•SHIVIKA's ROOM•
The dance was great after that Shivay asked Annika to take rest. Sleeping for about 3 hours in each other's arms they woke up at around 6 pm. Annika was snuggling in Shivay's chest while his hands were wrapped around her.

When she woke up she was not able to find him in the room. She went to check into the washroom when he came out all dressed in a black three piece suit.

"Finally the wife woke up!" he said smiling towards her.

"Yes but where is the husband think he is going at this hour?" Annika asked looking at the watch hanging on the wall of the room.

"Not only the husband but even the wife is going out for some shopping" Shivay said only to earn a beautiful excited smile from her in return.

"What? Really? We are going for shopping?" she said with an enthusiasm in her eyes while her tone grew as excited as a five year old kid when you take him for a picnic to any amusement park.

"Yes but you have to promise me one thing" Shivay said making her confuse

"What promise?" She asked raising her eyebrows.

"You won't be careless, you will be with me and won't run away here and there, you won't leave my hand and you will listen to me" he said explaining to her the list of do's and dont's.

Annika was not shocked but she loved how Shivay was trying to make sure that he takes care of her and she chuckled at him
"Aw Shivay, you are such a cutie" she said and pulled his cheeks.

"Stop calling me cute Annika" he frowned, the tone turned a bit frustrated.

How much she loved teasing him and calling him cute. Of course he looked more cute when he got frustrated.

"But why? Am I lying? You dad is cute, right baby?" she mocked him again this time asking the baby while keeping a hand on her belly.

"I think I need to show you how cute I am, let's drop the plan for shopping" Shivay said winking at her while forwarding his steps towards her.

He leaned towards her and pulled her in his arms, wrapping his hands around his waist. He moved more close to her lips and kissed her softly.

"Shiva..yyy" she said looking into his eyes. His eyes always gave her goosebumps. The desire made her go all red.

"Hmmmm?" he asked leaning more close to her, nuzzling her neck.

"You..are..not only cutee but the hottesttt too" she managed to speak while hiding inside his chest out of shyness.

"Oh so someone is accepting that I m the hottest" he said teasing her, now it was his turn.

"Stop it Shivay" she said hitting his chest lightly.

Shivay chuckled at her cuteness and hugged her tightly.

"Okay now lets go for shopping I m super excitedddd" she said in enthusiasm.

Shivay smiled and asked her to get ready.
She entered the washroom and the memories of the morning sexy bath they had together gripped her mind. She blushed vigorously thinking about their intimate special moments.

The moment she came out of the washroom in her bathrobe, she got perplexed to see a beautiful black and maroon jumpsuit hanging in her cupboard. She got delighted to see it.

"Shivayyy! This jumpsuit??" she asked looking at him who was sitting on the recliner reading a magazine.

"For you my love" he said coming towards her and kissed her cheek while wrapping her in his arm from behind.

"This is so beautiful, thanku" she replied with a cheeky smile while he was busy showering the sideline of her neck with wet kisses.

"Not more than you! Bdw did you missed me in the washroom?" he asked in a husky voice.

"N..oooo" she managed to speak hiding her smile.

"What? Really?" he asked her in shock, the frown crowning on his forehead.

"I missed you a lot" she said giving him a light peck on his cheek and gushing toward the washroom to change the dress.

Meanwhile he blushed caressing the cheek which she just kissed.

His eyes fell on the epitome of beauty and cuteness standing in front of him. The maroon and black combination on her fair skin made him drool his eyes shamelessly on her curvaceous figure. The wet hair letting lose on her face and back made her look more angelic.

"You look so beautiful in this love" he said staring at her.

"Thanks to you!" she said smiling back at him.

Shivay took her to the dressing table and followed his own tradition of filling her vermillion with his hands. Making her wear the mangalsutra he smudged his ring finger with some kajal and softly put a small dot behind her ear.

"What are you doing Shivay?" Annika asked in amusement.

"Shhh" he said and then slowly unzipping the outer chain of her jumpsuit, he rose her top up and swiftly placed a dot of kajal on her belly too.

"Shivayy??" she again tried to figure out what was he actually doing.

"I don't want any evil eyes to harm my beautiful queen and my baby, so that's why" he said making her understand what was he doing.

Annika felt some happy tears rolling out from her eyes. "Was this the same man who didn't even looked at her once out of hatred and now all he was thinking all the time was about her and their baby. She really needs a kala tika for their beautiful relationship too" she thought.

"Why these tears now?" he asked her wiping them lovingly.

"Nothing just happy tears for having the best hubby in the world" she said hugging him.
And the next moment she put some kajal on her finger and placed a small dot behind his ear too.

"My King also needs to be protected from the evil eyes also I don't want any bitch to stick around you coz fortunately and unfortunately you are a freaking handsome man with those killing blue eyes" she said chuckling at the expression he made.

"You are unbelievable Annika" he said smirking.

"I know that" she said while taking out her purse and taking out her heels from the side drawer of her almirah.

"You are not wearing these heels baby" he said taking the pair of heels from her hand and replacing them with a pair of classic brown wedges.

"But Shivay I love heels" she said pouting.

"And I love you and our baby, heels can be dangerous Annika. I can't let any harmful thing surround you" he said making her smile.

"Okay fine" she said while adoring the brown wedges. She loved the colour brown and the wedges were actually really classy. She wore them and smiles sheepishly at him.He smiled back and they went out of the room.

•THE SHOPPING•
Shivay had already told Mr. Oberoi about his plans with Annika. The moment they reached the mall, Annika's eyes widened with surprise and delightment . It was not that she went shopping for the first time, she had been to all expensive malls when she lived in London that too every week but since her marriage it was the second time she came for shopping with Shivay. The first time when she was on her honeymoon and she bought a watch for Shivay and this was the second time, more special because this time she was going to shop for her baby too.

Shivay was able to trace the feelings and emotions on her face. He entwined her fingers and moved inside the mall. They went to different shops of babies and bought some amazingly cute clothes, toys,   Footwear's and some more things for the room of the baby. Shivay also bought some more pregnancy dresses and footwears for Annika. He bought some pregnancy books for himself. After a lot of insistence from Annika, Shivay bought some clothes for himself. Annika was really happy. She felt so good and overwhelmed looking at the shopaholic side of Shivay which was actually for Annika and the baby. He excused himself from Annika to go to washroom, till the time she sat on a restaurant in the mall.

After he came back, they ordered the dinner.
Like always Shivay decided the menu keeping in mind the safety of Annika. He ordered some Chinese food for them coz Annika told him that she was craving for it but he ordered the chefs to keep it light and hygienic with little amount of spices and some healthy herbs.

"Umm I love these noodles" she said eating the noodles, enjoying every bit of it.

"No more sauce Annika" Shivay said giving her a straight smile.

"Whatever" she said rolling her eyes and concentrating on the food.

After having the dinner they forwarded to the mansion.

"So are you happy madam?" Shivay asked her while driving.

"Yes really happy but Shivay " Annika tried to say something.

"Yes baby tell me" he asked her knowing that she wanted to say something.

"I feel like eating Ice cream" she said.

"Okay, lets go the parlour" he replied.

"Not from parlour Shivay" she spoke again.

"Then?" he asked in confusion.

"From that vendor" she said pointing towards the stall of ice cream at the side of the road.

"What?? Not from there Annika" he said in a strict tone.

"But whyyyy??" she said frustratingly.

"Because that's not hygienic enough" he told her.

"I don't care! Moreover not everyone can afford Ice cream from an elite parlour Shivay. The whole world eats it from the stalls and they still breath okay" she shot at him with irritation in her eyes.

"Annika baby listen to me" he said calmly sensing the angry harmones that were now active.

"I don't want to listen to you" she said folding her hands and looking outside the window.

Shivay knew there was no other way but to do whatever she wanted him to. He wanted to give her a beautiful happy day and now at the threshold of their beautiful day he didn't felt like making her angry and spooling it. So like a gentlemen husband he parked his car near the ice cream stall and went to buy her favourite milk orange candy for her.

She was literally smiling in her head for convincing him, although she was faking her anger but it worked. She was patting her self for being such a good actress when he came back in the car and handed over the candy to her,

"Here's to the most cute lady in the world" he said making her face turn towards him.

She quickly grabbed the ice cream and started eating it like a baby without saying anything. He looked at her with amazement, was she actually going to be mother? Coz her own childishness and innocence was still not gone. He chuckled at the cuteness. She ate the ice cream happily and smeared her face with it. Her lips, upper lips, nose everything was smeared with melted ice cream.

Shivay adored her the whole time she ate the ice cream. After sometime she finished the candy and threw the stick outside.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" she said to him.

"Let me tell you" he said leaning towards her and smashed his lips on her. She gasped with the sudden action. His lips tasted the drops of ice cream while his hands roamed on her waist. She arched back in pleasure whereas his lips traveled to the corner of her lips and then to her chin. She roamed her fingers in his hair and he kissed her with all his passion.
After some minutes he pulled back from the kiss and said,

"The ice cream was really nice" to which she blushed vigorously.

"You are such a" she stopped in between

"I am such a What Annika?" he said looking into her eyes as if teasing her.

"Such a sweetheart" she said and smiled making him smile too.

They reached home at 11. Mr. Oberoi was already asleep. After changing into the night dress both Shivay and Annika lied down on the bed cuddling each other lovingly.

"Shivay! Thanku so much for making the day so happening and beautiful" Annika said kissing his chest lightly while snuggling more into him.

"Anything for you my love! This is not even a percent of what I want to do for you coz all that matters to me is your happiness" he said kissing her forehead.

"I love you Shivay" she said and the next moment she kissed him on his lips. The sudden action shocked Shivay. He kissed her back passionately. Pulling apart from the kiss, Annika leaned on Shivay and opened the upper three bottons of his kurta. After opening them, she softly placed some kisses on his chest. Shivay was literally feeling startled. His shy queen was behaving all bold, obviously he was happy. She roamed her hands swiftly on his chest and then gave feathery kisses on his neck. He gasped in pleasure and looked into her eyes which had a mixed shade of shyness as well as passion. Knowing what she wanted him to do, he wrapped his one arms around her waist while with the other hand he turned off the lights of the room.

It was now his turn to receive a surprise from his wife as a token of love and happiness in return of the surprises that he gave to her the whole day. It was all darkness in the room but the moonlight shined bright telling the story of the two souls who were writing a new poetry of love.
