CHAPTER 10

Author's Pov

He was driving while focusing on the road. She glanced at him. His kurta was fully drenched with blood. The smell of blood...she felt nauseated. "Stop the car!" She shouted while covering her mouth.

He slams on the brakes, the car skidding to a halt on the side of the forest. The sight and smell of blood clearly affecting her so much. He watched her. She went out of the car gasping for breath. Breath in. breath out.

"Aarushi" Before he could go near her she stepped back from him. "Please stay away! I can't with the smell"

He stilled in his place. "Are you okay?" he steps back giving her space. She shook her head.

He whirls around, his eyes flashing with annoyance. "You think I'm going to leave my wife because she's too delicate to handle a little blood?"

"I'll take a cab or something" she asserted.

He shakes his head in disbelief, his voice dripping with sarcasm as he scans the dark forest. "A cab? Really? In the middle of the forest?"

He turns away, his back to her. He starts unbuttoning his kurta, his movements stiff with tension. He pulls it off, revealing his bare, muscular back. He balls up the bloodstained garment and throws it into the bushes.

Her eyes widened. "What the hell? I made fun of you! How can you be turned on!"

"Turned ON? Really...?" he faces her again, his bare chest glistening slightly in the moonlight. "I just wanted to get rid of the Kurta. It's your dirty mind that sees something else here. Stop fantasizing and reading those erotic books!"

She frowned. "Wait how do you know?"

"Did you think I wouldn't notice the collection of 'romance novels' hidden under the mattress? I'm your husband, not a fool"

"You touched my books without my permission?"

"You entered my life without my permission. What about that?" He shook his head. "You called me Hawasi after reading those books?"

He clenched his jaw and closed his eyes calming himself. "The smell nauseated you so I threw the kurta. Now please come and sit inside the car Devi!" He gestured his hands towards the car.

As soon as she sits inside the car, Rajveer slides into the driver's seat, his expression thunderous. He starts the engine and pulls out of the driveway, his hands gripping the steering wheel tightly.

"Keep the windows open, please"

"As you wish, Devi," he replies rolling down the windows. The cool night air rushes in, carrying the sounds of the night and the distant hum of the car's engine.

Rajveer stopped the car near their mansion. She got out and started walking but he pulled her back. She raised one eyebrow. "What?"

"Don't you dare to tell anyone about what happened there!" He said coldly.

She takes her hand back. "Pyaar se bologe toh maanungi!"

[If you speak lovingly, I will agree]

He glared at her. She glared back. "Yeh aankhein kisi aur ko dikhana mai nahi darti samjhe! Pyaar se bolo!"

[I am not afraid of you, show these eyes to someone else! speak lovingly]

"Aur nahi bola toh?"

[And I didn't then]

"Hmm...chilla chilla kar bataungi!" she raised her voice. "Chalo ab bolo bhi mere kaan taras rahe hai" she said while blinking her eyes.

[I'll shout and tell everyone] [Come on say it, my ears are yearning for it]
