Hola everyone!
I for one have been impatiently waiting for the much hyped romantic scene between Saras and Kumud for quite a few days now and since patience isn't my best virtue, I decided to pen an OS to make the wait bearable.. Actually the first line of this OS got stuck in my head as soon as I heard the rumors about the scene and since then I have been itching to write it but haven't had the time.. I haven't put in an age-related warning but do let me know if you feel I should 🤔
As always, do let me know how you like it/hate it 😳
Saras - Kumud OS: Beyond Love..
"Stop me Kumud.. Because I won't be able to stop myself," he whispered heatedly against the column of her neck. The words registered somewhere at the back of her mind but she couldn't make sense of them. How could she? How could she when he was so close? When she could feel the erratic rhythm of his heart beneath her palm as she clutched his shirtfront in helpless abandon? When she could feel her own heart racing to the rhythm of his? How could she make sense of anything he was saying when all she could sense was the passion that was enveloping them both in its turbulent embrace? The shivers that ran through her with each touch of his built on themselves in cascades, till Kumud felt she could no longer breathe. She simply held on to him tighter, trusting him to keep her safe even as she felt the ground slip beneath her feet.
He couldn't seem to get enough of touching her, of holding her, of feeling her. The love he felt for her surpassed any emotion, any sensation Saras had ever felt in his life. And right now, that love had unleashed with a power that even he could not contain. She was his soul mate. He felt it in every breath he took, every time he looked into her eyes, every time she helplessly responded to his touch. Now he could not imagine a life without her, without being able to love her. His hand moved down her arm and caressed her waist. Her lips parted on a gasp and his attention was drawn to the moist fullness of her lips. His hand continued to trace the curve of her waist; along the kamarbandh that had enchanted him since the first time he'd heard it chiming. With the ease of a lover, he slowly tugged at it. As the cool silver slid over her waist, Kumud felt as if her skin were on fire and ice at the same time.
She couldn't bear it anymore. She struggled to free herself, put some distance between them just so that she could breathe again. She turned away from him but he caught her hand. His warmth enveloped her again as she felt him come closer to her. His breath caressed her shoulder just before he kissed her shoulder. She shuddered at the touch of his lips on her skin. "Saras.." Kumud whispered his name on a breathless whisper.. His name sounding to Saras as if it was meant for her lips only. He responded with another slow, heated kiss. With a slow tug, the knot at the back of her blouse came undone and he ran a loving hand down her back making her quiver.
She pulled her hair free and let it cover her from his heated gaze. In response, he simply came in front of her. With an intense hooded gaze that evoked sensations in her that at once scared her and excited her, he picked her up gently in his arms and carried her to bed. He laid her down ever so gently, the gorgeous cascade of her hair spread out over his pillow. He loved her so much.. He didn't want to just love her, he wanted to worship her.. The strength, the spirit, the beauty - everything that defined her, he wanted to worship. He wanted to Kumud's toes curled at the intensity in his gaze and she looked away. He reached over for the flowers near his bedside. Never taking his eyes off her, he plucked off the petals and showered them on her.
The soft, smooth petals caressed her skin and Kumud felt goose bumps erupt over her skin and she clutched at the bedspread helplessly. Saras leaned over her and slowly blew away each petal - a stab of jealousy pricking his heart that those petals were closer to his Kumud than he was. Every petal he blew off of her, he placed a soft, gentle kiss instead. Both of them had crossed the point of no return. Now all that remained, as they gave themselves to each other and sought each other with equal fervor, were the soft whispers and sighs of love that had found its fulfillment in its most beautiful form.. Their souls reached out and bound with each other as Saras and Kumud completed each other the way only they could. Saras kissed the lone tear that slid down the corner of Kumud's eye as they catapulted to their ultimate union and the absolute, sheer bliss overtook them both - of becoming one with the one they loved beyond love..
