Say You're Mine (Lovestruck In Bangalore #1)

Chapter 36

I MEERA I

Vikram finally turns the key into the lock and pushes the door open. He looks back at me and I can feel my nerves building at the thought of what's going to happen next. I'm excited but I can't help but worry that I might mess up.

He hesitates for a moment when he sees me staring at him.

"Meera, you don't have to-", he starts but I immediately cut him off.

"I have to because I absolutely want to", I tell him as I hand him the helmet and jacket. He takes them from me before placing them on the floor besides the shoe rack inside. He looks back at me and whatever he must see there makes him yank me inside with him by my wrist.

As soon as we enter his apartment, Vikram pushes me up against the door after kicking it shut with his foot. He has a thing for pushing me up against surfaces, be it a wall, a door or an elevator.

It's not like I'm complaining, it's so hot.

He places his hand on my hip, bringing the other to the wall beside my head. He leans his upper body closer to mine and I have to tilt my head to look up at him.

"I want to hear you say it, Meera", he says, looking at me with his lustful eyes.

"Say what, Vikram?", I ask him, acting oblivious. We both know what he meant. He tugs me by my waist and my body ends up plastered front to front with his. His other hand cups my jaw.

"You know what, you little minx!", He says as he strokes my cheek, his eyes moving from my eyes to my mouth and back.

"I really don't, Vikram", I tell him trying to sound innocent. The keyword being "trying" because I know that the smile that I tried to snuff out gives me away.

"You like making me beg, don't you, Meera? But isn't it time we put an end to this cat and mouse play already? Come on, say it. I have to hear you say it with that beautiful little mouth of yours", he says.

"I... Vikram", I can't think when he trails his lips down my jaw like that. He placed a kiss on my throat before gently biting my earlobe and I chuckle lightly. That tickles. I didn't know I was ticklish there!

"Say it. Say you're mine", he says against my neck before lifting his head to look at my face.

My eyes move to his sensual mouth, ready to argue, out of reflex. But when I see the look of love and adoration mixed with pure carnal desire in his eyes, all fight leaves my body. My body relaxes and from the look on his face he knows it before I even say the words, "I'm yours, Vikram!"

He releases a sigh as he leans his forehead against mine. ''Say it again?", He whispers.

"I'm yours, Vikram", I tell him, a little amused and very pleased at his reaction.

"Again", he says.

"I'm yours", I say, chuckling.

"Are you laughing at me, Meera darling?", he asks as he leans back to look at me. He has a challenging look on his face, it's adorable.

"Nuh- huh", I shake my head but a small laugh breaks free.

"You are. You are laughing at me. Well, forgive me, but that's the first time you've openly said that to my face. I've heard you say that a million times to me in my dreams but it's not the same hearing you say it while you're in my arms", he says and I swoon a little.
