"Men should know cooking... your father never agreed to it, so he never learned it but thankfully other men in the family are not like that, I want you to be like them", she said and instantly regretted what she said...

Isha entered her room and saw her husband's laptop on the bed, she frowned, she expected him to be in the study, what is he doing in the chamber so early, she wondered, when she heard a sound from the kitchen, she went inside thinking the servants must be cleaning the kitchen...
"Don't do it now, tomorrow...", Isha's words stuck in her throat seeing the scenario... her husband, the great king ABHYANSH SINGH RANWAT is cooking...
"RANA SA...", Isha said walking inside their newly built kitchen...
"Good, you are here... I'm almost done, have it", he said making the dessert... he already made some vegetable rice, raita, and a traditional curry to go with the rice... "your idea of having a kitchen in our chamber is actually very good, I can cook for you without anyone's notice", he said winking at her...
She hugged him from behind tightly kissing his shoulder and back, he held her palms pulling her to his front, and hugging her with one arm while cooking with the other arm...
"Why didn't you tell me you know cooking??", she asked
"You never asked, also I'm not a master like you, just a few dishes, that's all, also it's been decades since I have made something, none knows except for Rajmata and now, you...", Abhyansh said pecking her nose... she is still stunned about the fact and that perplexed look on her really made him adore her more...
"Thank you... andI love you...", she said kissing him, pulling him down through his hair... his height is hard to reach even with her 5'9". She broke the kiss just when he is about to deepen the kiss.
"Rani sa...", he groaned... "just wait till I finish this", he said
"For now, concentrate on what you are doing", she said with a laugh... he is about to add milk to the dessert when she stopped him...
"Rana sa... isme doodh nahi daalte(you shouldn't put milk in this)", she said
"Go and sit out, today I'll serve my queen...", he said kissing her forehead... she nodded and walked away still in daze... sweet-talking is so not her husband' and when he does that, she really feels strange... but this act of his stole her heart, she never thought he could be this sweet, he observed she didn't eat properly, so he cooked for her...
He started bringing the dishes to their dining hall in the chamber when she stood up to help him, he ordered to sit down not allowing her to do anything. He served her and she ate everything in delight.
"Rana sa... these are delicious... you cook so well...", she said stuffing her mouth, he smiled...
"Not as well as you, you are the best cook", he said genuinely, his wife cooks very well, anyone could be addicted to her cooking thought he, she smiled shaking her head saying he is the best.
"Now have this", he said forwarding the dessert but she is skeptical...
"Did you add milk in this??", she asked
"Try it and then talk", he said confidently, she nodded and ate it but the taste surprised her...
"This is so good and tasted so different from how I usually make it", she said
"This one, my grandfather and I experimented together, and the result is in front of you, from now on, you can do this as well", he said, she hugged him holding him tightly... today he seemed to be so much closer to a normal husband... she got a step or maybemany steps closer to him in that one day... sometimes, just a few hours or minutes make a lot of difference.
"Hm... have some...", she forwarded some to him with a fresh spoon but he took her spoon and had it surprising her... "you act so different today from usual self...", she said leaning on his chest...
"Am I??", he asked and she nodded, he kissed her head... "did you like it or did you not??", he asked again...
"I loved it... be like this always, when we are alone...", she said and he nodded... he wanted to do that a lot of times, but before they got to that step, some or other things happened and he ended up hurting her... not only her, he too liked how she is a bit carefree with him today, he cherished every moment of it, he kept replaying how she handed him her medicine cover to him so casually...
"I loved it too, when you see me as just Abhyansh, not Rana sa...", he said and she smiled...
"Abhyansh?? No...ANSH...", she said and that's the last string for him... he pulled her to his lap and kissed her, chewing her lips and she moaned 'Ansh' and it only brought the BEAST out of him more... he carried her to the bed and started kissing her neck...
-------------------
"You mean, dada sa know it?? And bhai sa too??", Avyan asked and she nodded shocking Avyan... his arrogant, rude, chauvinistic, and BEAST of a brother knows how to cook?? That's shocking, what would happen to his Bhabhi sa if she getsto know this shocking truth, thought Avyan chuckling to himself imagining Isha's reaction...
"It's your grandfather who gave me this recipe", Devyani said further surprising him...
