CHAPTER 7 - DESIRES

Riccardo's POV:

I came inside the room not able to control myself. I'm sure if was there beside her even for 1 more minute, it would have been a disaster. I gulped down still feeling how my hormones were at a high level. Shit, she just moaned tasting the pasta and here I'm having the hard. Not able to control myself more, I went into the bathroom and turned the cold shower on leaving the cold water to relax my body. But, my mind started to play with her face and her moans.

I have never had this kind of desire for anyone. This torture is completely new to me as I've spent my whole life in my business and my mafia. Even when I saw people in the mafia having their games in the clubs and the girls completely naked, I was just like a hormone-less person. But, now this desire for her is making me insane just in minutes. My body is still shaking with this newfound desire and I just increased the shower.

After standing under the freezing shower for more than an hour, I became relaxed as I gradually shifted my thoughts and as the tension left my body. I came out of the shower with the strong pain in my head and my mouth felt completely dried even after that cold shower. I changed my clothes into the normal T-shirt and joggers again as I still had to spend almost 20 hours in this jet. I sat on the bed gulped down the complete jug of water and threw my body against the bed which felt like heaven.

This completely new torture and desire, made me question my existence all these years and this new girl inside my jet is already like drowning in my body. Till an hour before, I have never missed my schedule of planned and routine life. Just with her entrance, everything has changed. I know I have no rights and reasons to blame her, but still, the thing she is doing to me is becoming my death. After experiencing this new torture, I didn't have any interest in reading the business file. I just checked some things in the mafia and closed my eyes exactly at 5 in the morning. I don't know what would happen when I woke up but still, I liked these changes as the thought that someone was near me crept inside my hidden heart.

*****

I woke with a grumble as I heard the sound of announcements. I looked at the time on my mobile and when I caught the time, I jerked up from the bed in shock and surprise. It's already 12…and that means I have slept more than 6 hours. Impossible…not even when I was physically sick, I have slept more than 4 hours. Then how did I sleep today…that too in the jet?

Shaking my thoughts away, I remembered the announcement from the pilot that we had landed at Keflavik International Airport. I got ragged as I didn't know why they possibly landed in Iceland even without asking me. Though I guessed that we are taking the Canada-Iceland-London –Italy route, we don't have any need to land anywhere because the complete fuel tank will be enough to fly to more than these places. As I opened the room door with full force, someone pushed me aside with full force and ran inside the washroom.

It's none other than the crazy girl and I wonder what had possibly happened. I was going to go with her when I noticed both the pilots were looking at me with slight fear and confusion.

"How dare you to land even without asking me?" I yelled in a low voice because she was thinking of me as my friend.

"Sir…we asked permission from mam and also we need to fill the fuel just in case of emergency," He said and I wanted to punch him but I don't know why I stopped.

I just signaled them to go and they left the jet after opening the door. Mam…what is that? And how dare she give permission like that?

"Can you please change that look on your face? When your head pilot came to ask permission, he had first knocked on your door. You didn't open, so he woke me up. I too tried knocking on your door and when I peeped through the keyhole, I saw you sleeping peacefully and I didn't want to wake you up. So, I gave them permission" She said coming out of the washroom I understood that she wanted to use the restroom and I had been sleeping locking the door from inside and also as the pilot's washroom are in too front.

I shook my head not knowing how to behave with her and how she knew what was running inside my mind. I saw her going towards the door and that's when I remembered something.

"Did you peep through the keyhole?" I asked with a wide mouth and she turned and looked at me up and down before heaving a sigh and stepping outside the jet.

Why did she give such a look to me?

With a confused mind, I went outside after freshening. I saw the airport authorities were waiting for me in some distance. They must have been informed. When they saw me, they came and greeted me and they were talking to me when I was searching for where this woman went. I didn't see her anywhere and I became tensed a little. She probably doesn't know this place. Where the hell did she go?

I asked the authorities about her and they said they had come here only a few minutes ago and they didn't see any girl here as this is a private space in the International Airport. I started to search for her with the authorities following me and I went to the airport lounge searching for her but she was nowhere to be seen. I also didn't see my pilots anywhere. As I came to the public place, the paparazzi started to surround me and the commotion around me just increased my panic.

Even after searching for her for more than 10 minutes, I couldn't find her and we almost came to the outside of the airport. I caught the sight of my pilots standing outside the small store and I ran to them. They both gulped seeing me and the authorities. But before I asked them anything, I saw Ishita coming outside the shop with a paper bag in her hands. I took a deep breath and noticed that she had changed her dress and that's when I noticed that this is a dress store. She is now wearing a pink floral long gown with a brown jerkin but she looked like a model in that.

She looked at me and the officers confusingly and then she just ignored us and turned towards my pilots. She smiled at them while I was fuming in anger. She just made me panic the most and now is ignoring me. Dammit…woman. I was going to thrash at her but then I noticed that paparazzi were coming towards us. And again before I tell anything to her, she started to talk to the pilots.

"Brandon and Marco, do you guys want to try Skyr? It's a famous yogurt here and I love that most" She asked them while I looked at her in Awe.

So, she has been here before. I noticed my pilots nodding their heads at her when I remembered something. Did she just call them with their first names and when did this happen? I saw her running towards the small store and thankfully the paparazzi was stopped by the airport security guards. This is the first time in my life that I'm afraid that someone will see me with someone, which is her. I'm afraid because I don't want to involve her in my matters and also I don't have enough time to answer the public's crazy questions and read through comments and reply to them.

I watched her getting three medium tubs of yogurt from the store and paying that old man who was smiling sweetly at her. Not to mention that she is also smiling lovingly at him. When did I start to notice all these small details? I shook my thoughts when I saw her walking towards us. She gave one yogurt to the head pilot and another one to the co-pilot and she started to eat another one. Did she even take me as a person?

"I'll return your money when my friend comes to pick me up," She said to the head pilot Brandon and I understood that she borrowed money from him.

"No need, Ishita. Keep this dress and yogurt as the gift from your newfound friend" I heard Brandon replying and I myself noticed that my nerves are poking out from my fist.

I saw her thinking something for some time and then she nodded her head enthusiastically.

"We…need…to…leave. Bring her to the jet" I spoke in my normal dangerous tone to which the pilots nodded their heads terrified and she just ignored me.

I left the place all the while cursing myself for nothing and trying to control my kind of anger, I don't even have any idea, towards my pilots. I went inside the jet not even caring about the authorities waiting for my response as my mood was not good even to talk to anyone. I sat on the couch and after a solid ten minutes, I saw her coming inside and I knew that she only came with the pilots.

She just sat on the same couch as there is no other couch here and placed that paper bag which I guess is her old dress on the chair. I understood she likes to sit on the couch more than chairs. After that around 10 minutes, I heard the announcement of takeoff to Rome and we both had to digest each other for the next 12 hours. I stood up to leave as I saw her licking the yogurt in the small spoon that was attached to that tub as I didn't want to feel that pain of desire again. But, I heard her throat-clearing sound and turned towards her.

"This tub is for you," She said and I saw the new tub on the table in front, and for a moment I thought that was tricking me.

Watching me looking at the tub with eagle eyes, she opened the tub and showed me.

"This is not the empty one," She said trying to control her laugh while I became confused with my behavior.

I went and sat in the same place and started to eat the yogurt while she switched on the TV and started the series in the name of Harry Potter and I surely don't have any idea about it. As the movie runs, I finished the tub in my hands but I wanted to ask her something which is poking me.

"Why did you borrow money from them?" I asked her and saw her full concentration on the screen.

"My mobile, my purse, my cards, and complete luggage is with Noah. We thought that the flight was only 9 hours and I'd sleep, so I wouldn't need anything. But, now I borrowed money from them as I wanted to change my outfit and eat skyr. You'll treat me as the debtor if I borrow money from you and I don't like to be the one, so I asked them for money" she said giving me the answer to my real question at last.

Yeah, I just wanted to ask her why she didn't borrow money from me when all women want only that or my body. But, hearing her reply, I felt hurt. Though I would've played with her like how I played with the food I would've never thought of her as a debtor. I know I shouldn't feel hurt but then I ignored that.

"Have you been here before?" I asked her again just wanting to know.

"Yeah, a year ago Noah had a business meeting here and he dragged me out of my house in the middle of the night to accompany him," She said and this Noah was seriously getting on my nerves.

The only name that is coming out of her mouth is Noah…Noah…Noah…Doesn't Adele is also her friend? Why he is so close to her? I know shouldn't think like this but again I couldn't control my brain. As she just continued watching that movie, I too started to watch that not knowing what to do or what to think.
