His Innocent Wife

49. Mr. Protective

Sanaya's breathe turned shallow as their eyes met.
His eyes were dark with desire and Sanaya barely noticed those charcoal orbs and her breath hitched.

"Abhimanyu." She whispered igniting the fire in the burning oil
"Hmm." He hummed and she felt the vibration in her chest as they were soo close while he buried his face in the crook of her neck and his breathe turned heavier

"We should go back home, Mrs. Rathore." Abhimanyu whispered as she kept quiet and that was enough for him to understand that, she didn't wanted him to go further. Not now.
"No." She said

"We are not going anywhere. It is too late." She added firmly but her voice was shaking and he sighed before picking her up in his arms

"I am just agreeing because you ordered. I am not a 'your wish us my command,' guy." He joked which managed to make her giggle

"That's why you bought me icecream when I wished to have it?" Sanaya wrapped her arms around his neck while her eyebrows raised

"You forced me to do it." He scoffed and she gulped down the lump forming in her throat.
'Don't cry. Don't cry. Do not cry. DO NOT CRY!' She kept reminding herself when a tear already slipped from her eye.

"Sanaya what room you live in?" He questioned and she just pointed at her room as she didn't trusted her voice

"Why are you crying?" He questioned while she just unlocked the door and he stepped inn

"I do not cry." Sanaya stated proudly keeping her forehead on his shoulder
"Sure, you don't." Sarcasm was evident in his voice as he placed her on the bed, soo gently that she pictured herself melting

"Sanaya, I am seriously not into making you or looking at you, cry." He whispered as he wiped off her tears while he hovered her covering her upper body and his body weight rested on his elbows

"I was just wondering how good maa bought you brothers up." Sanaya whispered holding his face in her hands and he smiled before pressing a kiss on her palm

"And I wonder, how well you raised yourself in the environment your parents created, specifically around you." He stated back and Sanaya smiled out loud and he pecked her lips before settling beside her, just like they do.

Abhimanyu took her in his arms and she buried her face in his chest while sleep was fast enough to consume her in less than thirty minutes.

Abhimanyu was the one to lie there having her safe in his arms still trying to process how did she even came out that jolly after what she suffered.

He never judged her, they were not his morals, and he also knew that he wouldn't hesitate beating the shit out Vaibhav if he saw him around her, in the radar of 2 meters

He knew that Vaibhav was a thick headed man to get his lesson yet and he was not coming in between them ever again.

Abhimanyu glanced at Sanaya, who's face was tear stricken and she nowhere looked peaceful which eventually unlocked a fear in him about her having a panic attack in the middle of the night and then the scenes of certain nights back could replay itself.

He caressed her hair before tightening his hold on her and she pressed herself more into him.

Abhimanyu smiled before he turned onn the table lamp for her just in case she woke up after a nightmare, she shouldn't meet dark. She fear it and he knew it, well.

He actually did found it hard to sleep for more time than necessary but finally sleep consumed him.
