VALLENTINO

I am now a married man , married to the one who stole my heart and disappeared , my Sophia is now back in my arms in the form of Selena and this time I would do anything and everything to keep her with me but for now I had to get her comfortable

" Take off the heels Selena" I told her noticing her discomfort in the car

"What! No, I mean we are almost at your house right I can handle on " She responded but she made a mistake

" Not mine alone , Cherie it's our home now and I mean in , take it off" I told her with finality

"Okay as you say my husband " She commented while taking off the heels with a smile I can never get tired of seeing

"And we are here " I said softly getting out to open her side of the car door

"Thank you" I could sense the surprise at my act in her voice but I could see even more awe in her eyes at the sight of our new home

"Shall we?" I requested getting a nod in approval

"It's gorgeous, finally am here where you live and that too with you " She said heartily I couldn't help but feel special

"Cherie it's a new home , I had it constructed the day are marriage was fixed " I told her remembering how precise I was in this project and how happy I felt that it all paid off

"Ohh, what about where you lived before?,why did you need a new home?" She questioned , I didn't know what answer to give false or true

I couldn't stay in a place with only hurtful memories or I didn't want her to start her life with me in a place with an unfinished story so I said neither

"Nothing really, just I wanted you to have the best "

"Aww that's sweet "

"Now if you would like , I would show you around but first let's have a meal " I said leading us to the dining table

"Yes"

-----Minutes Later

"That was amazing " Selena commented and I had to agree the food was amazing , maybe cause it's my wedding day everything seemed to taste better down to a glass of water

"Right"

" The first lasagna I've had outside Etoria's that tastes awesome " She exclaimed happily but I could tell she was missing the Harlem mansion though am grateful she wasn't letting it dwell on her

"Am glad you liked it "

"Of course I did, just like our wedding" She said igniting the flame I felt during the wedding all over again

" I loved it , every second and most importantly I claimed you now everyone knows you are mine Chérie" I said with a wide grin on my face

"And you are mine too V especially after all you vowed to me " She said with a grin as well that I was sure would have matched mine

" I have no qualms " I said raising my hands in surrender

" Was it just me or did we both had no idea about the vows?" She asked

" I had no idea , I was shocked " I responded sincerely

" Me too , I literally started panicking , good thing you spoke up first " she said chuckling but as a newly married man I already knew it was more than that , with women , men had to read in between the lines of their words so I asked her directly

" You want to know ,don't you?"

" No I understand you had no idea about the vows so you just said whatever came to your head " She said frantically but I knew not to drop the topic not just cause I knew she wanted to hear it but because I wanted her to know , my heart wanted to be heard

"Ma Cherie ,Selena you have no idea , yet you made vows back to me " I asked teasingly before telling her what it was all about

"I meant it , every word and every vow , I meant it all. A lucky man like myself would never say just anything to you as a vow , I may not deserve you but you deserve my sincere words and that's what I did , I poured my heart's vows to you , understand?" I said to reassure her that I was serious in this marriage with her

"Y...yes I do , am sorry I felt like that I just thought I was the only sincere one , very rash of me ,am sorry" She said so quickly I almost missed the meaning of her words in between

"You meant it?"

"Well..uuh , V you know that I...I am feeling very tired , can talk more later how about you give me the tour you spoke about " She said making excuses to not repeat herself . I felt sad she didn't say it but I heard it the first time so I sucked it all up

"Sure " I said getting up while spreading my left palm which she placed her right palm in and soon I was giving her a tour round the mansion

"And finally , Cherie this will be our room" I said opening the door to the only room on the second floor

"Woooooowwww, it's amazing V, you set this house up so well" She said turning around and placing a sweet kisses on my lip but she left so quickly I wanted more

"Cherie, I assume you would want to rest tonight please do not tempt me" I said clenching and unclenching my fist to control myself

" Ooh , am sorry I would just go shower and then go to bed"

" Okay, I'll wait" I said as I watched her go in the bathroom . I took off my watch and wedding suit leaving myself in just my briefs and then I decided to knock the bathroom door as Selena had been in there for a while now

" Selena" I called out to her and finally she opened the door and in that moment I don't know if it's just my self control that sucks or she was punishing me on purpose

"Why are you in nothing but a towel , Selena" I asked with gritted teeth

" I..I forgot , y..you know I don't have my things here , so I don't have any clothes to wear " she said tucking her chin to touch her chest so I grabbed her chin with my left hand tilting her face to look up at me and then I used my right hand to bring her right hand right ok my crotch

" Cherie I can only do so much , do you know how much pain am in so please huh, do me a favour and get any cloth you wish from the closet and please put it on, I really don't want to do anything this night for your own good , okay " I said calmly and let her chin and hand go

" Okay" she mumbled softly as she as walked past me to the closet and I could see a sign of disappointment flash on her face , gawwd she really doesn't know what I have planned for her but for now let's take care you , big guy

" Are you asleep" I said in the air directed at Selena who was laying in the bed

" No V , I was waiting for you" She said standing up and that's when I saw her, she was in a  shirt of mine and I know very well how to unbutton shirts in a split second but I was thrown back to the present when I felt her pull me by my hand in distress while muttering

" What took you so long , did you eat in there ?, how much do you weigh?"  She said panting and I couldn't help but laugh and then I pulled her to myself and led to to the bed ,wrapping the comforter over us

" You took me so long in there , it all your fault and don't look at me , I can feel it too but I will have my revenge for this pain , we would be flying out on our honeymoon tomorrow, I have plenty of time to relieve the pains of today so just go bed and get prepared for tomorrow " I said as I pulled her to myself , spooning her

"Goodnight,V"

"Goodnight "
