Chapter 98
Ariel
TWO MONTHS LATER
I stood before Dmitri with the priest holding a book in his hands. A petal dropped from the canopy of flowers that was used as a roof to shield us from the harsh rays of the sun.
And Dmitri beamed at me with the brightest smile I’d ever seen as we renewed our vows to each other in the presence of my parents, Vladimir, Liora and a few important Bratvan members.
He reached for my hands and squeezed them tenderly, peering into my eyes. “A year ago, I was bittered by the fact I’d be getting married to a woman whom I barely knew anything about. We met for the first time unconventionally and your sassiness strengthened my dislike toward the idea of marrying you. I continued to console myself with the fact that the alliance would help solidify the gang and our trade, but what I never knew was that the marriage was arranged to make me a better version of myself,”
His voice cracked as he paused and I began to wonder when he became this emotional.
I leaned close to him, resting my weight on my toes and I whispered words of comfort to him. “You can’t break down here, honey, your men will see you as weak,” I reminded him, pressing my lips lightly against his cheek.
“Thank you,” He whispered. “Years ago, I moved around with a mask that didn’t only hid my face, but my emotions as well. But you came into my life and yanked it off in your unique way. There’s no way I’d have survived all these hurdles if you weren’t by my side, Ariel, and right here in the presence of your family, I want to tell you how much I love you,”
My cheeks were flushed and it hurt slightly from smiling too much. My mind had turned into a puddle, created by Dmitri’s romantic words.
“I love you too,” My response flowed out from my heart genuinely. “You showed me that love could break any barrier and while at it, you gave me two gifts: Liora and the baby in my womb. I can’t wait to see you hold a vigil just to watch over him,”
“Him?” He cut in. “Do you want us to have a boy?”
The priest cleared his throat loudly and I was reminded that we didn’t have the privacy of our bedroom to bicker freely like toddlers.
Dmitri flashed a smirk that subtly said that we weren’t done with the conversation while the priest blessed us.
Our lips touched lightly with Dmitri’s hands running freely around my waist, causing shivers of pleasure to run down my spine. I couldn’t wait for the marathon session we would have tonight.
“Kiss her! Kiss her!” The mini crowd that formed the audience chanted and I plunged my tongue deeper into his mouth, kissing him with everything I had in me as he doubled the intensity.
A few more seconds passed and I tore my lips away, taking in deep calming breaths. One look at his sensually appealing lip and the hairs on my skin stood on end while we communicated silently.
“I’ll just go greet my parents,” I retreated from him.
He nodded in understanding and with a swift stride, he grabbed my arm and leaned down to my neck. “Let’s meet at the garage,” He whispered, brushing past me and going to talk with one of his men.
I tucked my curly brown hair behind my ear and drew in a deep breath. Mama lurched at me before I could know what was happening and wrapped her arms around me for a bear hug.
“I’m so happy that you’re happy, Ariel. I can still remember how scared you were when we told you about the marriage plans we had for you. The memories of how you absconded are still fresh in my memory and I don’t think I can ever forget it, but when I saw him defend you in your father’s study that day, I was convinced that he’d take care of you,”
Still held in her arms, I chuckled, the memories from that day flooding into my mind. “And if I’d known that everything would turn out this way, I would have allowed fate to take the lead instead of running away from it,”
“No regrets, sweet child, just take care of yourself and that baby in your womb. Your father and I can’t wait to spoil him or her,” She chirped on, finally releasing me from her hold.
“Thank you so much, Mama. I’m so glad that you could witness my happy day,”
She patted my head and kissed my forehead, my heart swelling with undiluted joy. This was the life I envisaged even though the journey to this point wasn’t that smooth.
After speaking with her, I took a cursory glance around in search of my father but he was nowhere to be found. We’d talked earlier, but I secretly wanted him to tease me about my pregnancy.
It had been a while since we talked at length and I missed him so much, but even more, I wanted to be with just one person right now.
So I veered off in the direction of the garage where Dmitri had asked me to meet him, my heart thudding faster in anticipation.
Dmitri was very spontaneous and adventurous and though that part of him scared me sometimes, I wasn’t sure I could live without it.
After taking a few turns, I caught the sexy sight of him, leaning against the door of his car. My heart hammered continuously as I bit my lips coyly while counting the number of steps I’d take before I got to him.
It was quite hilarious because he had deflowered me months ago and I was even carrying his baby, yet, his erotic lingering stare made me feel like a virgin bride.
“We shouldn’t do this here,”
He ignored my weak attempt at refusal and pulled me close to him aggressively. Thankfully, my cream-colored satin dress had a slit and I was wearing a pair of low-heeled sandals for comfort so I wasn’t bothered about tripping over and falling flat on my face.
“Are you saying you don’t want to have some fun?”
“What if someone hears me screaming?”
He bit his lower lip seductively. “I’m not bothered by anyone hearing us make love, besides, this is my territory and I’m free to do as I want with you,”
“Dominant much?”
“Only in bed, my queen,”
I slapped him on the chest playfully as our foreheads rubbed against each other. His nose grazed my skin until his lips found mine once again.
******
He placed me gently on the car seat and slammed the door behind him. We were in a limousine which gave us more room to do as we wanted.
“I’ve missed this,” He tossed off his jacket and planted his lips on my sternum while I lay on my back, my core throbbing with desire.
We hadn’t made love to each other since that incident with Anya. We kissed every day and we even relieved ourselves with our hands and mouths, but none of us were willing to take any further step.
I guessed our vow renewal did the magic. It was an assurance of an unending love between us, so I was no longer scared that he’d hurt me and I wished he wouldn’t hold back.
My arms snaked around his neck, humping my abdomen against his erection. “I’ve missed you too,”
“Tell me how you want to be fucked, baby. I want to hear you say it,” He growled and I shuddered.
Cupping his cheeks, I gulped and stared at him. “I don’t want you to hold back, Dmitri. My body misses you and I want to be fucked like a slut,”
He spanked my ass, tearing off my dress so that my breast bounced freely in front of him. “Don’t worry about the dress. I’ll drive us home after this. Continue,” He urged me.
“I don’t want your mouth to leave my nipples. I just want to feel you all over me,”
“Your wish is my command, kitten,”
He pressed hot kisses on every part of my body, his broad palms fondling my breasts without mercy. His lips trailed to my belly button and he licked it, unlocking a higher level of desire.
I writhed as he ministered to my body in the most carnal way possible. His mouth latched onto my nipple and his fingers expertly stimulated my pussy to its first orgasm.
A scream burst out of my lips, but he didn’t renege and I’d have been pissed if he stopped.
“Fuck me, Dmitri,” My voice went over the roof but I didn’t mind because I wanted him inside of me.
“Soon, baby,” He pulled off his pants and plunged his dick into my sheath hurriedly.
I clamped my legs around him, squeezing my pussy around his phallus with each thrust he made. His tip scratched my G-spot and a string of obscenities slithered out of my throat.
I plunged my waist forward and his cock sank deeper inside of me.
“You’re the only man for me, Dmitri. You don’t know how much I love you. Don’t ever stop fucking me like this,”
“You don’t have to tell me, kitten, because I own you. No one else can be with you,”
“No one,” I cried and another orgasm knocked me cold.
I could only do so much as jerk violently while he finished inside of me, the both of us panting heavily.
“We didn’t have a wedding night when we first got married, you remember?” He wiped the sweat off his face.
“Yeah, but it doesn’t matter. We’ve been given a second chance at love and I’m so grateful for it,” I blushed, stroking his hair.
