I looked at Ara, and she was trying hard to control her laugh.
And before she could say anything, I said, “No. I have to talk to her about something important.” I nodded to Aunt Nina, and before anyone could say anything, I left the place holding her hand.
We went out and sat in the car and asked James to take us to the penthouse.
We reached my apartment and went inside. I will get some water for you, saying that she left it in the kitchen. I smiled and went behind her.
Once I reached the kitchen, I noticed some bags lying on the platform.
I looked back at Ara, and she noticed my sight and said, “It is food. I messaged James to get the food, as I know you must be hungry. Don’t worry; this time the food has come from my house, so it is safe. We will not get food poisoning this time.” She laughs at her joke.
“And when did you do that?” I asked, surprisingly.
“When we were in the hospital?” She said this and shrugged her shoulders. She gave me a glass of water and took one for herself.
I finished my water, put the glass on the sink, and said, “So you knew we would come here?”
“Of course,” she said, something like stating a matter of fact.
“And how come you were so sure?” I said, holding her by her waist.
She fidgeted with her fingers on the glass and said, “I knew you wanted to talk to me after the stunt I pulled today”. She said this, looking at her glass.
I “Hmm”
in response.
“But before that, I want you to eat something, and then we’ll talk.” She pushed me a little, and, taking out the plate from the cabinet, she went toward the dining room with a bag of food.
And I followed her like a lost puppy.
We finished our food quickly, and then I realized I was starving.
Afterward, we both went to the living room and sat on the sofa. She sat beside me and turned towards me so I could see her face fully, and I did the same.
She cleared her throat. I know she was nervous and said, “Ammm, sir, by the time you came to the hospital, the doctor had already informed us about Grandfather’s health. And I know he is very stubborn and will not listen to anyone. Then I got this idea.” She looked down, saying this.
I felt bad suddenly; she was there, but I did not notice her; I was so much in myself at that time.
“But why did you say it was our mutual decision?” I asked with a confused face.
“If I told them, it was my decision, they would’ve argued, but hearing your name, they all agreed with me.” Biting her inner cheek, she controls her smile.
“So, you used my name without my knowledge.”, Rather than questioning, it sounds like a statement. I asked, raising one eyebrow.
“Well, technically, you can say that, but I still argue about that. As I knew you would not mind,” She shrugs her shoulders.
“How come you are so sure, my little liar?” I held her hand and made her sit on my lap.
“Well, sir, I know you only care for three people in your life, and I know you will do anything for them. Here I was trying to solve the problem my way, and I knew you would support me.” She said this, holding my face in her palm.
“And see, I was not wrong,” she said, winking at me.
“Don’t you think you are becoming too bold nowadays, My Queen?” I asked while touching her jaw with my thumb.
“You are not liking this bold version of mine?” She asked another question.
AZAR’S POV
“I am loving it, and I want to see some more,” I said, biting her chin.
I can feel her uneven breathing. She holds my neck for support; a moan leaves her mouth, and I smirk at the effect I have on her.
“Now tell me how to say thank you to you. And what punishment do I have to give you?” I asked, smirking.
Hearing this, she backed off a little and asked, “Punishment? For what?”
“For lying,” I stated the fact.
“I did not lie to anyone.” She huffed in annoyance.
“Yes, you did. You said it was our mutual decision, but it was purely yours.”
“But it was for a good deed.” She whines.
“Of course it was, but still, a liar is a liar,” I smirk at her.
“Fine, so what punishment will I get?” she asked me, pouting her pink lips.
“That I will tell you later, but first let me say thank you to my wife on my way.” With no further delay, I smash my lips against hers.
It has been many days since I have not tested them, and now I want to devour them forever.
First, she was shocked by my sudden attack, but she started moving her lips with me.
So, my little rabbit is learning fast.
ARA POV
We broke the kiss to breathe. God, he kissed like a pro. How many girls must he have kissed so far to become this pro?
Thinking about other girls in his life spoiled my mood.
We were both panting hard with our eyes closed. Our foreheads touched each other.
Opening his eyes, he touched my fully swollen lips with his thumb and said, “I love them. They have become my addiction and my queen. You have become my addiction.” His voice was laced with warmth and affection.
I look down, as I don’t know what to say.
He touched my nuptial chain, looked at my hair, and said, “You are looking hot, Mrs. Azar Oldenburg.”
Hearing these goosebumps run throughout my body, my breath got stuck in my lungs, and reality hit me hard.
I.. AM… MARRIED…
TO… AZAR!
He was looking straight into my soul; his scrutinizing gaze was giving me sensations in my lower region.
