Fated To Be One (Unedited)

{Garv's pov}

I sat on the bed after getting ready for the function and stared at my wife who was in front of the mirror doing her makeup, oh it's Inayat Haldi ceremony today.

I stared at her figure, how beautiful she is. I am just imagining her in her 7-8 months of pregnancy, she will look adorable.

She turned towards me and stared at me, now what have I done? "What happened berry?" She walked towards me and stood in front of me. She removed my arms from my lap and sat on my lap, damn she has become bold. But, I am not complaining.

"Don't you think you are forgetting something?" What am I forgetting? As much as I remember I am not forgetting anything.

"I don't think so," I said and she folds her arms in front of her chest, okay so I am actually forgetting something, but what is it?

"You said you will get me chocolates after the function is over, where are they?" Oh I am doomed.

"I will order it, I am sorry berry." I said placing a gentle kiss on her cheeks and she couldn't help but smile.

"Soon," she warned and was about to get up when I held her waist not letting her budge. "I have to get ready" she said, but, "you are looking pretty already, how much ready do you have to get?" I asked and she stared at me.

"Don't Look at me with those eyes," oh ok she is testing my patience, I held her by her neck and pulled her face closer to mine. Our breaths were Falling on each other's faces.

I was about to join our lips but stopped, let's tease her. But what caught me was her joining our lips. The kiss was soft and passionate.

I broke the kiss when she was struggling to breath and She looked at me, "you ruined my lipstick," sighs, "you were the one who joined our lips berry," I smirked and she rolled her eyes.

"Clever," she said and walked towards the mirror fixing her lipstick.

They both walked downstairs as my hands still held her close by her waist, as we reached downstairs my mother's voice took out attention, "Ishika, come you have to start the ritual. Come apply this turmeric on her face."

I begrudgingly let go of her as she walked away, my gaze lingering on her as I watched her approach his mother. I knew I had to keep my desires in check for now, but it was a struggle to not pull her back into my arms and claim her as my own.

I stayed where I was, taking a deep breath and attempting to compose myself as I prepared to join the festivities and spend the evening entertaining our guests.

I turned to the voice, recognizing Ishika's cousin as she approached me with a sly smile on her face. I raised an eyebrow in response, immediately on guard as I tried to maintain a polite yet distant demeanor.

I could sense something was off with her, and I was wary of her intentions.

"Missed me?" Is she dumb or what, my mind racing as I wondered what she was up to.

"Hardly," I replied, My voice carefully guarded. I didn't want to give her any indication that I knew of her true intentions.

"Is there something specific you wanted to talk about?" I asked, my voice betraying no hint of warmth or familiarity.

"There's a lot of things you can help me with," she spoke, making me narrow my eyebrows.

"I'm not interested in helping you with anything," I said firmly, my voice leaving no room for misinterpretation. I knew that she was trying to provoke me, and I wasn't going to give her the satisfaction of getting under my skin.
