《A Normal Marriage》Chapter 40

What makes a journey worthwhile?
A good companion.
Anisha had undoubtedly a very good companion but the journey to where was a question.
Abhimanyu had outright refused to tell her the destination claiming she would find out for herself. Begrudgingly she had packed the bags and soon they were off to the airport.
As they entered the airport Abhimanyu guided her to the check in counter of flights going to Italy.
Italy!
Her mouth fell open and she chuckled. Abhimanyu who was silently observing her reaction wore a proud smile on his face.
She turned around with excitement evident on her face and asked him, " Abhi, Italy?"
He nodded.
She grinned enthusiastically at him and hugged the life out of him.
" Thank you so so so so so so much! I always wanted to go to Italy!" Her excitement laced tone exclaimed.
He grinned, proud, his guess had been right.
Anisha smiled.
They checked in soon and were resting in the lounge. Abhimanyu reading a newspaper and Anisha had her head leaned on his shoulder reading the newspaper along with him.
After a while they were done reading the newspaper and she was still leaning on his shoulder. His free hand now running in her hair, playing with the long tresses.
" What are you thinking?" He asked.
" About how life will change after the results. I mean, I always thought about giving entrance and then doing law and marriage was a later prospect for me. But then things have changed and now for the last six months I only thought about clearing the entrance, never about what next."
He sighed, " That's quite a lot you have thought about."
She gave him a watery smile.
" I guess after the results what you do next is join a college and focus on graduating." He rubbed his chin with his free hand.

" Abhimanyu, that's quite obvious right!"
He chuckled, " So what is there to think about. You join the college and focus on graduating."
" Uhh!" She was frustrated.
" Anu...your job is to graduate without any worries. Whatever is bothersome we will deal with it together."
She melted at his words. " But Abhi, what about kids and family? I graduate after three years and till then no kids? And even if we don't have kids then, what about when I start my career and then we plan kids? This is all so frustrating to think about!" She told him all her worries.
" First of all, tell me from where did this question of kids come from?" He prodded.
" I... Abhimanyu, don't you want kids and family? I had read that a female produces the best ovas till thirty-two. After that the pregnancy is complicated."
" Oh. So madam has done some research." He teased.
" Abhimanyu! Stop teasing me, okay?" She rebuked.
" Anu, listen okay. We will plan a kid soon when the time is right and you are ready. Are you ready now?"
" No! I am still young and then results and everything..." She trailed off realising what he was doing. " Abhimanyu!"
He raised his hands in the air claiming innocence. " Look you just said you are young and as far as I know you are just twenty-two. Still ten more years for thirty-two."
She nodded.
" And if you so desperately want kids we can try. But what I feel is we need time. We have grown as companions but the love is still unexplored. To top it all you have college, I have my career which has just kicked so high. Now I am not ready. A year or two later, we would be in better position and then maybe we could bring in a new member."

She looked into his eyes. " Abhi, how is the love unexplored?"
" Anu, we have concentrated on that entrance for the last six months and the first six months we gave each other space to adapt. Our love is vulnerable at present. I want us to grow stronger and lay foundation of our marriage in this one year."
She hugged him tight nuzzling into her favourite spot on his neck, near the bobbing Adam's apple.
" For somebody who claims to say that he doesn't think much into future. You sure made quite an impression." Her breath fanned his neck and he had to close his eyes shut to control.
She looked up on not recieving any response and found him with closed eyes. " Why are your eyes closed?"
" Umm" he opened his eyes and gulped. Now how will he explain?
" Nevermind, let's enjoy the hug. It's about time they start boarding." She shrugged.
He chuckled and enclosed her in his arms.
Like she said, after a few minutes the boarding started and they were aboard a flight to Venice.
Anisha sat on the window seat and Abhimanyu happily sat beside her. She excitedly watching Mumbai from her tiny window and Abhimanyu amused at her.
" You seem quite excited?"
" Oh I love travelling!" She smiled.
" Even in planes?"
She nodded, " The take-off and landings are the best part, giving you glimpses of how tiny yet vast our world is."
He smiled.
Once in the air, he took his laptop out and opened it but she quickly shut it down. He frowned and looked at her, " No work for the next fifteen days!"
His eyes widened, " What will I do on the flight for so long?"
" The same that I will do. Watch movies and enjoy my company." She replied haughtily.
" Anu, just in the flight and I promise after that no work."
She begrudgingly nodded. " Promise, no work for fifteen days after this."
" Promise."
She surfed the flight's movie collection and settled on a light romcom while her husband sat doing his work.
Venice, here we come.

The Attack of the Wastrel
Her rebirth gave her a second chance at life. She was back with a vengeance and wanted to make those that had harmed her pay. But to those that helped her, she wanted to repay them. Her evil stepmother? She would slowly pull out her claws, one by one. Her evil stepsister? She would crush her pride. She thought that by getting her revenge for her past life, she would be happy in this life. However, she never would have thought that danger would chance upon her time and time again. The hatred from her clan and whether their bloodline would continue to exist, lay solely on her shoulders. Luckily, on this thorny path, someone had always been protecting her. "Third Prince, have you ever regretted being with me?" That person laughed lightly and peered at her with a loving yet weary look, "As long as I am together with you, I have no regrets."

"Who is allowed to be your bully?"he whispered as if asking her to reveal a secret between both of them."You are m-my bully?" Rose said more or less confirming the answer.She tilted her head slightly, a pout morphing on her face as she looked at the male who caused the world population to scatter away in fear."And you have to do whatever I say." Rose scrunched her nose in confusion, knowing Ares since they were children.She had always known that she had to do a task if he commands her to, but why was he repeating this infront of the whole school?"Come here." he motioned the chocolate eyed girl closer to him, his hands gently smoothing down her blue skirt which was ruffled."Bow down your head Rose." as soon as the girl tilted her head down, her jet black hair shining in sunlight as she adorably fiddled with the golden button on his coat, soft kisses rained down her head decorated in a braid.Gasps were heard all around.And it was the claim enough, declaring to the world that to whom the innocent girl belonged toARES.Book 2 devil's vow Standalone**NO TOXIC RELATIONSHIP*

8 191The Reincarnated Heroine Runs from the Plot
If you were to be reincarnated as the heroine of an otome game, what would you do?If it was me… I would be too embarrassed! Knowing the romantic stuff that is going to happen to you is seriously too embarrassing! But, thinking again, I would be a completely different person from the original heroine so unless I was good actor, even if I trigger an event, it wouldn’t go as in the game. Really, the heroine is many times so naive, how could a corrupted girl like me pretend to be like that? If I could act… aaah nononono my face is flushing already…With such circular thoughts I stand at the door of the magical academy.Having reincarnated as the heroine of the otome game ‘Captive Hearts ~for you only~’ I interact with troublesome ladies, unnamed characters and the dreadful capture characters, all the while avoiding flags and worrying about the lack of adult material on libraries.“She is so innocent. I must protect her!”…What?

Seems pointless right? Trying to outrun a wolf. Well you would be correct in thinking that. It was pointless, it wasn't long before I was pulled back into a warm hard chest. The smell so intoxicating making me feel weak. "Why run mi amor" his voice is low and husky.
