CHAPTER-35.
The storm raged on outside,but both Meera and Prithvi were unaware of it,as a storm brewed inside the room between them..Quietly they stared at each other breathing harshly..Time and reality forgotten by both..Nothing mattered to them then,except themselves..Nothing mattered except the gnawing hunger they felt for each other..Nothing mattered except the magnetic irresistible pull they felt for each other..
Another loud thunder sound,brought Prithvi to reality,and he quickly tried to calm himself,and remember what he was supposed to be doing..When he remembered the first aid kit he was holding,and then he remembered Meera's wound..On looking up,he also finally noticed,the room was bathed in darkness,except for sudden flashes of thunderlight,and realized the electicity was gone..
"Ummm..Need to light candles.."He murmured as explanation,as he walked towards the bedside table,just beside where Meera was sitting on the bed..He tried to keep his distance from her,in order to keep his sanity intact..
Opening the drawer,of the bedside table,he took out a large candle,and lighted it,and placed it on the bedside table..And then in the flickering candle light of the candle he turned to face Meera,and what he saw took his breath away.She was looking ethereal in the flickering candlelight..
Her sharp features,which were partly in shadow,and partly highlighted in the flickering candlelight,made something inside him groan out in agony..She was staring at him with those large doe-like eyes,wide open,with confusion and need in them..She did not seem to know,what she wanted,but Prithvi understood loud and clear,what she, or more specifically her body and also his,hungered for,was banned for both of them..
"Prithvi..?"Meera called out in a soft arousing voice..
Oh no!Not again!Please God!Not again!Prithvi desperately started praying,as her magical soft voice started creating goosebumps on his skin,and his treacherous body instantenuously started reacting at an alarming rate..
"Prithvi..?"Meera called out again,and this time softly touched his free hand,and instantly electric heat,started passing through his body,from the point where her fingers were touching his..
Abruptly Prithvi removed his hand away from hers,and tried not to notice the shocked and hurt look she was giving him,at that act..
"Ummm.."Prithvi found his throat was choked with an unknown emotion,and a totally alien feeling was taking over his senses..This girl-woman just did not affect him physically,but she was making his heart squeeze with pain at her slight hurt look too..
"Ummm..I think we should clean up that wound of yours.."Prithvi finally managed to say.Sitting beside her,he opened the first aid kit,got some cotton balls soaked in antiseptic,and got the instant band-aid ready,to be put on her wound..Being the perfectionist he was,after getting everything ready and keeping them close at hand for his convenience,he reached for her face,so that he could turn it to face the candlelight,and see her wound better..
"No need!"Snapped out Meera,pushing his hand away,and also turning her face away from him.
So the beauty is offended at my behavior!Realised Prithvi with an inner smile.So my ignorance does affect her!He decided staring at her profile which was turned away from him now...
"Meera..That wound needs to be bandaged.."Prithvi said firmly,and tried to turn her face again,when she once again stubbornly pushed him away.
This time he was exasperated by her stubbornness..So Prithvi did something out of his character once again..Letting out a long sigh,he grabbed her by the waist,and placed her on his lap so that a startled Meera instantly held onto his neck for support,and also her neck was completely exposed to him now.
"WHAT-"Meera was about to exclaim out,but was interrupted by Prithvi..
"Shshshhh!"He whispered out warningly,which instantly quietened Meera as she lay in his arms on his lap,her eyes locked with his dark ones,her hands around her neck,and she was halfway lost again..
Keeping his eyes locked with hers for a second more,Prithvi then broke his gaze,and carefully took out the cotton soaked in antiseptic,he had kept ready,and gently started cleaning her wound..When she winced out in pain,as the antiseptic stung at her cut,Prithvi grasped her tighter,and tried to soothe her with his hand around her waist,while his other hand kept cleaning the wound.
"It will hurt only a little more..Just hold on a second..I'll make everything alright.."Prithvi whispered soothingly,and kept on talking to distract her,as his hand cleaned the wound,while the other hand,was making her dizzy,with the arousing heat it was creating by its gentle massage of her waist through her cloth..
Meera was already lost,and stared at his handsome face dazedly,unaware of her wound,or the pain she should have been feeling..She just knew she was loving the feelings his hand around her waist was evoking in her..And she was loving hearing his soothing voice..She was getting lost in an unknown world again,where nothing mattered except this man,who was so lovingly taking care of her wound,and creating such wonderful feelings in her..
As the storm brewed on..Somewhere in the distant forest,a dark figure with one hand hanging loosely and uselessly at the side of his body,managed to drag his tired and wet body upto the door of an old and deserted looking cottage,and knocked on the door hurriedly..
An armed man opened the door carefully,and seeing who had knocked,let him in..
The inside of the cottage looked as dirty and unkempt as the outside..And five armed men stood at different positions around the small room,while another man,who looked like the leader of the goons sat on the only large armchair,with his back turned to the door..The only light in the dirty cottage room was coming from a small lantern,flickering at a corner of the room..The sixth armed man,who had opened the door,stood aside,as the goon with the broken hand stood shivering,his head hung low facing the leader,whose back was turned to him..
"So you failed.."Said the leader from his sitting position,his back still turned to everyone,his cold menacing voice ringing out in the small cottage..
"Boss..I tried to..But..But.."The goon stammered,his voice dripping cold fear..
Abruptly the leader stood up,throwing back the chair in extreme anger,that startled the other seven goons in the room.And before they could react any further,the man turned,and fired at the unsuccessful goon,emptying all the six bullets into the goon's body,as the man,now dead,fell onto the dirty floor with a thud..The floor already becoming covered with the goon's blood..
"Get rid of this junk..He is of no use to me anymore!And leave no evidence!"The leader snapped out an order at the goon who had opened the door,and walked out of the cottage,with the other five goons,and got into a white SUV,standing in front of the cottage,and drove away into the stormy night..
The sixth man,poured kerosene oil,all over the house,and the dead body,and broke the lantern,so that the fire instantly started spreading throughout the old cottage,and he quickly got out of the cottage.
'So long Heera!"He said quietly,as he started walking away from the cottage,but his voice was lost in the thundersound,and the sound of the wooden cottage breaking apart and roaring with raging fire,as the torrential rain had no effect on the inferno..
"See..It's done.."Said Prithvi softly,and with a tender smile looked into her eyes..
And instantly he was lost..He could feel her reaction to him,and holding her in his lap for so long,was having its effect on his body..She was gazing up at him with undeniable need in her eyes,and her pouty lips were parted,as she breathed harshly..
Prithvi could not take it anymore,when her hand around his neck tightened,and his control on himself loosened a hundred fold..Prithvi's hand around her waist tightened its grip on her waist,and slowly Prithvi lowered his lips towards those pouty inviting ones...
