The next day Nikhil had booked their stay at Ramgarh Lodge another property at lease with The Taj Hotels.
It was a dmall boutique hotel which was originally the hunting lodge of the Maharaja but was now managed by a couple on behalf of TajHotels.
It was situated at s distance of 35 km from Jaipur surrounding by lush green forest area . Just opposite to the hotel was a beautiful lake full of clear blue water.
Nikhil had booked a historical two bedroom suite in the hotel. The suites were marvellous Again the furnishings were blue in colour and each bedroom had two queen beds with a blue sofa and led tvs. In addition the living area had a bar and dining table. One of the bedroom opened to a huge balcony which gave a complete view of the lake.
Jiya and Nikhil freshened up in the exquisite bathrooms. The bathrooms had a huge tub and an open shower area and all sorts of luxury toiletries,
Nikhil had ordered light lunch for both of them comprising of rice yellow dal and raita .
After lunch they went to explore the nearby jungle area eith a guide.
"Nikhil this place is so beautiful and peaceful, away from the noisy streets of the city."
She saw peacocks roaming freely and many other beautiful birds and animals in the jungle. They returned by tea time.
Mrs Verma served some delicious homemade cookies and pastries with the tea . There were only two more couples staying in the resort and both were on their honeymoon do they kept to themselves only.
Since the view from their balcony was very nice so Nikhil decided to get their dinner served in their room.
Jiya had enjoyed this trip but she missed Sagar. Not once had he called to ask about her . When he was with her he always tried to kiss her or take her to bed .Was she only a means to satisfy his sexual desire or a challenge since Sagar had not been able to bed her yet ?
Nikhil was such a nice guy who had never once taken advantage of her but her heart beat for Sagar and not Nikhil.
Sagar had been informed by Ritwik that Nikhil was taking Jiya to Jaipur . He knew that Nikhil was trying to seduce her but he was helpless because his situation was out of control. Every day the newspapers were filled of news of his relationship with Jiya. His photograph with Jiya on the terrace had twice made to the front page and the private investigator had hinted thatan insider from their company was involved in the leak.
At this stage if he met Jiya her reputation would be further ruined.
But he felt that shewas slipping from his hands becsuse this opportunity was godsend for Nikhil and Nikhil would make sure that he succeeded in his mission.
Jiya took rest for an hour and then changed into a dark purple kneelength dress for dinner. She had left her hair open andappled purple lipstick on her lips .
Nikhil had changed to jeans and a long sleeved check shirt . He was looking very handsome ,
The dinner was arranged on a round table with a silk tablecloth and beautiful bone china crockery. In the middle of the table was placed a scented glowing candle.
Flower petals were placed in water filled containers in the corners of the balcony and the railing was decorated with small diyas. The lights had been switched off and round candles spread across the entire balcony with a moonlight view of the lake was giving a romantic feel. The entire scene was enchanting .
Jiya was fascinated by the view , " Nikhil this is so beautiful that I can sit here the entire night "
When Nikhil saw Jiya in that offshoulder purple dress he fell more in love with her. She was so beautiful that he could not take his eyes off her.
"Jiya you are stunning,You can't blame me if today I lose my restraint and kiss you"
He lowered his mouth towards her to kiss her but she stopped him," Nikhil we had agreed on being friends only"
"Ok Jiya ", he agreed reluctantly.
They sat down for dinner but their was sexual tension in the air.
"Jiya you are so quiet. Don't worry I won't pounce on you."
"It's not that . I am enjoying the view . It is so lovely here. Thanks for bringing me here Nikhil."
"Jiya I have ordered chocolate pudding I hope you like it"
"It is delicious. I love it, " saying this Jiya licked her lips.
Already Nikhil was turned on but this gesture broke his restraint fully and before Jiya could react his mouth had descended over hers and he kissed her passionately. It was a full blown kiss and Jiya could not stop him.
"Jiya I want you so much that the last few days have been pure torture" .
His lips had moved from her lips to her neckand then he kissed her shoulders. Before he could move further she stopped him.
His eyes were full of lust and she was surprised by the intensity in them,
She started to leave the balcony but he caught her hand, " Jiya dont take me wrong. I love you and want to make you mine. Infact I planned to ask you to marry me but things went out of hand."
"Nikhil You are a nice guy but You know I don't love you ."
"I know that but then there is no one else in your life so eventually you will learn to love me . I am ready to wait. Don't worry you don't need to answer me right now. You take your time ."
"But"
"No buts darling just don't stress on this . I am prepared to wait as long as possible."
"Ok goodnight Nikhil "
"Goodnight love,"he kissed her forehead and left.
