Chapter47 ~ The kiss of commitment

Sultan POV
"Taqdir me na jaane kitne gam likhe the...
Jo bhi likhe the has kar jee gaye hum,
Hasi si aati hai fun ae khatib-e-taqdir pe...
Mehlo me chale or mitti me fana ho gae hum,"
I read my thought aloud enough to make her audible while we both walked towards that cottage.
She lifted her gaze from the grassland to me and smiled.
"Can I say something?"
"Of course,"
I insisted.
"Vo jindagi kya jindagi jisme maut ka khauf na ho,
Vo bandgi kya bandgi jisme bichode ka dard na ho,
Vo mohobbat kya mohobbat jisme parwane ki maut na ho,
Or vo taqdir kya taqdir jisme har sukh dukh ki chot na ho,"
"Bhot khoob"
"Amazing,"
This truly was.
I didn't know if I made a right decision or not bringing her here, because she was habitual of palace, attendees and moreover much more safe there.
But, I couldn't deny the fact that Badi Ammi would have done something to her if she stayed there.
At last, everything happened was good and bound to happen.
I looked at the entrance of cottage, it was kind of a not so big hut made of woods and dry grass. I pushed the door open and it created a screeching sound. It had a different kind of smell and feeling. I could smell the rain and cold there. It was slightly dark as I walked in. The fresh sunlight rays entered with me and made it visible. It was small and didn't have anything inside.
She entered behind me and we both kept our clothes in a corner.
"I think, we need to clean it first"
I diverted my gaze to her and she figured it out.
I nodded in acceptance and said.
"Let's begin then,"
"Sultan, This is something new to me"
She smiled.
"Staying in a hut is also new to me too,"
"No, I mean cleaning"
She laughed.
I didn't know why I was too much surrounded by the fact that we were going to stay alone.
Well, initially I thought that I would come alone and focus on the upcoming war but since she came with me I had to be careful and keep on doing my training.
I took out my sword from the bunch of clothes and kept it aside. A warrior should always be ready for anything.
I looked at her as she fixed her duppatta in a way that won't bother her much.
There was dust and a little of garbage in the cottage. We both looked at each other accepting that challenge moved ahead.
She focused on dusting and cleaning the cottage and I picked up all the garbage to throw outside. Starting with the windows, then floor then leftover we cleaned it a lot in a good time.
She took a long breathe once finished and sat on the floor.
"Tired?"
"A little,"
I chuckled.
"Weak Begum,"
I commented and she stood up in a hurry.
"No, I am not weak"
"You are,"
I crossed my arms over my chest to see her eyes fueling with rage and anger as I confirmed it.
She walked forward and spatted.
"Let's do arm wrestling then, everything will be clear"
She challenged and I laughed.
"You aren't joking, right?"
"I am not,"
She sat immediately crossing her legs and I found it funny.
"Sit here,"
She ordered.
I smiled and sat in front of her. She bent forward and placed her elbow on the mud floor and challenging me with her eyes.
I placed my elbow too on the floor accepting the challenge and she entwined our fingers and took a long and deep breathe initiating the fight.
All I had to do was to do nothing when she was struggling to push my arm aside on the floor. She looked enthusiastic in starting but in some time looked exhausted. She placed her other too and tried to use full body weight to push my arm aside but couldn't.
I was too amazed with the expressions of her. Suddenly, when she notices that I was staring at her for too long, our eyes met.
She softened her eager expression and racing heart beats. I didn't know why I was attracted to her that way as if it was written in our destiny to meet each other.
When I proposed for the wedding in her empire. I didn't have any idea who was she. All I knew was that King had a daughter and that was enough for me. I didn't know that King's daughter would change my mindset to the extent that I would start doubting as if I want the Hind or not, anymore.
Slowly, she shifted forward with her slightly glowing eyes as if wanted to do something and hesitant equally. Her face looks bigger as she leans forward, to the extent that I started feeling warm and distracted.
She forced her lashes close slowly and I felt her soft lips slightly away from lips on the cheek. Once, twice, thrice she brushed my cheek with her lip and my lashes closed only to feel her.
It was mesmerizing how her lips was feeling so soft yet effective enough to make a slight shiver ran in me.
Suddenly, I lost.
"Yayyyyyyyyyyy!!!"
She screamed and I came into my senses to realize what just happened. My hand touching the ground as if I lost in the arm wrestling.
She cheated me.
"You cheated me,"
"The way doesn't matter, the result do. I won that means I am strong,"
She was dancing with happiness and I quickly stood up.
I held her wrist and pulled her closer to me only to make her look into my eyes.
"The way does matter, after all at the end you are answerable to yourself."
Her expression changed from happiness to seriousness and she consoled.
"Sultan, I am joking"
I smiled slightly and made her realize.
"You are dirty,"
I leaned in to her ear and teased.
"You need to be cleaned before I make you realise that I am strong,"
Her cheeks turned red instantly and she muttered.
"Um-m-mm, How am I suppose to take bath?"
"Come with me,"
I requested and she nodded.
I walked outside of cottage and she followed me.
"There,"
I signalled with my finger toward the waterfall and she looked at me with big eyes.
"No,"
"Yes,"
"Noo, this is open area"
"Yes, you have better option?"
She looked around and asked.
"What if someone sees us?"
"Leave that on me,"
I assured and smiled from deep down.
I walked towards the waterfall and she followed me.
I looked around and no one was there. It was the least populated area and best to hide.
I walked into the small pond made because of waterfall. The water seems normal because of sunlight and not very deep.
I walked more into the pond and removed my kurta.
I threw it to her and she catched it to keep aside.
"Come in,"
I insisted.
She carefully took a step inside pulling her dress slightly up.
Looking at her speed, I walked to her and held her wrist. I guided her to the way close to waterfall.
"It's cold,"
"Better not catch cold,"
I warned and we both walked into the slight deep part close to the waterfall.
I looked at her when I stood below the waterfall. The pressure was strong as it was hurting my head. The cold water passes through my skin making me feel refresh and energetic all again.
She giggled looking at me and I caught her staring at me.
I forwarded my hand and she timidly took it carefully looking around.
She turned her head backward to see as if anyone watching us or not.
I quickly pulled her closer and snaked her waist tightly. She caught offguard as the she got wet in a single moment.
I looked at her as the water fall over her head. Her clothes became slightly translucent sticking to her body. Her huge bun left open and I got amazed again with their length.
Her skin was glowing under water and sunlight and for a few moments I forgot that the water was hitting my head.
Suddenly, she was about to slip and I held her tightly even more. With the effect she snaked her arms around my waist to balance.
I didn't know why a sudden urge of touching her cheek erupted in me. I feathered her cheek lightly and she shivered a little lifting her faze to me, which was hard to do because of water pressure.
I turned her slightly making her stand under waterfall and I moved my face out. She bent her face slightly back and I looked at her gentle face all wet of water. The running water droplets passing down her head, cheeks, neck and body was doing some kind of torture to me.
I could clearly see her neck and then once again I noticed her slightly visible marks. They were light than before.
While my eyes was staring at her, my sight fell on her figure that was clearly noticeable. I instantly moved my gaze to her face.
She laughed and threw some water on my face. Her lips turned pink and wet. I leaned in closer to her bringing her face out of water, cupping her neck and aligning her lips closer to mine.
She blinked nervously and begged with eyes not to do it here. But, I wanted.
I placed my lips on her slowly closing my eyes and my other hand unknowingly raked to snake her waist seductively.
I pecked her lips and waited for any objection but nothing came. I placed my lips again on her sucking the lower one.
She hugged me tightly responding to it. Her lips played with mine back as I sucked her. My hand itself went in the locks of her hair grabbing them unknowingly lightly, not to make her wince in pain.
I continued sucking her lips slowly in starting and deepening it later. While she tried to give back the equal pleasure.
Slowly, I slowed down only to realise that her hands cupped my cheeks softly and stood on her toes to reach my lips comfortably continuing the pace.
I smiled and pulled her up tightly, she snaked her arms around my neck and shifted to my upper lip. Taking the skin between her lips she sucked lightly making me forget everything.
Slowly, she moved forward to my cheek and kissed deeply. She made a sweet trail of kisses to my ear and said something that added a few inches to my smile.
"I love you, sultan""
"I can spend my whole life with you even in these forests,"
I leaned in to her ear and muttered those words that always seem impossible to say again.
"I also love you a lot, Gulaab"
She smiled and pecked my ear softly.
Suddenly, we both lost balance and slipped right into the pond.
The noise of water and sunlight felt really beautiful and amazing once I stood on my feet again in the water pond.
She laughed and I smiled looking at her.
"This is amazing,"
She screamed and threw water on me.
We both enjoyed the water fight and bathe.
Suddenly,
"Aaachhhhhhiiiiiiiiiiii,"
She sneezed.
"I think we should go now,"
She nodded looking at me and I forwarded my hand to her.
She took it and we both walked back to the cottage.
She sneezed again.
"Look, you caught cold"
She looked at me and I saw her beautiful eyes looking at me.
"It's because of water,"
"You should change now,"
I said closing the door behind and she looked at me.
"How can I change in front of you?"
She asked.
I smirked.
She could change in front of me, right?
"You can, I am your husband"
I tried to say.
"No, I can't. Sultan, can't you wait outside for sometime,"
She requested.
I was surely in a playful mood as I straightly denied.
"No, I need to change too"
"Okay, you change first. I will wait outside"
She said and walked past of me trying to open the door.
I held her wrist and pulled her closer.
"I don't like my wife to stand outside with those long, beautiful hair and wet clothes."
She blushed and I leaned in closer to ear requesting and nibbled her earlobe.
"I want to see, please"
Her face turned red with blush and she looked at me.
