The Traps of Black Swan

Aaron had expected her to get up but not continue lying on him and bury herself in him. Her frame looked exceptionally small on his body and their current position was doing no good to him, "Why are you taking advantage of me?"

'Advantage?' Aarvi wanted to applaud him for saying it seriously.

"Can't you cover me till those buffoons leave?" Aarvi unknowingly smelled his perfume. It wasn't the first time she was near to him but it was the first time she cared to notice it knowingly or unknowingly.

It was an intriguingly sensual fragrance that was subtle yet distinctive. It had notes of Bergamot, Black Pepper that were balanced with warm Vanilla and Nutmeg.

When she sniffed again, Aaron rolled her down going on top and asked to tease her, "What am I going to get for covering you?... Another kiss?"

Aarvi ignored it and stated, "Your perfume smell is reminding me of my school days..."

Aaron's relaxed face deadpanned. It wasn't his perfume if his guess is right. It's his own scent that is reminiscent of her school days.

Aarvi thought she was thinking too much and ended it saying, "Never mind," 'Sometimes even his words do the same. My brain is malfunctioning...'

"They reached." She grabbed his top and pulled him down to hide her face at his neck without knowing his forehead had to rest on sand. Both heard the lady giggle and say, "'It's always good to be new in the love..."

'Yeah, hence you slept with your own friend's fiance, idiot.' Aarvi thought to herself and left Aaron who was really curious.

"Did you love him?"

Aarvi shook her head, "Dad and Mom wanted me to marry him, to get the collaboration and show some power in the board meeting to avoid..."

Aaron completed, "You becoming the CEO."

Aarvi nodded with hum, "Except grandfather they didn't know I was in business management. They thought I was in art and home science, I mean cookery."

Aaron continued to ask, "Then why did you reject your grandfather?"

Aarvi knew he had met her grandfather so it wasn't surprising, "All I had was saved money and my unused brain. I knew I could stand alone so I thought my parents would be happy if I left that post for my younger brother."

"He is incapable and you know that. Due to his halfwitted brain, your grandfather still looks after the company." Aaron knew Aarvi was responsible unlike turning away from it.

Aarvi didn't want to talk about them anymore, "Are you enjoying atop? Get off. I am hungry."

Aaron chuckled and rolled off aside before standing up. Then he helped her up and dusted the sand off her hair carefully while she rubbed his forehead where he had sand.

After sumptuous seafood, Aarvi flopped on her bed and dozed off soon. Aaron who had thought she was going to be sleepless due to a long nap was speechless looking at her snuggled with pillows and comforter.

"President Rivas, here are the reports." Secretary Wen's voice sounded behind him.

Aaron had taken the luxurious suite which had two bedrooms and a living hall with a dining area. Usually, Secretary Wen used to stay in the adjacent room so that their work wouldn't stop. Since Aarvi was there, he had tossed Secretary Wen to a different suite with others.

Closing the room door, he sat down cueing him to speak, "Young master Hays is with her girlfriend Grace Wells who used to be Ms. Evan's friend. As per the confidential news, Grace Wells had a miscarriage recently and they are here from two days for her recovery."

Aaron wanted Aarvi's vacation to be peaceful without worrying about unnecessary people, "Make sure they are out of Aarvi's sight when she goes around tomorrow."

"I will instruct the bodyguards to be on alert." Secretary Wen responded as he prepared a message to send it to the bodyguards arranged there.

Aaron instructed a few more work-related things before letting his secretary leave. He checked on Aarvi once and went to his room.

The next day, twelve at noon.

After finally and successfully closing the billions worth project to build a coastal port, Aaron didn't stay for the lunch and quickly returned to the hotel to spend some quality time with Aarvi till their flight time.

When he entered the suite, it was completely vacant, he was turning around when he caught the sight of a note on the room door, 'Beach'.

without changing his suit, he went to the beach to bring her back from staying under the blazing sun. Failing to locate her on the shore, he searched at the water and froze when she exited.

In their mansion or villa, Aarvi always wore the modest and dress styled swimsuits but here she was wearing a halter neck one-piece swimsuit. No doubt it was a designer swimsuit hugging her curves complimenting her flawless skin. She wasn't plump nor too skinny as in past years, her height perfectly well proportioned with her shape.

She was luscious and enchanting that other men looked at her ignoring their own partner.

The sheer cloth design of swimsuit tempts the watcher to see her skin under it and the small jewelry with her wet hair gave her the seductive look. The first thing he did was dialing his secretary's number and ordered, "Whoever brought Aarvi's clothes is fired."

He hung up the call baffling Secretary Wen in his room. Then he searched for her beach wrap but found a piece of cloth that looked like a scarf. It could hardly cover anything.

Aarvi couldn't understand what he was scanning the wrap style beach sarong. She grabbed it and tied around her waist looking at him glaring at her. "What did I do to earn your frown?"

Aaron blurted out, "How can you be comfortable wearing this?"

She realized why the angry stare. It was her first time trying that style swimsuit but she teased him, "There is another set, two-piece bikini. I will try that after lunch."

Aaron: "..." He realized she wore the better among the two.

Seeing him uncomfortable, Aarvi stepped closer and saw him take a step back, "Am I so ugly?" It was fun to tease Aaron who had no choice but to control himself from scolding her or saying the wrong thing to her.

'If you are ugly, then every next person is uglier.' Aaron thought to himself and couldn't understand why she was removing his blazer. "Aarvi..."

Aarvi took her own time letting his mind wander about every single thought seeing her while she bit her lips to control her laughter seeing him way too cautious and wore his blazer that reached her thighs, "Happy?"

"I could have given it." Aaron followed her being prey to her wordless mischievous game.

Aarvi retorted cheekily, "But there is no fun in that."

"Don't play with fire!"

Aarvi paused and turned to him, "I am not water to evaporate..." Aarvi's eyes averted glancing at a gorgeous lady in a bikini intently watching them, "Doctor Rivas, do you know how to scare with a smile?"

"Huh?" He knows her sweet smile is dangerous but scaring others?

Aarvi peeked aside, her sweet and sinless smile appeared on her petite face. Her two crescents and her pink cheeks gave him an urge to caress. Then she kissed her palm for sending a flying kiss and faintly waved it.

Aaron turned to see who it was and saw Grace Wells trembling profusely and slumped on the ground crawling back. Then Aarvi's smile sweetened that panicked Grace and she scurried away. She fell twice but didn't stop causing Aarvi to chuckle.

"Do you really want me in your life? Even after seeing me do this live." She shook her head and turned to leave but Aaron wrapped his hand around her waist pulling her to him.

Aarvi's breath twitched and she tried to get away from their closeness. His fingers caressed her velvety soft cheek gazing at her widened eyes, "I never had a doubt on my choice."

He lowered his head and drifted his nose near her neck without touching her skin while his hot breath fell on it to stop her from playing him.

'How could I even think of him as submissive?' She thought to herself looking at his deep passionate gaze. If his peaceful face calms her, his gaze is dangerously penetrating to capture her soul.

"I am careful because I still haven't got a place in your heart. Don't dare to play again and again. I might create a place there with a different way.." His deep hypnotic voice spread her blush till the neck without daring to provoke him further.
