the chirping of birds, and watching the movements of trees and leaves, Shana was engrossed in her thoughts.It was five in the morning and the yellowish sky was indicating the sunrise.She had been sitting since four in the morning, sleep far away from her.All over the night she wanted to call Vihaan and ask about his well-being.It had been a day since she had heard his voice.But the stubborn side of her was against it.It wanted more time.But her heart was desperate for it.And she realised she had been addicted to him and his voice.Was not it the first step of falling for someone?Or maybe second or third."Ughh" coming out of her thoughts, she stood
Shana slept like never.She was so relieved and relaxed after merely texting with him, she was no more anxious or sad about anything.Or did not feel like an empty vessel.Sleeping till eight in the morning, she had woken up hurriedly knowing she had been late for the office.She was the leader of all the projects in the absence of Vihaan and that required her presence even more."Sorry guys" entering the meeting room in white pants paired with a maroon crop, messy bun and diamond earrings, she took her seat.Placing the phone on the table, taking the file placed on the table, she turned the pages of it to read and turning her attention to one of the employees of the collaborated team, enquired"What's the progress?"The team consisted of eleven people, six from her team and five from Vihaan's company.They had signed a contract
Lying on their bed, she watched him, removing the tie, and unbuttoning his shirt, and then suddenly he stopped.The action did not go unnoticed, and immediately, Shana looked at him.And found him looking at her."Always Look at me," he demanded as soon as their eyes met."I am already looking at only you," Shana replied emphasising on 'you', and her eyes reached to his manhood again.Shana took a long breath as soon as his hands touched his belt.All the curiosity, anxiety, and excitement made their way, and she could feel the sweating make the way.She had touched and had felt him, but now she was going to see it.As if he could sense, he spoke," Are you sure?" Even though his heart was praying, " Please don't say 'No'"."Are you going to torture me in slow motion, " Shana was restless now."Ha
"What?" Vihaan almost stammered.And he broke the kiss, not because he wanted to, though. He looked at her, shock written all over his face.Did he just hear Shana correctly?Shana hesitated. Was Vihaan not ready anymore for her?But the kiss did not seem like it. It had the same passion."Nothing," and she blurts out with disappointment, lacing her voice."Shana...please repeat what you said?" Vihaan just wanted to hear her say once more.He had wanted to hear it for such a long time that he was not sure he was even hearing it.Lifting her chin, making her eyes meet his, Vihaan spoke again," Please, just once."His pleading but love-loaded eyes and his thumping heart answered the one Shana was searching for, and she whispered the magic words again," Love me, Vihaan."Tick tick tick
Ascending the stairs, Shana knew it was a turning night in her life.Vihaan had never left a party like it ever.And she was confused.No way, Vihaan had left the party simply because saaransh had danced with her.And the voice of Vihaan rang in her mind, " One touch of another man on your skin and trust me, you will never forget this night.""He was not serious about it." speaking to herself, she tried calming herself.She was so engrossed she hardly heard Vansh's footsteps beside her."Good night, beautifool" Stopping at the first floor, Vansh looked at her.Shana smiled tight lips, her eyes on the second floor, her heart beating fast, in excitement and desire.Waving goodbye to Vansh, she hurriedly ascended the stairs and halted in front of the door to their bedroom.Calming her running heart,
Everything was going well. Since the arrival of Vihaan, Shana could hardly feel any gaze. And the party was going great. As it was for only closed ones, it hardly had thirty to forty people. The food, the music, the aura, everything was perfect. "I think it will be a girl" Sipping the soft drink, Shana spoke, her eyes filled with love looking at Avni's belly. She was standing in the middle of the party hall with Vansh, Avni and Anubhav. "I think it would be a boy" Vansh spoke next. "Come on! I can tell you it will be a girl" Caressing her belly, Avni glared at Vansh. "Ofcourse, even I want a girl" Joining Avni, Anubhav continued" Imagine having a little image of you. That would be so beautiful" and he was dreamy now. Shana was enjoying t
Shana was sitting in front of the dressing table, her pinkish-round face glowing.Not with any makeup, but with shyness, excitement and nervousness.Her greenish silk saree with a backless blouse and the emerald necklace adoring her petite and creamy neck were not making her less prettier.And she realised people saying green is her colour were not liars.She was glad to choose green, for she wanted to look pretty. The feminine in her was urging her to look beautiful, for herself and for Vihaan.She knew something had changed, maybe not just something but everything.She now wanted to wear gorgeous sarees and dresses and wanted to look mesmerizing every time.And her expectations of herself were so much, she could not even decide which lipstick to apply.Her heart as usual wanted red, but her eyes and mind were urging her to go to pink.And vihaan lying on the bed, his hands supporting his head was not helpful at all.Instead, like always he was increasing her heartbeats and regrets.
Shana might not have forgiven him, but she would answer him ,whenever he would ask her anything.But that was it.Days passed and it was one fine day.Avni and anubhav have visited them and all except Vihaan were sitting in the lobby, enjoying the sunset and cool Breeze while enjoying the coffee.Vihaan was as usual in his office, he had some important meetings with the international client.But he had promised Avni he would be with them as soon as the meeting will be over.Sipping the coffee while gossiping , Avni spoke up, gaining everyone's attention on her"I have something to share with you."And she had everyone's attention.She looked nervously at everyone and then her gaze halted at Anubhav who was sitting beside her on the sofa.Out of her habit, Shana was noticing her body language and she noticed Avni's p
Two days passed and it was already Sunday.Neither Shana nor Vihaan had any plans, but the rest of the Rathores had already departed to one of their relatives.Since it was one of her favourites, Shana took her time to wake up.She had no obligation to wake up early and to rush to the office.She had inner plans though.She wanted to wake up late, have a bath, have brunch and then she wanted to dedicate her time to writing.It was killing her to know she had not written a single line for a long time.Waking up at ten in the morning, she was out of her room after half an hour.She had not taken a bath yet, she was craving for some strong coffee.Still in her sleep, she descended the stairs to reach Vansh's floor and the thought of having a glimpse of him made her walk toward his room.Knocking, sh
Good morning" Trying to meet her eyes, Vihaan spoke while sitting at the breakfast table.It was not exactly morning; it was ten in the morning, and they both were late for the office.Or, Vihaan was deliberately late as he was waiting for Shana to at least look at him.He was completely sober, even if he was not, he was not going to show it.The thought of the night was a nightmare for him and he did not want to ruin the present day.But it looked like it had.He felt Shana ignoring him completely, and once done with the breakfast, he followed her back to his room.Closing the door, he walked toward Shana and lightly grabbing her elbow, made her turn towards him."Please look at me" Lifting her chin with his index finger; he was like a lost puppy.Shana did not glance at him."I am sorry, Shana"
Tick tick tick....The second hand of the wall clock was increasing her heartbeat with every strike and she was becoming more anxious.Now she was concerned about him. It might have been normal for her to pretend to be okay in front of the members of the family when they had asked about Vihaan and she had replied" He will be late."But, now when she was alone, and time was passing at a fast pace, she was worried.All she wanted was for him to be in front of her.Lurching up from the bed, she stood up and picking the phone from the table, she had just dialled his number when she heard the bell ringing outside the door of the room.And the next second, she heard the knob of the door turning.She had never been so relieved as she was a the moment and she almost ran forward to hug him.But, then she stopped and all the anxiousness, worri
