Lust and hunger

Aarvi cornered her to the wall and the only person she could think of reaching her soon to her current location was Aaron. Her trembling hands swiped on the contact name but heard the ring in the room and, "Aarvi!"

Aaron had checked the weather notice from the state administration weather department notifying everyone to be at home and the storm might worsen so he had gone to pick her.

Seeing faint light from mobile behind the couch, he reached and wrapped her in his arms. He knows she was tortured in the dark and she always feels somebody was going to hit her in the darkness.

"I'm here. You are safe with me." His soothing, assuring voice and warm embrace started to calm her down. She didn't evade instead she leaned on him breathing slowly.

Aarvi realized everything was her illusion. She had thought she would get used to darkness soon but she was wrong. She always subconsciously expected the light in her dark life and that light is always Aaron.

Aaron silently accompanied her until her breathing and heartbeats settled.

Tia who had lighted the candles went inside, "Sister Aarvi, power outage in the whole city. Traffic jams everywhere. Expecting landslides around slopes and hilly regions. You should..." She paused seeing Aarvi's deadly calm face and Aaron standing next to her.

Tia continued after placing a candle on the table, "... leave soon. My cab driver is stuck in the traffic so I am checking for another cab, I will leave too."

It was just eleven but the day was like eight in the night.

Before Aarvi, Aaron spoke emotionlessly, "You will not get one. Come with us, inform parents at your home." Aaron had all the details about people around Aarvi.

Aarvi didn't expect him to say the words that she wanted to say. She continued after him, "Tia, even if you get another cab, you will be on the road for hours. My apartment is close by. We will settle there for now. Once the traffic clears, I will safely send you home. Alright?"

Tia happily agreed. She loves how Aarvi takes care of her. None of her friends believes she has a car and driver to pick and drop her every day to home from the shop working as a shopkeeper.

Taking required things, the trio left the shop but seeing the traffic, they walked ten minutes and reached the Skyarc.

Aaron collected the groceries he had asked his men to bring. They were entering the building, Shawn reached quivering in the cold. "Huh... Little heart, I am cold."

Aaron rolled his eyes and went ahead to the penthouse.

"Are you a kid?" Aarvi removed her upper layer shawl and rubbed his wet hair while he warmed his hands...

'Achoo'

Three turned to see Dax in the same state. He couldn't go to his villa so he decided to cozy up with his girlfriend who stays in the Skyarc. He didn't expect to see them.

"Dum Dum, I'm cold, I need a hug."

Aarvi pushed Shawn to his arms and two girls burst into laughter seeing their faces.

"Get off!" Shawn pushed him away and wrapped himself in Aarvi's shawl in a protective stance as if Dax was stealing his sanity.

Dax: "..."

"Dum..."

"Don't even dream. The doctor will kick your ass if I get cold."

"Hmph." He turned his head away walking towards the elevator, "My girlfriend already prepared soup for me."

Shawn suggested, "Some intense bed exercises are better than soup in the cold weather."

Tia flushed hearing Shawn while Dax said, "I will be on it the whole day."

Aarvi: "..."

She shook her head and punched Shawn, "Do you guys at least know I am a girl? You should avoid some topics in front of me."

The trio walked inside as Shawn responded, "Are you a girl? Okay, I will keep that in mind."

Tia let out a laugh seeing Aarvi speechless.

Shawn went to his penthouse while girls went to Aarvi's penthouse where Aaron had lighted the ventless gas fireplace in her modern European penthouse.

Aarvi had just seen the architecture of the penthouse when she booked. She could easily say, Aaron had personally taken care of the interior after knowing she bought a penthouse.

It was a two-bedroom penthouse. Due to power outage, they couldn't use the heater and it was unknown how long the uninterruptible power supply was going to provide them with light.

Aaron spoke first, "I will cook something light. It's better for you to stay by the fire. The rooms are cold." Before her response, Aaron went to the kitchen.

Shawn joined them for lunch and took them to his penthouse to watch a movie. Seeing everything arranged for the movie, Aarvi and Tia sat with him, Aaron joined seeing Shawn cue him continuously to sit next to Aarvi.

Only after the movie started Aaron realized Shawn had chosen a horror movie and with the rumbling outside, both girls had become little kittens hugging the cushion.

Shawn grinned evilly seeing Aarvi and Aaron sitting together while he kept Tia busy with popcorn to stop her disturbing them.

At Dax's girlfriend apartment

Dax quickly took a shower before sitting for lunch. After a sumptuous meal, both cuddled on the bed in each other's arms watching the rain.

"Babe, you had plans to go to Hawaii, why didn't you go?"

A coquettish voice sounded as the girl climbed on top of him, "When my Hawaii is right here, why do I need to go to such a far place?"

Dax smirked but the lady failed to catch the evilness in his eyes. He rolled on top, snapping the strap of her top, his voice was low and deep next to her ear "Do you have shooting tomorrow?" He bit her pale shoulder while his smirk was apparent and eyes were alert.

Clouded by lust and hunger, she arched her back to press her curves to his firm hot body as a groan escaped from her lips due to the bite on her shoulder, "Postponed indefinitely."

She lifted her head and bit his ear seeing him slow while Dax's eyes moved on his mobile which lit up displaying a message.

[Play. Don't get played.]

When he threw her thin piece of top aside, the lady tossed his t-shirt away. Letting her enjoy exploring his body, his one hand swiped the message away from the screen and flipped the mobile upside down.

Dax clearly could say she was filled with lust before he could even start.
