CHAPTER – 4.2
Just an hour into it and Isha regretted not choosing a 'safe word'.
It's not the pain but the incomplete pleasure and how her husband mercilessly left her at her high without letting her climax that's making her restless.
If this is the situation with just his fingers, mouth and tongue in her, she didn't want to imagine the amount of pain and punishment she would go through when he actually enters her...
"Rana sa...
Please...
I am sorry...
Don't do this", she said but today he is a merciless beast, he placed his mouth on her nipple sucking it gently, but it didn't take him to get rough and bite her sensitive skin... By now her whole body became extremely sensitive to his touch, filled with his saliva, there isn't a part of her he hasn't touched with his mouth.
"Ah...
Ansh...
Please...", she moaned when she felt his fingers on her sensitive cl*t...
He soon entered all his digits one by one and increased his pace, she thought he would show some mercy on her and at least let her climax now but she was so wrong... He left her again... This time she was frustrated that her eyes are filled and she looked so furious at him but didn't say a word, she turned her head sideways... He is fully clothed while she is stark naked which frustrated her and above all this his punishments... Now she understood why her husband is called merciless especially when he comes to his beast mode...
"You don't get to complain or get angry Biwi, not after what you did", he said coldly looking at her fury...
His endearment made her eyes widen...
'Biwi'? This is the first time he called her that...
As much as her heart fluttered hearing it, his cold tone equally scared her, he isn't satisfied even after torturing her for so much time...
He got down the bed, started undressing himself all the while looking at her, and her eyes dilated in anticipation and after undressing completely, he hovered over her and without any warning he thrust into her and she screamed in pain, he placed his lips on hers eating her screams along with her lips while pumping into her at an animalistic pace, his mouth and hands exploring her body all this while not letting Isha breath...
She screamed loudly when an heavy orgasm hit her and it lasted long, she came down from her high but he hasn't stopped thrusting into her neither his pace slowed down and soon she came again and after few hard thrusts, he released inside her with grunt and she climaxed with him again, her eyes closed not having an ounce of energy left in her.
But the pleasure she experienced at the end made her feel worth of all the pain she had to take for the past few hours...
But her husband needn't know it.
He untied her hands and looking at the reddish marks on her wrists due to the tie, his eyes softened, he slowly rubbed it when he heard his wife wince, that's when he saw her body which is filled with his marks...
He didn't regret it completely as he realized his wife enjoyed it but looking at the proof of his BEAST angle on her body did make him a bit guilty...
He brought the ointment and applied on her wrists and her body...
"Did I hurt you ?", Abhyansh asked but she didn't answer, she is tired and is in no mood to answer...
"Just answer and you can sleep peacefully...", he asked but she didn't respond...
"Bacha...
Please answer", he said, there is concern underlying his tone and she couldn't ignore that tone, she knew he is still mad though he took out all his rage on her but still he is worried if she is hurt and that warmed her heart.
"No you didn't...
I already told you, my Ansh can never hurt me but yes it's true that I was in pain, I still am...
But I am not complaining", she said, she is being truthful, she is in pain, her whole body is aching, consequences of having a Beast as your husband, as much as the pleasure, so is the pain, and today he was too hard on her courtesy his rage.
"You deserve it for what you did", he said lightly pecking her lips...
She sighed looking at his red eyes...
He is still mad though it wasn't destructive like it was a few hours ago but still it was there and now she doesn't have enough energy to take his anger anymore, she is very tired.
"I know...
Now please calm down...
I am sorry, I am really sorry", she said cupping his face and he nodded.
"This isn't over though...", he said and she widened her eyes...
"Ansh...
I can't...", she said her eyes drooping...
"Yes you can...", he said, his fingers rubbing her sensitive nub and she moaned, he smirked, he knows her body more than herself.
He soon replaced his fingers with his Mr.
Beast junior making her moan in pleasure and pain.
He went on till early hours, Isha passed out soon after coming from her high.
He gently kissed her forehead and cleaned her, made her wear his shirt before going to take a bath.
After that he completed his morning prayers and came back to his wife and drifted to sleep taking her in his arms...
He knew he couldn't hold her in his arms for the next few days and even that thought made him distressed, he didn't imagine himself whining about staying away from his wife ever, that's so not him but his wife changed all his inhibitions about himself.
After an hour or so, Abhyansh woke up and tried to get up to leave for work but his wife tightened her hold around his bare torso...
"Bacha...
I need to leave for work...
You take rest hm?", Abhyansh said softly but she hummed in protest...
"Rani sa, I am getting late", he again tried but she didn't loosen her grip.
"Stay...
I am tired and I want to sleep in your arms", she said and he agreed kissing her forehead.
"I'll work from home then", he said making her smile slightly before she nuzzled into his chest hugging him tightly...
But suddenly she sat up with a jerk realizing she had to prepare breakfast, her mother-in-law couldn't handle it considering her situation, Abhyansh who understood her worry calmed her informing her that the chefs are making the breakfast under the supervision of Rajmata.
"But you won't eat it...
Wait I'll quickly prepare something after freshening up", she said but he held her wrist and pulled her gently to him holding her in his arms...
"You spoiled me a lot, stop doing it, it's gonna get difficult when you won't be with me", he said and she frowned at his last sentence.
She is very tired yet got up in a blink when she realized he won't have the food prepared by chefs.
"Why are you talking like this ?? Who is going away now ? I don't even talk about going to Rajput palace these days", she said and he sighed, now is the time to tell her the news.
"I am leaving for Europe...
There are a few issues that need my physical presence", he said and she didn't react for a minute...
She knew it's not going to be easy staying away from him but she knew it must be very critical otherwise he wouldn't be going in the first place.
"Is this why you asked me to reach home early yesterday ? To inform this ?", she asked and he nodded.
"I thought to take you for dinner and tell you there", he said, he knew she is upset but is trying to be understanding.
"Oh! When are you leaving ? And for how many days ?", she asked snuggling in his arms more.
"In a few days and I am not sure of the duration but will try to wrap up everything in a week or at max 10 days", he said
"Okay...
Take care, I'll prepare some snacks which have a good shelf life, take them with you, should I prepare some instant mixes as well ? I am worried about your food more than anything", she said and he kissed her hair hugging her tightly...
"You worry a lot...
No need to stress yourself for all that, I'll be fine...
Hm...", he said ruffling her hair...
"You are saying 'No' to my handmade food ? You Rana sa ? Then there is definitely something wrong...
Why are you going there ? Is it something very serious ?", she probed making him chuckle at her interrogation.
"Stop using your pea-sized brain Rani sa...
I know your whole body is aching and it will take at least a few days for you to recover completely...
So just don't strain yourself, take proper rest", he said and she hid her face in his neck trying to hide her blush and he lifted his brows in amusement, it's actually very surprising yet cute to see his wife turning from bold to blushing within minutes.
"Don't get me mad again", he said slowly ruffling her hair and softly kissing her temple...
"I enjoyed yesterday", she said slowly and he smirked
"I know, you did, in fact you did a lot but that doesn't mean you keep getting me mad purposely, I don't like seeing you in pain", he said and she nodded.
"I am really sorry for yesterday, I can't see you in pain either Ansh...
I so love you...
I just...", she trailed and her eyes welled up even at the thought of she hurting her husband.
"Sh...
It's okay jaan...
Just don't raise that topic again", he said and she sighed but nodded.
Now it's all in her mother-in-law's hands, she had to make her son listen to her. Abhyansh listens to Isha's concerns related to everything, and he try to do what she wants if that complies with his beliefs and values but when it comes to what happened in the past, he isn't ready to hear to anyone and that includes his wife too.
Isha knew this, but still she attempted as she wants her husband to break that rigidity and hear things from his mother's point of view.
She wants him to stay peacefully without the baggage he carries and that could only happen when he hears to the whole truth and moves on from it for once and all.
Well, thinking all this, the thought of 'same thing applies to her as well' crossed her head.
Isn't she doing the same by not trying to overcome the things which are the reason for her panic attacks. She prayed she could gather enough strength to overcome that in the near future.
"You want to sleep more ?", he asked softly...
She shook her head, so he carried her to the bathroom and took the stairs to the downfloor in it.
He pampered her for an hour, gave her a massage and then ran a hot bath that relaxed her muscles to some extent and helped with her body ache but still there is pain but manageable for her.
"I am not getting you mad again", she declared when he lifted her in his arms to take her to their room.
"Aren't you the one who stopped me from going to the back palace ?", he asked placing her on the dressing table chair in their closet.
"This is much better than you going there, I am sure you would be back with at least 10 fresh cuts on your body", she taunted him and he sighed, well she isn't wrong there.
But the difference is if he gets 10 cuts, poor Balwant would get 100 as when he is furious he tends to destroy his opponents mercilessly.
He got her ready, when he took out a saree, she shook her head asking him to take a suit instead.
He obliged and helped her wear the suit after properly moisturizing her skin.
"When are you leaving ? Tell me the exact date Rana sa", she asked
"Haven't yet decided, will have to see all the security arrangements here and then will leave, though Bhairav would be here with you people", he said and she frowned.
They are safe here, wouldn't it be much required for Bhairav to be with him instead ? Isha thought.
She can't even imagine something happening to her husband, she isn't stupid, she knew Abhyansh is going to handle something very crucial and it has danger lurking around.
She prayed for his safety and determined to send Bhairav with Abhyansh.
"Tell me the tentative date at least", she asked and he informed her that he would be leaving in 3-4 days.
Her heart hammered with ache at the news of his departure but she stayed strong.
"Can we go for dinner today ?", she asked and he nodded with a smile.
He decided to arrange a beautiful dinner date for his wife tonight.
He gave his hotel staff instructions to get the arrangements done according to his wife's taste.
He is gonna take her to another one of his hotels as he wants her to explore different places and also know about their business briefly.
The whole day, he worked from home while his wife slept in his arms after having breakfast.
She only woke up to have lunch and fell back into slumber.
He kissed her head often with love, having her in his arms for the whole day warmed his heart.
He so wanted to wake her up and keep talking to her but didn't as he can see the fatigue on her face.
In the evening, both of them got ready and Isha checked on her mother-in-law once before leaving for dinner with her husband.
As soon as they entered, Isha is surprised to see the place decorated with her favorite flowers, the mild lavendar room freshner soothing her.
She held her husband's palm with a hidden child like glee on her face.
They walked in and with every step she took the sight got more beautiful and her grip on his palm unknowingly tightened.
But when she realized she held her husband's palm in public which as a queen, she is not allowed to, she tried to detach her hand but he tightened his hold on her palm surprising her.
The hotel staff are about to enter the cabin Abhyansh got ready for his wife for them to have a peaceful dinner, but he raised his palm stopping them.
They bowed and left from there.
Abhyansh held the door for his wife and Isha walked in followed by her husband.
As soon as she entered, the rooftop of the cabin opened and the ballons that filled the room flew away bringing a beautiful view of a candle light dinner set up.
Isha cupped her mouth, her eyes shone with happiness and excitement that fluttered Abhyansh's heart who is looking at his wife with folded hands and leaning to the wall.
It's as if seeing his wife happy is the biggest motivation in his life.
"Rana sa...
This is so beautiful", Isha gasped looking at the sky filled with stars giving the setup a close to nature feeling.
"I'm glad you liked it", he said walking towards her, she leaned on his chest wrapping her hands around his waist...
"Thank you", she said, making surprises, planning dates, purchasing gifts, or wishing for occasions aren't something her husband did, it's so out of character for him but for her he did and that made her happy, and at the same time made her feel guilty for what she did.
"Come sit...
Let's have dinner", he said pulling a chair for her and she raised her brows in surprise.
"Stare at me later, for now, come and sit", he said and she blushed looking here and there embarrassed making him chuckle.
"I am not staring at you...
Just wondering, are you the same man or someone else's soul got into your body ?", she said and he glared at her adjusting her seat before taking a seat in front of her.
Seeing his upset face she understood he is jealous, she giggled at him, he glared at her coldly which stopped her giggle instantly.
"Rana sa... You are so petty... It was just a statement, I wasn't actually having dinner with someone else's soul that entered in my husband's body", she said but even that statement brought fury, yeah it seemed petty but he is sometimes even jealous of her own shadow that get to be with her always. He didn't plan on loving her so much, it just happened and now he didn't regret a bit.
"Can I ask them to bring the food if you are done with your stupid jokes ?", he asked, irritation clearly visible on his face.
"Grumpy old man...", she muttered to herself...
"What did you say ?", he asked hiding his smile, he heard her but wanted to see if his wife dares to say it on his face or not...
"Doesn't matter how good the setting is, you will always remain grumpy", she said loudly...
"I think I heard something like old man ? Let's go home, will show you exactly how old I am", he said, his tone going rasp making her blush...
"Rana sa...", she glared at him but he could easily see her tinted cheeks she is trying to hide.
He called for the dinner and the dishes made Isha's day.
She loved the white sauce pasta she had the first time when she came out with her husband which was on their first anniversary, and she ordered it every time they went out, so he made sure to add that in the menu today.
"You want to have something other than this ?", Abhyansh asked his wife if she wanted to have anything more other than the menu he chose.
The chefs and the servers who came there to personally take the king and queen's preferences are left in shock hearing Abhyansh's tone he used at his wife.
Cold yet soft.
"No Rana sa...
This is a lot", she said and he nodded.
The staff served the starters to the couple while Isha detailed about her husband's preferences to the chefs for the main course, this place is hosting the king for the first time so they don't know his preferences, so Isha is detailing the them who left after taking note of everything.
Isha had the white sauce pasta completely while just tasting the rest all items of starters, she didn't take a second serving of many items citing she need to save a room for main course though she liked it.
Abhyansh frowned at his wife's limited appetite.
He even discussed it with the expert doctors who expressed that this might be because of practicing limited or low intake of food for years and he knew that's the case with his wife but she willingly didn't do it, Kailash and Sheela Rajput made her go through all that.
His fury on them doubled. Well a part of him blamed himself too who made her starve for days.
"Try this, you liked it, didn't you ?", he said offering her Bruschetta...
"I liked it but I have no space left, I can't have main course if I eat this", she said, "I have to eat this noodles too...", she said digging into her plate...
"Isha...
What did the doctor say ?? You need to gradually improve your appetite bacha", he said softly
"I am trying Rana sa", she whined
"You are not trying enough", he said strongly and she glared at him for scolding her...
"Next time, I won't come out for lunch or dinner with you...
You are rude even here", she said and he sighed
"It's just that I want you to eat to your heart's content, it took me 2 hours to customize this menu for you", he tried to use her love for her and that worked.
She had to take a second serving if her husband had put so much effort into this, she thought and had it.
But as a result her noodles plate was left half filled.
"I can't eat this...
You have it", she said forwarding her plate to her husband who shook his head at her with a smile and took her plate of noodles.
Exactly at the very same time, the staff entered with the main course, they quickly served and left the place to hide their shock at the scene they just witnessed.
Isha giggled looking at her husband who is now eating her leftover noodles.
"Poor them, they struggled hard to hide their shock", Isha said hiding her chuckle.
Abhyansh ignored his childish wife who loved teasing him.
They finished their dinner and Isha asked him to buy a cone ice cream which he did on their way, he took her to his private estate where both of them enjoyed the cool breeze sitting in the lawn.
She slowly brought up the topic of his Europe trip and his decision of leaving Bhairav here.
Isha tried to convince Abhyansh to take Bhairav with him but Abhyansh didn't agree.
She tried a lot but when she knew she couldn't convince her stubborn husband she gave him an ultimatum to either take Bhairav with him or cancel the trip.
She bluntly told him that she wouldn't allow him to leave without Bhairav and that made him agree but in return he made her agree to his terms which she had to follow until he returns and she agreed though unwillingly.
"I promise you, I won't break any of these rules, you can go without any worry...
Go, finish your work and return soon", she said, she so wanted to tell how much she will miss him but she can't...
Her sadness will only cause him distress which she doesn't wanna give him.
"I'll have fun with ma and Avyan till then, such a relief, there won't be anyone to disturb us Or get jealous over our bond", she said teasing him, he smirked pulling her into his lap and tickling her...
"Ah..
No Rana sa...
Leave me...
Huh... I can't... Laugh.. Anymore... Leave... Me...", she said between her laughter making him smile at her cute laugh. He left her when she held her stomach unable to laugh anymore.
The couple enjoyed their time in the estate, Isha didn't feel sleepy as she slept the whole day while Abhyansh never felt sleepy except for in his wife's arms, the estate filled with greenary brought peace to them and in the early wee hours they left to the palace.
Days passed and the day for Abhyansh to leave came sooner than anticipated.
Abhyansh instructed his wife hundred times about the Do's and don'ts, he tightened the security and asked his brother-in-law to come and live there until he returns to which Ranveer happily obliged as he gets to pacify his sister while Isha glared at her husband for it.
Here she is trying to give her brother the taste of his own medicine by not picking his calls while her husband called him to stay at their palace ? But could she win an argument with her husband when he decides something ? No.
She is packing his bag while he reiterated his speech for the nth time.
"Charge your phone, always have the Gps switched on in it.
Everyone that enters the palace will be checked, except for our family and your brother, do not get mad at security team, are you even listening ?", Abhyansh asked when his wife didn't give any response to him while he was speaking like a mad person for the past half-an-hour.
She ignored him and continued to pack his bag.
"It isn't a joke Isha...
Take this seriously", he scolded her, she gave a look taking a deep sigh before pressing the play button in her phone.
"I know it's not a joke, I know it's serious.
don't worry, I will take care and follow all your instructions", her voice note read, he smiled at her antics.
When he reiterated the instructions last time, she told she would record voice notes as she is tired of replying the same thing to his same instructions sheet which he repeats at least 10 times a day from the past few days.
"I am just worried for you bacha...
I trust you with everyone else in the family, but when it comes to yourself, you don't take enough care and that worries me", he says and she plays another voice note surprising him.
"No need to worry, I'll take care of everyone including myself...", the voice note read
"What about the security arrangement ? You won't get mad at the team for...", Abhyansh started but even before he completed his sentence she ran another voice note.
"I won't get mad at them, like I said I'll follow all your instructions, everyone that enters palace will be thoroughly checked, and yes, I'll take care of my phone and charge it from time to time", the voice note read
"You have prerecorded all your answers ? How do you know what I'll ask ?", he asked though he knew the answer just to hear her voice but she bet him there too...
"You have been ranting the same stuff from the past 6 days, my ears are bleeding hearing to it, please stop at least now", another voice note read and he chuckled.
He walked to her and pulled her cheek at her antics...
"Ah...
Rana sa...
Move away", she said swatting his hands off her cheek...
"Finally...
You opened your mouth...", he said
"Ha...
Had to...
If I know you are gonna pull my cheeks, I would have voice recorded it's response too", she said finishing the packing.
"Why this sudden love for the voice recorder in your phone ?", he asked pulling her by her waist.
"Not for the recorder, it's my love for my poor throat which will die if I keep replying you the everytime you reiterate your instructions", she said and he chuckled capturing her lips in a soft kiss smooching her petals with his warm ones softly...
"God! I missed these", he said and she glared at him...
"You kept kissing them till early hours, and you say you miss these ?", she said breaking the kiss and he glared.
"You know I can't get enough of you...
How am I gonna survive without you Rani sa", he said joining his forehead with hers...
"You'll be back soon...
I know...
Just take care of yourself, I know Bhairav and your whole team is there but still, please take care, I have detailed the chefs, I have given the needed recipes, packed snacks as well...
Tell me if you need something, I'll send you", she said and he nodded kissing her forehead. She prepared mixes and masalas for most of the dishes so that her husband will have some proper meals in her absence.
They walked to the hall, Abhyansh gave one final look to his wife who nodded at him with a smile indicating she would fulfil her responsibilities well.
He nodded and after telling Rajmata he left from there, Ranveer and Avyan went with him till the airport as Abhyansh has a few things to discuss with the both of them.
Isha purposely didn't go to airport as she was afraid of breaking down, she is holding her walls strongly as if they crumble she will fall and along with that, her husband's trust in her that she could handle everything in his absence will also fall and she wouldn't want that so she composed herself.
In the night, after reaching Europe, Abhyansh called her and they spoke for some time before Isha asked him to take some rest as he might be tired from his journey.
But what she doesn't know is it's not his time to take rest, but make his enemies rest in peace.
The next day, Isha's cousin Anuj came there, after all the security checks, he walked in.
Ranveer is surprised to see him there...
"Anuj...
Sit here...
I'll be back with Avyan, then we can move to Rana sa's study", Isha said, Ranveer frowned
"Excuse me ? Hello...
Guys, what's going on here ?", Ranveer asked looking at Isha which she royally ignored...
"Anuj...
What's the issue", Ranveer asked
"Isha asked me to...", Anuj started but got interrupted by Isha...
"Anuj...
Let's go, we'll sit in the room there", Isha said and Anuj nodded understanding Isha didn't want him to inform Ranveer about anything, he sighed and walked behind Isha.
Ranveer frowned, dialing his brother-in-law immediately to complain about Isha who was ignoring him royally, she initially wanted to forgive her brother but her husband reminded how wrong her brother did to her by hiding this.
"Your wife is testing my patience Ranawat, I can't stay here", Ranveer said into the phone as soon his brother-in-law picked up...
"Rajput...", Abhyansh said painfully groaning, rubbing his head and temples to control his temper...
"Talk if there's anything important, otherwise hang up", Abhyansh said, loading his gun again...
"Of course it's important...
Your wife called...", Ranveer started but three gunshots stopped his words in midway...
"Clear the place", Abhyansh ordered before getting back to the call...
"You were saying something about my wife Rajput ?", Abhyansh asked
"Your wife ? No, no, I was talking about my sister...
It's nothing important, I was just saying Ishu is such a good host, and she cares for me so much, anyways, you might be busy, carry on with your work, bye", Ranveer said and after receiving his brother-in-law's 'hm', Ranveer quickly hung up sensing the BEAST's bad mood, who knows he might shoot two bullets in his head too for disturbing him in the middle of his important work.
Anuj and Isha settled in the outer cabin in Abhyansh's study, her husband asked her to use the main study, but she didn't want to take anyone to that place which held sensitive information related to her husband's empire.
Though she trusted her cousin, she didn't want to take any risk with her husband's company.
Avyan came there after 5 minutes, and both the men politely greeted each other.
"Like you asked to find out about that girl Anshi...
I did, here are my findings...", Anuj started and told about her brief summary in the next 5 minutes...
"And here comes the main part Isha, you asked me to find out about her wedding and things related to it, and I did...
your suspicion is right, her wedding was cancelled. The groom's family called it off after they got to know her being taken to the CD on the orders of His Highness, Yuvraj Avyan Singh Ranawat", Anuj said, Isha held her head at the mess while Avyan looked blank, this explains Anshi's fury that day, his one act distorted her whole life ?
Can he be any more guilty ? Avyan cursed himself for not listening to his 'bhabhi ma' that day...
"People in the neighborhood also said that the groom's family insulted Anshi and her parents a lot, they said some very mean things to her which no parents could hear against their daughter", Anuj said and Avyan fisted his palms to control his anger while Isha shook her head in distress.
"Avyan...
Avi...", Isha shook his shoulder when he didn't respond to her calls...
"Bhabhi ma...
I destroyed her life...", Avyan said and Isha's heart broke looking at the guilt on Avyan's face...
"No, You saved her life from people like them, she can never be happy with people who have such low mentality...
You remember, I promised you, I'll make everything right", Isha asked and Avyan nodded.
"I still hold to that promise, Anshi's happiness is our responsibility Avyan and I'll make sure she marries someone who cherishes her, respects her and most importantly trusts her...
Don't worry...Okay ?", Isha asked and Avyan nodded again... Isha understood that her brother-in-law needed some alone time so she asked him to go and take some rest. Avyan thanked Anuj for his help and left from there.
After talking for some time, Anuj too left for the Rajput palace where they are currently residing.
The next morning, when Isha didn't find Avyan at the dining table, she asked Amruta who told her that Avyan had gone to the office as he had some important work but one look at her brother and she understood where Avyan was headed.
She asked everyone to carry on with the breakfast while she rushed out.
Ranveer wanted to follow his sister but he knew Avyan wouldn't like his involvement in this matter, so he asked his men and Abhyansh's security team to take care of Isha and keep him posted.
The whole way Isha just hoped Avyan didn't do something stupid coming in guilt but she is too late to wish for it.
Three hours later, Avyan and Isha returned home...
Isha called the family for a meeting, everyone thought it's to renew or change Pratap's punishment but what she said shook everyone to the core, especially the fact that Isha took such a big decision without consulting Abhyansh shocked them.
"Avyan is getting married, Start the preparations for the same", Isha said and left from there for two reasons, first being she felt guilty that she took this decision without consulting Amruta who has many plans and dreams for her younger son's wedding, second reason being she knew there will be questioning and she couldn't answer their questions now.
