Arranged To Be His 🩵

Chapter 10

Nandini's pov

there was a noise ringing in my ears so I turn hiding my face in my pillow but the noise doesn't stop making me groan, if it's cabir I am going to kill him.

I open my eyes and find myself in a room, the kind I have never seen before like ever, it had beautiful sheer curtains and the gorgeous furniture. the stupid noise distracts me so I look around and find a phone, not mine obviously so I turn it to silent.

I look to find myself beside a man making me jump back until I realized it was manik, right because I got married. It wasn't my pillow, it was manik's back that I was trying to hide myself into.

Wait a second, I thought I was in the flight, clearly I slept for many hours because I don't remember anything at all. His stupid phone rings again displaying Arun's name

"Hello" I yawn picking it up

"Heyyyy girl, it's Arun"

"Hi Arun, how are you"

"Perfect, you?"

"Good actually"

"Thats good to hear, where is your stupid husband" he asks making me giggle

"Sleeping"

"Wake up his ass and tell him his best friend is calling" I laugh

"Give me a second" I say putting him on mute

"Manik" I shake his back

"Yeah" he mumbles turning to me

He has a handsome face, the way his features were relaxed was nice because he is always so stressed.

"It's arun"

He opens his eyes grabbing the phone putting it on his ear closing his eyes again

there was a lot of humming and not many words in his conversation but there was one thing I liked and that was that he didn't leave the room to talk or ask me to leave like my father always used to.

I know that we are in the mafia, both our families have enemies but that's about all I know. I have never really gone out alone or just with a friend because well friends and I don't do well together. I have never really had friends because I was so bullied in school.

my father didn't like me going out much, I wasn't even able to go and have ice cream outside or go to the park unless mom, cabir and navya are all going which was rare because the schedules wouldn't align and with Niya it was a bit difficult too

"Ya arun I got it now let me sleep" Manik says on the phone, he hums a couple times and then cuts the call

"Go back to sleep" he orders

"Not sleepy anymore, mhm I'm going to go shower" I whisper

He hums a little closing his eyes again, I get up going to the bathroom and honestly I may not find him the sweetest soul but he has good taste. his penthouse back home and this one now, they both are done so well

I showered taking my sweet old time with it, I even put lotion all over my body, yeah something I don't do often because it takes too much time and im lazy.  I put on high waisted shorts and a cropped tee becasue I am comfortable in shorts

Seeing that Manik was still sleeping, I wandered off int his huge ass mansion, they had a god damn room with laptops, a presentation room with a projector and everything. There was also a movie theatre and gosh the kitchen was beautiful

the marble island and the tiles gosh, it's so beautiful. There was a matte finish to some cupboards and let me tell you if this is what this house looks like then im intrigued on how our house back home looks like

i look around in the fridge and find it fully stocked, everything you could need was here, there was even a pantry there with more things and gosh I was in love with this kitchen.

Deciding that I am hungry, I was making some eggs and toast. i grab the things I need and began making food, once I was done, I plated the food, I even made some black coffee for Manik because thats all he drinks.

"Nandini" I hear his yell

rolling my eyes at his yell, I grabbed the tray walking upstairs, entering our room I see manik standing in front of the mirror setting his hair. He was wearing a white shirt and the way it hugged his body, his muscles were outlined.

the first few buttons were open and his selves were rolled up to his elbows perfectly. He looked very handsome, but I am not telling him that

"If you are done eye raping me, we have to go" he says

My eyes lift up from his shirt to his face to see that signature smirk on his face

"I wasn't eye raping you and I have breakfast" I say sitting on the bed

"We have to go Nandini"

"Food first, hasn't ma told you that you should eat before leaving the house" I ask patting the bed beside me

"No she hasn't" he mumbles sitting down

He grabs his plate and his stupid phone rings again. He picks it up leaving it on speaker as he ate

"Sir we have the car ready for you right outside" the voice on the phone says

"Very well, we will be down in a few" manik says cutting the call

"Where are we going?" I ask him

"A couple meetings, and then we can have dinner tonight" he says

"Like a romantic dinner" I ask

"Define romantic" he mumbles smirking

"Candle light, flowers, heels, you know"

"No, I don't"

"You are so unromantic" I whisper

he chuckles a bit hearing it. We finished eating and then I put on sandals since my feet were still hurting but not as much as before manik massaged my feet, it was such a sweet gesture for him to do

We got in the car that was waiting for us and manik was on his phone doing something while I looked outside at the beautiful view, it was so nice and the house we were in was kind of secluded and in the middle of nowhere
