"Rana sa... calm down first, she is not any outsider, she is my mother's sister, I would feel very happy if she wore this saree that I designed for my ma", Isha said but Abhyansh didn't budge...
"You are not giving this to her... That's all", he said and took away the saree from the plate before calling for a maid loudly, who ran towards the study... he ordered her to bring the most expensive saree in their collection of clothes that were stocked to gift the guests and she is back within minutes with the saree. He dismissed the maid, and put the saree in the plate, Isha arranged them neatly, by looking at her husband, she knew there must be some reason for what he was doing and she decided to oblige for now.
The couple walked towards the main hall, Nandini, her husband and her son stood up seeing Abhyansh and Isha walking towards them...
"We'll take your leave Maharaj", Isha's uncle said and Abhyansh gave a polite nod, Anuj too greeted him, and he gave a curt nod making Isha mentally roll her eyes at his jealousy. She didn't understand her husband's jealousy earlier but these days, she is getting it a bit by bit.
"Maharaj... Thank you for taking care of our Ishu... We'll be forever indebted to you", Nandini said, Isha, Ranveer and Amruta now knew Abhyansh would blast at her. Isha wanted to control him but she couldn't hold his palm or his shoulders in front of everyone so she resisted, mentally praying to her favorite god Maa Durga to save her maasi from her husband's wrath...
"She is my queen, MY WIFE, MINE more than anyone's, you are no one to thank me Nandini RANA...", Abhyansh said in his cold tone that sent shivers to the lady and everyone else too...
"Rana sa...", Isha called, but suddenly her brain stopped at the surname 'Rana'.
'Rana' is her mother and maasi's maiden name, since she was married, Abhyansh should have called her 'Mrs. Chauhan', but he called her a 'Rana', that too there is some kind of familiarity in his tone with the way he called her maasi. Abhyansh already understood that his wife's brain started working now, and he cursed his anger for it.
"How do you know my mother's maiden name Rana sa ??", Isha asked, but before he could answer Ranveer did, as he very well knew he wouldn't lie and neither would he utter the truth.
"Ishu... Stupid, this is why I ask you to eat Almonds regularly... why do you think your husband wouldn't know about his mother-in-law's maiden name huh ??", Ranveer answered slightly hitting her forehead which she rubbed slightly, glaring at her brother... Even if he knows it, he doesn't have to address her like that right ?? Isha thought but didn't voice her thoughts... she turned to her aunt whose face was pale hearing her husband... Isha cursed herself for bringing her husband down... and now he was very courteous to her family, note the sarcasm...
"Maasi...", Isha hugged her and whispered 'sorry' in her ears, to which Nandini hugged her tightly ruffling her hair, later Isha hugged her uncle and gave a smile to Anuj as she knew her husband would kill Anuj with just a shot, if she hugs him... Abhyansh mentally lauded his smart wife. But, if he thinks this is over then he is in for a big surprise.
Isha asked her mother-in-law to gift the saree and jewelry to her aunt but Amruta asked her to do it as its the queen's right, Ishafor now gave it but mentally decided to change a lot of things from now on. Her aunt accepted it as she knew it was a tradition.
Amruta greeted them politely and the Chauhans left from there with Ranveer.
"Ma, let's start the dinner preparations... it's getting late", Isha said and walked towards the kitchen without glancing at her husband, who sighed in distress, he knew his wife is angry, but he lost it when that lady thanked him for taking care of HIS wife, as if he is an outsider and she is her(Isha's) family. His wife belonged to him, to him alone. He is possessive, undyingly possessive, so much that his possessiveness can cause dying pain to others who try to claim his wife as their family.
That night, after dinner, Isha finished her work and moved to her chamber. She saw her husband sitting on their bed and sulking, she ignored him as she could not deal with his mood swings right now, she walked to their closet, got changed and sat on her bed. She expected him to persuade her but he was sulking waiting for her to come and persuade him.
Really ! she thought but nonetheless looked at him waiting for him to say something and he did.
"Why are everything in dinner according to Avyan ?? I know you are upset with me but that doesn't mean you do this to me", he sulked and she sighed
"They are definitely Avyan's favorites but it's not like you don't eat them right ?? And I didn't make them because I'm upset with you, but because Avyan was in office working hard even on a sunday, so I want him to have a relaxed meal at night", she said but he raised his brow making her sigh... He knew her too well... "Okay... it was one of the reasons, but there's no need for you to sulk like this, you eat them all", she defended herself
"But they are not my favorite", Abhyansh argued, Isha glared at him...
"And why would I prepare your favorite meal ?? To appreciate how nicely you shouted at my aunt ??", Isha said sarcastically, damn her sarcasm, she looked so hot with sarcasm dripping her mouth, so much that he just wants to ravish her and he did just that...
"You tire me so much Ansh", Isha said after their intense make out in her hoarse tone as all the screaming did that to her tone...
"Is that a complaint or compliment Mrs. Ansh ??", Abhyansh asked, his lips hovering hers...
"bo.. com...compliment...", she said, Abhyansh smirked at her answer... She wanted to say both but she wanted him to kiss her, so she changed her answer not to upset him, but his innocent wife didn't know that he wouldn't be upset with her complaints, it would boost his ego instead...
He kissed her gently as he knew his inner beast would be unleashed if he kisses her deeply and that would tire his wife more, she may even pass out as he already took her thrice that night and continuously.
"I'm not sorry for what I told your aunt, I didn't like her words", he said and she sighed knowing his possessiveness... she snuggled into his arms rubbing his back slowly calming him...
"I know, but you could have been a bit softer, she is my maasi Rana sa...", Isha said
"And that's the reason I went soft on her", he said and Isha looked at him in disbelief...
"That was soft??", she asked opening her mouth like a fish, he chuckled, pecking her lips...
"It was... according to me", he said and she rolled her eyes...
She knew her husband, she felt he would have gone soft on her considering she is her Aunt but his tone and his behavior towards Nandini made Isha doubt if her husband had some hard feelings for her.
