Alarm was continuously blaring in my ears. Groaning I tried to turn around but something held me or rather someone held me.

"Veer!" I groaned and he just tightened his hold on me.

"Veer!" I yelled.

And he slowly opened his eyes.

"Huh. What's wrong?" He asked rubbing his eyes.

"Put that damn alarm off! Why did you set an alarm at the first place?" I said irritated and he just shifted towards the table and switched off the alarm.

"Now let me sleep." He said and again pulled me towards him and snuggled more into my neck.

I just smiled and traced his facial features.

How can someone be this handsome?

I traced his nose then cheeks then, I was moving towards his lips when he caught my hand and kissed it.

"What are you trying to do, Mrs.Singhania?" He asked in his deep husky morning voice.

Damn!

Such a turn on!

He hovered over me and looked into my eyes then his eyes shifted to my lips.

In no time he captured my lips and the kiss was passionate.

He moved his hands downwards and started caressing my bare waist. I moaned in the kiss and he took this chance to invade my mouth.

Finally I broke the kiss breathless.

"You just turn me on by a mere kiss!" He said chuckling and dipping his face in the crook of my neck.

My hands involuntarily went into his hair.

He kissed my neck. Then he started sucking, nibbling and biting on my neck.

And I was a moaning mess by now.

In one swift motion he unlatched my bra and discarded it on the floor.

He kissed me hard while kneading my breasts.

"Fuck, Veer!" I moaned after the kiss.

"That's what I am gonna do babe, patience." He said started going torturously slow below there kissing and sucking on every inch of my skin.

Soon, we both were panting and reached our peak.

He fell on me tired.

"I love you." He whispered in my ears and kissed my earlobe.

"I love you too." I said tightening my hands around him.

"So, finally I get to hear it!" He said pecking my lips.

"I was the first one to confess!" I said smacking his back.

"There is nothing better than morning sex." He said snuggling more in my neck.

"Get off you giant! You are heavy!" I said mischeviously.

"You asked for it." He said and held me more tight.

"By the way, the business man of the year award is out." He said getting up them shifting beside me and pulling me to him.

"Who is it?" I asked hugging his torso and keeping my head on his chest.

"Guess?" He asked with a grin.

Gasping I said "It's you?"

He just nodded and pulled me more to him.

"Congrats!" I said and kissed his cheek.

Checking in the mirror for one last time i took my clutch and was headed downstaris where Veer was waiting.

I was wearing a red off shoulder dress which hugged my curves perfectly.

Today was the award ceremony. And I was very excited about it.

Why wouldn't I be?

I've waited for this since years.

I was descending down the stairs and Veer stood there with all his glory looking handsome as ever in his black suit.

I could see he had difficulty removing his eyes off me because he was continuously staring at me with his mouth hung open.

I went towards him and closed his mouth.

"You'll catch flies." I said to him giggling.

He put his hand around my waist and pulled me towards him. I collided with his chest.

"I can't help it. You look ravishing!" He whispered in my ear in a very deep voice.

I just smiled at him blushing.

"Where's everyone?" I asked him.

"As usual Ruhi is throwing tantrums for her dress." He said laughing.

Ruhi and her dress selection.

She is soo choosy.

Just then Ruhi came running from the stairs calling us.

"Avni... V..."

She was wearing a red dress and looking absolutely pretty.

"Slow down there, my little trouble." Veer said leaving me and jogging towards her.

He picked her up in his arms and bought her downstairs.

Stop being this cute!

"How many times do I tell you not to run on the stairs?" Veer asked scolding her.

"V..! I am sorry." She said kissing his cheek and he smiled at her.

There goes my heart!

"How do I look Avni?" She asked grinning.

"Very cute." I said to her pulling her cheeks.

"And how do I look?" Veer asked with the same grin.

"You look handsome but not more than me, Right Avni?" Arnav said entering and keeping a hand on my shoulder.

"This is my last warning Arnav, stop flirting with my wife. I'll strangle you." Veer said glaring at Arnav.

"Aww, don't be jealous." Arnav said laughing and took Ruhi with him.

"Let's get going." Tanu said when everyone came.

We all were seated on our designated table and the function was going on.

Veer was holding my hand and caressing it all the time.

Shameless!

"So, how excited are you?" I asked turning towards him.

He softly smiled and said

"I am more excited beacuse this year I have you with me. All your patience, your efforts have paid off."

"Your efforts and your patience. Why are you giving it all to me?" I asked confused.

"You supported me when no one did, believed in me when I lost hope." He said and kissed my forhead.

I had tears in my eyes but I blinked them back.

Just the announcement was heard

"So, the most awaited announcement of the evening. I would like to call Mr. Oberoi on the stage to present the Business man of the year award."

Mr. Oberoi walked on the stage and said

"So, the business man of the year award goes to" and paused.

"Arrrgghh! Why such a long pause? Announce it already." I muttered and Veer chuckled.

"Mr.Veer Singhania." He announced and I looked at Veer but he was already looking at me with numerous emotions.

He kissed the back of my hand and went towards the stage.

Loud cheer of claps echoed around.

"Congratulations, Mr.Singhania. You've achieved a lot in a young age." Mr oberoi said handing him the award and patted his back.

He smiled at him and then Mr. Oberoi handed the mike to him.

"First of all Thank you to all my employees, for making this happen second time in a row." He said smiling.

"Today, I have someone special to thank, My wife." He said and looked at me with a very charming smile.

"This one's for you." He said gesturing the award.

He handed the mike back to the host and left the stage all the while looking at me.

I could hear hootings, claps in my background but all my focus was on him.

Tears started brimming in my eyes.

Control!

Control!

Don't Cry!

"Congratsss!" Everyone yelled on the table as I went towards them.

I just shook my head smiling.

"So, now do I get a raise in my salary?" Mihir asked glaring.

"The day you stop barging in my cabin without knocking is the day I am going to promote you." I said laughing.

"Ahhh.. never going to happen." He said shrugging.

Then I saw Avni with a sleepy Ruhi in her arms walking towards our table.

Have some mercy on my heart!

"Mom stop with that tears of yours. It is a big day for him." Tanu said hugging mom.

I got up and hugged her from behind the chair and kissed her forhead.

"What? These are happy tears. I am just very proud of you. Not only you, all of my kids." She said sniffing.

"We love you, mom." We three said to her together.

"You know right, you all have my sperms in you too? You just keep giving attention to your mom." Dad said narrowing his eyes.

"Ewww, dad!" Tanu said fake gagging and we all just laughed.

"Mom, I think we should head home. Ruhi is just getting cranky and sleepy." Avni said coming with Ruhi.

"You children wait for the after party. I'll head home with Ruhi and your dad." Mom said taking Ruhi from Avni and then we went for the after party.

There were numerous people congragulating me and then suddenly

someone came and hugged me.

"Congratulations, Veer." Aditi Agnihotri said.

I awkwardly pulled her away and thanked her.

"I really miss our times together. We should meet up someday." She said still holding my bicep.

Then my eyes met Avni's. She stood there with Tanu & Adnya with fire in her eyes.

Avni's going to kill her!

"Umm, yaa. I need to go." I told her but she again held me by my hand.

"Come on, let's have a dance." She said and I politely denied saying

"I haven't had dance with my wife, yet. So please excuse me."

I said and went towards Avni.

"Stop killing her with those eyes. Come let's dance." I said to her chuckling and holding her hand led her to the dance floor.

"I really miss our times together." Avni said mimicking Aditi.

I just laughed taking her hand in mine and other hand on her waist. Her hand was on my shoulder.

I was just stiffling my laugh.

"You're all red due to anger." I said rubbing our noses together.

"Shut up! And what were those times of yours?" She said still angry as we started moving on the song.

"We worked on a project together. That's it." I said kissing her forhead.

"No one's supposed to touch you like that!" She said glaring at me.

This time I laughed. I couldn't hold it in me. For the first time I was seeing her jealous.

She looks so cute!

"No matter who comes & goes. For me It was always you, is only you and will only be you." I said pecking her lips.

"Don't butter me now." She said still angry but trying to hide her smile which bought a smile on my face and we danced to the music in our own world.

"I love you and that's the beggining and end of everything." I said pulling her more to me.

I have this stupid smile on my face when am with her. Always!

Only you have to power to melt me,

Only you have the patience to deal with me,

Only you can make me smile until my lips hurt.

Only you!

Only you!
