She looked into his dark gaze through the mirror with her flushed face. She moved her gaze down when he placed his lips on the side of her neck.
She closes her eyes and bites her lower lips to stop herself from moaning. Although she is sore and tired after last night, his intoxicated touch is doing something to her because she is again craving for him.
Veer was busy showering butterfly kisses on her neck, shoulders and throat when they heard a knock on the door.
"Someone is here, Veerrr…"she moaned loudly when he bite her collar bone before leaving reluctantly.
He looks at her face and smirks as she is looking messed up with heavy breathing and red blushing face.
Beautiful!
Veer thought and kissed her red cheeks which were burning in shyness.
"I see who is there on the door," saying he first wore his t-shirt and then opened the door.
"You need something, Avni," he asks, finding Avni on the door.
"Good morning, Bhai. Where is Bhabhi?" she asked him, smiling at him.
"Oh, Good morning. She is here," he told her and opened the door for her to come in,
"Come in," She walked inside and saw Preet pinning her saree pallu on the blouse.
"Avni, you are here. Do you need something," Preet immediately asked as Avni walked in.
"You two talk. I will go take a shower," Veer went inside the washroom.
"Can't I come to meet you," Avni said, making a fake sad face.
Preet chuckled and went near her.
"Of course you can. Come sit here," they sat on the couch.
"You look so pretty in a Saree. Can you teach me how to wear it? I love them but don't know how to deal with them," she pouted, making Preet chuckle and she nodded at her.
"My poor Aarav is already bowled in your love. You made him crazy with your normal clothes then imagine his condition if he would see you in Saree. How much you wanted to torture him, huh?" They chuckle at this and Avni smile evilly and said,
"A little more doesn't hurt, right?" Preet laughed at her.
"Wait!…what is thi-... Hickey? Is that-'' Avni frowned as her eyes fell on her neck when Preet unknowingly brushed her hair from front.
But then her expression changed into shock before a teasing smirk formed on her face.
"Someone has a sleepless night," she said, making Preet glare playfully at her but seeing her blushing hard, Avni giggled like a little girl.
"Baby, soon your Badi ma will bring you a little sibling so you won't feel alone. Isn't it exciting?" she said in a baby voice as if the baby could hear her.
"Payal ho gyi tum," Preet scolds her, lightly smacks her head but Avni is still grinning at her.
"Preet, where is my tie?!!" they heard Veer shouting from the closet for Preet.
Avni smirked and wiggled her eyebrows teasingly and went out saying,
"I should go now. Bhai is probably calling for your help," Preet turned red as Avni walked out while giggling.
"Stupid girl.." Preet muttered and shook her head at her childishness.
"Preet!!" she jogged inside the closet to see Veer searching for his tie in his drawer.
Hearing her steps, he turned toward her and asked her to find a tie.
She sighed at him and started looking for a tie that went with his three-piece suit.
Taking a maroon tie, she turned to him and started knotting it around his neck. She is smiling slightly, feeling his hands moving softly on her waist.
"Don't disturb me, Veer," she scolded him when he sensually started moving his thumbs along the waist where her saree was tucked inside.
"I am not disturbing you. You are just not focusing enough," he whispered near her face, placing a light kiss on her jaw. She sucked a breath and looked at him with a slight blush on her cheeks.
"Why did you wear a saree today? Are you not feeling uncomfortable in this," he asked slowly looking into her beautiful eyes.
"No, I love wearing them," she told him and adjusted his collar properly.
"It's done," she said, smiling sweetly at him.
He loves it when she smiles. Her smile is just so beautiful and calming. He felt an unknown peace in his heart when she smiled at him.
He cupped her face gently and placed a long kiss on her lips.
They pull away after a minute and look at each other as if their world exists in each other.
She kisses his cheek lovingly and grins at him.
"Let's go and have our breakfast. You must be getting late,"
"I can't, Preet. I have a very important meeting in half an hour. I should leave now," he told her, giving an apologetic look.
"But.." he peck her lips making her silent and said,
"I don't have time, sweetheart. You have your food and don't worry I will have something from the canteen," he told her and wearing his watch, he walked out of the closet.
Preet follows him and gives him his hanky and wallet. He look at her and kisses her forehead,
"Take care,"
"Aap bhi.." she whispered. With this, he went out taking his phone and car keys.
She sighed and decided to get ready for her work. She went to the kitchen and made herself a cup of tea and took a sandwich for her breakfast.
She is about to take a bite of a sandwich but stops seeing Urmila coming inside the dining room.
"Malti!!" she shouted loudly and Malti came running out of the kitchen.
"Ji, Badi Madam," she asked in fear as she looked angry.
"I asked you not to let outsiders touch our kitchen utensils then how come she is having her breakfast and using my things, huh? Don't you tell her?" Preet looked at her in shock and hurt hearing her words.
Did she hear right?
"Vo mada…"
"This is the last warning, Matli. I don't want to repeat myself," Saying she was about to go but Preet's voice made her stop.
"Why are you doing this, Choti Ma," she asked with a hurt filled voice. Looking at her with teary eyes.
"I am doing what I should have done long back. Showing the right place to you and your husband," Preet felt her heart breaking feeling at her harsh and cold tone. Standing from her chair, she took a step toward her.
"We didn't do anything wrong to you and this family. You ask me to stay away from everyone, I accepted that without any protest then why this anger?" Urmila chuckles at her and looks at her with hatred.
"It's not anger, Preet. I loathe you and Veer," Urmila said in a poisonous voice. Looking at Preet with hatred.
Preet feels herself tearing up at the bitterness she has for them.
"This much hate, Choti Ma. But why? What is the reason?" Preet whispers as a tear rolls down her.
She can never think she hates her this much. What hurt her?
"Why? You are asking me. You and Veer snatch everything from me. Everything belongs to you and Veer. What about my Aarab? Ma never thinks about him and his future. The best thing belongs to Veer, then whatever is left is given to my son. Why? Is he a beggar or a servant?
I cant see this discrimination with my son and daughter in law. You being the best bahu of this house will have control over this house and everything will be done as per your order. And my daughter in law has to beg you for every little thing. Is it fair with my children huh?
Now the same fate my grandchild will have after your child is born. The main royal palace of Jodhpur belongs to Veer, the Rajvansh Sons corporations belong to him, the Raina Sheel Mahal which was given to the eldest one in the family as a legacy.
But you know what your and Veer's child will get that only because she or he will be his child. I face discrimination, now Avni and my son are facing discrimination and in the future, my grandchild will face the same fate. But I won't let that happen even if I have to go against Ma or my husband.
I will fight for my children's future. You get that. You and Veer are the main hurdles in my dream," Urmila keeps babbling whatever comes into her mind.
Her hatred makes her insane. She turned blind to see whatever she was doing and thinking was wrong.
Preet turns stiff as her brain tries to grasp the things she just heard. She never thought Urmila would think like that about her and Veer. She doesn't know if she should feel bad for her naivety or feel disgusted for her low and cheap thinking.
Preet wiped her tears and looked at her whose eyes turned red in rage and gave her a weak smile,
