Since Sean’s confession that he wanted me at Ranila’s birthday party, I’ve been getting more and more restless, even more so I still vividly remember that intoxicating and passionate kiss. Three days since the party had passed, and yesterday Aunt Ramia and Uncle Valentino came to the house to turn the engagement plan into a wedding, my mother was very happy about it, and again I couldn’t move.
Meanwhile, Caroline was very surprised by the news about me and Sean Valentino. No matter how hard I tried, the media would find out in the end and what frustrated me even more, the photo of me kissing Sean at the party that time had gone viral in the media. Everyone out there is talking about it, and I don’t have the balls to show my face in public. My phone chimed indicating an incoming message.
From Sean
Get ready, I’ll be in five minutes until we’re out for lunch.
After reading the message, I immediately got up from my lying position and walked languidly to the wall in closet and chose clothes.
“Where are you going honey?” Mama asked as I passed the living room.
“Lunch with Sean,” I replied, my mother smiling teasingly. I chuckle when I see my mom teasing me like that. Sean’s car horn sounded from outside.
“I’ll go first, Mam,” I said goodbye, walked over to Mom, gave her a short kiss on the right cheek and then ran a little to the front yard. My heart beats again every time I want to meet that handsome but cold man. Sean waited while leaning next to his car opposite the entrance of my house. I give my cheerful smile, when does he look ugly?? Is he really human?? He is as perfect as the depiction of the Greek gods.
Sean just smiled a little then when I approached him, he kissed my forehead then opened the car door for me, I smiled shyly at his sweet treatment, my heart melted like ice cream because of his treatment.
Sean POV
She always looks sweet and beautiful in my eyes. Her innocence captivated me, I didn’t expect to see her again after so long, maybe she forgot about me but I don't. I was so happy when mama decided to turn our engagement plans into a wedding, she would be mine. I know she needs time to adjust to me, and that’s understandable.
When she’s near me, I don’t know what to say but stare at her, I love to see her smile, the blush on her face when she’s embarrassed. And I wanted it even more when I felt her plump lips, it was the strongest kiss I’ve ever felt in my life, although I was surprised because she didn’t seem to be an expert in kissing, I thought of an assumption that it was her first kiss, but I don’t think it’s possible, it’s different when with Atika, my ex-lover, although until now I still think about it.
We arrived at a fancy restaurant, I saw her amazed face which was very cute and innocent, it made me want to smile.
“You like?” I asked interrupting her admiration, she awkwardly nodded, smiled shyly and her cheeks were flushed red, so beautiful. I grabbed her hand which was small enough for mine and held it, we entered the restaurant. When we entered we heard soft whispers from either side of us, I put Ariana’s body close to me when a waitress greeted us, then ushered us to the table I had ordered earlier.
I saw Ariana looked nervous, it could be seen from the way she held the menu book, she tightly gripped the edge of the book upside down.
“Honey, the book is upside down,” I whispered softly while holding back my smile so as not to laugh, this girl is very innocent and adorable. Ariana immediately corrected the position of her menu book. After ordering food, I looked back at Ariana who was downcast.
“You must be uncomfortable with the news that spreads about us,” I guess, she looks up at me and nods, I take a deep breath. I am one of the easy targets of the media because of my undeniable reputation, plus Ariana’s currently rising reputation as a rising female singer.
“Don’t worry, I’ll take care of everything so it won’t be a problem in the future,” I promised, then our order arrived a few minutes later.
When we were about to leave the restaurant, there were a lot of men’s eyes that seemed to openly strip Ariana, it made me want to give a raw punch to their faces one by one, plus several people greeted her, maybe they were fans so Ariana smiled kindly and that smile was able to melt my bones. We were forced to stop to serve his fans’ requests to take pictures, hug and even kiss him. I held back all the emotional turmoil seeing my girl being treated like a doll.
Wait, did I just call Ariana my girl?? Am I wrong?? She is my future wife.
Instead of decreasing, there were more and more people taking pictures with Ariana, finally me and the restaurant security team stepped in, relief filled me as we stepped out of the crowd and the restaurant.
“After we get married, I want you to quit the world of Entertainment,” I said, not wanting to be denied, I glanced at Ariana who looked at me in surprise.
“What??? But....”
“I don’t like being denied, Ariana,” I hissed sharply.
“But I-“
“Stop it, or I’ll destroy your career myself,” I threatened, gripping the steering wheel of the car to hold back the waves of emotion that were swirling inside of me. I can’t imagine if we got married later, those damn fans just treated my wife, who do they think they are?! I just want to kiss and hug her, only I have the right to do that.
The whole way, we just sat in silence with each other, until finally Ariana broke the silence.
“Where are we going?” she asked a little panicked.
“To the villa, our wedding party will be held at my villa,” I replied. Ariana rolled down the car window as we passed the ocean view, she looked beautiful with her hair blowing in the wind, don’t forget the smile on her seductive luscious lips, I could have stopped for a moment to kiss her but I had to endure that wild attitude.
Arriving at the villa, the guard greeted us in a friendly and courteous manner. Ariana is constantly amazed by the state of this villa.
“All of this is yours?” She asked in disbelief, I nodded proudly showing off mine, and we headed to the backyard where our wedding will be held.
“Why do you want me to quit from world of Entertainment?” Her eyes looked at me questioningly, I pulled his waist so his body pressed against mine.
“Soon, you’ll be mine I don’t like it when someone else touches mine like your damn fan did,” I said then kissed her like at Rani’s birthday party, when my kiss moved to her smooth white neck, one of my hands traveled to her body. Her front wrapped in a bra, Ariana gripped my arm tightly. I seemed to lose my mind when I inhaled her scent that smelled of Jasmine, there was a sexy sigh in my ear, so that my desire quickly shot up.
“Young Master, Madam wants you to meet her at Mrs Rani’s boutique soon.”
I chuckled when the villa guard interrupted our activities. I looked at Ariana who was looking down with her cheeks as red as a tomato, I smiled then took her out of the villa to the car.
