"Sh... calm down... you'll be fine... relax", Abhyansh rubbed her shoulders... "Rajput, do you have a hot water bag ??", Abhyansh asked

"No, I'll ask mother... I'm sure she would...", he started but Isha is quick to respond, in fact too quick to respond...

"No...", she wouldn't be taking anything from that woman, especially during this time, it would increase her pain instead...

"I have already asked for it, Bhairav must be on his way... relax...", Abhyansh said and Isha nodded looking at her brother with apologetic eyes...

"Bhai... I'm s...", Isha started but Ranveer shook his head...

"My fault Ishu... I shouldn't have taken her name in front of you, especially during this time... but trust me bacha... she would pay for every crime she committed against you... I won't leave her", Ranveer said stroking her hair... Abhyansh is about to ask but Ranveer signalled him through his eyes not to... Abhyansh blinked in assurance saying he wouldn't ask... no matter how much they disagree or fight with each other, they would work like a unit when it comes to Isha...

"Okay, now let me tell you the story... you remember bhabhosa and bhabho got these tumblers for us ??", Ranveer asked and Isha nodded excitedly, to listen about her parents, but she stayed in her husband's embrace, she knew her embrace could calm him down... Abhyansh held her by her shoulder with his one armwhile his other hand was stroking her hair while she kept her head on his shoulder... Ranveer sat in front of Isha, facing her.

For a second, she felt what if her husband is right and her father did something bad to him ?? What would she do ?? She sure wouldn't forgive her father for giving so much pain to her husband... but the thought disappeared as soon as it came, how can she even think her father could do something to hurt anyone ?? No, there is sure some misunderstanding, she believed strongly...

"You know why they gave us the next morning, when they brought it the previous night ??", Ranveer asked and Isha shook her head... Ranveer chuckled at her cute antics... he slapped her head lightly, Abhyansh glared at him, before slowly stroking the place where Ranveer hit... Isha smiled and showed her tongue to Ranveer. "Real mature Ishu... anyways... that's because... you used to love pink so much, but the sticker designs on the pink tumbler were of Pokémon 'meowth' and 'Jessie & James' ", Isha made a 'Eww' face, Ranveer chuckled whereas Abhyansh is confused...

"Meowth is in the bad team, it's a bad Pokémon, and Jessie & James are bad people, always try to trouble Ash, the protagonist...", Isha said, explaining about Pokémon to her husband who listened to her carefully... Ranveer so wanted to take a video of this moment and send to the world leaders and powerful people, with caption, 'The BEAST - no longer one'.

"You were listening as if you werein plans to shut all your arms companies to open a Pokémon sticker shop",Ranveer sent a text to Abhyansh, who opened it thinking it to be of Bhairav, as he asked him not to call... Abhyansh glared at his stupid brother-in-law who chuckled at him...

"Ha bhai... then how did my favourite Ash and Pikachu come on this...", Isha asked looking at the tumbler in her hand

"Bhabhosa bought all the bottles, and the whole night he was awake, he kept removing all the stickers on the bottles, and cut all your favourite cartoons and stuck it on your tumbler, glass, plate...", Ranveer said and Isha smiled with a few tears slipped... her father really looked after her like a princess... he went extra miles for his children...

Isha looked at her pink tumbler, which still has the stickers of her favourite cartoons, though the paint had faded after all these years...

Abhyansh's phone dinged again and he glared at Ranveer, who shrugged saying he wasn't the one who pinged this time, he looked and seeing Bhairav's message, he got down the bed...

"I'll be back in a minute", he said looking at her frown when he got up... he knew she wanted to stay in his arms...

And after collecting the bag, he came back exactly in a minute as said...

"Okay... I'll go now, bacha, let me know if you need anything, and tomorrow, I'll make your favourite breakfast and feed you myself...", Ranveer said and Isha smiled slightly... Ranveer kissed her forehead and left the room after excusing himself from Abhyansh as well.

Abhyansh locked the door, and returned... he put the water bag for heating, before taking the heating patch and after carefully reading the instructions, gave it to her, before started explaining how to use it...

"No no... heating patch hurts a bit... water bag is much better", she said...

"You have used this before ??", he asked with a frown...

"Yeah, last month, when I was having pain, Reetu suggested this... but It didn't suit me... I have never used hot water bag though...", she said, he made her lie down, and gently placed the water bag on her abdomen... she sighed in relief...

He slowly pulled her t-shirt up, and pyjamas down, his warm fingers lightly caressing her bare skin, her breath hitched, he was having a much harder time as it's been a couple of months, he kissed her... the last time was on the day she left for Rajput Palace... and his ache and desire kept multiplying every day, and one the day he explained her about reproduction, he so badly wanted to make the lesson practical...

'Your wife is in pain, control your animalistic desires', he preached himself...

"Sh... relax... you'll feel better, trust me...", he said, slowly tapping her abdomen with the water bag which relieved her pain to some extent... but his hands that are close to her womanhood caused her a different ache... if only she could understand his ache... then that on innocent movement happened, his hand unintentionally touched above her va**na, a small hiss escaped her mouth, he thought it was of pain until he saw her face which is touched by pleasure... his eyes darkened with desire...

He put the water bag aside and slowly moved his face towards hers... he slowly kissed her forehead, which made her close her eyes in bliss, his warm lips on her skin, made her feel so good, he slowly trailed kisses on her face avoiding her lips irking her... hekissed her cheeks, smooched her face and neck, caressed it with his tongue, fingers but avoided her lips...

"Rana sa...", she called him in protest...

"I know... but no, I can't control myself if I kiss youIsha...and now we can't...", he groaned...

"Huh... ??", she whispered, in confusion, in desire and need as well... and he couldn't control seeing that innocent look and inviting lips, he placed his lips on her, roughly kissing her, all these days of being away is making him act on his desires, surprisingly, it happened with her too... she fisted his hair tightly and pulled him closer... he slowly peppered kisses on her neck and shoulders...

"this feels much better than any heating pad", she muttered in her tone which is filled with her desire and innocence mixed... her words made him pause his actions, and she hid her face in embarrassment...
