Part 10

"I trust you"

He didn't want to hear more but wanted to savor the moment and he did. She gasped clutching his shirt tightly when finally he met his lips with her and she permitted his mouth to explore hers in a long and deliberate kiss. She didn't want him to break this contact ever and closed her eyes in that blissful moment opening the door of her heart of this man'for her husband.

He pulled back and they touched their foreheads together still panting for breath, he had lifted her chin with his finger and had made her look back in his eyes, the shyness, those floating emotions in her eyes, her slightly parted lips swollen from his kiss, her flashing pink cheeks and those brief looks she was giving him through her lashes made blood rushed into his veins. He never thought he could want someone in his life so desperately like he wanted her'his legal wife. Why was he feeling hesitant to take a step towards her? Why was he feeling nervous to get closer to her when she was all his? She was his with all her soul. These new emotions filled his heart with over welcoming feelings'happiness and the smile touched the corners of his lips.

She gasped still lowering her lashes, "Arnav you're getting late'I think you--"

He hushed placing a finger on her lips, "let me see you for some time'don't stop me. I'm going to kiss you again in order to silence you if you said another word"

Oh God! What he was saying? How boldly he was expressing his desires? He supposed it had those lush lips so close that made him propose something so flagrantly outrageous.

"Arnav..you"

"I had warned you," Arnav spoke huskily as his lips hovered inches from hers and she gasped feeling the same desire rolling in her heart to taste his lips again, to feel his passion, his desire for her.

She felt the searing heat of his mouth as it angled across hers, she lowered her lashes in defeat and he again sealed his lips with her but this time his kiss was more passionate, demanding than before, she didn't resist a bit and let his hands explore her back and his tongue to explore her mouth. Arnav nudged her lips apart and thrust his tongue into her mouth, groaning with the sheer pleasure of her sweet, bold response to him as she touched her tongue to his and stroked, they both were experiencing those feelings that they had never felt or experienced before.

Khushi felt the heat of his body pressing against her and couldn't remove away the effect of these new overflowing desires. Arnav knew what his heart was demanding'he wanted to claim all what was his but he knew it wasn't the right time, he willingly has given her time to explore these new feelings and he has to keep on hand his desires before he would take another step and lose her trust in him. He gasped pulling his face away and it took him almost a minute to keep hold on himself, he breathed deeply and then stable himself losing his grip on her and let her pull her face away. She looked equally nervous, disturbed at this new sensation, feeling that was havocking her body'her heart.

She slightly pulled free of his arms and stepped back holding her breath, her face mottled with shyness, He licked his lips but the sweet taste of her lips still remained on his lips.Arnav gave her flashed cheeks to a quick glance and his eye fixed at her face, he couldn't have believed he had kissed her not once but twice, she had initiated the first time but couldn't comprehend what had moved him to do it second time.it wasn't only the effect of that intimate moment but there was more'something else that filled his body with new feelings'emotions that were unfamiliar..He thought and then shied away quickly observing the nervous look that she was giving him through her lashes. He sucked in a breath taking one step closer to her.

" Khushi did I hurt you?"

This time there was deep concern in his voice that startled her thoughts and she nodded negatively immediately .He lit the smile on his lips and carefully holding her cheek in his palm, he leaned and kissed her forehead lingering his lips for some time, "Thanks for trusting me..i promise I'll never break your trust"

He whispered with her skin and then moved away giving her a soft smile that was filled with gratitude she smiled back at him. He sighed with relief and still with the soft smile left for office.

Khushi gasped several time closing the door after his departure, she still couldn't believe it was she who took initiative towards their intimacy but felt strange comfort, peace in her heart that whatever she did was done with all her heart and she hadn't even a little bit regret for doing that. She touched her lips with her fingertip. She imagined she could still feel the pressure of his mouth on hers, and was surprised at the tingling heat that pooled low in her belly. She was amazed at how she had responded to his kisses, his caresses, a color crept over her cheeks to confess she still was yearning for his touch'his kisses, his caresses. Shaking her head to clear it of thoughts that were far too erotic, sensational she made her way towards the kitchen to complete her chorus. Life had taken a beautiful turn in her life and she was determined to cherish what life, her fate was offering her so openly.

It was the best day or pleasant day of his life-a very different from the other or usual days of his life, certainly, a unique day-He thought smiling to himself. From his childhood days he had learned to share his sorrows, his happiness, his deprives with none other but himself'he grew up in an orphanage, his whole life he longed for a family'a true friend'a companion but he always thought himself an unlucky person to get such a blessing of God but suddenly Life had given him what he longed for. He gasped with the thought and then tried to shrug them, her acceptance towards him'towards their relationship'her first initiative towards him'her trust in him touched the deep chord of his heart and this time a broad smile of contentment, happiness touched his lips fading away the deprives of past bringing the new hopes of the future.

Arranging the dinner table, she finally sank down on a chair and sighed with relief, finally everything was prepared before his arrival and today for the first time she had given sometime to her appearance, although she had chosen to wear a simple purple dress but today she wore matching bangles in her arm and worn some make-up too adding some more effort to her appearance and according to her last glance to herself in the mirror she had made self-confession that 'she was looking pretty'.

Precap.

"i'm sorry Khushi" He bent and kissed her forehead and then taking her in his arms led towards bed.
