Shehnaaz Maniyar: The Twin Sissy Blessing Or Curse

Greedy Rida

Sidharth gave an inward smile at her overblown confidence. She was just as Nidab had described, all innocent one minute, raging sex siren the next. It was a heady combination, he had to admit, but while Nidab hadn't been able to contain his desire for her, temporary as it had been, Sidharth felt confident he was in no danger of being tested beyond his control. Shehnaaz Maniyar was the total opposite of what he most wanted in a partner.

He loathed shallow money-hungry women who had nothing better to do than throw themselves in the hope of attracting a rich husband. He'd been surrounded by them for most of his life, with the exception of his Ammi, who had had both style and grace.

No, Miss Shehnaaz/ Rida Maniyar was fooling herself if she thought he would fall for her physical charms.

I am not like my brother, Miss Maniyar, he informed her coldly. My tastes are a little more upmarket.'

Shehnaaz wished she could slap that imperious smirk off his handsome face but knew there would probably be distasteful consequences if she did. She clenched her hands into fists and glared back at him.

I could make you eat those words and we both know it. I saw the way you ran your eyes all over me the moment I opened the door.'

I admit I was a little intrigued as to what made my brother act so incautiously.' His lazy look took in her heaving chest and feisty gaze. But I can assure you I have no appetite for foolish women such as yourself.

Shehnaaz schooled her features back under control with difficulty. I take it this marriage arrangement you're proposing leaves you free to interact with other women?'

I will do my best to be discreet if the need should arise.

What about me? she asked. Am I allowed to indulge myself similarly?'

Sidharth didn't answer immediately but she could almost hear the cogs of his brain ticking over as he considered her question.

Well? she prodded with an arch look.

No.

No?

He shook his head in slow motion, Absolutely not.'

You can't possibly be serious. Shehnaaz snapped her brows together again.

Deadly serious Sidharth said and folded his arms across the broad expanse of his chest.

You surely don't expect me to agree to such a double standard? Shehnaaz asked. What am I supposed to get out of this arrangement?'

You get to keep your child, with a rich husband thrown in as a bonus.'

Shehnaaz let out her breath in a whoosh of feminist outrage. I thought men like you died along with the dinosaurs. Seems I was wrong. So, how are things on Planet Chauvinism these days?'

I am not by nature a chauvinist but I am sure it will do you good to be celibate for a while to concentrate on your responsibilities as a mother.

Ironic laughter bubbled to her lips before she could stop it. Unlike her sister, who had lost her virginity at early age, Shehnaaz was still a virgin. But on principle she wasn't going to let him have things all his way.

You find the prospect of being responsible amusing? His tone dripped with contempt.

Shehnaaz coiled a strand of her long hair around one finger, hoping he wouldn't notice her chewed nail as she affected another seductive pose.

You're a laugh a minute, Mr Sidharth Ansari, she said. All this talk of being celibate is hilarious. I haven't been celibate for years and I'm not about to start for you or anyone.
