"I bet you don't remember anything from our wedding," The familiar deep velvety voice whispered above my ear from behind. His breath tickled my skin, raising the hair on my neck.

"Nah, I was grieving with the thought that I was marrying a grandpa," I replied after clicking my tongue and looking over my shoulder at my handsome husband. Viaan looked down with a mischievous smile.

"You made that very clear on our first night."

I couldn't help but laugh at the memory of that night. Especially the expression he had worn due to my outburst.

"Should I be apologizing for it now?" I let a smirk take over my lips and witnessed the darkening of his eyes.

"I wouldn't mind it, if you deliver it in the form I personally prefer," stepping in closer, he whispered huskily.

My breath turned ragged as my eyes fluctuated from his eyes to his lips, "and that would be?"

He leaned even closer, letting his breath tease my skin, "why don't we head back home to discuss more of it?"

I couldn't help but gulp at his antics. The mischievous spark in his eyes caused butterflies not just to flutter but soar in my stomach. His hand slipped through mine making it difficult to speak, "Um..."

"Shall we?"

Would Anjali be angry if I ditched her wedding now and head back home with my husband?

I looked at the bride who was occupied with the rituals and turned to face my awaiting husband.

Damn... Can't resist him if he looked at me like that.

Especially, when he looked like an angel ready to take a flight.

Anjali, please forgive me.

I turned to tell him that we better get out of here before Anjali or someone else called for us. But before I could even utter a word, Viaan's phone went off.

Blinking out of the haze, Viaan picked his phone up and answered the call, "hello?"

"Yeah, she's here with me. I'll give it to her." He passed the phone over to me causing my eyebrows to quirk in question.

"Your mom wants to talk to you," He explained.

Taking the phone from him, I answered, "Yes Ma?"

"Where are you? I have been searching for you for some time now!" Was the first thing that she nagged.

"I'm by themandap. Why? Is anything the matter?" I looked up to find Luv calling out for Viaan. Viaan gently squeezed my arm before heading over to where Luv and other people stood in a small circle.

"Nothing, it's nothing. Just be around where you are, I'll find you in a few," My mom ended the call making me think 'few' what? Minutes? Hours? What? She always tends to do that. She would say 'in a few' and make a person wait for hours when minutes were expected. And she would appear out of thin air when hours were considered.

I hadn't finished contemplating my mom's unfinished statement when Viaan's phone went off again.

Carlos calling...

Now who was this?

I looked at Viaan to find him busy discussing something with Luv and others. Should I be disturbing them? But what if the call was important?

How about I pick it up, get the information and pass it on to Viaan later?

Reluctantly, I answered the call to hear, "Good afternoon, sir. This is Carlos Penham from Oxford. Your ward, Ritika Kundra's performance analysis is out and she has performed well. I have forwarded you the analysis report for your reference as you had requested. Worth being her sponsor, I'll admit."

I couldn't help but watch Viaan who was smiling at something that Luv said and turned to look at me. Saying something, he started to make his way back to me.
