Chapter 28: Tharun's Midnight Knock
The kiss had left both of them breathless. Jay’s hands were still roaming over Nikitha’s body, hungry and possessive, when her phone buzzed again.
She glanced at the screen. Another message from Tharun.
Jay’s jaw tightened, but he stayed pressed tightly against her from behind, one hand gently cupping her breast as he read over her shoulder, his breath warm against her neck.
Tharun: Still awake, my real-life angel? ? Today was incredible because of you. I just wanted to say thank you again before sleeping.
Nikitha smiled softly, a gentle warmth spreading through her chest. She started typing, her fingers steady at first.
Nikitha: Couldn’t sleep yet. Today really was special. Thank you for everything, Tharun. You made it perfect.
Tharun: I meant what I said earlier. You looked stunning in that peach saree. The way you carried yourself on stage… it was hard to look away. You have this natural glow that lights up the entire room.
A tiny hint of something warmer slipped into his words. Nikitha felt a small flutter in her stomach.
Nikitha: You’re sweet. Always so nice to me.
Tharun: Can’t help it when it’s you. Honestly, even now I keep thinking about how beautiful you looked tonight… and how incredibly lucky I am to be close to you.
There it was — a gentle but clear hint of flirtation.
Nikitha bit her lip, feeling the shift. Jay’s hand tightened slightly on her breast, his thumb slowly brushing over her nipple through the thin fabric. She could feel his body tensing behind her, his cock already starting to harden against her ass.
Nikitha: Tharun… you’re starting to flirt again. ? I’m feeling lenient tonight because of how much you helped me these past weeks. All the effort you put in… I’m really grateful.
Tharun: Lenient, huh? That sounds promising ? Then maybe I can be a little bolder just for a moment… Call me darling! Or better yet… call me your dear husband.. ?
Nikitha’s cheeks flushed instantly. Her breath quickened. Jay’s grip on her breast became firmer, more possessive, as he pressed his hardening cock against her ass and gave a slow, deliberate grind.
Nikitha: Tharun! You’re getting naughty now… I’m blushing so hard right now. I said I’m feeling grateful, but this is only for today, okay? Just one day of me being extra lenient because of everything you did for me.
Tharun: Only for today? You’re reassuring me… Shit, if I was with you right now I would have hugged you so tight and kissed you for what we’ve achieved. Just a proper celebration. Jay really played a spoilsport today.
The flirting had turned noticeably bolder. Nikitha’s face burned as she read his message. Jay’s breathing grew rough in her ear. One of his hands slid down her stomach, fingers teasing under the waistband of her panties, brushing against her smooth skin.
Nikitha: You’re really pushing it now… But yes, only for today. Because I’m grateful. Don’t make me regret being nice, darling. Sadly, today ends in an hour. It’s already 11:00 PM now. Even if you come now, you can’t hug or kiss me. What a sad story for my brilliant manager, friend Mr. Tharun..
She laughed softly while typing the last line, her body squirming slightly as Jay’s fingers dipped lower.
Tharun: OMG, did I miss a hug and kiss from my precious woman? Are you serious right now?
Nikitha: Yes. I know you’ve been trying so hard for weeks while I kept you strictly friend-zoned. I thought… since you’re missing me too much, I could be lenient with you today. But looks like you missed your chance..
Tharun: So I still have one hour?
Nikitha: You can’t reach in time.. And yeah, you missed it.
Tharun: Who said?
Nikitha: Me.
Tharun: In 2 seconds you will hear the sound.
Almost immediately, a loud car horn blared from right outside their villa.
Both Jay and Nikitha froze.
A new message popped up instantly.
Tharun: I’m already here, Niki. I couldn’t stay away. Come out, beautiful. I have a special gift for you… and I want to thank my favorite girl properly while you’re still feeling this lenient.
Their eyes met, wide with sudden realization. If Tharun came to the door and saw them together like this — Jay’s hands all over her, both of them barely dressed, flushed and aroused — all their carefully crafted lies would come crashing down. The secret marriage, the excuses, everything would be exposed in one single moment.
“Shit…” Jay muttered under his breath, his voice low and tense.
Nikitha’s heart hammered wildly. She quickly pulled away from Jay’s embrace, her body still tingling from his touch. She grabbed her thin nighty that had been discarded earlier and hurriedly slipped it on. In her rush, she completely forgot to wear a bra. The soft fabric clung to her curves, her hardened nipples clearly visible through the material.
“Stay here,” she whispered urgently to Jay, her voice shaky. “Wait here. I’ll send him away quickly and come back. Don’t come upstairs.”
Jay’s jaw clenched, jealousy and worry burning in his eyes, but he nodded and silently moved toward the stairs following Nikitha, he stayed near door.. was ready to spy them from there.
Nikitha took a deep breath, trying to calm her racing pulse. She wasn’t even sure if Tharun was standing right at the door or still waiting by his car. She quickly tied her messy hair into a loose bun, hoping she didn’t look as disheveled and turned on as she felt.
With one last glance toward the downstairs where Jay had been waiting..
She walked barefoot toward the main door in upstairs, her heart pounding louder with every step.
Her hand hovered over the doorknob for a second. She could still hear the soft, teasing horn from outside.
She slowly opened the door.
The kiss had left both of them breathless. Jay’s hands were still roaming over Nikitha’s body, hungry and possessive, when her phone buzzed again.
She glanced at the screen. Another message from Tharun.
