Chapter 61: Chapter 61

They finally got into their room and Celine couldn't help gasping. Somehow a blush appeared on her cheek. The bed was decorated romantically with flowers. The flowers were in the shape of love. The flowers were of red and white colors and the room was filled with romantic fragrance. It looked exactly like a wedding chamber.

She looked around and her eyes settled on the man's face. He was trying to hide a mischievous smile. She glared at him. He must have told them to do it.

"I swear I never told the innkeeper to do any decorations", Beta Rufus said, holding his throat as a sign of swearing.

Celine looked at him doubtfully. She doesn't trust him. How could they decorate the room without his consent? She shot him a menacing look.

"Okay but I really didn't tell them. They only asked if they could give us something special since it's our wedding day. I only agreed. I never knew about the gift", Beta Rufus said as he tried hard to stifle his laugh.

His mate looked so adorable when feigning anger. He wished he could just draw her into a deep kiss. He licked his lips as he drew closer to her with a mischievous smile plastered on his face.

"You…you…what are you trying to do?", Celine stammered as her face flushed red. What could this man be up to?

"Why don't we just do what is required of us tonight. Let's not waste this romantic ambience", he whispered seductively into her ears. Somehow had the urge to tease her.

Something in Celine's mind jumped and she felt tingling all over her body. No, she wasn't supposed to be affected by him but why is her body betraying her mind

She backed away from Rufus. She looked scared but underneath…she actually felt…aroused. Her mind has started drifting back to that night. She shook her head violently in an effort to shake off the images of that night.

"Get away from me before I do something we'll both regret!'' Celine managed to threaten though her voice sounded weak. Her lips were dry and she licked it without thinking about the effect on Rufus.

"Really? But I only saw an invitation from those rosy lips. Do you mind if I have a taste?", Rufus asked, still walking closer.

"Fuck off. You are not going to touch me…"

"Really? Okay. I will leave you alone then. It was fun teasing you though", he whispered as he chuckled lightly.

"Bastard! I am never going to let you touch me", Celine spat out as she shot daggers at him. He just laughed it off.

Beta Rufus was looking happy as he smirked at her weak threat but he decided to stop teasing her. He knew sooner than later she would be the one begging to be under him. He really can't wait anymore. She was a temptation to him.

Celine patted her beating chest. She has to be strong. This must be the mate bond at work. She can't harbor any feelings for him. She would be leaving him soon. But, it tore her heart somehow when she thought about leaving him.

She heard the door to the chamber closing. He must have left. She breathed a sigh of relief as she let loose her emotions slumping to the ground near the bed, crying her eyes out.

Celine wanted to scream out all her sorrows but she had to hold herself back. She hates when people involve themselves in her private life. She didn't want the people in the inn to know about their problems.

She cried on the ground as she remembered her family who were locked up somewhere. Her mother who cared only about herself and a mate who might likely kill her if ordered to.

Her life really sucks!

Beta Rufus walked into the room and saw her lying on the ground. She looked quite pitiful and he had the urge to pinch her rosy cheek. This mate of his has this attraction that brings him closer to her. Sometimes he wonders if it is really the mate bond that made her irresistible to him like this? Or could it be that he is falling in love with her?

Beta Rufus bent down to pick her up and placed her gently on the bed. He touched her hair which was so silky to his hands.

She was his mate and you never Let Her go.

***********

Celine woke up on a fluffy bed stretching her body. She wondered how she got on the bed because she remembered very well that she was on the ground crying. Who could have put her on the bed? Could it be him? Yes, it must be him. They were the only ones in the room so definitely it was him.

She smiled inwardly as she looked around the room. She saw Beta Rufus sleeping on the big couch. She felt sorry for him. He must be feeling uncomfortable.

Celine got out of the bed quietly so she wouldn't wake him up. She had to get this wedding gown out of her body. She got into the bathroom and stared at herself in the huge mirror. Now she could clearly see the wedding gown on her.

The gown was so heavy. Though it looked simple but one look at it, a well versed fashionista could tell how expensive this simple gown was. The designs were simple but intricate as little pearls surrounded the edges of the gown. There was an intricate silver lining at the region under the breast. It pushed up her cleavage.

Celine didn't really observe the wedding gown yesterday as she was worried. But now that she took a look at herself in the mirror, she felt and looked beautiful. She must confess Rufus has good eyes for fashion.

Celine couldn't believe she was now a married woman. Though it was just a contract, she is indeed married. She started undressing herself slowly. She filled the bathtub with water and slipped in. It was so refreshing that she instantly felt relieved from all the tensions of the day before.

After about thirty minutes of washing herself up, she stretched her hands to take the towel so she could dry herself up.

"Where is the towel?"She asked, baffled. How could she come out without a covering? That pervert would be so happy to ogle at her with that evil smirk on his face.

What to do? She had no choice but to call him out. He could just stretch the towel to her without coming into the bathroom, right?

"Err… Could you please give me the towel?", Celine asked as she raised her voice a little.

Beta Rufus who was still on the couch heard a voice talking to him. He thought he was still in the dream land. He responded in a drowsy voice, `` Alright, just wait."

He went towards the wardrobe and saw the towel folded neatly there. He collected it before walking straight into the bathroom without knocking.

"Haaa! Are you crazy?", Celine screamed as she tried to cover her body.

"Uh? Oh! I am so sorry. I think I am still feeling sleepy", he said as he snapped out of his drowsy state. Though he said he was sorry, he was staring at Celine's naked body. His eyes were almost bulging out.

"Hey! What are you staring at? Get out of here!", Celine shouted.

"Sorry, I am leaving already. It's not like I haven't seen it already", he whispered as he dropped the towel on the sink before leaving.

"Pervert!"She threw at him as he left, closing the door.

Beta Rufus smiled to himself as he closed the door. He looked down at his pants to see a huge bulge. Her body was looking so tempting but he had to hold himself from pouncing on her. That would be a straight divorce. It took him a lot of effort to get her close to him. He doesn't wish to lose her anytime soon.

Well, he needs to relieve himself for the time being. He needs a cold shower.

Celine who just came out of the bathroom stared at the man with a shocked expression. He is so big! Did she really take in that thing? She swallowed hard as she promised herself never to be touched by him again.

Beta Rufus saw her shocked expression. He walked closer to her and whispered", You like what you see?".

"Jerk!", Celine said as her face flushed red.

Beta Rufus chuckled as he went into the bathroom. He enjoys how she blushes anytime he teases her.

They will be going back to the Pack today. Alpha Jax had sent a message to him requesting his presence as soon as possible. He wonders what had happened over there.

Are they under attack? He wondered as he quickly got into the bathtub to take his bath and…. also relieve himself.
