Heal my heart

RUDRAKSH'S POV

I watch Shivani as she sits quietly in the passenger seat of the helicopter, her eyes distant and filled with pain. The events of the past few days have taken a toll on her, and it breaks my heart to see her like this. She’s been through so much—too much. I need to get her away from all the chaos, somewhere she can breathe, somewhere she can heal.

I know this is temporary solution, she needs to face her emotions, her past to actually heal and I have talked to Dr. Mehta, she has reassured me that she'll work with Shivani extra. I want to do everything possible to see that beautiful smile on her face. The helicopter descends onto the private island I bought years ago, I am finally using it. I bought it for me, if I ever felt like being away from the world because I often feel that, and now I am using it for my wife.

The lush greenery and pristine beaches stretch out before us as we land. Shivani looks out the window, a flicker of curiosity in her eyes. It's a surprise for her. It's just me and her on this island and well some helpers.

I help her out of the helicopter and take her hand. "It's an island, you wanted to visit a beach right?" I say softly, hoping to see a spark of joy in her eyes. She gives me a small, tentative smile. "It's beautiful," she whispers. I lead her to the beach, the warm sand under our feet, the gentle waves lapping against the shore. I set up a picnic blanket and help her sit down. The wind rustles her hair as she looks out at the endless expanse of water, her eyes still clouded with sorrow.

We sit there in silence for a while, the sound of the waves the only sound around us. I watch her, her face betraying the storm of emotions within her. I want to comfort her, to take away her pain, but I know there's nothing I can do. It's her demons she has to fight. She turns to me, her eyes glistening with unshed tears.

"Why are you doing this for me?" She asks softly, her voice carrying a hint of vulnerability.

I take her hand in mine, intertwining our fingers. "Because I love you," I say gently, looking straight into her eyes. "Because you're my wife and I want to see you happy. Because you deserve it." She looks at me, her eyes searching my face for any signs of dishonesty. But she finds none, only the unwavering truth in my words.

Tears well up in her eyes, but she nods, her hands resting on mine. "Thank you, Rudra," she whispers.

I lean in and kiss her softly, pouring all my love and reassurance into that kiss. She responds, her arms wrapping around my neck as she deepens the kiss. The world fades away, leaving just the two of us, our souls connecting in that moment.

I reach up and brush a strand of hair away from her face, my fingers skimming her cheek lightly. She leans into my touch, closing her eyes for a moment, her breath catching in her throat. I can see the tears brimming in her eyes, threatening to fall any moment.

"I know it's hard," I whisper, my thumb tracing gentle circles on her cheek. "But you're not alone. I'm here. And I'm not going anywhere."

She opens her eyes, her gaze meeting mine. The tears escape her lashes, streaming down her face. I let go of her hand and pull her closer, wrapping my arm around her shoulders. She sinks into me, resting her head against my chest.

"I'm scared," she whispers, her voice trembling. "What if I can't handle this pain? It's so suffocating Rudra."

The pain in her voice cuts through me like a knife. I tighten my grip on her, holding her protectively. "You can," I say firmly. "You're stronger than you think, Shivani."

She looks up at me, her eyes pleading. "But it hurts so much," she whispers. "I feel like I'm drowning, like I can't breathe."

"I know darling." I pull her closer, cradling her against my chest."You have to continue your therapy, Shivani." I say, "you have to fight those memories, your feelings, and for that my darling, you have to stop refusing baby." I rub her back, trying to calm her sobs, "You are a fighter baby. so do it! For yourself, prove that bastard wrong. Live a happy life, not for me, not because you've to prove it to anyone, but because you deserve it." She trembles in my arms, her body racked with silent sobs. I hold her tighter, my arms around her like a lifeline, as if I can shield her from the pain.

"Rudra, I love you." She whispers.

"I love you too baby." I respond kissing her hair. Pulling back slightly she looks into my eyes. "I need you."

I lie beside her, my fingers tracing the contours of her face. “You’re everything to me,” I whisper, leaning in to kiss her gently. She responds, her lips soft and inviting against mine. Our kisses deepen, and I can feel the love and connection between us growing stronger with each passing moment.

My hands explore her body, moving slowly and reverently, as if I’m discovering her for the first time. I can feel her shiver under my touch, her breath hitching as I caress her. I want this moment to be perfect for her, to show her how much she means to me.

I undress her slowly, taking my time to savor every inch of her. She does the same, her hands trembling slightly as she removes my clothes. When we’re both bare, I lay her down gently on the blanket, positioning myself over her.

I look into her eyes, seeking her permission, her trust. She nods, her eyes filled with love and desperation, "I am here with you." I kiss her nose, I enter her slowly, watching her closely for any sign of discomfort. Her body welcomes me, and I can feel her relax under my gentle touch, "I will always be."

I whisper, kissing her deeply. “I’ve got you.”

We move together in a slow, intimate rhythm, the sound of the ocean mingling with our soft moans, "you're my world, Shivani." I groan.

I hold her close, my hands cradling her face, my lips never leaving hers.

“You’re my everything, Shivani,” I murmur against her lips. “My heart, my soul.”

She arches against me, her fingers digging into my back as we reach the peak together. The intensity of the moment washes over us like a wave, leaving us breathless and spent. I hold her close, feeling the steady beat of her heart against mine.

Suddenly she pushes me away, "Oh my god. We did it on a beach?" I smirk, she still can't say sex.

"It's okay, no one's here." I reassure her.

"How come?" She tilts her face. I love her, she's so adorable.

"We own this island baby." I pull her down with me.

"What the hell?" She exclaims, but before she could say anything I crash my lips on hers, her eyes closes as I devour her mouth, nibbling and biting her lips.

"That's secondary stuff, you will continue therapy right?" I ask genuinely concerned about her answer, I want her to be free, enjoy everything fully.

She smiles softly, and nods. I peck her forehead, "thank you, darling."

"But seriously, you own this island? She questions, I shake my head, " No, we own this island." I correct her.
