Part 5


A fistful of lace!

That was what her teddy was now reduced to!

What a turn-on the sight still was!!

Bits of black lace clutched tight in a strong brown fist!

Her eyes strayed from the fist to sinewy forearms, bulging biceps, a powerful chest, corded neck muscles, a strong chin, sinfully sexy lips, a straight nose and then a pair of eyes that were currently shut tight!

He looked like a sleeping Greek God!

A wave of tenderness rose within her at the sight of his relaxed face, peaceful in repose. He must be tired after all that frenetic activity. Geet's face flushed as she recalled what had gone on in the past few hours. A man of considerable appetites, the erotically charged marauder had been insatiable after a three day fast!!

"And of course you just lay back and thought of England", her inner voice taunted her!

Anything but that!

Her insides started humming all over again as she recalled his actions and her reactions. That was the first couple of times! But the third time, she had taken the initiative and it was his turn to react. It had been mutual combustion at the end of it, leaving them both lying spent and glowing in the aftermath! After some cuddling and whispered sweet nothings, they had gone to sleep in each other's arms!

Now she was wide awake and wanting more while her husband continued to sleep!
As if on cue, his eyes fluttered open and he looked up at her blearily!

" Hey baby"!

His voice sounded even sexier, roughened with sleep!

God, she was going to need therapy at this rate!!

He raised his right hand and started stroking a path down her forehead with his middle finger. It moved down to her nose and lips when she nipped lightly at it.

"Minx!"

She lowered her eyelashes demurely before giving him a smouldering look from beneath.

He took an indrawn breath and went to pull her towards him when she started laughing!

He frowned at her!

She pointed at his fist which was still curled around the shreds of black lace!

"You seem like a warrior with his spoils!"

His lips curled in a sexy half smile as he looked at the remains of the teddy he still clutched.

"Get yourself a dozen more of these!"

Was that an order?!

She laid out terms of her own!

"Only if you promise to rip them to shreds just the way you did this one!"

His eyes widened!

"What a shameless little hussy you've turned into! Women are not expected to be so blunt in these matters!"

He looked at her mockingly!

"If you prick us do we not bleed?"

Maan was stunned!

"The Bard?"

Her face was flushed with pride as she nodded!

"Dadima gave me a collection of his plays to read!"

"You liked it?"

She nodded enthusiastically, before adding, "But I did know of his existence before coming to Delhi, you know! I did go to college briefly!"

He stroked her cheek softly!

"Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:"

She looked at him with a mixture of curiosity and delight.

"I learnt to appreciate Shakespeare at Dadima's knee!"

She beamed at him in happiness!

Maan's face took on a serious look before he continued.

"I am sorry if I hurt you the other day when I pointed out your lack of a formal education!"

Her expression grew clouded with remembered pain but she shook her head.

"Well, you were only speaking the truth. I realize that I am who I am in the company only because I am your wife!"

He shook his head hurriedly

"Don't underestimate yourself, Geet! You are an incredibly bright woman with oodles of talent!"

Geet looked at him uncertainly.

"You're not saying that just to flatter me?"

"Why would I? I've got what I wanted after all!"

He looked pointedly at the rumpled towels and she flushed scarlet!

"Geet, why don't you think of going back to college?"

Geet looked at him like he had grown two heads!

"Don't be silly! I am a married woman with a family to manage and besides..."

She tailed off!

He looked at her quizzically!

"I thought you wanted to be a papa!"

He looked taken aback before he threw his head back and laughed.

She looked at him in confusion!

"That was just a euphemism...you know...to tell you that I wanted to make love to you"

She looked a bit mollified!

"Thank God for that, I thought you were planning to keep me barefoot and pregnant all my life!"

"Much as I love the idea of keeping you bare all over, I think you should go back to study, Geet. It will give you a world of confidence!"

Geet nodded thoughtfully.

"What will I study though?"

"Why don't you do a course in planning and design? You have a flair for it. And you are part owner of an architectural firm after all! You will be a greater asset to the team, with a bit of formal training!"

Her eyes shone with excitement!

"You think I can?"

"Why ever not? We'll browse through the net for courses offered by institutions in Delhi!"

She nodded enthusiastically.

He gave her a tender look and caressed her cheek.

"I want you to be happy always, Geet! I want you to experience all the joys that a normal eighteen year old would!"

Her eyes took on a naughty gleam.

"Does that include late night parties and trips to the discotheque with boyfriends?"

He pulled her to him possessively as he said,

"Make that singular and man friend!"

"Who is this man friend and why haven't I been introduced to him?"

He rose fluidly and put his hand out, "Glad to meet you, Mrs Geet Khurana. I am Maan Singh Khurana, your one and only man friend!"

She shook her head.

"I don't shake hands with naked men!"

"Oh, and what do you do?"

She launched herself into his arms and kissed him smack on the mouth in reply.

While he would've drawn her back onto the towels again, she held him back!

"Promise me you will never sleep on that couch even if we fight ever again!"

She looked at the offending object with such distaste that he couldn't help laughing.


"I'm going to ask Nakul to remove it tomorrow..!"

Her voice trailed off as he swept her into his arms and carried her to the couch.

"I can't have you disliking my only comfort for three nights, can I?"

He sat on the couch and positioned her atop him!

"Let's make some good memories with this couch!""

He pulled her down and started kissing her passionately, his hands playing havoc with her senses simultaneously. When they stopped for breath, she said,

"I've never said this before to you but I want to say it now!"

He looked at her questioningly!

Her face was flushed and yet she held his gaze as she quickly blurted out,

"The earth moves...and every time!"

She looked at him expectantly.

He looked back blankly.

"Does it...for you?"

He pretended to think!

Her face fell!

"It did all other times but am not too sure about that last time...why don't we check again just to make sure?"

His next move ensured that all thoughts of the solar system were knocked right out of her head!!
