was not an object that he could simply acquire. He spoke like the womaniser she thought he was. He thought he could get any woman he wanted at the snap of his fingers. This made her angry. At the same time, his words painted him as alpha male who knew what he wanted. He stared at her with so much desire in his eyes. She felt butterflies circling in her stomach. Heat crept into her face. She had never felt like this before.
     
    Amir cupped her face in his hands. He couldn't take it anymore. So many times, he had ignored the urge to take her in his arms. He leaned in and kissed her softly on the lips. Soraya was caught off guard. This she did not expect. She hit him in the chest twice and tried to push him away but he did not flinch. He kept kissing her. She stopped fighting him as her arms found their way around his neck. He pulled her closer to him and thrust his tongue into her mouth. Soraya kissed him back as she stroked the back of his neck.
     
    Soraya pulled back when realisation sank in. She was panting, her face was flushed and her heart was beating 300 beats a minute. She felt like her body was on fire. Just his lips had ignited her. “What. Are. You. Doing?” She managed to say. She was still out of breath.
     
    “I told you that I was going to claim you,” Amir replied. His voice had deepened. Soraya ran her hand through her hair and blinked a couple times. Claim me again! she thought.
     
    “Stop playing games,” she told him hoping he wouldn’t hear the tremble in her voice.
     
    “I'm not playing games. I told you that I want you. Only you. I am not giving up.”
     
    She did not even know what to say. She did not know if she wanted him or not. An announcement from the main hall interrupted their awkward silence. It was time for the toasts and Amir was to give the first one. Soraya walked off. Amir lingered in the corridor for a few moments. He had always wanted to kiss her but he had no idea it was going to be that amazing. He wanted her even more now.
     
    Amir entered the room acting as if nothing had happened. “Thank you, everyone, for coming to my stubborn brother's wedding,” Amir said as he began his speech. “If you know my brother, then you know he is obstinate. He doesn't bend his will or succumb to anyone. A year ago, the idea of marriage was out of the question to him. He concentrated on work and family. We thank God for this beautiful woman and my best friend, Sara. If not for her, I would have never had a niece. There was no hope for Tariq,” he went on. Tariq sat there frowning at his brother. He was painting him to be the most hard-headed person ever known to exist. Sara was laughing. She knew too well, how stubborn he was.
     
    “Sara is the only person to have ever broken past his determination. I don't know how she did it, but we commend her.” Amir turned his attention to Soraya. “But my brother is wise. He found a woman who is bold enough to challenge his character and help him become a better man. If you find a woman who makes you smile simply at hearing her name, looks adorable when she’s angry, has eyes filled with innocence, but at the same time is intelligent, beautiful and elegant, never let her go.” Amir raised his glass. Soraya felt her face turning red. It was as if he was talking about her. “Cheers,” Amir said and took a sip. Everyone clinked their glasses together and drank. Soraya turned to her glass and downed half of it. Her nerves were all over the place.

    Malik turned to see what Amir had been staring at so intently. He saw his sister. He ignored it assuming that there was nothing to it. After his speech, Fiddah gave one as well. She mostly spoke about how beautiful their union was. How very happy she was to see them together. They were made for each other. The reason why Tariq never married was that he hadn't met Sara yet. He was fated to be with her. Everyone clapped after she was finished.
