My Ambitious Bride (EDITED VERSION)

17. Night Of Secrets

Before going to his room, Akshad had to check with his father. He let Meera go with Mrs Sheetal. On the terrace Mr. Vimal was pacing restlessly. Akshad saw his father and went to him.

Mr. Vimal told Akshad the most important secret which was kept hidden for many years. When Akshad got to know the real reason behind this arranged marriage he felt broken inside and out.

"Akshad beta, now it is your duty to tell Meera about your birth and also tell her this secret. After this if Meera allows you to have intimate moments as husband, then only you should go close to her." Mr. Vimal stated firmly.

Akshad nodded his head in 'yes', he also did not want to start a marriage with lies. He bid good night to his father and went to his own room.

When Akshad entered the room, he saw that Meera was asleep on the couch. He went to the balcony and picked her up. He slowly brought her to bed and lowered her on the mattress. Deep in sleep, Meera tried to cuddle the pillow which was situated beside her head. Meera was wearing a saree hence while cuddling her waist got exposed.

Akshad felt tempted to touch her but he controlled his emotions and went to get a bath as he was sweating with all the rituals. When he came back wrapping a towel around his waist, he was shocked to see Meera standing beside the mirror combing her hair.

Earlier when Meera felt someone picking her up, she woke up from her sleep but pretended to be asleep. She felt awkward to confront him in this situation where she was so close to him.

When she heard shower water running, she quickly got up and texted Rupal

Start Chat -10:30pm

Meera: "Rup, You free?"

Rupal: "Di, What happened?"

Rupal quickly replied as she was bing watching bridgerton on netflix

Meera: "Nothing till now but Akshad went to take a shower. I wanted to ask something. Should I wear that thing we bought?"

She asked, blushing. Previous week these two went shopping and there Rupal insisted Meera buy a two piece lingerie set for her first time.

Rupal: "Ofcourse di. Be quick and let your hair down, it will look sexy that way. I bet Jijaji (brother-in-law) will be pleased to see you like that."

Meera: "Okie, thanks a lot Rup. Good Night"

Rupal: "Night di, but you don't sleep and tell me all about it later."

End Chat 10:45pm

Reading the last message Meera planned to scold her naughty cousin afterwards. She opened her suitcase and took out the two piece nightdress.

She went into the closet and wore it. The green colored nighty had a sleeveless tube top which barely covered her stomach and shoulders, bosom peeking out of her top. Lower half was a high slit skirt and her back was all bare for anyone to lust on.

Overall Meera looked like a 'Bomb'. She let her hair down, removed her makeup and applied a slight blush on her cheeks and pink lipstick on her lips.

Then she went to the vanity table and started untangling her hair. Akshad saw her and went to her. He leaned in and spoke as he was nuzzling in her neck, "You look ravishing".

Meera turned around seductively, "Really?" she asked, blushing. Akshad's eyes roamed from her neck to her very revealing bosom, then to her slim waist roaming down to her thighs which were peeking out of the slit of her skirt and finally back to her eyes.

Meera instantly felt warmth spreading in her by the look he gave her. Akshad's phone rang and they got out of the trance. Blushing, Akshad apologized and went to the balcony to take the call.
