AYSHAM’S POV:
With my overwhelmed nerves and accelerated heart beat I couldn’t agree to him when he asked whether I wanted to have dinner outside or not. We did have lunch in one of the fanciest restaurants so I didn’t want to the same again so I decided to go back to the penthouse and order something there like normal people.
I was craving normal fast-food not any Italian or Mexican so I decided to have a cheese burger while he glanced at me with weird expressions.
“That’s unhealthy.” He remarked as soon as the lift opened and we entered our penthouse. I was so tired but still I competed with the urge to throw my body on the couch and sleep right then and there. But instead of doing that I sat down on the couch as I removed my sandals which had a few inches heels so my feet were hurting a little but that was bearable because no one or nothing could steal the smile on my face after what happened today. I was feeling so lucky that my mind was roaming back again and again to that street under that melting sun. Everything was simple and yet everything seemed perfect. He made out with me on the street for quite ten minutes making my lips swell like plum as I knew that without looking in the mirror.
“It’s not. It had chicken and carbs. Our body needs that.” I tried to make a point as he was typing something on his phone most probably related to his work.
“And trans-fat too baby.” He smirked looking at me while turning off his phone giving me his complete attention. I rested my back at the couch’s head rest as I grabbed one of the shopping bags to avoid his heated gaze.
“But that’s only thing which have taste.” I muttered as he chuckled at my response.
“You are stubborn but you should take care of your health too butterfly.” He said as he came to sit beside me on the L-shaped couch taking the shopping from my hand and placing it somewhere else and rested his head instead of it. He laid down on the couch with his head in my lap as I turned beetroot when he grabbed my hand started peppering kisses on the inside of my palm.
“I’ll.” I agreed generously although I wasn’t like him who was eating healthy food since he was born. I would have a lot of cheat days in between it.
“I am happy.” He admitted with his eyes closed making a smile to crawl up my lips as the feelings were mutual. I started running my fingers in his hairs with my other hand as he opened his eyes to look at me with those orbs swirled by emotions. I couldn’t divert my eyes as I looked into those green orbs only to get drown in them.
“I can’t believe I have you.” He rasped as if he was drowned deep in thoughts while saying that with his warm gaze kissing every feature of my face. My scarf wasn’t around my neck as I loosen it to untie my bun which was loose cascading careless flicks around face. Since they were opened now so few hairs were tickling his neck but he didn’t seem to mind that. It looked like he liked every bit of that as my hairs were acting as a curtain casting shadow on his face. I couldn’t remove my hairs as one of my hands was in his grip while the other one wasn’t ready to let go off his hairs. I started biting my lower lip as his constant gaze was making me do so. He was about to say something when his phone rang and he got up with a sigh.
“Here’s your cheese burger.” It was one of his men who brought us our food. The men weren’t allowed to enter the penthouse I thought because of me so Farzan went himself to bring the bags.
The fragrance of food filled the atmosphere and my face turned into a delightful smile making him smirk at me but ignoring him I kept gaze on the food which he was bringing towards me.
“Let me get the plates.” I said but he didn’t let me and motioned me to sit as he came with the plates and everything in one tray looking just like a husband material not any type of mafia man. I am glad he didn’t ask me to go to the dining table as I was so tired to walk so, he assembled the plates on the wooden table in front of me and served me like a pro.
“Thank you.” I chirped as he poured me the drink.
“Eat and then you would do exercise with me…” He threw a bomb at me. “…in the morning.” He further added looking at my wary expressions. My shoulders relaxed a little hearing about morning because I would handle him in the morning as right now, I really need to focus on my food.
“Khud ki terha khana bhi boring khatey hen. (Eats boring food like himself.)” I mumbled as I glanced at his small piece of beef steak with lots of salad.
“You think I am boring? I have the most interesting life.” He asked as I should not be surprised at his sharp senses like a vampire.
“Really? Beating people isn’t interesting.” I retorted back as he took an exasperate sigh.
“I have done plenty of adventures like cage diving.” He tried to make a point.
“It must be Muzamil bhai’s plan.” I said as we talk while eating.
“That’s not important. The fact is I did that.” He stated as his expressions felt like he wanted to kill Muzamil bhai at that time.
“He must have begged you to go there.” I said and that was it he left the last piece of his steak and with one grabbed me from my waist pulling me on his lap. The position was now I was straddling him with my half-eaten burger in my hand.
“People wish to have a life like me.” He said as I squirmed with scared expressions as his eyes were getting darker and I was sitting just above his thing which wasn’t a good thing while eating.
“They…then…” I have to focus right now. “…don’t know what’s happening inside it. They…” I was saying but there was a shudder in my spine when I felt him moving underneath me and that turned out to make my burger fell down from my hand. It didn’t fell on his shirt but it did fell on my white frock making it more gross with that orange colord cheese. My lower lip puckered out as I looked at him who chuckled at my response.
He picked up the burger from my lap before putting me on the couch grabbing me by my waist like a baby who was just about to cry seeing the disaster her burger went through. It was still edible as only few bites left but my dress was ruined.
“You should change. I’ll bring you your clothes. Where are they?” He asked as he cleaned my dress with a tissue as he didn’t let me do anything. He was chuckling at my response seeing my lower lip puckered out as he out of nowhere pecked my lips making me look at him with rounded eyes but he just winked at me as he went up to bring clothes for me.
I was cleaning it with a tissue when my whole body went stiff with very fiber in my body alarmed when I realized where I put my lingerie and those pieces of clothes. They were in the wardrobe just beside our clothes as I emptied my whole suitcase. Red alarms started buzzing in my ear as I stood up like an electric shock but it was too late when I turned around to find him coming with a white silk lingerie in his hand. It was one of the expensive as the tag was still attached to it and I wondered why such a small piece of cloth was this expensive.
“Ah…oh…Areej gave me that.” I said as I started fidgeting my fingers with his constant gaze looking at me from top to bottom. Love and lust both were in equal amounts in his eyes at that time making me gulp the lump down in my throat. The atmosphere changed suddenly as he came towards me with gentle steps and stood right in front of me. My heart started beating erratically as I never thought he would ever find out about this. I wanted to stuff dry kidney beans in Areej and Suzi’s mouth at that time.
“I want to give them half of my worth now.” He rasped looking into my eyes as he mentioned Suzi and Areej.
“I’ll go…c-change.” I said as I was about to walk past him when he grabbed me by my wrist.
“You are but into this.” He said and I gulped when he further added. “If you want to.”
