The Wait - Precap for Chapter 9

KHUSHI SINGH RAIZADA

I stare at myself blankly in the mirror reflection. The Sindoor on my forehead, the veil covering my head, the Mangalsutra shining around my neck and the bridal lehnga which I’ve still adorned on my body are screaming at me to accept the reality and bury the remains of my past with Dhruv so deep in some corner of my lonely heart where even I cannot reach again even if I want to. Arnav is my lawfully wedded husband and I’ve vowed to be his dutiful wife in every sense.

I shut my eyes to erase every other thought and just focus on the present.. my reality.. that I am Arnav Singh Raizada’s wife and no matter what my past was, I would not drag its shadow in my future. When I open my eyes again and look in the mirror, my heart skips a beat seeing Arnav in the room already. He is leaning against the door frame, in his maroon sherwani with his arms crossed on his chest. This is it.. The beginning of a new phase in my life, the end of the previous chapter. Will I be able to handle such a drastic change? Will I ever give Arnav what he truly deserves from his wife? From me? Will I be able to keep the promise I gave him? With all these thoughts clouding in my head I fail to realize when Arnav reaches behind me and stands close. It is only when his breath fans my nape, I’m on a high alert. Our eyes meet in the mirror reflection.. His gaze steady on my face, as if reading the commotion of my heart. To avoid showing off my turmoil, I start taking off my earrings.

“These .. these are too heavy on my ears.” I break the silence between us, pulling hard the earring, but to no luck. In fact the hurry in trying to take them out makes me hurt my ear and I wince in pain. The moment I decide to be gentle on myself, Arnav holds the earring in place while gently taking off its screw.

“Don’t be so hard on yourself, Mrs. Khushi Singh Raizada,” he whispers leaning far closer to my face than before. “You are mine..” He adds, taking off one earring and then shifting his fingers over the other to take it off. “That’s enough for me to live with until you are ready to share yourself with me.”

I know to make money, a hell lot of it, and that’s what has made me the man I am today. But a tenacious woman named Alisha Sethi, owning a prime property that I wanted in Mumbai’s hottest real estate sector, stood in my way. Though I kept women at bay, there was something in her I couldn’t ignore. Alisha’s one condition smashed down the barricades of my heart, and despite all the hot and cold conflicts, she turned into an obsession I couldn’t get over. No matter how far she planned to test me, lest did she know when I was dared, no one but me won the challenge.

I firmly believed my prince charming was just a dream away. But all I got was a pompous and demanding as hell real-estate billionaire, Armaan RaiSinghania, who was continually hounding me to negotiate a deal with him for his next project. I’d sworn never to give up fighting for what I believed in, and yet, one night, one earth-shattering moment changed it all. I’d waited for a romantic lover and got a fiery inferno instead. Armaan might live in the illusion of winning me over, but lest did he know the game had just gotten interesting.
