Chapter 78 Love & FriendshipAgain when she saw him smiling wholeheartedly, a sudden thought engulfed Iris 'what will he do once he realizes about Stella's diseases?'Iris was glad that she will be besides him and try to be there for him.... '''''''''''''''''''''Edwin had missed Iris so much and now when she stood in front of him, he wasn't sure if he wanted to take his wife away into my bedroom to questionnaire her and find out why she left him and that too without informing. He had been shitless worried about her. She seemed to so excited last morning when she woke him up with a sweet smile followed by longing kiss arousing him and touching where he loved to and started the day every husband would love to with his wife undressed besides him. Then she had asked him to be prepared for a surprise. Edwin was busy in the office with the biggest deal to work on with the multinational company which was to be finalized the very same day but at the same time his eyes lingered on he Ra
Chapter 79Love And CommittmentEdwin decided to pretend to be furios with Stella once back home.But when he returned home, his heart meltedStella's eyes were red and her face looked pale. He forgot all that he planned. "Damn!!! I always tell her not to work too much" he cupped her face in his hands "you should not stress. I can take care of the worst case scenario." He kissed her on her forehead and rubbed the tear on the sides of her blues with his thumb and took her to the room. Stella tried to escape from his grip. She was concerned about Iris "What happened?" he asked her softly. "Nothing" she tried to avoid eye contact. "Stella did that manager?..." Edwin clenched his fist angry if it was due to that manager of social organization, he is going to be a dead man. "Edwin... My god. It's just migraine." She tried to failingly move out of his grip "Overnight traveling since two days and this work. I am okay. Just severe headache." Stella explained looking into his eyes but
Chapter 80Love Or Respect?Desire I have for Stella is not to have Stella, it's the desire of her company and her love!!!Stella is behaving so obnoxious these days!!!!Edwin wasn't much bothered that Stella had been completely ignoring him.She behaved like she'd been married to Iris and Edwin was the guest around here. The two are so much into each other always gossiping and whenever Edwin is around there is a hush silence.'I am jealous of Iris.' Edwin muttered as he rubbed his hair with the fluffy white towel 'But naay! I can't be. I love her too very much to be jealous of her. And isn't this what I wanted.My two girls friendly with each other!'But damn he needed his wife. And I NEED her now. He was desperate and aroused last night when she wore a pretty pink strappy night gown and was about to pull her but she escaped giggling that she wanted to chat with Iris first and then she'll join later. Edwin could not recall how late she came because when he snuggled to her inhalin
Chapter 81ImpersonatingAfter a hectic days work in the office, Edwin returned home tired and exhausted, his only energy booster being Stella's warm hug and a passionate kiss.He was stunned to see the dimness of the house; probably both the girls were out on an excursion. But these women, in excitement to shop they even forgot to lock the doors properly. Edwin passed a silent prayer that he had secured his house with finger print locking system and he could enter home, add to it all the staff has been suspended for the day. Edwin took a deep breath frowning; he already missed them. Had they shared their plans with him, he thought he would have confederated with them.He threw his bag on the side rack of the cupboards and then managing it properly scared of the wrath of Stella who was always finicky about keeping her things spick and span.He loosened the tie and threw his coat on the bed, unbuttoning the first few buttons of the shirt he smiled inertly at the mess his clothes we
Chapter 82False Hopes“Do you have a boyfriend?” Edwin asked Iris out of blue.Iris choked on the bread she was eating and started coughing badly. Quickly Stella stood on her feet helping her with the juice.Iris's face was red due to coughing."I'll get some water from the kitchen" Stella helped.But as soon as she stood, Stella tripped on her place, some nerve pull or somethingEdwin ran to her bending on his knees to ease her pain. Softly he massaged her ankle, which had a mild sprain, and she was immediately fine. Edwin however enjoyed the act a bit too much. Iris's coughing had settled by now and she helped herself for water from the kitchen.Edwin's hands were enjoying way too much as her orange dress gave him an easy access to her porcelain skin which were about to reach her thighs"What is this Stella?' Edwin gasped at the blue spot, some kind of bruise marks at three different places on her legs."I don't know, they have been appearing lately". She tried to dismiss pushin
Chapter 83Magic Eraser For Pains*Do you know the feeling when your heart is so hurt that you could feel the blood dripping from it?Edwin was never so confused in his feelings like he was today.*Edwin want to cry, cry out loud, loud enough to reach the seventh heaven and let there be convulsions occurring there with his scream that they realize that what they are doing to him and his Stella is totally unfair.*And at other contradictory instance he wanted to hug Stella, hide her in the couch of his arms nestle her in teh safety of his chest and never let her go. He wanted to tell her "you are going to be okay. No damn cell cancer can do anything to you.”* He also wanted to yell at her, shout at her for getting a killer disease not that she took it by choice.*Another reason of him being infuriated with her being she hid it from him. She bloody damn knew, she F##king knew it the day she left to fetch Iris.She should have come to him instead. Yet she had been persistent to hide i
Chapter 84Twisted Fates & LoveBoth Edwin and Iris settled at a huge broken tree on the side of the road .She held his hand in hers; carrying a concerned look she said "I am sorry." and looked away trying to swallow her tears."Don't be. HE should be sorry" Edwin said looking upwards at the dark sky."Edwin don't please. You need to have faith." She leaned closer wiping her tears with her full sleeved red shirt."Faith on whom?" he asked frustrated."You are giving up on her before trying." She snarled angrily."Trying?" Edwin asked perplexed."Yes.. you have to try for her treatment. You have to convince her. She is completely in denial." She explained. "These few days" Edwin hiccupped "Stella is getting closer to you than me."I know you are going through lot." She pressed both his hands looking directly into his eyes. She had to lift her face to maintain the height. "You love her a lot. But now you have to be her strength not weakness. You tried to run but what did you get into
Chapter 85Threat: An Another ComplicationIris really had no idea when would she be able to absorb the fact about what she was there for?With Edwin visiting all the internet sites and approaching all the doctors, Iris was affirmative he would find a way out of Stella's illness and if he does so Iris was going to be the happiest person alive on this earth.What else would a person want other than to know that love of your life is happy in his own life?It breaks her heart into minutest of pieces every time she sees him cry and he does cry very often. He hides his tears either excusing for washroom or turning around pretending to read a text from his mobile or simply checking the weather out of the window. Throwing his fork down and then bending to pick it up using that time to wipe off his tears. Iris knew very well all these are pretends when he could not control his pain for Stella. She does try to press his palm or rub his back, a bit of effort on her part to assure him that ev
Chapter 121It is NormalIris always knew that she loved him truly but hearing him from Edwin simply was enigmatic, it was a kind of turn on."hence” edwin sighed as he put back her fray strands of hair behind her ears “I love you and I love each and every part of your body even your abdomen where Isabelle rested for nine months" he smiled and went back to her torso.His hands moved around her lower abdomen creating tiny crackers insides her body the soft harmless ones that erupted every where making her moan. Just when Iris got used to his magical touch, his fingers were replaced by his tongue, which raised the level of pleasures the tiny crackers increased on their intensity forcing her to make cries of moan.Iris closed her fist unable to control what was happening inside her when he bit exactly below her naval, the magnitude of pleasure reaching new heights and Iris closed her eyes."No do not close our eyes" he said commandingly as he looked at her. When her dark met his hazels
Chapter 120Beautiful Love "I am sorry Edwin." Iris said. "I did not trust your love, I was scared and disturbed of having $ex with you" she looked at her toes embarrassed of what she was saying. "It was unfair. I knew I hurt you. I feel very low of myself."He cupped her face in both his hands, his touch tender making her lean her face, giving up her strength and submitted to him breaking all her wallsIris looked back at him as he repeated the words "I am sorry" he said "I should have understood, I forced myself on you. I should have courted you first, showed my love, made you believe in love and win your trust first that I do love you.""Edwin" Iris called his name; his words so polite and sweet making her heart melt. Iris was not used to something like this and couldn't believe that this was happening. She wanted to stop him, so that it does not get washed away. "With all the hardships in my life somewhere I had accepted happiness is curse for me and I cannot have it and so" s
Chapter 119Picture PerfectIris turned around to see Edwin and a red blush embraced her face."Umm... I guess I am early." Iris said to cut the intense silence between them.Edwin complimented me. He said I look pretty.I am blushing!"No you are on time." He offered his hand for Iris to take and she did.He walked with her at the start of the first painting.He pressed her hand softly making her look at him.The innocent grin in his hazels made Iris lock her gaze at him. He raised his eyebrows gesticulating something. Iris was so lost in his handsome face that was full of love for her that she couldn't decipher his actions.He put both his hands on her shoulders and turned her around pushing towards the first painting from the row.The painting was covered with a netted curtain. Edwin lifted his neck asking her to undo the curtains.Iris looked around as if she was stealing from a departmental store. I mean who was she to unveil somebody else's property?But Edwin gave another
Chapter 118Date NightEdwin...Iris sighed... She was behaving like a teenager in cliché' love.After the day she let her fears out to Edwin, he'd been distant. He never shouted or lost temper.He'd even polite and normal with Isa and her too.Sometimes Iris wondered if she had kept her mouth shut the other day, things would have been different.I should have tried on my own, I shouldn't have bothered him. I could have made excuses but I couldn't lie to him direct on the face..Again the way he asked, it felt that he cared and so Iris let the doors of her insecurities wide open in front of him.For better or worse... it's yet to decipherOtherwise she believed he would have easily guessed it out. Exactly like he guessed that something was seriously wrong within Iris and their relationship.Probably Iris's confession the other day made him realize what she was earlier and now What if he loathed me, felt disgusted with the thoughts of having $ex repeatedly with a prostitute.' Negati
Chapter 117I Am Not A Virgin"You are in love." Twain couldn’t be happier, he was smiling from ear to ear."I do?' Edwin spoke for himself "I don't know how but every time I shout at Iris with an attempt to hurt her so that she despises me and walks out of my life, I feel the pain, ." He shuddered at the memory "Her eyes that'd turn glassy for a fraction of a second and jump back to normal again hurts deep in my heart.I cannot hurt her. Ever""You two good now?" Twain could see the answer on Edwin's face but still he asked "She looked so pretty in the morning when she was showering all her love on Isabelle, the way she looked at Isabelle, helped with her tiny feet to wear those shoes, the patience she was portraying when Isa was showing her tantrum throwing her shoes away every time she tried to put them on her. My heart constricted with a strong feeling for her." Edwin smiled faintly "That feeling made me realize that I was doing what Stella wanted to do. I was falling for her but
Chapter 116Can We Fall In Love Twice?Edwin held her from shoulders, his grip tight enough to hurt as he pulled Iris making her look at his eyes which were not furious; they were confused."Hate you... tell me how do I hate you Iris? Tell me? I tried to hate you. I told myself Stella didn't fight her disease because she had YOU.' He stressed on the last word and then loosened the painful grip. Iris's hands brushed the place he held tight to rub away the pain.But her eyes and ears focused on the man who was her legally wedded husband.For the first time the authority of his voice made her realize he was her husband"I want to hate you because you agreed to sleep with me. I want to hate you because you loved me even when you knew I was married and you could never have me. I tried to hate you." His voice soft now and his hands closed to her, his fingers brushing her cheeks for a second and then he moved the strand hair on the face behind her ears.He moved closer giving a short peck o
Chapter 115Hate Me Like You DoIsabelle turned one year and six months today. She was the sweetest child Iris had ever seen, not that she had seen much of children in her life but still Isabelle was the best and she loved every bit of her. She gave meaning to her existence, she was heir to my unconditional maternal love, and she was her world.Today when it was time for Edwin to take Isabelle for a morning stroll, Iris was playing with her trying with the new jumpsuit and shoes that she had brought for her especially for a morning walk.Edwin saw Iris with her and cringed; he was getting restless to take Isabelle in his arms. He got so impulsive that he shouted at Iris that even Isabelle got scared and leaned her shivering body close to her.She was so scared that she hid behind Iris peeping at Edwin's figure in dismay"Its okay baby." Iris kissed her forehead and handed her to Edwin.Edwin had a grimaced look on his face, completely disappointed at the fact that Isabelle was scar
Chapter 114Time & PatienceVoices of playful Isabelle gurgling, laughing and Edwin's soft honeydew laughter woke Iris up in the morning as she lifted the covers put on me while I was asleep.Iris knew who the one behind it is and her lips curved to a smile....Antonym of emotions seared in Iris.She felt guilty, ashamed and terrible about herselfHow can a mother sleep when her child is in danger? Or was it all a dream?Iris opened her eyes to shut them again.The bright sunlight emanating from the windows made het squint as she reopened them, her heart pounding with fear. Iris was jerked back into the past when she was surprised waking up in a complete different ambience.Isabelle crying, her abdominal pain and then Dr.Simpson uttered those words 'Isabelle is critical', Iris went out of control.Oh shit! I even slapped the doctor.Iris behaved like a possessed screaming, shouting and cursing when the staff and the nurses held her tightly making her wince with her inner pain and sh
Chapter 113Cruel Words With pounding heart Iris reached Stella's room She panicked when she found Stella lying on the floor straight, her face reflecting pain and Isabelle in her arms.Stella looked at Isabelle with concern and as Iris scanned the room.Iris could judge with Isabelle's crib half fallen and Stella's leap to save her falling from that cot of hers.Quickly Iris picked Isabelle who was shell shocked at her happening, Stella's pained face doing no good to calm her down.Lulling her for a second Iris nestled her on the bed and still she sat straight at an instant, fear lined on her face as Stella stayed on the floor with helplessness, small moans of pain escaping her mouth.Being a healthy baby of almost 11months Isabelle tried to reach Stella.Stopping her with a stern 'Sit" gesture Iris attended Stella. Iris tried to lift her off the floor but with the pain she was bearing, lack of cooperation on her part did not help."Stella please try." Iris begged."Isabelle" Stel
