MY LADY BOSS

CHAPTER 5: MARRIED !

Mia’s POV

I never slept so well like I did last night and when I woke up, for the first time I felt excited and never felt more alive !

“Good Morning, kitten”, a deep, husky voice greeted me as the source pulled me closer to his well built chest.

“Morning baby”, I said as I smiled and kissed my soon to be husband on his cheek.

“No, kitten. That’s not a morning kiss”, he said as he scooped me in his palms and kissed my lips deeply and passionately, making my body go weak as electric shocks erupted in my core.

“But this is !”, he smiled.

His minty breath was delicious and his soft hands caressed my cheek. The smell of his cologne enticed my senses entirely when it suddenly hit me.

Fuck !

“No, Andrew. Don’t kiss me !! I must smell and taste so bad. Ugh !”, I said as I cringed about how could he stand my stale breath.

“I don’t care baby and by the way you taste heavenly, kitten”, he winked as he tried to pull me closer to him and continue his encroachment.

“No babes. I can’t do this. Clearly, you have already freshened up and showered, and here I am, ruining you with my morning breath”, I said firmly as I quickly dashed out of the bed to get some footwear under my feet.

“That’s not fair !”, he pouted. “I want you”, he whined childishly.

I chuckled at his childish behaviour and headed towards the bathroom.

Andrew propped on his elbow and said, “By the way, sexy ass, kitten”, he chuckled.

Jesus Christ ! What is wrong with me ? I forgot I was only in Andrew’s tee and surely I had given him a full view of my ass.

What the hell.

I quickly cleaned myself and brushed.

When I walked out in the room, a beautiful white wedding dress lay on the bed with a note stuck to it.

“May the lady in this dress remain my soulmate for forever !”, the note read.

My eyes became glassy as tears threatened to fall. The note was so touching and the dress was exuberant with an elegant style.

“Did you like it, kitten”, a voice behind me said as he snaked his arms around my waist and bit my earlobe.

“Uh-hun”, I sobbed. “Everything is just beautiful, baby”, I cried, overwhelmed with everything.

“Do you know who designed this dress ?”, Andrew asked.

I shook my head in negation as he softly grazed his nose and lips against my neck and shoulders from behind.

“I did, kitten”, he whispered in my ear.

I spun around and said, “Really ? I can’t believe it ! This dress can be sold for millions, heck even for billions easily from a top designer’s brand”, I said with widened eyes.

He chuckled and said, “No one knows this but I took a crash course in fashion designing and I wanted my wife to wear the best piece of work on our special day. So, I secretly designed it for 5 long years”, he said.

“No wonder it is so breathtakingly beautiful”, I whistled.

“C’mon kitten. I made you breakfast. We have to reach the courthouse by noon”, he said as he led me to the breakfast table.

The feast in front of me immediately made my mouth salivate as the delicious aroma tantalized my nostrils.

“Oh my God, Andrew ! You made my favourite goodies”, I cried out like a child in glee. “Oh goodie goodie. I don’t think I will fit in that dress if I eat all this !”, I said as I greedily tucked away the brownie, cookies and pancakes.

“You are such a child”, Andrew chuckled, clearly delighted that I loved the food he made for me.

“If this continues, Andrew, I might get in the habit of getting pampered and become a huge teddy bear”, I laughed.

“I love cuddling with teddy bears specially fluffier ones”, Andrew teased.

I playfully jabbed at him and served him.

After breakfast, Andrew had called the hairdresser and makeup artists who flocked inside his grand dressing room with huge mirrors framed with the most exquisite wooden designs and a feast of cosmetic products lay out at various stands.

“Andrew, you are worse than a woman !”, I exclaimed in shock as my eyes danced around the room. Andrew chuckled as he operated a device fixed to his palm.

The room was richly illuminated with yellow ceiling lights while the ambience was soothing with light, ear pleasing music playing in the background.

The wardrobes suddenly moved towards me from all directions and the wooden doors glided smoothly to showcase the neat arrangement of all types of dresses- formal, casual, party wear, bikinis, traditional outfits, gowns and even beautifully designed lingerie !

“These clothes have been personally designed for my wife”, he said as he snaked his arms around my waist.

I gasped and said, “They are so beautiful, Andrew ! I might give you your own private Victoria Secret show too”, I said playfully as I glanced towards the lingerie section.

“I can’t wait for tonight then”, Andrew whispered mischievously in my ear while he bit my earlobe with the tip of his teeth. I tried to suppress my moan by biting my lower lip but the man had other plans.

He sucked hard at the nip of my sweet spot on the neck while his fingers made shapes on my navel, making me whimper through my pursed lips.

Not wanting to let go of the opportunity to tease him back, I suddenly gripped his member through his sweatpants and rubbed softly along its length.

He groaned as his member started to harden under my touch. When his semi was about to threaten to burst out of his lowers, I released my grip and turned around to face him.

“No show tonight if mommy not in white”, I purred as I escaped from his hold and motioned the dressing team to come in.

“Such a c**k tease”, he murmured as he paved his way to the shower room.

“Do you realize that I have already taken a cold shower twice just because of you and you, my minx are putting me on fire again”, Andrew growled as he held me by the waist and whispered in my ear after I came out of the room fully dressed for our wedding.

I giggled and said, “You look absolutely dashing yourself, baby.”

We reached the courthouse soon and it seemed empty as we reached its threshold.

I will wait for you inside, kitten”, Andrew said as he winked before walking inside first.

OH MY GOD !

HE GOT ASHLEY AND IDA !!

“Grandpa ! Ash ! Ida ! Oh my God !!!”, I shrieked in joy as I watched them glide towards me with welcoming arms.

“Miaaaa you b***h ! Why didn’t you tell us before ? Andrew is so sweet !! He arranged everything in one night”, Ida said in one breath as she hugged me tight.

“You are literally strangling her , you duffer”, Ash said as she rolled her eyes making us all laugh.

“I am so glad you all came”, I said as tears rolled down my cheeks. “Everything happened so fast. Andrew and I decided to get married yesterday night and I couldn’t ask for a more perfect and intimate wedding”, I said sniffing back my tears. “You guys are the best. You gave me such a beautiful surprise”, I added while wiping off my tears.

“Awww Sweetie. We could never miss your special day and I think you should stop flooding the ground with your tears and ruin that perfect make up of yours. I am not going to get pictures clicked along with a Halloween themed bride”, Ida declared while putting on fake airs.

We laughed at her while they cleaned out my stray tears carefully and set my face back to perfection.

“Ashley ! Ida ! You girls should go in. Andrew and the others must be waiting. I will take Mia with me”, Grandpa said.

My bridesmaid nodded and gracefully went in with Bryant and Alan, the best men and best friends of Andrew who had been patiently waiting for Ash and Ida by the steps.

Alan is the CTO (Chief Technology Officer) of Andrew’s company, Astrax and looks over the technological operations of the company while Bryant is the VP (Vice President) and handles all the affairs of the company, mainly managing the financial side.  

The girls locked their arms in those of their counterparts and headed towards the aisle as the sweet notes of the harp started to reverberate throughout the church.

Grandpa raised his curved arm and smiled at me, “Shall we ?”, he asked as I nodded and linked my arms with his to enter the church.

As I stepped into the church, I was shell shocked by the beautiful setting of the interiors as elegantly sculpted swans lined along the wedding aisle and ribbons and flowers were thoughtfully decorated across the hall, giving the feeling of a wedding at the gates of heaven itself.

Andrew’s taste was no wonder the best in everything he did.

As we walked by the aisle, at every step, the swan just beside me would light up to a beautiful hue of pale yellow.

After the grand entry, Andrew stepped forward to take my hand and as Grandpa handed over me to him, I noticed that there were tears in Grandpa’s eyes.

“Take good care of my Mia, dear friend. I am entrusting her in your care. Through all the ups and downs in life, never leave each other’s side. There will be misunderstandings and heartbreaks but never ever stop trusting each other because that is what love is- Love is the power to stay adamant to make the relationship work no matter what. My Mia has gone through a lot, I am sure she will find happiness with you once again, Andrew”, Grandpa said as his voice crackled and a drop of tear fell down as he handed me over to Andrew.

“I will never let her worry, Sir. She is my everything now”, Andrew said as he smiled at Grandpa and helped me to the stage.

As the officiant initiated the wedding, Andrew mouthed ‘I love’ you, making me blush and lower my gaze.

Ash gave out a fake cough to ruin our moment and a deadly glare from my side did not go unnoticed as she started to giggle.

My bitches are such incorrigible troublemakers and I won’t be surprised if I find live firecrackers in my car seat or honeymoon bed. However, I was worse than them so I really couldn’t blame them for their bratty side and antics.

“Andrew Robinson and Katya Cahill, today you are surrounded by your friends and family, all of whom have gathered here to witness your marriage and to share in the joy of this special occasion. Today, as you join yourselves in marriage, there is a vast and unknown future stretching out before you. The possibilities and potentials of your married life are great; and now falls upon your shoulders, the task of choosing your values and making real your dreams. Through your commitment to each other, may you grow and nurture a love that makes both of you better people. A love that continues to give you great joy, and also a passion for living that provides you with energy and patience to face the responsibilities of life”, the pastor said. “The bride and groom may exchange the rings- the symbols of their love and cement it with their personal vows for each other”, he further declared.

“Mia, you are that breath of freshness who turned around my stale life and brought back sunshine in my dark world. Although, we met only one month back, my affinity towards you seems to be so intense that I believe that our souls have been yearning for each other since centuries. Who would have known that the boss of my heart shall be my lady boss too”, Andrew chuckled as others laughed at his last statement.

“Jokes apart, I don’t know what good I did in my previous lifetimes to get an angel like you but this I know that I uphold the sacred tradition of marriage as holy and pure, and hence I will never leave you or stop loving you till death do us apart”, he concluded.

By now I was too overwhelmed and my throat seemed to have parched with dryness and my eyes were starting to lubricate.

“Andrew Robinson- A household name that Grandpa would not stop blabbering about made me want to kill you in a fit of jealousy and exasperation but I guess deep inside I was always hell lot curious to know you as a person as Grandpa described you to be and now I can totally understand and relate to what he meant. From being a jerky drunkard when we first met to becoming the trustworthy backbone of my life, one month with you changed my perception about you and love. I might have missed two decades of feeling the homely warmth of family love but I know that my future with you will get me back my happiness and sunshine. I love you, Andrew and will continue to do so till death do us apart”, I vowed.

Ida and Ash were now in genuine tears and the best men were handing them tissues while consoling them.

The officiant cleared his throat to get back our attention and continued, “By the grace of the Lord, we are gathered here today in the presence of these witnesses, to join Andrew Robinson and Katya Cahill in matrimony, which is commended to be honorable among all men; and therefore is not by any to be entered into unadvisedly or lightly, but reverently, discreetly, advisedly and solemnly. Into this holy estate these two persons present now come to be joined. If any person can show just cause why they may not be joined together, let them speak now or forever hold their peace.”

No one objected but ofcourse, my besties had other thoughts in their mind. Inspite of recently pouring a torrent of tears, they were back to their wicked ways to stir up trouble for me.

“Ash, just stop me please. Make me stop somehow ! She can’t take away my Andrew”, Ida wailed making the best men and groom chuckle while I turned tomato red with my friends’ crazy behaviour.

What was I thinking when I agreed to befriend them.

Sigh ! They were the worst and above all, I had cried out my eyes on seeing them at the entrance some time back. These bitches just didn’t deserve those tears, my grumpy inner subconscious sneered.

After saying our emotional vows and the ring ceremony, the officiant said, “And now, by the power vested in me by the State, I hereby pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss the bride !”, he concluded to which Andrew in a hot, sexy swift movement took me in his embrace and leaned me in his arms as he lowered his face to mine and kissed me deeply and passionately.

After whistles and claps from the men and a preparatory chorus of ewes from Ida and Ash, we headed to the town hall to get our marriage certificates.       

We were finally married- legally and tied to each other by our hearts but unknown to us, life had so many tests, traps, shocks, defeats and victories in store for us.
