THE ROYAL AFFAIR

THE WEDDING NIGHT

Shnaya was taken to The presidential suite where Vikram was staying. Though she had seen it before when she had met Vikram to convey her decision but tonight it didn"t seem the same room.

The entire suite had been carefully and beautifully decorated as a bridal suite..

The living area was decorated with heart shaped balloons and white lilies . In the centre was a table which had a red rose bouquet wishing the newly married couple . Along with it a basket full of swiss chocolates and a bottle of very rare champagne with two crystal glasses..

The basket also contained white and red wine if they chose not to drink the champagne.

Vikram's cousin asked her to get freshened up and take some rest hinting her that Vikram would be arriving shortly.

Shnaya blushed on hearing his name. She was very nervous. She had never even had a serious relationship and no knowledge of the physical aspect of marriage. Vikram on the other hand seemed to be quite experienced. She was scared because what would VIkram think of her inexperience? Would he disapprove of her inexperience or worse even ridicule her for it? . Maya had been bold .Maybe she and Vikram had been intimate so Vikram might expect the same from her as they were both sisters.

Well there was no use fretting over so she would just tell Vikram about her inexperience. First she had to change .so she decided to go to the bedroom.When she opened her door she gulped in surprise. If the living room was a surprise then the bedroom was epitome of seduction.

The bed was huge four poster with seductive pure silk red sheets and heart shaped pillows.In the centre of the bed were two swans made from towels who were shaped as a heart. The bed was sprinkled with red rose petals. Infact from the door to the bed the floor was also covered with petals.

When she opened the wardrobe she found only slinky and sexy see through nighties. Infact they were less of nighties and more of lacy scraps of cloth.

Finally she found one knee length satin short nightdress which though backless was the most decent nighty available.

She quickly took a shower wore it and slipped under the red quilt.She knew that she was supposed to wait for her groom but a quick nap would make her fresh and she was was so tired that she fell asleep instantly.

She woke up abruptly . Vikram was still not in the room. She checked her watch and it was already 3 AM . Vikram should have been here long time ago. What had happened ? Her insecurities again appeared in her mind. Was Vikram not happy with this marriage? Had he married her out of compulsion to save his family honour? Had his kiss and gift all been playacting on his part just to convince her to say yes? Was he repenting marrying her already or was he missing Maya ?

All this soul searching and doubts had to be stopped.She was married to Vikram and she had agreed to the marriage. Shnaya was a practical person so she would cope with whatever situation arose in her way.

She decided to wait for him for another hour but when Vikram didn't arrive for another hour she just went to sleep with tears in her eyes.
