No am not blushing , l said trying to stand up from the seat but he pushed me back.
Oh my God , how am l to handle this now. I can't even face him .
It's okay to be shy , but we are married now we should get used to each other if we want this marriage to work. Damon said and l froze in my seat .
I didn't expect him to talk about our marriage working just so casually but it saved me the energy for asking him myself. I don't even think l have such courage to bring up the topic .
Now that l have decided to make this marriage work , we should talk about it properly. I thought to myself.
D....Do you really think this marriage will work out. I voiced out my internal fears.
Damon just starred at me like he couldn't believe what l said .
Selene , my name rang sofly out of mouth. Like it was meant to be that way.
He took a deep breath to calm himself. He didn't know why he was so affected by her question.
Let's continue talking inside it's getting cold out here. Damon guided me towards my bedroom.
I felt nervous having him come into the bedroom but l realized we will be staying in the same bedroom when we become comfortable with each other .
Damon made me sit on the bed while he added more wood to the fire to keep us warm and joined me on the other side of the bed .
My heart was beating so loudly just by him sitting next to me on the bed.
Selene , are you comfortable. Should l cover you .
No .....am not cold .
He was everything right now . Gentle, caring and loving .
We all kept quite each not saying a word .
What do you think about this marriage Selene . Damon finally spoke breaking the silence.
I was caught off guard with nothing to say but we had to talk about our marriage.
I ....I just know that this marriage was arranged between our families and you were probably forced into it since the rum.....
I kept quite, how could l tell him that the rumours about him said that he didn't want to get married because he was a devil and he likes men.
Hmmm continue tell me what you wanted to say wife. He tried to coax her to get her to continue talking.
It's nothing that's all.
Selene, if this marriage is to work then we both have to be honest among ourselves and not keep secrets. Do you understand my wife.
Damon held my chin and made me look at him directly.
Now tell me , l want you to be honest . And l hate liars .
It's just that the rumours say you like men that's all.
A dark chuckle echoed in the room and l felt scared for some reason. Was this the same man who was acting loving a while ago.
And you believed it. People will always talk about other people.
And l don't like men for your information
