Rosabella-
"Rose, it has been a long time since we have come back from the celebratory dinner. What are you still thinking about?" Nina whines massaging my shoulders as I sit inside the big round bathtub. The rose petals floating on the water surface matching with the red colour of my red bathing dress.
I've been thinking, Nina. Something that is triggering for a reason even I'm not aware of. I'm married now but why do I have a separate chamber from Dargan? I didn't think about it before, but now I can't stop thinking about it.
"I am just thinking bout Tina and Ana. I hope they are doing well in this new environment. I hope the people are good with them." I say but Nina's frown tells me that she doesn't believe my lie.
"There are fine. Alpha himself ordered his people to take care of them. I even talked to them and they have given you a name as well. They call you Queen Bella!" She says smiling before turning serious again.
"Now tell me what exactly were you thinking?" She asks.
"That's a really good name..."
"Rose, tell me!" She says. Her voice was adamant in the pleasantly scented room.
"What, Nina?"
"What is it that is keeping you occupied? You are thinking about something and I can tell something is bothering you." She says.
"Nina, I don't understand. Why do I have a separate chamber?" I ask her finally. I know she wouldn't know it but at least I can share and lighten my heart.
"That's because you didn't marry out of love. Do you think you would've been comfortable staying in the same chamber as him? The same is with him as well. He might not be comfortable, Rose." She says trying to make me feel okay.
Probably we are good far away like this. At least I can be away from his sight and carry out my plan. Yes! This is perfect!
"I think you are right. So, you tell me, how are you doing? Did you make any friends?" I ask her to change the subject.
"Well, the stay has been..." She stops and gasps. Her hands tighten around my bare shoulders.
I try to turn my head but her hands instantly come to my head. Her fingers massage my head, turning it back to the front.
"What happened?" I ask her but she doesn't say anything.
"Umm, nothing. I just nearly dropped the oil bottle. But let's talk about your husband. What else have you observed about him?" She asks.
"Well... he is arrogant for certain. He is scary to a level where people can pee seeing him. I honestly want to see him strolling around his Kingdom, I can bet my life, the kids will scare away from him." I chuckle feeling her hands massaging my head.
"He is too confident and super dominant. Like, can you deny submission in front of him? No. He demands it without even saying anything. One look at him and you wouldn't want to be at the receiving end of his anger. He is strong, giant and umm... how do I put this? He is hard to approach. Not even just him but his whole family is hard to approach. I think I'll do some good being a part of his family. At least there'll someone who'd actually listen and be nice to others. As I said, he is too scared to talk to, then his mother, I haven't met her yet but she too is a mystery in herself and his sister is hard to approach. I tried to talk to her today but it's like doesn't like me already. She only talked when Dargan made his presence ad I could sense that she became uncomfortable. I even noticed her glaring daggers at me once.
So that's that, but I can't deny that Dargan is too handsome for his own good. He is tall and his eyes are beautiful but cold. The most amazing thing is his beard. You know, Nina, as much as I don't like him, he is really handsome. Phew! I don't know how I'm going to survive here. I've always admired him for his strength. I even got the courage to train because of him. He made me feel that you can be powerful in your mortal form as well.
And now, here we are. I'm married to the same man who is insanely handsome! I swear, Nina. I can't stop shivering when I'm near him. His eyes pin me down and his touch..." I leave the sentence hanging.
"My touch does what?"
My breath sticks in my throat on hearing him whisper in my ear. His rough hands now massaging my bare shoulders.
"Tell me." He says again while I sit still in the water in my bathing dress.
I slowly turn to look at him and find him looking down at me.
When did Nina leave?
We hold each others' gaze before I feel his hands lower and graze the slightly bare side of my breasts.
Oh! He heard me.
His head dips in the crook of my neck and he places a long kiss there. I shudder feeling his beard graze my skin and he further moves to the back of my neck. His teeth graze my skin and he pulls open the knot there that was holding my bathing dress together. Though it was the only knot in the whole dress and that was pulled open as well, the fabric remains intact because of the water. It sticks to my body.
"Dargan..." I call out his name which comes out strangled.
"Hmm..." He hums as his one arm hold me tight just below my breasts and the other runs down my bare back along my spine. The dress only allows covering the front till just above the knees with my back bare but bottom covered.
"What are you doing here? This is my chamber." I say.
"And you are mine. Remember the third vow? You vowed to devote your love exceptionally to me." He says nibbling my earlobe.
"Still... I'm underdressed." I try to reason with all my strength.
"I can always join you." He says before suddenly lifting me up with water dripping from my body.
"Ah!" I let out a little shriek but ignoring that, he moves out of the bathing and towards my bed.
My heart is thudding against my rib cage feeling his hands against my bare back and thighs.
"Dargan..."
He lays me down on the bed, all wet.
"You aren't forgetting this is our wedding night, are you?" He asks kissing my cleavage while holding my hands up above my head.
What does he plan to do?
My breathing becomes heavy as I lay under him all wet... everywhere.
"Remember what I said during the dinner? I shall kiss you in the privacy of your room and you shall return the kiss." He says looking deep into my eyes. I lose myself in his beautiful brown gaze before my eyes close when his lips meet mine. My lips part on their own and his tongue dive through them. My tongue tangles with his. Knowing I won't be able to win this battle, I chew on his lower lip and we both turn into a mess of a heaving couple ready to die being out of breath but not ready to stop.
"Mmph!" I moan in his mouth, silently pleading for some oxygen.
"You smell like roses..." He groans pulling away and somewhere in my mind I can hear a voice telling me to stop but I ignore it.
"You didn't answer my question yet." He says and suddenly turns me on my stomach between his thighs. His hands engulf my fists and he pins each of my hands beside its respective hip.
"What does my touch does to you?" He asks and I feel his beard trickle my back as he places kisses there.
"Dargan... please..."
"Tell me, my wife. Tell me how do you feel right now?" He asks kissing my lower back while I inhale to calm my breathing.
"I feel nervous, Dargan," I tell him the most polite answer I could.
"And? Why do you feel nervous? Tell me the truth and I might end your misery."
His voice hypnotizes me and his hand clutching my inner thighs make me give away any control on my tongue.
"I feel excited. I feel nervous anticipating your next move. I crave your next move while also feeling scared of it." I moan as his fingers caress the dimples at my lower back. His touch there excites me more and sends currents through my body making me wiggle.
"Are you enjoying my hands on you now, Bella?" He asks and his name for me makes sends me into some other world.
"Yes..."
"Do you enjoy it as much as you enjoyed your lover's touch?"
