Chapter 30 2/2
I was in my bathroom, going for a cold shower as I couldn't control this heat that was making me impatient for her body. I took a cold session and dressed it into a navy suit.
I headed back to the lounge where my grandmother was. "Ah, here you are, handsome," Grandmother grinned. "Are you ready?"
"Very much, I think so," I chuckled and side-hugged her. "My bride was looking like an angel," I commented. I was holding onto the last thread of my patience, she took a little longer than I expected.
"Lucian, are you listening to me?" Grandmother exploded my bubble of thought, I turned back to her.
"Yes, I'm," I lied and we both knew it.
"I was saying you have to be careful with her tonight, she is carrying my great-grandson in her womb, there shall be no harm to her during whatever you would do," Grandmother was right. I had to take it slow. She had been through a lot in a month because of me.
"You don't have to say it, my first love. I'll take care of her with my life," I said, kissing her hand.
I heard the click of a heel again and that's when I knew Jennifer was approaching. I looked at her. She was beautifully dressed in a black mid-length dress. I couldn't get my eyes off her. I even forgot to blink for a while and I was aware grandmother was observing me.
She reached us, I turned to her, grabbed her hands and kissed her knuckles. "Did I ever tell you are the most precious thing I own?" I tried a chance to be a lovesick puppy, she only flushed and gave grandmother a farewell hug.
I took her out of the penthouse, stepping downstairs, I saw Domenico approaching close to us, bringing my car. He stepped out and handed me the button-key. I opened the door for my strawberry, she settled inside, closing the door, I walked the other way to occupy the backseat next to her.
The chauffeur drifted the car to the port where our yacht was waiting to take us to the island where my mansion was waiting for us. We reached there, I took her with me while she kept mute. I also kept it a secret for her.
The captain of the boat left for the destination. Jennifer looked up to the sky and smiled as if she was talking to God. I kept admiring her and she caught me and eyed away, blushing exactly like a newlywed. I couldn't understand what was going on with her. She's changed a lot. She didn't fight me nor did she try to repel me as if she accepted her fate. I guess she didn't want me to go hard on anyone because of her, she was a kind soul yet a devil fell more in love with her kindness.
I didn't realise fifteen minutes had gone by and we were almost there, admiring her and making me unaware of my surroundings.
"Master, we are here," The captain announced. I stood up and held Jennifer's hand to take her to the mansion. She followed obediently. I uplifted her in my arms and she let out a scream, I glanced at her face to catch the reaction as we entered the mansion. It was decorated with roses and slow music. She smiled and this time, it was a genuine smile. Thank God.
She was looking around and I took her bedroom—to our bedroom. "Do you like it, Mrs. Bernardi?" I asked politely, she nodded while biting her lip. Fuck, this sight! I would like to bite that lip too.
"It's incredible," Jennifer commented and I opened the room's door. The room was all in rose petals, rosy fragrance, slow melody, red and black themed room and dimmed light. I strode inside, watching Jennifer gasping in surprise. This was an appealing reaction, her mouth was opened. I would like to seal it in a kiss. I would, really soon.
I put her on the bed, "Would you like a drink?" I asked as I walked to the room fridge. She didn't answer, I turned around to look at her, finding her breathing hard and anxious. I got it. Panic took over her senses. I took some red wine and brought it with glasses. I poured it in the glasses and forwarded the glass to her which she didn't take.
I placed the glass on the nightstand. "What happened all of a sudden, strawberry?" She was supposed to be happy. After all, she greatly pretended to be.
"I—I am okay," She muffled again. Clear signs of tenseness. I got an idea that could help her relax. I fetched out the box that grandmother gave me and presented to her—though I wanted to give it to her in the morning.
"I got this for you," I told her and opened it. She glanced at it and her eyes warmed a little.
"This is... beautiful, I mean so beautiful," She commented.
"It was given to my mother by my great grandmother. Now, it is descended to you," I told her and that seemed to be cooling her a little.
"I appreciate it," She whispered, biting her lip again and struggling to unbuckle the necklace she was wearing. I followed her movement and saw her noticing me. She raised her eyebrows as if she was questioning me.
"May I?" I whispered to her and she let me help her, that was kind of her.
I helped her take it out and before she could move even an inch, I took her lips in a thunderbolt. Her breath hitched in her throat and I smashed my lips against her, striking mine with hers in a rhythmic momentum.
She followed my movement as if she wanted it too but before we could move to the main part. She pulled away and put her hand on her mouth as if she was preventing something and ran to the bathroom.
Ah, fuck! She was about to puke. This pregnancy won't let me have my right.
