Surviving the Monster

*Chapter 19*

Nandini's pov.

I came out after wearing a comfortable night suit and headed towards my side of the bed. I laid on the bed and Manik immediately pulled me towards him.

I - what are you doing?

Manik - my morning kiss is still pending Nandini. Even my afternoon, evening and night's kiss is pending. So you have to give me my kisses along with interest. Okay?

I looked at him and furrowed my eyebrows.

I - what morning afternoon evening and night's kiss? What are you talking about?

Manik - we have not kissed each other since morning so my kisses are pending.

I - I kissed you while we were taking pictures. Don't you remember that?

Manik - that was not an actual kiss. It was just for a picture. I need an actual kiss or you can compensate the loss of kisses by joining me in the bath again only if you want.

I looked at him with widened eyes and mouth and than slapped his hand which was kept on my waist.

I - have some shame.

I said.

Manik - why to have some shame in front of you Nandini? You are my sex partner after all. We are with each other for all this things only, aren't we?

He held my chin and made me look in his eyes.

Manik - aren't we, Nandini?

He asked again and I just nodded my head in yes slowly. He smiled and came near me.

Manik - may I?

He asked and I kept my arms on his chest and slowly pushed him away saying - you may not.

Manik - what? Really? But why?

I - I am tired and I want some nice sleep.

Manik - you can sleep after a kiss.

I - I know that you won't stop after a kiss. You will go more far than a kiss and I am too tired for all this. Let me sleep.

He sighed and then said - fine but I will get my kisses from you with interest tomorrow so be ready and yeah I won't take any of your nonsense reason tomorrow. Okay?

I - fine.

I said and turned around side and fall asleep.

Next day.

I woke up and sat on the bed. I looked around and Manik was not in the room. I shrugged and stood up to start the day. I immediately took a shower and stepped out wearing a short dress. Because of Laura I actually had to buy all sorts to short dress from mall and even had to carry it here. I don't mind short dresses as I looked cute in them but it's not so good to wear this in front of Manik.

I walked to the living room and saw Manik sitting in the balcony looking at the sky. It was weird as he works most of the time. But today he was just sitting there.

I walked to the balcony and sat on the chair kept in front of him.

I - am I disturbing your privacy?

I asked as I didn't want him to think that I was pocking my nose.

Manik - no it's okay you can sit here. You are looking good.

He complimented me and I just murmured a thank you. I don't know if this is my imagination or reality but I feel that he actually looks at me differently. Before whenever I wore a short dress or something he always looked at me with lust in his eyes that use to get me a little uncomfortable but now I don't see that lust in his eyes.
