 Now a soft kiss- Aye, by that kiss, I vow an endless bliss!-John KeatsHe forgot why he had married her in the first place. Trampled on his own vow to be never lured by another woman ever again, he stepped into the water, dissolving every ounce of self control in its sweet cool currents. "Wha-why are you coming here?"she took a step back. "Are you afraid of that? "Chandra asked depicting two unblinking eyes over the water in the golden light of the fire. "Oh God! "She squealed unable to decide which way to go. For if she stayed here a little longer she was sure, she was going to loose a limb or two and if she dashes for the land then the consequence is going to be far more humiliating than any other tragedy could cause. He would see her unclothed! And that thought was enough to keep her pinned at her place and watched as the animal's long spiny tail moved and it maneuvered towards her. "Hushh..."he indicated her to stay silent, an half smile spreading across his face.Just at

Running her fingers through her messy tangled tresses, she tried to straighten her locks that had been unkempt and untidy for far too long. 'A futile way!' She scowled at her reflection in the river. 'Anywhere why would she care?' Binding her unruly and now frizzy hair at the top of her head and decided to leave; The prince was yet again waiting for her behind the bushes."Why are we going to the town today?"She asked as innocently as possible, despite knowing the very reason of the sudden visit. Perhaps since she wanted him to say it out and aloud to her, that indeed- he 's a failure, that his life is a failure and that he was repenting his disicion of, 'biting of more than he can ever chew!' That he had wedded the hiress of one of the richest house hold in all over Hindustan and now he wasn't able to provide for her.She sneered internally.While blinked at him innocently for the answers that were now long due.'To send you back to your father.' He must have stated her, despite of w

 Faith is taking the first step even when you don't see the whole staircase.-Martin Luther King JrHe himself in all his flesh and blood stood at her door, leaning over a tree trunk with his eternal, exasperating smirk.For a moment or so they stood there looking at each other. Neither saying a word and while Devika did not know what to say, her husband was contemplating how to!But soon enough Devika returned to her true mind, reminding herself how he had made her feel like a shabby insubstantial woman over and over again while he used her worse than an article. And now that her use was over, he had tossed her aside with no life line whatsoever! 'what are you doing here?' the words were on the tip of her tongue but she decided better than that and slammed the rickety wooden door hard on his face. Now THAT she hoped was a very clear message to leave her alone but then she barely knew this man!He didn't feel humiliated when she thrust the door close on his face, not one bit becaus

 In the garden of memory. In the palace of dreams.....that is where you and I shall meet.-John Donnelly "For the sake of God, can't you control your language?" Even if unwittingly, a furious blush enveloped her natural rosy cheeks that she tried to obscure with an air of rage towards that insatiable man. 'Her husband precisely' And that is what his words had claimed, hadn't they?'Tonight I will make you cry my name so many times and in so many ways in my bed that you will never be able to recall even the first letter of the name of your dead lover.' She gulped looking further away into the darkness, lest he might notice something strange on her face and read her thoughts? For the imageries running through her mind after that tell-tale proclamation weren't something she would want him to know. 'Prepare yourself, because you are about to become my wife in real scene.''Ugghh!' She have to stop this insanity. But that was all futile wasn't it? Because she can already hear his muffl

Part 18: The last cardSilence isn't empty, it's full of answers.-PinintrestDevika watched her spouse, as his eyes grew hooded and dark. His manarism changing to another dynamics, growing gaurded and furious like never before. Although, his elder brother still kept up the pretence to look delighted or she assumed so since there is no way knowing about someone genuineness, specially when their smiles are so bright and infective. He watched over as the supplies were loaded back into the carts the half errected tents, folded back along with everything else, ready to leave for the palace.But the quandary here wasn't about going to palace hereupon, but who is the one superior here. Because one thing that she knew about her husband was that he ain't made to take orders! He likes to dictate his own."Come'on sister, let me help you upto your carriage and then we can proceed for the palace. " Roopak extened his hand with a tender smile to Devika as she alternately looked at the two bro
