OS- ||Discovering The Wild Side ||
His eyes met hers. Damn the woman was a threat to his normal functioning. He couldn't believe he had fallen so hard for the woman in a month's time. She had won his heart the first time she had walked in into the living hall, a so called first meet for an arranged marriage. But , what had actually won his heart was her! The moment she had left the family couldn't stop talking about her. Her gracious smile, her kindness, the way she spoke everything winning hearts of ones around her. And then there was a certain Mr. Oberoi who had blandly rejected the idea of an arranged marriage prior to 10 minutes of the arrival of the guests, changing colors like a chameleon. He clearly remembered how his brothers had to shake him to bring him out of her thoughts once she had left. Not to forget how he was teased to say an over excited "yes the moment he was asked his opinion about the girl. She had blushed slightly he remembered, grinning. Ever since their first meet he hadn't the chance of a private meeting, courtesy to his brothers and family, who loved her company too much to let him have his share of private time with her.
Of course he had spoken to her but every time it was more like a parent-teacher meeting, cordial and formal! He was brought out of his thoughts by a tap on shoulder. It had to be his brothers! He prepared himself for another round of leg-pulling.
"I wasn't seeing her! he stated.
"When did we say that? Chuckled Omkara.
"Iss bolte hain Tinke ki daadi mein chor! giggled Rudra, only to receive disgustedglares from his brothers.
"Its Chor ki daadi mein tinka and not tinke ki daadi mein chor, dumbbell! Omkara hit him ohn his head.
"Exactly! Said Shivaay folding his hands.
"Oh,,,hello, meaning toh samajh aa gaya naa, waise bhi aapki daadi itni badi nahi hai ki tinka mil jaaye usmein!
Shivaay rolled his eyes while Om hid his smile-"Coming back to the point. Ghoorta hi rahega yaan jaake baat bhi karega!
"Kis Se? asked Shivaay pretending he dint know the context.
"O hoo,,,Kis Se! teased Rudra.Dehko toh O, humaare Shariff Singh Oberoi ko!
Om laughed. Bhaabhi se!
"Bhabhi? Who bhaabhi? he asked blinking.
"Ahaa...our Bhaabhi...your hone waali Biwi...! Why you being Shy Singh Oberoi Bhaiya..!
"aye I m not Shy! Thank God they dint know his thoughts.
"Omkara simpered slightly, Rudra and his ways!
"So go talk! Omkara suggested.
Shivaay-"About what? Oh how he would love to spend some time with her, he thought.
Rudra smacked his head-"Your kids!
Omkara threw his head back laughing heartily.
"Shut Up Rudra! shivaay hit his head.
Rudra-"Seriously Bhaiya! Shaadi ke pehle kis ke baare mein baat karte hain?
Shivaay-"What kiss? the words stumbled out of his mouth. A few mnutes before he ahd been thinking about just that. But, wait what was happening.
Omkara and Rudra burst into another round of laughter. "he means Kis as in hindi wala ki...not the Kiss you are thinking off! He explained, in between his laughter.
"Shut up the two of you! exclaimed an embarrassed Shivaay.
Finally normalising his breathing, Rudra spoke-"Joke apart, jaak baat karo...time spend karo...Bhaabhi ke saath. Don't be an old man, Bhaiya!
Omkara-"Hmm...she is looking really pretty in pink today.! He winked secretly at Rudra.
"No! she is wearing black today! Silver Metallic bangles and Jhumkas. And her bracelet intact, the one that she always wears. Shivaay described her dreamily.
The two started laughing again.Guys! Shivaay looked away not able to control his own grin.
"This is a jeegta-jaagta example of IshqBaaaz! Rudra commented.
Shivaay shook his head-"You both are impossible. He started walking away to go downstairs.
"Arey Bhaiya where are you going!
"Baat karne ! came the reply. As he took out his phone to call.
"Kis se? Om pressed the word, intending the pun. While Rudra blew kisses in air. They received a glare in return. Both held on to each other laughing, while he grinned all the way down like a lunatic.

He caressed the materials while his gaze remain fixed on her. She occasionally raised her gaze up meeting his eyes. The two were lost in a world of their own.
Shivaay had no control over his thoughts when he was around her specially. They were to be married in weeks and hadn't even had the chance of getting to know each other properly. But, their eyes spoke all that what their lips perhaps could never speak.
If by gazing one could be married, they had married a thousand times!
She shifted her gaze to her to be mother in law registering what she was saying, knowing very well that his gaze was still on her.
He had kissed her with his eyes a million times, while his lips remain parched, excluded from the privilege. He had seen her in ways he had never felt the need to see any women so far. She was a virus to his system, corrupting all files. He wondered how she would react if she knew his thoughts. She was his perfect match, she loved his family as much as he did, and also respected them and his decisions. At many instances in the past few days he had secretly tested her and she had not only passed all his test but also made him fall a little more for him every time!
But, there was something missing. The wildness! She was all too soft and balanced, he felt. Wondering if she was his "takkar ki ishqbaaz as daadi said.
She was simply nodding at what the older lady was telling about fashion and trend. Her thoughts were at him. She could practically think about nothing else when he was around. She had fallen for him so hard! Every time she witnessed his caring and loving side to his brothers and family, she wondered how it would be to have it for her as well. The small things about him had won a large part of her. A true gentle man like her friends called him!
But, still something was missing. The wildness, the thrill. She couldn't be with a boring man all her life, no she simply couldn't. She had wanted to run away after their second small conversation, he had spoken about cars, walls and stocks! She had simply quietly nodded smiling giving him time to open up, but boy he was a Shy Singh Oberoi. She was waiting all the while for him to talk about something nice, like a fianc would, maybe a little bit of romance was what she was looking for, perhaps!
"Shivaay, you tell! Pinky's voice brought him out of his trance.
"Which one looks better on her? she asked his son, placing the saree on Anika.
"Beautiful. I mean both look beautiful! He smiled covering up.
She smiled picking up what Pinky missed. Such a Shy Man! He couldn't even compliment her straight. Why did this man have to be so boring! But whatever he was such a wonderful person that not a chance she would leave to be married to him.
"Why don't you both go for a walk? The attire has been decided, and there is time until the Pooja, so go have a small walk. But be back before time! Both stared at Pinky. Finally! some private time together. Shivaay took a deep breath hoping he could keep his hands off her, he had no mood to put off his to be wife, and not at all would he want her to think he was some kind of jerk.
She hoped he wouldn't talk of boring things again, she dint want to get mad at him and make herself sound like a mad irritable woman.
As they walked around to the rear exit of the mansion( which he had preferred to avoid anyone that would be hindrance to their private time) she expressed her awe for the big mansion.
He only admired her why she was busy admiring his home. Oh how he wished he was the centre of her attention and not his billion dollar home!
He pushed her slightly to the wall, leaning over her. She looked at him startled. I ve been wanting to tell you,...You are the most beautiful woman I have ever met! She blushed. He ran his hands up her arms to her chin. Their eyes danced to and fro between the eyes and lips. He bent down and captured her lips in kiss, while his hands moved to her waist. He had been wanting to hold her waist for ever. He pulled her closer, his hands now moving up and down her back. She moaned in the kiss. He deepened the kiss his hands now moving her abdomen
"Shivaay!
"Ahh!
"Shivaay! she snapped before him.
"Huh? he asked blinking, looking at her. He had been imagining! He gulped.
"Lost somewhere? she asked him baffled.
"In You! he whispered aside, nodding in a no.
She knitted his brows giving a side smile, as they continued to walk. He walked behind her slapping his head. "Think straight Shivaay! She won't let me but!
As they walked down the garden she stole glances at him. He was relatively silent. Though glad that he wasn't talking about stocks and other unimportant things, she wanted him to speak. He was lost in his thoughts she could tell. Had he ever went out of the way to do anything in life?! Oh, what a boring husband she was going to have! If only she knew how wrong she would be proved in future.
She looked at him closely thanks to the fact that he was lost. Her eyes ran from his beautiful kanji eyes to his perfect stubble. She wondered how it would be to caress it? She tripped on a rock and he held her waist immediately as a reflex. She blinked at him. How fast was he? If only he was fast at other things as well! "Penny to your thoughts Anika! She cursed herself mentally. Oh, but how was she supposed to think straight when his strong male arms gripped on to her waist. She fantasied his hands doing things to her. Oh if he only had a wild side! Oh crap what has she been thinking! She quickly freed herself of his hold, she was tempted to give him a peck on his cheek, and would be highly embarrassed if she ended up doing it!
Timing! Just when he thought he was going to lose all his control, she had slipped away. He din't know whether he was happy or sad, fortunate or unfortunate. He looked deeply into her eyes. She grew irresistible by the second. She gazed into his deep blue eyes, damn was she overthinking or was he really looking at her the way she thought he was. She jumped out of her thoughts when she heard Pinky's voice calling them in. He forwarded his hand making way for her. She smiled dreamily. He was perfect.

"Don't you talk much? she finally broke the silence.
Shakti had asked Shivaay to drop Anika home. His parents were unknowingly being so generous to him. The few minutes were silent but Anika couldn't take the silence anymore.
"I do talk. But I m more a man of actions! He replied sparing her a quick glance.
"Action.my foot.! She said murmured.
"You said something?
"Nothing! she smiled.
He gripped the steering wheel harder, action was what never happened in real, only in his thoughts! He wanted to take it slow, she was too innocent he felt. She found herself stuck in the slowest train ever. He was slow and so was his driving. If she knew he dint want the journey to end so fast.
"Good night! he waved.
She gave a sugar-coated smile and returned the wish. She glared as soon as she turned and started muttering to herself. "Hi, Bye! Hi ye. Oh God...Why is he so shy!
***
"What the hell are you doing here at this hour! she asked startled.
"I climbed up the pipe to say a good night! he exclaimed in sarcasm.
"You could use the door. It's your house.
"Oh, yes and the mad crowd out there would have asked me a million questions, 'Why are you going to her room at this hour?' ; Shivaay you cant see her until the wedding!'; and what do you expect me to tell them, Oh I was going to kiss my wife goodnight!
Her eyes widened, he came there to kiss her. As though reading her thoughts, Yes, I came to kiss my wife he said pulling her closer by the waist.
"To be wife- she corrected him giggling as he rubbed his stubble against her cheek.
"We will be married tomorrow! he said adoringly.
"I know she said placing her forehead against his.
"Seems forever!
She chuckled.
"You came to remind me?
"Ahh..no.. I came to kiss you, someone feels I m not wild enough he said nibbling her ear.
"Shivaay! she gasped.
"Why you were expecting something else!?
She blushed, dragging his name.
"tell me tell me.. he teased her.
"Shoo...away Mr. Oberoi...I will tell Daadi that you intruded otherwise.
"Really!? he exclaimed rather amused.
"Soch lo Anika, tomorrow you will be my wife and I d have all rights on you! He dragged her against the wall. It's better for you to be in my favour. He said dragging her hands up against the wall and nuzzling into the crook of her neck. She moaned her fingers digging into the back of his palms. He opened his eyes looking at her.
Unable to take his intense gaze her eyes immediately fluttered moving downwards and involuntarily rested on his lips. Cursing herself she moved her eyes back upwards, and her cheeks heated as she felt his gaze. His gaze burned her, her breathing turned uneven. He looked into her eyes smirking at her and took a step closer. While her gaze was locked with his, his hands took the opportunity. They slowly made their way to her waist.
She din't know where to focus, on his moving hands, on those eyes that were boring into hers or his parted lips. She was in a puddle of weird feelings. The tingling sought of feeling in her stomach made it all the more difficult for her to think straight. He grinned slightly seeing "his effect" on her. Taking advantage he pulled her closer his eyes looked at her with a glint of raw desire. She stiffened as he pulled her closer to him. He took his lips closer to hers. She closed her eyes, his hands moving about her. The man was wild in his ways, she had learned that a bit late. That wildness she had discovered in him, driving her more crazy for him.
She shot open her eyes not feeling his lips on hers. He kept staring at her. In one go she encircled her arms around him, causing her body to collide with his. She kissed him pouring in her love. His hands circled around her letting her have her way. The woman was like a wild fire, she felt hot against his mouth. He was willing to burn in her flames forever. There she was kissing him insane. Oh how wrong had he been in calling her tamed ! She was wild, like the wind. He broke apart boring his gaze into her. Her lips fuller than before. She looked down. He tipped her chin up, you don't have to be shy Mrs.to-Be-Oberoi. She blushed smiling, slipping her hand into his. Their hands playing.
"Anika! he whispered, his voice dripping with desire.
She hugged him immediately, their hearts thudding madly.
Until tomorrow Shivaay! she whispered, moving away.
His jaw clenched, and he held her right elbow by his right hand and jerked her closer to himself not wanting her to move away. She hitched in a sharp breath, so did he.
"You will always be mine! he declared. She stared at him for a few moments. The raw untamed fire she saw in eyes sent shivers up her spine. But, her wild side called out to his wildness. She had fallen too hard for the man. He lowered his head so that their eyes were inches apart and gazed at her more closely and thoughtfully.
"I Love You, Anika! he finally confessed.
"I know! Her lips curved up into a smile.
He frowned, I was expecting...ahh...
She pecked his lips, "I love you too!?!
He bent down wanting to press his lips against hers, she moved back.Good night she waved stepping still away controlling her laughter.
"anika!
"Ahaan! Go get some sleep, the wedding is tomorrow! she asserted excitedly.
"You get some good sleep to he blew a kiss and winked. I think I will use the door.
She laughed, he turned, her laughter was the most beautiful thing ever.
"What? she asked finding him smiling at her from the door.
"I love you little too much. Take care!
"I love you too!
#The end.
