Asher put her down on the bed and lay beside her. With the help of his elbow he supported his face and looked at her . He caressed her cheek with his index finger.
"You are finally here , in my house , in my bedroom, on my bed with me. I don't have to look for reasons anymore to see you and I don't have to worry that you will got far away from me when I am not looking at you. I can see you all day and no can interrupt me. When I will solve all the issues, I will spend more time with you . Then we can make up for the time, we have lost."
He kissed her on the forehead and put her head on his arms and hugged her.
Next day in morning, Amelia opened her eyes and for a moment she couldn't understand her surrounding. She then remembered that she got married yesterday. She just got used to the house of Smith but she was in a new environment again. The room was kind of a room she has never seen . Her old room cannot be compared to it at all. It was the second time when she got taken aback by a beautiful scenery.
' It must be Asher's house....not only his house but..his room and I am .....I was sleeping on his bed ? '
She immediately checked herself and she was covered pretty well , infact too well, which meant nothing happened last night.
" I think I slept for too lon-"
Just as she was speaking Asher came out after taking a shower. He was wearing only a towel , which was only enough to cover his thighs.
Unconsciously, Amelia checked him out from bottom to top. Finally her gaze landed on his eyes which were looking at her, embarrassed she moved away her gaze.
He moved closer to her which made her breathing irregular.
" It's okay, you can look at me , I don't mind . As long as you want this body, it is all yours." He said with his deep voice , which was very seductive for some reason.
" I am going to take a bath" she said and ran straight inside .
Sitting in the bathtub, she calmed her fast heartbeat. Her cheeks were red, it was indeed too much for her to resist.
" What the heck, when did he started talking like that? I remember in the novel , he never said something in this way. "
Her mind started to replay the scene of his half naked body again , and her nose almost bled.
" In the novel ,he did kissed her but he never tried sleeping with her . And yesterday , he did nothing at all. In the future,he is gonna do it or not? "
When she thought about the possibility that they will only live like roommates, there was a regret in her heart.
Suddenly, she came out of her thoughts and realised what she is thinking. She couldn't believe herself and started to slap herself on the cheek.
" You girl, you have finally lost it. Even the villian is mannerful enough to not be this cheap. Oh oh oh , I am so dirty minded. How can I think like this about a man I have just met ."
She fanned herself with her hand to cool down .
" On second thought, it's not my fault that I am being like this. He is literally the man inside a novel, who can resist him? Infact I am doing quite good , my patience that I have to learn in so many years have helped me quite a lot. "
" But why am I sounding like some cheap guys ? "
She shook her head. " There is no time for this , first of all, I have to throw all this drama out of my life. My first priority has always been to live a peaceful life. So , right now I am not in a good situation. According to the story, Amelia had a big fight with him yesterday and in the morning she said some hurtful words to him. When he enters in the house with Amelia , he sends all the maid back. In the morning, he forced her to make breakfast. After that the maids came back but they knew that their relation is not good and their behaviour was pretty bad towards Amelia."
" I have not done or said anything to hurt him, but....that idiot 'sister' of mine created all that trouble and also why the heck that Lucas came yesterday. If he has enough time to waste , he can waste it on Olivia. Asher was not in a good mood yesterday and Lucas made it worse."
She sighed " Well it's only some cooking , I don't mind doing that. But, I am not gonna tolerate if anyone tries to pick a fight with me. If they think I am a bad person for raising my voice, then they can think so . I have no plan to change my image anyway. "
Thinking about all of this helped her to get Asher's ' lovely' image out of her mind . Otherwise she might get intoxicated, and it will be not good if she loses her mind.
She picked a dress from the walk in closet , which was filled with new dresses.
" I didn't even have the chance to wear all the dresses in the Smith house . But the dresses here are quite nice. Whoever picked the dresses have a good taste. "
She got ready and walked out of the closet. When she entered, she saw Asher in his usual formal outfit.
" It seems like you enjoy taking a bath , I was waiting for an hour but you didn't came out. " He said with his hands inside the pocket.
" Well - I - "
" I will tell the servant to bring some herbs for you, which can be used for the bath . If you have anything else you need ,you can tell them . "
" Huh? " That was not the response Amelia expected. She thought it to be like ' You took so long ,it means you were hiding from me ' in a tyrant manner. But it was completely opposite.
He took her hand and head towards the dining table. " Let's go to have some breakfast."
" You were waiting for to do breakfast together.? Are not you going to be late for work ?" Amelia asked while walking as she was pleasantly surprised.
" It's your first day in the house, and I want to join you for your first breakfast in this house." He said as they were going downstairs.
She was happy to hear that someone is waiting for her to eat but the way she thought was different from others and so a thought struck her .
' Wait, is he waiting for me because he want me to make the breakfast. I don't mind making it but is isn't it too much, he actually waited for an hour to make me do the work . No matter how handsome a person is , but he cannot do such awful things with such a lovely expression. This is so wrong. ' She thought and stared at him with side eyes .
When they reached downstairs, she saw maids greeting them.
' He didn't send them back? I wonder how things went yesterday. '
But to her surprise he took her to the dining table instead of kitchen . There were various dishes on the table and all looked delicious.
She looked at him surprisingly " I am going to eat this ? "
He looked at her eyes which became bigger with surprise and his heart softened " Why , you don't like this? "
" I like this but...you were angry yesterday but today....."
Indeed he was angry yesterday, he was not listening to any of her explanations. He was also amazed about his feelings. Maybe it was because of the hug yesterday which she gave while sleeping or her innocent face which he looked at for hours or may be because she is his wife ,he wanted to treat her and give her the best things in the world.
" You look cute when you sleep, and you fell asleep quite quickly. " He said while helping her situation on the chair.
" Well usually, I don't sleep this fast." She said as picked up a bite.
She was trying to sleep early these days , so that she does not die like her previous life. But she was not able to do so , and she was afraid that even this body 's health is gonna deteriorate . She didn't knew how ,but she felt so relaxed yesterday and she fell asleep without knowing . And she slept for so many hours after such a long time.
" Do you like the food? " He asked looking at her.
" Hmmm" She said nodding.
" In that case , don't run away. Stay with me , and you can eat all the delicacies in the world." He said and looked at her with hope.
"_"
Amelia stopped chewing the food and looked at him . His expression was serious and there was no hint of any joke.
' Is he really trying to seduce me with food? Do I look like such a foodie? I am eating like a human right now ... right? '
