Chapter 49

Vritika's POV

I feel a hard yet warm blanket and pillow surrounding my body. I snuggle closer to my pillow wrapping my arms around it. I feel a manly scent hit my nose as my senses awaken in a mere second

I snap my eyes open immediately and leave my mouth agape open. My eyes caught the sight of his body wrapped around me as I cuddled into him like I was a three year old. My eyes move down our bodies and I gulp slightly

I see his face close to my forehead as I inhale a deep breath. My hands were tightly clutching his torso as his hand loosely rested on my waist and lower back. Our legs entangled into each other as he took systematic breaths

I blinked slowly trying to unwrap my hands from around him as I pulled my body away from his. I shrieked as I felt a pull on my waist as my body landed on his again in the very next second. I blinked my eyes rapidly in shock as I looked over his closed ones

"Its still early in the morning. Just keep sleeping" his husky and deeper than usual morning voice reached my ears as I sucked in my lips trying to sneak a peek at his face as he tugged my waist closer to him again

"And stop biting and sucking on your lips" he said as his other hand landed on my lower back tugging in my hips towards the side of his. I felt my breathing raise up at every second as he took a breath

"Or I might just end up doing those things for you" he said in the same hoarse and deep voice as goosebumps arose on my skin at the slight tickle his voice left in my body. I just laid there silently trying to find ways to get out of his arms

"Since you are not sleeping let me ask you somethings" he said, wrapping his arms around my back lightly moving his index finger on my spine. I shivered a little under his touch and looked to meet his eyes for a second

"Why did you say yes that day?" he asked and I felt my heart skip a beat. I know the day he is asking about and I have been asking this question to myself since a long while back now.

"I am feeling sleepy" I said, and shut my eyes closed and hid my face in his chest. I felt his hand travel up my body leaving a trail of goosebumps all over my arm as it passed from there. His hand wrapped into my hairs

"Vritika" he said in a stern voice and I blinked my eyes open meeting his eyes for a mere second. I fixed my eyes on his shirt's first button as his fingers moved through my hair putting my mind into a trance kind of state

"I did that because I was fulfilling my promise but you could have said no that day" he said and I reached my hand towards his button slowly tracing it over his chest and I felt him take in a deep breath as a groan escaped his lips

"I mean not that you are just a promise to me. You mean much more than to me now and meant even back then too" he said and my breath struck in my throat. My stomach did a small summersault and I felt like I was on a ferries wheel

"I have asked myself the same question several times" I said after taking a deep breath and rolling my fingers around his button as I flipped it with my fingers. I couldn't keep myself quite after what he just said

"I couldn't never come to proper answer, maybe I could never find anything to deny in you" I said and looked a little up too see his eyebrows furrowed which indicated his confusion with my words

"I couldn't find a single reason to deny the offer, you are handsome, caring, respectful, and well I knew you would never leave me alone" I said, clutching the button of his shirt tightly in between my fingers

"What about love? Isn't that a reasonable reason for rejecting somebody? Isn't it the building block of relationships?" he said twirling his finger in my hair and pulling me slightly closer towards his chest as I inhaled the scent of his body
