Aishwarya's pov

My head was resting on his chest as he held me close. We were both lying on the bed with a dimly lit room penetrated by moonlight out of the window , the slow winds blowing breaking the silence.

I don't know when i started to feel this confortable, this safe around him. I know i shouldn't... I can't... But...

I can't stop myself... Can't stop myself to seek his comfort, his warmth , his care. I keep reminding myself again and again. The more steps i take back. He just closes the distance in a few steps every single time.

" Ranjeet...."

My voice was barely a whisper as i drew small circles on his chest while he caress my waist.

" Hmm..."

I heard him hum in his deep voice that was calmer than it was never before .

" Why... Does your mother treat you like that?" I managed to ask calmly

I could feel the hesitation as he didn't speak for some time . But then i heard him speak in the same calm voice.

" She's not my mother"

My head snap to look up at him thining my eyebrows.

" She isn't?!"

He push my head back on his chest gently and started playing with my hairs. I lay down silently giving him time to speak.

" No... My mother died when i was 10 years old"

I could feel the pain in his calmness , his voice.

" She was poisoned..... By the Queen"

My whole body tensed just by listening to him but i stayed silent. I didn't want to interrupt him .i want him to open up to me , to tell me all his sorrows .

" My mother was really beautiful. The king...my father was obsessed with her beauty. He used to spend all his free time with my mother which made the Queen jealous and scared of her authority being stolen by my mother.

The sight of my mother dying is still fresh in my mind. It was a horrible scene .. noone came to help even when i cried my heart out for help.

From the day , my mother died.. the real hell for me in this palace began. All my servant's were gone.. i was given an abandoned area with no facility at all.

All those dark, lonely , cold nights ..i wished for nothing but... One person..just one person to hold onto me.

I prayed to god... To give my mother back.but all my prayers went unanswered. i started hating him since then.

My mother was the only person that ever loved me , cared for me and protected me. And then...."

He cupped my face making me look up at him

" Then it was you, Aishwarya "

I hold his gaze silently then close my eyes nuzzling my face in his chest

He caresses my head taking his time to speak ... To make me aware of his deepest hurts and wounds.

" The Queen did everything to make me give up on my life and when I didn't. She sent people to kill me.

I learnt studying, wielding swords and other skills secretly because if anybody knew I'll be proven a threat to her. So i layed low and worked for my goal.

My goal to take revenge from every single person that ever hurted my mother. To take over Hind and become the strongest... A man noone can ever even think of trampling over."

I caress his chest trying to comfort him. But he suddenly turned me on my back laying his head over my chest snaking his arms around my waist to pull me so close to him that was possible.

" I was scared ..alone ...and small. I didn't know what to do.. i just wanted to be happy. But this world didn't let me be.

I tried my best to prove my worth . So I won't get killed. She wanted to kill me as i was a competition for her son in the line to throne.

But i made sure to just look like a mere subordinate and nothing more in front of her . But work in silence towards my goal."

I caress his head with one hand and rub his back with other gently to tell him silently that I'm here for him now... I could feel him tighten his arms around my waist. .

" I don't know why I'm telling you something only i knew all these years... I just want to let you know me.. the real me.. my struggles.. my deepest secrets.. i want you to understand me... Be there for me"

His voice was barely a whisper filled with pain and begging for comfort.

I never knew he was holding on so much sadness behind his cold , ruthless and emotionless exterior. I didn't know he was standing alone in this hell hole surrounded by nothing but beasts hungry for his blood.

I hold him close caressing his head until we both fell asleep.

After some time....

Suddenly , i felt a weird sensation on my upper body... I groan opening my eyes.. it was still dark. Maybe midnight.

As i looked down my eyes widened...

Ranjeet was sucking on my bare breast holding the other with his huge rough hand. He looked up at me.. his hairs messed up making him even hot.

He spoke with my nipple on his mouth with a slight smirk

" Did i wake you up , baby?"

His voice barely a whisper but teasing enough

Before i could respond he bit my bud gently making me moan and whimper

" Ahhh....Ranjeet..."

He smirked then sucked my breast harhly making my whole body shudder with pleasure

" Hmm..."

He hummed in his deep , groggy voice licking and sucking my breast like they were his meal and he was hungry from ages.

" Ahhh... What are you doing...?"

" Taking comfort from my saviour "

With that he switched to my other breast kneeding them with his hands which made my back arch and whimper in pleasure

" Ahhhh...Ranjeet.."

He sucked harshly on my cleavage until it left a mark

" Say it again. say my name"

He commanded in his husky voice

" Ahh..mmm..."

I couldn't think straight right now.. before i could react ..

He bit my bud gently but firmly

" Say it. Baby"

" Ahhhh... Ra... Ranjeet "

My voice was more like a beg or whine for pleasure rather than an answer

I could feel him smirk in satisfaction

" Hmm..."

With that he started giving me open mouthed kisses from my cleavage to my navel making me shiver under him.

He held my hips firmly to stop me from moving even an inch then bit my stomach a bit roughly

" Ahhhh...."

" Hm~ don't hold back... lemme listen to your sweet voice baby"

He moved back up trailing a path of kisses

I could feel him devour my collarbone and the pulse point on the side of my neck by sucking and licking it like a delicious meal.

But what he did next made me go completely crazy

He sucked on my earlobe harshly then pulled it slightly with his teeth .

" Ahhhhh....mmm..."

" Ranjeet... I... it's too much...."

He kissed my ear once then moved to my jaw ..kissing it .

He kissed my cheek then stopped millimetres away from my lips looking in my eyes.

" You're so beautiful....baby"

He whispered then captured my lips in a rough passionate kiss which drove me crazy over the edge.

I felt his tongue over my lower lip seeking entry . My lips parted on it's own like they were his slave.

He pushed his tongue in my mouth exploring every single corner of my mouth like a beast making me completely melt under him.

" Ahh....mmmm..."

I moaned in his mouth feeling completely overwhelmed with his actions.

He broke the kiss to look at him. I could see him restraining his desires. His breathing heavy and face bright red like all. The blood rushing in his body even more rapidly .

He put his forehead over mine closing his eyes.

I caresses his face softly. I could feel him groan and shudder as soon as i touched him.

" Mmm~ "

" Are you okay?..." I asked softly

" I'm not.." he breathed

He nuzzled his face in my neck. i could feel his breath on my neck giving me goosebumps.

" You'll seriously kill me someday , Aishwarya"

He whispered...

I could feel his full body weight on me. This huge guy will crush me to death one day...

" You are heavy ..you know"

He chuckled then suddenly bite my neck a little harder

" Ahhhh... Ranjeet!"

" Bear with it"

" I can't breath.. get off"

But he ignored me like I didn't even speak anything... Stubborn bastard

" Goodnight ..baby~"

" Hmph..."

He kissed my neck softly which melted me don't know why ..

I caresses his head

" Goodnight " i spoke in barely a whisper

He fell asleep after some time. I shifted him on the bed and before i could sit up to weary blouse he pulled me by mmy waist making my back touch his chest in one go

This guy can't let me be at ease even in his sleep...

I sighed them laid back as i was too tired to struggle. i fell asleep in no time.
