All Chapters of Being His Wife: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

After the sumptuous and very eventful dinner, Damien and I headed up to our rooms. Just when I was about getting into my room, he pulled me towards him. I fell into his chest while he held me close and steadied me in his arms. "There's something I want to talk to you about, can you come in here later?" He said pointing his thumb towards his room. "Uh sure. I'll just go change into my pajamas." I said and he nodded before releasing me. I pushed my door open and got into my room. I picked up my phone and saw that my dad had seen my message and replied. I put a call across to him then I put the phone on loud speaker before placing it on the closet's island while I changed out of my clothes. "Miel." He said as soon as he picked up. (Honey.) "Hola Papa." I said, glad that I was finally hearing from him (Hello dad.) "How are you?" He asked. "I'm okay, how are you?" I said. "I'm well." He said lowly. "Are you sure? You don't sound so good." I pointed out, letting worry seep through m

Ariana's POV; "Shit." I heard him cuss under his breath as the camera flashes kept coming. He signalled for his guards to come closer and then he instructed that they put a call through to one of the drivers to come get us. Damien had already pulled me to his side and had my face down. When one of his guards came and told us that we had a car ready for us, he pulled me up and got us outside. The flashes increased as we stepped out of the cafe and headed towards the vehicle. I slid in quickly and he followed me while a guard shut the door behind us. I shook my head. "This is just crazy. It's almost like someone tips them off whenever we're around." I said aloud. "You think?" He raised his eyebrows amusedly. "So I'm right after all? You celebs go through a lot." I said with an exaggerated tired sigh. "You're a celeb too you know." He said and I turned to him. "That's because I'm married to you, nothing else makes me a celebrity." I pointed out. "Don't think about it l

Damien's POV;It took a lot to get my mind off her because she looked way too beautiful. I knew I had picked the perfect dress the moment I saw her in it. She looked drop dead gorgeous. And the way she carried herself with so much poise and grace, I could not help but keep my eyes glued to her all through the day.We were currently on our way to the wedding reception. Seeing her cry earlier did things to me. There was a high possibility that she was thinking about our wedding all through and the fact that it brought tears to her eyes gave me mixed signals. Was she crying because she reminisced on how beautiful our wedding was? Or, was she feeling like it was the day I trapped her and she knew there was no turning back? I honestly did not know what to think. I really just wanted to enjoy the moments I spent with her while it lasted and though I knew she did not plan on being around for much longer than she was supposed to, I was willing to give her all the comfort and care I could give

Damien's POV; "If I agree to this arrangement, you'll have to tell me about your nightmares." She said. Her words sent alarm bells ringing in my head. I stayed still in silence and waited for her to speak but she never did. I really wanted her to discard whatever she said as a joke but her silence proved she was not joking at all, she meant it. "Ariana-" I tried dissuading her but she did not even let me speak further. "Damien, you have to tell me, please. I want to to help you." She cut me off. I sighed heavily and looked up at her. "I'll tell you but not now. Give me some time." I said, trying to not crawl back in fear of telling her how dark my past was. "Alright, do I have your word?" She asked. "You do." I assured. "Let's get some sleep." She said, I sat up so she could slide further into the bed. When she got comfortable, I brought her close and sniffed her sweet lavender scent till sleep drew me in. *** I woke up first as usual and saw that she had her back to me.

Ariana's POV; It was the tenth of December already, it was my birthday. I just turned twenty four but I did not feel any different. It was just another day for me. I woke up to some calls and lots of messages. My father called and even sang for me. That was one of my favorite moments from my birthday, I was just sad I could not spend it with him present but he assured that he was there in spirit. It seemed like no one knew it was my birthday around here and even Damien left for work early, so he must have forgotten about it. I did not let it get to me though, it's just a birthday. I went to the office and got about my day until Stephanie came in with a cake to wish me. From the looks of things, our department had a tradition to make every worker feel special on their birthday. It was a really sweet gesture as all my coworkers wished me warmly. I had just received a call from Damien while I was working a little after lunch time. He said that I had to be home early because we had som
