Nui sighed out of sheer relief; so many things had happened within a few days, and today was unusually hectic and eventful,her brain has overworked itself and she was also emotionally exhausted. Nui needed to sleep well and she wasn't ready for meeting the stranger with whom she got married today.
Nui decided not to unpack her luggage, she would be the happiest if Third Cinri disliked her from the very first moment and asked her to leave.
It was turning humid, Nui slipped out of her dress, took her rose bath oil and tea rose body wash and shampoo and then went into the bathroom. The cool water of the huge bathtub was extremely relaxing, and the intense smell of rose enveloped the room. For an instance, Nui remembered her rose garden back at her home.
Nui took her sweet time to take bath. She stepped out of the bath tub only to realise that she had forgotten to bring her clothes. Nui rubbed her forehead out of frustration. "Oh snap! what do I do now, I can't stay here forever. What do I do?" she cried out of exasperation.
Then she thought that no one was in the room, so she would go out and get her clothes by herself.
Nui's towel was completely wet, so she decided to take the other towel which was quite bigger in size and it smelled of a strong male Cologne. Nui was extremely reluctant about whether to open the door or not then she closed her eyes out of embarrassment and opened the door, she had just taken one step and "BLAM..." Nui's forehead hit against something, it was soft but yet firm, she was startled her foot slipped, and the next moment she was held by a pair of strong masculine arms.
Nui's eyes opened wide, and she saw the godly handsome face in front of her again, she remembered the face and even in that peculiar situation she couldn't help but blurt out, "YOU???"
Xian was stunned for a moment, he was usually calm and cold, but at this moment he looked a bit flustered, he was aware that this girl who was his wife now would arrive today, because, he was the one who had ordered to make the arrangements, and just after entering the room he found a small pink dress. But he didn't expect to have such an encounter with her. If it would have been any other woman Xian would have dropped her immediately and walked away coldly, as if nothing had happened. But, there was something about this girl Xian couldn't figure out what exactly, which attracted him like magnet. What surprised him the most was that, Xian, who was usually cold and distant, always felt tempted to tease this girl.
Till yesterday before he received the envelope from his father, he had thought that although his father had imposed this marriage on him he would ignore the existence of his wife completely, he wanted to torment the woman chosen by her father and avenge him, but when he saw the photograph he was in utter disbelief. He wanted to test that would he loose his self control again? or if what happened that day was just an accident. Xian loved to push his limits. He wanted to figure out, what is it about this girl which made her so irresistible even to a man like him?
Although he lifted her from her almost falling position, but he didn't release her from his embrace.
"Hello young lady.We meet again, should we call it fate?" Xian spoke in a deep, slightly hoarse voice, he looked amused looking at Nui's surprised expression now.
Nui was absolutely embarrassed, she wanted to dig a hole and escape.
This man is the Third Master Cinri! This man is her husband? He is same man who had notoriously kissed her at the club. Nui was so shocked that her tongue was frozen.
Xian looked at this delectable woman in his arms, her slender body which was barely covered with his towel,loosely wrapped revealing her firm breasts and a tempting cleavage. The water dripping from her freshly washed long hair left droplets on her open shoulder and neck. At this moment she was the goddess of temptation personified. What made her even more attractive was that she was oblivious to her charm. And her innocent eyes could hit someone really bad. Xian was tempted to lick all the water from her neck, and even that thought made heat climb up his body.
Xian avoided women and abhorred most of them, there were many women out there who wanted to seduce him, but no woman could arouse Xian ever, but this innocent little girl made him wild.
Nui's cheeks flushed and even her neck was red when she realised was just draped in a loosely wrapped towel, Instantly she held the towel firmly with her hands covering her breasts as much as possible, "What are you doing here?" her voice was hardly audible, Nui looked down.
Xian was extremely amused as if he had caught furry little rabbit, "If you remember young lady, this is my room. I think I should be the one to ask you this question, but now I really don't mind, you being here." Xian whispered to her ears, Nui realised her heart was beating insanely fast.
Xian raised her chin with his slender fingers, she smelt of roses which was extremely alluring, Nui wanted her heart beats to calm down, but it was out of her control, "Let... let me go please." Nui's fumbled, she found herself stammering, she pursed her lips out of extreme embarrassment, which was enticing, this amused Xian even more, and his desire to tease this little innocent rabbit intensified.
The towel had slipped from her back and his hand was now resting on her naked back, her wet skin had acquired a feather like softness. And before Xian could realise, he found himself stroking her back with his long fingers.
Her pores were sensitive after the shower, Xian's touch churned the desires inside her. On the other side Xian found found a strange heat rising within him and his hormones were galloping like stallions.
Nui's lips were trembling, she was burning from inside. Xian's initial plan was to tease her a bit then to let her go. But, he didn't realise that he would be seduced by this little girl instead.
Nui tried to step out of his domain and that very moment, Xian lifted her and gradually pushed her to the wall, paging her against the wall, he grabbed her chin and kissed her intensely, Nui tried to hold on to the towel desperately. She made her feeble protests which were naturally ignored.
A thousand drums were thumping inside Nui, and both lost their controls in the raging fire of passion. She started responding to his kiss gradually, a soft moan escaped from Nui and her lips parted a bit making him kiss her even deeper.
Nui was too young and inexperienced but her reciprocation was earnest. While the two people's minds and hearts haven't met each other, yet but their bodies were communicating in their own primitive language. After a long and intense kiss Xian released her, Nui's desperate attempt to hold the towel had failed miserably, she closed her eyes as she found it on the floor, instantly she tried covering her sensitive parts with her hands.
Xian's eyes were sharp and intensely darkened, looking at Nui now, he was fighting hard to restrain himself, he knew he was scaring this little girl.
"Scoundrel", Nui whispered as she bit her lips. She didn't know if she was just mad at him or mad at her untamed desires. A mischievous smile came on his face, as she picked up the towel and wrapped it around her, "impertinent words can be the most instigating, are you aware of that Ms. Saue? Oops! Mrs. Cinri."
Nui trembled in fear she didn't want another bestial experience with this man. Nui was crimson now, even though she had just taken a shower but now she is sweating again.
"And for your kind information, I am not a scoundrel, I am your legal husband. As per our contract we must live like husband and wife, which involves cohabitation and consummation. I hope you are aware of the contract?" Xian looked at Nui with penetrative gaze, she was intimidated, but this expression. Suddenly, Xian picked her up, "Put me down, please I can walk." Nui protested.
"I know, but, I don't think it would be wise for you to walk wearing that." Xian said simply, Nui understood the indication and closed her eyes. He took long strides and put her in the huge bed, then he glanced at her luggage and squinted his eyes. There was a faint knock at the door, Aunt Kicha, entered with a tray in her hand, and found Xian and Nui, she looked happy, somehow she felt relieved that the Third Master was getting along well with his wife. Nui instantly pulled the bed sheet on herself. Aunt Kicha kept the food on the table, "Third Master, I didn't realise you are back should I bring your dinner now?"
Xian didn't reply instantly, he pulled a drawer, took a file in his hand then as if he wasn't talking with anyone specifically he said, "I have work, so I won't be back till tomorrow morning." Having said that he left. Aunt Kicha looked at Nui and gave a meaningful smile, "Rest well madam, you must be tired."
Nui was in absolute shock. This hideously handsome man was such a rogue! She thought, she had come with a determination to make him dislike her instead she indulged into such an abashing encounter with him. Nui spoke to herself out of exasperation, "Ugh.. get a grip Nuinui, you can't let him bully you like this.You must find a way out."
