Tere Bin - Magical Moments

9. True love.

Meerab is sitting lost in her thoughts. She is now wondering what just happened. She was missing her parents and should have told this to him but why she ended her topic on love? When she is not in love with anyone, especially not Murtasim who is her namesake husband. She doesn't even consider him as her husband... Or maybe she does. She is confused now as her mind is full of doubts. She can't trust anyone easily, especially when it comes to trusting a man.

Mariyam loves Anas but that is not enough for her to believe. She needs to find the truth and also has to change his decision as his decision is final. She sat on the dressing table forgetting that she already applied lotion. She hit her forehead when the realisation struck her. Again her dream flashed in her mind

Dream

Meerab is setting her hair when Murtasim came behind her and stopped noticing her. When he stopped Meerab's breadth hitched on sensing his gaze on her. She felt her heartbeat raised, she looked at the ground feeling nervous. But why? Why she is nervous and shy to look at him? She took a long breath to control herself and opened her eyes to look at him angrily

"Murtasim why are you looking at me like this?", she asked angrily

"Why? Can't I stare at my wife?", Murtasim asked while setting his hair while looking at the mirror. Meerab glared at him but suddenly her eyes softened on seeing his innocent face. She knows he is not innocent but still doesn't have any idea why she is feeling bad for him. And why the hell is his intense gaze sending shivers through her body?

"No, you can't...", Meerab replied and looked down as she felt her cheeks heating up. Did she wonder why? He didn't even touch her yet then how can his gaze affect her? She bite her lower lip with a smile and looked towards the mirror to check Murtasim and noticed him stepping forward. Her heartbeat raised sensing him coming close to her. She feared that his closeness made her lose herself and she accepts him. What if his proximity made her lose her self-control like always?

She doesn't admit but his presence always makes her lose herself. She fears that he took the next step in thier relationship and after some time she comes to know that he was also cheating on her. What she will do then?

"Why ?", Murtasim asked in a husky voice and stood just behind her. Meerab closed her eyes tightly in nervousness. She felt her legs shaking because of his proximity. His scent smells so sweet and she can easily feel where he is standing without opening her eyes. She held her dress tight in her palm feeling his hot breath on her shoulder. She gathered the courage to continue with her stiff behaviour because she doesn't want to fall into his trap

"W... Why are you coming close?", she fumbled when she noticed Murtasim decreasing the distance between them. She tried hard to look unaffected but couldn't because her heart knew he has a great impact on her. His touch and presence affect her as no one did till now. She stood up and turned to fight with him but his gaze and eyes full of desires and passion sent shivers in her whole body. She turned again showing her back towards him and gulped to gain strength. She took a long breath and pressed her both lips together to control herself from breathing heavily due to his proximity

"Because I can't control anymore. I want to breach this contract ", Murtasim whispered walking towards her and intertwining their fingers together. Meerab wanted to pull her hands back but couldn't because her body responded positively to his touch and she liked his presence. His presence felt safe and comfortable. She lost the ability to speak when his cold hand touched her soft and warm hands. She lost her sanity when she felt hot breath fanning her shoulder

"You look beautiful. I love you and can't leave you. I want to cage you in my love so that you will give yourself to me in the end", he whispered and kissed her shoulder, Meerab's breath hitched feeling his lips on her shoulder and she started to take long breaths. She closed her eyes tight again to control herself from calling his name as she want to push him but here her body is allowing him to do whatever he wants.
