Part 3 - Deceit
As soon as her lips found his, Rishabh stiffened in her hold as if he had been stoned by a medusa. It took Rishabh good 3 seconds to realize that the sloppy movement of lips against his was indeed Prerna kissing him.
Flustered and almost out of breath, Prerna had barely pulled her lips from his when Rishabh’s hands found the small of her back as he drove her into the wall behind and plastering her body against his, took her lips in a searing kiss.
Prerna’s eyes widened as she felt the length of his body pressed against her and an ache dawned in her nether regions. This is insane.
But there was no stopping Rishabh, he only deepened the kiss by adjusting her face and when Prerna gasped for breath, his tongue found its chance and invaded her mouth. The burn only got worse as Prerna let her fingers thread in his locks and molding herself against his frame, closed her eyes to let the pleasure rock her system.
Never had Anurag kissed her with such intensity. Her entire body was on fire. She was near breathless now and the only air she wanted to survive on, was the one he was exhaling. She had never felt such an overpowering desire in her life. Even with Anur—
Her eyes flew open aghast as the fingers that had Rishabh’s collar bunched up in their claws now pushed against his shoulder bone in an effort to tear his body away from hers. And within the next second or so, Prerna managed to push away Rishabh who almost let out a guttural growl as he balanced himself.
Supporting her throbbing self against the wall, Prerna looked at Rishabh whose chest was heaving almost wildly as he glared at her with an animalistic fury. That fury only highlighted his charm as he tried to comb back his hairs that had come undone owing to Prerna’s ministrations and were now disturbing his sight. He looked ravishing. That was all Prerna could think of as he glared at her offended and then bit down on his lips to control his temper.
So deeply engrossed she had been in admiring him, that she had allowed the very reason of pushing him away take the back seat. It was only when her gaze drifted over his shoulders, did she see the brunette staring at her with mouth wide agape. And the full force of what had transpired a minute ago rammed into her like a monster truck.
She had just kissed Rishabh in her full senses. Yes.Her brain totally hadn’t been bamboozled when she had literally taken Rishabh by surprise. She had been desperate. True.But she had been well aware of the step she was going to take and what consequences it was going to pose.Nonetheless, she had done it simply because she was more than willing to regret her actions rather than cribbing over the steps not taken. She didn’t regret the kiss one bit. Rather she was regretting pushing him away. If only her brain had mustered up Anurag’s name a few seconds later so that she would’ve gotten her fill. But that goddamned guilt was always on her tail!
Ah! She had gone mad. Anurag was lying back in their room unconscious and here she was mulling over the taste that she hadn’t been able to grasp completely. Rishabh’s taste. Wild, dark, musky and chocolaty.
She let her eyes meet Rishabh’s whose eyes had changed back to their calm counterparts and were scrutinizing her.
“Can we talk now?”She asked raising her brow as if just a second ago they hadn’t been going at each other like some animals in heat. Being a Bajaj had its perks. Control and all!
Rishabh’s eyes twinkled as he bit on his knuckles to contain his amusement in check. No wonder, she had been a Bajaj. She had the spunk. He nodded as he directed for her to step out of the room but Prerna only straightened up her spine and narrowed her eyes at him.
“What?” He asked confused as she folded her arms below her breasts and gave a look in the brunette’s direction.
“Send her out”She replied, more like ordered as he turned around to see Sam gaping at him like he was some extinct animal.
“But-
“I gave it to you”,Prerna cut him off, her eyes dead set with mirthlessness.
“What?!” Rishabh enquired puzzled.
“The offer”
Heat rushed up into his body as she uttered the words and he found his unwilling eyes glued to her vicious lips. That smudged lipstick was a proof that he had been there. Screwed big time. And absolutely loving it.
“And so we will talk”, Rishabh nodded.
“Only after she leaves”, Prerna took a step forward.
“It’s late, Prerna”
“So—Prerna’s brows quirked up in bewilderment.
“Where will she go?”
“And why should I care?” And with that she sidestepped Rishabh to pick a robe off the nail and threw it on the brunette’s face.
“Get the hell out ofhere”
With that said Prerna turned around to find Rishabh smiling unceremoniously.
“What?” She barked, “Is she leaving or what?”
“Ofcourse”,Rishabh shook his head as he turned to Sam, “You will find Michael in the lobby. He will get you a room for the night”.
Nodding, Sam fastened the robe around her body and slipped her feet into her heels. “It won’t be asking too much for you to show me the door?” She asked Rishabh.
“As far as I can see,you have eyes too. Use them”. Prerna butted in between as sam chuckled and got up to leave.
“You are quite the handful. You two suit each other well. And since you won’t let me be alone with Rishi, I will give it to you”
Picking up something from under the bed, she opened Prerna’s fist and placed the packet in her hands, “Don’t forget to use it”.
As Sam walked out of the room, Prerna opened her fist only for her entire strong façade to turn red in embarrassment. Leaning over her,Rishabh bit back a smile as he saw Prerna fumbling with the packet.
He just loves chocolate.
“Shall we?” He whispered against her ear as Prerna almost jumped up scared before throwing the packet across the room.
“W-What?” She stammered, the image on the packet clearly flashing in front of her eyes.
Rishabh smirked, “Talk”.
~*~*~*~
“Are we going to discuss my schedule now?” He asked lighting up his cigar.
“No”, Prerna said as she pulled the cigar away and crushed it under her heels, “Smoking kills. More so the people who are in vicinity”
“So- Rishabh shrugged.
Prerna was troubled. She had kissed Rishabh, didn’t regret it, totally enjoyed it and absolutely wanted to continue it. That was clearly not possible for he was no more her husband and she by all means was Anurag’s wife now. She had cheated Anurag, had hurted him already enough in the past and didn’t want to give him another heartache to nurse. Especially when all the things she could be feeling are but some silly feelings of lust and infatuation towards a man who is now in a forbidden territory. Maybe she would have reacted to him in the same way had she not knocked him out in her anxiety.
She looked at Rishabh who was waiting patiently. They had spent months together. He was a very respecting man. Attraction was natural. But was it more? Would she have walked out without a query if she had cherished him?
That’s because you love to participate in pity parties! She cringed internally at the remark.
She had no answers to the questions his existence posed in her life. But right now, she was with Anurag and needed to try her best to be with him.And hope that their lost love or whatever it is will get rekindled with time. Because it will totally stink if she would crave Rishabh while being with Anurag, who apparently she had craved a little too badly during her initial months with Rishabh.
Initial months! And after that? That craving and need and love had simmered down as unadulterated happiness had invaded her life as Rishabh’s mistress. But he had to go and serve her the divorce papers! Jerk! Why should she overthink her feelings when he is just too busy making out with a random woman every day!
That’s right. Maybe this phase of Bajaj craving will too pass and undiluted happiness will knock again.And there will be no confusing separation to deal with.
“Mrs Bas-
“Whatever happened between us today-
“ will stay between us” Rishabh completed. “Consider it forgotten! I can understand you were desperate and things happened. It’s fine.”
Prerna gritted her teeth at his nonchalance and chose to ignore him, “was but an accident. I will be going back to Anurag, hoping that our paths will never cross!”
“Deal”, Rishabh agreed, “But I’d like to ask one thing, why is it so quiet? Where is Mr.Basu?! He should’ve been here threatening me with police or something on charges of kidnapping you or whatever…”
“That—Prerna trailed as she let out a sigh, “Those sleeping meds hadn’t expired right?”
“Wha—
It took Rishabh a second to notice the ring Prerna’s eyes were focused on.
“You can’t be serious, Prerna. You really—
Rishabh looked at Prerna with incredulous eyes as she looked away incredibly embarrassed.
“I. can’t. believe .it!”Rishabh gasped astonished.
“I-I don’t know why..but I just…” Prerna fumbled for words as Rishabh’s face split into a smile and before Prerna realized, he had taken her into his arms.
“Thanks, Prerna!” He smiled while she melted in his embrace, his happiness infecting her too.
Pulling away, he looked at her with a smile so adorable that Prerna couldn’t tear her eyes away from his happy visage. Whatever it was about going back to Anurag and forgetting Rishabh! Easier said than done. Hah!
“You know you don’t have to worry about Mr. Basu. He won’t know a thing. But maybe you should change into something comfortable. This dress is way too heavy for your taste”,And he strode towards his wardrobe.
“I will change back in the suite”, Prerna replied, puzzled by his behavior.Who was she kidding? He was an eternal enigma!
“You sure that’s a good idea. I’m just saying that Anurag won’t be waking anytime soon and rather than wallowing in guilt of deed that’s done and dusted, why don’t we play a game of chess or go or something. I’m not really tired and you’ve already ousted Sam so—
“And what do you mean by that?” Prerna flipped, leaving her seat.
Rishabh chuckled. Her jealousy was so obvious.
“Are you staying?” He replied with a question of his choosing, his neck craned towards her.
“Yes”, she scoffed and had almost plopped on her seat when she shot up as if nails had pricked her butt.
“But aapke pass ladkiyon ke kapde—
Her words were muffled by the track suit thrown on her face.
“--nhi hai. I don’t cross dress. But you can. Fashion’s rather fluid for women. For men too, if their tastes are inclined that is!” He shrugged as Prerna rolled her eyes at his smart reply and went into the washroom.
While Rishabh just let his frame fall freely on the bed with his eyes closed.
Jo aapka hai usse aapse koi cheen nhi sakta
Maybe, Prerna is actually his to be! He smiled. Maybe, love will give him another shot.
