It was already way past midnight when the party finally ended. The reception was extremely enjoyable especially with all the antics that Alex and the others had prepared. That night, everyone had enjoyed and indulged to their hearts’ content, with the exception of maybe a few individuals who were secretly nursing their own heartaches yet acting like they were completely alright on the surface.
Alicia and Zeke were walking slowly, hand in hand, along a long corridor. Neither of them talked, but their faces screamed of nothing but pure satisfaction and happiness. They both had reveled in and savored every single moment of their wedding party up till now. The dances and games were all so entertaining, especially with all the guests who were very sporting and more than willing to humor them and played along. Due to that, the laughter had been cheerful, loud and infectious that even Zeke who was always portraying a poker face had a small and amused smile throughout the rest of the night. It was a special occasion after all as it was his wedding.
Feeling Zeke squeezing her hand lightly, Alicia looked up at him with a small smile as her eyes twinkled with all the emotions that was contained in her heart right at the moment. He was already looking down at her. His eyes were also filled with emotions, completely showing his vulnerable self to her once again. She was still astounded at the knowledge that this powerful and peerless man was willing to open up to her and show his most vulnerable state to her and her alone. It was more amazing to know that she was the only one he had made this exception for in the entire hundreds of years that he was alive. That thought only caused her heart to flutter even more uncontrollably in her chest.
In one swoop, he bridal-carried Alicia and then jumped out a window along the corridor. He quickly brought her to the topmost part of the castle, found a comfortable spot and sat there, with her cradled lovingly in his arms. As usual, he always made sure that she was snugly wrapped in his embrace, and that the least amount of wind would be able to hit her directly.
Alicia did not say anything and just leaned her head contentedly on his shoulder as they both stared down at the lovely and silent night view of the city far below. Everything just seemed so perfect at the moment. Being held in his strong and reliable arms, Alicia could not ask for anything more. She was contented with her lot in life right now.
For a long while they just stayed like that until Zeke’s silken voice broke the silence. “No words can describe how I am feeling right now, Alicia, my love. Marrying you is definitely the best decision I’ve ever made in my long life.” Alicia could not see his face as she was facing forwards. But from the slight tremble in his voice told Alicia how affected he was by this.
She then looked up at him, eyes gentle and full of love as her lips tugged into the sweetest smile Zeke had ever seen. Lifting her hand, Alicia caressed his face tenderly then kissed his mouth softly. “I love you…” was all she could say. “I love you, Ezekiel. My husband… my heart.”
He pressed his lips together as if to stop certain words from spilling forth unwittingly, while his grey eyes gleamed like an ancient diamond. Alicia had seen this look on his face many times before, every time she told him, ‘I love you’. He had never said those words out loud to her. Alicia had always felt as though something was always stopping him from saying those three words back. She had wondered what the reason was, but always ended up never saying anything about it. It was alright even if he could not say it out loud because it was obvious enough that she could see it every time she looked into his eyes and feel the love in every single thing that he did for her. And she believed that he would say those words to her eventually.
“I love you,” she whispered again and then she deepened their kiss.
At the beginning, it started off slow and gentle and was filled with nothing but satisfaction type of kiss, until Ezekiel’s hand started to travel and touch her intimate places.
When they pulled away, savage hunger was reflected in his intense grey eyes.
She felt his rock-hard length under her like a hot branding iron and she intentionally squirmed around, knowing what it would do to his already fraying self-control. She looked at him with the same lust he was looking at her. “Should we stay here a little longer? Husband mine?”
His voice was a half groan, looking at her like he could no longer wait to devour her there and then. “My cock is already throbbing with anticipation for our wedding night to start.” He pinched her chin and licked the seams of her lips, whispering to her hotly. “I can’t wait to make love to and fuck my beloved wife’s brains out.”
“Then take me and bring me to your room now, Ezekiel.” Alicia’s self-control was almost non-existent as she heard him talk dirty. She had never had much of a resistance to him once they confirmed their relationship, much less now when they were officially and legally husband and wife.
He stood immediately. “I need to know one thing first, Alicia. How do you want our first round as husband and wife to go?” he asked, “Sweet? Tame? Wild –”
“Do whatever you want, love. I don’t want you to hold back at all, my husband.” Her entire frame was shivering in anticipation of the things to come as his velvety dark voice seemed to flow over her oversensitive nerves.
The grey fire in his eyes blazed to an inferno and then they disappeared from the castle top.
The moment they materialized inside his bedroom – their bedroom, Ezekiel had already started ripping his clothes off his body.
“I want to rip your dress apart but… it’s just looks so beautiful on you, babe. I want to fuck you in your beautiful wedding dress, my wife.” He whispered in a ragged voice.
