The Marriage Demands (#Wattys2017)

Chapter 7(M)

ZACKRIYA ISLAM

I kissed her lips so ragedly because I wanted to claim her soft lips ever since I kissed her on our nikkah day.

No doubt she's very plain looking but she's my plain jane. She's surprised me so much that it makes me want her.

I kissed her passionately until we were both gasping for air. I tightened my arms around her and leaned in to her neck.

Hmm, samsara. It suited her so well.

"Amber, are you sure? Do you want me to claim my wedding night tonight?" I murmured in her ear.

Her hands came up to my shoulders and she leaned closer to my ear.

"This is our wedding night, darling." She affirmed, her lips brushing against my earlobe.

Her small gestures were driving me crazy. Its strange. I used to be a notorious player back in college. There wasn't a night when i didn't get laid and charming girls was a habit but no girl ever had any affect on me as much as my wife had. I never allowed any other woman to try to come near. It was all physical with then.

But with my wife, its completely different. It isn't just physical, my heart is also involved.

Maybe that's it. Because she's my wife that's why im letting her make a place in my life and my heart- because i know that we are partners in life now. Maybe this is one of the pleasures of marital life that the imam had told me about. And I welcomed it wholeheartedly.

Collapsing on the bed together, my lips claimed her soft ones. I was becoming drunk in them. I released her lips and stared at her, her eyes were closed, her face turning away from me. I felt her body tense and quiver against mine. I brought her face around so that she could look at me.

"Amber, open your eyes," I breathed closed to her lips. Slowly, she opened her eyes-- her soft brown ones looking deeply into my blue ones. There was apprehension yet expectation there.

"Don't worry, I will never hurt you. This is your first time right?" I inquired softly. It was clearly obvious but I wanted to ask for my own information. I know that's she's a Virgin that's why she's scared right now but I wanted her to know that I was going to be extremely gentle to her because she's my wife and I would never hurt her.

"Yes," she replied, her brows furrowing. Looks like I offended her. I chuckled lightly and straightened her brows with my finger.

"Then know that's it's scary at first but it's gonna be okay." I pacified.

"Of course I know that. It's just. . . ," she paused and swallowed, her eyes looking down and that's when I noticed her already red cheeks getting brighter.

"I haven't been with a man in my life so it's a bit awkward and strange for me." She admitted coyly, her hands resting in my chest. I smiled widely and left one of her hand.

"Then I won't disappoint you or make you feel uncomfortable. Trust me, I'll take you to heaven tonight baby." I murmured in her ear and got on my knees. Taking my shirt off, I kept my eyes on hers. She tried to look away from my naked chest but I cupped her chin gently.

"Don't look away from me," I commanded. She obeyed and stared at me. I took her hands in mine and placed them on my beating heart.

"You feel that. I'm as nervous as you." I stated, my heart beating even  more fast then it already was.

She pursed her lips together and gave me a sincere look. I grinned widely. She was ready.

She propped up on her elbows.  Leaning closer, I began to plant kissed on her neck and jaw, my hands removing her net negligee from her shoulders. When my hands found the hook of her bra, I heard her take in a sharp breath. I kissed her shoulder to calm her down as I slowly took off her bra. Hugging her closely, I gently laid her down. She face was scarlet.
