Chapter 2

"You're late again." Said Payal Mishra, Khushi maternal cousin and best friend since college. Who happened to work in the same company. Payal had joined the company a couple of months before Khushi. And through her she had learned that 'Architects and interior limited' Were looking for new interns. Khushi unique talent and insight for old structures and architecture had got her the job.

"Sorry." Khushi grinned. She kept her belongs on her desk and looked around confused as she saw that everyone seemed to be distracted and were casting glances to the conference room. "What's going on?"

"You've forgotten about the big project for AR group? he's here." Said Asha, another colleague with poorly veiled excitement.

"Who?"

"The ASR, of AR Groups." Asha hissed at her daftness, shaking her head in consternation. Then with a dreamy look on her face she sighed "OMG, he's gorgeous, like a Greek god he simply radiates power."

"Oh good, then they should use him to light up the city when there is a power outage." Khushi snorted. Grinning cheekily at her own wittiness.

"Really Khushi don't you have any respect. Did you know that at the age of 23 ASR made his first hundred million, and by 24 he became CEO of his company."

"So, he didn't start it from scratch like the rest of us, he had his fathers and grandfathers backing and they started the company from scratch he only took to forward." She said in matter of fact manner. "That does not give him my respect in my book." And she carried on talking hundred words a minute, as was her habit, Khushi loved to talk. "Now if you are all moony over how 'gorgeous' he is then that is another thing, but I haven't seen him so I can't really agree with you. But then you think half the men in this office are gorgeous, so I really can't take your word for it." She shrugged.

" Ok ,ok, I give up, I'm hopelessly man crazy." Asha sighed.

Khushi patted her shoulder in comfort. "don't worry it may pass after you marry." Khushi said grinning as Asha stuck her tongue out at her.

"Forget it na Khushi, let's get to work." Payla intervened their tomfoolery, And they took out their plans and began working.

Arnav Singh Raizada was just about to concluding the final part of the meeting. When he felt a strange, sensation at the back of his neck. Every thought in his head slipped out and he faltered, he motioned for Akaash to continue. Giving him a puzzled look Akaash took over.

Arnav walked to the window separating the conference room with the staff office he let his eyes run over the employees of the Architect and interiors office scanning the people there. His eyes stopped on a girl with a red ribbon braided in her long flowing hair. Hair, that reached the small of her back. He saw that she wore a red top with a blue skirt with mirror work and embroidery. He felt a strange compulsion and wanted her to turn around so he could see her face, but she was busy talking to some other girl. He shook his head shaking of the strange feeling.

"Bahi we're done, will that be all." Akaash said bring his attention to the men sitting in the room.

"Yes, that will be all, Akaash and I are going to Kundanpur tomorrow, we will be expecting your staff there in a week's time. We want this project to be started as soon as possible." Arnav said distracted.

"Yes Mr Raizada he have already selected the people best suited for this project, our best renovation designers are on this job" said Mr Kholi the HR head of Architects and interior limited.

Arnav nodded "send me an email of the number of people selected for this project, all accommodation will be made at the old Havali to house the staff. So that won't be an issue."

They shook hands with everyone and left her room making their way to the elevators.

Khushi looked up from her charts and sees Shayam making his way towards her. "Oh hell!" He was coming to pester her about lunch she knew taking in the determined look on his face. She quickly picked up a file lying of her desk and made of the elevators. "I'm going to see Rohit." She told Payal "Tell the stalker that I'm gone to Archives." She grinned thinking it would serve him right to search for her in the Archives section in the basement.

Khushi turned the corner to the elevators and saw two men enter she yelled "hold the lift." And ran, she stepped into the elevator as the doors closed coming to a stop facing the back of a man in gray suit she took in his broad shoulders and trim waist, she noted the colour of his ice blue shirt peeking out of the slate grey jacket, the back of his neat head. Absent noting that he smelled wonderful she turned around to face the door her hair flying around to rest on her shoulder leaving her back exposed by the halter top she wore.

Done with the message he was typing on his blackberry Arnav turned around to face the elevator doors only to be treated to the sight of porcelain skin the texture of cream and peaches. She was so close he could feel the heat emanating from her body, the soft floral scent of her body making his mouth water, all he had to do was bend his head and his lips would taste her soft fragment flesh. His mouth went dry, as his body reacted with unexpected ferocious desire, what the hell was he thinking he took a small step back as he felt his body unconsciously tilt forward towards the girl. His hands squeezed his blackberry as he fought for control. He noted that it was the girl with the silly red ribbon in her hair.

He released the breath he was holding and saw her shoulders twitch and stiffen, he could see the goosebumps rise along the surface of her right shoulder, her head turned slightly to her left as if aware of him, her hair hid her face but he got a glimpse of her nose and the diamond studded in it "cute." he thought, frowning at the thought. She jerked her head and her hair came flying out covering her bare back effectively. And he suddenly felt annoyed and he glared at the back of her head.

Khushi first became forcefully aware of her man behind her when she felt the heat and fragrance of his body envelope her. She felt her body's strange response as her skin tingled and burned as if he had touched her. Her heart pounding furiously she was suddenly afraid that the people present could hear it. She felt his breath along her spine and felt an answering need in her belly. This had never happened to her before. She felt a skin breakout in goosebumps and she jerked her head to let her hair cover her back. She wanted to turn her head to see his face but was suddenly afraid of what she might see there, so she held the file tightly to her chest and prayed for the lift doors to open.
