Her Second-Hand Husband! novel Chapter 41

Anika’s PoV

The next morning, I was too eager to see Arjun. It has been two full days since I last saw him or talked to him. Aunty said he will be here early in the morning. Sleep went far away as the excitement came hugging me. I was wide awake when I heard the door creak open. I jumped up and sat on the bed to see him. He came in sneakily and I sneakily got down and advanced on him.

“Arjun, I missed you so much!” I jumped on him, hugging his neck.

“You didn’t sleep?” He asked me, freeing him from my hands.

“No, were you so busy that you couldn't even attend my calls? I really missed you so much, Arjun.” I whined, still clinging onto his neck. He hugged me by my waist and lifted me to meet his eyes.

“You missed me?” He asked me, looking me in the eye that sends chills down my spine. His eyes on me make tingles in my stomach.

“Yes!” I said but just air escaped my mouth.

“Right! Are you ready now?” He asked me and I buried my face in his neck.

“Just ready. Actually I had a three days girl’s problem that has just got over.” I told him, swallowing that ball of something in my throat.

“Perfect.” He let me down and switched the lights on. He settled himself on the bed and made me stand in front of him.

“Strip!” He said coldly that made my stomach knot in fear.

“Arjun?” I asked him unsure of what I heard.

“You missed me and are ready to make love to me, right?” He asked me with a platonic voice. Priya was right, you could never tell his mood by his looks.

“Arjun, are you alright?” I asked him, stepping closer to him.

“I am perfectly alright. I missed you too. Let's do this now. Strip.” He said tracing my body with his lust dipped eyes.

“Arjun…” I tried to talk but I could not form any words. My womanhood was drenched with anticipation and my hands automatically went to unbutton my shirt. His cold voice excites me more than he could imagine. He wants me to be submissive and I am ok with it.

“Faster!” He growled. I dropped the shirt down and stood there in front of him with my black bra and pajama pants that covered my ankle. His eyes raked my features from top to bottom and his eyes turned to a darker shade filled with desire. I gulped down the uncomfortable feeling and looked down.

“Now your pants!” He said making himself comfortable on the bed.

“Arjun!” I tried to move towards him as I felt shy to do so.

“Come on, I don't have all day.” He said.

His authoritative voice feared me and I did what he asked me to. Now I was standing in front of him with just my underwear and his eyes never left my body. I tried to cover myself with my hands and he asked me to drop my hands to the side. I never looked up as I could not meet his eyes.

“You are so beautiful, Anika. I could see you like this for hours. What do you think about love? Having sex or more than that?” He asked me. All my excitement went into the drain and that place was filled with fear and distress. He is clearly not alright. He is not the same Arjun that kissed me like there's no tomorrow. He is someone else. What happened to him?

“Not just sex, Arjun. Love is a longingness, a feeling to spend every second in your embrace. A feeling that controls the time. Like these two days felt like two years for me. What happened to you Arjun?” I asked, walking to him.

“Nothing! Get dressed.” He tried to turn away from me.
