The honeymoon suite set the mood. The faint smell of flowers made it all too real. The room was only dimly lit, decorated beautifully with candles and white flowers.
When the guests first got the invitation, they were rather confused. Why would an already married couple marry again? That, too, after a year? Nevertheless, they came. Their happiness was contagious, everyone was smiling, and the atmosphere was joyous. No one dared to question the happy couple.
And here they were on their second honeymoon.
Ella struggled to pull the flimsy white lingerie on. Once she was done, she stood in front of the mirror. The lace and ribbons made her feel sexy but no matter what, the scars were still very visible.
No matter how much Zach said he didn't care that she had scars and he still thought she was the most beautiful woman, she couldn't help but feel a bit insecure. Ignoring the feeling, she messed with her hair for a bit and took a deep breath to calm her nerves.
Anxious and excited, Ella dashed to the bed the second the shower turned off. She sat at the edge, her feet dangling as she waited for her husband to show up. Her heart was thudding painfully fast, and she was excited to see Zach's expression.
Zach entered the room naked, only a towel hanging over his waist. The second his eyes fell on Ella, he halted in his steps. His eyes hungrily roamed around her body, and his eyes weren't emerald green anymore but dark.
But then he momentarily shut his eyes, and when he opened them, they were back to emerald green ones. Passing her a warm smile that she couldn't return, Zach grabbed his pyjamas before walking inside the bathroom again.
Ella felt dejected. The least he could do was tell her how she looked.
Ella fiddled with the beautiful ring on her finger. No matter what, she would get it today. It had been a year, and she hadn't gotten the nightmares since so long. Zach had always been extremely cautious. He would try his best to keep her away from anything that was triggering.
It had already been a year, and they never went past the hot makeout sessions. They did more in her dreams. Ella wanted to change that today. She had been planning this for so long.
Zach returned shirtless, his muscular chiselled chest and abs for Ella to thirst upon. But this time, Ella was determined to do more than just look at them.
"You look beautiful, sweetheart."
Her heart fluttered, and she sighed in relief. But did he really like it, though? She couldn't help but wonder why someone like him would stay with her, abused, bruised, abnormal girl.
Insecurities, they were killing her.
Zach could read her like a book. He ran his hand over his hair a couple of times before taking a seat next to her and pulling her to him.
