Chapter 19: Wet and Wild*

The next morning, the first light of dawn softly filtered through the curtains, casting a warm, golden hue over the room. The atmosphere was peaceful and serene, a gentle contrast to the excitement and chaos of the previous day. The air was filled with a calm stillness, broken only by the faint sounds of birds chirping outside and the soft, rhythmic breathing of the couple nestled together in bed.

Hira and Shubman were wrapped in a cocoon of warmth and comfort. Shubman lay on his back, his chest rising and falling steadily. Hira's entire body was draped over him, her head resting just below his chin. Her arm was slung across his stomach, her legs intertwined with his. The closeness of their bodies provided a sense of security and deep connection.

She slowly stirred, her eyelids fluttering open. She took a moment to adjust to the gentle morning light before looking up at his face. He was still fast asleep, his features relaxed and peaceful. She felt a wave of affection wash over her as she admired him. Her eyes traced the lines of his face, from the slight arch of his eyebrows to the curve of his lips. She noticed the way his long eyelashes rested gently on his cheeks and the faint shadow of stubble on his jawline.

In that quiet moment, Hira felt an overwhelming sense of gratitude and love. She smiled softly, her heart swelling as she continued to gaze at him, taking in every detail. She reached up gently to brush a strand of hair away from his forehead, careful not to wake him.

Suddenly, without opening his eyes, Shubman spoke, his voice low and slightly teasing. "Stop staring at me," he murmured. Hira's eyes widened in surprise, her heart skipping a beat. "How did you know I was staring?" she asked, a mix of shock and amusement in her voice.

A slow, lazy smile spread across his face as he finally opened his eyes, revealing the warmth and affection in his gaze. "I could feel it," he replied, his voice still soft and slightly groggy. "Plus, you've been doing it for a while now."

Hira blushed, her cheeks tinged with pink. "I couldn't help it," she admitted, her voice barely above a whisper. "You just looked so peaceful. I wanted to remember this moment." Shubman chuckled, lifting a hand to cup her cheek. 

"Well, I'm glad you enjoyed the view," he said, pulling her down for a gentle kiss on her forehead. "But next time, maybe wake me up so I can enjoy it with you." She laughed softly, feeling a rush of happiness. "Deal," she agreed, snuggling back into his chest.

As they lay cuddled up for a few more minutes, Hira eventually decided to get up and freshen up. She moved to disentangle herself from Shubman, but in her half-asleep state, her hand accidentally brushed against his groin. Shubman let out a deep, involuntary groan of pleasure, causing Hira to freeze in place, her eyes wide with surprise and embarrassment.

Shubman, now fully awake, grabbed her gently but firmly, pulling her back towards him. In one swift motion, he hovered over her, his eyes dark with a mix of amusement and desire. "You're not going anywhere now," he teased, his voice low and husky.

He leaned down, his lips brushing against her neck, planting soft, teasing kisses along her skin. Hira's breath hitched, and she felt a shiver run down her spine as he continued his assault, each kiss making her pulse race faster. He whispered against her skin, his voice dripping with lust. "You're mine this morning."
