7 Wedding Night 2
***********
CHAPTER 7
"Welcome."
That was the best she could do.
Not waiting for his response as she knew she just succeeded in angering him further. Rather she took that brief moment when he was not stunned to get up and walk away from him.
Immediately she got past him to the other side of the room, she let out her breath, one she didn't even know she had been holding in.
'Era, calm down. Deep breaths and it would all be over soon.' A silent encouragement to help keep her shaky hands steady.
She had already encouraged herself. She was going to take this marriage one second, one minute at a time.
If she could survive this night with him, this crucial night, then she could manage and see how she could survive countless more before her inevitable death.
Not even giving her time to have a breather, Vidor marched towards her, his feet stomping on the tiles with great vigour.
Each and every step he took coming closer, only made her heart beat faster against her chest, almost exploding her sensitive eardrums.
CLICK! CLICK!
Badum! Badum!
'Please don't. Please don't. Please don't.' she chanted within her.
Suddenly, he stopped. Her breath ceased as she anticipated his next move. Her eyes were open, rather than being closed as she stared at his shadow, watching to see how best to avoid any form of touch.
"I do not want to believe your mother did not teach you of your duties and services to a king on your wedding night."
She refused to respond to his words, behaving as one who was deaf.
"Look at me when I speak and nod if you cannot use your mouth when you understand."
Saying that he lifted his hands to touch her. However, before his fingers could make a mark with her body, Era moved, taking two steps forward and out of his reach.
He blinked. Unsure of what happened. 'Did she just evade my touch?' He thought within him.
Shaking his head as though trying to clear his doubts, he took two steps forward and tried again. Just like last time, Era moved away just in time.
He arched his brows at her. How dare she evade him like this when she was his.
A mischievous smirk appeared at the corners of his lips. 'Fine, since you want to play chase, then I would let you know you are mine, little rabbit and you cannot run from me.'
With that thought in mind, Vidor turned to his side, making it seem like he was leaving.
'Finally.' Era sighed within, thinking he had given up.
The next thing she knew…
"Ah!" She yelped in shock when she felt a pair of strong arms suddenly wrapped around her.
Badum! Badum!
Instantly her heartbeat that had managed to calm down a bit immediately started to beat fast again.
SNIFF!
He took a long sniff of her scent. He didn't know why he was doing all of these suddenly but somehow, he found himself just wanting her.
This was one of the first. In his life, never had he had any so close to him. Even if it was to relieve sexual tension, he would rather vent his anger in training but not with a lady.
Every lady somehow felt repulsive to him all but Era and Diona and that was because of Diona's father as he saw her as a weapon in his hands to be used and nothing more.
But Era… she was different.
She was fair to gaze upon. The more he looked at her, the more of her he wanted to see. Her pain stirred up something in him.
Just within a few hours of having her close, he didn't understand what was going on with him anymore.
"Aahhh…" he moaned. "Smell nice."
She became stiff instantly, daring herself to remain calm.
Slowly, he removed one of his hands from underneath her chest and brought his fingers closer to her face. Once they made a mark with her cheek, he sighed at the softness he felt from it.
Era did not say anything nor did she move. Instead, she waited… waited for an opportunity for his grip to loosen so she could break free.
Seeing that she was not resisting his touch, he allowed his fingers to roam over her face, then down to her neck, enjoying the feel of her delicate shiny white skin.
The more he felt her, the more he wanted to continue touching her, causing him to wonder.
'If her face was soft as this, I wonder how those two…' He gulped, not daring himself to even say those words in his mind. However, he slowly allowed his fingers make their way down her neck.
"You are tensed, relax. I won't hurt you, just maybe have you?" After saying that, he did what she wanted him to do the most. He released his grip, moving his other hand upwards to touch her breast.
That was it. It was all she needed and she broke free, giving him a considerable amount of space.
"Get away from me, you sexually depraved beast," Era yelled in anger.
"Haha haa…" A soft chuckle escaped his lips at her sorry attempt for being angry.
"And why should I?" he asked calmly, turning his face to the side. By the time he faced her again, that softness was gone and replaced with anger. "Sexually depraved beast, huh?"
"You belong to me, little rabbit. Be a good girl and stay RIGHT THERE."
Badum! Badum!
