Chapter 13 | Carnal fascination

I'm the beast not a prince of your dreams

But in my darkness, your love is the glema

That pierced through shadows

and tames my wild heart

I was sleeping peacefully, a smile formed on my face when I sniffed a familiar fragrance linger around me, I don't know whose fragrance is this but it creates warmth in my heart and I'm loving this feeling. I snuggled more into this as I thought it was my pogo but didn't feel soft fluffy plushie. I'm still in sleep but the furrow appeared on my face, if it is not pogo then what is this, I opened my eyes and saw that it was a coat. Whose coat is this. Shit ye tho Mr Randhawa ka hai. OMG what did i do yesterday.

I don't think I did anything wrong. I shrugged that thought and thought about this amazing morning, this is so peaceful for me, today I did not wake up like every night. I know that the fear inside me has gradually subsided a little but that terrible past still scares me. Who snatched my peace of every night But last night I didn't wake up in the middle. and I didn't even flinch a little.

I don't know why but I felt like someone had created a protective layer in front of me. And my heart felt that warmth very well. He felt peace after a long time.

Thinking about this brought a small smile on my face.I caressed this coat gently and said with a smile.

"Is this warmth because of you and is it just my illusion? But anyway, I slept well."

I don't know why I feel like keeping it close to me. This fragrance is creating a different spark in my body and heart. I smelled it one more time. Fuck it intoxicating.

Only this redolence, creates a desire to have him. I wonder how it will feel when my body smells like his? How will it feel when my body collides with his body and makes it feel like one. How will it feel when his soft lips kiss my entire body? Shit I hurriedly opened my eyes, and felt wetness between my thighs, oh fuck what am i thinking? "I'm lusting over Mr Randhawa. This can't be true. This is a completely new thing for me, till date I have never felt this for anyone, nor have I ever thought about any men like this.

There is something in him that is making my body react like this. If someone had told me this thing about Mr Randhawa before today, I would have thought that he is the one who has his eyes on all the women and this type of thought for him, not possible even in my life but now, Like his behaviour, how he behaves with me, how sweet he is, my perspective has changed a little towards him. I giggled at my statement. But I never thought I'd have these wild thoughts about him. Just forget it already Ashika.

Just his smell is making me so wet, oh God, save me from all these things. I murmured and went to do my morning routine, I saw my plushie is in the dustbin how? As long as I can remember, it has been lying on my bed. " Hyy pogo you are lying here, who threw you here?"

I picked her up and placed her on the bed and went to freshen up.

While going to the kitchen, I was hoping that Trisha was not there, otherwise I was gone. But I know my luck never supports me. She is here making breakfast. "Hyy bhagwan kya hi dusmani hai aapko mere se kabhi tho sath dediya karo."

"Kaha chale madam." She called from behind while I was slowly trying to get out of the situation.

"Nowhere, I was just coming down." I smiled nervously.

"Come eat." She said calmly, like seriously I'm just processing her words she's not gonna scream or shout. As far as I know till now, she had to shout and gather all the neighbors outside our house.

"why are you so quiet. won't you ask anything". She still has not said anything. " Trishu baby what happened, tumhare andar Aaj koi mata nahi aayi. Chila ku nahi rahi." I said while trying to suppress my smile. She is looking adorable when she tries not talking to me.

"Ab bol bhi do." Here now starts the drama of miss drama queen.

"YAA HOW CAN YOU DO THIS TO ME. WHY DID YOU LEAVE ME ALL ALONE. She screamed her lungs out.

"Just chill take a deep breath 1st like this. In and out count 1 2 12." I said while instructing her but she is glaring at me.

"Okk just stop looking at me like this. I'll tell you. Let's take a sit first."

"I know where you were and with whom you were. Because he had brought you home that too in his arms." She said with her mischievous smirk. "Oh ho someone is blushing."

"Idiot, I'm not blushing. And it's nothing like that, I must have fallen asleep in his car and he didn't want to wake me up."

"Then why are you smiling like an idiot while talking about him? Tell me." She said while showing her teeth. Ise sirf moka chahiye.

" Shut the fuck up."

"Leave it, tell me what you were doing with that Khadus, and you just messaged me and said I am leaving. You didn't even tell me with whom you are going and why you are going. I'm angry with you." She said while pouting with her fake angry face.

"Stop making that face because you are looking like a pig. And sorry baby. Ab smile karo."

She glared at me but last showed me her smile. She is cute tho.

"Par jo bhi ho I don't like him at all. Do you know what he did yesterday?" She's fuming in anger, her angry bird mode on. Pakka kuch tho bola hoga Mr Randhawa ne.

"What happened? Lady iron women why are you fuming in anger."

"He is too much, he comes home while carrying you in his arm with his world class chumu si sakal ke saath, literally will he ever smile or not." When she said about his smile. A thin line curved on my face while remembering his face well his smile is rare but I saw him smiling, his smile is beautiful like a shining star in the sky.

"Where are you lost? Are you listening to me." I just hummed and she continued her story. "Then he asked me. Where Is HeR RoOm?" Or he also threatened me just because I called you gadhi, he said DoNt yOu dAre You tO cAll heR GadHi AgaIn. Like seriously man I'm her best friend, I can tell whatever I want." She said with an angry face while making expressions like him. Oh God it it's hilarious

" You called me gadhi." I asked while glaring at her. "Hehe just slipped off tongue nothing else." She nervously said.

"But still he can't order me around I'm not his employee I'm his contract partner He always forgets those things." She faked cried.

"Wait a second Are you angry because he forbade you from calling me a gadhi or are you just venting out your office anger here?"

"Just, flow flow me nikal gayi yaha waha. But tu waha kyu dhyan de rahi hai. Meri baat nahi suna na." Oh God she is over dramatic.

"Ok sorry boo, because of me you had to endure all this." I make a baby face in order to melt her.

"Ok I'm good now, Tell me where you were two?" She asked with excitement. Just now she was angry and now she became excited. I don't know how quickly her mood changes.

"He just asked me out for dinner with him because I treated him."

"Bas itna hi, I thought he asked you about a romantic date. Stupid davil." She said with an annoyed expression.

"Idiot, why would he ask me for a date."

"Just like that, because the way he stares at you, he seems interested in you." She said with a smirk.

"You started again, I told you it's nothing like that." I said to her but I also felt his stare at me. Nowadays he also started flirting with me. I don't know what is going on in his mind, maybe he is just playing around. Because that's what the world told about him.

"Where were you lost cherry?" Chain of thoughts broke with her words.

"Hhh.. no where, to be honest That place was absolutely beautiful, all the things were to my liking as if someone had made it just for me.

And do you know which place was this? My favourite blue pearl hotel. The hotel is owned by Aahana Singh Randhawa. Can you believe this. Mera sapna Pani me beh Gaya use kharidne ka." I said with an unbelievable face.

"Are you serious. That hotel belongs to Mr Khadus. Ohh or sare arrangement tumhare pasand ke the. He might have done it just for you." She said with her mischievous smile.

"Whatever, but I love that place. And you know what one thing I feel odd." I said while thinking about that incident how did he know that I am allergic of penuts.

"What?" She asked with curiosity.

"He is aware about my penuts allergy I don't know how."

"Kay how, maybe guess. Otherwise he must have heard it from somewhere." She replies with furrow.

"Idiot, what guess noone can guess about anyone allergy this correctly. He must have heard it from someone. Maybe from you."

"Yaa you are right, okk let's go to our destination. Warna hum late ho jayenge, tu tho Bach jayegi, but that devil won't leave me alive." We both laugh and leave for our respective place. But I remember one thing I have to inform her.

"Hyy Trisha listen. I might be late, I m going with Mr Randhawa somewhere."

"Again, wo bhi use Khadus ke sath, Now which candle light dinner is this gentleman taking you to?" She asked with sarcastic tone.

"Uff don't run you non-existenting mind. He give me very very precious gift of my life. Chance of meeting my idol, how can I deny that, Samjha kar."

"Ohh By the way, Cherry, which idal are you talking about ? You haven't told me till date, but how does that monster Randhawa know?"

You betrayed your bestfriend. I want justice, my heart is hurting how can my best friend my soulmate betray me for a man, wo bhi Lucifer se sakal wala ke liye." She fake cried.

She is over dramatic. Oh God why she's my best friend. I myself don't know.

"Oyy drama queen just stopped you 50 paise like drama, I myself don't know how he came to know about such a big thing, I had never told anyone till now. Anyway I had given up hope of meeting her. But now I got a opportunity through Mr Randhawa I can't miss this chance. So ya Im going. when I come back I will tell you everything, don't worry. And I am sorry boo to hide this fact, I actually forgot whether in this birth I would ever meet her or not."

"It's ok cherry I know you never hide anything from me." She smiled little.

"Thank you Trisha you are the best." I hugged her.

"Well cherry, is he stalking you?" She said and started laughing her ass out.

Well that thought really seattle me when Mr Randhawa said himself, but he said while playing manner. So I let it go. And again after listening from Trisha same thing. I don't know why I felt a little bit uneasy. But it can't be true How can it be possible that a billionaire man stalks an ordinary girl, this is just a fantasy, not real.

"Fuck you, that never gonna be true pig. Don't imagine things and that type of things felt like creepy to me I don't wanna hear."

"Chill dude I'm just kidding. Par agar ye sach hua tho." This time her expression is serious.

"Shut up, I don't wanna hear this type of nonsense again." I said little bit loud, just thinking about this it sent chill throughout my body. I can't take it this type of shit. It's horrible.

"Ok I'm sorry you are looking pale only with this baseless thought. Don't think much. It's not true and you know it right. Let's go.

I just hummed and go straight to my hospital. But only this thought is revolves around my mind. "Yaa I'm really going to crazy someday because of her stupid question. Don't think like that it's not true Ashika just focus on your meeting." I smiled while thinking about my meet. "I'm gonna impress her today with my intelligence."

I park my car and go straight towards my office, today I have to tackle the most important case As of now I have read the case, that child may have some complications but I am confident enough that me and l Rishi will tackle it. I need to talk to Rishi about it.

"Good morning, sister Marry Can you tell me whether Dr. Rishi is in his cabin now or is he in OT.

"Lovely morning, Dr Ashika Dr. Rishi was waiting for you for a long time, he had no other duty today. But some time ago an emergency case came which he is currently operating and he asked me to inform you. He said that you should come to his cabin and wait for him and he wants to meet you soon, maybe there is something important to discuss.

"Thank you sister Marry. You can go."

She bow at me and left my cabin. It seems that he too must have read the case and might have known about which complications I was talking about. "Let's go Ashika you have to finish you work as soon as. Milne bhi tho jaana hai. Anyway, the surgery is not to be done today then there will not be much work, I will just discuss the case."

I'm waiting for Rishi in his cabin and make out the problems of cases. Door open and there he is.

"Good morning Rose how are you?" He asked politely.

"Good morning Dr Rishi. I'm good What kind of emergency case has come, is everything okay?"

"Yaa everything is good it just accedental case."

"Ok Dr Rishi let's discuss case, I point out every single problem which I figured about. And If you have found some new problem then add it and yes first see my report to see what I have pointed out."

"Haa dikho Rose, well I have also studied this case, and this case is a little more complicated than I thought." He said with a little bit of worry

"Hmm, the problem I see is that, The size of his tumor has increased slightly and it is stuck to the spinal veins of the brain. And also affect internal cerebral veins, as well as the superior and inferior cerebellar veins."

"I have also seen the same major problem in this case. So we have to start procedure as soon as possible. And main problem is that he is a child. So first we have to give him some serum to prepare his brain for the operation."

"Yes you are right, Let's start his treatment from today itself and we will do the surgery the day after tomorrow. Let me inform Dr Naina she will give him injection for now." With that I call Dr Naina she is a junior doctor but very talented she also works with us in OT department.

When Im talking with Naina I fell someone graze at me. And that is Dr Rishi he is staring at me with his intense eyes. I don't know why but I have noticed many times that he always stares at me whenever I am around him. Sometimes I even feel uncomfortable with his gaze. What's the problem with those people? They keep staring at me. Have I become more beautiful these days or have I become more ugly and that too like a monkey?

"Dr Rishi why are you staring at me like this?" I asked fiercely. He just chuckled and said.

"First don't call me Dr Rishi repeatedly, I also told you only Rishi when we are alone and secondly today you are looking gorgeous. That I can't take my eyes off you."

Yakk If he wasn't my friend I would have broken all his teeth, he always looks for a chance to flirt with me.

"You started again. How many times have I told you that I don't like these petty activities?" I said annoyingly. But as always he never take me seriously.

"Rose I'm serious you are seriously looking so so pretty." He tried to act smart. Idiot

"Whatever."

"Well Rose can I ask you somethi--"

Before he could say anything, there was a sound of something breaking and shattering along with someone shouting very loudly.

What was this we both said together.

🥀

My heart's constant beat.

In every silent moment, I wait,

Longing for you, my love, my soul's sweet treat.

A flame that burns bright,

Guiding me through life's darkest night.

In your love, I find solace and peace,

My heart belongs to you, my eternal release.
