She smiled and fought back the need to engage with him while in such a public place of the house. “Nakul, let me go. Let’s talk after.”
He tightened his arm around her. “Now. Here. I want to know why you almost gave me a lap dance that day.” He was adamant, and she knew it was time to tell him the real reason.
She lowered her eyes and chewed on her lip. “I—I was in the garden at the Jangid fort and one of my cousin’s friends talked about wanting to be your wife number two and…ummm, I could not let that happen.” She saw the suspicious look on his face. “Because we were in a contract. Not because I wanted to be with you or—”
He kissed away her words. “You are so hot when you are jealous.” His words made her smile against his lips. “I watched the video from my office of you cursing the cheerleaders, so many times.” He groaned, sucking on her lower lip. “But my all-time favorite was the audio of you pretending to come while we were in the Palace Museum.”
His words made the throbbing between her legs harder. “Nakul, take me.” She no longer cared where they were. Her need to be filled by him was far greater than being caught making out with her husband.
With those words, he pushed her back into the wall, bunching her full-length skirt at her hips. Their lips melded while their tongues tangled as she straddled him. His hands squeezed her yearning breast making her let out a cry of pleasure.
He moved quickly and she didn’t want it any other way, pulling her panties away from her, he entered her, hot and hungry. His kisses made her lips sore but that accentuated their engagement and as he pushed deeper, she cried out, her voice muffled against his neck.
On the last drive, she let out a loud cry that she had no way to suppress and when he came right after, she shuddered as she felt his warmth spread inside her. “You are so hot, I’ll never have enough of you.” He kissed her hard before slowly setting her feet down. He adjusted his shorts and pushed her skirt down before leading her to the other side of the room.
She was still in a daze as they stepped into a bathroom that she didn’t know existed. He kissed her gently as she caught her breath. A moment later he reached for a hand towel from the rack and dampened it before going down on his knees before her. She watched as he lifted her skirt to clean her before pulling up her panties that were halfway down her thighs. He planted a kiss on her cover over the fabric barrier before dropping her skirt to the floor.
She smiled at him not knowing what to say. She’d never imagined he would be such a caring lover, especially after how eager and hungry he could be. “I liked what we did.”
He smiled pressing his arousal that was hard already and said, “And I’m up to do anything you want, anytime, anywhere.” His eyes spit fire and they heated her. “And I prefer this to what I have been doing for months.” He pressed his hardness deeper against her. “This bad boy was so hard; I needed to take care of him at least a couple of times a day.”
She blushed, but she also felt bold. She reached up and kissed him. “Then why didn’t you kiss me when I wanted you to? Do all the dirty things I wanted you to do to me.”
He looked at her for a long moment. “I needed to be sure.” He kissed her softly to soften the questioning look and added, “Needed to make sure you weren’t seducing me to get out of the contract.”
She smiled, her cheeks turning red. “What if I did?”
He tightened his hold on her, making her breath hiss. “I can tell when a woman wants me for real.”
She fumed, angry at the reference to his experience with other women, and bit down on his chest. “Does this feel real enough?”
He let out a grunt, his eyes darkening with desire, and that only set off more longing as they shared some more hot moments like they could not get enough of each other.
Chapter 27
Aadhya had fallen into a habit of waking up in her husband's arms every morning, either gasping for air as he would wake her up with a peak or to him being hard and wanting her. Nights and days were spent together as they prepared to perform the ritual at her mother’s birthplace as per tradition.
Nakul spent a lot of time in his office during the day, setting her body aflame between his work, and she only wanted more of him. She had fallen into a new routine for herself. Along with the classes, she started working closely with her aunt’s staff, who took care of the finances for the region. Her aunt was thrilled when she showed interest in helping and learning what her office does to run the operations for their region.
Aadhya was reviewing a plan the manager had sent for repairs in the hospital when Nakul knocked on her door. She had set up her office in her old bedroom and liked the separation, so anticipation could be built to see him after being away for a few hours.
“What a pleasant surprise. Did my husband miss me?” she asked, standing up to walk over to where he stood. Her smile dropped when she saw the expression on his face. “Nakul, what’s wrong?” Her worry shot up, and she hoped everything was okay.
Although she believed in the good that would result from performing the ritual at the Jangid fort, she was aware of the superstitions surrounding the event. Nakul sighed and said, “You have to believe me when I say I was tracking down another lead when I stumbled upon this finding.
She felt her stomach twist in anxiety as she touched his cheek. “Whatever it is, I trust you.”
“For months, we have been trying to find out more about an international businessman named Tantra. There were indications that he had a mole in all the prominent clans, just like he had in the Gujjar clan.”
She was confused and wasn’t sure why he was sharing those details. “What does this person want? And are you saying he also has a contact in the Kanwar clan?”
Nakul shook her head. “Tantra is interested in the oil and has been on a mission to gain control over the region. And I’ve been looking for clues, and nothing led to Tantra, but I came across something else. It’s about your uncle.”
Her eyes widened. “What are you talking about?”
Nakul ran his fingers through his hair. “I will leave it up to you if you want to tell your aunt about this. But your uncle has another wife and children in the neighboring region.”
The room around her started to spin. “What?” Her voice was barely a whisper. She was sure she had misheard what he said.
