A few days later, Oberoi Mansion was in a mess due to the presence of decorating items here and there, for Annika and Shivaay's reception which was to be held the next day. Gauri, Bhavya, Khushi-Arnav and Ranveer had already arrived a day ago while the elder Kabeers are supposed to come the next morning.

Shivaay came home from office and saw his mom and badi maa instructing the workers while dadi sat with Om, Ru and Ranveer and talked about her Ishqbaaazi days. He approached them and sat beside Dadi.

D: Areh aa gaya tu? Aaj itni jaldi.

S: Haan dadi. Woh actually Annika ne kaha tha. Usse kuch sherwanis try karwane the mujhse.

R: Wah bhaiya. You actually came but, you must wait. Bhabhi's out with the girl gang for shopping.

S: She came early?
(muttering to himself): Bataya bhi nahi mujhe.

Ra: Yeah jiju. She took a half day since they planned to go shopping. Look, they're here.

Shivaay turned to see Annika entering with Khushi, Gauri, Bhavya and Prinku. Annika saw him and smilingly went to him.

A: Waah. I didn't know the great SSO will come home early.

Shivaay rolled his eyes and replied,

S: In case you forgot, aapne hi kaha tha, ma'am.

A: Wohi toh. I didn't know Workaholic Singh Oberoi will actually listen to me. Chal Ru, tu jeet gaya.

S: What jeet gaya? What's going on?

R: Areh bhaiya, let me explain. I had a bet with bhabhi. I said you will come home early if she calls you but she said you wouldn't, at any cost. So, I won.

S: So childish.

Annika narrowed her eyes at him and spoke with a sarcastic smile,

A: I'm childish? I think you're forgetting SSO that you have to spend your whole life with me. So, think carefully before you speak.

S: Sorry, my lady. You're not childish. You're crazy. Mad.

Annika gasped and was about to retaliate when Dadi interrupted them,

D: Bas karo dono. Kitne ladte ho.

A: But dadi, he called me mad.

Annika whined and Shivaay replied rolling his eyes.

S: Because you are.

This time it was Gauri who spoke.

G: Oh god guys. I really thought you guys will stop fighting after marriage but I guess I was wrong. Aap dono ka kuch nahi ho sakta.

P: Ekdam corrects kaha Gauri ne. Abhi ye sab chhodo. Anni beta, go and make Shivaay try the sherwanis you guys got from the fashion house. If there are any alterations to be made, we must do it today.

A: Yes Mom.
(turning to Shivaay): Chaliye.

Shivaay sighed and left after her while the rest of them got busy with other works.

***

In Shivika's room, Shivaay entered and locked the door. He saw Annika getting the sherwanis out from the packet and went to her.

S: What are you wearing tomorrow?

A: Why?

Shivaay sighed understanding that his wife is still angry from their fight downstairs.

S: We can colour coordinate. Or at least see if what I wear goes with your dress.

A: Check that packet, it's there.

She pointed to a packet and Shivaay left towards it. He stood confused looking at the packet she pointed to.

S: Umm Anni, are you sure it's this packet?

A: Shivaay. I got it right? Obviously that's the one.

Annika spoke without looking at him since she was trying to fix a button on one of the sherwanis.

S: Anni, but this packet is..

A: Shivaay, I told you na? Check that.

Shivaay sighed and opened the packet. He was not at all shocked seeing what came out of it.

S: Nice choice, Anni. My favourite colour. Lacy. Perfect size. 34C, wow.

Annika was shocked hearing him and looked up to see him holding a bottle green lacy bra and smirking. She got up and snatched it from him.

A: Cheapde. Yeh kya nikala?

S: I asked you, you said this packet. Maine kehna bhi chaha that it's a lingerie store's packet but no, why'd you listen? I talk unnecessarily all the time, no?

Annika frowned and looked away, innocently speaking to him,

A: Haan thik hai. Galti ho gayi mujhse. But I did point right. It was right behind this packet. It's your one track mind which made you pick this packet.

S: At least I got to know your size.

He spoke eyeing her breasts teasingly. Annika gasped and covered his eyes.

A: You're getting very naughty these days, SSO.

Shivaay removed her hands from his eyes and held her waist, bringing her closer, speaking seductively.

S: So, who should I act naughty for?

Annika sarcastically chuckled and replied while caressing his neck,

A: If you keep calling me mad, childish and all that, trust me, you'll forever act naughty for your hand only.

Shivaay gulped hearing her while she faked a smile and fixed the lapel of his coat before handing him the sherwanis.

A: Try these. Now.

Shivaay obeyed at once hearing her threat while she controlled her laughter seeing his face. He opened his shirt and tried a few but remained confused on what to choose. He sighed turning to her.

S: Anni. I'm confused. All look good.

Annika walked to him and caressed the black one he was wearing.

A: This looks better. Plus it'll go with my outfit too. And the brooch exactly matches my saree.

S: Your wish. It fits properly too. So, alterations ki zaroorat nahi hai.

A: Hmm. Take it off. I'll keep it properly.

Shivaay gave it to Annika and left to freshen up while Annika kept the clothes properly. He returned and wore his kurta before heading for dinner.

***

He went to the dining room only to find it empty and got confused. He saw Annika in the kitchen and went towards her.

S: Anni. Where's everyone?

A: Sab ne khana kha liya hai. They had an early dinner. Now they're off to bed. Apparently, they need their beauty sleep before tomorrow's event.

S: Wow. The bride and groom are awake, it's their event and others are having beauty sleep.

Annika served their dinner on the table while he followed her. They sat to eat when Annika spoke,

A: Waise. The bride needs her beauty sleep too. So control your daily cheapdapanti tonight.

Shivaay narrowed his eyes and frowned replying to her,

S: You're speaking as if I fuck you all night. I just kiss you.

This statement made her blush deep and got him a light slap on his shoulders from his dear wife.

A: Speak slowly. You're not in room.

Shivaay made faces and ate while Annika controlled her laughter watching him.

No, they didn't consummate yet. But their nights were filled with kisses and cuddles which none of them could get enough of and which would take a long time to subside, every night. Annika would find herself waking up in the crook of his neck most of the times and would see his hands resting on her waist. She could feel the raw sexual tension between them; so could he.

Like the gentleman he was, he didn't cross any boundaries fearing he'll make her uncomfortable. Only if he knew, she was the most comfortable with him. Only if he knew, how her legs became like jelly when he comes close to her. Only if he knew, she was the one on the verge of losing control here.

Later at night, Annika came out of the washroom after freshening up to see him already on bed with his eyes closed. She smiled watching her Obedient Singh Oberoi and slowly hovered him which made him open his eyes.

A: Some time won't ruin either of our beauty. We can still sleep well.

Saying this she held his face and captured his lips into a slow kiss. He reciprocated and held her waist. After some time, it wasn't slow anymore. It became more passionate and fiery.

Shivaay turned their positions, not breaking the kiss and hovered Annika. He bit her lips and thrusted his tongue insider her mouth making her moan in the kiss.

Every day, their kissing sessions grew more intense and she couldn't get enough of him. Neither could he. Not being able to resist his control, Annika groaned and held his hands moving it from her cheeks to her left breast. Shivaay groaned, still kissing her and kneaded her left globe over her kurti.

He broke the kiss and attacked her neck with hungry open mouthed kisses while she was a moaning mess. She pulled him closer by his hair as he sucked on her neck and arched back to give him more space.

Shivaay, with some courage, for the first time, put his hand inside her kurti through the slit and squeezed her left breast through her bra, which earned a loud moan from her. His left hand went towards her thighs to wrap it around his waist and Annika obliged.

As he kissed the crook of her neck, he felt her biting his neck which made him groan. She sucked on the spot while running her hands up and down his back which made him groan out loud and he distanced himself, confusing her.

A: Kya hua?

Shivaay replied breathing hard, still overcoming his high from kissing her senseless,

S: We should sleep. It's late.

She understood why he did it and couldn't help but feel proud of him. He wasted no time in lying down and cuddling her which made her smile and lulled them both to a peaceful sleep.
