PART 16

Kripa was in the bed admiring her wedding ring. Unlike the common trend her's was not a diamond ring instead it was ruby flanked wid 2 sapphires on d side. She was never 1 who cud b called romantic, bt every gal has certain dreams abt dere wedding, nd wedding ring. Dis ring was alike her fantasy ring, yet dere was more on it how the gold was binding d ruby nd sapphires together in an intricate pattern. She was still thinking abt it when angad entered the room. she cursed herself for not locking the door, bt den her attention went to angad, as he carelessly strolled in. His jacket was on his shoulder, his tie loose, his shirt half buttoned. He looked deliciously ruffled and sexy. Kripa wished she had worn sth better den her pajamas.

Angad didn't agree, d set of pajamas was old, nd moulded to her curves, even though she was covered by d sheet, he could visualise her slender frame.

Sumwere a owl shrieked, nd d trance was broken, sense kicked in. Kripa dragged the sheet upto her chin.

"what r u doing here?"

"last time i checked it was my house, i can b newere."

"dis is my room."

"wrong dis is our room..." but b4 krips could answer, he said, "don't worry i m gonna sleep on d floor. Nana is very dear 2 me, i don't want her 2 noe abt us, nd sleeping in different rooms on our wedding nite...."

Krips was amazed. Dis was a all new angad, d angad she knew never wud hav cared for ne1 bt himself. Bt still she was suspicious abt his motives.

Angad recognised d implacable expression on her face, nd sighed. "Look it was a long day, nd i m nt in ne mood for nething other den sleeping." with dat he withdrew bedding frm d wardrobe nd set out making it. As soon as he hit d bed(or floor) he was asleep.

Bt kripa didn't trust angad, so she kept tossing nd turning d whole nite. True 2 his word angad didn't join krips in d bed. Krips was relieved, bt a feeling akin 2 disappointment was also dere, which irked her immensely. He was d enemy y should she b attracted 2 him of all men. Finally she slept in d wee hours of d morning. Wen she woke up, angad had left d room.

After saying goodbye 2 nana, nd promising 2 return soon dey left. Angad had nt told krips d location of where dey were going bt krips planned to find out soon. Bt ne amount of cajoling didn't get her d information abt where dey were headed.

Angad avoided telling her as long as possible bt even krips can identify d sahyadri mountain ranges, dey must b going 2 mahabaleshwar. Bt mahabaleshwar was nt d spot angad had in mind. He went further to panchagani. After four and a half hour drive dey reached panchagani which is surrounded by five hills of sahyadri range. Dey checked in dere hotel suite, which krips noted wid satisfaction had 2 rooms. As soon as krips reached d safety of her room, she called arohi.

"where r u?" arohi asked b4 krips can fit in a word.

"panchgani."

"wat happened?"

"i m married. I m now officially mrs kripa angad khanna." It has a nice ring to it, krips realised wid a jolt, were had dat thot cum frm.

"krips don't worry we will b dere by nite."

"which hotel?"

"royal." She was in trance nd mrs kripa angad khanna was still rolling in her mind, so she answered in mono syllables.

Arohi was worried. Wat happened 2 her normally talk a mile in a minute frnd. She resolved 2 reach dere as soon as possible.

"krips i m cuming, meanwhile u hold it. kk."

"kk." Angad knocked at d connecting door, krips was so intent on calling arohi dat she has nt noticed d door, nd it was opening, she cut off d call, nd was trying 2 reach her handbag jst as angad stepped in.

"do u wanna rest or go out?"

"we can hav lunch at sum restaurant or call room service."

"room service," krips quipped.

Angad had noticed d cell phone in her hand bt did nt comment, instead he went out nd brought menu cards. Bt krips was in a state of panic, nt only by wat angad surely must hav seen, bt more by wat was in her mind, so she gave d menu card bak to him nd asked him 2 order for her 2.

Honeymoon, her mind was revolving circles, between mrs angad khanna, honeymoon, and connecting door.

Krips picked at her lunch, her expression of a person under a lot of pressure, angad cud nt handle it ne more, he moved around d table hauled her up, while krips stared at him in confusion he kissed her. Her eyes went dark wid passion. D instant his lips touched hers, she surrendered 2 him, although it was more giv nd take bt still angad was in d position of domination. His lips trailed a path frm her lips 2 her pulse. Krips lost all sense of time nd place nd let herself loose in his embrace. It was angad who finally released her. He wanted kripa bt wen she was nt so vulnerable, wen she knew wat she was doing, bt d kiss had effectively wiped d anxiety frm her eyes replacing it by wonder nd a soft glow which was beckoning angad 2 kiss her again. B4 he did ne such thing he went to take a cold shower.

Meanwhile arohi has informed arjun nd armaan abt krips whereabouts. Armaan was staying in Mumbai bt arjun-arohi was on d way 2 teach angad lesson of his life. Dey were nt alone, dere was one another on constant trail of angad-kripa 2 in d blue sedan.

fab part....

@teri_susan: thanx, angad has only 1 intention 2 win kripa as his😆

PART 17

"kripa, d hotel owner is my frnd, he is throwing a party for us dis eve. Its black tie."

"party, wat for?"

"WE WERE MARRIED DIS MORNING IF U REMEMBER." Angad was irritated wid krips, she cant remember d most important event of dere lives. Den another thot crossed his mind.

"and u better behave married dis eve or wenever we r in public, nd while we r married no other den me."

"dat same apply for u 2?"

"yes it does, no other for u, nd none other den u for me." He said smiling. Kripa thot wat was dere 2 smile, neways she cannot think of herself wid ne1. Aise toh he notices every small thing bt he doesn't notice dat krips stays away frm every human male, except papa, bhai, arjun nd ANGAD. Y angad? Y doesn't she experience a ripple of fear wen she is near him? Oh she tremble around him 2 bt nt frm fear. Was she attracted 2 him? After all dose years y him?

Kripa has zoomed out of d room, nd 2 her wonderland again. Was she thinking abt sum1 else. He cannot except dat, he wanted kripa body nd soul. So he did d only thing he can do 2 bring her among living again, he hauled her up, in2 his arms, holding her so close dat even air cannot pass through nd kissed her. Instantly her expression changed, dey were nt vague nemore, instead a sharp desire for him was visible dere, for him only for him.

Angad has 2 stop man handling her, dat was d thot dat crossed her mind, wen he picked her up in his arms nd took her 2 his room. Still kissing he lowered her 2 d bed. Krips was grateful, bcoz she knew if he stopped holding her, kissing her, sanity will return. Bt dis felt so gud, so right, she wanted dis 2 go on forever. Den his lips slid down 2 her wildy beating pulse, he stopped dere as if he was also feeling d importance of dis moment. He kissed her eyelids , her jaw, wen she felt him stiffen. In dat instant things changed, instead of d tender angad of moment ago, dis angad was a grim faced stranger, nd still grimmer was his apology. "i m srry, i shud nt hav lost control." Nd strode out of his room. Bt she did want him 2 loose control, she wanted him 2 kiss her nd more, it was as if her body has a different mind den her own. Bt she accepted d truth at last she wanted him.

Angad was nowhere 2 b seen wen krips finally came out of d room, he did nt appear until 6 evening, dat 2 to change for d party.

Kripa was in d shower wen she heard d door of d suite open nd, close wid a thud. She was worrying over wat 2 wear, nt expecting dis charade 2 last she has nt packed for ne social occasion, bt wen she came out of d room dere were 2 packages kept on d bed wid more on d floor. She picked up d first, nd opened it. It was a beautiful pink green saree, d two colours intermingling such dat one cannot think dat dey were ever separate, yet dere was a subtle boundary in between dem wherever dey got 2 close, jst like her angad, united in d front bt nt so dey knew. Still dere was a bond which dey cannot deny. She kept it carefully on d bed, nd picked d second package. It was a gem green gown, d neckline at first glance was a demure U, btw wen she tried it on, nothing was demure abt d gown, it clinged 2 her every curve, d back was jst shy of her hipline. She felt intensely feminine nd empowered.

Den she proceeded to open d reat of d packages, dere was a diamond brooch, beautiful eternity earings, nd a simple pendent along wid a gold chain in d pack near d saree. Bt she was captivated by wat she found in d nxt package, a sapphire pendent, wid a unique setting. It was set in between d shape of an eye, though it was unusual, bt it was heartwrenchingly beautiful. Though d matching ears were nt so imaginative, she was thankful for it, she didn't want 2 look weird. D danglers were still eye catching.

Still more packages revealed shoe wear. D heels were high yet d stone work was charming. For once she didn't hav 2 choices it was black 2 go wid both dresses, as if d person who had bought it cannot suffer 2 find a pair more. More packages revealed a black handbag, nd d last was...

Wen it came 2 making d choice abt wat 2 wear, d saree was 2 close 2 wat she felt for angad, dis evening she wanted 2 feel desired, so she wore d dress, nd sapphire pendent nd earings 2 go wid it.

When she came out of d room, angad was standing near d window sill in d drawing room. He was wearing jeans wid a pale green shirt, nd an brown jacket on it.(i cant visualise angad in gem green nething so it thot pale green will b fine.)kripa stood at d threshold to her room, she wanted to move bt cannot, granted she has seen angad is a tux, on their wedding, as well as form fitting clothes, in his shows bt dis was totally diff, a wonderful mix of casual nd formal, jst like d man.

Angad turned at dat moment. Kripa was nt fast enuf to stop ogling, nd a smile found its way 2 angad mouth. Dat smile, mega watt gal magnet smile, was wat was needed to complete d effect of d outfit, nd it was all kripa can do 2 stop throwing herself at him.

Meanwhile angad was mesmerised by kripa. She has looked beautiful in her wedding dress, bt now she looked ready 2 b ravished. so he has made d rite choices abt d clothes, nd everything fit her like second skin. d necklace was looking gr8. He knew dat it was nt a normal choice, bt sumhow instinctively he has known it will suit kripa. Frm toe to d bundle of glossy hair on her head she looked absolutely fantastic. All he wanted 2 do was strip her of d dress nd take her 2 d bed, bt instead he said,"shall we?"
