Recap - Shayra and Mason have reached the Village of Oia, they clicked some pictures and after that, Shayra went to change into the long backless gown with a beautiful trail. After changing into these clothes, she came out of the bathroom and went to the living room to meet Mason, who was in shock looking at her dressed beautifully in a white gown looking like an angel. He was so lost in her beauty, that he didn't reply to her when she called him.



Mason POV

Shayra opened her eyes and looked at him in a bewildered way, and thought to herself.

How could he tease me at this moment, I thought he was finally going to initiate the kiss, but this idiot wanted to tease me, Let's see who is going to lose this game of teasing now, He messed with the wrong girl for sure.

"Perhaps," she countered, her voice playful tone. Her fingers trailed up and down his neck, sending a jolt through him. Their lips were a breath apart, the air thick with unspoken desire. "But how about we see this photoshoot through first, Mr. Photographer? I wouldn't want to ruin the picture with a messy kiss you know."

A flicker of disappointment crossed Mason's face before a smile tugged at his lips. "As you wish my queen," he conceded, his voice rough. He stepped back, professionalism momentarily replacing the heated desire in his eyes.

But Shayra wasn't finished. Leaning in close putting her hand around his, she whispered, "Make it worth the wait, though.

" With a wink, she turned and walked outside the hotel room in her 6-inch heels, making a click-clack sound on the tile and towards the breathtaking Santorini view, leaving Mason behind with his own tangled emotions.



Author POV

Mason took beautiful pictures of shayra some pictures were smiling some were candid and in some pictures.

You can say shayra is teasing Mason with the bold poses, and they also recorded some videos, when Mason was done with the pictures & video, They went into the beautiful cafe to have the lunch.

They ordered the special dishes Moussaka of this place with other dishes like cheese & garlic bread, with special orzo salad & greek potato stew.

And continued to chat as their food was being prepared.

So why did you start travelling, I know you were doing a corporate job, and you were earning a good amount there, so why this sudden change of mind? asked Mason.

Well you know, when you suddenly left in a hurry for the UK, without informing me anything, just told me that you would be back as soon as possible.

But you haven't returned for two years, and I have been waiting for you, when suddenly One day, I received one letter and an exhibition ticket from your brother Jason, which I thought was from you at first.

But to my disappointment, It was from your brother, and in that exhibition all my pictures were there, which you had taken when we were staying together.

That day I met Jason for the first time and also I got the worst news of my life that you were No more.

I was heartbroken, and I didn't know what I wanted to do in my life, as I had never imagined my life without you in it, and suddenly I got the news that you were No more, So I went back home, cried the whole night and next morning I decided that I will resign from my Job.

Because I didn't want to stay in one place and stay in that empty house which always reminded me of you & that I am again alone in this world.

So I decided to travel, as you always wanted me happy, so I didn't want to waste this life. said Shayra and stopped because the waiter arrived with their food.

Sir and Ma'am here is the Moussaka for you two with cheese & garlic bread, with special orzo salad & greek potato stew, said the waiter and served them the food.

Anything else you need sir?

Nope Thank you for your work, said Mason.

Okay, after saying this waiter left them.

So let's dig in first or the food will get cold, said shayra.

But I want to know, can you please tell me, I am really sorry that because of me you have to go through all of this? asked Mason sadness visible in his eyes.

Okay, I will tell you everything at night, you can ask me as many questions you want tonight, But now I want to try these dishes and I am starving because of all this travelling and shoot you know, said Shayra.

Okay Okay, I won't ask you now, but you have to tell me tonight, It's a deal, you can't back off now. Are you sure? Said Mason.

Yeah, so let me eat now. said shayra and started eating.

They ate quietly and enjoyed the food when Mason noticed that some food was near shayra lips.

Shayra, there is some food near your lips, said Mason.

Where, said shayra and started cleaning it with her hand, but didn't know where exactly the food was there in her face, and wasn't able to clean it.

Mason stood from his seat and moved forward in front of shayra, his face so near to shayra and cleaned it with his hand, and licked it.

Shayra was having an internal monologue in her mind as, to how easily he did all the things by making her feel special, but these small things were having a big impact on her.

And again sat back in his seat, like he didn't do anything cleaned his hand with the tissue and continued eating.

"Heat flooded Shayra's cheeks as she met Mason's gaze. His touch lingered a beat too long, sending a shiver down her spine."

Shayra was embarrassed, and wanted to hide her face somewhere, but didn't show it on her face.

And continued to eat like it didn't happen at all. But still, her heartbeat was still beating so fast, as she was anticipating something from him like he was going to kiss her, but he didn't.

A muscle ticked in Mason's jaw as he debated his next move.

He wanted to reach across the table and If he should kiss her or not, because It was really getting hard for him to control his desire, as he wanted to do so many things with her, But he was controlling himself.

Because he didn't want to scare her, and they just met after a long time, It wouldn't be good, If he took the initiative of kissing her, what if she thinks like I am a pervert or I am after her body?

All these thoughts were going through Mason's mind, after cleaning the food from shayra face.

Once they were done with their lunch, the waiter brought the bill to their table, Mason was going to pay the bill, but Shayra interrupted him and said.

I will pay for it this time, as you have already done so much and also paid for the hotels, I didn't want you to pay for it.

It's my duty shayra, let me pay it, you can pay next time, Mason tried to convince shayra.

Nope, I said that I was paying it and that was final, she scanned the QR Code and paid the money online.

Why are you like this shayra, why do you never listen to me? said Mason who is a little upset because Shayra paid the bill for their food.

Mason, I never want to depend on anybody, and when you were not here for the whole damn 5 years, I did all this myself.

So I am not ready to be dependent on you, and please don't make a big deal out of it, shayra said frustratedly and got from her seat and went outside the restaurant, her intention wasn't to get mad at Mason, But she wasn't able to control her emotions.

Mason who realised his mistake went after her, just then Shayra's toe slipped from the stairs.
