Liam's lips were warm, welcoming and gentle, the way his lips had nibbled my bottom lips, the way our breaths had synchronized. He had gently moved his hand up my waist to balance my lying body pressing against his. Slowly we exchanged tongues, and I found my hand crawling up his face. We never wanted to stop, we were losing our breaths, but stopping was the last thing on our minds. We would nibble on each other's bottom lips while catching our breaths, with our tongues hungry for each other and promising to never stop. And we didn't. I open my eyes to the sound of my name and a light touch on my ankle. I squint my eyes immediately as the room's bright light hits my eyes. I sit up. "What?" I ask low and calmly, seeing Vilda staring at me. "I know it's still early but we have to leave" She says. I look around the room, and notice Liam's not in anymore. "Where's Liam?" I ask. "He left, and you have to too" Vilda says. Before I know it, I am leaving the really small mo

Vilda gets the door before I could, revealing a girl, I think around my age or a little bit older. She looks tired and in front of her is a trolley with bags in it. Dress bag. I arch my brows. Her hair is auburn, almost red and her enormous green eyes and doe nose is welcomed with small slips and almost faded freckles. I notice the terrified look on her face seeing Vilda in front of the door..She gasps. "Are you perhaps Mrs. Knight?" Vilda shakes her head and then takes a step to the left to reveal me. And I catch her almost invisible sigh of relief. "Mrs knight." She beams, "You're even prettier in person." I try not to smile.I mean I do get compliments like this, but hardly from females. "Thank you" I say. "Can I come in?" She asks. "Sure-"State your business first" Vilda interrupts me. "Where are my manners?" She dramatically gasps. "I am Ruby, Ruby bells, and I'll be Mrs. Knight new dress stylists" her accent makes her words a little bit fast and hard to catch "

I stay where I am and watch Liam leave my side to the podium in the room.Fuck. This is getting my nervous system crazy. "Ma'am," I hear someone call behind me, and turn around… "Here," The talk man behind me says, handing me a small but unique glass cup. "Your husband will make a toast soon" He beams as I take the glass cup from him. My husband.. The word makes my stomach churn, but I just draw a smile and nod, leaving him to walk away. I watch as everyone gets their cup filled with wine, and I clutch my cup to myself as I turn to Liam who has been speaking for a while. "It's an honor having you here tonight, believe me, it's really an honor… I let Liam words drift again as I feel someone's presence beside me. These people are not letting me focus on my husb-liam. "Excuse me ma'am" The man who had led us to the private room, smiles beside me and I nod. He is wearing gloves now with a brand new wine bottle different from the rest, he pops the bottle open beside me, and el

"But he fuckin touched you!" Liam is fuming in anger and not even trying to hide it behind one of his creepy smiles. "He saved me from that stupid waiter" I replied, adjusting the towel on my body. "But he still touched you." Liam raised his brows up way too forcefully. "Yes because he was trying to save me, get this together Liam, do you expect him to save me some psychokinetic powers or what?" I try not to raise my voice. We are in the private room I was brought into after the small incident with the waiter, and after waiting inside by myself for ages, Liam had burst in the room to tell me how he didn't witness the whole incident but had seen a glimpse of Draken holding my waist.Wow. "You have hands, he could have held your hands, why go all the way to touch your waist? I don't even want him or anyone touching any part of you" "Okay you're getting weird, you're supposed to be grateful to Draken, but you're here yelling at me. What the hell" I scoff, knowing if this goes on I

-The evening of Liam Knight showing off his wife to the guest present at the gala he hosted and to the public got off to a great start. The people loved how pretty and elegant she was, and even some of the guests testified how magnificent she looked in real life in pictures. She is unquestionably someone who should be kept as a wife; she is an excellent choice. But why did things turn out the way they did? The fact that Liam Knight wasn't seen with his wife throughout the entirety of the night and that she was seen with another man, a very good friend of Liam's named Draken Kennedy, who had rescued Liam's wife after a crazy accident, led many of the guests to testify that this couple appeared emotionally distant from one another. Surprisingly, Liam did not show up to defend his wife or investigate what had gone wrong even after the incident had taken place. The question is now... let's go back to the headline.-I let my fingers scroll on Ruby's phone as I scroll up to the headline tha
