Romila's head started spinning seeing Ram and Priya together like this. Romila collapsed on the floor the next second, not able to digest that the rumours and gossip were actually true.

"Oh No!" Priya covered her face with her palm.

"Ram, let's make her sit in the chair." Priya and Ram made Romila sit in the chair.

"Romila?" Ram called her but no response from Romila.

"What happened to her? She must be in utter shock." Priya was worried.

"Right." Ram nodded.

Priya became worried for Romila.

"Why did you enter my cabin all of a sudden? If you had not come here, this wouldn't have happened." Priya frowned at Ram.

"Wow, you are blaming me now? If not you were so stubborn, I would not have come here to make you drink the juice. Why did you not lock your cabin's door in the first place?" Ram fired back.

"I did not dream about you and Romila would barge into my cabin at the same time." Priya snapped at him.

Ram kept his hands on his hips frowning at Priya.

"Don't pass me that look now. We can fight later so let's try to wake her up." Priya retorted.

Priya came behind Romila's seat to fetch some water and splashed a few water droplets on her face.

Romila slowly opened her eyelids and found Ram in front of her.

"Jaanu, you know what I had a very bad dream. Fortunately, it's just a dream." Romila smiled nervously not noticing Priya who was standing just behind her chair.

Ram gaped at her. "Romila, sorry to shatter your dreams but that's the reality." Ram said before pulling Priya from the behind.

Romila's face went pale seeing Ram keeping his hand around Priya's shoulder. Romila looked at Priya who had a guilty look on her face.

"What are you talking about?" Romila asked, perplexed.

"We are together." Priya finally opened her mouth.

"It's just a fling, right?" Romila desperately waited to hear a positive nod from Ram but failed horribly when he nodded his head sideways.

"Priya & I are married almost a year back and we wanted to announce our marriage on our anniversary after a month." Ram disclosed the truth to Romila.

Romila's mind went blank hearing the biggest news about her, Jaanu.

"Jaaanu!" Romila started crying.

"Please calm down, Romila. I was always very clear about my feelings for you since the beginning, wasn't I?" Ram asked.

"Didiiii, I have not expected this from you." Romila whined.

"I am sorry, Romila for not telling you but we have our reasons to do so." Priya tried to convince her.

"We haven't disclosed our marriage due to some security concerns. I hope you don't tell anyone unless we do." Ram added.

"I really considered you as my sister but did not know that you would snatch my Jaanu from me." Romila wailed like a baby.

Priya did not know what to say. She knew that Romila was very immature and crazy but she has to handle her nicely.

"I did not know that you love Ram so much. I would have reconsidered my decision to marry him if at all I had known about you before." As soon as Priya said this, Ram glared at her with a shocking expression.

"Really?" Romila was amused.

Priya stole glances from Ram who was staring at her with deadly looks for uttering such nonsense to cool down Romila.

"Yes, but it's too late now, right?" Ram asked in a sarcastic tone.

"Correct." Priya's answer made his jaws drop in astonishment.

"Is there no chance for me, Jaanu?" Romila being Romila asked Ram while bringing him back to his senses.

Ram looked at her hopelessly. "Come on, Romila. Please grow up. You can find a better man in your life." Ram tried to put some sense into Romila's small brain.

"Not better than you." Romila was stubborn.

Priya felt helpless seeing persistent Romila.

"Please Romila, accept the reality and move on in your life." Priya kept her hand on Romila's shoulder.

"Both of you cheated me." Romila looked at both of us and left from the cabin, whining like a baby.

Priya and Ram stood there watching Romila's retreating figure.

"What do you think? Will she be able to understand?" Priya asked, unsure of Romila's behavior.

"Don't worry about her. She will understand gradually. She might take some time to process things." Ram told.

"You know her well, don't you?" Priya squinted her eyes.

Ram threw his hands in the air sighing out of disbelief.

"I know Romila for a long time now and I have been watching her tantrums and all her crazy stuff for years. Her mentality is child-like. So I can guess her behavior, that's it, nothing else." Ram reasoned.

"Hopefully, she does take everything positively." Priya sighed.

After a short gap, she asked, "Do you think she will tell everybody before we even disclose about us?"

"I don't think so. Either ways it does not matter. Don't think much about this." Ram responded coolly.

At night,

Ram was watching the football match on the TV. Priya was getting bored sitting quietly next to him for a long time.

"Ram!" Priya called his name cutely.

"Hmm" his focus was fixed to the match.

"Raaaam!" Priya raised the decibels of her voice.

Ram turned to look at her side hearing the changed tone. "What happened? Why are you screaming?"

"I am getting bored." Priya said, pouting her lips.

"Give me 10 minutes, baby. Match is at the final stage and will get over soon." Ram pleaded.

"Only 10 mins, okay." Priya agreed.

"Love you, baby." Ram said happily before engrossing himself in the match again.

Priya slowly adjusted her head in his lap, as he was busy watching TV.

He smiled at her and slowly let his fingers massage her scalp. Priya moaned while her eyes still closed, feeling the calming sensations created in her head.

"You know what; you have magic in your hands. I feel like kissing them right now but I want this magic to continue for some more time. Go on!" Priya said with her eyes still closed.

"Don't worry darling. I will take a huge payment for all these services." Ram chuckled.

"Just keep doing. I will give you whatever you ask for if I am getting this head massage daily." Priya giggled.

"Think about it once again, Mrs Kapoor." Ram replied.

"No second thoughts." Priya answered.

"Woah! That's great then." Ram said, continuing to massage her scalp in circular motions just as she loved the most.

Ram switched off the TV and looked at her.

"Are you not watching your favorite match?" Priya asked.

"What to do? My wife is distracting me a lot. I am unable to focus on anything else other than her right now." Ram reasoned.

Priya opened her eyes the next moment only to find her husband gawking at her. She got up from his lap and sat next to him.

"Hey, I forgot to ask you something in the morning, what did you say in front of Romila?" Ram asked, remembering something.

"What did I say?" Priya gave a nonchalant shrug.

Gripping on her elbow tightly, he pulled her slightly towards him making eye contact before asking, "Is that true that you would not have married me if you knew about Romila's one-side love for me?"

"Yes, I am feeling very bad that I came in between you and Romila." Priya tried to maintain a straight face.

"Like, seriously?" Ram gasped while releasing her hand.

"I feel you and Romila make a good pair." Priya smiled as her tongue danced in the cheek.

"What? Are you crazy?" Ram was shocked.

Priya could not hold back any longer and burst into laughter seeing his shocking face.

"Is this a joke to you? Romila and I together, oh god, never! Not even in my wildest dreams." Ram stated with a horrified expression.

"Anyway, let me remind you that you did not want to marry me either. You used to hate me like anything." Ram sulked, turning his face to the other side.

Priya turned his face towards her holding his chin. "Not anymore!" Priya confessed while placing a soft peck on his lips.

Priya pulled his cheeks in an adorable way making him smile brighter.

"I love you till the moon and back now, happy?" Priya said resting her head on his chest snuggling close to him.

"You should, after all my tremendous efforts did not go in vain." Ram smiled and hugged her back. "And....let me tell you that I love you more than you do."

"No way. I love you more." Priya countered.

"No, I love you more." Ram and Priya started a light-hearted verbal fight.

"Oh is it? Then show me how much you love me." Priya challenged him in a playful way.

"Oh, I like this very much. My pleasure, darling." Ram said. Without wasting a second, he pulled her beneath him and started showering kisses all over her before taking her into their pleasurable ride.

They had a passionate lovemaking session while the green room blushed with their melodious groans and moans.

Ram and Priya cuddled to each other and slept in each other's arms. Priya was the first one to drift into deep slumber after they made love. Ram smiled looking at her naked state, her smudged sindoor and the mangalsutra dangling freely around her neck stimulating his senses to the core.

He bent towards her and kissed on her mangalsutra. She shuddered with the touch of his lips on her bare skin.

"You make me uncontrollable, Priya." Ram said while moving towards her ears.

"How can I control myself when you make me go crazy for you in the morning, noon and night?" Ram complained innocently.

He could see her lips curved into a gentle smile in her sleep. He so wanted to show his love for her one more time by making passionate love to her.

Ram somehow controlled himself seeing her sleeping. He covered the duvet over them decreasing the AC temperature. Snuggling close to her, he slept digging his face in the crook of her neck while snaking her hand around her tummy caressing her delicately.

Ram & Priya relishing every moment in the first trimester of Priya's pregnancy. As the days passed, Ram was being extra careful and extra protective towards Priya and the baby. He was making it difficult for her to deal with his over cautiousness. Priya sometimes used to wonder who got pregnant between them, seeing his mood swings.

Romila did not stop hitting on Ram even though Ram and Priya disclosed their relationship. Ram and Priya could not do much as Romila was a hopeless case.

*********

In the Kapoor Industries,

"Did you look at the email from the management?" Sheila asked Romila.

"What's there in it?" Romila asked.

"There is an event which is going to be celebrated in a wider range this year. I think the management is going to celebrate this annual event a little early this year but they haven't mentioned anything about the reason behind the event." Sheila shared her views.

Romila remembered about Ram's words as he mentioned that he would like to disclose about their marriage in a month.

"Probably, Jaanu and Didu wanted to announce their marriage on this occasion." Romila thought to herself.

"Do you think there is anything special about this event this year? Why did they prepone this by a month this year?" Sheila asked.

"I know that but why should I tell you." Romila said before turning to the other side with full-on attitude mode.

"Hein? Crazy woman!" Sheila muttered.

**********

Days quickly passed and the day finally arrived when Raya was going to announce their marriage.

Early morning in the green room,

"Happy Anniversary, Ram!" Priya wished as soon as Ram opened his eyes in the morning.

"Happy Anniversary, darling!" They shared a quick kiss after wishing each other.

"So, ready to face the world as Mrs Priya Ram Kapoor?" Ram asked excitedly, sitting next to her resting on the backrest.

"To be honest, I am a little nervous." Priya admitted.

"What's there to be nervous about? Anyway, we have to announce today or someday so chill. I am always there by your side." Ram told.

"But still..." Priya stretched her words.

"No buts and ifs. You don't have to fear when I am near to you." Ram comforted her by hugging her from the side.

Priya nodded and smiled at him.

"Where is my anniversary gift?" Ram asked suddenly.

"You will get it in a few months." Priya said, caressing on her belly.

Ram placed his hand on top of her while smiling at her. "I am not talking about this gift." Ram said, earning a confused gaze from her.

"You already have everything. What should I get for you?" Priya pouted.

"I am not even talking about the materialistic gifts." Ram shook his head in negation.

"Then?" Priya brought her eyebrows closer.

"Don't you think we have a lot of time before we get ready for the event?" saying this Ram started planting wet kisses on her shoulder blade while pushing away the tiny straps of her night wear.

Priya gasped sharply as he sucked the sensitive area on her neck juncture.

"Raam!" Priya moaned as he pulled her gently down on the bed before towering on her.

His name always sounded magical whenever she called him and turned him on every time.

Ram showered sloppy kisses from one side to the other side while her hands caressed on his back. He removed her nightwear in haste and she too pulled his T-Shirt over his body before they started kissing each other wildly.

Their tongues mated and her fingers started fisting his hair with utmost intensity.

Ram flipped their position making her sit on top of him straddling her legs on either side. Priya gasped, as there was a friction between their private parts through the fabric of their innerwear.

His hands pressed on her mounds over the bra making her gulp. Slowly her head fell backwards feeling the sensations he was generating on her body with his sensual touches.

She leaned forward taking him into a deep kiss. He ran his fingertips on her back before releasing her breasts from the bra.

Priya moaned loudly as his hands slid down on her body clutching her buttocks tightly. He bit her lower lip slightly grazing it with his teeth.

They were aroused completely and need no further foreplay. Rest of their clothes found their place on the floor the very next moment.

Both of them were in skin-to-skin contact while they ended up kissing passionately one more time. Heat generated in their core as their private parts came in direct contact with each other. She could feel his erection poking at her entrance.

The next second, Ram groaned sharply when he entered his tool inside her with a single push. Priya shrieked in pain and dug her nails on his shoulder to balance her composure.

Slowly the pain turned into pleasure as they moved their bodies rhythmically.

The chillness of the AC did not help much to cool down the heat between the lovers. They sweated badly as they rode into their hot lovemaking session.

"I am close, faster!" Ram groaned.

They increased their speed until they reached their climax. Priya slowly lied on top of him, fully exhausted after their hot encounter.

"Love you!" Ram kissed on her forehead.

"Love you more!" Priya kissed on his chest.

They stayed in the same position for some more time hugging each other tightly.

After a couple of minutes, Priya tilted her head asking him, "Where is my gift?"

"I have something in store for you and you will get it at the party only." Ram replied.

"Tell me what is it?" Priya asked out of curiosity.

"Patience baby. I have a surprise for you so wait for it." Ram chuckled.

"No, I can't wait till the party. Tell me, please." Priya pleaded in a cute manner.

"Forget about it for now." Saying this Ram got up and picked her in his arms. "Since it is our first anniversary, I think I should pamper you more."

"No need otherwise we end up getting late to the party." Priya replied tracing his jawline.

"Don't worry about that." Ram did not listen to her and walked straight into the washroom taking her in his arms.

Priya giggled encircling her arms around his neck.
