Chapter 9: Chapter 9

Everyone clapped when Sean kissed me after we said our vows of marriage. I was lost in the kiss that was burning and full of sensation, if only Ranila had not reprimanded us with her throat pretending to be itchy, I’m sure I would have lingered with that kiss.

I saw Sean’s face which was perfect for me, maybe, perfect for this universe. A god seemed to be standing before me now with a sharp, cold, passionate and burning gaze. I blushed at the fact that this almost flawless handsome man was mine.

“Are you done admiring me? Since we have a dance,” he said waking me up from that beautiful fantasy, I nodded with an embarrassed face and blushed.

“Are you happy?” he asked as we danced, I smiled and nodded sincerely.

“you?” I asked, still caught up in his charms, and always will be.

“Married the woman I’ve wanted for a long time, of course I’m happy, I promise this relationship will work and succeed,” he promised, I smiled a little disappointed.

“No, just make sure that you’re always with me,” I continued quickly, suddenly the atmosphere turned emotional, where did the fear come from, but I was afraid of being abandoned by him, I was afraid that he would throw me out one day. Tears threatened to come out of my eyes.

“Hey, don’t cry. I want you for me forever by my side, I need you so I won’t leave you,” he said which made me more emotional, and my defenses wavered, a single tear escaped from my eyes, Sean then took me into his arms which finally this has become my favorite place, we stop dancing, hug each other.

“I don’t want to ruin Rani’s hard work on your face, honey, you look absolutely gorgeous, and if we didn’t have to accept the congratulations of the guests in person, I’d like to get you out of that dress right now.”

I suddenly stopped sobbing, my heart was racing at an abnormal speed, he would be my first man. Moving my body a little away from him, Sean took a handkerchief in his pants pocket and gave it to me, I wiped my wet eyes carefully so as not to damage my make-up. Sean grabbed my chin to lift my face so I looked at him.

“I’m not sure I can satisfy you,” I whispered voicing the fear, Sean smiled softly that could melt iceberg at the North Pole.

“I just want you and I to enjoy it, that way we’ll be satisfied.”

“But I’m not as experienced as you,” I said a little panicked, nervous and embarrassed, Sean kissed the corner of my lips, if I were an ice I would be very liquid now.

“I will teach you until you can do well, but there is a condition.”

“What?” I furrowed my brows slightly as I asked.

“You can only do it with me because after tonight, you are mine, Ariana.”

I felt like I had the upper hand when Sean said my name, he seemed to caress every letter with his tongue and lips, how sexy it sounded in my ears and it was able to arouse my deepest passion and erotic side.

“You understand, Ariana?”

I nodded nervously mixed with excitement, my lower stomach muscles tightened deliciously, this man had a huge impact on me.

We received all congratulations from various circles, but Sean showed a calm demeanor, not so affected by the congratulations he seemed to be watching and distrusting, except for a few people, he seemed to give off a sincere smile the rest was just a polite and formal smile. One of his arms never leaves my waist so I stay close to him, very attached and possessive.

I noticed his response to the women who came to congratulate us, but there was no particular response, except with a woman. He had a typical Middle Eastern face like Rani, came with a man who was quite handsome, but seemed unpleasant to my feelings, maybe, and the woman seemed to be able to influence him, like realizing something I remember when he once talked about an ex-girlfriend that I thought was quite impressive to him. .

Could she??

I asked the Inner Goddess and my common sense all said ‘maybe’, I was immediately struck with anxiety. She seemed to have come at the end of the show to have more opportunities to chat with Sean, so I felt left out, odd and unwanted. The feeling was disturbing, to the point that it sent alarm signals in my mind.

No, I don’t want this woman to be an early obstacle in our still fragile relationship. Finally, I said goodbye to take a drink, it seemed Sean was only slightly affected by my departure from beside him. My heart felt like it was getting a small stab that was faint but still felt, but I tried to push it away so it wouldn’t have a more violent effect on me. I took a sip of the yellow liquid, the taste of tropical fruit greeted me, it was refreshing. I took a small cake to try it, but Rani stopped me before the delicious thing entered my mouth.

“Why?” I was a little annoyed by her action, Rani formed her lips into a straight line.

“You can eat your own there, it’s for the guests,” she grumbles, then she drags me somewhere. The people were getting less and less, I swept my eyes to the back garden, Sean’s conjured villa was so amazing, and my eyes fell on Sean who really enjoyed his chat with the woman.

“Oh no! What is that bitch doing here??” Rani’s cynical question immediately turned my attention to her.

“Who’s she?” I want to know.

“She’s Atika, Sean’s ex-girlfriend left Sean for the man beside her, Atika cheated on Sean behind her back, but the idiot didn’t believe it, he believed Atika’s words more if the woman was arranged by her parents.” Rani snorts at the end of the story.

“Why do you know so much??” I’m interested in this discussion.

“Because, I was the one who found the woman walking with the man who is currently her husband, at that time Sean went here to attend the inauguration of his Orchid Cancer foundation.”

I was stunned trying to digest this information. Does Sean still love that woman so much that he doesn’t believe what Rani said?? My anxiety increased and suddenly I felt suffocated, the dose of fear in me was increasing.

“Has Sean ever told you about that woman?”

This topic is drying my throat and mouth, I nodded trying to brace myself.

“But not much of a story.” I took a sip of my fruit juice a little more, we were silent and I looked away not to look at Sean who seemed to have forgotten where he was standing at this time.

“I seem tired, can you help me take off my makeup, sister-in-law?” I asked while trying to smile, I’m really tired, but that’s because I saw Sean with his ex-lover who was very close in front of my eyes. Rani with a cheerful smile took my arm to one of the rooms in this villa which became the bridal room.
