Lonely Bride

I Am Fine



SARAH’S POV

What is wrong with both of them? Did they fight over something? I guess I must talk to them later.

“I am fine. Nathan, thanks for asking. By the way, are you guys going somewhere?” I asked, looking at them all, ready to leave.

“Yeah, we are leaving for Philadelphia for the meeting.” He said this, looking at his watch. “I think we should leave now, but before we leave, can I talk to you privately?” He asked, looking at Sean.

Yeah, sure,” I said. I got up and started walking towards the garden with him.

I saw Sam coming behind, but intentionally, she was walking slowly and giving Nathan time to talk to me.

What is wrong? Now I am dying to know the problem between them.

We stopped near the chair, and I asked, “What is it, Nathan? Something is wrong between you and Sam.” I saw Sam standing far away from us, talking to someone over the phone.

I know she is just acting.

“Do not worry about that first, you tell me. Will it be okay if we go to a meeting? Or else Sam can stay here with you. I do not want to leave you here all alone.” Nathan spoke in a concerned manner, and I know how much he cares for me.

Holding his hand, I said, “I am fine, Nathan; do not worry. Sean can do anything, but he will never harm me. I am safe here.” I assure him.Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

“I know. Despite that, I do not feel like leaving you here. Are you sure you will be fine?” He asked again.

“I am sure not to worry. We are just a call away. So do not worry, just go already.” I assured him.

He nodded, still not looking convinced.

“Now tell me, what is wrong between you two?” I asked, looking at Sam’s pale face.

“Can we talk about this later, or maybe once we are back? Right now, I do not want to talk, Sarah,” he said, rubbing his hands on his face.

I can see he is frustrated. But right now, I do not want to push it hard, so I let it pass.

Ok, then, I’ll take your leave. I will be back in two days.” He said one go looking at his phone while giving me a quick hug.

I nod again.

He started walking and went towards the car without giving Sam a single glance.

Sam came to me and said, “Sarah, will you be okay here, right?”

“Yeah, I am Sam; do not worry. What is wrong with you and Nathan?” I tried my luck.

“Well, let us not talk about that right now. He is waiting for me. I will call you at night once I am free,” she replied, looking at the car Nathan was in.

“I will wait,” I said, hugging her.

They both left, and I sat back at my place, looking at the beautiful, lush green garden.

When I was here, I always saw this garden from afar. I never came to this site. The chilly breeze was kissing my skin, giving me goosebumps a little, and the smell of roses was so alluring. This place is more beautiful because of the water fountain in the middle of the garden. The swans were pretty, and the little swan’s wings were so cute running around.

I still cannot believe Sean has made this heaven. How can a ruthless man be so creative and thoughtful?

Leaving him aside, I close my eyes, thinking of the time I spend here. Well, apart from being lonely, I was happy here. This place was always a home for me. Sean’s declaration did not make my heart believe this place was not mine. I stayed in the cocoon provided by Sean, and the feeling that we were both at least on the same roof was more than enough, and I guess that is why I spent these many months here with no complaint.

However, I wanted his presence, which I never got. Well, they did not give me any choice but to get married to him, but why did he agree to the same?

This is still taboo for me.

I guess I should ask him this, but not before taking my revenge for bringing me here without my permission.

But what to do?

“Sarah.” I heard his irritating voice, but I acted as if I were sleeping.

I felt his finger on my face. His finger was tracing my forehead to my lashes and to my nose, and he stopped at my lips.

I felt him rub his thumb on my lips, then my chin, and then my neck.

It literally freaked my mind out, wondering where the next stop of his finger would be. But he stopped at my neck and touched my small mole on the right side of my neck.

I was holding my breath at his gesture and did not know what to do, but I wanted to see what he was going to do.

Does he know I am not sleeping? However, that did not stop him from touching me.

I heard his whimper, took a deep breath, and then took his hand away because I did not feel his hand on my neck anymore.

Next, I knew I was in his arms.

God, which perfume does this guy use? I put my head on his shoulder and sniff at his scent as much as I want.

Why am I feeling like I’m losing my mind, and why do I want to roll my tongue where I am sniffing? A powerful urge engulfed me to taste his skin.

I gulped inaudibly and greased my dry throat a little.

This guy always made me thirsty and wet.

His one hand was on my knees and the other was on my back, behind my chest area, but his fingers were dangerously close to my breast, or, let us say, touching my breast from the sides, and I was feeling hot, like boiling, and my face was heating.

“You can tell me directly when you want to come to my arms, honey; you do not have to pull this act.” He spoke, coming way too close to me.

I could feel his hot breath on my face, and he brushed his lips intentionally down my cheeks.

I bit my lips to control my smile but failed big time because I heard his chuckle.

God, this is so embarrassing.

I felt my body land on a soft surface while I dared to open my eyes.

I took turns, hid my face in my pillow, and heard a laugh, which I could die for.

I felt his lips on my hair. “Sleep baby, I will be around if you need anything.” I said I felt a comforter on me and heard the door closing sound.

‘Gosh, it was so embarrassing. Why did I let him hold me? Now I am sure he will tease me till I die.’

‘But well, let us sleep. This bed is comfy. I will handle everything when the time comes.’ I thought I went into a deep slumber.
