"Are they are closed?"

"They are closed tight."

Amma hesitantly swims towards the man and shakes her hand in front of his face. King Xerxes feels her presence as wet droplets splash onto his naked chest. Swiftly, he seizes her wrist and holds it.

She gasps.

He slowly opens his eyes to inspect her face. His eyes move from her coffee colored eyes to her thick eyebrows and thin broad nose.

Seeing the rarity of her visage tempts his mind.

Curiosity strikes him as he strokes her full lips with his wet thumb; he licks his lips hungrily as he feels the fleshy portion of her opening...he yearns for its taste.

"Please" she begs in a whisper and gently pulls away.

Will Sarika ever be able to fulfill her dreams? Can love blossom between Adrijay and Sarika? To find out, read "Falling for My Wife."
