It had been a week since Bella's first day as a junior resident doctor, and life had become a whirlwind of responsibilities. The mornings started early, with Princess Rose cooing in her crib while Bella got ready for the day ahead. Vidyut, ever the doting husband and father, had taken it upon himself to ensure Bella didn’t miss a single meal and always left home with a smile.

This morning was no different. As Bella buttoned up her white coat in front of the mirror, she felt a pair of strong arms wrap around her waist from behind.

"Leaving already?" Vidyut's sleepy voice rumbled against her neck, pressing a gentle kiss just below her ear.

Bella sighed, leaning into his warmth. "Duty calls, Mr. Suryavanshi."

He chuckled. "I hate that coat. It takes you away from me."

She turned in his arms, cupping his face. "But it brings me closer to my dreams, Vidyut. And you’re the one who pushed me to follow them."

Vidyut smirked, resting his forehead against hers. "I regret it sometimes... especially when I wake up to an empty bed."

Bella giggled, swatting his chest. "Drama king."

Their sweet moment was interrupted by a soft whimper from the crib. Both of them turned their attention to Princess Rose, who blinked at them with sleepy eyes. Vidyut picked her up effortlessly, cradling her against his chest.

"How about we skip work today and just stay in bed with our little princess?" he suggested.

Bella shook her head. "Not happening. I have rounds to cover and a presentation with Dr. Mehta today."

Vidyut pouted, bouncing Rose gently in his arms. "Fine, but promise me you'll call if you get time."

Bella kissed his cheek. "Always."

At the Hospital

The day passed in a blur of patients, rounds, and medical discussions. Bella was adjusting well to her new routine, but there were moments when she missed home terribly—missed the soft giggles of her daughter, missed the way Vidyut would randomly text her during the day.

During a short lunch break, she found herself scrolling through her gallery, looking at pictures of Vidyut and Rose. Just then, her phone buzzed with a message.

Vidyut: “Missing you, doctor. Your patient here is refusing to eat without you.”

Bella smiled, quickly replying.

Bella: “Tell my patient to behave. I’ll be home soon.”

Just as she put her phone down, Dr. Mehta walked in, observing her with a knowing smile. "Thinking about your little one?"

Bella nodded. "It’s hard, ma’am. Balancing everything."

Dr. Mehta sat beside her. "It takes time, Bella. But you’re doing great. And from what I hear, you have a very supportive husband."

Bella’s eyes softened. "I do. He’s been my biggest support."

"Lean on him when you need to," Dr. Mehta advised. "And don’t forget to take care of yourself too."

Bella nodded, feeling a little more reassured.

Back Home

As soon as Bella entered the house, she was greeted by the aroma of delicious home-cooked food. Vidyut walked out of the kitchen, holding a tiny spoon in his hand, trying to feed Princess Rose, who had somehow managed to smear mashed carrots all over herself.

"Welcome back, doctor," Vidyut grinned, looking exasperated. "Your daughter is a menace."

Bella laughed, setting down her bag and walking over to them. "Let me guess... she refused to eat again?"

"Refused would be an understatement," Vidyut sighed. "She thinks food is a toy."

Bella kissed Rose’s chubby cheek and took over. “Let mama try.”

Vidyut watched as Bella expertly fed their daughter, his heart swelling with admiration. Once the baby was fed and put to sleep, he pulled Bella into the kitchen and handed her a plate of warm food.

"You’re eating first," he said firmly. "Then we talk about your day."

Bella sat down, feeling grateful beyond words. "I don’t deserve you," she whispered.

Vidyut leaned in, brushing a strand of hair behind her ear. "You deserve the world, Bella."

They spent the rest of the evening talking about their day, with Bella sharing hospital stories and Vidyut updating her on every little thing Rose had done in her absence. Laughter filled the air, and for a moment, Bella forgot about the exhaustion.

Later that night, as they lay in bed with Rose sleeping soundly between them, Bella turned to Vidyut.

"Do you think I’m being a good mother?" she asked, her voice laced with vulnerability.

Vidyut pulled her close, pressing a kiss to her forehead. "You’re the best mother, Bella. And the best wife. Don’t ever doubt yourself."

Tears pricked Bella’s eyes. "I just want to do everything right."

Vidyut caressed her face gently. "You already are, my love. And you’re not alone in this. We’re in this together."

Bella smiled, resting her head on his chest, listening to the steady rhythm of his heartbeat. In that moment, she knew—no matter how tough things got, she had the most loving husband by her side.

....

The soft glow of the nightlight bathed the room in a serene warmth as Bella cradled Princess Rose in her arms, nursing her with a gentle rhythm. The tiny infant suckled peacefully, her tiny fingers wrapped securely around Bella’s pinky. Vidyut sat beside them, his gaze fixed on the beautiful sight before him—his wife, glowing in the soft moonlight, their daughter nestled against her chest.

A tender smile tugged at his lips as he traced a gentle finger over Rose’s chubby cheek. "She’s our little miracle, isn't she?" he whispered.

Bella looked up, love shining in her eyes. "She is," she murmured, brushing a soft kiss against her baby’s forehead.

Vidyut leaned in, resting his chin on Bella's shoulder. "And so are you," he added, his lips grazing her skin in a way that made her shiver.

Bella chuckled softly. "You never miss a chance, do you?"

"Not when my wife looks so irresistible," he murmured, his hand tracing lazy circles over her waist.

Once Princess Rose had drifted into a deep sleep, Bella carefully placed her in the beautifully adorned crib beside their bed. She adjusted the soft pink curtains around it, ensuring their little princess was safe and snug.

The moment she turned around, Vidyut was right there, his intense eyes locked onto hers. He reached out, pulling her gently against his chest. "Finally, you're all mine," he whispered, his lips brushing against her temple.

Bella sighed, melting into his embrace. "I'm always yours," she whispered back, her hands resting on his chest.

Vidyut cupped her face, his thumb tracing her lower lip. "I missed you today," he confessed.

Bella smiled softly. "You saw me this morning."

"Not enough," he murmured before capturing her lips in a slow, lingering kiss. His hands roamed down her back, pulling her closer, feeling the warmth of her body against his.

Bella moaned into the kiss, her fingers threading through his hair as she pressed herself into him. The intensity between them built as Vidyut’s lips trailed down her jaw to her neck, sucking gently at the sensitive spot he knew would drive her crazy.

Her breathing grew ragged, and she clutched onto him tightly. "Vidyut..." she gasped as his hands traced the curve of her waist, making their way under her nightgown.

He pulled back just enough to look into her eyes, his own dark with desire. "Tell me if you're too tired," he whispered.

Bella shook her head, her eyes filled with longing. "I need you, Vidyut."

That was all the permission he needed. In one swift motion, he lifted her into his arms and carried her to the bed, laying her down with a tenderness that sent shivers down her spine.

Vidyut hovered over her, his hands expertly tracing every inch of her body. He pulled the fabric of her nightgown up, revealing her bare skin to his hungry gaze. His lips followed his hands, kissing the swell of her breasts, his tongue flicking against her sensitive nipples.

Bella arched into him, her moans filling the quiet room. "Vidyut..." she breathed, her hands clutching his shoulders as he worshipped her body with an almost reverent touch.

He continued to tease and explore her, his hands slipping lower, finding the spot that made her body tremble. Bella gasped, her body responding to his every touch, every kiss.

"You're so beautiful," he whispered, his lips trailing lower, leaving a path of kisses across her abdomen. "So perfect."

She reached for him, pulling him back up to her lips, kissing him deeply. Their bodies molded together, the heat between them growing with every second. Vidyut’s hands caressed her thighs, spreading them gently as he settled between them, his touch igniting fires within her.

"Are you sure?" he asked one last time, his forehead resting against hers.

Bella cupped his face. "I’m yours, Vidyut... always."

With that, he claimed her completely, their bodies moving in perfect harmony. The room filled with whispers of love, gasps of pleasure, and the soft creak of the bed beneath them.

Afterward, Bella lay in his arms, her body spent but her heart full. Vidyut held her close, pressing tender kisses along her forehead and cheeks.

"You okay?" he asked softly, his fingers brushing through her hair.

Bella nodded sleepily. "Perfect."

With a gentle smile, he helped her clean up, applying a soothing ointment to her sensitive areas. As he pulled the covers over them, he rested his hand protectively over her belly.

"I love you," he whispered, his lips brushing against her ear.

Bella sighed contentedly, curling into his embrace. "I love you too, Vidyut."

With their little princess sleeping soundly beside them, and their hearts overflowing with love, they drifted into a peaceful slumber, wrapped in each other’s warmth.
