EXCERPT
He
found her on the balcony.
She
stepped out of the shadows.
But
the girl who stood in front of him was certainly not the one he thought he’d
married, and to make matters even worse, she was definitely not ordinary-looking.
She
was stunning!
Just
as his eyes affixed to her face, the wheels of his brain drew to an abrupt
halt. What a face it was. That of an enchantress, no less.
Bathed
in ethereal moonlight, with dark, wavy hair of shimmering black silk that
flirted with her smooth and dewy complexion; regular, well-defined features;
huge, luminous eyes that sparkled; lustrous lips, full and moist that curved
into a mocking smile and…brought him
crashing back to earth!
This
was exactly what he had been guarding himself against! This girl, this
stranger, had already knocked him off his moorings when he was least prepared
for it. Beautiful creatures like her should not be allowed to roam free on the
streets, in particular creep unannounced into unsuspecting men’s bedrooms! What
was she doing here?
He
wrenched himself out of the haze. There wasn’t any way he could afford to be
unsettled in his well-planned life. He cleared his throat twice before he found
his voice. “You aren’t Deepika. Where is she?”
“Yes,
you guessed right,” she spoke in a low soft tone. “I’m not Deepika. She’s gone.
I am Naina.” She paused for effect. “Good bye, Rihaan. Nice to have made your
acquaintance.”
She
turned to slip past him.
