Chapter 271 - Closet

Ch-270

"Your sister-in-law," Henry said to Esther. 

Esther: "…" 

Brother, I mean her details. Obviously, she would be my sister-in-law if you marry her. 

Esther shook her head helplessly. She held his chin and scooped a big spoon and stuffed it in his mouth making him unable to speak. 

"First! Shut that not-so-innocent mouth! And tell me about her details! Who is she? From which family she is? Is she a wealthy woman or a middle class or a poor woman? I don't mind any kind of woman. But was she good to you? Is she beautiful?" Esther continued to ramble on and on about her future sister-in-law. Esther was really excited because this was the first time in her life. Because she was really happy. For the first time, her brother was talking about some woman with her. She really wanted to know whether the woman he found the right woman or not. She doesn't want him to fall for some gold digger. 

"Esther! Girl! Stop! Even after you got married you are still the same gossipy woman! First listen to me," he said exasperatedly. He was hell shocked when he was stuffed with a big scoop of food by her. He struggled to swallow the food in his mouth. By the time he finished swallowing, his sister was rambling like an idiot. He wanted to cut of her words but you know… she is just… sigh. Forget it! He needs to put an end to this non-stop chatterer. 

"Stop!" he yelled almost when he couldn't hold it anymore. 

Esther looked at him with eyes which said 'I want to know more about the thing that you are going to say, all my eyes and ears are widely open to listen them' look. He sighed exasperatedly before taking a deep breath. "Firstly… You got to chill down. Secondly… even I need to know who she is. Thirdly… she is not from human realm. Fourthly… I only remember her wearing blue saree. Fifthly… she has a whitish skin. Sixthly, she has a beautiful smile. And finally, when I try to remember her face, I get a severe headache and I cannot remember her face no matter what." Henry said. 

Esther: "…" 

What!? 

Not human!

Even he doesn't know! 

Whitish skin! 

Always sees her in wearing blue skin! 

Beautiful smile! 

Headache when tried to remember everything! 

What the fuck! Esther's face turned into different shades. She doesn't know what to say. 

Was he explaining about her sister-in-law or a puzzle to her? 

"Bro… are you giving me a puzzle or are you talking about my sister-in-law?" Esther said as she scrunched her nose. 

Henry gave a look which said 'I am talking about your sister-in-law. And if you think like that, I can't do anything' 

Esther: "…" 

Brother, that innocent look doesn't suits you. Esther badly wants to say this line, but it's such a pity… she doesn't want to say it out loud. If she did… he would say some other brainless thing. And she was too tired to argue with him. 

But Esther knew that he was being truthful here. She can't say or do anything to him. And she has no idea about whom he was talking. 

"When will you leave this realm?" she asked opting to change the topic. 

"After you summon your father here and talk to him," Henry said. 

"What do you mean?" Esther asked confused. 

"I mean… in Kshatra kingdom only you can perform magics and cast spells. All the kings who lived in the kingdom and the trusted royal ministers lived thousands of years longer on the boons and the spell you casted on them," Henry said. 

"And you have to remember the spells to get him here. He can't do magic like you. And just to meet you, he can't do anything stupid which could make him lose his life just to meet you, when there was no king ready to inherit the throne of Kshatra," Henry added. 

What!? 

Why was he talking puzzles today? 

Can't he speak like a human? 

Aish… what could she even expect from him? 

There was a thick silence enveloped in the room. Esther decided not to put her head in his mouth. So that it would not be crushed by his puzzles. 

"Are you full? Do you want to eat some more?" Esther asked when he was done eating food. 

"No… But can I get buttermilk?" he asked her. Esther nodded and pushed the trolley with dirty dishes. 

She placed all the dirty dishes in the sink and left them for the servants to clean them. She took out curd to make buttermilk. After preparing buttermilk she took it to his room. 

"Brother, here is your buttermilk," Esther said handing him the glass to him. 

"Thanks," he said and gulped all of it in a go. 

After drinking he placed it on the bedside and looked at her. "Let it be here. Servants would clean it tomorrow," he said to her. 

"Rest now… It's past twelve," he said to her looking worriedly. 

"Brother… I wish there is someone to take care of you." She said suddenly. 

"I have you, mom, dad, grandpa and the servants. Why do I need someone more to take care of me? I have already had a lot of people," he said. 

"Brother… I am married and had a son. And mom has a husband to take care of. And servants they only work for some time. I need you to find some one who could take care of you very well. And I would be glad if that some one would be your… wife. Find her," she said before turning around. 

Henry gave her a deep look before heaving a long sigh trying to let out his frustrations, which he failed to do so. 

But he realized… his sister has same thoughts as him. He needs a person who could stay by his side. But it's just that… her sister confirmed that who was that person was. That person was his wife. 

Maybe… it's time for him to find this mystery woman. 

Meanwhile…

Esther entered the room and saw her husband still working on his laptop checking his documents and other things. She searched every inch of the room but didn't find Reggie. 

"Where is our son?" Esther asked getting Cyrus's attention while walking to her closet. There were few clothes left in her closet so… she doesn't have to worry about her clothes. Even if she has no clothes, she would just wear his long t-shirt to his sleep. 

"Mom took him to her room. Since, he would be leaving tomorrow… she wanted him to sleep with them tonight. But sadly… he got snatched by grandpa and is now sleeping with him," Cyrus said to her with a sigh. He checked the last mail and closed it down. 

"Hmm… I see," she said nodding her head at him. 

He looked at her made a gesture saying her to come to him. Esther walked to him and stopped in front of him. 

"What?" she asked him. 

Cyrus pulled her and made her sit on his lap. He looked relieved only when he found her in his arms.  "I feel that my life returns to me… only when I see back in my arms, Wifey…" he said inhaling the scent of her hair through his nostrils. 

"Cheesy…" she commented. 

"I am being truthful, Wifey," he said. 

Esther sighed at him. He knew he would carry  this to sex. "Did you bathe?" she asked him. 

"yes," he said. 

"I will take a shower," she said. 

Earlier… she made an attempt to open her closet. Keyword attempt. Yes! She held the knob of the closet door and was about to open when Cyrus called her. 

Esther was getting frustrated when she couldn't open it. It's hard for her to open. It's been nearly a month and no one used this room. So, the door became tight due to the lack of the usage. She grunted in frustration as she got fed up with the murky door. When she was about to give up and turn around, she felt a hot breath fanning her neck. Her skin turned red, her cheeks tinted with red color, her lower lip made its way in between her teeth. Even though she tried to put a strong put in front of him, her body couldn't hide her emotions. 

Cyrus smiled when he saw his wife's body reaction. He was glad that he has this much affect on her. He placed his both hands on her waist, making her tense up, while placing his face on his shoulder. 

"Let me help you," he whispered in her ears. He placed the hand on her waist sides and didn't fail to notice how the tips of her ears turned red. He licked her lobe and placed his hand on the room. Before she could know what was happening around her, the closet opened making her squeal in joy. 

She turned around hugged hum before taking a look at him.
