"You're right", she said, sounding contemplative, "Maybe I should grow up and be more practical."

"Well...you know 'Princes on white horses' are 'fairy'-tales right?" Abhi said, air-quoting again. He was feeling relieved now that she was seeing some logic.

"Yeah...but...I sooo wanted it! A guy who could brave the most terrible storms to rescue me, the sparks fly when we touched each other, the fastening of heart beats when we..."

"Geez Siya! I get the point. I never guessed you lived in fantasy land! So in short I am exactly opposite to what you want?", his voice dripping of offence and frustration.

Siya laughed. How like Abhi to get offended by some hypothetical guy who she hypothetically thought was better than Abhi.

"No not exactly! But you are my friend Abhi, there's no spark!", she added with a hand gesture. Seeing him getting seriously irked, she smiled to herself.

"Oh God! Siya-"

"I know it is childish Abhi...", she took a short decisive pause, "and...that's why...I am ready to do this", she finished, her grin widening.

"To do what?" Abhi asked, thoroughly bemused by the variety of expressions Siya was giving.

"To marry you."

***

They transitioned from being partners-in-crime to business partners.

There was no way I was going to share the same room as him after what he just did. I released a breath which I held in for god knows how long. Making a move to stand up from the bed, I was walking towards the couch only to jerk back on the bed from his strong pull. His hands were gripping on my wrists making me wince in pain. I tried to get out of his hold but couldn't, he was way too strong for me. Leaning closer to me I tried to move back only to fall on the bed. Seeing my state he took advantage of me by hovering over me, locking my small frame between his hands. An evil smirk played on his lips making me stiffen in fear. His eyes travelled down my body, intentionally I flinched. "Today's our wedding night Jaanvi." Came his husky voice before he nuzzled his face in my neck again. "I'm your husband."

"Mr Mehra you are in no position to interfere in my matters. I could have handled the situation by myself without you getting involved in it. I am confident in my capabilities and I can protect myself without anyone's help. I might be living in your house but it doesn't mean that you have any kind of power over me and you should know that it was never something I ever wanted." I said to the person who was standing in front of me in all his glory. "Mahi even though living in my house was not something you wanted but as now you are, you are my responsibility and I never fail to fulfil any. I absolutely believe in your capabilities but let me make one thing very clear, don't expect me to keep calm when someone is trying to lay a finger on what is mine."

She entered the room, and the next moment she was thrown on the bed and he hovered over her pinning her both hands above her head. "What... are you doing?" she stammered, her voice shaking as she looked at him. His messy hair and red eyes radiated anger. "Why did you let him fucking touch you?" he growled, his gaze locked onto hers, demanding an answer. "He just... held my hand," she replied quickly, trying to suppress his anger. "He didn't just fucking hold your hand; he touched you for fucking 35 seconds!" he shouted, his voice echoing with disappointment. For a moment, she feared that she had lost him, that he would never trust her again and leave her, just like her family had. Next second his rough lips captured her soft lips in a kiss, with each deep suck on her lips he erased her insecurities devouring her mouth like graveman.
