Kano State, Nigeria.
2018.

Falak kept grunting because Shaddad was dragging her out of the hospital like she is a sack of rice that has so much stones in it and he won't do anything to it. She didn't like it but then again, this is what she wants, to aggravate Shaddad and push him to the wall and that is exactly what happened, he is dragging her with him so she stood up straight and wrap her other hand around the one he is using to hold her and she felt him tensed underneath her fingertips.

Pure muscles!

His hand is so strong and hard as a stone. She could feel the trace of his strict veins underneath. She let her jaw drop because she didn't think it will bring another reaction from her other than the happiness she is feeling about annoying him. Now, she feels nervous and hot all her body, she was literally shivering in delight, frisson. She doesn't know what to do again, of she removes her hand, he will suspect she is nervous from her sharp intake of breath and now that she feels his arms underneath her fingertips, she doesn't want to remove it.

When they reached his car, he gently pushed her to the passenger side and curve the car to the driver's side before hitting the road together with his guards. She pushed the button on the radio and it started blasting out the latest African song which was 'Soco by Wizkid' in spite of the fact that she hardly pays attention to African songs, she started bobbing her head to the song and imitate some artists she's seen in television and the guy that came to her wedding, Olamide to irritate Shaddad but he didn't even throw a single glance at her and kept driving whilst flexing his muscles.

Upon their arrival, the guards were there to open their doors which Falak isn't happy about, she wanted Shaddad to open her door or see whether he will open it for her like he did in the morning. Or he might be too mad to care about whether she gets down or not. She honestly don't know why he brought her back home when he could do whatever he wants to do in the office and no one will dare say something against it but no, he has to bring her back to the Palace in the middle of the day.

He opened the door and she walked in first before he followed her in and locked the door. She's standing right in front of him and when he pivoted, he almost bumped into her but moved back and narrowed his eyes at her because he could see the defiance in his eyes and the determination set on her face followed by the hands by her side in perfect akimbo style which irked him. He hates that she looks adorable trying to act mad when she should look ugly with red face and then he will be able to scold her without getting distracted. He needs his focus to put her in her place for what she did was unacceptable.

"Who gave you the right to drag me around the hospital? Do you think I'm a ragged doll that you can drag around when you feel like?" She fumed knowing she doesn't have the right to be mad but just want to see if he is going to retort and this will be their first fight, she hopes he would though.

She badly wants to see Shaddad looking a little mad knowing it is going to be a sight to behold because it is going to be sacred. Since Asad never succeeded in making Shaddad mad, then she knew it is something extremely colossal, immense and gigantic not something as petty as this. She is more than hundred percent sure that Asad has ever done something more terrible than this, this so should be small. She internally send her prayers to God wanting Shaddad to bellow in anger, she didn't forget to bite on her tongue this time around.

"And what were you thinking when you started painting across the walls? You think everything goes around as irresponsibly as your brain likes to portray them?" He fold his yummy looking muscles around his equally yummy strong chest and fixed his gaze on her like a father scolding his daughter and it kind of irked her that she jumped out of silly daydream about how sultry his voice sounds after releasing those long words.

Well, it is not her fault that her mind likes wandering to where it shouldn't be and always at the wrong time. He is never one to talk for long other than few words here and there so having him talk like this is messing with her brain.

"Well, at least I didn't try scaring those bundle of joy with Spiderman and Batman. How could you think drawing those things will bring them joy and not scare them away? Even I was scared when I saw that batman painted in black across our walls. It was so scary and imagine then seeing it at night." She huffed out a breath, clearly getting out of shape because how can just this conversation feels like she's been talking for years?

Maybe she should start following him to his early morning gym. But he wakes up early and she is never a morning person, never has and never will be.

"Couldn't you have stopped them and talk to me so we could solve everything out? Why is everything never easy with you and is always a struggle? I didn't sign up for this!" He huffed also, feeling like this is the longest he's ever gone with words and like he's talked for the next century.

"I also didn't sign up to arrange the loosing nuts in your head nor to stop the storm from thundering your brain. Even the stupidest person will get that Batman and Spiderman isn't for children. I don't know who is more foolish between the painters and you. They didn't search for any perfect animation like Paw Patrol, Sophia the First and the rest. How could they do this to us, they can't just betray us for Batman and Spiderm-" she didn't finish her words because she felt set of soft plump lips locking hers from moving.

He's been watching her mouth move around while she rambles on and when the conversation stirs, he decided to stop it with what he's been yearning to do since the last time they did it. This is just the perfect opportunity to claim those luscious lips and he can use her ramblings as excuse. Not that he needs an excuse to claim his wife but to avoid teasings coming from his wife, he'd better stop it before it arrives. She looks so adorable when her voice saddened at the thought of the children in the hospital seeing Batman and Spiderman.

Not knowing where the knowledge came from, he swiped his tongue around her lower lips before taking it between his lips to give it a gentle tug and the moan she released has him shivering and closing his eyes more tightly. He knew he shouldn't take it further so he gently moved back, letting go of her lips with a gentle sound that makes him almost deep down for more but he didn't, he can't.

"You are grounded!" His voice was extremely deep and husky when he said that which has her face contorting in a look of confusion trying to get out what he said to her and when she rewind and she played it back well, she started laughing hysterically and rose her head to talk back but he's started making his way to their room.

"As in, grounded? Are you talking about me being grounded?" She laughed nervously, standing right in front of him looking disheveled but beautiful.

"Yes, you won't be going to the hospital nor anywhere outside this Chamber." The words were quite and calm, and that only proves how serious he is about the grounded thing.

"You can't be serious. I'm your wife not your daughter or student." She rolled her eyes heavenward, immediately snapping something from within him and he draw her hastily to his hard chest knocking the breath out of her.

Her heart started beating very hard in a loud thud and her eyes widen when she saw his face leaning down. His lips look so peach at that moment and his eyes are filled with dominance and desire which she's never seen. He lean down his head and took her lips with his again.

This time around, the kiss was more passionate, dithyrambic and intoxicating. His hands traveled to her waist, flushing and aligning her body to his. He could feel each curve and contour of her soft body on his hard one. She also moved her hands to his neck, diving it down to make it easier for her to fight for dominance since he is taller than her. Her heart is beating billion times per minute and her mind is nowhere to be found whilst her brain has suddenly dematerialized.

The kiss is not anymore about the lips, they are comfortable enough to use the tongue and swipe it against each others before diving it deep. They are both tasting the last taste of tamarin juice in their mouths and didn't stop to think about breath till it was too late and they are both hyperventilating. Their breaths abandoned them but they didn't abandon each other, they are still wrapped in one another's arms.

"You are still grounded." He whispered, his forehead slightly lying atop hers while he continue to watch as her cheeks flush to the perks of red in amazement. He badly wants to ask why her skin flushes whenever he is close to her but this is not the time.

"But-" he cut her off with just glancing down at her and fixing his eyes into hers.

"For three days, more arguments will add additional one day." He breathed to her cheeks before swiftly opening the door to their room and walked in.

She almost forgot that she kissed him. He looks like a master when they were kissing each other and her heart almost dropped to her stomach thinking he's kissed another woman again but then another part of her told her that she doesn't have to worry about him with another woman, he still doesn't know how to talk to her properly, talk less of another woman other than her. She is sure no woman will be able to tame him like she does.

Shaddad's heart was beating rapidly and if not that he is a Cardiologist, he would've thought he was going to have heart arrest. He didn't know what has gotten into him and how he managed to pull out stunt like that but she is just irresistible. Not when she was fuming, not when her eyes yawed and let scorn twinkle in her eyes leaving only the sclerotic coat and the plumpness of her lips, that just did it. She looks sexy and he is just a male.

Plopping down on the bed after changing into a set of sweats, he was feeling bored because she made him leave hospital earlier than usual. Just as though she settled herself in his thoughts, she walked in with a remote and settle down on the bed next to him. She connected the huge curved Hisense television in their room to Netflix and browsed through it before settling on kinky as she was advised, Fifty Shades Of Grey.

She changed to her pajamas of cotton trousers and shirt and walked out. She tapped the play and moved closer to Shaddad, no words exchanged and he let a small smile when he saw her putting a popcorn between them. When did she do that, he doesn't know but he started eating when she offered. He can't believe how much she's softening him and making him feel human. He's always been perfect but with her, he could see the little flaws and imperfection pouring from tiny spores across his face. Perfection and imperfection meddled in the same place is giving a peculiar line.

Minutes into the movie, the kinky side of the movie started playing and Falak giggled when Shaddad nervously glance at her. The lights were turned off but she could still see him and noticed his expressions. He has nervousness and uneasiness dripping down his face. She moved closer to him and kept the popcorn to his laps, wrapping her hand around the arm that is close to her the rest her head on his muscular shoulder.

All Falak could say is, she liked how he uncomfortably kept moving around. Though he placed his whole attention to the movie, he was still uncomfortable and even she at some point closed her thigh and glance at him but didn't show him how he was affecting her. Her stomach will tighten and her heart will thud very loudly. And when the movie finished, he switched on the light in a record time and moved away from Falak then placed his head in between his palms as though he can't believe he watched that with her and she didn't even flinch. He was on the brink of doing something extra.

She only giggled some more and picked the empty bowl of popcorn and went back to cook food for them still thinking about the movie. Inaya suggested that she and Fikriya should watch the movie but she is regretting it. She warned her about it's kinkiness but didn't tell her it was this kinky, oh well, what is done is done.
