TDP Chapter-8
~"If u get a chance to give her anything, give her a place to lay her head so she can feel how hard your heart beats for her, give her peace at the end of the day and give her a kiss on the forehead when she is just about to fall asleep." - Matt Baker~
I woke up. Her head was lying on my bisep. I pecked her forehead. She moved she body closer. Her grip around me was tightened more. It was heavenly. The dawn had almost broken. The winds blew slowly. I was in complete peace hoping for good things to happen. I wanted to absorb all her pain. I wanted to love her heart and soul more than her body. I shifted my face closer to hers and inhaled the fragrance of her hair. I closed my eyes to feel her again. Her soft body was completely crushed against mine.
"So u r awake Sansku." She wisphered sleepy in my ears.
"Hmm.. u didn't let me sleep properly last night" I bit her earlobe and teased her.
"Ahan!! I didn't let u sleep." She raised her eyebrows a little. She pushed me slightly with intensions inverse to her actions. I pulled her closer. Her blue eyes met mine. Our warm breaths burnt our skins. I reduced the gap that separated us. I moved closer. Passion desires and love outraging our senses. I captured her lips in my. They were plum soft. Our tongues met, fluids mixed. We were plunged again in our love. Caressing and exploring eachother's body. Touching eachother's heart. With bursting emotions flowing from the core of our hearts we made love once again.
"No problem a break is necessary at times." Lucifer relaxed us. It was 10 we walked out of our room. Hand in hand, galring at eachother. Lucifer and Amaira waited for us. The naughty smirks and teasing smiles dancing on the faces. I turned red as Lucifer let his words enter our ears.
"Aahh.. woh. We we r sorry.. I mean.. today ... " I tried searching for an explanation when he burst into a fit of laughter along with Amaira. We both felt shy. Too shy to meet their eyes. We paced to the dinning table. I was given my breakfast. She sat there admiring me.
"Can we share atleast an apple" I said galring into her eyes. I missed that. The way we used to share our lunch boxes. Now I met her after so long and still we can't live the moments again. I yet smiled at the memories. Perhaps I am learning not cry because it's over but to be happy that they happened. Atleast we have sweet memories with us.
Her eyes filled mositure of pain in them. She stood up and embraced me. She bent a bit to peck my forehead. It was a gesture I am getting habbitual to. Today although it was different. One of the most loving hugs she gave me. Her head rested over mine. She caressed my hair slowly. I would feel her heartbeat. I wrapped my hands around her waist. We wanted to stay there put forever. We parted when our hearts felt lighter.
"I have missed you so much in these years" she said in low wet chocked voice
I stood up and held her hand. "I am here just here, with u n only for u." I replied.
She caressed my head. I had a bandage. I hissed in pain even with the slightest touch.
"Take care Sanskaar, u r very precious. U r my jwell I can't loose u." She wisphered n caressed my face. I was glaring in her eyes they had deep emotions beyond my understanding. I smiled.
"Sanskaar see this " Lucifer said handling over a file to me. I gazed where the tip of his pen indicated. It was a picture of a grand hall.
"This is the hall where our meetings are done." He completed. I frowned.
"But didn't we attend a meeting with ur officials recently that wasn't here?" I quoted back. Offcourse I had to. Since I and Swara want to live together and marry then I need to learn things like a nobility atleast. I accompany Lucifer to the meetings with his officials. We discuss various issues. Surprisingly or unsurprisingly here these vampires also have a well defined law. They have a constitution, a council, that heads over the king. There are kings and heads over Vampires. It was something hard to digest for me but okay I learnt to adjust.
"No this isn't for those meetings. This one is special for us the undeads. " He said. My eyes sprung open.
"WHAT DO U MEAN BY UNDEADS??" I asked surprised.
"Vampires, warewolves,Zombies, Demons." He replied with a smile paying on his lips. He knew I was scared. I gulped visibilly. As if being with vampires wasn't enough he told me about these creepy creatures as well.
"I didn't just told I about them we will go to meet them tomorrow evening." He read mind and added.
"U r kidding right?" I said on the verge of crying. I had no guts to face the horrified creatures.i feel scared at his council and official meetings only those vampires are creepy enough for me. I didn't wish to meet zombies and warewolves or whatever demons. That is too creepy to handle.
"Hey Sanskaar don't do this to Swara man. She is such a bold princess and u are thinking such cowardly shit" he halted my thought process.
" Then what shall I think??" I quoted him .I was clearly upset about the meeting.
He smiled and patted my shoulder.
"Don't worry nothing will happen, we the undeads know our limits." He tried to relax me. A vague effort.
I couldn't relax among the creatures who thought of me as their food. Nope it was hell dangerous. I tried to concentrate on my files. There are many things I need to do. I studied and went through all the things we needed to discuss. There was a review over their peace policy. Yes they needed it. Why not to include humans in that? Afterall they all trouble us a lot!! We poor creatures are hell scared of them.
I tried distracting my self and tried reading the file it had some cases of culprits who broke the laws and info about the heads who were supposed to present there. I was going through it. I dipped and almost jerked the file in fear. The first introduction was to the king Ethan. He was a Zombie. His face was crooked and crept. It was the ugliest I have ever seen. I wiped my sweat drops and grabbed some water. Lucifer was smiling as he studied the reports of the criminals in details. I was about to sit back when Swara bangged the door open.
"Sanskaar is not going to the meeting Lucifer" I heard Swara enter to the room shouting. No doubt she read my mind. She was galring at Lucifer.
He moved to her.
"Swara I can understand but we have already decided and u have promised u won't interfere when I will train Sanskaar." Lucifer said calmly cupping her face. I stood silent. More than anything I wanted to embrace her n tell I am fine. I will do anything to be deserving for her. If this risk is for her I will overcome my fears.
"I know Lucky but still it's not safe" she replied, her tone was calmer than before. "U know na Ethan, Jason; they are most dangerous, I just know that I shouldn't loose Sanskaar or you in anyway." She Expressed her concern for me. I stayed silent as I didn't wish to interrupt their conversation.
"Don't worry nothing will happen to us." Lucifer assured her. She removed his hands from her face. She didn't seemed convenced yet.
She was looking at me. I was somewhere afraid of her this time. She was boiling in rage and drowning in tension. She crossed her arms around her abodomin. Lucifer moved and took his seat.
"Amm.. Swara can we talk for a minute" I said.
She nodded and turned to me.
"Not here, I mean can we talk in our room" I requested. I was shifting my eyes from Swara to Lucifer and back from him to her.
"Yes, you both may go" Lucifer permitted us. We left.
"Swara" I held her elbow. She turned to me. I could read her eyes, they dripped concern for me.
"Pls listen don't worry, I would be fine" I assured her. I was Glaring deep in her Serene blue eyes. The ones for which I have fallen. The once which said they had loved me since long. I moved forward and cupped her face.
"I will come with you" she wisphered.
"It's not needed." I assured.
"Shut up, okay. U don't know Jason n Ethan. They both are dangerous. I can't let anything happen to you. Got it." She finalized.
"Ethan. I think he is the Zombie head but who is Jason." I quizzed
"He is the werewolf. He is the king. Very dangerous. " She said and panick was clear in her eyes.
"U r coming there"? " I asked.
She nodded.
"Okay then, now nothing will happen to me" I smiled and lightened the mood. She smiled.
"So, shall we go." She said.
I could sense her restlessness. I couldn't do anything else, I slowly pulled her into hug. I pecked her forehead. I closed my eyes feeling the warmth of love that had heated our bodies, hearts and souls. Our breaths went warmer and then uneven. We swam deep in each other's eyes. I galred at her red lips and weaved my fingers into her thick black hair. She covered her orbs with her pale lashes. I reduced the gap b/w our lips. Our breaths were burning hot. I pulled her closer through her waist and killed the space that separated us. I let my nose press against hers. She smiled. I brushed my lips against hers, she blushed. I pecked her petal like lips. They were soft as if custard was spread over them. Our breaths were even more deeper after this. My hand grabbed her waist underneath her black satin knee length dress. She clutched my shirt tighter. I slowly sucked her lower lip and then the upper lip. We seemed to be in heaven. I repeated my actions and tasted her custard like soft lips. My one hand roamed over her waist and other lowered her sleeves in an effort to remove the Barries in between us. She discarded my shirt it fell on the floor. Her dress covered her lower body her almost bare abdomen was crushed against my hard chest. Our mouths were busy. She pulled me closer and we deepend the kiss. Our toungues danced against each other. Our salivas mixed. The kiss seemed endless. We never felt like parting and ending the kiss. It was making us feel very special. My hand now caressed her neck. We parted when we almost began to chock. We were breathing heavily. I suggest my had in her neck. I kissed her jawline and neck. Her fingers were woven into my hair. She pressed me harder into her neck. I removed her dress and lifted her up in my arms. I took her to the bed. We made love again. The madness in us for each other grew more Everytime we touched, or kissed or got intimate. Forgetting every worry we had we just lied in each other's arms. Feeling our heartbeats. Feeling the warmth of our love. We could feel the madenning effect of our love on us.
"I won't let anything happen to you" Swara said while we rested on the bed tired.
She caressed my hair. Her touch had a different feel. It always made me feel we won't ever FL apart. Neither by circumstances nor by death. I pulled her close to me. Her head rested over my bisep. I had promised myself I will be strong enough to protect her. She was drowsy by my side. I had nothing in my hand to give her. I had no money to buy her gifts.
"I know" I replied.
She smiled. All I could give her was love. I wished to give her peace. I pecked her forehead and crushed her body against mine. I wanted her to hear my heart. I wanted her to know that my heart beats for her. Her presence is the now the reason of my existence. If I am living again it's just for her.
"I love you Swara" I wisphered.
She smiled in her sleep. I could feel her tensions gone long before. I smiled. I wanted this moment to pause forever. I wish time could have a pause here.
