Prisha
No one questioned me nor Adithya about our behavior at the hospital. Mumma prepared my favorite cupcakes the next day and we started talking. She is a typical mom who never feels the need to apologize and I am fine with that as she was already scared for me and I played that stupid prank. It was equally my mistake.
When I asked Adhi why no one questioned us, he said Aunty thought I felt safe with him because he was a police officer and saved me. Everyone agreed with her logic so no questions were raised regarding our relationship.
Adithya asked Tanu to move out as soon as her boyfriend came back and she had to agree having no option. I was actually grinning ear to ear when she left and Adithya teased me for the whole day saying I was jealous of his so-called friend.
It's been two months since the arrest of that killer. He and the other culprits were punished accordingly after 4 hearings as the case grabbed public attention and people started to come out demanding strict and immediate punishment for the culprits. There were a few supporters of the so-called Swami Ji who tried to cause hindrance to the public lives and the police had to issue 144 section. Adithya was rarely home the entire week.
The next week passed in Adithya and Nihal along with other officers gathering as much information as possible to make the case strong. I was not allowed to step out of the home until the judgment was announced. Adithya personally drove me to the court when I was needed for the hearings. He stayed by my side the whole time at the court.
He also assigned a few officers in addition to mine and his dad's personal security. My brother was no less. He got CC cameras installed all around the home and got all the windows at him changed to bulletproof the next day of the kidnap. Bhabi told me that he assigned a group of security officers just to monitor the security systems of our home. These men are hard to handle at times.
Yesterday the court announced the death penalty for Paramananda Swamy and lifetime imprisonment for the people who helped him. My wounds were healed long back but none of my family members are ready to accept it. I understand about others but Papa, Bhai, Bhabi, and Ma'am are behaving the same saying I was not completely healed. They are doctors for crying out loud and the reports clearly said I was completely fit and fine.
"Priyu... Adithya is here," Bhabi shouted from the living room making me roll my eyes. Well, my family decided that it would be better for me to learn some self-defense and they chose one and only Mr. Adithya Malhotra to be my personal trainer. It was actually he who gave that idea to my father and offered assistance.
So, here I am standing in front of a mirror pulling my hair into a tight ponytail at 5 in the morning. Why can't he just let me sleep peacefully? And am I not injured according to all of them? Then why do they want me to do those workouts instead of letting me rest?
I walked out with a grumpy face to let them know how interested I was in their idea. My parents have yet to wake up while Bhai and Bhabi are ready to go to the hospital as they have surgery scheduled at 6. Adithya was talking something to Bhai but both of them stopped abruptly on seeing me making me roll my eyes.
"Good morning, Prisha," Bhabi chirped. How is she energetic early in the morning? No, she is not an early riser. She only wakes early when her presence is needed at the hospital. I looked at my brother skeptically who just shrugged in reply.
"I don't think my morning is good, Bhabi. You have a great day," with that I kissed her cheek, hugged my brother, and walked out ignoring Adithya deliberately. How can he be so cruel towards his rabbit?
"Rabbit," He called out walking behind me as I opened the gate of my home. I continued to walk ahead paying no heed to him.
"Rabbit yaar," His voice came out as a whine and I had a great urge to turn around and pull his cheeks but I restricted myself. I opened the gate of his home and walked in.
"Where?" I asked once I was in the living room.
"In my gym room. But yaar rabbit why..." I started climbing the stairs not listening to him. I am really pissed at him. He didn't even kiss me for a whole damn week and the first thing he suggested after he got free was to teach me self-defense.
I was pulled back and pressed to the door by Adithya as he stepped in behind me and pushed me to the door. My eyes widened in shock but I glared at him, quickly recovering.
"Gussa ho?" He asked showing me his puppy eyes. How can this man look hot and cute at the same time? His black t-shirt hung loose on his torso covering his abs but the flex of his biceps and his viney hands resting beside my head are enough to make me gulp. A few strands of his hair fell on his forehead making him look hotter. His gaze was fixed on me and the intensity of those eyes made butterflies flutter in my tummy. His sharp jawline, growing beard, those small droplets of sweat, everything about him is screaming sexy.
(Are you angry?)
Concentrate, Prisha!
"Nahi, bahut kush hoon. Naachne ka man kar raha hai," I tried to push him away but he got hold of my hands and held them up with his one hand. He moved closer and placed his leg between mine making me gulp audibly. What the hell is going on in his mind?
(No, I am very happy. I feel like dancing,)
"I am sorry rabbit," His face moved closer to mine and his lips danced on my right earlobe as he whispered those words in my ear. I tried to get away from his hold but that only resulted in his hand tightening on my wrists causing me to arch my back.
"I am sorry, baby," He whispered in my left ear and placed a kiss on top of it making me close my eyes.
"Sorry, sweetheart," He placed a long kiss on my forehead. Instead of moving back, he slid his face down from there dragging his lips from my forehead to between my brows, down to my nose. He placed a kiss on my nose before touching it with his nose. By now my heartbeats turned erratic while goosebumps danced on my skin.
"I am sorry, love," He whispered right on my lips, his lips touching mine as he uttered those words. My mind went numb as his hand slid to my back pulling my flush onto himself. A gasp fell out of my lips as my soft breasts touched his hard chest.
"Aa...adhi," my voice was low as his lips moved to my cheeks before trailing down to my neck, kissing my pulse point. My movement was restricted and my toes curled as his beard tickled my throat.
"Say you forgave me, Rabbit," He demanded continuing his ministrations on my neck. Words didn't leave my mouth as his lips moved from my neck to my throat.
"I...I forgive you, Adhi," He left my hands and moved back a little. I missed the warmth as soon as he moved back but didn't comment on it. I just moved away from the door and stood in the middle of the room waiting for him to instruct what I had to do.
"By the way, why were you angry, rabbit?" His question made me whip my head in his direction. He didn't know why I was angry but was saying sorry.
"You don't know?" I questioned and he just shrugged pulling me into a hug. I wrapped my hands around his torso and rested my head on his chest inhaling his musky fragrance.
"Then why did you say sorry?" I asked.
"Because you were angry at something I did and that was enough of a reason to apologize," He confessed making me smile.
"You didn't speak to me properly for a week and when I thought we could finally spend some romantic time together, you came up with this stupid training," I complained. He chuckled hugging me tighter.
"I don't want you to be in the situation I found you again, Rabbit. I have lost my shit knowing you were kidnapped. This will help you save yourself until I find you and will assure me about your safety when I am not around, about your romance, this training can be romantic in many ways and you will see soon," He lightly pecked my lips making me look away blushing.
"I actually thought you would want to break up after that incident saying how I was in trouble for being in a relationship with you," I confessed. I actually thought so as his reason for rejecting me first was the risks associated with his job.
"I am very selfish to let you go, my dear rabbit. I realized we both couldn't live without each other and on top of that you won't leave me peacefully even if I ask you to break up, will you?" He joked at the last making me sigh.
"Never! You are stuck with me for this and all the coming lives," I tightened my hold around him making him chuckle.
"Thought so," He kissed the top of my head and nuzzled into my neck as we enjoyed being in each other's embrace, knowing we would be together forever.
