Beyond Destiny ~ A Saga Of Timeless Love

23 ~ Teasing

"I realized I was thinking of you, and I began to wonder how long you had been on my mind. Then it occurred to me that since I met you, you have never left."

Ruhanika

The sun is shimmering brightly, casting ardor to the surrounding ambiance. Birds are twittering loudly, creating a clangor that is preferably soothing. The ambiance is what a mortal would yearn for on a ragged day.

The chill waft blowing captures the grandeur of the aura. It is the ideal balance of coolness and warmth. This place exudes a distinct vibe that is lost in the modern world.

Butterflies are fleeing over the spectacular blossoms present in the garden. The ambiance is replenished with the fragrance of blossoms. The vibrant aura cast by the flowers is eye-catching. The trees are bent in an improper orientation, but still, they look exquisite.

It is true that everything in nature is not perfect but is still perfect. Although I was never a morning person, coming here made me realize what I was missing. Living in a world of cameras and technology, we fail to recognize and appreciate this small marvel of nature.

Sometimes, nature's splendidness is enough. We don't need photographs to capture this splendidness. We just need to feel this magnificence and capture it in our souls.

We can never have enough of nature. Nature is a home for everyone. Skimming at the equanimity of nature and admiring it is the first step in sanctifying the psyche and crux.

I came here to collect blossoms, eager to make today special. With every step I took through the garden, I gathered a variety of beautiful flowers, carefully arranging them into a vibrant bouquet. A sense of excitement coursed through me as I imagined what would happen today. He would see a different side of me, a side I had kept hidden. The thought made me smile, my heart pounding with anticipation.

I entered his chamber with light steps, my eyes scanning the room until they found him. He was in the practice area, his body moving with the rhythmic grace of Surya Namaskar. My breath caught as I watched him-every shift of his muscles, every smooth motion made it impossible to look away.

He was breathtaking. His well-sculpted body glistened with a light sheen of sweat, his bare torso gleaming in the sunlight that filtered into the room. His abs, perfectly defined, flexed with every movement, and I could feel myself getting lost in the sight of him. It wasn't just admiration; it was something deeper, more primal. I stood there, unable to do anything but stare, my heart racing as my eyes roamed over his body.

When he finished, his movements slowed to a stop, and he straightened. His head turned slightly, and his gaze caught mine. My stomach flipped. He knew I had been staring, and the devilish grin that spread across his face made it clear he was enjoying it. His dark eyes twinkled with amusement, and I could see the challenge in them-he expected me to blush, to shy away like I always did. But today was different.

He walked toward me, slow and deliberate, until he was standing right in front of me. His height, the sheer size of him, made the air between us feel charged with an unspoken tension. He was intoxicating.

"Are you done staring?" he teased, his voice low and rich with amusement, a smirk playing on his lips.

Normally, I would have stammered out some excuse, my cheeks blazing red. But not today. Today, I had a different plan. I met his gaze with a smirk of my own, standing on my tiptoes to press a quick, chaste kiss on his jawline. His eyes widened, clearly surprised. When I pulled back, I saw the flush spreading across his cheeks, neck, and ears. I bit back a smile, relishing this rare moment where I had the upper hand.
