CHAPTER TWENTY-SEVEN: Damien is Acting Strangely Sweet.

ELENA'S POV 

Damien had fucked the senses out of my brain earlier in front of the mirror before he drove us to the cinema. I know I had told him to act as though nothing had happened but I was the one who initiated the mood this time.

I feared that I would end up getting addicted to this man before I knew it. What if he was just playing with me? What if he discards me when he finds someone he truly loves? What then?

“Can you stand or would you like me to carry you? The queue is still long after all.” He whispered from behind me and my face flushed at the thought of him carrying me in front of everyone.

I was about to shake my head but then, why don't I just enjoy him while I could? At least, until he threw me away, let me enjoy his sweet gestures towards me.

“My legs do feel a bit sore. Can you carry me?” I asked with a cute expression on my face and he looked like he was caught off guard by my words.

“Come on then, get on my back.” He said as he stepped in front of me before crouching slightly and I immediately climbed onto his back.

I could hear the murmurs from behind me, but I was too excited to care. It felt good to be treated like his real wife and I didn't ever want it to end.

“Isn't that Damien Vance? Is that his wife he's carrying? I really envy her!” I heard someone murmur from behind me and a triumphant smile formed on my face as I held him tightly.

“This feels good,” I said as I tilted my head to look at him and he glanced at me for a second before moving forward.

“What feels good?”

“This. You treat me like I'm your real wife. It feels amazing. It's funny how I don't want it to end.” I mumbled as I rested my chin on his shoulder and he chuckled softly before moving forward again.

“It won't end, unless you decide to end it yourself.” He muttered and my brows furrowed as I tried to understand the meaning behind his words.

“Sometimes I don't understand you, Damien. Your words and your actions confuse me a lot. It makes me conflicted and I don't know what to think of or do concerning it.” I confessed as we finally made it to the front line, where he collected our seat tickets and walked into the movie theatre.

“I guess I'll have to change? I'll be more open and less complicated. Don't think too much about it, you'll understand soon.” He replied as he walked over to our seat and gently placed me down on my chair before he sat beside me.

“Damien, our contract will expire soon, won't it?” I asked and he glanced at me before nodding, causing my stomach to twist in sadness.

“What will happen to us after that?” I questioned, and he let out a soft sigh as he placed a soft kiss on my forehead before making me face the TV screen.

“When that bridge comes, we'll cross it. For now, the movie is starting so let's focus.” He replied and I played with my fingers nervously as I looked at the screen.

I wanted to tell him that I was scared of losing him. I didn't want the contract to end so that I could have an excuse for being with him. But what was the use? We're nothing but a business deal.

The screen lit up and I realized that I had no idea about the movie we were about to watch. I didn't even know the title of the movie. What if it was horror? I hate horror movies!

My eyes lit up when I saw it was my all-time favorite movie: Cobra Kai. I nearly squealed in joy as I glanced at Damien and he had a small smile tugging on his lips.

How did he know it was my favorite movie?

“Damien, why did you choose this movie?” I asked in a hushed tone as I leaned closer to him but he simply shrugged and placed a finger over my lips to silence me.

I grinned at him as I suddenly took his finger into my mouth and his eyes widened in shock as he turned to look at me.

“Don't even get me started or I won't hesitate to fuck you in front of all these people. They'll be watching us instead of the movie.” He said calmly, but I knew he wasn't kidding, so I slowly pulled away from his finger as he smirked at me.

“That's what I thought.” He replied in a teasing tone and I sat properly to see that the movie had finally started. However, I couldn't concentrate on the movie. My eyes kept returning to my handsome husband sitting beside me and I just couldn't take my eyes off him.

“Watch the movie, Elena.”

“But you're more interesting to watch! Cobra Kai doesn't even compare to you…” I mumbled softly and he chuckled softly at my words as he turned to look at him, his hand reaching out to grab my chin gently.

“You can watch me all you want later, for now, watch the damn movie. Is that okay?” He asked as his thumb caressed my bottom lip, and even though I was tempted to take it into my mouth, I simply nodded.

His hand left my chin and I decided to focus on the movie this time. He isn't yours truly, Elena; one day, you'll have to let him go.

And that day is coming very soon.

“Should I get you some popcorn? I paid for it but forgot to bring it here.” He suddenly said and I nodded in response as he placed a soft kiss on my forehead before leaving.

The moment he left, someone came up to my seat and sat beside me as he tapped my shoulder.

“Remember me?”
