After spending some fun time with my friends, I was heading back with Sidhh. As we drove, something kept nagging at me-every time I see him, he's driving a different car.

Curiosity got the better of me. "How many cars do you own?" I asked, turning toward him.

His eyes stayed focused on the road, but a small smile tugged at his lips. "I... I lost count."

"Seriously!" I let out a chuckle, rolling my eyes playfully. "I know you're Richie Rich, but this is beyond my imagination now."

He smiled softly but didn't say anything more.

"One day, Mr. Malhotra," I said with a teasing grin, "I'm going to park my Aston Martin right next to one of your cars."

"Aston Martin?" he repeated, raising a brow as if intrigued by my statement.

"Yeah!" I replied, my voice turning a bit dreamy. "You could say it's my dream car."

He glanced at me briefly, his curiosity evident. "Any particular reason why?"

"I love Alex Volkov," I admitted, letting my voice drop into a wistful tone. "In the book, he drives an Aston Martin the entire time."

A strange chill washed over me, and I furrowed my brows. The windows were closed, and the AC wasn't even that cold. Where was this coming from?

I laughed a little, trying to shake it off. "I can't have him in real life, so at least let me own the dream car. It's the closest I'll get to being satisfied."

Just as I closed my eyes, lost in the thought of my fictional book boyfriend, everything happened in a flash.

My seatbelt suddenly clicked open, and before I knew it, I wasn't sitting in my seat anymore. I gasped as I found myself lifted, weightless for a second.

Wait-what?

My hands scrambled for anything to grab onto, heart racing.

When the world finally stopped spinning, I blinked, disoriented, only to realize... I was on Siddh's lap. Straddling him.

For a moment, I couldn't breathe-couldn't even think. I was too stunned, too caught off guard by the sudden turn of events. My mind raced, trying to piece together what just happened, when suddenly, I felt his hand move.

Before I could react, his fingers slid behind my neck, firm and commanding, pulling me closer.

Then his lips crashed into mine.
