"You look beautiful baby", he said kissing my face."I do?", I asked in surprise. I twirled in front of him. I knew I looked like an idiot. Heidi would never allow anyone to steal her thunder. I'm still surprised that she invited me to be her maid of honour. I knew she had offended Irene in the process. Maybe it was an attempt to impress Jake.Honestly, I never thought she was going to say yes. But she was over the moon when she heard of the proposal. She had live-streamed the occasion. She thought he was going to give her an extravagant gift or something. But this was much better. She loved Jake in her way. She made sure he looks the best as always. She always posts about her happy relationship. If there is anyone who can make her a better person or at least reduce her selfishness to an extent it is Jake.The bride was notorious already for her early exit from the wedding. So we were cautious. I caught some security which was Dane's idea I think. He wouldn't let his best friend get e
Dane had gone to meet his business associate while I was munching on the desserts. The exquisite red velvet cake should get its due mention. I closed my eyes and relished the cake."You are getting fat. You were thinner before that was the only good thing about your body", greeted a familiar voice."Hello, Ella. I don't remember asking for an opinion on my body", I said snarkily."You impertinent girl. I was only offering you a piece of advice but you don't deserve that", said Ella."Maybe you should mind your business", I said to her."Look at my daughter. She is very pretty. She lost one pound for the wedding", said Ella. I understood why my sister was looking rather pale and tired. She might die of dehydration if Ella continues to offer her bits of advice. My mental health was now getting affected too. "I see her smile. Maybe that is the reason for her beauty. She is married to Jake who makes her incredibly happy", I said to her. "There is nothing to be happy about on marrying so
We are going to meet the newlyweds today. I had initiated the idea. Dane was compelled to follow. He still tries to avoid Heidi like the poison but unfortunately, she is married to his best friend. He was about to cut off all the ties with Jake as well but I intervened. He had finally relented and agreed to have a friendship at a safe distance. I don't know what the hell he meant. Though Heidi had tried to seduce my husband when I wasn't present so it kind of makes sense. I was ready this time and selected a blue dress that complemented my complexion. Heidi wants us to dress well but never better than her.So she could simply get offended by us having a better dressing sense as well. She was safe with me in that case. My sense of dressing is so bad that I only survive with the help of my shopper and stylist.When we reached the restaurant. I saw them seated. I could see that Jake had turned his complete attention to her. He was oblivious to every pretty girl in the restaurant. She was
"Maybe we should hold off", I whispered against his lips."Hold off?", he asked confused."Wait for the wedding", I replied shyly."Do you want to?", he asked me."I heard some people do that", I said to him."That is different we are already married", he commented."But that was under duress", I said with a joke."You married me under duress?", asked Dane."Are you offended?", I asked him worried about hurting his feelings."No, you didn't but you said some truth. Maybe we should hold off", said Dane."OK", I said reluctantly. I expected a tantrum in the least bit but he was calm but like an ocean just before the storm.When he moved away I felt his hard on my thighs. I fought a moan. I was an idiot to even mention it. Who are we kidding? We are like bunnies. We can't just stop having sex.He made a move to leave. I got up disappointed. Where was he going? I thought we would talk at least."Where are you going?", I asked him."To my room. Let us not test my already thin self-control"
I had worn my prettiest but a low-necked dress. I knew it will catch his eyes soon. I had done my make-up. It was minimal and attractive. I had sauntered to his office room. I had chosen this day to seduce him because he was working from home.I knocked on the room and there was no reply. I opened the door lightly and got inside. Dane was busily working. He had noticed me. He sat leaning back on his chair. His eyes zoomed in on my displayed boobs. His eyes narrowed with desire or hunger I had no idea."It is time for dinner", I said reminding him.He closed his laptop and came towards me. I bent my face to kiss him lightly on his lips. I saw his lips forming a smile."I know what you are doing", said him."What am I doing? I asked batting my eyes to appear innocent." You are testing my control " he stated."I'm not", I said with a protest. He smiled at me for denying the truth."If you accept it then maybe I will give in", said Dane."I don't know what are you talking about", I said
Charlie had agreed to be my maid of honour. I was over the moon. During the first wedding, I was initially a maid of honour by accident but then I realised I was the bride. So my best friend couldn't be at the wedding. Long story short I had no maid of honor. So this will be the real wedding that I will remember for the rest of my life. We were already married so this was going to be the one with a priest no legal formalities were required.My sister had offered her help but I denied it. Her vision and mine are always odd. So it is better Charlie and my planner takes care with a little bit of help from me and Fathima.What I need right now is help for making my husband lose his control. It was very tough these days. Even walking around him wearing nothing hadn't caused a Crack in his defence. I now realise why he was indeed called Stone-hearted. I think he wasn't interested in me anymore. But yet he is spending so much on the wedding. It was an intimate one but still, he had left noth
"Look what the cat dragged in", said Charlie."Hello", said Dane. His voice held a certain calmness that will erupt very soon."Dane", I said. I was so surprised that was the only word I said."May I take my wife home?", he asked. But I don't think it was a request more like a command."Certainly. Wait a minute here", she asked him and dashed to me. I was still sitting on her couch dumbfounded.She bend to whisper in my ear, "Told you the seduction would work".I looked at her doubtfully. Her whisper was more like a shout-out. I gave her a look to shut up. But instead, she gave me a wide smile."Go on then it seems today is your lucky day", she said."Excuse me", I said to her before she blurts any more nonsense. I straightened my face so that I don't show any weakness anymore."I think it is time we sort this mess don't you?", he asked me."What mess?", I asked him with confused eyes."I will tell you on the way", he said to me. He was still in his wheelchair but he radiated so much
"You are quiet and I'm losing my mind here", said Dane."I don't know what to say as usual you threw a curve ball at me. Why say it now?", I asked him."Because I have to be honest with you. You have consented to be my wife. Unlike the last time I didn't want to take the choice away from you", he said."Choice of what?", I asked absently. "Choice of whether to be my bride or not", he said."You think there is a choice for me? You used to say that choice is an illusion. I think you are right", I told him."Don't say that. I'm a despicable and cynical asshole but even I wouldn't dare to corrupt you. You are far too pure for me to even touch", he said.I closed my eyes briefly. He sounds almost poetic. When I close my eyes and listen to him. It was like reading Shakespeare or Shelly. I was calmed and instantly soothed of my miseries. He couldn't have a father so cruel who could order the death of his son and his wife."Why say this now with only a week left for our wedding", I told him.
