Anna stared after him as if she could hardly believe what just happened. Her heart was beating, and her lips felt dry. Still, she couldn’t stop wailing her eyes out, 'mamma...' She called for her mother again, crying bitterly for hearing those rude words from her husband on the first night itself. She has not bothered him this time then why he needs to lash out his anger on her always.After a long time, her cries subsided, but she did not sleep. She only stared wide-eyed into the darkness until it was almost dawn.….Neil squeezed his eyes tight, battling the internal emotional tug of war. Anna's naively lovely face appeared in his mind's eye. He could almost feel her soft palms caressing his strong chest.She had sparked a flame as old as time itself, leaving him with a gnawing desire that would not go away.He wasn't sure when sleep invaded his space because he was thinking about her.He looked up at the blazing sun. When he realises where he was resting, he spreads his arms. He go
Anna entered, looking down, and collided straight into his hard chest, which was wet due to the shower."Sorry …" She murmured and stepped back.Neel fumed, but seeing her in traditional wear, he couldn’t stop admiring her.His direct, openly admiring gaze was having the most devastating effect on her. All her bones seemed to be melting, and she had the most absurd desire to lean towards him, to reach out a hand to him and feel his hand close around it. She wanted to kiss him and have him kiss her.Her breath rasped in her throat, and she walked away with a soft whisper, “I need to change..."He arched his brows, having not heard her properly, and turned to look at her shuffling through her suitcase. Her hair fell on her shoulder when Neel noticed her whole bare back. He gulped hard before realising she had not tied the knot.His insides fumed, thinking everyone must have feasted upon his wife’s beauty, which belonged to him only.He marched towards her, grabbing her arm, and turned h
Anna rushed upstairs to her room."But Anna..." Grandma tried to call her, but she was quick to move to their room."Grandma, let her go; she doesn't have any senses to behave." Neil said carelessly."What are you saying?" Grandma raised her brow as she sat at the table."I'm hungry, grandma; can we talk later?"Savita shook her head, still unsure of how to start without her granddaughter-in-law."Grandma, don't worry about her; now she must be busy talking with her mom." He tried to assure her.Grandma nodded before adding, "But you make sure that she must have her breakfast.""Yes..." he gritted his teeth, looking down at his plate. His devil wife was taking place in the heart of his kind grandmother......Anna wept silently, thinking about whether to call her mother or not. She couldn't make her mom worry with her ill health now. Surely her mother will be scared to hear her cries.After a few minutes, she composed herself and washed her face, then she called her mom. The ring kept
Anna instantly crossed her arms over her chest, feeling shy. He clutched her wrist, trying to pull apart....but she was stubborn not to given... Suddenly, one thought crossed her mind.Anna, he gritted his teeth; already he was high, and she is denying him now.No... She pouted, "First tell me you love me.He stopped hearing her and glared at her. She turned her face away, taking the chance. He pulled down the cups, and her womanly assets popped out.She gasped, glaring at him cutely. He smirked, and before she moved, he was latching on her nipples like a baby, giving her a new sensation altogether.'Oh....Neil....' she exclaimed as she closed her eyes.He left her hands while his one hand cupped her other breast, his mouth devouring the breast.She clutched his nape, feeling his teeth nibble her nipple, giving her sweet pain. She began dripping, as it was too much for her.For the first time ever, someone was touching her so sensuously and so close. She was naked before some man, and
How did he forget, from the time she had walked into his life? Everything was messed up. He was really frustrated; he had tried asking Aryan about the truth but ended up having a fight with him.How can you think so lowly about your own wife? Aryan had burst upon him."I've seen her with you before she became my wife, Aryan." Neel."What the hell are you talking about, Neel?" Aryan. "Don’t hide things from me; I watched you both with my own eyes." Neel."What are you talking about?" Aryan asked."Holi party (colours festival)... in Anna’s town!" he spitted, only to see Aryans eyes widening with realisation that only confirmed Neels' doubts further.Aryan became silent. He was in a dilemma: should he tell him or not? Will he believe him? He knew how deep his friendship was with every friend. He wouldn’t listen to a word against anyone, let alone tell the truth about Rahul."Nothing is like what you think, Neel." "Believe me." He grabbed his shoulder, trying to make him believe."Then
Neel opened the door to see the maid standing on the door. "Sir, Anna madam had called me."Neel understood the reason and shoved her off, saying, "It is not needed now. Go from here." And he slammed the door on her face, internally still fighting with herself about why the hell he did that when she could roam with his friend on his back. He clinched his teeth in anger.Not anymore; I will teach her a lesson of a lifetime," he thought, marching to her as she again called him.“Who’s it…?” Anna.“No one...” Neel.“Jenny hasn't come yet...?” Anna asked.“No…” he snapped.‘Now how will I wear it…’ she asked looking at the sari in her hand.‘I will help...’ he offered.“You…?” her eyes widened."Why? "Do you have a problem with coming close to me?" He asked hoarsely, coming really close to her."No..." she moaned, looking at him with her wide eyes. His hands grabbed her close by her waist, and she slammed against his chest.Her nipples hardened with his contact, and he groaned inwardly, f
Anna glared at him and just stormed inside to wear her clothes, ignoring him completely thereby, for she was too tired to indulge in a fight with her devil husband."Anna...Anna baby...Suddenly there was knocking, followed by Grandma’s worried voice.Neil opened the door only to surprise Grandma further, "You here?" Has Anna Baby gotten ready?"‘Yes, Grandma! She is getting ready!’ He tried to cover up."I just heard her scream while I was coming up.""Um…" Neil was now tongue-tied; he cursed Anna in his mind."Grandma, I am absolutely fine!" Anna peeked from the dressing room.Grandma smiled and said, "What happened, dear? You aren’t ready yet!""Grandma it’s…" She was going to confess that she doesn’t know how to wear a sari, but Neil instantly stopped her."She will be ready, Grandma, just in a few minutes; why do you trouble yourself walking around unnecessarily when there are servants to follow your order?""You are right, son. It’s me who wants everything perfect, just like my
You made her upset! grandma glared at him."What did I do?" He defended."This is home, and family lives here, not your business... "So keep your suspicious behaviour away from my home." Grandma taunted."Now what I did wrong... you know..." Rajveer tried to protest."You need to judge the people and their behaviour before you trust them." Grandma knows her son and his business mind too well."Anna is the daughter of this house; don’t forget this! "You don’t need to judge her before trusting her." "Anna has filled the void of the daughter of this house. So I won’t allow your attitude with Anna anymore; keep that in mind, son." She pointed her forefinger at him."I don't know what spell she cast on you, but don’t expect the same thing from me. I know the world and won’t trust this new member of our family until I feel so." Saying so, he got up angrily to rush upstairs."Dad…your coffee." Anna, who had just walked out of the kitchen, stopped him, which angered him further.He turned to g
Anna reached upstairs to their room. She took out her clothes and made her way inside the bathroom. As soon as she opened the door, an intoxicating smell reached her nostrils making her go dizzy for a moment with the essence. As she went further in, the alluring site welcomed her. The whole room was decorated beautifully with candles and roses, her essentials were kept at side properly with some massage oils and ubtan… She was floored by the arrangements and instantly blushed realising it could be none other than her romantic husband’s planning. She closed the door without locking it as per her habit…some habits never change … she left a sigh of breath piling away the last piece of cloth from her body before stepping in the bathtub. She closed her eyes and relaxed her body, thinking about him…How she wished he would be here with her at the moment…she craved his touch so badly today. From the last few days he has been busy heavily looking after his wife. The thought itself pinched he
“won’t you say anything.” “What shall I say…? I was angry for a moment but now it was me and my deeds who caused you guys to take that step…” he said looking down at her. She nodded in no, feeling for him.“It was not entirely your fault Neil, you were lost in your nightmares grief that you threw out your frustration on me, and I am yours only that’s why you showed your right to me…”Her words made him skip a beat, “yes you are all mine. God’s gift for me, I am asking for sorry for last time from you, he hovers over cupping her face, because henceforth I promise to cherish you forever and ever, won’t give you a chance to complain…” He sealed her mouth with his promise.She felt blessed to have his love today as she reciprocated his kiss with more passion and love overflowing her being. She wanted to be his in all senses. As her mother made her understand a few things for taking their relationship to a new level, she was scared, shy, nervous and what not… overwhelmed with all feelings
Neil couldn’t contain the happiness of having his wife safe in his arms, after knowing the truth. For that moment he forgot everything and pulled her apart before crushing her lips with his. Anna was startled, so was Grandma, she turned her back to them.While Anna tried to struggle against his hard grip but he kissed her like crazy before pulling apart and next moment as if realising something he just rushed out of there.‘Grandma, Neil…’ Anna called out painfully only to have Grandma turned around hearing her sad voice.‘What happened?’ ‘Grandma, Neil just went away…’ Anna cried, as both ladies watched his car moving away from the place like wild wind. “What happened to him suddenly, let’s go dear, Don't know where he went suddenly, even after all this happened, I don’t know what happened now!?” Grandma was talking while Anna couldn’t register her words all the while only thinking about Neil.They followed his car which they had brought with the driver and found out soon that his
‘You can’t leave me.’ He was shaking her body vigorously to make her wake and come back to him. He still couldn’t believe that he lost her.Suddenly, Anna got up from her sleep and saw him all over her, shaking her body in his sleep. She was frightened, “Neil...Neil...come back to senses.” she patted his cheek, calling out to him. He got up at the start and soon realised that he was having a nightmare, next moment he hugged her tight, mumbling only this, “Anna, don’t leave me alone, don’t leave me alone.” “Neil relax, it’s only a dream…” she rubbed his back, cocooning him in her arms as he buried his face in the crook of her neck. Few tears rolled down his eyes, making her skin wet.‘Neil…’ she couldn’t bear to see him so broken, thereby she tried to pull apart but he wasn’t ready to let her go, ‘I won’t let you go Anna.’ ‘Nothing will happen to me when you are with me …relax, it’s only a dream.’ ‘I am with you, nothing will happen …’ she said soothed words in his ear as he held her
“It's been two years now I have been having those nightmares. Every night I have the same dream, I can't sleep properly because of them. Do you know who used to come in my dreams every night…”‘Who...!?’ She was so curious. Neel saw her cute face and couldn't stop admiring her, "That was you, Anna!" He cupped her face...‘I...how could I...that time we hadn't even met!’ She asked innocently.“Yeah, I know we didn't meet and that was only the thing Anna, which was troubling me. The girl has face of you, she used to come in my dreams and torture me always like I am some weak person and was getting beaten up by you.. Same dream every night, you and me...and our clothes were like royal people from the historical era.” He took the napkin to wipe her wet hair.“It is? then maybe it's like our previous birth.” She told me to get excited with the idea. “Even Grandma said the same thing but I don't believe in these things Anna...I don't think something like this could happen…” he said, thro
Next Day, He walked out of the bathroom getting ready for the bed and the sight before him made his heart twist in pain. Anna was sitting lost staring at the bonfire...and he saw her suddenly closing her eyes...she fell on the bed. ‘Anna…’ he shouted and rushed towards her. She half opened her eyes and saw his concern. ‘Are you fine love?’ He helped her get up and cupped her face.‘Hmm..just a little dizziness,’ she didn't know how suddenly her head felt heavy.Neel became more worried,"nothing to worry love, it's only because of the high doses of medicine. I will talk with Amy. Hmm .!?’Anna nodded and rested her head on his chest. He hugged her dearly, combing her hair. She parted after a while to look at his face. ‘Where are you lost!? What happened!?’‘I wish time would stop here forever…’ He mumbled looking into her brown eyes and pecked her forehead. She sighed and buried her face in the crook of his neck, feeling truly loved and cared for by him.....‘What nice weather, i
Next day, he met with Amy and other doctor’s team again, discussing the whole matter. ‘Do anything I want my Anna to get cured early.’‘I will do everything in my power Neel, I have discussed her case with other doctors as well. They have sent her medical reports abroad…doctors from there as well ready to help us.’Neel sighed, holding his head…he closed his eyes in pain.‘Relax buddy! We are trying everything…now just believe in God…’Neel nodded and asked him, ‘will you do one more favour for me!?’ ‘What??’ asked a confused Amy.‘Tell Grandma about this…just don’t disclose it to mom (Anna’s mother) don’t know how she will react.’ He knew his grandma could handle the truth as she had always been strong and brave.‘Alright, I will call after a while. You take care of Anna.’ He nodded and walked out with heavy feet.….At night, when he reached Oberon Mansion. He saw his Grandma ma waiting for him. Seeing her face he knew she got to know about Anna and Amy must have talked to her as
Both reached the temple in a few hours and prayed for other’s well being. ‘God, just keep my Neel and family happy and healthy, that’s all I want.’ Neel looked at her serene face while she was praying and smiled softly, I know what she might be asking for. He turned to the goddess statue and prayed, “keep her happy and healthy always. Just make her wishes come true. Also give me strength to say the truth to her. Keep us together always.”The priest came there and saw the couple, “take it son, god mother’s kumkum, put it in your wife’s vermilion. He handed it in Neel’s hand, and always applied it, God will keep you safe always and will keep you both together.’Neel took a pinch of saffron and looked at the Anna.She was looking at him with wet eyes, still unsure about his feelings. But he looked determined as he smeared the saffron in her partition, making her close her eyes. She felt a few drops fall on her nose and smiled remembering her mother’s words.Neel smiled affectionately a
At Night, He walked out of the shower & saw her sleeping at the study table itself. She was tired after a hectic day and studies that slept on the table itself.He moved near her, lost in her innocent beauty he bent down to her. He moved his face close to her & His wet hair touched her breaking her sleep.‘Neel you,’ she gave him a tired smile.‘let’s sleep’‘But Neel…’‘I said let’s go...do your studies tomorrow.’‘But, it has just one page remaining…’ she tried to argue as he caught her wrist pulling her up.‘Don’t make me culprit more, I have committed many crimes unknowingly.’ He said guilty.‘what are you saying…?’ Anna was confused when he heard him.“you have my promise…” He gave her an ultimatum and she has to agree.‘You have got my habit…’ she chuckled, lying down on the bed."Then, we are partners in marriage…” He gave her a wink while lying beside her.She cradle close to him, “now how are you feeling..” She checked his forehead and neck. ‘Never before better than this.”
