Aniruddh stood there, the smirk on his face slowly giving way to a small, unwilling smile. He ran a hand through his hair, still in a daze from the kiss, the confession, and the realization that he had been so easily outsmarted. He had wanted to punish her, but she, in her own simple, honest way, had turned his punishment into a confession of love. He had been a predator, but she had become a playful, clever kitten.
He let out a short, humorless laugh. He would not be outsmarted. He would not be defeated. Not by his wife.
