Try to put in inline comments....I love reading them😍😍

"I think this was the most erotic thing we have ever done...." He breathed as he pulled a flushed Sonakshi closer to his body to feel her entire frame against his.

"Hmm...that's the most erotic thing we have ever done....yet!"

Dev's POV

Every single day, I learnt something new about Sonakshi. She never failed to surprise me with every side of hers'. She thought my interest would wane, but it was quite the opposite.

Her sexiness comes from her confidence, her ability to take charge. I can say with all honesty, I love to be dominated. After being the boss at work for the whole day it's what I needed at home. But Sonakshi is someone who blew my mind with her actions and I'm putty in her hands from then on.

She can do whatever she wants and she does until I beg for her mercy. It's surprising to how she is in the daytime; so introverted and shy while at night-time, she was a wild tigress. It's the Sona I get to see. She was my wife, the only one who stole my heart.

Morning I had a bad time convincing my mother as she was against Sonakshi joining back to work so early. She demanded that Sonakshi still had certain things to learn at home. How could I go back against my word which I gave to Sona? I have already made my promise and that was final!

"Maa, Sonakshi is coming to work and that's final!" I said as mum gave me a flabbergasted look.

"Dev... what are you talking? What's the rush to go to office now? I am not against her going office but itni jaldi??? At least ask her to stay at home for a few more days, Dev! You can't let your wife dance to her tunes!" she said as I was becoming more impatient.

"Maa... What is she going to do at home anyway? It's not going to make any difference if she joins now or later. Anyways, there is a lot of work in the office and I might be needing her help. So please maa..." I requested as she gave Nisha a glare.

"Maa....Dev is right! Let Sonakshi go for work. At least she might feel a bit better." Nisha spoke and mum quickly calmed down after her request. I didn't know how my mum was so quickly convinced by Nisha. But I just felt like there was a secret conversation between them. I was convincing my mum for so long but she wasn't even listening but when Nisha said once she calmed down?

Guess Nisha is her favourite then!

Just as the breakfast was being served, I heard the clinking sound of bangles and looked up.

The view in front of me was enough to make my day a pleasant one. Sonakshi walked down the stairs wearing a saree. She looked so beautiful in sarees. No matter how many times I saw her in saree, her image just mesmerized me again and again. How was I so lucky to get her?

She came down and greeted me. Soon my father joined us and Sonakshi informed him about going back to work. Thankfully, he was supportive to her decision and blessed her. Sonakshi then took her time and served everyone breakfast before taking a seat.

"Sonakshi, have your breakfast fast. I am leaving soon!" I told her while Nisha glanced at me with shock.

"Dev! There is a meeting at 9. We have to leave right now! I don't think it's a good idea to wait for Sonakshi till she has her breakfast. We should go first and we can ask our driver to pick her up to the office." She said as I looked hastily at my watch.

She was right. We were getting late but something inside stopped me from leaving. If it was someone else, I wouldn't have thought twice before leaving. But Sonakshi was a part of me. She woke up early in the morning and ironed my clothes for me. She didn't have to do that but she still did. She prepared breakfast for everyone and helped Neha style her hair which was why she got a bit late. I couldn't really blame her.

"It's ok. I will have breakfast in the office. Let's leave" Sonakshi said as I glared at her.

"NO one is leaving till you have your breakfast, Sonakshi!" I told her in an authoritative tone.

"But Dev....you are getting late...." She stuttered and looked at me pleadingly. I knew how bad she was in having her meals, and if I am in the office, there would be no one to pester her.

"We will wait for you. Now eat!" I told her, forwarding the plate.

"Yes, Sona beta! You can't skip meals. If you reach office, you wouldn't have the time. You are already so thin...and if you get thinner, people are going to say that we are torturing you." Jay chuckled earning a small smile from Sonakshi.

She sat back on the chair and started eating her food in a hurry.

"It's ok... You guys so first then. I will eat and come." she said and her face fell. I knew she was feeling bad, but I had no choice. I was really getting late.

"Don't worry love. I will meet you for lunch in our office!" I whispered and left from there. The last thing I saw was a beautiful smile on her face.

As we drove to the office Nisha looked at me and sighed.

"Looks like someone is too happy this morning?" she chimed and I grinned at her.

"Yea... Just a great day!" I said and drove the car.

"So, how's married life?" she asked me as her face studied my features.

Immediately memories of last night's events approached me, making me flushed. I quickly controlled my facial expressions and nodded at her. But Nisha wasn't convinced. She looked at me as if I was an alien.

Something about her appearance that day was different. The way she spoke and dressed was all so different. Somehow her dress reminded me of Sonakshi's style. As far as I remembered, I knew Nisha wouldn't wear this type of clothes. However, I decided to brush off these thoughts since I knew Sonakshi was conquering my mind a lot nowadays.

"Gosh, I don't know why... But I feel bad for leaving Sona behind." I blurted out all of the sudden.

"Stop acting like a school boy, Dev! It's not like as if you left her at her parent's home!" she snapped and I looked at her with shock.

"Whoa... What's wrong? I didn't say anything offensive, did I?"

"No all you think nowadays is about your wife and ONLY HER! Have you ever thought about me? You used me when you were feeling low and now, you leave me alone when everything is settled. I was just like your personal tissue paper, right?" she asked as I pressed a sudden break and looked at her.

"WHAT?" I asked not being able to digest what she said.

"YES DEV. HAVE YOU FORGOTTEN THAT SONAKSHI THREW YOU AWAY FROM HER LIFE BECAUSE OF YOUR STATUS AND MONEY? HAVE YOU FORGOTTEN THAT YOU STAYED AWAY FROM YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS FOR FREAKING THREE YEARS BECAUSE OF HER? HAVE YOU FORGOTTEN THAT I WAS THE ONE WHO STAYED WITH YOU ALL THOSE YEARS, FIXING YOU!!!" she screamed with tears in her eyes.

"You have forgotten Dev. Now, I mean nothing in your life. You don't even treat me like a friend anymore. Once you got Sonakshi, you forgot your friend, family....everything. You are so selfish" she said as she started crying.

"Nisha....what.." before I could say anything she got down from the car and walked away.

I was dumbfounded. How could she say those things to me? Of course, she meant something to me. Was I really that ignorant? Did I not acknowledge people around me? Was I really that selfish and ungrateful? Guilt consumed me like a fire. It burned my heart and soul.

Unknowingly flashbacks of those three years played infront of my eyes. Yes, it was true she helped me a lot and I ignored her ever since she came to India.

How could you Dev?

Sona's POV

I rushed to office, taking the car from Dev's house. I didn't know why, I was feeling so uncomfortable. My mind wasn't in peace. I had a bad feeling that something was not right. I felt the panic begin like a cluster of spark plugs in her abdomen. Tension grew in my face and limbs as my mind tried to recall the last time I felt like this. I tried calling Dev but he wasn't available.

How dumb of me. He should be busy in the meeting. Hopefully he doesn't get mad with my calls.

The journey to the office felt like hours. When I reached the office, I sprinted my way towards Dev's cabin. I didn't greet anyone. Jatin was not on his desk as well, but I was too consumed in my thoughts to care about it.

Once I reached the cabin door, I stopped. I didn't know what to do. Am I over-reacting? Maybe... I thought as I opened the door. But the scene which unfolded infront of me was something I had never expected.

I froze on my spot.

Nisha was hugging Dev and she was crying. Wait...crying?

Both of them were seated on the floor and their position was more intimate than what it looked like. Anyone who barged in at that moment would think that they were having an affair. What happened to that 'important' meeting they left for?

As I opened the door wider, Dev stood frozen on the spot. He tried to pull away from the hug but Nisha was not even ready to leave him. She clung to him like his second skin. I can feel the sweat drench my skin, the throbbing of my own eyes and the thumping of my heart against my chest. My fingers are curled into a fist, nails digging into my palm. I was so infuriated. I slammed the door shut and walked away with burning rage. But the worst part was, Dev let me go! He didn't make an effort to follow me or stop me. I was done! So done!

I walked to my cabin and locked the door. I started doing my paper works. I wasn't a weak woman who would sit down and cry over things like this. I was stronger than that. Of course, I didn't suspect Dev. I knew Dev would never cheat on me. But just the scene of them hugging was too disturbing. I just tried breathing in and out to calm myself down.

It was pass lunch hour. There were many people knocking the door, requesting to meet me but I brushed them off by saying that I was busy. Dev was calling me continuously, but I just rejected the calls. The last thing I wanted to hear from him was his apologies!

By the time I finished my work, it was really late. I opened the door and came out. Everything was normal. The environment looked calm and composed. I had no courage to go back to Dev's cabin anymore. I didn't feel like I belonged here anymore. A place where I enjoyed working was now becoming the most hated place for me.

When I walked towards the printing machine, I saw Nisha walking towards me. Urgh...not again! How dare she? I couldn't believe how girls like her even exist. She was so disgusting. To me, she was just a bitch.

"Hey...I told you! It won't be long for me get close to Dev... Do you know that we literally stayed together for three years under the same roof? Did you really think that he would forget me and get close to you? Listen Sonakshi! Your time is coming to an end soon. Just get ready to leave the Dixit's mansion!" Nisha uttered as I just shook my head tiredly.

"You know what? I don't like talking to people with low IQ...so just leave me and save your lectures for someone else because if you think that your words are going to provoke me, then you are wrong! You may have stayed with him for three years, but you still couldn't win his heart. No matter where he stays or who he stays with, his heart belongs to me and I know that I don't need to worry about anything." I shrugged and she rolled her eyes.

"Look here Sonakshi... If I could fake myself as Neha and spoil your relationship, then you should have known. I would go to any extent to destroy your marriage..." she said in a deadly tone.

I glared up at her and saw her evil smile extending up to her eyes.

"And guess what? I am already halfway successful" Nisha smiled before leaving me stunned.

------------------------

Dev messaged me to meet me after work but I just ignored it. He was stuck in the meeting for the whole day. He tried to meet me but too bad, I wasn't in the office. We were literally playing hide and seek in the office.

As I exited the office, I was pissed off with the heavy rain. It wasn't just a normal rain. It was a heavy downpour. It felt as if I was walking through a waterfall. I just felt like the day couldn't get any worse. I took my umbrella and walked further till I could find a cab but luck wasn't on my side that day. Soon I realized that the umbrella was not useful as well, as half my body was already drenched.

I felt too tired and suffocated. The pain in my heart was worse than anything else. I threw the umbrella in frustration and walked down the road as my tears mixed with the raindrops and rolled down on my face.

That's when the puddles had formed and the rain danced in them like watery sprites. The lightening flashed on a far-away mountain, like a serpent of brilliant light sent to bite the earth. My heart just pounded at the sight. I regretted my decision of leaving the office without telling Dev. The saree I was wearing didn't help me either. My battery was low but still, the self-respect left in me stopped me from calling Dev.

As the sky shook with the cry of the thunder, I ran all the faster to reach some sort of shelter. Before I could cross the road successfully, a car almost knocked me off. It stopped exactly a few inches away from me and to my horror, it wasn't any unknown car. It was his car.

Dev...

Dev stared at me with horror and his eyes held so much of accusations! What did I do? Without waiting, he walked out of his car and removed his blazer.

"What are you doing here Sonakshi? Don't you know how to receive your calls? I can't believe you are being so childish! You are not even letting me explain and taking your own decision! Do you know I can't even concentrate in work nowadays because all I am thinking is about you! Is this how you want me to feel like? Always looking after you, thinking about you and chasing behind you? Is this how you want me to be?" he burst his anger out as I stood there absorbing the words he said.

"ME??? Was it me or you? I didn't take your calls because I was clearly angry!!!! I have expressed to you that I was insecure over your relationship with Nisha! Still you never did anything to help me with my insecurities! I can't Dev! It just disturbs me!" I yelled as he closed his eyes and clenched his fists.

He was trying hard to control his emotions but I wasn't scared anymore. It was just me, him and the rain.

"So, you don't trust me? Right?"

"No! I trust you and that is why it hurts! It hurts badly.... What would you have done if you found me hugging my cousin in my office room? Would you be okay with it?" I asked bravely as he stood stunned.

"Sona... it's not like that.."

"I am not hearing your apologies. I am sick and tired of putting you as my first, on my priority list. Now I want to make others my priority! From now on, I will spend more time with my family, friends and colleagues. After that with whatever time I have left, I will try and spend with you. At least in that way, you will know how it feels when you are not treated right....." I yelled not caring whether I faint there due to exhaustion or not.

"So, are you trying to say that I didn't love you enough? Care about you? Did I ignore you as well?" he asked. There was so much of hurt underlying in his voice.

"No...it's not just about love, Dev! I always come second to you in everything! You choose your work first, then your cousin...and then family. I always come the last! I feel so..." I sobbed as I held his car for support.

"So lonely..." I whispered more to myself.

Dev immediately strode towards me and grabbed my chin forcefully to face him.

"You are saying that I am keeping you away and putting you second in everything. But you know what? Nisha was crying in the morning, accusing me that I was ignoring her after our marriage. You know how I felt at that moment? She made the same accusation like yours! WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK I SHOULD DO SONAKSHI?" he yelled making me flinch.

The rain got heavier and the water dripped down his hair to his face. He came closer to me, grabbed my arms and pinned them behind me. My back hit a tree in the corner of the road as he stared at me intently.

"Tell me Sonakshi... Have I really ignored you? I agree that you were not happy with what you saw today. I know! But what could I do? She was crying in front of me. She hugged me. I can't forget the fact that she has helped me a lot when you were not there. She was the pillar behind my success and you have to accept it! Whether you like it or not, I have to do this! I will be there for her when she needs me. AS A FRIEND! I can't leave her for you Sonakshi...I am not so ungrateful at least!" he spat as his grip on me tightened.

"So, she is more important to you than me right?" I asked with quivering lips.

His face softened as he leaned against me.

"No one in this world is more important to me than you Sonakshi... Haven't I told you that before? I confessed to you so many times Sonakshi. I have never hidden anything behind your back. Never lied to you... You have never been my second option in anything. Sometimes I do give extra priority to my work and I might have hurt you for that, but trust me! It pained me every time I saw that sad look on your face. I am trying to make things better Sonakshi....Yet, all you do is get angry. Sometimes I can't understand the reason behind your anger and that just makes me so irritated." He huffed and clenched his eyes shut in pain.

He was right. I couldn't deny his words this time. I had nothing to say. My anger was not on him but his family members. And yet, I took no steps to fight with them. All I did was to show my anger on Dev. I was being stupid. I was venting my anger on him and destroying our relationship. I should have talked to him before taking my decisions. Instead I blurted nasty things to him.

I realized Dev had never put me as a second option. He took every chance to express his love for me. Of course, at times he had to go away due to circumstances and I had to be an understanding wife. Now he would think of me as a spoilt brat. More tears gushed out of my eyes as we were still standing under the rain.

I struggled to pull my hands away from him as he stood there still.

"Leave me....please.." I whispered as the roaring sound of thunder made me shiver.

"Where did you go after work?" he hissed as I shivered when his hot breath touched my cheeks.

When I remained silent, he moved away and started looking at me with hurt. Shaking his head in defeat, he walked away. I couldn't take this anymore. I immediately walked towards him and hugged him from behind.

"I......I...was....u-upset. I didn't wait...for..you...I walked.....to...to...take a c-cab" I stammered as he turned towards me and came closer, removing all the distance between us.

"You have been a bad....girl...Sonakshi.. You left me alone there. You deserve some punishment. Don't you?" he spoke huskily against my ears as his fingers traced the outline of my saree which was now clinging on to my skin. I didn't reply anything and hung my head low.

Sensing my uneasiness, he left me alone and took his steps back.

"Fine if you still don't want to believe me then-" before he could complete his sentence, I pushed him against his car and kissed him with all my might.

The rain ran down our faces to where our lips met, each of us tasting the cold drops. Instead of detracting from the intensity of the moment it brought us to new heights. Dev pushed his lips in more firmly and the wave that ran through me was intoxicating, making my head swim. I sucked on his lips conveying how much sorry I was. I felt his lips smiling against mine as I pulled back to take in his beautiful face.

"Let's get inside the car first..." he spoke breathlessly as I nodded and got in.

Once we were inside the car, he held my head in his hands and pulled me into a fiery and passionate kiss. My hands reached his neck to pull him closer but he pulled away and closed his eyes taking in deep breaths. He looked down at me and that's when I realised my state. My saree was revealing every asset in my wet glory. Shit...

He offered me his coat and I immediately covered my wet body with his huge blazer. Most importantly, I had to hide my almost naked frame in front of my naughty husband.

"Dev....I am really sorry. I didn't really mean whatever I said there. I was just very insecure. I don't like it when Nisha is close to you. You guys can be really good friends but not everyone will see the both of you in that perspective. At times, the way she behaves to you appears far more intimate than how it looks like to you. I am sorry that I poured out my frustrations like that to you. You are the only one who I can take out my anger at times....... I know how much you love me.... I will never question your love for me because you have always made it clear....it's just..." before I completed he cut me in.

"It's ok Sonakshi. Everyone do get angry. I never took your words seriously and I also understand how terrible you must have felt, when you saw me with Nisha because I would have never tolerated seeing another person hug you like that..." he said guiltily as I smiled at him.

"Do you feel like I am a brat?......I am not." I made a pout as he suppressed his laughter.

"You are! You are my bratt" he said pulling my cheeks.

As the car got silent, I took my time and admired his wet appearance. His wet hair stuck on his face while his white formal shirt glued to his body, displaying his perfect chest and abs. When my eyes met his, I noticed that his eyes was drinking in my wet form. From top to bottom.

I squirmed nervously as his hands connected with my hairs as he untangled the wet knots slowly, sending current through my scalp. My hands made their way towards his neck and slowly played with his shirt buttons. My lips parted and I inhaled deeply when I felt his hands tracing my neckline, moving the saree aside. His gaze was so intense that I felt that he was making love to me using his eyes.

"Dev..." I whispered and he groaned painfully.

He immediately retracted his hand and started his car. The drive was a silent one. I didn't know what to say as I sat quietly biting my lips. I was so stupid to be angry at Dev. I should have sensed that Nisha is up with her new trick. She was manipulating Dev by using his weakness. How dare she accused him of not showing any attention to her?

Now he would be guilty and show more attention towards her. How do I tell Dev that Nisha was there for him for the three years only due to her selfishness?

When the silence was unbearable, I looked outside the window to check where we were. That's when I realized something.

"Dev....where are we going?" I panicked.

"To my penthouse!"
