Chapter 122

Isabella's POV.

For once I didn't even think about how peace would feel but here I was experiencing every bit of it with Declan in my life.

We were finally back home after overcoming a risky death situation in India and now we were facing the scandals and secrets in our hometown that almost destroyed us but we overshadowed it and came out stronger than ever.

Because of everything we had gone through. We didn't even realize we hadn't spent time with each other, I mean things were now better between us despite being around each other. Our bodies weren't close at all, our bodies didn't align with each other and it needed to so we can both belong to one another for a lifetime.

We were in our bedroom and the night air was so cold. My feet, my hands, my body. Everything inside of me was so cold and I desperately needed some warmth.

“That is enough of the silence between us. Let us break it down with some sweet red wine” Declan said as he poured the already open wine into our empty glasses which were now filled.

I chuckled at his words, because it was just after he had spoken that his words registered in my head and he intertwined his fingers with mine.

The number one thing I loved the most about Declan was how he had single handedly held me together through my tears and fear. He had promised me the whole world without even saying a word to me and I would always cherish that for a lifetime.

“Here is your glass of sweet red wine” he said, stretching the filled glass towards me and I collected it from him and placed it on the table.

“Thank you” I said in a slow voice.

“You are welcome but it seems as though you are not interested in drinking wine. What is wrong Bella? You know you can speak about your problems to me”

“You are right when you said I am not interested in drinking wine. Declan, I am your wife now and we have given our relationship a name so I want you to touch me” I expressed, without feeling any emotions of shyness inside of my body.

Declan licked his lower lip. He stared at me and I felt like he wanted to eat me up. I knew he wasn't trying to understand my words, maybe he was just surprised that I could say something so wild to him, especially when he has known me to be a shy person. A woman that fully couldn't express her feelings.

“So tell me Bella. What do you want us to do about the situation?” he asked again, and I almost rolled my eyes at him but I knew I needed to be in the best composure.

“I already told you. Or has it become a habit of yours to let me repeat myself to you?” I said in a low voice, as I stood up to my feet and wrapped my hands around his neck.

“The last thing I can recall you saying is that you aren't thirsty for wine” Declan said and I knew for a fact he was flirting and teasing me at the same time. That was what he was good at, whenever it came to me.

“No you got it all wrong. I am thirsty, but definitely not for wine” I whispered.

“Fuck Bella. I think I have gone crazy about you” he said and took me unexpectedly as he leaned forward and held my face in his hands, then he pressed his lips on mine.

As soon as I felt his lips on mine. I felt relieved and I opened my mouth to kiss him deeper, the kiss was slow at first. It was as though he was tasting and exploring my lips at the same time, which I found to be very exciting because it turned me on the more.

Just when I was feeling the sensation of the kiss, I noticed his pace had changed from slow to fast as he slipped his fingers into my hair. He messaged my scalp slowly and I could feel the warmth of his fingers performing his magic on me as his lips were claiming mine as though he had been starved.

“I have wanted you for so long my love. Your heart, your soul, and your body. Everything that belongs to you, I wanted it to be mine” he expressed his words in a low voice and I smiled at him.

“Then take me in different ways, Declan. I am right in front of you” I urged, and suddenly his mouth was on mine again. The kiss was deeper than the last kiss we shared.

I felt his hand under my ass and he lifted me up without any stress, then I wrapped my legs around his waist for support.

“What the fuck are you doing Declan?” I asked as I laughed at him, then he walked to the room

“I'm doing what every husband would do to his wife. Don't forget I am going to claim you and mark you as mine tonight” he said as he dropped me on the bed, then he climbed ontop of me but he was careful enough not to put his whole weight on me.

“Baby before I continue. I just want to know if you are truly sure of this? You know the last thing I want to do right now is force you into something you aren't willing to do, just so you can please me” he whispered and I pouted my lips at him.

“I was the first person to express myself to you. I told you that I need you to touch me and I wasn't looking about it, so go ahead and touch my body right now Declan because I have never been so sure of wanting you as I am now”

This time around I didn't let him kiss me because I felt he would hesitate to do it. So I kissed him instead as I felt his fingers trailing lines on my back while being consumed in the passionate love making.

“You are such a beautiful baby. You are everything to me and I love you so much.
