Chapter 1: Shalini's wedding trip ignites forbidden passion
"Namaskar Baba." I greeted my father-in-law before bending down to touch his feet as a customary display of respect towards an elder. I was standing at the gate of the large house owned by my in-laws.
"Ayushaman Bhava!" He blessed me, placing his hand on my head.
As I stood up, he gently held my shoulders and pulled me into an embrace. I happily hugged him, but a moment later, I noticed his hug tightening around me. I felt my breasts pressing into his chest, a little more than necessary. I felt odd, but I held on, thinking maybe he was a bit too happy to see me. The embrace lingered a few seconds more than needed.
As we parted, we smiled at each other before he called in one of the house help to carry my luggage.
Vishwanath Deshmukh, or Baba as we all call him, is my father-in-law. He is the patriarch of our family. The family owns large tracts of farmland around the village. It also owns a large successful dairy processing unit with over 300 cows and buffaloes. The family also runs a school and junior college. Children from nearby villages and towns attend the school. All this makes the Deshmukh family very wealthy and influential.
