Chapter 51: Immunity is very much needed!
"It's getting quite chilly. Why don't we go in now?"
"Hmm..."
"What is this stain on your back? Come closer, let me take a proper look." Ira pulled Shiv by the hem of his cloth. He resisted a little, afraid that she might get worried.
"What is this?? Why are you resisting me so much?? I just wanted to take a look at it... You are acting a little suspicious!" Ira pulled him harder.
"Hey! Why are you avoiding? Wha!"
Shiv tripped and they both fell. Ira fell on top of him as she hit her head on his chest.
"Wah! Sorry! Are you alright? Here, I will help you get up."
Shiv stretched out his hand.
'You really think I will help you get up? Now is my chance to see what you were trying so hard to hide from me!'
Shiv didn't notice that Ira had a sinister smile on her face. The moment he reached out his hand, she pulled him and tied his hands above his head with the ribbon from her robe. She pushed him to a ground and undid his clothes.
Suddenly a realization stroke her! 'What is this situation? Isn't it like I am jumping on him??'
Ira blushed harder and harder until her cheeks turned beat red. Shiv couldn't help but smile at the sight of the girl on top of him.
"I never thought you would actually take the initiative. You are so straightforward..." He teased her with his soft and seductive tone. He wanted to change the subject, so that she doesn't come to know about his wound.
He got pushed down by a little girl. That came as a total surprise for him. That girl was more stubborn than he thought.
Ira blushed even harder than before that she felt like all the blood on her body rushed towards her face! He heart was thumping like crazy.
'Ira calm down! You are not doing anything wrong here!! Though, from a different perspective, it does look a little erotic.... No, no, no, it's not!' Ira shook her head vigorously.
'This guy, he is definitely trying to attack me with his charm! Ira, you definitely cannot fall for his charm! Dear God! Please give me immunity and the will to fight back!!!'
She calmed herself a little as she continued to carry on with her holy deed.
Shiv tried hard to move, but she was stronger than he originally thought. 'I never thought she would be so immune to my seductive tone! She grew up a little in the time I haven't seen her...'
"I'm beginning to get more and more curious as you are trying to hide something!" Ira abruptly stopped in the middle and looked at him with her eyes full of hurt.
"Am I... really.... that untrustworthy??" She sounded like she was on the verge of tears as she choked on her words.
Shiv couldn't bear to see her hurt. He didn't fight back as he did before.
'Shiv actually fell for my trick! Yay! I'm so cool. Now is the chance!'
Ira immediately removed his robe as she had a triumphant look on her face. It took him some while to realize that she had actually tricked him.
"Now let's see.... You.... you are hurt!? What happened? I thought you were just joking around! I never thought you would be wounded! How did this happen? I... I... was just playing around with you..... I... I..."
Her eyes became blurry as tears rolled down her face. She was not able to speak properly. Seeing him hurt somehow hurts her more than she thought. She was not able to think straight.
The bandage he had on him was fully covered in blood.
'How hurt must he have felt! I didn't even know anything. With this wound, he dragged himself to find me. Why!? How did this happen!? It looks so painful but he dare not show it on his face!'
Just thinking about the pain he must have been through, made her heart bleed! She couldn't bear to watch him pushing himself to his very limits.
Ira kept crying like crazy. She just couldn't stop herself from crying.
Seeing her like that, his worst dream came true....
He wanted to prevent that from happening. He doesn't like the girl to be in pain. He would rather wish to shoulder all the painful and hurtful things for her on her behalf! He just wanted her to be happy.....
Seeing her shead tears for him made him happy on one part, as it meant, he meant something to her in her heart. But at the same time, he doesn't wish for her to be sad. He wanted to remain as an happy memory to her, like the one where she subconciously smiles at the thought of him.
He undid the ribbon which binded him.
Before he realized, his body moved on it's own...
He gently held the girl's head in his palms. His huge hands were nearly enough to cover her cute little face.
He pulled her closer to him and drew near her lips but before they could even touch, he immediately went for her forehead and planted a soft and sweet kiss.
Ira was shocked for a moment that she even forgot to cry.
She blankly blinked at him as she touched her forehead and blushed hard.
She could literally feel the heat on her face. The place he kissed felt so hot.
He looked at her like he was looking at something so precious. He pulled her closer to his chest as he whispered into her ears, "Don't worry, I'm alright. Please don't cry..."
These words were more than enough for her to stop crying. She clung onto him and burrowed her head into his chest.
She looked up at him through his embrace, as she spoke in a very caring and concerned manner, "Are you really alright? It looks so painful!"
He gently patted her head and gave a nod.
"You must tell me if it hurts too much, okay?"
He again nodded his head.
Both Ira and Shiv were reluctant to brake from their embrace. But after sometime, Ira suddenly pushed him and ran inside the inn.
