Krishna turned over on his bed sleepily as his right hand groped beside him , murmuring ...'Pratigya... I want u now!... enough of ur teasing sleep...' he opened his eyes blearily as he encountered empty space beside him n stretched , trying to adjust his eyes to the morning light , raising his voice...' Pratigya?... u don't really want to keep me waiting further for a sec...u'... he blinked , sitting up suddenly ... there was none in the room, he looked around for her even as his brain slowly informed him of the fact...he looked down at his hands to find that he was holding the album, still... he groaned , images of the dream playing vividly in his mind , his morning wood screaming out for her...he held his head in his hands , the images of the night bombarding him ... her! In his arms! Against the wall! In his shirt! ...what? no! ... u dreamed of her in ur shirt! He felt jolted even as the highly tempting image played before his eyes ... he licked his lips as he remembered the way she looked in his dream, sleeping next to him... he looked around beside him again, startled ... he saw her sleeping next to him! ... what's happening to u KST?... he shook his head as the image of him deciding to watch her sleep rather than ravish her exploded in his mind... what? U let her sleep? U fool! N watched her sleep? u r a creep? Who in their right mind would let that...such a ...her sleep when there r many ways in which u could have never let her sleep the whole night!!!... he gritted his teeth in frustration ...what r u thinking KST? She was in ur damn dream! Not beside u in ur bed!...
he opened his eyes, snapping his head up as he heard the phone vibrate... he reached out for it n slumped back to the pillows ... it was chandu ... 'krishna ...!' came chandu's relieved voice from the other end... 'what? What happened ? every thing alright? asked krishna, confused at his tone... trying to stifle a yawn ... n not to think of her!... chandu chuckled into the phone... 'still sleepy, thatkur sahib...what did u do all night?' he asked , his voice teasing ... dreaming about a witch! ...thought krishna angrily as he said...' nothing...! I...'... he began but stopped talking as his eyes fell on the wall clock...W*F! its nearing 10'o clock in the morning! ... his eyes became wide as he realised that he had never felt this much fresh in the morning ever...he seldom slept so contently ... n he didn't even remember when did he fall asleep...the only thing he remembered was gazing into her eyes... 'krishna?' chandu asked , his voice again concerned ... 'I will call u later...' krishna said curtly into the phone n cut it... damn! He slept through what...may be 11 hours !... that's... ridiculous !... he heard the door bell ring n got up from the bed , reaching for his shirt ...his fingers stopped short of it , thinking of the dream... he caressed it slowly, his mouth becoming dry n then watering as the image of her inside it came to his mind again... no! stop thinking about it...! he threw the shirt away n walked towards his wardrobe to get a kurta n then went out of his room to the hall...
Pratigya undulated over the bed, sleepily , her hands hugging a pillow , murmuring...' 5 more minutes ...' she blinked ... he wasn't anywhere to be seen ... she could feel her heart hammering inside her n her cheeks burning... she sat up startled , her hands flying to check the shirt over her ...it was there alright ... she shuddered as her eyes fell over the torn blouse over the nearby chair... there was a tingly feeling all over her body n she hugged herself as images of the night came back to her in full force...she pulled the now loosened sheet over her waist tight against her , closing her eyes as horror n shame filled her... she dreamt of that...devil...all the night ...doing...no!... she shuddered as the image of his head buried over her chest bombarded her n she shook her head vigorously , trying to stay sane... oh! What's happening to her?... she let him in her dreams again ..!... she opened her eyes, tears filled in them as she remembered her mother...! her mother was in mortal danger n here she was ! ... dreaming about a man...! doing things to her!... she let out a helpless cry as she remembered herself arching upto him against that wall , pulling him closer... she looked down frantically at her, trying to rip off the shirt, hating herself... then she remembered ! oh no! what will she wear?... how will she ask him about clothes ?... she tried to scramble down the bed in fear n she noticed that her ankle had healed ... she felt a curious shiver running up her body as she remembered his kiss there in her dream...it had been so...vivid...! more n more images of the night came to her mind... his frantic concern as she hit her ankle ! him asking her whether she ate or not?...why though?... she shook her head in confusion ... she stood up clutching at the shirt n sheet n realised that she felt really good in it... infact too good after so many days ...she blinked as her eyes fell over the bedside clock...10! what?... she slept for 11 hours ? ... she stared in shock at the clock for some secs n looked around startled as she heard the door bell ring...
Krishna opened the door to find Vikram standing outside ...'sir, a girl wants to meet ur wife...I mean Pratigyaji...' he said , looking at krishna in wonder... 'girl who?' krishna asked in half confusion n half sleepiness ... 'her name is remya...tells me that she had met u in the flight here... her husband is mr. Avinash sinha ... they will be coming to the evening party too...' krishna nodded absently ... 'whatever ...' he said stifling another yawn ... vikram looked at him in curiosity as he nodded at Remya who was standing beside him , on the other side of the door... 'er... did I come in the wrong time?' asked remya , stepping inside , her eyes embarrassed as she tried not to look at krishna's dishelved hair ... krishna gritted his teeth to force a smile ... 'she is there in the room...' he nodded curtly at vikram to leave n started to walk towards his room... 'Pratigya?' called remya , knocking on the door ...'its me , remya... remember?...' she asked , her voice wavering as she watched krishna walking towards another room... pratigya who was straining to hear what was going on in the hall, felt relief spread over her as she heard remya's voice ... 'remya!' she exclaimed , without even thinking twice n she opened the door, clutching at the sheet around her waist...
krishna who had heard her voice, turned around towards her before he even knew it... his groan of lust was effectively masked by remya's embarrassed giggle as pratigya stared at krishna across the hall from the door way, her body erupting in fresh goosebumps , her eyes locked into his ... krishna stared at her , heat rising up his body...what the ! she stood there , in his shirt!!...just as he saw her in his dream! ... it took all his self control not to barge inside her room n ravish her as he forced to remind himself that a stranger was present there with them... or just throwing that remya out n showing her exactly what he thought of her in his shirt was also appealing !... he gulped down the surge of desire as he let his eyes rove down her delectable body, relishing the feel of his shirt clinging to her curves ...n her hair...! damn! ...pratigya felt her head becoming heavy as she could feel her heart thundering n her cheeks burning as she felt his eyes over her n she instinctively covered her chest with the other hand ...she could feel shivers running up her spine...both looked at remya, startled , as she let out a shaky giggle , trying to catch pratigya's attention ...'sorry, I will come later then, I think' said remya, her face glowing in embarrassment ... 'er...come in...' croaked pratigya , trying to smile , but her cheeks were busy blushing ...krishna wrenched his eyes from her n went inside his room slamming the door shut n sagged against it... how dare she ? how dare she wear his shirt? ... he groaned again... he wanted her ! now! ... or else he will explode ...! ... he felt the same parched feeling clawing at his throat n let out a frustrated shout... a cold shower was in due ...
' ahem...ahem...' remya cleared her throat , her eyes falling swiftly over the torn blouse on the chair n then to pratigya , who was red as beetroot ...pratigya didn't dare look up , fidgeting with one end of the sheet n hugging the shirt more to her, her back to remya ... 'sorry I came at the wrong time...its 10 already n I thought...' remya trailed off, an embarrassed smile on her face... pratigya could feel her cheeks flaming as she stuttered ...'oh no! nothing like that...what u think... no! i mean... how's arjun?' she finished lamely , looking anywhere but at remya ... 'hey! Don't worry...! n don't be embarrassed dear...it happens !' remya giggled ...' n arjun is at home with my parents...avinash has some meeting today...' she sat down on a nearby couch , giggling as she looked at pratigya ...'oh my god! U ruined ur blouse , I could see...' pratigya shivered as she sat down on the bed, her face flushed ... 'how did u know about this apartment? I mean...' she began but remya cut her off ...'Oh! Avinash n me r also attending the party tonight ... we came to know that u r the chief guests n avinash kind of bribed one of the managers here n got the address ...' she winked good naturely at pratigya ... 'so straight to business... go n get fresh n u r coming with me for shopping ... u see my new dress for the party got ruined yesterday as arjun poured kheer all over it !' she shook her head in horrified resignation ... 'btw, what r u wearing ? something less grand I presume... or else if ur husband keeps ripping off all ur clothes , u will have time to check up ur shopping bill only!' she giggled again, hoping to get pratigya divulge any details ... but in a friendly manner ... pratigya bit her lip... she could tell her ... 'er ...remya?' she began , unsure how to start n where to start ... remya looked at her curiously , smiling ... 'er ...I ...don't have ...i mean ...i ...forgot to bring my luggage ...u see , er...he was busy n a ...bit angry due to that meeting n we didn't really check whether the two suitcases were in...n ... my suitcase got misplaced ...n i don't want to tell him about it as he is already angry about the whole business trip n all...so...' she trailed off, looking anywhere but at remya ... remya giggled..'Oh dear... n I was wondering why u had just a sheet n his shirt on u after all this time!' she winked ... don't worry, i will phone my home n ask my servant to bring a salwaar , is that Ok for u? n then we could go for a full fledged shopping? What say?' ... pratigya looked up at remya, feeling relieved ...'Oh ...ok I...' she suddenly remembered that she need to ask him ... she don't want remya in trouble due to her...'thanks remya , but I need to ask him ...i mean...' ...'ofcourse go on...I will wait for u here...n pls let me know if u may get busy again...' said remya, winking n trying to suppress another bout of giggle ... pratgya looked up at her, turning crimson ... oh no! She can't go infront of him like this... but she can't let go of this opportunity too... she has to buy some clothes !! ...
she walked out of the room, her legs turning to jelly as fear n shyness chased along her mind... she hugged herself as she approached his room n knocked gently on the door with trembling hands... her heart was beating in her mouth... no response ...she pushed open the door , feeling giddy with panic... there was no one inside the room...she looked around n hear the sound of water from the bathroom... she gulped but let out a sigh of relief ...atleast she won't be seeing him in person... she walked towards the door, frantically thinking ... what should she ask? How should she ask?... oh ! this is getting complicated ...! she paused before the door feeling breathless ... with a curious excitement n panic ... she rapped on the door with her hand , hoping that he won't decide to come out nor would he disallow her to go out... krishna looked around at the door, sharply , turning off the shower ...who was it? It can't be Vikram ! ...'who ?' he began , then stopped as her face came into his mind... damn! He was trying his level best not to think of her!...wait a minute! What the hell is she doing in his room? Hasn't she done torturing him ? ... 'er...can I...I mean ...I am going out with Remya ...she needs to go shopping'... pratigya said , talking fast , trying to keep her voice from wavering , but high pitched ... her heart was on the verge of explosion ... 'what?' krishna said , getting angry n relieved at the same time... angry that she has the nerve to ask him...no say to him that she is going out ...! n relief that she will be out of his sight for sometime... a much needed distraction ... Especially after last night! ... no KST! She is just a maid! Remember? R u going to allow her to enjoy...? u wanted to give her hell right? ...'u r not going anywhere... send that girl away!' he said through gritted teeth n turned on the shower again ... shopping? His foot! Women!...
pratigya pursed her lips, not liking his tone, getting angry ... who the hell does he think he is!... she almost opened her mouth to shout at him that she is going anyway but caught herself... oh no! What were u thinking pratigya? how could u constantly forget about ur mother? ...n what if he chose to come outside? No!... she forced herself to be calm... there was no other way... the knocked on the door again...'what?' hissed krishna , getting angry, fisting his palms... 'I... I didn't bring any spare clothes... my blouse...i mean'... she flushed red n took a deep breath... 'My saree is damaged n I don't have any spare ones with me...' she stopped talking as she heard krishna inhale ... it sounded exactly like she had heard in her dream... krishna stared at the door , letting the water fall over him as he processed what he heard... she didn't bring any clothes! So that's why she wore his shirt... but...but ... didn't she say something similar to that in his dream...? he tried to remember...but everything was foggy now... what's happening? ... he shook his head to bring it back to sanity... no way! He must be having hallucinations!! He continued to look at the door in a strange way until lust took prominence ...so? did he hear right? Was she walking n sleeping in a room next to his, naked , all night? No not naked! She wore ur shirt! ... that's worse !... pratigya waited with increasing tension n breathlessness ... why was he silent? Is he contemplating to come out? No! ... she took an automatic step backwards ... 'so I ...I am going...' she stuttered ...what?! she is going? ...he refused n she is going!!!... krishna opened his mouth to say no, but stopped ... he gritted his teeth as he suddenly remembered the party in the evening... they...no! he will be the laughing stock of the city next day if she doesn't show up !!... pratigya waited for his response , not knowing why ... she could feel relief... that went well..! more than she had expected !... krishna gritted his teeth in anger as he said 'Ok...u will be back here before noon then...is that clear?' pratigya stared at the door in anger, but she couldn't help from smiling in relief too... she walked back to her room... 'I will have a bath now... pls feel free...' she said , giving remya the remote of the LED'... remya smiled at her...'sure n I have already phoned my home... I hope u like my salwaar'... pratigya smiled at her...' thanks a lot remya... I don't know what I would have done without u...'
Krishna came out after the bath, fuming ... she didn't even answer him...!!...wait till he gets her alone for even a sec...she is going to regret it!!!...n all this I didn't bring clothes stuff' ...who in their right mind would forget to bring their luggage !!! she is doing all this deliberately ...!!!... he changed into casuals as he contemplated the day n evening ahead... he so wanted to go home!!...he had his breakfast which was served to him on the table near the couch n he gritted his teeth as he stepped into the hall seeing Vikram leading a servant out ... what the hell! Is his apartment some motel that every person is entering n leaving as they wish ...!! ... he raised an eyebrow at Vikram...' he is Mrs remya's servant , sir...he brought some dress material , I presume...' right!' krishna gritted out , twirling his phone... he sat down, opening the newspaper , trying not to gaze at her room, while Vikram went to fetch the empty plates...his eyes caught their pic , the same n the only one media managed to procure thanks to Geetha , that nosy reporter ...he thought fuming...he wrenched his eyes off the pic... as suspected there was a small piece about his honeymoon trip' n he grimaced in dislike n turned to the business section... he could feel himself getting fidgety n loosing focus n found his eyes dart time n again at her room... he caught himself for the 4th time n threw the paper in frustration when the door opened n pratigya stepped out, blushing, her eyes meeting his... her heart was thundering as she stepped out of the room n couldn't help blushing as remya spoke to her in undertone I will wait by the car ... ur husband would be waiting for u to give u a proper good bye...' krishna stared at pratigya, taking in her red cheeks n the way any kind of dress enhanced her beauty ... 'its so sweet of u Thakur sahib , to send pratigya with me... if I may, could I invite u two to my home today noon for lunch...?' Remya asked , sounding hopeful n in a loud voice so that krishna n pratigya pay attention that they were not alone... krishna opened his mouth to say no, but thought otherwise , still locked in her eyes... he don't know what he would do if she stays with him alone even for a sec... the image of her in his shirt kept intruding in his mind... n sinha's r respected businessmen also...now that he knew who avinash was , he had seen his bauji talking with Mr sinha , avinash's father, 1-2 times... he nodded curtly at remya n pratigya's mouth opened in surprise ... remya smiled at krishna n winked at pratigya ... 'so I will wait in the lobby... don't be late...' she said quickly n walked out of the hall...
Pratigya could suddenly feel her heart beat quickening n she almost stopped remya from leaving her alone...with him!!... what if she did all those weird, horrible things like last night!!? No!... she felt goosebumps erupting all over her as he approached her , the scent of him n his after shave coupled to assault her senses ...why did he have to shave that stubble off ! it felt too good! ...no!... she backed away n gasped softly as her back hit the wall... she kept her eyes downcast , her heart hammering... krishna leaned into her , inhaling her , unable to resist ... she smelled so ...delicious...she looked otherworldly , fresh from bath, raw... no! Focus! KST!... he raised his left hand to coil in her still damp hair n pulled her head up , forcing her to met his eyes... 'how dare u ? how dare u put my shirt on ur filthy body?' he hissed at her , meaning to hurt her... pratigya's eyes flickered in anger n...pain... she tried to remove his grip on her, looking at him in anger ...what r u going to say pratigya? that she didn't quite rememberhow n when she put it on? That u felt too good in it that she didn't think of ...! no!!... 'I didn't know that it was ur shirt! Now get ur filthy hands off me...' she hissed back at him...
krishna tightened his grip on her as he chuckled ...pratigya felt shivers running down her spine... 'u didn't know it was mine? Tut..tut... what kind of a maid r u? ...don't even know ur master's belongings? '...pratigya looked at him in humiliation n anger... 'don't u dare play games with me , bitch! U deliberately didn't bring ur luggage ...! n u thought of seducing me n get back to the position of mistress , wife, whatever!!! No!... As i said, u will remain a mere maid all ur life!! ... whatever u do, I am not going to touch u ... never ever!' he released her , glaring at her... pratigya stared at him in growing anger ... he gropes her , attacks her in the lift n in the hall n he is putting all the blame on her! As if she is at fault!...typical men!!! ...she ignored the fact that she done nothing to stop him or to get away from him!...instead she had...no!...don't think about it!!!... ' fine!' she shouted , moving away from him... 'I will remind u the same thing if u ever touch me again...! bec u seem to forget that much too often!!!'...she said angrily n turned to leave... aah' she gasped out as she felt him pull her n throw her on the couch ... 'U..!' krishna snarled at her, climbing up her n pinning her struggling hands over the couch, his one hand clasping around her neck... how dare she blame him?...
but he was effectively distracted as her shawl got misplaced n her neck was presented to his eyes... there at the base of her neck , just above her left collar bone was a hickey ...! so vivid...still red... tempting... beautiful...his eyes locked on to it, turning darker as he started at it...his hand loosened around her neck n caressed along n above the red patch, slowly... passionately... pratigya could feel her heart waiting to explode as she watched him stare at her neck , n then she moaned softly as his fingers caressed her, his eyes moving up to gaze at her eyes... her struggles died down as she felt herself getting lost in their depths... krishna lowered his face to hers, that parched feeling clawing at his throat again as he moistened his lips ... pratigya sighed , closing her eyes n blushing furiously ,her heart hammering as she tilted her face up to him, as naturally as she was taking her next breath, although she had forgotten how to breathe... krishna could feel his head feeling heavy as desire uncoiled inside him as he almost latched his mouth on to hers when he heard the door open n some one squeak ooopsss...I ...I am sorry...I...' n then the door shutting forcefully ... both krishna n pratigya looked around , startled ...pratigya pushed him off her, horror gripping her as she stood up from the couch... what's happening...? did she forgot herself again? ...I told u to stay away from him! She heard her sane part hiss at her... krishna gritted his teeth in anger as he realised that he didn't even remember when he thought of kissing her from actually wanting to strangle her ... contrasting emotions assaulted him...he so wanted to kiss her! The torture was too much to bear... But also felt relieved that he didn't... thanks to whoever distracted him!... the last thing he wanted was her to reveal to everyone that he couldn't keep his hands n mouth off her even after throwing her away as a maid!!!... they heard the door bell ring n krishna croaked 'enter...' ...pratigya straightened her dress unnecessarily , shivering in panic at the thought of what would have happened if he wasn't distracted ...
remya stepped in , her face red in embarrassment n shyness... 'I am really ...really sorry , Mr. Krishna ji ... I forgot my purse here... I...' she stuttered , looking at pratigya in embarrassment n apology ... krishna pursed his lips as partigya inhaled softly , her eyes widening in panic...purse! money!...oh no! She would need money to buy clothes!...
