His Virgin Wife - [MG] Chapter 3 - 14/11 [Page 24] - Page 5

Maan had been responsible for all three of his siblings from the early age of 20. He was 28 now, crusty and impatient, a real hell raiser whom most people had found intimidating. Geet had teased him and picked at him from her teens and still did occasionally.

She adored him despite his fiery temper and legendary impatience. Soon after the incident that could have nearly killed him, or blinded him she told him to put a rakish patch over his eye which couldmake him look like a sexy pirate like the one from pirates of the carribbean.

He'd told her to shut up and mind her own business. She ignored him and continued to held
pinky nurse him even when he'd come home from the hospital. That hadn't been easy. Geet was a senior in high school at the time.

She'd gone from being in an orphanage all her life to her maiden aunt's house the
year before the accident happened. Her, aunt mrs. Shah, didn't approve of Maan singh Khuraana although she respected him. Geet had to beg her aunt to drive her to the hospital and then to Khuraana mansion everyday so she can look after Maan.

Her aunt felt it was pinky's job and not Geet's, but pinky couldn't do anything with her older brother. Left alone Maan would have been out on the northern border with his men helping to brand calves.

At first the doctors feared he would lose sight in both his eyes. But later it had become evident that, that wasn't the case. During that time of uncertainty, Geet had attached herself to him and refused to go away, teasing him when he become dependent, cheering him up when he wanted to quit. She wouldn't let him give up, and soon there had been visible progress in his recovery.

Geet had gone willingly, not only because she was tired of the orphanage,but also because her aunt lived on the southern border. Geet visited her new friend pinky most every day after that. It wasn't until her aunt had died Unexpectedly and left her a sizable nest egg that she'd been able to put herself through college and keep up the payments on the house she and her aunt had occupied together.

She'd lived frugally, and she'd made good grades and she had the promise of a medical position at the local hospital when she graduated. Life at the age of 23 had looked so much better than life at the age of 6 when a grieving young child had been taken from her family home to an orphanage when a fire had killed both her parents.

Geet Wasn't Interested In Marriage any time soon. her only taste of love had been an older teenager when she was a senior at school. Ge'd just started noticing her when he was killed in a wreck on the way from an out of town fishing trip with his cousins. Losing her parents and then the one love of her life had really taught her the dangers of loving she wanted to be safe, she wanted to be alone.

Maan was a dish, by anyones standards, even if he did lack social grades. by the time he'd left he put it more backs than a debating team. she hadn't asked him to take her anywhere else since then. he seemed to dislike everything well rather everybody these day's, Especially Geet. Geet hadn't minded his abrasive company. She actually admired his penchant for telling the truth even when it wasn't welcome.

she tended to speak her own mind, too. she'd learnt that from Mack. He'd forced her to fight backk soon after she became friends with his sister Pinky. he put he back up and refused to let her rush of and cry.. he'd make sure he kept it up and made her the independant women she is today.. he taught her to stand her ground, to have the courage to face her convictions.

There was 'well mainly is too much between them to let a disagreement keep them apart though.

Maan looked much older then 28. This was probably due to the fact that he had taken on so much responsibilty on his broad shoulders that he'd been robbed of his childhood. His mother had died young and his father started to drink, and then became abusive to the kids. Maan had stood up to him many times taking the blows meant for the younger three. In the end, their father had suffered a stroke and had been place in a nursing home while Maan had kept the younger Khurana's together and supported them by firstly working as a mechanic.

when maan was 2, his father had died, leaving Maan to look after the younger three. Meanwhile he'd invested corefully and brought Good shares and started his own Construction company. He was successful at everything he touched. His only run of real bad look had been when he'd been thrown of his horse and nearly got knocked out and poked in the eyes by a raging bull.

Geet leaned against the doorway of the barn with her arms folded and smiled t the picture he made with the pup. As if he sensed her presence, his head rose. she couldn't see his eyes under the shadow of his wide - brimmed hat, but she knew he was most probably glaring at her. he didb't like letting people know how very human he was..

'Slumming, Miss Doctor?' He drawled, rising gracefully to his feet.

She only smiled, used to his remarks. 'Seeing how the other half lives, Mr. Construction Lover,' she shot back. 'Pinky says you won't let the love of her life through the front door.'

'So what arer you, a virgin sacrfice to appease me??' he asked, approaching her with that quick menacing stride that made her heart jump.

'You aren't supposed to know that i'm a virgin,' she pointed out when he stopped just an arm's length away. He let out a nasty word and smiled mockingly, waiting to see what she'd say. She ignored him instead and the bad language, refusing to rise to the bait. she grinned at him instead. That disconcerted him, apparently. He pushed his hat over his jet black hair and just stared at her.

he had lakota blood, he could speak that language as fluently and Hindi and French. His bold gaze roamed down her slender body in a neat, fairly loose jeans and soft yellow V neck sweater she wore. She had Long Dark hair, very wavy and hazel brown eyes. she wasn't pretty but her eyes and mouth were. Her figure drew far more attention than she was comfortable with, especially from Maan.

'Pinky's Would be boyfriend got the Raichand Girl Pregant Last year,' he said abrputly..

Her gasp made his eyes narrow.
