Chapter, 4

Celine's POV.

Jace and I arrived at the hotel room as we had drunk about two bottles in the car.

I was already intoxicated, and I kept mumbling words that I didn't understand.

Jace wasn't drunk, so he carried me, and I heard him whisper in my ear, "This is so unlike you, babe. You got drunk just by two bottles, and you normally finished up to five bottles in a day without getting drunk."

"What?!" I gasped in his arms, laughing, and I reminded myself to behave well, not knowing that I said it out loudly.

"I have to be my sister, you know, trying to mimic her now that she is not around. I miss her so much," I said, and Jace looked at my face as he brought me into the hotel room that he wanted us to use for our honeymoon.

"Why not take me home?" I asked him, and he smiled.

"We are home already. Seems like you are too drunk. We are in our house, my room, which is now our bedroom," Jace gently placed me on the bed, and I thought he was taking me to a hotel for our honeymoon.

"I thought," I hiccupped. "I thought you'd take me to a hotel for us to have our honeymoon."

I lay on the bed as I was so dizzy to sit up.

Jace rose and stripped off his shirt as I tried to act sober and not drunk.

"Yes," He said, taking off his clothes.

"We have our reception there. But you know that I am a titled man and a politician, which I told you about. So I cannot camp there as you wish. I love to have my privacy, and that's why I brought you home," Jace sat on the bed and helped me take off my shoes.

I could feel the soft touches of his hands on my feet, gently removing my shoes, and he spoke to me softly.

"It's our wedding night, Clara. I know how much you desire for this night to arrive." Jace's excited voice filled my ears as he dropped my shoes aside.

Seriously, I had no idea about what my sister and her boyfriend had done..

Had they been intimate before? I didn't know, and I was kind of nervous about it.

"Clara," Jace brought his face closer to mine, and I inhaled his earthy scent that made me feel so relaxed and giving me assurance that I was safe.

"What are you thinking about? Are you asleep? You don't have to fall asleep yet, as the night is just getting started.. Wait, let me prepare your bath and help you out of this dress," Jace rose from the bed, and I was so nervous.

Help me out of my dress? I pondered as it dawned on me what might happen next.

I can do so by myself. I tried to sit up, but my intoxicated self rolled away on the bed like a leaf that lost its value. I couldn't even sit, and I blame myself for drinking so much alcohol when I could have told Jace that I don't like wines, not to mention Champagne.

I had tasted it before when I saw my twin sister using it as a bottle of water on most of her celebration days.

She popped several bottles and drank them like it was water, and yet, I couldn't withstand two glasses.

"There you are," Jace's voice reached me, and I felt his hand move to my back to strip off my dress.

"Jace, can we not have sex tonight?" I asked him, and he froze as he heard my inquiry.

"Why? But you have always wanted us to have sex. Why not tonight?" Jace sounded so disappointed, and I swallowed hard.

Should I tell him that I am not Clara, his real fiancée?

"I don't know. I am just shy," I told him. And honestly, I haven't had sex too. I was too decent and waiting for the right time, as I was mostly busy with my bakery shop. Although, I had kissed Martin Enzo and engaged in several foreplay with him. But we haven't had sex like real doing the do.

"Clara, I don't know why you're so anxious tonight. You have always wanted me to sleep with you, and now that it's the right time for us to do it, you want us to take a break. Well, no, because we have to make babies, and I am not getting any younger.. it wouldn't affect your modeling career, okay. And since Celine, your twin sister has traveled to help you, don't you think now is the right time for you and I to have a baby," Jace kissed my lips as he queried me, and I was speechless.

"No, Martin. I mean, Jace.."

Jace's face darkened in rage, and he asked me, "Who is Martin? Are you cheating on me, Clara? Is that why you wanted us to postpone the wedding because you have another man?"

Jace moved away from me on the bed, sounding hurt, and I immediately told him, "No, Jace. Please, don't get me wrong. I am sorry. It was a slip of the tongue. You know I am drunk."

Jace sighed and came to meet me. "Fine, just relax, let me help you have your bath."

I was silent, watching Jace help me undress, then he picked me up from the bed and took me to the bathroom to wash me up.

"Jace," I was intoxicated, calling his name, and he replied hoarsely, "Yes, my love."

"You can call me 'honey'. When do you start calling me by my name?" Jace asked me as he rubbed the soap and wet sponge over my unclad body.

"Huh," as I felt the water splashed on my head, my eyes subtly widened, and I looked at him in shock, seeing him in only his shorts.

I swiftly looked away, and Jace laughed and said, "Honestly, Clara. You are getting me confused by your behavior. Haven't you seen me naked several times? Why are you acting so shy?"

"Oh no." I knew that Jace will find out once he discovered that I am not the woman that he married.

"You got me surprised today. First, with your behavior. Secondly, your body."

"My body?" I asked him nervously as he bathed my hands and looked at me.

"Yeah. You seem more chubby, and your breasts look more bigger and fuller. Or are my eyes deceiving me? I cannot wait to suck on them," Jace said, and I looked away from him as my face flushed.

Jace helped me have my bath and switched on the shower. Once he was done bathing me, he carefully assisted me in getting out of the bathtub and told me, "Wait for me on the bed. I cannot wait to ravish you."

He shut the door and went back into the bathroom to bathe.
