The Quill Part 2- - Page 35

Both Pia and Gaurav are the same. Rude and selfish.

What right gaurav has to tell Tara to leave her share? He has to learn to manage with his share. Whatever and however much it may be.

But there will not be any money unless they sell the house and/or the store. Selling is the last thing she wants.

I am happy about one thing. Tara does not back down when Pia insults her. She gives it right back.

They both drank in the sight of each other like two thirsty animals

“You sleep here?” his lips twitched

She sat up in shock

Gaurav was in the other room and looked like Pradyut didn’t know

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Spitting fire

“don’t get up” he panicked

“That’s OK” she was nervous and her face lost all color

“I was going to go off to work” he leaned back on the window again

“Pradyut” “Umm” she didn’t know to tell him

“Hmm?”

“I am … mujhe pata nahi I am not sure if Pia told you”

“I know” he said grimly arms across his chest

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Pia had texted him

“Unbelievable Prad”

“Now what?” he called

“I cannot believe how she talks to me”

“What did she say now?” he chuckled

“Her brother is over there, don’t be surprised if your house is emptied out”

“Are you worrying about me?” he laughed

“Kya bewaqoofi hai tumhari, kisi bhi sadak se u get married to someone, she has an equally trashy brother and they both scam you and you are so nonchalant about it”

“Are you done?”

“The guy was going to get it from me… the whole family is….. ughhhh I don’t even want to go there”

“Yet you are”

“This is not about me doooood, he literally stood in the way of the elevator demanding I let him in”

Pradyut was irritated about Gaurav without a doubt

But Pia was annoying him more right now

“I suggest you just ask for what you want, Umeshji or Balmukundhi will go grab it from my place”

“So I cant go to my brother’s house now?”

“What do u want me to say?”

“Just don’t be physically hurt” Pia was vicious

Pradyut hung up

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“So that’s why you are here?” Taaruni bristled

Getting off the bed… she looked luscious in her black drawstring shorts and a black tee with hearts all over

“Whatt?”

“Did Pia tell you Gaurav and I are going to rob you?”

Pradyut’s expression changed quick

But he composed himself

“AH so she did” Taaruni was outraged forgetting briefly her culprit brother was right here

“I am supposed to explain myself why I returned early?” he growled

In olive green pants and black polo tee and freshly showered and the perfectly fine marine hair cut he looked great

She went into the bathroom and slammed the door

Appearing 20 minutes later, wiping her face until it turned red

He was RIGHt there on his phone

“care to explain?”

“You know?” she panicked again

“Whatt?” he was confused again

“Umm… Gaurav ne raat ko bahut pi lee so maine usko yahi rukne ko kaha hai Pradyut” she whispered her voice trembling with fear mixed with self doubt

His eyes opened wide

He had no idea

“HE is here?” his expression changed

“Mmm” she nodded fearfully approaching him

“Why did you not bother to ask me first?” he hissed closing the gap

He turned and walked briskly to toward the door

“Pradyut…. Please, Pradyut… no… Prad… I am begging you” she wailed softly

He was just goingt o bolt the door

He did and turned around and walked toward her

She stumbled back until she hit giant windows

“Pradyut”

“What is HE doing here?”

“He is my BROTHER you…” her eyes were bloodshot, her face was flaming in anger but her voice was barely a whisper

“I don’t care Taara” Pradyut ground out

“You are here to see if he robbed you, aren’t ya?” she expressed horror

“Why should I trust him again?” he demanded

She stared at him dumbfounded

“Ask him to get out”

“No I wont” she stood her ground, a tear streamed down her left cheek

“I mean it Taara, I don’t want the man in my house”

His words hurt her beyond belief

Gaurav could be a giant a-h-le right now, but she loved him

“Your sister got to you didn’t she?”

“No… nope, I got to myself” “Hes leaving right now” he whispered on her upturned face

“No he will leave when he wants to” she breathed audibly lashing those words out in a semi whisper

“I can do the honors and throw him out”

“Do that Pradyut… then I will show you” she smiled devilishly

“What now? You will leave too?” he scorned, looking up from a phone buzz, his black eye lifting to capture hers

“On the contrary I will never leave” she said slowly. She didn’t by nature show any theatrics when she was angry and today she felt quite handicapped.

“I wish I could yell and scream and intimidate him” “I would use so many nasty words… sigh!”

“what? is this a f----g bargaining now?” he demanded

“Says the guy that brokered his own wedding deal with lawyers in the thick of the night” her voice was hoarse and quivering holding back tears

Theory of sublimation was so much BS she told herself. There was no freaking away to not be conscious of this man and his sizzling stare

Cool sensuous February morning rain fell outside, kissing the palm fronds in the balcony

She flicked her fingers against his collarbone, her thumb sinking into the hollow, his pulse was throbbing as wildly as hers, his thumb stroked her wrist pushing the black bead bracelet carelessly

In a lighting fast movement he moved forward, careening into her and sending her against the curtain folds. She was thrilled she had elicited such a response from him upon stroking his throat spontaneously like that

She found herself trapped between the window and his sinewy body

“Taara” he groaned first

“Pradyut… I”

Neither said a word, just the gaze glued on each others face, groaned at the same time, out loud, as if someone had released their fingers wedged between the door frame

His mouth rough and urgent, his entire body pushing against her urgently

The week long separation too much for him to handle his body conveyed, he spread his legs out to accommodate her soft crumbling legs

Every inch of him was firm and aroused and she rubbed herself slowly against him in disbelief that she was causing him to react this way

His hands ran up and down her sides impatiently, as if he was urging her to lift her leg, she did just that bending one knee, he gurgled in pleasure, putting his hand behind the knee and holding firmly as he pressed his need against her

His other hand running up and down her bare thighs in those skimpy shorts, flirting under the edge at the bottom but not quite cupping the curve fully, made a low hungry sound and finally cupped her curve and squeezed, and his hand made the intimate slow journey up and down her inner thigh, causing her to yelp a sob, the velvety friction his thumb caused against her soft inner thigh too much to bear

His lips still locked on hers, she pressed harder against him trying to somehow grab the explosive thrill of the stroking, trying to achieve full pleasure fully clothed

Her sobs caught his attention

His left hand had left the crook of her knee and was busy playing with the front of her tee

“Ur bra is almost invisible” he promised cheekily

To prove a point he slid his hand under her tee and felt the sheer lace straining ready to snap

When his thumb flicked her crest she lost it throwing her head back dragging his head with him as she devoured the cavern of his mouth

They moved rhythmically against each other, “U arouse me just by looking at me Taara” he sucked on her chin

She wanted more, she pulled his lips toward her for yet another soul drenching kiss, her hand pressing his hips on her lower body, the soft whimper released from her lips appreciating his arousal

“I missed u spitfire” he growled

Will guy ever admit why he married her ?

Good he locked the door or Gaurav would have walked in 😂.

Pia should listen to herself for once. She is full of complaint when Tara defends herself. What about all the crap she says?

Pradyut has every reason to want Gaurav gone. But as a sister, she couldn't just throw him out in his drunk state.

They are explosive together despite all that stands between them.

Spitting fire

no words but 🔥
