The Duke's wife.

You may now kiss the bride .

I had totally forgotten about the kissing part .

My heartbeats increased as I saw him moving closer to me. Ohh heavens .

His slender fingers held my chin and l felt an electric shock run through my body . I had never been this close to a man in my whole life except my step brother Raymond.

His lips inched closer to mine , l could hear my heartbeats in my ear. He gently captured my lips with his and my knees felt weak.

If it wasn't for his hands around my waist l would have fallen flat on my face in front of everyone.

His lips moved slowly against my lips and l cannot deny it but it was strange and exciting. This was my first kiss and it felt good.

He moved back and l was awaken by the crowd's applause towards us .

The wedding was now over and l had to move to my husband's house in Creston. I wasn't entirely going to miss my home since l wasn't treated properly.

I see my step mother smirking with her daughter as they were enjoying my situation. I hugged my father and my brother Raymond who was the only good person in this mansion .

Good bye brother. I will miss you.

I will miss you too sister. Have a safe journey.

I joined my new husband and he held his hand towards me . I nervously took his hand and the warmth from his hands spread to mine . I blushed shyly.

I looked at the house which had been my home for seventeen years but l didn't feel any longing . I entered the carriage with my husband.

I felt sweat forming on my neck as we sat in the small confined carriage . My husband sat across me in the carriage. I could still feel his stare on me as if he wanted to burn my soul.

I didn't know what to do as the silence in the carriage was killing me . I could not start a conversation since l was too scared of him. I didn't believe in rumours but l had to be careful.

Selene ..... My name rolled easily out of his mouth. He had a sweet manly voice.

Yes ... I replied not looking at him .

Look at me . He said with a stern voice .

I slowly looked up and meet his green eyes .

Do you fear me . He asked the obvious.

Ofcourse l feared him .

I don't know. I replied.

Don't lie to me , little cat . I hate liars. He held my hands as heat rushed towards my body .

Do you fear me. He asked again . Looking directly into my eyes. I was caught staring at his eyes .

Hmmmmm.... Little cat .

Why was he calling me a cat .

I do fear you. I said in a low voice .

You don't have to fear me now we are married. It's only right you don't fear me. He said gently rubbing my hands.l felt the need to lean into his embrace but what if he didn't like it .

Yes , l will try not to fear you.

Damon looked at the turmid girl sitting in front of him. He could feel her shivering when he held her hands .

He isn't surprised that she feared him, everyone did.

He was surprised to see her when he met her at the altar . She had the same eye color as his. She was beautiful in her dress that hugged her curves well .

He didn't want this marriage but only because his brother nagged him to accept but now it seemed interesting.

How old are you. He asked.

Seventeen years duke.

Just call me Damon.

But you are a prince l can't...

And you are my wife he cut her off.

You understand right .

Yes Da ....Damon.

The way she said his name made him excited.

Ok you can rest it will take some time to reach the estate.

I nooded . How could l sleep when his presence was so dominate.

Eventually l felt asleep as l waited for my new life .
