226 The Lion and the Lamb !!!

"What is the current status of the final round demonstration part?"

"They have agreed to your proposal".

"Have they?"

"Yes, Mr. Vikram. It's all arranged now".

Saying that Peter was about to turn and leave but then he paused and came back and said,

"I have some other news for you. Not that it's important, but I thought that I should let you know".

"What is it?"

"Raymond's sister is getting married today at the City Council".

"I see, with the same guy who came to act up that day on the gala night I guess?"

"Yes, Sir".

"Good for them".

"Let him have a last lap of happiness because starting tomorrow, I will bring in hell into his life".

Vikram said and went near the window and looking into the distance he mumbled,

"I am coming for you Ray".

"No Akira, this is looking completely weird".

"Hmmpphhh ", she said and went back to her room to try another piece of cloth.

"How about now?"

"Akira seriously? You seriously were thinking to wear this one?"

"Then what do I wear? I have nothing that is all dreamy and white".

"For God's sake you are not the bride Akira and the marriage is at the city council. It's just a formal registration. So just wear anything formal or semi-formal and go", Mike yelled.

"But I wanted to wear something nice and dreamy. It is a marriage for God's sake".

"Akira I repeat again, not yours. NOT YOURS".

Akira stomped on her feet and went back to rummage through her wardrobe.

"What about this one now?"

"You need therapy", Mike yelled and then came inside the room to scan her wardrobe.

He skimmed through a couple of her dresses and then picked out one simple strapless white short dress.

"Wear this and then throw a jacket or shrug on it", and saying that he left the room.

"Ooohhh. Since when your choices in clothes have become so much better than mine".

"Since Always", and saying that he shut the door of her bedroom.

Akira quickly changed as she had only half an hour left to get ready before Raymond arrived.

After twenty minutes of effort, she was already.

She wore a peach colored jacket on top of it and that made her look all peachy and fresh. Happy with her final look, she added some earrings and a bit of lip tint to finish her look. She had already braided her hair to one side and that makes her look even prettier.

"How do I look now?", she came out of the room and asked.

"Very less disturbing. Not an eyesore to be honest now".

"You...".

Akira picked up a pillow and threw at Mike.

"Watch out. You shouldn't injure your ace flyer just a day before the contest. My limbs are very very precious for your company right now".

"You are so evil Mike", Akira said and stormed to the kitchen.

"Where is all the milk?"

"Oh I was a bit bored at night so I tried making a couple of smoothies and it got over".

"Jesus Christ, I can't even have my cereal now".

She was starving and badly needed to have something to prevent that Road Rage ongoing inside her stomach. She had no mood to cook right now, so she picked up a flavored frozen yogurt and started gobbling it up when Raymond arrived.

As Mike opened the door to receive him, Akira's jaws just dropped.

His prince charming came in looking all drop dead gorgeous and dapper in a casual summer khaki suit. His accessories were on point, his ruffled and a bit unkept hair look made him all the way more attractive and exuding nothing but sex appeal. She just wanted to pull him towards her right now, tugging on to his lapels and give him that deep wet kiss that she desired. But given that her brother was lurking around, she just bottled her thoughts inside and sighed.

"Umm... I would like to have what you are having".

"What?"

"That yogurt thing, I am famished", Raymond said and entered the kitchen.

Akira went to the fridge and took out another tub for him to eat and said,

"This is blueberry. I hope you will like it".

"But I want strawberry, the one like yours", he said and turned back to check on Mike and found him walking towards his room, so he leaned back at her and covered her waist with his arms slowly and said,

"That's ok I am gonna have it anyway".

"What?"

"Eat some".

Her nervous eyes looked up at him and she whispered,

"No Mike is here".

He shook his head and then leaning close to her ears he whispered,

"He isn't. So just do it".

She looked up at him again and blushed hard and then took a small spoonful of yogurt and she put it in her mouth.

His one hand released her waist and came up to hold the nape of her neck as he leaned further on her and licked her lower lip with his adept tongue.

"Mmm...", she moaned with her mouth still closed and he said,

"Let me in".

Saying that he probed his tongue inside and her lips just parted in response like it was the stimuli.

He dug in deeper, touching every corner, taking every ounce of flavor that was left with her and then he said,

"Strawberry is always nice".

He licked his lower lip slightly to tease her and that made her blush even harder.

She pushed him aside and rushed back to her room.

Raymond had a wide grin on his face as he opened the yogurt tub to eat.

"Why you have such a big smug smile on your face, if I may ask?"

"Sorry?"

"What are you smiling about?", Mike asked and picked up another tub of yogurt from the fridge for himself.

"Errmmm... some inside joke about the project work. I just remembered when your sister left to get her bag", Raymond said and escaped.

Then Mike saw Akira coming out of the room and she looked all red like she had been kissed by the sun. There was a background smile lurking on her face too.

"What are you so happy about?"

Akira was startled with Mike's question and she looked at Raymond and stuttered.

"Errmm... I saw a funny video on my phone".

"Ahh I see... you both get into the kitchen and he remembered something funny about work and you saw some funny video on your phone, which is lying on the kitchen counter by the way".

"Oh shit !!!", Akira mumbled.

"You guys think I can't understand a thing", saying that Mike crossed his arms in the front all defensively.

"It was just a kiss Mike, nothing else", Akira blurted.

Mike looked at Akira for a while and then looked at Raymond and then laughed.

"Jeez, it's so easy to get you Akira".

Then looking at Raymond Mike said,

"Why would you even fall for my dumb sister?"

Akira pouted her face all angry for being played with and rolled her eyes when Raymond came close to her and embracing her with his one arm he looked at Mike and said,

"What to do? The Lion has fallen for the lamb".

"Stupid stupid lamb".
