Mated To The Devil

Chapter 52: Just The Two of Us

Natasha's POV

"I was delighted when you said you love beaches and you were excited to leave," Valerian told me as we walked towards the room of the yacht that he was just talking about.

"Really? Why is that?"

"I really want you to experience this— you know, spend a whole night in the yacht. It's a nice experience and feeling but too bad we are not sailing."

"It will still be the same right?"

"It will still be the same."

I smiled at Valerian's words.

Valerian opened a door, revealing a really really beautiful and spacious room.

"Wow, this the room?"

"Yes, darling."

I immediately went inside and walked around.

It's so pretty and you can see the outside through the windows of the room. It's beautiful to look out even though it's dark outside but I imagine being here and looking out of the window tomorrow.

Gosh, I will definitely do that!

"This is so nice," I said as I sat on the bed and felt the softness of the bed with both my hands.

It's so soft and it smells so good.

It's like the rooms back at the mansion except it was kind of vintage and the room here is all modern.

From all the designs and decorations— it's modern.

Valerian was really telling the truth when he said that this yacht was a new model. It shows.

I lay down on the bed and the softness of the bed quickly enveloped me that I unknowingly closed my eyes.

As I felt the silence of the place, I became intently wary of the surroundings and felt how the yacht was slowly and calmly moving. It's like floating in clouds. It must have been the waves crashing through the dock where the yacht is tied next to.

I felt the weight of the other side of the bed shift, making me open my eyes.

Valerian lay down beside me.

"Are you tired?" he asked.

I nodded.

I'm not really tired but feeling the comfort of the bed and the place-- it calmed me down and I just want to lay here and not do a thing.

"Hey," Valerian called.

I turned to my side to face him.

Valeria scooched closed to me and I laid my head on his arm.

I know that it's not entirely just the place and surroundings the reason why I feel so calm-- it's because Valerian is here with me. So close to me that I can almost hear his heartbeat.

~*~

I woke up just in time for the sun to rise. I can see the rays of the sun that are starting to curse through the window.

I could feel someone breathing beside me and I turned my head to see Valerian still lying beside me with his arm wrapped around my waist.

His eyes are closed and he looks so peaceful sleeping soundly.

I took the opportunity to look at Valerian's face because I can now see clearly his features.

I intently stared at him and noticed how long his eyelashes were, how his nose looked so perfect and centered, and how perfectly structured his jawline was. He looked like a Greek sculpture. He looked majestic.
