13. Amour

Avni's hands reached the back of Neil's neck, their lips still connected, moving against each other in harmony. Neil tugged her lips, seeking to deepen the kiss, his senses seduced by Avni.  Avni let out a moan which echoed in Neil's mouth, arousing him even more. He had not planned to kiss her out of his own desire, rather, he wanted to comfort her. She seemed so miserable. Avni felt intoxicated in the palpable atmosphere, her heart pounding. When Neil kissed her again, she felt the oxygen slam out of her lungs. 

Avni was lost. She was in the middle of a sea of oblivion. Watching the moment she anticipated the most to come crumble right in front of her was no piece of cake. She came back from the jaws of death. She longed to see her baby brother about whom she now had no idea what happened to him. She pined to see Dayawanti Mehta being punished for her crimes, and she was unaware of all what happened during the moment she lapsed into unconsciousness. At the same time, battling with her growing feelings for Neil was just exhausting. She felt some qualms about trusting Neil after what he did the previous time but somehow, she could understand why he was annoyed at her. Though, she could not deny that she was hurt when he set her up. His presence by her side when she was facing the biggest moments in her life was the kind of support she craved for all her life.

She loved him. She loved all of him, she loved his smile, the way he winked, the way he pushed his fingers through his hair, but the thing she loved the most about him was that he was a pure soul. Though they had a rough start, she gradually began to emote something and when he first kissed her, that's when she grew conscious that the unnamed feelings was all along love and she was so taken in her revenge saga that she failed to acknowledge it. 

Neil on the other hand, was ensnared by Avni. She was so alluring by herself that he wondered how God could have sculpted someone so bewitching. True, he wanted to get Avni to confess and arrest her because he had slammed the doors to his heart shut. He didn't want to have anything to do with her and when her conspiracy managed call off his wedding, he seeked the opportunity to get close to her, still refusing to heed to his heart which yearned for Avni. But after knowing about snippets of her past, his resistance melted and he wanted to hear the side of her story. His responsibility was to seek justice being done and maintain law and order. Avni was not the real culprit. It was the ones who wronged her, those who corrupted her and he wanted to purge those criminals from the very base of society. Right from when he saw the vulnerable Avni, he felt like he fell in love with her again. He wished to become her pillar, support her through thick and thin and help her in seeking justice.

Neil gently got Avni to lie down on the bed, slightly parting from the kiss. Avni's chest heaved up and down frantically, a wave of heat enveloping the two of them. Neil intertwined his hand with hers, his forehead resting against hers, his torso pressed against her upper body. The energy pulsating through their bodies echoed through their gazes and heavy breaths. Neil melted when he saw Avni looking at him so tenderly and he spontaneously brought his hand to her face, his thumb roughly brushing her lips. Neil felt his desires fuel as he heard her whimper underneath of him. Her swollen, moist lips- with his saliva- were like an oasis, that could quench his thirst. 

Avni gingerly rose her arm and cupped Neil's cheek, his eyes following her every move. Avni closed her eyes as she felt the pressure of Neil's lips on her palm. Avni recalled him staring at her right before she was about to confront Dayawanti. It killed Avni to not know of what happened, she needed to know. He gazed sincerely at her, worry getting the better of him as he noticed Avni's eyes getting glassy.

"Avni," he began hoarsely, his finger skimming the tears away. Avni gulped, trying to get the words that were stuck in her throat,"N..neil,the suspense is killing me, I need to know what happened," she let out shakingly as she leaned her head against his chest.
