Akash's POV

1 year later

(Mature content starts)

I was right now on my bed snuggled close to Siya's naked chest as her mounds were heaving up and down.

I opened my one eye and peeked through it to see her sleeping peacefully.

I burried my face in the valley of her breast and caressed her one breast with my hands while sucking on her other nipple.

She moaned in her sleep and threaded her fingers in my hair and tugged them a little and I looked up from her cleavage.

"I am sleepy" she said in her morning voice and I looked down again, on her breast and took her one nipple in my mouth while caressed the other with my other hand.

I was still sucking it like a baby when she said "we need to get up or we will be late."

Looking up, I said "the function starts at 1 Siya, we still have four hours."

I then caressed her inner thighs and parted them.

From under the duvet, I slid my tongue down to her navel and then attacked her clit with my tongue.

Swirling my tongue around it, I heard her gasp and I increased the pace of my tongue as I knew she must be thrashing by now.

Even after one year of marriage and uncountable love making later, her body is still sensitive to my touch.

"Akash" she said panting and held my hair in a death like grip from under the duvet.

I swear I was about to cum just hearing her moaning my name.

Stroking her clit again with my tongue and groping her breast with my one hand while stroking her thick thighs with my other hand, I increased my pace and after a few seconds, she came in my mouth.

Sucking all the juices that were leaking out of her wet core, I removed the duvet off my body and saw her looking at me with hooded eyes.

I was grinning from ear to ear.

"I made you cum again" I said and she smiled, shaking her head.

"You always make me cum" she said and cupping my face, kissed my forehead.

"I think we should get ready" she said and kissed my nose while sitting on the bed.

"But Siya, we still have time" I said, whining.

She chuckled and said "I know but it's a very important day for me, for us and I don't want to be late."

"Of course it is, I know and we will be on time but even your husband needs some alone time with you" I said, giving my best puppy eyes which I know, melts her and lightly started brushing her inner thighs and she swatted my hands away.

"Akash, no" she said with her bulging big eyes and I pouted.

Getting off the bed, she made her way to the bathroom swaying her hips giving a clear view of her naked back and round ass, making me hard in an instant.

She for sure knows how to tease me.

Without any delay, I made my way to her and scooped her in my arms, making her shriek.

"You will be punished for teasing me, wife" I said and made my way to the bathroom while she wrapped her arms around my neck.

Closing the bathroom with a thud, I made her stand on the tiled floor under the shower and latched my mouth with hers.

She moaned in my mouth while roaming her hands in my hair.

"Why did you defy me?" I asked, panting and captured her lips in mine again.

Tugging her lower lip with my teeth, I looked at her for an answer when she panting, said "I love to keep you on edge."

I grinned from ear to ear and trailed kisses down her neck to her cleavage and captured her nipple in my mouth, trying to take her whole breast in my mouth.

She moaned my name and I squeezed her other breast while she asked me "what do you like more? My thighs or my breasts?"

"Your everything" I said, panting, leaving her now hardened nipples and parted her thighs with my knees.

The water was making us wet and just then I slipped my forefinger in her clit and she gasped.

"So wet. Are you wet for me?" I asked just above her lips and pecked her lips while she looked at me with her hooded eyes and nodded her head.

"What do you want me to do with you?" I asked and lightly stroked her clit with my thumb while running my nose all along her cheeks and face, smelling her lavender scent.

God she drives me crazy with her fragrance.

"Take me against this wall" she said panting and I in a swift motion kept my hands under her thighs and she jumped while wrapping her legs around my waist.

Keeping my one hand on the back of her head, I lightly pushed her against the wall and entered inside her, making her close her eyes in pleasure.

I started lightly thrusting in her and she threw her head back.

Moaning my name, she kissed all over my face.

I love it when she kisses me all over my face.

"You like it?" I asked, groaning while still thrusting in her.

"Ye...please...faster" she said moaning and I increased the pace of my thrust, pounding inside her.

Once I hit her g-spot, I increased my pace and started pounding in her like an animal.

"God, you unleash the beast in me, every time, Siya" I said, panting, still pounding in her and I could see her enjoying my every move.

Rolling her hips along with my thrusts, she was moaning in ecstasy with her closed eyes and I looked at her flushed face.

The water was no doubt making the floor slippery but I made sure to keep her in place.

With one last thrust, I could feel her juices smearing all over my cock and I released my seeds inside her.

Groaning, I captured her nipple in my mouth again and she roamed her hands on my now damp hair while I held her tightly in my arms as I knew, she would fall because of her high.

After assaulting and chewing her nipples for a few minutes, I made her stand on the floor.

Turning her around, I placed her now wet hair on her one shoulder and trailed kisses down her naked back while she kept her hands on the glass wall on either side of her.

Placing both my hands on hers from behind, I held them tight in my hold and kissed her neck.

"Let's get you bathed" I whispered in her ears, lightly biting her earlobe and trailed my righthand on her front and squeezed her one boob while I kept my other hand still on her clit.

"I would love it" she whispered, more like moaned due to me touching her nipples and twirling them around my forefinger and thumb.

"Did you enjoy yesterday night?" I asked, while sliding my other hand which was rested on her hand to her navel and then circled them around her navel, making her moan.

"It was magical" she said, breathing heavily now.

"Would you like the magic to continue today night as well?" I whispered in her ears while squeezing her other boob now and groaping her asscheeks now with my other hand.

"Yes, very much yes" she said, panting heavily and I grinned.

"Let's get you bathed now and we will continue from here today at night, okay?" I whispered again in her ears and she gasped as my hand that was groaping her asscheeks was now on her clit, my thumb assaulting her bundle of nerves.

"Ok..okay" she said and I turned her around.

Kissing her on her forehead once, I scooped her in my arms and made my way to the bathtub.

I had a lot of things to do to her, including bathing her.

Siya's POV

We were right now in my car with Mark driving it.

Yup, I bought my own car, thanks to the cheque I received from my publishing house.

The journey to my book being published was not easy but I am glad, I had the support of all my family and Akash, well he supported me and stood by me like a rock when I was facing continuous rejections from numerous publishing house.

I was on the verge on giving up but then, he kept me motivated to improve my writing skills and edit the manuscript to perfection so that it could get selected.

I can't forget the sleepless nights that we spent, him helping me with my work while still taking care of his flourishing business.

When I looked at him, he was already looking at me with loving eyes.

"What happened?" I asked him and he just shook his head with a small smile.

Taking my hands in his, he kissed my knuckles and kept them in his lap and looked out of the window.

I just shook my head at his cute antics and looked ahead.

In around half an hour, we were at the venue.

Sliding off the backseat, I saw my whole family, excluding Adarsh.

Mom, dad, uncle aunty all were here for my big day and I couldn't be happier.

Mom and aunty, well I had a special bond with both of them. They were the one who kept me motivated to keep writing and not give up. If not for them, their encouragement, I think I would have given up on writing a long time ago.

"Mom" I exclaimed and running to her, hugged her tight.

"Oh Siya" she said and hugged me back while sliding her hands up and down my back to calm me.

She knew I was nervous. She always knows how I feel and what I need, without even me saying anything.

Breaking the hug, I looked at her with tear filled eyes and she wiped my tears with her thumb.

"It is a big day for you, for all of us. Don't cry or you will ruin your make-up" she said pinching my cheeks and I chuckled through my tears.

I then looked at aunty and going to her, I hugged her tightly and she hugged me back.

Breaking the hug and caressing my cheeks, she said "everything will go well. Don't be nervous okay?"

I nodded and she kissed my forehead.

I then turned to uncle and dad and as soon as I was about to touch their feet for their blessings, they took me in fatherly hug.

"Where is Adarsh?" I asked and looked for him behind them.

Listening to his name, their smile faltered for a second but aunty said "he had an urgent meeting to attend in India, so he couldn't come."

"Oh" I said disappointed and pouted.

"I was hoping for him to be here" I said, looking at all of them.

"He wanted to be here but you know how he has drowned himself in work since.." uncle said and trailed off.

He didn't have to complete the sentence because we all knew what he was implying.

"I understand uncle and I wanted him to come because I thought it will be a good distraction for him" I said.

"He has sent something for you" aunty said and handed me her phone.

I gasped looking at the picture.

"A truck full of ice-cream, at your service, whenever you want" she said smiling and I grinned.

"Oh my aunty. You know I was craving for ice-cream for quite a while now but your son doesn't let me have any" I said, glaring at Akash and he shrugged.

"It's not my fault that you catch a cold easily, all thanks to your craving for ice-cream anytime, everytime of the day" he said while hugging all his family members.

"You..you" I was about to retort but was cut off by dad.

"We should go in the hall now or we will all be late" he said.

"Of course, dad" I said and we all proceeded to the hall.

As soon as I entered the hall I saw Sid and Kriti on their assigned tables and I ran to her.

As soon as she saw me, she stood up from her chair with a little difficulty with Sid's help and reaching to her, I hugged her tightly.

"Oh Kriti, thank you so much for coming" I said still hugging her.

"I had to, it is the most important day of your life, I would not miss it for the world" she said.

Breaking the hug, I kept my hand on her slightly visible baby bump.

"How is my champ doing?" I asked.

"Don't even ask. He doesn't want his mumma to rest" she said with a frown.

"Kriti, you can't blame my godson for anything" I said, narrowing my eyes at her.

"Yeah yeah, you and Sid are so obsessed with this munchkin that I feel like I have been sidelined" she said with a pout.

"Who do you love more? Me or your godson?" she asked.

"Of course, my godson" I said and just then she gasped.

"What happened, Kriti?" I asked worried.

"I felt a kick" she whispered with tears in her eyes.

"What?" I asked with widened eyes and I saw Sid just behind her with welled up eyes.

"You know, we have been waiting for him to kick Kriti's stomach for so long and now, he finally kicked, just because of you" Sid said, looking at me.

"See, he loves me more" I said grinning and crouched to her bump level.

"Come soon, darling. I can't wait to have you in my arms" I said and kissed her bump.

"Ouch. He kicked, again" she said and I grinned.

"Now it is definitely proven, he loves me more" I said, grinning from ear to ear.

"Of course, he does" Akash said from behind me and proceeded to give Sid a man hug which he returned.

"Bhaiya, not you" Kriti said whining and he chuckled.

Just when we were still indulged in our nonsense banter, I saw the owner of the publishing house, Mrs. Morrit approaching me.

"Hello Mrs. Morrit, how are you?" I said, shaking my hands with hers.

"Oh darling, I have asked you numerous times to just call me Kate" she said, waving her hands in the air.

"Yes, I know it's just that, in our country we don't call elders with their names so that just slips out of my mind" I said, smiling.

"Oh I understand dear" she said, pinching my cheeks and I smiled.

"I hope you know my husband, Akash Sharma" I said, introducing him to Mrs. Morrit and they both shook hands.

"Of course darling. Who doesn't know the business tycoon Akash Sharma" she said winking at me and I smiled.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Mrs. Morrit" he said with a warm smile and wrapped his arms around my waist.

"Pleasure is all mine and I am so glad Siya's whole family is here on her big day" she said, eyeing my in-laws who were seated on their respective table.

"We had to. It is big day, for all of us. Siya is embracing the journey to be an author. We would never miss it" Akash said, smiling warmly at me with twinkling eyes and I smiled looking at him.

"Awww. I am so happy I got a chance to publish such an amazing story" Mrs. Morrit said gushing.

"By the way Mrs. Morrit, this is Kriti and her husband, Siddharth Chaturvedi" I said, introducing them.

"Oh my my. The friend who you can't stop gushing about?" she asked and I nodded with a wide smile.

Her eyes then went to her baby bump and she gasped.

"Oh my god, I am so happy for you dear. Congratulations" she said and hugged her and she hugged her back.

"Thank you so much" Kriti said blushing and Sid just chuckled.

"I am so happy you could take time out from your busy schedule to be available here" Mrs. Morrit said, turning to Sid and they both shook hands.

"I had to. It's all because of Siya me and Kriti are married, together, happy and expecting a child. She is important, for all of us" Sid said pointing to me and I smiled.

Just then a man came to Mrs. Morrit and whispered something in her ears.

Nodding, she turned to me and said "Siya, it's about time."

I closed my eyes and then I felt my arms being rubbed in a comforting manner.

I opened my eyes to see Akash looking at me with a warm, assuring smile.

I smiled at him and taking a deep breath, looked at Kriti.

"You go girl, conquer the world" Kriti said and Sid smiled at me.

Proceeding to the dice along with Mrs. Morrit and Akash, we sat on our assigned chairs.

The host then introduced us and shortly after, Akash was called in.

"Now we would like to call Mrs. Siya Akash Sharma's husband, Akash Sharma to say a few words for his wife" the host said.

Proceeding to the mic and taking a deep breath, he said "wow. I can't believe I am here, all thanks to my wife, Siya. I can't tell you how happy I am, not only because Siya's dream is finally coming true which she had been dreaming since she was a teenager but also because, I was introduced as her husband."

"You know, you fell content and proud when you are addressed as someone's name. It shows that, they have indeed achieved something big in their life and what more of a proud moment can it be for me, to be introduced as her husband. You have for sure come a long way, Siya and I can't tell you how happy you have made me today" he said, looking at me and I smiled.

"What can I say about her. She is my best friend, my confidante. I don't know what I would have done without you, love" he said and I looked down.

"Well this ceremony isn't about me, It's about her and I would now call her upon stage" he said and then we could hear loud cheering and hooting and claps all around the hall.

I looked at my family, then at Sid and Kriti.

They all were smiling at me and then I looked at Akash who gave a gentle squeeze on my hands, to calm me.

This was finally happening.

Once in front of the mic, I started speaking.

"Good afternoon everyone. As you already know who I am, I wouldn't bore you all with introduction. I...I just don't know where to begin from. Who to thank, who to be grateful to but then, they are all my people. I don't need to thank them because they have all proven time and again that some relations which are not blood related are even more important than the ones who are blood related" I said, looking at my in-laws and then at Sid and Kriti.

Taking a deep breath, I said "this book in which I have put in my heart and soul is very close to me. You would understand it because the physical abuse the female lead faces in this book has happened with someone...very close to me."

I looked at Akash to see him looking at me with a worried look but I smiled at him, reassuring that I am fine and I can handle it.

"There are many incidents where the leads make mistakes. The first mistake of not letting her love know what she is going through. She endured everything, for his dreams" I said, looking at Akash and then my in-laws.

"Then the second mistake she did was keeping the male lead in an illusion that she is committed to someone else when she should have talked with him in the first place" I said, looking at Akash.

"The third mistake being not letting his parents know what she was going through. I am sure if someone elder and understanding was involved in the situation, the situation would have been different" I said, looking at my in-laws.

"Then comes the only mistake the male lead did, took her parents threat seriously and left the female lead so as not to break the family" I said, looking at Akash again and he looked down at his lap.

"But you know what was the best part about all these situations? They still believed in their love. Though with differences, they overcame everything. Isn't that what true love is?" I asked and they all nodded while listening to me intently.

"I can only say
