Zartasha took a deep breath as she stood before the full-length mirror, taking in the breathtaking sight of her wedding dress. The grey net-tailed maxi was a masterpiece of embroidery and sequin work, adorning the fabric in intricate patterns that shimmered and sparkled under the light. Each stitch was a testament to the skill and artistry of the designers who had brought her vision to life.
The dress flowed gracefully around her, accentuating her slender figure and enhancing her natural beauty. Delicate lace adorned the edges of the dress, adding a touch of elegance and charm.
Zartasha's heart swelled with joy and anticipation as she adorned herself with the final touch: a silver sequin chatta dupatta. The dupatta, draped over her head and shoulders, showcased a beautiful pattern of silver sequins scattered all over, creating a mesmerizing effect as they caught the light. The edges of the dupatta were adorned with a delicate lace trim that added an ethereal touch.
In the room, a team of talented makeup artists bustled around, adding the finishing touches to Zartasha's radiant appearance. Their nimble fingers expertly applied makeup, accentuating her features and bringing out her natural glow. Soft, romantic curls cascaded down her back, framing her face and adding a touch of whimsy to her overall look. Zartasha's eyes sparkled with excitement as she watched her transformation, feeling like a princess ready to step into her own fairy tale.
As the makeup artists put the final touches on her look, the door to the room opened slowly, and in walked Shahmeer. His eyes widened at the sight of Zartasha, standing there in all her dazzling beauty.
"I"ll g insane soon" He thought.
He was dressed in a tailored black tuxedo, the crisp fabric fitting him perfectly, emphasizing his tall, commanding presence.
Shahmeer took a few steps closer, his gaze fixed on Zartasha. "You look absolutely breathtaking,my love." he whispered, his voice filled with awe and love. Kissing her forehead he took her hand and moved towards venue.
As esteemed guests arrived at the lavish reception venue, they were immediately captivated by the drizzling sight before them. The grand hall had been transformed into a paradise of floral enchantment, where magnificent centerpieces towered over tables adorned with delicate garlands. The air was infused with the sweet fragrance of exotic blooms, meticulously arranged in a luxurious blend of gold and white. Crystal chandeliers bathed the space in a soft, ethereal glow, casting enchanting shadows across the room.
At the center of it all stood a breathtaking backdrop, shimmering with golden sequins that caught the light with every movement. In bold letters, the names of the couple, Zartasha and Shahmeer, were emblazoned upon it. Lavish floral arrangements adorned their chairs, exuding an air of opulence, while a magnificent crystal candelabra hung gracefully overhead, casting a warm and romantic light upon the scene.
As the evening unfolded, guests mingled, their conversations blending harmoniously with the melodies drifting through the air. Waiters elegantly circulated, presenting trays of drinks. The tantalizing aroma of delectable cuisine emanated from the meticulously curated buffet tables, teasing the senses and whetting the appetite of those in attendance.
The doors of the hall opened, and all eyes were glued to catch a glimpse of the grand entry of Shahmeer Zaidi, the youngest businessman and billionaire, accompanied by the girl who had captured his heart. Daughters of prominent families eagerly awaited his arrival, hoping to lay eyes on the charismatic young man.
Amidst the lively festivities, Shahmeer made his way through the crowd, his arm proudly entwined with his radiant bride, Zartasha. His head held high, his posture straight, he exuded an air of authority. Zartasha, with a sweet and nervous smile, walked elegantly by his side, as Shahmeer had advised her earlier, "It's your event, and you have to remember your place. Just be the one who you are, and I am always with you."
Both met with the Zaidi family, while Zartasha's family also stood present. Her mamu patted her head, and her mami lightly hugged her with a fake smile to show the world. Her phupho's eyes welled up with tears, seeing her niece smiling so genuinely. What more could she ask for?
With grace and confidence, Shahmeer introduced Zartasha to his relatives and esteemed business clients, her infectious warmth leaving a lasting impression on all who encountered her.
The strains of a melodic music began to fill the air, and a hushed anticipation fell over the gathering. Shahmeer, his eyes never straying from Zartasha's radiant gaze, extended his hand towards her, his heart brimming with love.
"May I have this dance, my beautiful bride?" Shahmeer's voice resonated with affection and devotion extending his hand towards her.
Zartasha found herself in a dilemma. She didn't know how to dance.
"My love, I told you before, I am always with you," he reassured her upon sensing her nervousness. The corners of her mouth curved into an enamored smile as she delicately placed her hand in his, her eyes shining with pure happiness.
Together, they glided onto the dance floor, the embodiment of elegance and unity. As they moved in perfect harmony to the enchanting music, their steps guided by the rhythm of their hearts, their guests looked on with admiration and awe.
Throughout the dance, Shahmeer and Zartasha shared stolen glances, their souls intertwining with every graceful turn. With each step, they were surrounded by the love and well-wishes of their cherished family and friends. The dance floor seemed to be their own private world, where time stood still and their love soared beyond the realm of ordinary existence.
As the dance came to an end, thunderous applause filled the air, a testament to the profound connection and unwavering commitment shared by Zartasha and Shahmeer. The celebration continued, enveloping the newlyweds in an atmosphere of joy and jubilation, as they embarked on a new chapter of their lives together, hand in hand, amidst a world brimming with boundless love, prosperity, and endless possibilities.
Zartasha returned to the grand mansion accompanied by her mother-in-law, as Shahmeer bid her farewell to attend to his business associates who had traveled from afar. Recognizing her exhaustion, he decided it was best for her to retreat from the social gathering. Grateful for his consideration, Zartasha completed her evening routine and adorned herself in a simple, comfortable dress. To her delight, she didn't experience any rashes this time, as Shahmeer had taken the initiative to send her an alternative when she was getting ready. Her sister-in-law later informed her that Shahmeer had even replaced the jewelry selection, a gesture that made her blush with delight.
Lost in her thoughts, Zartasha busied herself arranging the items on the dressing table when suddenly, Shahmeer embraced her from behind. His presence caught her off guard, as she hadn't noticed his entry into the room. His coat was discarded, revealing an unbuttoned shirt with slightly tousled hair and rolled-up sleeves—an incredibly captivating sight.
Resting his chin upon her shoulder, he gazed at her reflection in the mirror. Overwhelmed by his proximity, she shyly lowered her gaze, feeling a pleasant tingling sensation coursing through her body. His grip on her hand tightened, a silent gesture of his struggle to maintain control, as his other hand settled on her belly. He feared his intensity might frighten her, recognizing her delicate nature. Yet, her sheer beauty drove him to the edge, leaving him yearning for more. Unable to contain himself any longer, he gently turned her to face him, startling her momentarily. However, his subsequent action caused her to freeze in place—Shahmeer kissed her.
Realizing her initial hesitation, he pulled her closer by her waist, urging her to reciprocate. Encouraged by his urgency, she tentatively followed his lead, her lips parting to accommodate his gentle nibbling. A soft moan escaped her lips, evoking a mix of desire and elation within him.
With their lips parting, they locked eyes, Zartasha's displaying a hint of surprise blended with profound love. Shahmeer's gaze mirrored an overwhelming adoration and longing.
"You are one of the greatest blessings in my life," he whispered, pressing a tender kiss upon her forehead. Bliss, she felt at that moment. Tears welled up in her eyes.
"I don't ever want to see them again," he assured her, tenderly wiping away her tears.
That night, they sought solace in each other's embrace, drifting into a peaceful sleep, ready to embark on a new life together.
