Love that Hurts

IT TAKES TWO TO TANGO

*WARNING:THIS CHAPTER HAS MATURE CONTENT*

"Drop the act Raina. I know what you're trying to do.", Aryan spit. He knew she had acting sweet to get on his nerves, annoy him. He knew she had been putting up a front. 

Raina gulped, was he hinting at knowing her plan, her pact with his ex mistress?

NO! No! No!

Raina eyed him suspiciously as he went to freshen up. He came out with his torso wrapped in a towel, water still dripping down his abs. He was hot, no doubt that.

"Put on something ! Good Lord!", she immediately turned around as she felt her cheeks heating up.

He slowly walked upto her held her elbows firmly in his grip and turned her around, he was faced with a flushed face that tried its best to not confront his. He shook his head so that fresh droplets of cold water sprinkled on her heated face. It confronted the heat she was feeling but it nonetheless annoyed. His hands shifted from her elbows to her waist and her lips. She was nervous, his thumb slowly slid across her lips as she looked at him. Aryan was observing her with utmost fascination, how had he failed to notice every ounce of beautiful detail that was etched onto her face. She was never a beauty by any stretch, she had kind forgiving face. But in that moment he noticed every inch of her. The way she blinked rapidly, her large pupils fixated at him, her small yet pump lips hot with embarrassment , a tinge of redness spreading across the tip of her nose. Her skin glowed golden in the yellow light and her wavy hair wrapped her face perfectly . "You're so beautiful.", spoke Aryan looking deep into her eyes as a wave of bitter waves hit her.

FLASHBACK

Raina was waiting for Aryan to come back home, it was the night they had  won the league and she knew he would be late. He refused to take her for the celebrations saying she would embarrass him further infront of his friends and teammates. She opened her SNS and looked up Sana. There it was! On her stories. Pictures of her and Aryan cozied up and kissing  and dancing and - Raina felt her breath hitch up. She needed water and fresh air and she needed to be detached from the shit show that was her marriage .

She was nervously gulping down cold water when she heard footsteps. She walked out and saw Sana holding onto Aryan for dear life. That was when it Raina. He brought her into their house, the only place that was supposed to be her safe space. The only place where she felt it was her ground albeit only when she was alone. The privilege granted to her by her mother-in-law was being taken away by HIM for his mistress. She wouldn't let him do this to her, not this.

"Stop right there!", she gathered up her courage to  face him.

He looked at her menacingly, "What the fuck did you just say?"

"You cannot bring her here , not here."

"If you utter another word from that filthy mouth of yours, Ill make sure you're in no position to do anything worse."

Aryan walked her upto Raina's room, rested her unto her bed and came out to face Raina.

"How could you ? I mean do you not have any shame left anymore."

"I dont have shame left, when you're the one still here. Raina, I mean how thick skinned can you be?"

"WHY did you marry me if i repulsed you so goddamned much?"

"I never wanted to marry you in my life. Mere gale bandh diye tumhe Mummy papa ne. Isliye itne dino tak tolerate kiya hai, ab nahi. I dont want anything to do with you anymore."

"What does this mean?", Raina's lips trembled as she expected the worst to come out.

"What do you think it means? A divorce!"

FLASHBACK ENDS

Raina tried pushing him back but his hold only got tighter, she was sinking deeper into him. The more she tried pushing him back the more he took it as challenge to bring her closer to him. " Aryan, leave -", he caught her lips with an unimaginable hunger, like he hadn't kissed anyone for days, like her lips were the ones he had been craving for all his life, like he was a dying man in need of elixir. Raina found it hard to breathe and felt her heart picking up pace as his hands on her back pulled her closer. She lost touch with reality as his musk scent entrapped her, she was in a trance. With the way he held body, it made feel her feel wanted by him, the one dark desire in the corner of her heart. The way he went deeper and deeper for more, the way he touched her made her feel like she was important to him, like she was need. With delusion clouding her mind she kissed him back as she held his hair in a fist . He wrapped her legs around his waist as he carried  her to their bed, he made her sit on the bed as he pulled her shirt over her head to reveal her full breasts encaged , he began hungrily kissing her shoulders as her bra straps slowly started slipping down, her nails digging deeper into his bare back pushing him further in. He laid her down and began kissing her again when realization dawned her.

What was she doing? What the hell was she doing?

She pushed him aside and darted towards the spare room, red in embarrassment. She locked it from within and began crying. "What the hell is wrong with me? How could I let that man do that with me? What came over me?"

A soft knock came from the other end and she spoke with a shaky voice, "Go away. Leave me alone."

PRECAP

He's with me.

A text came from Sana. She had to be successful, or Raina didn't know what would become of her.
