Chapter 43

Aadhi and Rishi returned to the villa and saw it was decorated with fairy lights especially the sit out and the pool was also decorated with floating lights. Aadhi looked at Rishi who stood leaning on the wall with his hands in his pocket and watching over her reactions. Aadhi stepped close to him and cocked her brows looking for answers to the decorations. Rishi wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her to his embrace. Aadhi felt his gaze turn on all the cells in her body and averted her gaze from him. Rishi held her chin and raised her head to look at her flushed face.

Rishi: I just wanted our every moment to be very special. Don’t you think we need a lot of memories to cherish from our honeymoon ?

Aadhi: So ?

Rishi: So, we shall get ready perfectly for a perfect dinner night. We shall have food, talk, dance, kiss and .. and …

Aadhi: And ?

Aadhi’s breathe hitched when he leaned closer and pecked the corner of her lips. She curled her toes and held his shirt in her fist. She left an exxagerated breathe when he traced her cheek with his lips.

Rishi: And lets cuddle to sleep.

Rishi moved back and winked at her. Aadhi hit him on his chest and rushed to the room and shut the door but didn’t fail to hear him chuckle. She held her chest that was heaving as if she had completed a marathon. Her face and neck turned pink from the way he was treating her. Aadhi huffed and patted her cheeks to get back to her normal.

Aadhi: He does this everytime, grumpy Rishu.. no no.. lover boy Rishu.

She chuckled and entered the washroom to get ready for their dinner date. Few minutes later she walked out and saw Rishi seated on the bed and a shopping bag beside him. On seeing her he rose to his feet with a smile and passed the bag to her.

Rishi: I bought this outfit for you Aadhu and I hope you will love this. Get changed into this if you like it or something you like and in the meanwhile I will be back quickly after a bath. I have locked the door since the staffs will be arranging the table for our dinner and I want it to be a surprise for you so don’t be scared if you hear noises.

Aadhi bobed her head and watched him enter the washroom. She opened the shopping bag and saw he had bought a beautiful wine red off shoulder gown that would reach her knees and he had taken time to buy matching jewels for it which was a simple platinum chain with a tear drop diamond pendant and studds.

She quickly got changed into it and stood before the mirror. She looked stunning in his choice and to make it even more special to his liking she straightened her hair and left it open just like the way he loved to watch. She opened her makeup kit and saw a small gift box from Rishu which was another surprise for her. She opened it and saw a bracelet cum watch with floral design.

Rishi walked out and saw Aadhi trying to clasp the chain around her neck. Slowly he stood behind her and held the chain in his hands. Aadhi gulped feeling his cold fingers on her nape. Rishi slowly hooked the chain and placed a chaste kiss on her shoulder. Aadhi held her breathe and shut her eyes feeling his cold lips on her bare skin and her chest heaved when a drop of water from his wet hair found peace on her chest.

Rishi gave a gentle pat on her waist before he moved back and cleared his throat breaking the trance. Aadhi opened her eyes and watched Rishi ruffle his hair as if he was trying to hold back himself.

Rishi: You look stunning Aadhu, just like I imagined you in this outfit.

He smiled at her with a wink and picked his outfit to get ready. Aadhi waited in the living room for him and Rishi walked out dressed in a matching wine red shirt and black pant. He had rolled his sleeves and his hair was gelled and she could see the trace that his fingers had raked through them.

Rishi showed his elbow and Aadhi hooked her arm with his as they made their way out. Aadhi saw the staff had gone and the table was beautifully set with casseroles and candles in the middle. The perfect view to the ocean amidst the fairy lights around them made the ambience pleasant to a perfect romantic dinner. Being the gentleman, Rishi pulled the chair for Aadhi before he got seated opposite to her.

Aadhi: You are so so so romantic Rishu. This entire set up is awesome and honestly I m loving every bit of our honeymoon. You have taken extra measure to make sure everything is done the way I love. Thank you so much Rishu and I love you Rishu baby.

Rishi: Wow.. I m happy you are loving everything. The night is still young baby.

He winked at her and opened the casseroles one by one to serve her. He fed her the first morsel from his plate and Aadhi fed him back. The cool air moved her hair gently and she looked ethereal to his eyes. Once they were done with the food part Rishu moved to sit next to her and opened the freezer box and picked the bowl of ice cream. Aadhi squealed and tried to pick it from his hand but Rishi pulled away from her. Aadhi looked at him with a pout. Rishi chuckled  and started feeding her with a spoon.

Rishi: I really wished to feed you with my hands everytime I watched you gulp ice cream.

He traced her lips with the back of the spoon and licked the ice cream he wiped of from the corner of her lips with it. Aadhi smiled and opened her mouth when he tried to feed her but he pulled back and ate it to tease her. Aadhi turned her face away not before glaring at him.

Rishu: Come on baby, I have two more bowls so don’t feel bad that your husband stole just a spoon.

He extended the spoon once again and before he could pull back Aadhi held his arm and ate the ice cream showing a super sign and let out a moan appreciating its taste. Rishi placed the bowl on the table and pulled her closer which shrieked her out. Rishi touched her lips and Aadhi blinked at his intense gaze.

Rishi: You know, I now hate this ice cream Aadhu.

Aadhi blinked at his words unable to decipher his words. Rishi pecked her cheek and moved a strand of hair behind her ear before he pressed his lips on her earlobe and spoke in his husky voice.

Rishi: I wanted to be the only reason you moan baby. I hate this ice cream for doing something that should be done only by me love.

Aadhi curled her toes and clenched her thighs feeling a throb in her most sensitive part. Rishi looked at the way she gulped and her chest heaved in response to his actions.  He turned on the music with the remote that was placed on the table and  out-stretched his hands asking for a dance.

Aadhi placed her palm on his and they moved out of their chair to dance. Rishi held her finger and twirled her before pulling her close to him. Aadhi wrapped her arms around his neck while Rishi wrapped both his arms around her waist holding her close to him. They didn’t dance but their bodies just swayed to the music while their eyes were locked into each other.

Rishi leaned close to her and Aadhi closed her eyes to feel his kiss and just like expected he pecked her eyelids. With a smile she opened her eyes and this continued for a while and he pecked the tip of her nose, cheeks, ear lobe, chin, philtrum and forehead. Aadhi removed her arms from around his neck and held his collars in a tight grip. Rishi knew what was coming and just like she did he closed his eyes awaiting for her move. Aadhi tiptoed and pressed her lips against his lips. He let her lead the kiss and enjoyed the way she was nibbling on to his lips. She tilt her head a little and letting go of his collar she pinched over his chest, a signal to kiss her back. Rishi hoisted her and kissed her back intensely, devouring her mouth.

Rishi moved towards the wall and pressed her against it as they continued with the kiss. He broke the kiss and his lips moved to her jawline and on to her collarbone. He nibbled on her bare skin until he left a hickey. Not less than a minute they entered the bed room and Rishi laid Aadhi on the bed and hovered her continuing to pepper kisses on her chest. Aadhi tilt her head and Rishi gave a gentle bite on her cleavage and a grunt escaped his lips as he inhaled her fragrance that intoxicated his senses. He stopped before he lose his control but Aadhi pushed him and laid above him taking the lead she started kissing him. Rishi groaned feeling her lips on his adam apple and the visible part of his chest since he had the first button open.

Rishi’s wrapped his hand around her and caressed her back gently. His fingers touched the zipper of her gown and played with it. Aadhi bit his chest when he pulled down the zipper of her gown. Rishi grunted and his palm caressed her bare back. Aadhi stopped kissing him and moaned when he traced her back with the tip of his fingers. Aadhi buried her face in the crook of his neck and their chest heaved in unison, their breathes turned hot.  A few minutes later he pulled up the zipper and kissed her shoulder before he shut his eyes and held her in his embrace.

Rishi: Are you ok love ?

Aadhi bobed her head and Rishi smiled caressing her hair a little.

Rishi: Do you want to get changed for the final plan of this night ?

Aadhi once again bobed her head and Rishi turned to his side and laid her next to him. Slowly he moved the hair from her face and his chest heaved in pride on seeing the effect he had on her. Aadhi blushed and quickly jumped out of the bed to get changed. Rishi too got down from the bed and ruffled his hair unable to get out of the intense moment they shared a while ago. He felt too uncomfortable and goaned feeling the tightness in his pant.

They got changed into their night clothes and as per the plan they cuddled to sleep.

At Chennai Manjari was seated on the bed watching the time from the clock on the wall opposite to her. A tear rolled down her cheek when the clock struck 12. She picked her mobile and saw her calls that were unanswered. She opened the message to see if there was any response from Vimal but to her dismay there was none.

Slowly Manjari moved out of the bed and entered the closet. She stood before the mirror and  started removing the earring and other accessories she wore for the dinner night. Finally she discared the beautiful black georgette saree she wore and left it on the floor. She changed into her night dress and returned to bed to sleep which was far away.

Almost two hours later the door creaked open and she closed her eyes pretending to sleep. Vimal entered the closet without disturbing her sleep. He saw the saree and the accessories dropped on the floor. He felt bed and got changed into his track pant and T shirt before he laid on the bed. He saw Manjari whose back was facing him. He moved a little to wrap his arm around her but stopped himself as he felt guilty for not showing up as planned. He decided to convince her in the morning and drifted into sleep since he was too tired after a hectic day of back to back meetings and a sudden visit by a foreign client.
