Chapter 19 - Chapter 19

The weather might change Damon take a coat . Selene could not allow her husband to get drenched like the last time when Levina dried his hair .

No , the weather won't change dear wife. Damon was heading to climb his horse at the entrance.

But you will get drenched like the last time . Take the coat Selene was being persistent.

Last time , did you see me drenched. But l only saw Levina . Xavier told me that you were a sleep .

Ahhh .. Selene was tongue tied . She didn't want to tell him that she came to see him but found another woman wiping his hair .

Tell me wife ..... Did you see me that day . He had allowed Levina to wipe his hair but if his wife saw him that means she saw Levina too.

She just looked down and didn't tell him anything.

Leave, Damon shouted . All his men scattered from the entrance of the estate and left the couple alone .

Selene talk to me . He couldn't bear the sadness in her eyes . She looked wronged . He cupped her cheeks sofly to make her look into his eyes.

Her beautiful eyes .

Tell me wife . Don't hide anything that disturbs you . We promised to make this marriage work and communication should be efficient between us .

She opened her mouth to speak .

I came to see if you were back but when l reached the stairs l...l

Go on . He needed to know what she was thinking and what she saw .

I saw Levina drying your hair .....so l went back inside to my room . Selene said with tears brimming in her eyes . She was deeply hurt when she saw Levina with her husband. They were standing so intimately with each other .

She felt like her life would never change. Maybe she was not meant to be happy in this life.

Why did you leave . Damon wondered. She could have made her presence known . He would be happy to let her dry his hair instead of Levina ..

I didn't want to spoil your moment.. he just realized that she had tears in her eyes . She must have probably thought that he liked Levina just like the rumours said .

There was no moment between us ,she threatened me that if l didn't allow her to dry my hair and you saw me looking so shabby. You would not like my appearance on your first day here.

Wife , there is nothing going on between me and Levina. She just my childhood friend and you are my wife okay.

The explanation he gave was believable and l knew Levina did it intentionally so that l could see them and feel jealous. What a snake.

Don't misunderstand and worry your self for anyone but me okay. Am your husband and you should think only about me okay.

Damon coaxed his wife gently. He rubbed her soft cheeks. She was beautiful. She nodded to him and he used this opportunity to hug her .

It was there first hug and she felt like home. Her small frame against his big one .

The hug was sudden but Selene found comfort in it . Atleast the thought of Levina and her husband liking each other was lifted off her shoulders.

It only meant one thing . That Levina was forcing her self on Damon . She will have to ask her maids whether she used to come here before her marriage.

Damon wanted to pull away from the hug but Selene was just beginning to enjoy the hug .

She placed her hands on Damon's waist and pulled him closer . She was enjoying the sound of his heartbeat . It was beating fast just like hers .

Damon was shocked by her actions. Earlier when he had hugged her , she didn't respond to his hug and when she suddenly wrapped her hands around his waist . He felt good with what she did.

Not knowing that a certain someone was watching them from the window above .

Nonsense
