Rich Brat: Sweet Revenge Of A Lazy Princess

Charan quietly entered Shreya's apartment. Even though he did not have much work in the afternoon, a client came in the evening. So he had to stay late. Of course, he did not have to ring the bell since Shreya had long before added his biometrics to her security system… to be precise it happened just 7 days after they started going out.

He did not even know how she trusted him so much in just a week to let him into to house unguarded but then she did not really give him a choice or ask his opinion on it.

A small smile spread on his face as he saw the scene that greeted him.

Shreya and Akira were huddled up on the couch with Akira comfortably lying down on her l.a.p. Shreya was reading for her in her soft gentle voice. And of course, she was reading Harry Potter. That had been Akira's favorite from the first time she laid eyes on the books. God knows how many times she had already read it.

Shreya's voice was so soft that in that quiet night listening to it almost felt like she is coaxing you to sleep. And Akira did end up sleeping like a baby. Shreya made sure that Akira is safely settled in bed, only then did she notice Charan standing around leaning against the door without making any noise.

She went near him beaming, "When did you come??"

"Just now," Charan said reaching out and c.a.r.e.s.sing her head.

"You had your dinner??" Shreya asked dragging him to the couch.

"Why?? Are you going to cook if I hadn't??" Charan asked teasing her.

"You wish. There is some leftover pizza. Pritham came over so we ordered. Anyways my kitchen skills are limited only to toasting bread and spreading jam." Shreya said cuddling into him.

Charan smiled and reached out and kept his arms around her shoulders and kept her close.

"As expected of a spoiled princess," Charan said against her ears.

Shreya pinched him on his torso making him wince but then he let out a chuckle. He leaned a planted a kiss over her temple with an adoring smile.

Shreya suddenly thought of something and sat up.

"Hey… teach me some basics in the kitchen will you??" she asked completely surprising Charan. But when he looked at her, she seemed embarrassed and awkward.

"Why are you asking all of a sudden??" Charan asked.

Shreya, of course, told him all about the silly banter between Akira and Pritham.

"SO you want to impress Akira??" Charan asked with his brows raised.

"Well, of course, I cannot let my image fall down in front of her. I might not become proficient in cooking but at the very least I want to be able to warm her milk." Shreya said with a serious expression.

"Then what about me??? Don't you want to impress me and cook something for me??" Charan asked with anticipation.

"Of course not. One- if you want something to eat, you can obviously make it yourself so there is no use of me learning to cook for you. And two- I have other ways to impress you." Shreya said in a sly tone.

"Like what??" Charan asked confused.

Shreya looked at him with mischief. She sat up on her knees on either side of his legs and straddled him.

Charan looked at her amused. He arched his brows and looked up at her while his hands circled around her waist holding her in place. He was curious as to what she might actually do. She had a knack of catching him off guard.

Shreya looked at him seductively with a sly smile. She kept her eyes on him and leaned over impossibly closer to him. There was just an inch gap between their lips. Charan's eyes darted over her lips with anticipation. Just when he was about to close the gap between them, Shreya shifted and dug her teeth into his cheeks. Just like in her office, she bit him and left a mark of ownership.

"Ouch…" Charan exclaimed in pain. See, as he said, she had a knack of catching him off guard.

"Were you expecting something else??" Shreya asked and let out a giggle at his shocked face.

Charan's face softened seeing her like this. He had long before noticed she always had a sense of gloom whenever he would drop her off to her apartment. She always looked slightly depressed here for some reason.

"You know I am not a food right?? Last time this happened, the mark stayed for two whole days. Everyone was looking at me weirdly." Charan said in dismay.

"You should have just explained that your girlfriend likes to bite," Shreya said proudly shrugging her shoulders.

Like hell, he would. That would be even more embarrassing. But then again everyone probably deduced as much already.

Shreya ran her thumb over the mark gently. She did not even understand her own obsession. She was like a wild beast marking her territory. This possessiveness she felt for him was so new and so addictive.

"This right here says you are mine." She said with burning eyes.

Air stuck on his throat seeing her like this. It was not like there is a flock of girls chasing him. He was just an ordinary guy with a kid that made him extremely unpopular. At best he had a decent face that was all. So this whole thing did not make sense to him logically but still warmed his heart irrationally.

"I know," Charan said and pecked her lip lightly.

Shreya beamed instantly. She was happy that he did not question her crazy side. She had always been a rational person so far. That is why the fact that she had such an irrational side was baffling for herself on so many levels.

"You seem to be in a good mood today…" Charan commented with a smile. He reached out with one of his hands and c.a.r.e.s.sed on her hairs lightly.

Shreya slid down and laid her face over his c.h.e.s.t and nuzzled in.

"Of course I am. You should have seen Akira. She was like a mother lion defending her cub. Pritham said that she was glaring at him just for thinking about waking me up." Shreya said proudly.

"So you are on a sugar rush because a 9-year-old protected you from your friend's teasing???" Charan asked dubiously.

"So what??" Shreya asked fiercely.

"Nothing. Just asking." Charan immediately retreated. He was pretty happy they get along well.

Shreya sat down on his l.a.p.s and comfortably leaned on his embrace.

"This feels like home suddenly. You know whenever I come here from work all that greets me will be walls… I am not complaining or anything since I chose to be this way. But it was still very cold. But now, some how this place actually feels warm." She said smiling to herself.

Charan did not say anything, he just c.a.r.e.s.sed her behind her head and gave her a kiss on her temple. He then shifted down the couch and laid comfortably with Shreya streached right beside him. His eyes drooped without his realizing. It had been a long day after all.
