The Unwanted Marriage

Chapter 39

ARTHUR

Something felt wrong. I could feel it.

I couldn't really sleep last night. One, because I was worried with how my parents would react about Jessy's comeback and our son. And two, I was worried about Thea.

I didn't know why, but I felt like something was off with her recently.

2 days ago after I showered, I had hoped to cuddle with her and talk. But I found her already sleeping instead, with her back facing me. The same thing happened last night, which was so unlike her. We would always cuddle and talk before we go to sleep, or at least give each others goodnight kisses. Also, Thea never sleeps with her back facing me. Unless.. she was upset with me.

And it proved when I found her in our pool earlier this morning. She hadn't gone swimming in the morning for a few weeks, but now she did. And I knew she was upset when she did this.

I stood by the pool, waiting for her to go up to the surface. When she did, she looked surprised to find me. She wiped her face with her hands then swam over to where I stood.

I crouched down and searched her eyes. "Are you okay?"

She blinked. "I'm fine. I just feel like swimming, it's been a while."

I could tell she lied to me. "Are you sure? You always do this whenever you are upset."

She smiled, taking my hands in her. "I'm fine. It's just refreshing to swim in the morning."

I was not entirely sure if she told me the truth, but whatever it was I didn't want to push her. Besides, she didn't look like she was upset. Maybe I was just being paranoid for no reasons.

I sighed. "You will tell me if something bothers you, okay?"

"Okay."

Before I could register, she had grabbed my hand and pulled me into the pool with her. Her laugh reached my ears as I fell into the pool and soaked my self. I went to the surface and wiped my face with my hand.

"Come here you little monkey." I glared at her playfully.

She chuckled then swam away. I chased her, swimming to get her. But I didn't expect she was really good at swimming. She swam faster I couldn't keep up with her.

She looked over and grinned at me. "Catch me if you can."

"Oh I will, and you'd wish you didn't pull me into the pool with you, darling."

I swam again, catching her. It took me a while but there was a moment when she ran out of breath and slowed down, it was when I finally caught her. She squealed as I grabbed her waist and pulled her against me.

"Gotcha!"

She laughed and wrapped her arms around my neck instead. I wrapped mine around her waist, pressing her front onto mine.

"I should punish you for this."

"Yeah? What are you gonna do to me?"

I could think of ways to punish her. Her eyes slightly widen as she could feel my cock hardened against her stomach.

I smirked. "That's for me to think and for you to find out later. But first, let me kiss those needy lips."

I captured her lips with mine. Those lips were addicting. I kissed her, hard, like I couldn't get enough of her.

"You're not going to fuck me here in the pool, are you?"

I chuckled. "As tempting as it sounds, I don't want to scare our maids with the show."
