Part 7
Excursion
It had been two days yet still Rakesh's anger hadn't died. Then again his anger had never died since he had been in the competition with Rajveer. He sat ruminating over all the instances where Rajveer had out beaten him by deceit and over smartness which had left him with nothing more than insults everywhere he went.
A young man came from behind who at first glance would appear to have very chocolaty sweet looks yet there was a devious mind hidden behind it. "Has Rajveer disturbed you once more uncle?" In return Rakesh nodded his head to agree which made the young man snarl. "Rajveer has lessened his days of life even more by sending you to jail uncle. After all how long will we remain quiet? How long?" He was utterly frustrated. "Nothing is going to happen by remaining quiet." He smacked his fist onto the marble table top. "You just give one indication, only one cue." His eyes became dangerously red. "I swear we'll shed blood. We'll destroy his family to smithereens." By the end he was really hyper. "You just give one indication uncle."
Rakesh was almost into his nephew's words when another man, with a slim figure and eagle like features stepped inside the house, giving a sharp powerful look. "No, no." For a man of his appearance he was quite calm. "This job should be done with brains and not rage my son." It appeared that the young man was this man's son. "I can feel your blood boiling." He put his hand on his shoulder. "After all, it's my blood. But don't forget that Rajveer will be ready to reply to our attack knowing that Rakesh is out of jail so I would say it would be very foolish to attack him right now." He took a brief pause as if his devilish mind was mapping out an intelligent plan. He assured his son and brother that in time they shall take revenge for everything.
Back at Rajveer's fortress many changes had taken place. Naina was free to roam around as long as she was always accompanied by one attendant, therefore in her words it didn't appear she had any freedom at all.
Still she took advantage of whatever she got and tried to spend it in her own way. She created her own world where she was able to dismiss everything else out of existence. And she had found just the perfect spot for it, which was a beautiful maid fountain somewhere amidst the lavish gardens. She fell in love with it the moment she set her eyes on it as it was enchanting. The statue of the maiden was carved to niche that she almost looked alive. The soft chirping of the birds surrounding the water gave her a release to think there was some sort of civilization amongst the pack of beasts.
Alas she was very much unaware of the fact that the fountain was right in front of Rajverer's bedroom. He had it customarily made especially for his love for the Italian maiden carved in it. As it was he had to have the best in the world.
As she continued to spend hours just sitting there everyday lost into the soft music of the dripping water and the sweet songs of the birds, he also spent hours just staring at her from his room window. It was as if the place was just made for her and the Italian maiden's beauty was nothing in front of her's.
For a change she actually was there and not just depict of his fantasy. That way he could enjoy without disturbing her. He simply loved her simplicity of how she enjoyed the smallest things like the birds and the flowing water. He was ready to offer her the world yet he still had left to learn that she was happier in her own world.
For some reason Naina always felt as if His eyes remained on her whilst she sat there yet she voluntarily dismissed it all the time because she wanted to just remain in her serene world with nothing else around. Maybe it was just a way for her to escape from reality, yet she was ready to do anything for it.
Next day
There was a big surprise for Naina early in the morning when she found the maid packing her bags. For the first instance her heart leaped thinking that she was finally set free and could go back home yet it soon went into misery after she asked what was going on. Apparently the only answer she got was that Rajveer was set on a business trip and she was accompanying him.
Once again she felt constrained as if the world was closing up on her. It was true that she was going away from that environment yet still as a prisoner and not free. Where were they going? How long for and what will happen next? With those running thoughts she never realized when she had gotten ready and had followed the maid all the way to the car waiting for her outside to lead her to the airport.
It was only when they were airborne she realized that she sat in Rajveer's private jet with him sitting opposite engrossed into the morning paper. She took sometime looking around silently and she had to admit that he definitely had good taste. Everything was well organized inside the cabin and the posh leather couch she sat on was so comfortable that she could just close her eyes and fall into deep slumber.
However his soft cough brought her back to the point that once again he had kidnapped her without her will. She sure felt like picking up the fork on the adjacent table and stabbing him for doing such harsh things to her but she knew it was acting on her stupidity and nothing else. "Where are you taking me?" She demanded an answer. Yet the partition of the broadsheet remained between them as he decided to ignore her. Her nostrils flared. "I think I just asked you a question." Again she got the same response which totally annoyed her to the core. She said so many bad words to him in her mind that she knew she could never say to his face.
Another two minutes passed as she glared at him. She couldn't believe he took around like that as if she was his slave. "You still haven't answered me where are you taking me?" To her dismay his behavior remained the same. It was the limit so without thinking twice she grabbed the paper out of his hands. "Answer my question damn it!" She was really fumed up.
What was further surprising was that Rajveer remained his calm self only to show how well in control he always was. He stared at her hot flushed face which made her even more attractive. He smiled and went forward towards her.
Like always his move made her shudder and she moved real back into her couch as if she could hide away in it.
That didn't stop him and he continued to move forward until he was almost in her lap. Then he stared at her dove like eyes keeping them fixed only on him. He didn't know what it was about them yet he simply got lost in those pools as if there was nothing like them at all.
Naina also stared at him as she didn't have any choice with the increased proximity. Her heart pounded twice the speed and it made her insides turn upside down. The feeling both made her comfortable and uncomfortable. Comfortable for the reasons as somewhere deep down she enjoyed him being so close and uncomfortable because she was always unaware of what went on in his mind. What was he going to do next?
Out of anxiety she bit her lower lip and Rajveer slightly hissed as she shouldn't have done that. It simply heightened his senses and the urge to touch those lips. Out of hunger his lips slightly parted with the tip of his tongue hanging out.
He would have fulfilled his challenge of kissing her if they wouldn't have been interrupted by Abhimanyu. Rajveer must have cursed him several times under his breath each time he decided to pop up at the wrong time.
Then again business was business so he got up to leave with him but before that he looked down at her and saw she looked rather too pale than before. "Naina, eat the food." He ordered and then left.
Only after he was gone that she broke out of the trance and regained composure. "What are you doing Naina?" she cursed herself aloud. It had happened again when she couldn't control herself and her emotions were all over the place. She just leaned back and thought over the incident wishing it never took place. Yet reality was that it did and she had allowed it. However she did wonder that if he would have kissed her right then, then would she have kissed him back? How would it have felt? "Oh it can't happen, just stop thinking about it." She vigorously shook her head.
Just then Rajveer returned and was rather disappointed to see the food trolley remained untouched. He shook his head and sat down in his seat. He fixed his stern look on her. "You know Naina I thoroughly detest those who disobey my orders."
That look gave chills in her spine as she remembered how dangerous he actually was behind that attractive posture. His dangerous look was enough to scare her and when he pushed the food trolley toward her, she took a few bits as ordered.
The soft couch took into his lean frame as he sat back against it waiting for her to finish. It was true he had a different way of showing affection yet it didn't mean he didn't know how to take care of others.
The food was delicious and she had to admit that Rajveer was taking good care of her even in his harsh beast like manner. Her anger had died down several levels and once again she asked the question but much softly. "Please do you mind telling me where you're taking me?"
A broad smile appeared on his tight face. "That is much better." He crossed his arms across his chest. "If you talk to me in this tone then I'll answer all your questions." He picked up the newspaper she had thrown earlier and began reading it. "We're going to Venice as I've got some important business to handle over there."
She almost laughed at the thought, "Then why are you taking me, didn't you trust me enough that in your absence I won't try and escape?" Even though she knew the answer she still felt like asking.
Rajveer looked over the paper. "As a matter of fact, I don't trust you at all." He took a brief pause. "You're too naughty to be trusted alone and I'm not a fool to let you go away that easily." He turned the page without lifting his head. "Rajveer apni saari keemti cheez apne paas rakhta hain," He gave her a quick glance, "Samjhi?" Then he resumed back to his reading.
Of course she didn't agree and wanted to protest but she knew there was no point so she finished off the food in silence and then soon relaxed into the softness of the couch and before she knew it she had fallen asleep.
Venice
It was a long journey and they reached Venice late at night. His car waited on the runway right outside before the jet parked itself to position.
The landing was a bit harsh which woke Naina up and with drowsy eyes she looked outside the window and saw they were on land. They had arrived and a new journey was going to begin for her.
Rajveer first exited with two of his guards and then Naina followed making sure she wasn't left behind. Now that she was there she knew she had to stick around with him in that strange unknown country.
Venice at night looked beautiful and Naina couldn't stop admiring it through the car window. She couldn't wait to explore it if he ever allowed her to do so. She had never been there and had only dreamt of it. She couldn't believe it was true and she was in one of the most romantic cities. If only things had been different like she had come there with her Prince Charming rather than Mr. Arrogant.
Her thoughts came to a halt as soon as the car stopped. She looked outside and feasted her eyes onto the amazingly beautiful hotel building. It was lit up with colourful lights making it almost magical and she felt like a child enjoying Christmas decorations.
The Chauffeur opened her door and escorted her out. She wasn't used to the custom so found it awkward but she saw how Rajveer had already made his way through the giant glass doors of the hotel so she had to hurry or he would have another chance to do something nasty to her.
Then again she took her time as she got lost into the spell binding interiors. The Italian paintings were definitely a work of art and something she had only seen in pictures.
A lobby staff came and alerted her about her room and escorted her towards the elevators to reach to it. The royal treatment overwhelmed her and it made her forget how and why she was there and for what purpose. She just wanted to enjoy.
The elevator stopped onto the top floor, where there were all the presidential suites and as she entered the one which was opened for her, she gaped at the extravagance of it. The luxurious suite must have been twice the size of her apartment and that was just the hall. She couldn't imagine how big the bedroom was going to be. Had Rajveer booked that suite just for her?
"You must be really tired after the long flight." Rajveer came from one of the rooms in the suite. "Come we must rest." He walked further expecting her to follow yet as always he got the opposite from her.
It soon struck Naina that she was going to stay in the same room as him. It appalled her and she burst out on him. "How dare you think I would share a room with you?" The fire in her ignited once again even with the tiredness catching on. "You can't force me to do that."
In return he sighed. "Naina, it's a bit too late to be saying that after living in the same house with me from the past many days."
She had a reply ready, "you forced me to do that but I won't let you do anything here, you understand?" She stood confidently. "Me tumhe is baar apni mann maani nahi karne dungi. I won't live in the same room as you, no matter how hard you try."
She attempted to leave yet he was quicker to block her way. His steps forward, took her backwards and she could see that he was angered again. When she always knew the outcome then why she tried to fight? With that nervous thought she ended against a door and then she knew she was trapped once again within his web.
The closeness made both breathless as their bodies almost molded to become one yet that time he didn't even tease her and straight away his hand went towards the handle turning it to open. "This is your room."
Her steps took her inside the room quickly and it was not only to save herself from him but also to hide herself for being so foolish. Every time she ended up doing something stupid and it gave him another chance to humiliate her showing how godly he was. It was an irony of how the devil thought he could do godly charms. She had to remain strong enough to go through everything otherwise she would lose and he would win. She wouldn't allow that at all.
Middle of the night
It was a dark night yet the shining moon was enough for the two engrossed lovers lashing out their passion for each other. A bare Naina was thrashed against the rustic hay whilst a panting Rajveer absorbed the sweet taste of each part of her body one by one.
Generally the obnoxious smell of the stable was unbearable yet the essence of each other's dew was intoxicating enough for them to not smell anything else and just be absorbed into the magical moment.
She held his back fierce as her tip remained between his teeth and a short squirm came out of her mouth. As his cold tongue went up and down around it, she simply lost her senses and closed her eyes to tolerate the uncontrollable sensation.
There was a different kind of hunger within Rajveer as if he totally wanted to eat her up completely. He left her tip and captured her lips into a tigerish kiss, biting onto her lower lip as both his hands pressed onto her chest vigorously. He kneaded them as he deepened the kiss totally leaving her into shambles.
It wasn't enough to just end there and he flipped her over and showered her beautiful arched back with kisses. He rubbed against her back thighs, totally arousing her and wanting more and more.
The tables turned around as she took over and threw him against the hay. Her soft sloppy kisses over his chest made him tingle and his rough hands held onto her hair tight.
The world spun around as both got absorbed into each other so much that they could ignite the whole stable on fire.
Was it the chill outside or simply the horror of the dream? Naina was unsure as she woke up drenched in cold sweat. She couldn't believe she just had that erotic dream and that too with the one man whom she hated the most in the world. How could she have thought all that? Her body had goosebumps all over as if she could feel his touch for real on her body.
However she had to admit that she couldn't stop thinking about everything that happened from the deep kissing to the soft biting. His body had molded so well with her's that her heart thumped in excitement. The thought tightened her tips and it became difficult for her to control her hidden desires. She felt that if he would have come in front of her right then and then, she would end up making the biggest mistake of her life. "Shut up Naina!" she barked at herself for being so ridiculous. "Nothing is going to happen."
She fell back onto her pillows yet she knew it wasn't going to be easy to go back to sleep. More like she was afraid to get similar horrific dreams which were going to leave her entirely restless. The anger within her boiled out yet she wasn't sure was it because nothing of the sort would happen or she never wanted anything of that sort to happen. "Oh nothing has happened and shall never happen. Just go to sleep Naina!" she tried to convince herself to calm down but it was harder than she thought and the rest of the night was spent in misery.
Next morning
Just when she had some grace of peaceful slumber, she was awakened by a loud knock on her room door. It was difficult to ignore so she had to get out of bed to open it.
Of course she was disappointed to see that it was a call from the master who expected her to be at the breakfast table immediately. What was with him and feeding her all the time? Did he expect her to become plump in order to enjoy her more? Then she just stomp her foot for thinking such vulgar ideas and to just grow up. "Stop behaving like a teenager." She cursed herself in her mind after following the orders and going towards the neatly laid out glass table in one corner of the suite.
It was beautifully laid out with expensive sliver cutlery and polished porcelain white plates. The decorated doilies were laid out perfectly under each plate. Everything was so perfect that sometimes she wondered if she lived a dream of that luxury or was it really happening.
She sat down nervously still with the erotic thoughts running in her mind, due to which she couldn't find the courage to stare up at him. Not because she hated the very sight of him but because she was afraid to show her blush. Then again she had to stop it as it was just getting irritating.
Then again she couldn't stop the urge to stare at him as he ate breakfast. Her sight rested upon his each move as if she was hypnotized.
It wasn't initially, yet when he took the cup of tea towards his lips, his eyes gave her a glance and he saw how she sat there staring at him. Something looked different about her that morning. Her eyes were more swollen than before and her hair was a total mess. Had she cried again last night? "Did you sleep well?"
His sudden question snapped her out of the trance and she stammered. "W...what...no...I mean yes..." She felt like a total fool so to get the attention off her she just grabbed a piece of Italian bread from the basket in front of her and gobbled it up looking elsewhere but at him.
Even though Rajveer knew something was wrong with her he decided to leave it for then and would ask her later.
What Naina was unable to comprehend was that at one point he was harsh and authoritative with her by kidnapping and imprisoning her without her will. Then at another point he became that concerned sensitive person as if he really cared what she felt. She really felt like shouting back at him that she hadn't had a peaceful night sleep since the day she met him and he went around asking her that dumb question. How dare he? What the hell did he want and why didn't he just let her go?
Breakfast was finally over only until Rajveer had made sure Naina had, had proper proportion to keep her fit till lunch. "I've got a meeting to attend right now so I'll be seeing you in a few hours." He pushed his chair back and stood up wiping his hands and mouth. "Until then you're not allowed to leave this suite." Right at that moment he noticed how she was all ready to protest against it, yet he was also prepared to shun her. "Just do as you're told Naina." His strict powerful tone appeared again. "Or you know what happens with disobedience." With that he left to his room.
An hour later she still remained fretting over the idea of being stuck in that suite. She had locked herself in her bedroom yet felt terribly suffocated. She must have cursed him more than hundred times by then since there was nothing else to do but just sit idle on her bed. That's what she was afraid of because it only led her to think about what happened in the dream last night and of how she would enjoy it to happen in real life. Then she would shout at herself for being ludicrous. "Who does he think he is keeping me locked up here? I'm not going to tolerate it anymore." The rebel in her grew once more as she stood up with excitement. However the knock on the door halted her and she calmed down. Perhaps he must have returned so she had to behave in order to not anger him.
It was a surprise when she opened the door as after a long time she had faced some very friendly faces. Four to five women entered with packages informing her that they were from Da, Gallerie Chateau and Rajveer had ordered all those dresses for her. "Madam, try out the dresses which fit you well." One woman spoke in her heavy Italian accent.
It was as if all of Naina's anger vanished after she laid her eyes onto the amazing dresses. They must have been the most expensive in the city as the fabric and the work looked outstanding. She forgot everything and just got absorbed into the magical moment as the women helped her try out each dress. She felt like a princess being decked up.
Choosing was impossible as all of them were fantastic and looked equally well on her. Then again she knew she could keep them all since Rajveer had already bought them. Yet still she felt awkward to keep them. With her status she could have never imagined ever buying such a dress let alone wear it. And there she was living a dream which was too good to be true.
"Madam," another woman came towards Naina with a stunning navy blue dress, "Rajveer Sir wanted you to wear this dress when you go to the party with him tonight."
As Naina felt the soft silky fabric of the dress she fell in love with it and forgot about rejecting everything. She tried it on and it simply enhanced her effervescent beauty further. The idea of going to the party with him wearing that dress was unbelievable in itself as she hadn't thought he would take her anywhere publicly. Then again he was unpredictable.
"And also this to compliment it."
The next thing which was shown to her simply left her spellbound. It was a very intricately cut delicate diamond set which looked the prettiest out of the world. As she tried the necklace and the earrings on, she looked nothing less than a queen. And of course she sure felt like royalty wearing it.
In the evening
Apparently she hadn't seen him whole day since his meeting was everlasting. Not like she missed him that much as she had the company of the women for most of the day along with the grand prizes. Yet all of it did remind her of him since he had chosen every single piece. He had great taste if nothing else was great about him.
Rajveer had returned back to get ready for the party yet before he went to his room he nearly lost balance as what stood in front of him was a goddess of beauty. More like a goddess of enchantment. It was as if he had depicted the Italian maiden in reality. Was it really the Naina he had fallen for or had someone else taken her place? Perhaps her true beauty had emerged and it was still left to be seen.
She stood in front of him decked up in the Navy blue dress he had chosen for her along with the diamond set. That strong passionate gaze of his always made her nervous as her knees went weak.
He took few steps towards her yet maintained distance to not lose control again like always. There was always time later. "It's good to see you being an obedient lady." He smiled.
In reply she smirked, "not like you leave me any choice." She raised her eyebrows high. "If I won't do it by will then you'll simply force me."
Rajveer nodded, "Good that you're learning the rules." His posture changed from casual to formal. "Now if you'll excuse me, I'll get ready and we shall leave in five minutes." Then he disappeared in his room leaving her wondering what was in store for her that night. What new drama awaited her?
