The Traps of Black Swan

Chapter 133 - Pre-honeymoon

Aarvi contemplated whether to leave the bed or cuddle and whether she should try to kiss and see if three feel-good hormones will be released by the little brain. After giving it a thought, she pulled him away from the edge of the bed and went to his arms just like how he had cuddled her in the city J on the couch.

A faint smile hung on his lips looking at her promptly going to sleep. He had really expected her to sleep at another end of the bed or leave saying she wasn't sleepy anymore.

He suggested curiously wrapping her hand around his waist, "Aarvi, we should cuddle to sleep... every day."

He heard her hum that almost delighted him but she continued in complacent feeling his happiness, "In your dreams."

Aaron chided himself for not expecting it. Anyhow he bargained, "Occasionally?"

Aarvi raised her head to see his expectant gaze that faded away slowly, she blinked and shook her head. She suggested before his face could fall hearing another rejection, "Day naps?"

Aaron realized she is keeping him away due to her nightmares. He didn't want to argue or force her so he nodded and buried her petite face back to his warm chest before the duo dozed off without even waking up for the ringtone of her mobile.

It was the continuous door knock that woke Aaron who moved Aarvi on the pillow from his embrace looking at her crunched brows due to the movements. He went to check at the door to see Shawn and Dax ready for the wedding in their tailored suit, smart and stylish.

Dax and Shawn looked at the stoic face of a sleepy person and looked at each other. Shawn curiously asked, "Are you guys on the pre-honeymoon? Did we disturb you?" Then he grinned mischievously.

Aarvi woke up when Aaron left the bed and walked out of the room rubbing her eyes, "Who is it?" Her groggy voice grabbed the attention of three men.

Shawn lurked inside the villa and watched her dainty face to search for any clue but failed. He asked in doubt, "Where is the glow, Little heart?"

Aarvi touched her face without understanding what glow he was asking about, "Glow!? I haven't washed my face yet."

Shawn glanced at two men then his eyes rested on Aaron before he shook his head in resignation, "Go get ready, 30 minutes left."

"Huh?" She quickly pulled his hand and checked the time on his wristwatch before running inside to get fresh soon.

However, Shawn stood in front of Aaron blocking him from entering the bedroom, "Shawn!" Aaron exactly knew what he wanted to know.

Shawn finally gave voice, "Bro, come on, it's the twenty-first century and it's really important to tie down my Little heart to you. If she escapes, you will die single."

Dax who was leaning on the couch hummed in agreement to Shawn's words, "Dum Dum's plan before deciding to date is to disappear as soon as she completes her plans."

Shawn pointed at Dax for Aaron and continued in worry mixed with confusion, "Heard? She wanted to join the military but her health stopped. If she leaves the country, she will plan everything to hide her track. Hence we are dying to meet Brother Zain and he is another bigger mystery now."

Aaron watched friends' worrisome faces without understanding their theory, 'Sleep with her to tie her down?' He asked back coldly for their reasoning, "And you think, she will stay if I sleep with her?" Because that's what Shawn meant.

If she wants to leave, Aaron knows nothing can stop her unless he keeps her captive. He is also aware that if he keeps her captive, she wouldn't think twice before harming herself or him. Her freedom was her bottom line which he clearly understands.

Shawn took a step near Aaron and seriously spoke while Dax was shaking his head, "We are talking about Little heart here, not just a random girl that could be tamed with your beauty or money." Then he circled the living hall in frustration like a headless chicken muttering to himself.

"This is so complicated. Only you could stop her but you can't go overboard. My little heart used to be so simple and she is now a complex maze. When are we going to solve her? We can't wait a lifetime for her to love…" He paused and again stood in front of Aaron.

"Did she really seduce you? Why didn't you take the chance and seal the deal? Then I will create a hell lot of havoc so that you could take her to the marriage bureau, make lots of kids then she will not run away."

Aaron: "..."

Dax objected right away, "Nope, no shotgun marriage."

Shawn immediately retorted, "Dax Grant, don't you want her to stay by?"

Aaron: "..."

He went to the bedroom hearing them start squabbling, forgetting they weren't in a relationship but him and he knows Aarvi's condition better than them.

-- In the bedroom --

He had just closed the door, Aarvi exited the bathroom in a bathrobe after a quick shower. 'Aarvi Evans, let's see how daring you are!' He thought and pulled her to his arms when she was going towards the wardrobe.

"Aaron..." Aarvi squealed by his sudden movements and froze on her toes when his left hand caged her around her waist stopping her movements to null and his right-hand finger grazed her neck sensually from collar bone to chin raising her head to gaze at his eyes.

"Is it my turn to seduce you today?" His every word sounded clear as he enunciated each word, sensually tracing her pink lower lip corner with his thumb.

Aarvi forced herself to think he was trying to frighten her but she couldn't concentrate on anything while her eyes glued to his chocolate brown eyes that were gazing deep into her, her ears only heard his peculiar tone magnetizing her senses, she held her breath when his finger outlined her lips giving her a new feeling she never felt before.

She kind of had an urge to move his hand away, at the same time she wanted to explore what she was feeling. Despite him capturing her fascination, one thing kept her mind in a place, her quivering fingers and raising heartbeats mixed with different emotions.

Aaron wasn't disappointed by her reaction, capturing her attention was already a great step for him but he wants to open her a little to know why she trembles just by the thought of physical intimacy initiated by him.

Anyhow, she turned a little, pushing him on the bed, pinning him down under her with a devilish smile carved on her face, "You are sexy enough to weaken the knees, why do you want to seduce me?"

Aaron regretted provoking her. He couldn't believe his urge to kiss her increased every time just by her bewitching tone and her gaze of enticement. He needed to shut his eyes and think something else afraid of forcing a kiss on her.

Aarvi's mentally decided, 'I should never try again.' She didn't want to seduce him again seeing his ever so calm face.

Just then Aaron's voice sounded, "Aarvi Evans, do you remember you are not wearing your personal bathrobe but a size larger?"

She furrowed her brows hearing him and lowered her head to see her good view inside her bathrobe. She jolted aside pressing her palms on her chest, "Pervert…" She hissed being glad for the lingerie.

Aaron: "..."

He didn't actually dare to see when his urge was going out of hand. He just guessed to divert her attention. Seeing her glare, he clutched her wrist and pinned her on the bed going atop.

"You are out in bathrobe trying to seduce me and I am the pervert."

Aarvi pouted her lips, shattering his resolve to do anything to her. 'Doozy' He planted soft kisses on her cheeks, seeing her blinking eyes unknown what to do against his tender actions. "Be good, get ready, and go with your friends."

Sliding a hand under her, Aaron stood up putting her back on her feet before going to the bathroom. She quickly wore a beautiful black dress and styled her hair.

...

Aaron exited the bathroom to see her wearing metallic golden pumps. Her slender neck highlighted in simple yet elegant cape-style sleeves and a transparent neck. The asymmetrical hemmed lace and netted dress enunciated her spotless legs and hugged her waist giving a classy and polished look.

An effortless hair bun made her dainty face pull the attention on her eyes and bloodred lips with her light makeup. Her complete look was a perfect combination of grace and style.

He pulled her to his arms seeing her sprint away and kissed her forehead calming the beauty instantly. He whispered without leaving her, "Aarvi Evans..."

Unknowingly a smile appeared hearing his gentle voice she never felt he could possess, "Hmmm?" A sweet hum escaped her lips to know why he uttered her name.

But he shook his head before seeing her off with the other two who were waiting for her.

---

Instead of the main wedding hall, Shawn took the duo to give presents to the bride and groom to the bride's room where they were meeting and greeting all the guests and capturing the pictures.

Aarvi saw the bride and groom happily talk and posing for pictures causing her pace lower as her past memories flooded in.

Naomi who saw Aarvi looking at the couple in a daze smirked. She was already prepared to create trouble that she just needed to put in action.

Naomi muttered between three women in confusion without looking at them, "Isn't black is bad luck at the wedding? It is worn to funerals…" She suddenly shut her lips and awkwardly smiled as though she realized the Bride's mother heard her.

As Naomi guessed before Aarvi could reach them, words spread out, and all looked at Aarvi with a dissatisfied gaze and some even doubted if she was wearing black to wish them bad luck.

A middle-aged woman didn't let Aarvi reach the bride and groom, she grabbed Aarvi's hand from behind and pulled her away catching Aarvi off guard. Her loud shrill voice sounded, "Miss, whoever you are, just leave."

Aarvi's fist balled up immediately and her eyes moistened by the sudden unknown person's skin contact.
