chapter 18

Chapter 18Tasting sweet pleasureVed emerged from the bathroom after a shower and a change, looking sexy with his hair wet and tousled and a white fluffy towel slung around his shoulders. Ishiqa smiled with a mischievous glint in her eyes. “Why are you looking like a cat that is just about to polish off a bowl of cream?” he asked with a lazy grin.She laughed aloud, “Nothing really. You carry on.” When Ved turned away, she quietly got a handful of ice cubes from the freezer and put them down his back under his T-shirtHe jumped, as the ice slid off his skin. Ishiqa fell laughing on the bed, watching Ved struggle to take out the slippery ice. The laughter died when he turned and glared at her. The dangerous glint in his eyes warned her of his next move and she jumped off the bed, trying to escape to the living room. But she was too late. She struggled as he caught her by the waist and turned her around. He kicked the bedroom door shut with his foot firmly. “I am sorry, Ved,” she pleaded belatedly. The man had been so friendly all through the day; was he angry now, she wondered.“Leave you? Not one chance in a million!” he growled in mock anger.She kicked her legs in the air, as he picked her up and walked towards the bed.“I swear, Ved, I will beat you up. Put me down.” She tried to twist in his arms, trying to find some weak point in his hold. He chuckled throatily at her futile attempts and threw her down on the bed. “Beat me all you want to, but I am not letting you free this time.” He pushed her down on the soft mattress and pinned her wrists above her head. Kneeling down on the bed, holding her down and pinning her legs with his thighs, he started to tickle her waist. She giggled helplessly, twisting as he found her sensitive spots. She tried to escape, struggling ineffectively, but he held her firmly and continued tormenting her.  She breathed deeply, tired from laughing and drained trying to fight him off. “Enough, Ved, I can’t take it anymore.”Ved was now aroused, and he slowly dipped his head down. She whispered, trying to move away, “Ved no. Get up, please.” He silently covered her mouth with his own. It began slowly enough, but his desire took over and he hungrily kissed her, plunging his tongue into her mouth. She instinctively pressed against him, the onslaught of his mouth making her tingle from head to toe. Their lips locked in a long kiss as he determinedly probed her mouth with his tongue, not letting her go. They broke off for a second, gasping for air. The fight had gone out of Ishiqa. Even though it had always been a token fight only, her convictions and his respect for his promise had kept them apart. Now, Ishiqa feebly tried to push him away, but he caught her hands and held it to his chest as his head came down again, ravishing her luscious lips with his own. He traced the outline of her face with a finger, running it against her smooth, flushed cheeks and kissed her along her jaw line. His lips moved down, kissing her neck and seductively slithered down to her breasts. His hands now roamed all over her body as she moaned with pleasure, her hands grasping his hair hard; she tugged at his T-shirt and pulled him closer to her, feeling his muscular hard body against her soft palms.Ved tugged at her zip and pulled it down smoothly, kissing her smooth, creamy shoulders. He moved to the mole that sat enticingly on her collarbone and then buried his head in her silky hair. She was now as ready as he was. When he pulled down the dress carelessly, her exposed breasts heaved, inviting him to taste their sweetness. He cupped them, covering the rose tinted aureoles with his hands, and buried his head between them. His tongue slithered down her cleavage as she sighed and felt flesh meet flesh. He took the rose buds of her breasts into his mouth, teasing them with his tongue. She felt a sweet pain pierce her body. As she arched, he sucked on the delicate tips, nibbling and biting her nipples. Her hands too touched his dark nipples, and felt them hardening. His hands moved to her flat stomach and his tongue slipped into her navel, exciting her even more. Pulling her dress further down, he caressed her inner thighs with his hand, scorching the flesh as he pressed himself hard against her. The spell was rudely broken when his mobile phone rang loudly, bringing them back to reality with a thud.Â
