She had been lifted onto the bed by Jairaj after the humiliating floor examination, her body still tingling from his rough fingers and the sharp slaps on her exposed pussy.

Jairaj stood tall for a moment, his broad back to her as he bolted the door firmly. The sound echoed like a final seal on her fate. He turned around, his presence filling the room. Rita sat on the edge of the bed, her ghunghat still covering her face completely, as per the strict family customs. He had already seen and touched her most private parts, but her face remained hidden .....a symbol of her modesty as the new sanskari bahu.
