Chapter 33: Chapter 33 - Kinky old gramma

Aadhya’s POV -

How can I forget the obsession of Gramma for cleanliness? Mumma used to tease her by calling her a ’clean freak,’ but none of us ever dared to make a mess when she was at home. I don’t know how Ryan is still calm and is doing everything I was saying, but I don’t think he would like Gramma to take charge of his house like that. He came out of the bathroom wearing a vest and lower. He is rubbing the towel in his wet hair... {damn, that’s the most beautiful sight I have seen till today} ... I tried to move my gaze from him, but it was extremely hard.

"Can you explain what all that is about?" he asked me, and finally, I averted my gaze from him.

"She thinks this is my home as we are mates, and she is a clean freak," I explained and put my now clean knives on the side table. "I will collect them later, but I think fifteen minutes are going to be over soon. We should go downstairs," I told him and got out of the room. I went downstairs where no sign of blood was visible now... {see, clean freak} ... I rolled my eyes at my conscience and went towards Gramma, who was sitting silently on the sofa there.

"Did you kill her?" She asked me as soon as I went there, which caused me to take a deep breath.

"No, just simply tortured her," I explained and sat on the sofa. I could clearly see the sadness in her eyes, but I didn’t say anything.

"She needed to be tortured, Shira, and you also know this." Ryan came and sat beside me while looking at Gramma. "She deserves way more than that."

Gramma nodded and took a deep breath "so tell me, what have you done with her? I am not familiar with the methods of torture used by royals," she asked, looking at Ryan, and he shook his head negatively.

"I can’t torture her. I respected her throughout my life. It’s hard for me to cause her harm and see her enduring it," he explained, and Gramma looked at me with wide eyes.

"Did you..." she was not even able to complete her sentence before I nodded, and she gasped, "Are you alright, sweetheart?" She got up from her place, sat between Ryan and me, and started caressing my shoulders.

"I am not an eight-year-old now, Gramma. I have kicked people’s assess more than once and killed many people of different species. Torturing someone who deserves to be tortured is not something that hard," I explained, and she looked at me suspiciously.

"Are you telling me that you have not faced any problem because she had the same face and voice as mine?"... {How in this hell does she always get what I was thinking? }... when I didn’t reply, she gave me a told-you look and again caressed my shoulders.

"Fine," as soon as I said that, a triumphant smile came on her face, "but now I am not going to compare you two because neither the looks nor the voice is the same now," I said to her softly, and she smirked.

"I am always hotter than her" she made a gesture of flipping her hair; then, she stood up from her place. She put her hand on her waist and swayed her hips a little "What do you think, Ryan, who is hotter?" as soon as she said this, Ryan choked on the water that he was drinking, and I looked at her with an open mouth "ah," she said and shrugged her hand towards us.. "you both are extremely boring, I am going to cook something, and I am expecting that you would also like to have some delicious food" she didn’t wait for us to reply and directly went towards the kitchen.

Suddenly Ryan took my hands in his and turned me towards him. "Are you sure she is Shira?" he asked me, and I nodded. "Is she always like that?" he asked me, looking a little tense.

I shrugged "well, yes, she is a little... well... let’s just say that she can do anything." I said softly and gave him my best puppy dog eyes. As soon as I did that, he groaned in irritation.

"Can you stop this?" he asked me earnestly.

"What?" I asked him innocently and again blinked my eyes to tease him.

"Don’t do that, Aadhya. I am warning you," he said in a serious tone, but I was immensely enjoying his irritated mood.

"What am I doing?" I asked, but before I gave him my puppy dog eyes again, he grabbed my arm and yanked me towards him. I shrieked in surprise, and suddenly, the familiar yet not-so-familiar tingles started running throughout my body.

I gasped as I finally understood that I was practically lying on Ryan while his arms were encircling my waist, and he was looking at me with a blank face. I tried to calm my racing heart and ’tried’ to make the distance between us, but he put more pressure on my waist, which caused me to again fall on him with full force, and this time there was not even a little space remaining between our bodies.

"So, where were we? Yes, you were teasing me, right? Now let’s see those puppy dog eyes of yours... hmm," he asked me, but my mind could not understand anything. The only thing that I was able to hear was my heartbeats that were ringing in my ears. The only thing I can feel is the similar tingles running throughout my body... {get a grip, Aadhyaa}... As soon as I heard my conscience, I shook my head to come to my senses. After five minutes of constant internal cursing myself and shaking my head, I-don’t-know-how-many-times, I finally came to my senses and looked at Ryan, only to find him smirking at me.

"What happened, babe?" ... {damn heart, calm down, for fuck’s sake}. "Cat got your tongue, or your eyes are busy admiring my beauty and forgot to blink," he teased me, and all the blood came rushing down my cheeks... {I am sure I would be looking like a tomato right now} ...

I turned my gaze towards his chest, and my hair came down to my rescue and hid my face from him... {I just love my hair}. "Let me go," I squeaked and closed my eyes in embarrassment... {this meant to sound confident, Aadhya, did you forget?} ... Suddenly, a full-blown laugh vibrated from his body, and his body shook under me. I am still embarrassed to even look at his face, but I can feel the vibrations of laughter from his body. He was laughing so hard that he flipped, forgetting that I was above him, which caused me to ’nearly’ fall on the floor.

It happened in a nanosecond, but before I fell to the ground, he grabbed my waist, yanked me towards him, and he fell to the floor while I landed on him, the force was so strong that my nose crashed on his rock-hard chest, and I instantly felt pain.

"Ahhh," I groaned in pain. He got up from the ground in panic with me in his arms and put me on the sofa again.

"Shit, shit, shit, your nose is bleeding, Aadhya.. shit, what have I done?" I heard his panicked voice, but I was unable to see him because tears had completely blurred my vision. I shook my head negatively.

"I am fine, Ryan," I told him, but he ignored me and gently pushed my shoulders down so that I was in a lying position.

"No, you are not fine. God, what do I do?" he said and wiped my tears from his thumb, which made my vision get a little clearer... "oh yes, how can I forget... shiraaaa... shiraaaa Aadhya got hurt" as soon as he said this, I felt like facepalming... {Now she is surely going to react like a mad woman} ... I was only thinking this when Gramma came dramatically running towards us.

"Oh my god, what happened?" she asked Ryan, who looked like he was about to cry.

"I am fi..." Gramma didn’t even let me complete my sentence and gasped, looking at my now bloodied face.... before they did more drama, I got up from the sofa, but it seemed like Ryan was thinking something else. He took me in his arms in bridal style and again put me back on the couch.

"You are hurt, Aadhya. You can’t get up. You should lie down. I am calling the doctor," he said softly.

"It’s just a normal nose bleeding, for fuck’s sake, Ryan" as soon as I said this, Gramma hit the back of my head. Before she gave me a lecture on cursing, Ryan growled loudly and stood between both of us, completely hiding me behind him... {not another drama, please}

"How dare you touch our mate?" As soon as I heard this, I groaned in irritation. {why in this hell are they making this a big deal?}

"She is my granddaughter first," Gramma, being stubborn as always, replied to him with equal intensity.

"Enough guys" I tried to take their attention, but they were busy glaring at each other. {Why are all the stubborn people of this universe connected with me?} ... I took Ryan’s hand in mine "king," I called him softly, but still, this also didn’t work either.

"Babe," as soon as I said this, he turned his head towards me with so much force that I was afraid he would get whiplash. "The bleeding has already stopped. I am just going to wash my nose and hands," I told him and got up from my place. Ryan is in front of me within seconds.

"Do you want me to take you to the bathroom?" I scrunch my nose on this.

"Are you seriously serious, Ryan?" I asked him, and he nodded with full sincerity. Before I comment something on his extremely stupid acts, Gramma cut me off.

"She is stupid, Ryan. She doesn’t know anything. Tell me, where is the first aid kit?" As soon as I heard these words, I was shocked... {damn, old lady, you were fighting with this guy a few seconds ago} ...

"Yes, you are right. It is in the cabinet which is just above the microwave," he told her sweetly, and she smiled and went inside the kitchen.

"What the hell was that?" I asked no one in particular, and he gently pushed my shoulders so that I was again in a lying position. Gramma came after a few seconds and replaced Ryan so that she was now sitting in front of me.

Finally, after five minutes of rigorous check-up done by one and only ’Dr. Shira, both of them were satisfied that I was ’out of danger.’

"Thank you so much. I don’t know what I would have done without you," Ryan told her, and Gramma patted his shoulder with a smile.

"No problem, Ryan, this is my job."... {are they serious?}

"Can you guys stop reacting like I was on some deathbed or something?" I shouted at them in irritation, and both of them gave me a lie-down-or-it-will-not-be-good-for-you look.

I took a deep breath and got up from the sofa glaring at them "you both can continue playing doctor-doctor... I am going to my room," I said and walked towards the main door.

"Why are you going outside?" as soon as I heard Gramma’s voice, I cursed myself... {it seemed like it was time to blast the truth bomb on Gramma} ...

I turned towards her and gave a sheepish smile "because we don’t live with each other"

--------------------------------------

"So, you were rejected by your mate," she stated, and I nodded, "and you accepted his rejection without fighting for him" this made my blood boil.

"Do you think I should have fought with the person who bullied me my whole childhood and went to f**k someone else when he got that I was his mate?" I tried to keep my tone calm.

She took a deep breath and looked at Ryan, "and why have you not accepted Ryan... I don’t think he had bullied or cheated on you."

"I neither trust the moon goddess nor her mate bond" as soon as I said this, Gramma slapped the back of my head "owww"

"Keep your stupid thoughts to yourself, young lady. You can’t blame the moon goddess for something that stupid pup has done."

"Fine, I am not saying anything, but still, I can’t trust mate bonds." I looked at Ryan and found him in deep thoughts "you are an awesome man, Ryan. You have everything, looks, respect, money, everything, but I can’t accept you just because you are my mate. I needed to fall in love with you if I wanted to spend my whole life with you," I said to him softly, and he looked at me and nodded.

"And what about you, Ryan? Why have you not accepted her till now?" Gramma asked him, and I turned my whole attention towards him.

"I don’t want to force my acceptance on her. Being my mate is not that easy, Shira. I have many enemies, and if I accept her, she will be in danger." I looked at him dumbfounded. {it seemed like he was not in love with lily} ... "Are you seriously thinking that I have not accepted you because of lily?" I looked at him in shock.

"Did I say that out loud?" I asked, and both of them nodded. I huffed and looked at Ryan. "Well, yes, it’s the truth. When she hugged you that day, I saw softness in your eyes. You were concerned about her"

"I am concerned about her because she is my friend, and at one time, I was madly in love with her, but that’s not the case now. If I were a normal wolf or alpha, I would have accepted you on the spot when I found out you were my mate," he said with utter seriousness.

"Can you even understand what you are saying, Ryan?" I asked him in panic... yeah, I knew somewhere deep in my heart I also wanted the same, but now when he has finally said this, I don’t have the guts to even accept that he is really saying all this.

"I have been waiting for my mate for nine years, and unlike you, I actually respect and believe in both moon goddess and mate bonds." I scoffed at this as I already knew his relationship with Lily, and he looked at me with hurt-filled eyes "me and lily loved each other, but we also craved for our mates. The day lily found her mate, I knew for sure that she would leave me... so that was not a surprise for either of us as I already knew this would happen. From our very first meeting, I was attracted to you, but I didn’t know the reason ... when I touched you and found out that you are my mate, that’s the time when I finally calmed down. When you were attacked in the blue moon, I don’t know what snapped inside the king, but he suddenly took control from me and ran at the borders."

"But you said that you were not the one who saved me" I narrowed my eyes at him in suspicion.

"So, what should I have said, Aadhya? How should I have explained everything to you?" he asked me, and that actually made sense.

"Shut up, both of you," suddenly Gramma shouted at us and got up from her place. "What the hell is wrong with this generation?" she muttered under her breath and shook her head in disappointment "you can discuss all this shit when you are alone because I am clearly not interested in listening to these boring things... I will stay at the same place where this stupid granddaughter of mine will stay."

"Don’t be a stubborn old lady. Ryan is more capable and powerful than me to save you from any kind of threat. You will be safer with him" I tried to make her understand.

"I am not declining to stay with him. I am just saying that I will stay at the same place as you. If you are so concerned about me, then you can also shift here," she said, and I looked at her in irritation.

"Don’t try to manipulate me, Gramma. I knew that our views on mate bonds and mates don’t match, but it doesn’t mean that you will manipulate me to do something that you wanted me to do," I shouted at her, and she came near me and looked dead in my eyes.

"If I would be doing that, my sweet little munchkin," she said wickedly and looked at both of us, "then right now you should be locked in a f***king room while f***king each other senseless while moaning like..." before she said something else Ryan got up from his place and walked towards his office saying that he has a lot of work to do. I looked at her in horror.

"Are you fucking insane, gramma?" I shouted at her, and she laughed loudly.

"Think twice before accusing me of something, sweety" she hummed a familiar tune and went towards the kitchen while swaying her hips towards me. I threw a cushion towards her, but she bumped it with her hips and blew a few kisses, and winked at me while singing...

I love it when you call me señorita

I wish I could pretend I didn’t need ya

But every touch is ooh-la-la-la

It’s true, la-la-la

Ooh, I should be runnin’

Ooh, you keep me coming for ya...

I groaned in embarrassment and covered my face with my palms... {I can handle vampires, rogues, witches, and even a stupid alpha male or royal king, but how in this hell can I handle this old kinky Gramma of mine} ...
