Right here and now, I let everything melted away but Markian. All of my thoughts and plans that didn’t include him descipated into thin air.
“I know now. I understand exactly how much you love me now. And I’m sorry I didn’t notice until now. Markian I’ve been too careless with your feelings for the past few months and only thinking just about mine. But if you give me another chance, I promise to do right by you this time… because I truly and honestly love you. Always have and always will…” I told him.
As though I had no more battles to fight and all my uncertainties had disappeared, I told Markian what was truly in my heart.
He loves me dearly and has chosen me, that was all I’ve ever wanted and I was no longer ashamed to admit how selfish that might sound.
Tonight, I shamelessly made my first love confession to my husband.
“But if you still hate me so much so you’ve lost faith me, it doesn’t matter. I’ll convert you again and restore your faith in me, because I know I won’t stop loving you and neither would you. And you even promised you’d believe and forgive anything I do or say.” I recited the promise he had once made to me.
When I saw a stubborn smile graze his soft sweet lips, I moved in closer and closed the space between us with a kiss.
He grabbed me hungrily and pulled me up on his laps as he kissed me with all his might, and I reciprocated with equal hunger.
I was in the wrong to have made the worse kind of assumptions on how Markian truly felt about me. I know that now and I’ll never make such mistake ever again.
I pushed him on the bed and towered above him. Even though I was blushing from embarrassment, I began to undress- not taking my eyes off him for even a second .
“I love you Livy. And I’m sorry I made you doubt me, but I promise to be a better husband to you if you’ll still have me” Markian commented, surprising me.
I nodded with a smile, before I went on to remove his shirt, exposing his sexy abs. Damn! I really I’m a pervert. The rest of the night was… let’s just say, all was forgive.
The next morning, I woke up feeling excited with Markian beside me.
We were in a spooning position with him behind me, and I immediately felt hot at the realization that we were both naked under the cover.
I shivered slightly in excitement as the memories of the night came flood in, accidentally waking Markian.
“Goodmorning, Love” he growled smoothly, pulling me closer.
I was already turning red as I felt his member between my buttcheeks. I froze in both surprise of his mindless action and the lustfulness the sound of his voice spark in me.
“G… g… goodmorning” I forced myself to voice out naturally.
It is hard to reply as his hands trailed my skin, sending me into a pleasurable panic.
Oh. my. world. I need to speak to Markian about Sophia, but at this rate we both might end up getting caught.
“Mar… Markian? I have to tell you something important.” I blurted out in a haste.
He immediately stopped and turned me to face him as he stared into my eyes. I swallowed hard as I met face to face with him. His hair was in a sexy mess, and his biceps contracted showing its bulginess as his fingers trailed my face to tuck strands of hair falling out of place.
“You still need to leave, don’t you?” he asked directly, shocking me.
How did he know what I was thinking about?
But, after the threat I got from Sophia, I don’t think my baby and I are safe in this place any longer.
“Sophia won’t let us happen, and I fear for our safety.” I blurted out sadly.
My eyes went wide with surprise when Markian’s hand which once rested on my face had made its way down to my stomach.
I thought I was imagining things late night when we were… making love, and his hand would just naturally land on my belly, caressing and kissing there with tender love and care.
He knows I’m pregnant and he didn’t say a word about it at all last night and neither did i. This must be one of the things he was complaining about that I need to share with him. When will I learn?
“I agree… Until I find a way to properly put an end to these Sophia madness, I have to make sure you and our baby are both safe- far from here and far from her.” He stated protectively.
“You knew- you knew everything but acted like you didnt, why?” I asked even though I knew the answer.
“Because, I want to be a major priority in your life. I want be your companion, lover and partner, just like you are to me. I was willing to wait for as long as that would take to happen if I hadn’t found out you were about to leave me.” He answered with a longing that felt familiar to mine.
Markian knew everything that was going on but he was ready to wait patiently for me to trust him enough to tell him myself.
I can’t believe I ever doubted his feelings for me and thought he would go back on the promises he made to me. I’m indeed grateful to my stars, my destiny, my fate and to God. Meeting Markian is the greatest miracle in my life.
“I’m so sorry I lied to you, I thought I could handle it all by myself. I should have trusted you…” I started but Markian stopped me.
“That was yesterday, so let’s not go back. Ok? From now on you only need to worry about yourself and that little warrior inside of you, while I’ll handle the rest. I’ve spoken to your mother, she’s expecting you. So, you’ll go over to her house today and stay there for the meantime. It’ll be a lot safer there and I’ll come see you as often as I can.” He ordered and I nodded in agreement.
He kissed my forehead, my nose, then my lips, before he got out of the bed butt naked. I blushed and looked away shyly as he tried to put on his clothes that were littered on the floor.
He soon caught me staring at his naked body and smirk evilly before he asked, “You like what you see?”
I shied away and turned to the other side of the bed without giving an answer to his question which is quite obvious.
“You really are the cutest pervert I’ve ever seen. I’ll send a maid to come help you pack your bags” he instructed with a playful smile before heading out of the room.
I couldn’t help my embarrassment so, I covered my face with my hands smiling to myself even after he had left.
I stayed a few more minutes on the bed, before I got up and went into the bathroom to wash off and prepare for the day.
I had forgotten everything, the pain, the fear and doubt- everything was like a distant nightmare that is rapidly fading. I must have been too happy and excited to have attracted the evil that visited me few minutes before I could leave to my mother’s house.
Markian wanted to drive me to the Luthel Mansion, but he got an urgent call from the office 6mins ago. He was reluctant to leave me alone but I persuaded him to go, that the driver would go drop me off at my mother’s place.
My bags were already in the car, so I picked up my phone and purse from the dresser to leave, when an anger-possessed Sophia barged into my room and shut the door.
She launched for the vanity beside my makeup desk and sent it crashing to the ground, shattering the glass into large pieces. She moved to the broken glass and picked up a piece.
She looked dangerous, so I panic in fear and dialed Markian’s phone no. Before I knew what was going on, she drew closer to me and knocked the phone out from my hand. I flinched in fear and desperation, and my hands began to shake.
“So… so… Sophia, please calm down and lets talk this out amicably. Let’s not do anything we both would regret later.” I pleased to a furious looking Sophia, but she wasn’t stopping.
She kept coming closer and closer as I kept moving backwards and away from her. I ran towards the door and turned the knob, but it didn’t bulge. I pulled again and again, but it would’nt and that terrified me more.
“Is this what you’re looking for?” Sophia’s asked.
She cooed with so much darkness and evil, it sent me into an even higher panic mode. She had the keys to the door and I can’t get out. If I move close to her and try to drag the key away from her she might stab me with the broken piece of mirror she held in her hand.
