Chapter 246: Fetching Skyla From Zyair
Three days before their wedding Huria and Mawar arrived at Meena Mansion. They had come to whisk Skyla away to spend some girl time with them, hold the bachelorette party for her and help her with wedding preparations.
As per rules they had put forward Zyair would only see her at their wedding now. To tell this to Zyair was a whole other challenge. Skyla has not taken the initiative, knowing he will make a big fuss out of it.
It was Huria who had to do the honours and incur his wrath and hearing the full version had turned his rage mode on.
"What? I can’t see her till she walks down the line. What kind of crazy rule is that?" He asked in exasperation, looking from a snickering Huria to an apologetic Skyla and Mawar to a laughing Meena.
Anyone who would come to his aid, he should have called his wingmen to deal with the ladies but they came so suddenly that he had no time to prepare.
"It’s a tradition, Zyair. Let the girls have their fun and you will see the bride on the wedding day. Be a brave boy now, it’s only three days." Meena sympathetically patted his shoulder but the light in his eyes had dimmed at the thought of parting with his girl.
"I don’t want to," he grumbled like a small boy who was about to part with his favourite toy. Folding his hands on his ripped chest, he glared at the two girls as if they were harbingers of some disaster.
Mawar and Huria bit their lower lips to not laugh at his possessiveness while Skyla took his hand in his and solemnly said.
"Come with me."
He got up and followed her as she led him away from the drawing room to their bedroom.
Once she had closed the door behind them, Skyla faced him and took off his mask before hugging him. He embraced her back even tighter, his needy hands rubbing every inch of the skin they could find.
"It’s only three days then I promise we will never have to part." Skyla gently rubbed his back to calm him down, he sadly sighed in her hold, knowing he would have to part with her for the next few days. She was on board with this decision.
He let her go and gently held her by the shoulders but his face had drained of all happiness.
"I will respect your wishes but I don’t like this. Kail will be on guard duty, anywhere you would go he will accompany you. Stay in contact with me on the phone at all times." He passed on a string of instructions in a very serious tone, and Skyla nodded in all seriousness that she could muster in that instant.
"Anything happens, you will call me, clear?"
"Yes, Sensei!!!" She couldn’t help but salute him. Zyair was quick to slide his hands down her back and grabbed her round bottoms, squeezing them he pulled her taut to himself and smashed his lips against her cherry ones.
His kiss was hungry and fierce as if trying to store away her taste for the days he was going to miss.
"Go, before I change my mind," he said with a bated breath against her wet lips, the hot kiss turned her body even hotter, a few more seconds and they would be on the bed, unclothed.
"I should." Her voice came out needier than she had anticipated, and her body shuddered.
"Can I sneak into the house at night and whisk you away for a few hours?" He expectantly asked, giving her puppy eyes again. His tongue darted out caressing her lips.
"Ah! That’s the whole point of it that you shouldn’t see me and only do that on the wedding day so I will be more appealing to you and you will be surprised to see the transformation," Skyla explained, cupping his face in her soft hands and drawing small circles on his raised cheekbones.
"Fine," he answered in such a distaste that Skyla had to hide the chuckle that was threatening to let loose.
Unwantedly he let her go, his face had hardened, and he didn’t like this one bit.
How was he going to sleep at night?
The nightmares would plague him again.
Skyla hugged him one last time and they left their room, returning to the main hall.
Bitu flew over and perched itself on her shoulder.
"Pretyyyy!" He chirruped. Skyla gave a kiss to Bitu who had become so attached to her for the time being. Mawar and Huria patted the adorable green parrot and gushed over him.
"I will be back soon, go to Zyair," Skyla instructed and he flew over and occupied Zyair’s shoulder. Both were looking sullen now.
Lastly, she hugged Meena and whispered in her ear.
"Please! Take care of him. He is not pleased with the decision and might be grumpy." frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
"Don’t worry about it, I will handle his grumpiness. You go have fun," Meena told her amusedly, holding back a cackle.
They bid farewell, Zyair himself loaded all of her luggage in the car, and Kail was to follow behind them with it.
"Take care of her, I want extra bodyguards posted outside Huria’s house. No unknown person should enter. I am entrusting her safety to you, Kail," Zyair firmly told his trusted guard but his words were coated in his worries.
"You don’t have to worry, Sir. I will guard them with my life," Kail responded with his fist pounding his chest.
He then watched her leave with her friends with his arms tightly crossed over his torso and his jaw clenched painfully shut.
These were going to be the longest three days of his life. Bitu remained perched up on his shoulder, wallowing in the sadness both of them were experiencing.
"Pretty!!!" He squeaked in sadness as if wailing too.
"Yeah! We will bring her back soon," Zyair told him while rubbing his beak with the back of his bent index finger.

Back in the car, Huria drove while Skyla was in the passenger seat and Mawar was in the backseat. The girls were laughing at Zyair’s over-possessiveness.
"I can’t believe you didn’t tell him beforehand and threw me under the bus. He gave me such a profound look of dislike as if I was forever stealing his most prized possession," Huria chuckled wildly.
"He would have worried beforehand and made some excuse so I wouldn’t be able to leave with you guys. It was better this way." Skyla let out a breath of air, deep inside, her heart was aching as well to be separated from him. But she remained steadfast for him, if she had shown any reluctance he wouldn’t have let her go.
"So what’s on the agenda today?" Mawar asked from the backseat, adjusting her curls in the backview mirror.
"We are going to pamper ourselves at the salon today. Getting mani and pedi, hair treatments and spa and then at night we will hit a bar and drink away." Huria managed the steering wheel with one hand and pumped her fist with the other. Skyla and Mawar laughed at her actions.
"Let’s do this girls. It’s time to have fun."
