Hello.

"Why you did do that?"

I asked in a whisper. I was embarrassed last night and here she smiled like crazy.

But before she can answer anything little Evan pointed his Hand toward My neck. With a red face that he will cry soon, he cried.

"What's on your neck Iris?"

I stopped taking hearing his crying voice and noticed what he said. Instantly my hand made its way to my neck. I touched it but felt nothing other than slight pain.

What's there?

"Nothing.."

I said looking at both of them. But to my confusion, Amara was looking at my neck with great interest and there was a smile too on her Lips.

"Is there something wrong....?"

I asked. I wasn't sure I did right or wrong because as soon as I said those words a teasing smile made its way to her lips.

"Oh, absolutely nothing! It's more than right there.."

She said after clearing her throat. I looked at her confused. Till then Evan was crying with a little tear on his cheeks. Amara tried making him silent but then he dropped himself from her arms and run away.

"Why is he crying?"

It's soo confusing!

I looked at Amara who was looking at me with a teasing smile making me conscious.

"He just saw something he shouldn't...but believe me, darling, there is nothing wrong..."

She said and I shrugged but as soon as she said the next words I froze.

"Right Xavier.."

Her eyes cast toward my back, with a teasing smile still on her lips. I bite my lips as soon as I felt my heartbeat fastening sensing him near to me. His masculine cologne hit my nostril.

I become stiff as my mind gave a flashback of what he did with me in the morning...unknowingly

I gulped and looked everywhere other than him who was by now standing a step ahead of me, just beside me. His eyes cast toward Me and then toward Amara.

"What?"

I heard his morning throaty voice which made my eyes snap toward him for a second. I gulped as soon as I realized his voice affected me.

Nothing new about me getting affected.

"Nothing dear twins, Evan just noticed something he shouldn't have...Here"

She said emphasizing the words shouldn't have more than necessary and then gestured toward my neck. His eyes traveled to my neck and curiosity got me best. I looked up and saw his eyes Become wide visibly.

He then looked at my face for a second before clearing his throat.

"Go, Fresh up. I am coming."

He said. His tone held finality telling me to obey him without saying a word. I too nodded trusting my guts which were telling me to just get lost from there.

"Ok.."

I murmured and without saying anything I went in. Taking my clothes from the closet which was unlocked by the key given by Amara I went to take a needed shower.

I picked a black golden knee-length frock. It was a little too much for daily wear B-But it was my first day after my marriage. And I am going to fulfill one of my dreams.

I want to look like a new bride...

Once done with the shower I dried my body and then applied moisturizer. While applying it on my hand I went in front of the mirror.

I looked up and down at my image in the mirror, it was all normal until my eyes widen looking at my neck. My mouth hung open and I gasped a little loudly.

What's this!!

I touched the mark which was now reddish purple looking horrible. It hurts a bit but from where did it come from?

As soon as this question came to mind I gulped. That scene played in front of my eyes and my cheeks turn red.

Wasn't he biting-No-Chewing my skin..?

And then realization hit me. It was the thing he was talking about. The thing on my neck was being discussed like a new current affair outside.

Oh my god!

Dear Jesus, Can you please come And take me with you.?

My face paled thinking what Amara and Evan will be thinking. I sat on the chair with only a towel wrapped around me but I jumped when I realized he too saw that mark.!

Am I going to faint?

My head spun a little thinking about that situation. I am so dumb! So so dumb!!

I was ready to cry when I heard a knock. I jumped a little and glanced at the door.

"Will you come out?"

Biting my lips I gave myself a peep talk which helped nothing. But I needed to fasten up after all it was his bathroom and I occupying it.

While I was putting on the dress my mind went to Anara again and her teasing smile.

God!

She must be thinking we did that! When we didn't.

How I am going to look into her eyes, thinking about Amara I wore my clothes. Walking out I kept my eyes down as suddenly shyness took over me as soon as I felt him looking at me.

Nothing new

Biting my lips I stand In the room not knowing what to do when he too just stands there looking at me keenly making me nervous. I never for once looked up at him while he never for once looked away.

After what felt Like an eternity he looked away and shook his head. He took the towel placed on the bed. Thinking he must be going to the washroom I decided to go downstairs.

I turned my heels to go out as soon as possible. I wasn't having the courage to stand in front of him after what he did to me...unknowingly. but was stopped when I felt a warm hand around My cold one making me shiver. I was frozen there when he made me turn. I looked up for a second and saw him frowning at Me.

"Where were you going?"

I looked at his question.

To Amazon forest

"Downstairs.."

I muttered. He nodded but never left my hand. I looked down at our hand which looked so different.

His big hand captured my small one which made it look cute. I smiled a little unknowingly until I felt a slight touch on my chin. My face was pulled up and I looked at him who was leaning a little down.

"Look and me when I talk. And listen carefully to what I say"

He said. His tone was slow and his voice throaty and masculine which made my cheeks red. I hesitantly nodded and looked down. My heart unknowingly started to beat fast.

As I looked down I felt him sighing which made me bite my lips thinking I made him upset. Suddenly I felt him pulling me, looking up I saw him going toward the sofa. He made me sit there till now I was feeling awkward shy and whatnot.

He is acting a lot differently!

"Sit here till I come. We are newlywed. We are supposed to go down together."

He said like I was a child and I nodded like a child too. Hearing him say newlywed made me red. His voice is another case here.

He came out just after a few minutes. His Hair was damp a little falling on his forehead as he brushed them off.

One thing I like about him is his hair, they are a lot silky and shiny. Sometimes I want to feel how they will feel in my hand but of course, I don't have the guts to do that.

And I don't think I'll ever have.

"Let's go.."

He said. I too got up. Walking out I saw him walking parallel to me. His long legs hardly manage my slow steps. I was walking when suddenly a thought hit my brain.

I slept in his room with him.

Everyone knows this...

Maa knows that I spend a night with her son alone.

My foot frozen. My neck turn red and hot thinking everyone know I slept with him in his room.

They all must be thinking we did that.

That thought made my eyes widen a little more. How I am supposed to look into their eyes knowing they think I have that *S* thing with Xavier?

I stooped in my tract realizing how embarrassing it was going to be. How am I supposed to act then?

Sensing me not walking with him he stooped and looked back at me. I was lost in my world that I didn't realize him walking again back at me.

"What happened?"

He asked. I looked at him who looked so carefree. Isn't he worried?

"N-Nothing"

I said and again started to walk. My steps were slower than before. I just wanted him to go and face all the embarrassment first.

But to my bad, my way to dining come to end and I was standing in front of my family..my family which was lost in their world. I without saying anything sat on my place when Maa and Papa wished me 'good morning'

I looked at their face which was looking normal which made me feel relief but still I got my cheeks red when I looked at Amara.

I looked down silently having my breakfast. Everything was going well until just heard his voice who was just sitting beside me.

"Papa, I'll be leaving for Germany in a few hours.."

Everyone went silent and I too looked at him. I know he travels a lot but shouldn't he spend his day at home today as everyone does after their wedding?

"Why today? It's your first day after your marriage"

I heard Maa's voice. My ears perk up to hear his reply. But what he said next made me feel sad And unwanted.

"You already know I will be leaving for Germany today. So marriage or not I can't ignore my work.. "

He was right but I still felt hurt a little. J shouldn't have but I did. I looked at my plate playing with my food.

What's wrong with me?

It's not the first time he is traveling not it's the first time I am hurt by his words. It's nothing new nothing. Even the question coming to mind wasn't new.

"Why does he hates me so much?"

hello bubbles...

How are you all?

Hope you all good...

Hope you all like it..

Xavier hurt our little baby..

Do you think Iris is overreacting?

Amara is love.

She teased Xavier too..
