Possession by Laila Ali (young adult books to read .txt) 📗

'Do I really mean that much to him?' she thought. After what he has done with her it was hard for her to believe his love and trust him.

When she had changed her clothes, she left the changing room and begin to move towards her bed when the door of her room opened revealing Irtaza.

"Will you sleep alone?"

"Umm....yes" she replied when he held her wrist.

"Sleep with me tonight" he murmured bringing his lips closer to hers.

"Why?" she whispered, getting nervous. The intimacy always made her body hot especially her cheeks.

"I know you are depressed because of Daniyal's death. I dont want to leave you alone. Come with me" he suggested and she didn't know what came over her when she impulsively nodded her head whispering a small ok.

He was right. After Daniyal's death she was depressed, that hollow feeling wasn't leaving her heart alone.

He suddenly took her in his arms and carried her bridal style to his room.

"What?! What are you doing Irtaza?!" she blushed.

"Carrying my wife" he stated the obvious.

"I can walk! put me down!"

"But I don't want you to walk"

By now, they reached his room and he closed the door behind before placing her on the soft bed and then plopping his weight on his elbows, hovering over her.

He looked straight in her eyes.

"What?!" she asked, flustered.

"I'm in a romantic mood" he smirked.

"What?!" her eyes widened. "I want to sleep"

"But I want to cuddle" he said and nuzzled in her neck, feeling her body getting tensed. His hot breath fanned against her neck, his stubble causing a tingling sensation on her cheeks.

"Ir..taza"

"Relax, I won't do anything" he said and placed a kiss on her lips which didn't last long before he pulled away settling himself beside her. He snaked is arm against her waist and pulled her to his chest before covering them both with the comforter.

She closed her eyes and within few minutes sleep engulfed her. A small smile played on her lips as the last thought on her mind was about those sweet moments occured in the evening today.

When she was asleep, he opened his eyes and plopped his weight on one of his elbow, directing himself towards him. He could trace her beautiful features under the dim moonlight. She looked so beautiful while sleeping. Most importantly, innocent.

Innocent, that word lingered in his mind longer than usual. He had never felt for her beauty, it was her innocence. When his mind asked a question to him.

'Is she really that innocent?'

'Yes' it was a reply from his heart.

'No! Don't forget how she played with your emotions!' his sadistic mind reprimanded and his jaw clenched for a second before 

"I love you" he whispered to her, placing his forehead on hers when again her hesitance came infront of his closed eyes.

He pulled back, caressing her cheek, looking at him with eyes void if any emotion.

"You'll be free of me soon, Zahra"

The next chapter will be updated soon. I couldn't post 2 chapters today as this one was so long.

Also please guys, relax. Hold on. I know you all are very eager for update but I've got alot of things on my plate. I'll update. Around 5 to 6 more chapters are left for this book.

Those who don't know I've published a new book, 'Attraction' which is Moosa's story. Do check it out and give your feedback.

And the very frequently asked question, which book would I start after finishing Possession?

Answer is 'Attraction' because Obsession has a very intricate plot. I want to write it first before publishing it. And Attraction also is full of suspense, past and drama. So I'll be taking a break after finishing this book and then come back with Attraction. When I'll be midway through it, I'll start Obsession.

The chapter is unedited. I really don't have time to re read it again. And a very big thank you for the reader who helped me writing it. 

And how was the chap?
