Shadows of control

27. A night of passion.

Sofia's pov:

The ring, a symbol of his love, now adorned my finger. Ansh was driving the car and I'm sitting right next to him ,I couldn't contain the mix of emotions swirling within me. He was changing, transforming himself for me. Lost in thoughts of our new life together, the car came to a halt.

As a bodyguard opened the door, I stepped out, my breath catching in my throat. A sleek helicopter stood before me, its rotors humming. Ansh, looking effortlessly cool, waited beside it, his hands were tucked in his pocket.Our eyes met, a silent conversation passing between us. Then, with a gentle gesture, he opened the helicopter door.

As I stepped into the helicopter, a wave of confusion washed over me.
"Who's going to fly this ? Am I supposed to sit next to the pilot? Then where will Ansh sit? Between me and the pilot ?"
I couldn't help but chuckle at the absurdity of the situation.

A few moments later, I couldn't believe my eyes. Ansh was settling into the pilot's seat!
"No way, he's going to fly the helicopter?"
I thought to myself, a mix of surprise and amusement. He buckled himself in and then turned to help me fasten my seatbelt. As I looked at him, I couldn't help but ask,
"Do you even know how to fly?"

He gave me an amused smile saying ,
"Hmm."

He handed me the headset, his eyes sparkling with mischief.
"Ready?"
he asked, a grin playing on his lips. I nodded, excitement bubbling within me.

As we prepared for takeoff, Ansh leaned into the microphone and spoke,
"Moscow Center, this is Echo-Seven-Two. Requesting permission to fly a sightseeing route over the city center."

I couldn't contain my excitement.
"Are we really going to fly over Moscow City?"
I asked, a wide grin spreading across my face.

He nodded seeing my excitement.
"Buckle up, Amore"
Ansh said, his voice low and intense
"And hold on tight"

As darkness enveloped the city, the helicopter ascended into the night sky. The city lights twinkled below, creating a breathtaking panorama. Lost in the beauty of the moment, I didn't notice Ansh's gaze on me. It was my first time flying in the air.

his voice firm and clear.
"Control Tower,this is Echo-Seven-Two. We're inbound for Moscow City, currently cruising at an altitude of 10,000 feet. Requesting clearance to descend to 5,000 feet for a closer view"

Why does this man sound so professional?

As a child, I had often dreamed of soaring through the sky, and now, thanks to this man, that dream was becoming a reality.

Our exhilarating flight finally came to an end. As we descended towards the landing pad, I couldn't help but marvel at Ansh's piloting skills. He had handled the helicopter with the ease of a seasoned pro, even pulling off a few daring maneuvers that had sent shivers down my spine.

The helicopter descended, its rotor blades a blur against the darkening sky. It settled before the imposing penthouse, it was the same penthouse when he had locked me.

He saw the fear in my eyes, a flicker of terror in the darkness. A strong hand reached out, seizing mine, pulling me from the void. With a gentle tug, he guided me towards the penthouse, a beacon of hope in the encroaching darkness.

As the door slid shut, he turned to face me, his gaze steady.
"I know,"
he began, his voice low and reassuring,
"I am the reason you feel that fear. I cultivated it, nurtured it, until it consumed you. But trust me, soon, this fear will be no more."

He guided me to the bedroom, its soft glow illuminated by the flickering candlelight. As he shed his coat, his gaze lingered on me, a seductive glint in his eyes.
he murmured, his voice low and inviting,
"Will you mind taking a bath with me?"

"A bath, huh?"
I replied, my voice a mix of surprise and a hint of intrigue.
"Sure, why not?"
I said yes but still I don't know how to react after getting in,I'm such a dumass.

He led me into a grand bathroom, its opulence rivaling a royal chamber. A massive bathtub, more like a small pool, dominated the room. As he stepped in, a silent invitation, he gestured for me to join. Hesitantly, I stepped into the warm water, my body surrendering to his embrace.
