Aarav's P.O.V~
It's been days since that stirring night. And since then we had been restless arranging for my cousin's wedding. Every ritual and day divided me and Aadhya apart, allowing us no chance to talk adequately.
Her temperament and mine towards each other have altered in two contrasting forms. She's turned more informal, and I've grown more infatuated with her.
Throughout the customs, I sought to find ways to speak to her, but all she did was persuade my words off.
I wished to talk about Prashant that day but ended up soliciting another reason. He continued growing adjacent to her with each day passing by. Which was bugging me more with each day.
But I stood afar, regarding her. I observed her laughing and chit-chatting with others as she avoided me.
Not only days, but the nights also grew unpleasant for me. I coveted her touch; I craved more.
I recited that night more than hundreds of times in my head, imagining her performing those things all over again. I touched myself, struggling to feel what she gave me, and failed every time.
Nothing is the same anymore. My hate for her has deviated into something I can't name, and I require her to feel the same for me. But she doesn't, and it burns my heart.
Giving her behavior and her nature a review. There's no way she admires me the same way I admire her.
Just like right now. We're returning to my palace. Now that the wedding has successfully taken place, we have to return to our duties.
The wedding was a marvelous day for all of us, which brought substantial correlations, love, and a life partner for my cousin.
I recall what he said when we were leaving for the palace. "try to keep your fiancΓ© as happy as possible. A happy woman leads to a happy marriage and a great kingdom." I don't assume we have that kind of relationship.
She's peering outside the carriage, relishing the mustard fields as I glare at her face.
She looks so beautiful as the sunlight pours warmth onto her face through a vacant window. She takes my breath away every time I see a smile on her face.
She's making me feel so foreign. Not solely I'm a different one here. She has also varied.
At first, I assumed she was behaving peculiarly because of her head injury. But now I suspect her. Who she is?
Why has she not been afflicted the way I am? Does she despise me that much? It aches my heart.
"Why are you staring at me like that?" I blanked out. Absorbed by my thoughts, I kept my eyes on her. "Hmm?" She asks again, completely jolting me back to reality.
"I wished to talk to you about something, but couldn't." Determination. I have to gather a lot of it to discuss that night.
"What about?" She talks with modesty, mildly looking at me. "A-about that night." Although I wished to talk about Prashant I again end up asking about something utterly nonsense.
But I still expected her to be astonished or bewildered, but she's nothing at all. She's as composed as a lifeless creature. Like that night left no effect on her, making my thoughts right about her.
"Do you remember what happened that night?" I continue asking about the most troublesome topic. I want to tell her to stay away from him. I assume I'll have to introduce Prashant somewhere amid the conversation.
Aadhya's P.O.V~
I've been noticing a difference in him. His eyes on me and his manner toward me are unusual. But why? He acts gentle and warm. Almost as if he cares about me.
He's been glaring at me from the moment we stepped into the carriage. Generating an atmosphere of my disliking. So I choose to shatter the silence.
"Do I remember that?" He mentions that night inquiring if I recall it, which makes me snicker. Why is he asking such a question when he knows we were sober that night?
He sits right in front of me, his powerful posture troubled for the first time. He can't associate with my eyes for more than a few seconds.
Does he wish to do it again? It can't be anything else. I never understood that the mighty prince right in front of me can like such degrading sex. Not that I degraded him that day. Otherwise. I would've scared the old century boy.
"What? Do you miss that night?" Smirking with my tone, I lift my leg to insert between his legs on the wooden seat as I watch him flutter to his knees. He was not at all prepared for it.
He's wearing royal attire, dressed from his head to the toe in gold color. He looks so masculine and handsome in it. But he'd look better without it.
Now that I have had his taste, I wish to taste him again and again. He peers blankly at me in shock until I waver his eyes. Dragging my feet, I land it against his bulge, watching him go powerless as I rub it gently.
