Bound by Vows novel Chapter 39

Is she here for seducing anyone...i hope my husband is not in the list.

Uff!!! Where this came from?

But this is an office for god sake...so should be dressed professionally instead of looking like a slut.

"I am going inside." I said even though i didn't wanted to answer her.

"I can see that but you're not allowed to" She said with an attitude

"And who are you to tell me whether i am allowed or not?" I asked her

"I am Lisa, Kabir's personal secretary. And i know he doesn't have any appointment with anyone. So get back from where you've come" she said with a smirk.

Personal Secretary? Since when people started calling their bosses with their first name.

Kabir entertains these types of employees who doesn't have an etiquette to talk with guests? Like seriously? I am disappointed

I ignored her smirk and started walking ahead but maybe she doesn't like it as she pulled me back holding my arm.

"What the hell? I am telling you you're not allowed to go then who the hell are you to disobey me?" She shouted.

Luckily noone is here on this floor as i don't want people to watch this drama.

"I would ask you the same...who the hell are you to stop me?" I asked her...

Though its not in my nature to argue with these types of people. But i am also not one of them to stay quiet and listen to these craps.

I again walked ahead but this time she put her foot infront of me. Next minute i knew i am going to kiss the ground.

But its like deja vu that out of nowhere Kabir came to my rescue. I fall straight into his arms.

"Are you okay?" He asked with full of concern.

Just to show this girl her position, i wrapped my arms around Kabir and hide my face in his chest.

He got stiffened with this act of mine.

"Sir, this lady was trying to enter your office without my permission" she said while i was shocked at what she thought of herself.

"Is it?" He asked while i moved aside from his hug.

"Yes sir, i even told her politely that you're not allowed as sir might be busy and she didn't had any appointment with you" she said

Polite? My foot.

"But lisa she doesn't need your permission to meet her husband" he said while i smiled at this.

"Husband??" She asked with her eyes shocked and widened.

"Yes husband, i am Mrs Payal Kabir Khurana." I said with a smirk.

Her face expression are worth to watch...its like someone pour cold water on it

"Lets go, we're getting late" Kabir said while i followed him.

I waved to pooja once reached ground floor. She smiled shyly

Kabir’s POV

"Payal, i am glad you came" That man hugged her as soon as we reached his house.

Man, keep your hands off her

"Ofcourse i had to after all you're my old buddy" She said returning the hug

Yeah, Old buddies and close too.

"Hello Mr. Khurana" Danush greet me after detaching her from his hug which i really appreciate.

"Hello" i said formally shaking hands

Soon a girl around payal's age came and hugged her

"Hey Payal, long time no see...how are you? I have been eagerly waiting to meet you since the time danush told me about you" she shouted while i cringe at her loud pitch.

"Ramya, she just came and you started your questions?" Danush said while i wonder who is she?

His girlfriend or sister maybe?

"Hii ramya, i am good. You tell me how come you got married to this monkey?" Payal asked her while i got relieved for the reason i am unaware of

"Atleast don't call me monkey in front of my wife" Danush said making faces while payal show her tongue to him

Very childish act!!!

"Is this your Sugar Payal?" Ramya asked referring to me while i got confused

Sugar?? Who is he???

"Ramyaa..." Danush tried to stop his wife

I looked towards Payal, smile which was there on her face few seconds before dropped immediately

"No, he is Kabir...my husband" she said with a straight face.

"Ohh" she said dramatically.

"Please come in" danush said trying to divert the topic

We walked inside the living room where around 6-7 ppl were already present

Most of them exchanged hugs with Payal as they were her college mates

And here i am getting bored to be honest if it was not for that guy i would never had attended this party

Once standing alone with her in the corner, i thought to ask her about sugar but soon a girl wearing slutty dress came to me.

Payal's POV

"Hi Kabir, how are you and what are you doing here in this party?" A girl whom I don't know asked kabir

"Who are you?" He asked in his signature attitude

"Remember, hotel gracia room no. 546" she said while my eyes got widened with it

Don’t tell me she is his ex or worse his mistress

I looked towards kabir who was already looking at me.

"Why don't we reminisce old time? What say?" She said while i made a face

Yuck...i never knew he would be doing all this behind my back...i thought... never mind...what else i can expect from him

"I shall leave you both alone so that you can remind your old good times" i said with a force smile while gritting my teeth

"No..." Kabir tried to say something but i ignored and walked to danush.

"Hey danush, can you please guide me where is washroom?" I asked her

"Yeah sure, lets go" he said and started moving upstairs

I followed him like a lost puppy

"I am sorry Payal" he apologized out of the blue

"Huh?? Y??" I asked feeling confused

"From ramya's side...she is very talkative...never think before speaking... she didn't knew that he is your husband not your sugar. Actually i always talked about you both how you were inseparable, so she thought...but i...i am" he explained making me remember my old days.

Those were the best days of my life but everything changed 3 years back

"Its ok...okay…not her mistake" i said though it made me sad thinking about him.

"But will you tell me what has happened to Avi...why you guys are not together? Where is he now? Does he know you got married to kabir??" He shoot his questions making my eyes in tears

"No...he doesn't know anything about my marriage with Kabir" i said suppressing my sobbing

I composed myself and told him everything

"Oh god, you have faced soo much...i never got to know anything about you guys" he said sadly

"Yes, but since i got married i am trying to get over my past...i have a beautiful family now for whom i want to leave my past behind" i said with a small smile while wiping my tears thinking about my new family

"Hmm... that's great...but in my opinion you could talk to him once" he said while i know to whom he is referring

"How can i? It was my mistake...i broke his trust...he will never accept me again" i said sadly

"No...it was not your mistake...it was the doing of that ex-fiancé of yours" he said with gritting teeth

That akhil ruined mine as well life of my dear ones also. But this time i will not let him ruin my relationship with this family

"We will talk lateron and yes here is the washroom" he said once we reached in front of a door.

"Thank you" i said and enter into it...

When i reached downstairs, that girl still there clinging to his arms which boiled my anger

I walked towards my college friends rita and sat beside her on sofa

He can go to hell as if i care

"I must say you got a very handsome husband Payal" Rita said sitting beside me

"Yeah and womanizer too" i muttered eyeing both of them

That girl is laughing when he said something in her ears

"Huhh?? You said something?" Rita said beside me

"Nothing...you tell what’s going on?" I asked her

"Deadly busy in my job and my mom is behind me to get married" she said annoyingly

"Ohh...are you not ready to get married?" I asked her.

"Oh payal, you know na i don't believe in these shits" she said dramatically.

Well i know she is totally against marriage concept since our college days

"Hmm" i said

"Payal, why your husband is busy chatting with that girl instead of being with you" she said while my anger rose

"Ohh...she is an old friend...so" i lied to her

"Ohh...but you take care... I don't know why but i am not liking her advances" she said eyeing them

Ohh kabir, i so want to kill you for embarrassing me in front of my friends... can't you keep your affairs private

"Guys, we are going to play games as we are getting quite bore with the simple party" ramya announced while everyone cheered.

"Okay, the game is dancing with your partner" ramya said

"Ohh, its easy..." One girl said

"Naa, its not that easy...its a paper dance...you will be dancing on a newspaper and with every round, paper will be folded. Okay, now lets start" danush said

Everyone stood with her partner while i looked towards mine whom that bitch was trying to drag

"Comeon Payal, come here...stand with your husband" ramya said

"Oh no, i am not interested in these games" i said eyeing kabir who was already looking at me

"No you have to play, don't be a spoilsport" ramya whining said

"Leave her na ramya, i will become partner of Kabir if she doesn't want to play" that bitch interfered immediately which angered me more

Oh hello, i am his wife, so keep your hands to yourself...i wanted to shout this at her face but refrained myself because i am hurt with his behaviour...why he is behaving like this...we were fine till we reach here!!!

"No way, she is there then why will you pair with him tiya" ramya denied

"Lets go payal..." Ramya dragged me beside him

Soon game started, there are total 4 couples

We step on the paper with a little distance with us

Soon song started

He touched my waist and i keep my hands on his shoulder

I looked down as i have no interest to look into his eyes but i can feel his stare on me

"Are you on your periods?" He asked me this question making me to raise my head only to see his mischievous eyes dancing

"Huhhh??" I asked with shocked expression coz i never expected this kind of question from him.

"Are you on your periods?" He asked again closing his lips near my ears

"Noo...and i heard it first time too" i said while a red shade of blush can be seen on my face

"Then what's with your mood swing?" He asked which angered me.

His words remind me that i am angry with him

"Why are you he-" i stopped in between as music stopped

I didn't realised that we were dancing all time

"Okay guys, fold your paper into half" danush instructs us

"So, what were you saying?" He asked me as soon as music started

This time we are more closer than before

"Why are you here? Go dance with your ___ buddy" i said in anger stepping on his foot.

"Ouch!!! What's that? And ____ like seriously? Can't you say the word?" He said with a smirk

Uff!!! I hate this

"Fine...your fuck buddy" i said in his ears

Again music stopped and now only 2 couples left

This time paper folded again into small one and we both cannot step on it.

I thought to convey everyone that we are backing out from game but it didn't happened

He picked me up in his arms in bridal style making me scream but that did go unnoticed due to music.

I round my hands around his neck...his one hand was near my bosom creating sensation in my body which i was trying to ignore.

"Something is burning i guess" he said teasingly

But i am in no mood to joke around

"True but i would say its someone not something" i paused only to see his smirk wider

"So you admit that you're jealous" he said tighting his hold on my body

"Yes i admit someone is jealous. But its not me, you can see her at your right" i said pointing at that bitch

He looked there and chuckled

"She is just an old friend...nothing more" he said

"Put me down" i whispered in anger

"What?" He asked dumbly

"Put me down right now Mr. Khurana" i said wiggling out of his arms

Instead of loosing he hold me more tightly making me more annoyed than before

I dig my nails on his neck making him loosen the grip. Soon i jump out of his arms making me loosing my balance but he hold me

I so wanted to push him but presence of others stopped me

"Oh no Payal, you guys were about to win... Then why did you suddenly jump out of his arms?" Rita said suddenly

"You know i was not able to bear her weight for so long" kabir instead of me answered.

Everyone laughed at this while i glared him.

Soon party came to an end after dinner and little chitchat.

I didn't talked to him during our whole drive back to home... As soon as car halt, i stepped out of the car.

After checking aashi for once who was peacefully sleeping in her bed...i walked to our room.

I didn't found him, maybe in washroom... i locked the closet door and searched for my pyjamas but my eyes fall on another thing.

I smirked and pick out that to wear it.

He mocked me in party by calling me heavy, now lets see how he will resist this beauty infront of him.
