CHAPTER HUNDRED AND FIFTY NINE
CHAPTER HUNDRED AND FIFTY NINE
When we were done with dinner, Stephanie locked hands with me, and we both walked out of the dining room, leaving Sin and the rest of the family.
"I am happy for you, Mani, but what the hell?" She whispered a yell. Since when did we start keeping secrets? I sighed and closed my eyes.
"I wasn't planning on keeping it a secret." "I didn't know how to tell you or what your reaction might be," I explained to her calmly. She gave me a defeated look, and I knew she couldn't stay mad at me forever.
"With that aside, I need your help with the wedding. Samantha and Nikolai's family are taking care of things, but I still need you for the preparation and, most of all, to be my bridesmaid. That is, if you want to. With glossy eyes, I looked straight at her, silently begging her to agree.
"Of course I will, but you need to tell me everything that has happened these past few months," she says, hugging me a little bit tightly, and I chuckled.
"What would you like to know?"
" Everything. "For starters, why the hell didn't you tell me your fiancé was a freaking Greek god?" She squeaked, and I laughed. "I know for sure I was drooling my ass out when he opened the door."
I was surprised by a smile as I watched her recall her encounter with Sin. She lowered her eyes. "On the scale of 1 to 10, how good is he in bed?"
"Steph.. " I gasped with a blush.
"What.." she looked at me like she just asked what the weather was. " Don't hold out on me now, spill," I smiled, biting my lips.
A grin pulled at her lips. "Judging from the smile on your face, he must be really good." Fuck Mani, you're so lucky. I thought you were going to be a virgin forever. "That guy must have done some magic on you."
I held my hand out to my mouth to shush her. "Steph, do you mind keeping your voice down?" "We don't want them hearing from the dining room."
"Okay, okay. " She raised her hands in surrender, then whispered. "How big is his dick?"
"Stephanie.. God! "Do you ever have any filters?"
"I'm joking. There's no need to get so worked up." She winks. "Come, let's go back to the dining room and save your poor fiancé from being tortured by my parents and your aunt."
We walked back into the dining room, and I was surprised by the sight I saw. They were all casually talking to each other, like this wasn't their first time meeting. Sin had a smile on his face like the rest of the family. We spent up to three hours together as a family. I wish the rest of the family back in Italy were here.
"We will be leaving," my aunt Sera stated.
"Wait, what. "Stay some more." I said.
"It's already late, Mani; Nikolai offered for us to stay, but we don't want to impose; besides, he already booked us a penthouse suite in a very luxury hotel," Carson responded.
I nodded my head in understanding and was touched by the care Sin was showing my family. "Okay, I will call you soon."
"You look happy, pumpkin, and it brings joy to me," my aunt said again.
"I am happy; I never thought I would be, but I am," I told her, a smile placed on my lips.
"That's nice to know; we have to go now." Bye". I hugged them one last time as they left.
After they left, I went back to the room to freshen up, changing into nice, clean pajamas. I waited for Sin to come into the room.
The minute he entered, I walked up to him."Nikolai, I really appreciate what you did today." I said it in an overly sweet voice. "I don..".
I was stopped mid-sentence by Sin's lips on mine. As soon as I felt his lips on mine in the softest possible way, my eyes voluntarily closed. A tingly sensation grew across my body. I parted my lips and kissed him back. This kiss wasn't intense; it was gentle and passionate. It was like pouring our feelings into one single kiss.
My hands found their way to his dark hair, softly twirling around a stain of his hair around my finger. Our lips move in sync with each other, almost like they were fighting for dominance.
My finger gripped the material of his shirt, knowing that I would turn into a pile of mush. if I didn't. Desperate for air, we both pulled away from each other but didn't let go of each other.
"You don't need to thank me; I know how much you missed them." "There was no way we would marry without their blessings."
I tiptoed, bringing his lips back to mine. I moaned into the kiss, enjoying the feel of his lips.
When we pulled back, I pecked him one last time. We both lay under the duvet; Nikolai pulled me close to him, and I snuggled into him. My head rested on his chest with his hand on my hair. My eyes closed as I welcomed the darkness with a smile on my face.
