Chapter 14


Melanie trailed a line of hickeys from Zara's ear to the base of her neck. They were both cuddled up in a shaded hammock between two trees. "It's so beautiful here," Melanie sighed.

"Like you," Zara chirped, "Corny." She realized. Melanie nodded then giggled. "Stop trying to eat me," Zara flinched when Melanie softly nibbled her earlobe.

"But you always try to eat me, but it's a problem when I bite back."


"Because you're edible, I'm not." Zara ran her fingers through Melanie's soft curly hair. "Well I've already abused you. There are visible marks everywhere because you're so light."

"You can do whatever you want with me my queen. I am at your disposal." Zara mimicked a servant's character.


The two went about the day enjoying themselves. Zara showed Melanie various places. They went to a museum, paintballing and even went swimming. They snacked all day by trying out free samples.

As the evening began to push in their daytime was coming to a close. "Let's go into this one last place, I have to see you in something."


Zara pulled Melanie into a shop full of wedding dresses. "Um, why am I about to try on wedding dresses. Was I not informed that we were getting married?"

"We're not getting married. I just want to see how the dresses look on you."

Zara rushed Melanie into a fitting room with a dress, "You should be excited. It's every girls dream to get married."


"Well, I've never had that dream. I've never even considered it," Melanie shrugged to herself. "I don't know. I don't really see the hype about it. What about you baby?" Melanie asked from over the door.

"Eh, marriage is for suckers." They both laughed.

The sound of a phone ringing ended their laugher, "I'll be right back baby, I'm going to step out and take this call!"

"Alright!"

Melanie tried on the big beautiful wedding dress. As she struggled to clasps the back she noticed feet outside of her dressing room. "Baby, is that you?"

The boots began to walk sideways as a hand jiggled the door knob a little then walked away. She stood frozen as shocked coursed through her. "Zara!" She called, "Yes baby I'll be there in a second!" She called back. Melanie slowly walked out of the dressing room and toward wherever Zara was. She felt like someone was watching her so she threw her eyes around and caught a glimpse of the same pair of feet exiting the store.


She let her shoulders sag and turned around. She jumped backwards when she came face to face with Zara. "Goodness! Announce yourself!"

Zara looked at her confused, "I had an entire step left before I even completely got to you." She laughed.

"You look freaking amazing," Zara marveled at Melanie, "Woooooow," she dragged.

"It's not even on all the way," Melanie blushed.

"Doesn't need to be," Zara bit her lip, "We should get married now..."

Melanie and Zara both burst into fits of laughter.

"Who was the important caller?" Melanie asked.

"Oh it was just my financial advisor."

"Is everything okay?"
"Of course baby, she was just letting me know I'm in the clear."


"It's been a couple of days I know your family is probably all over the place about you. Did you tell anybody where we were? "

"Absolutely not."

"...Not even your mom?"

Zara smirked, "Absolutely not."

"Okay well I'm going get out of this beautiful dress—

"Okay when your done I'll be right up here by the door," Zara pointed towards the glass entrance. "I've got to do something."

Melanie nodded and proceeded back into the fitting room to change her attire.




Few Hours Later

Hendrix was pacing the marble floor of his office trying to reach his daughter's cell for the thirteenth time that day as he waited for his company to arrive. He loosened his tie and feverishly removed his top coat and threw it over the chair.

His head snapped to the door when he heard two knocks. "Come in." He demanded. "Finally, it took you long enough."

"Well let's get right to it then shall we."

They both moved around the desk and Hendrix took a seat while the man leaned over his shoulder. "Did you find my daughter?"

"Yep."

"Was there someone with her?" he asked huskily.

"Sure was."

Hendrix slammed his fist down on the desk in frustration. "She's trying to pry my daughter away from this family!" Hendrix pulled up a picture of Melanie, "This is her. You have to get rid of her."

"Her? She's just some girl. You could easily poison her or something."

"No, because then my daughter would be a prime suspect. Just do your job!"

They both stood up and faced the other. Hendrix held out his hand for the other man to shake, "I've already deposited the money to your account." The man took his hand and shook it, "Then we have a deal."



Few Hours Later

"Baby," Zara sighed walking into the bathroom, wrapping her arms around a half-naked Melanie as she stood in the mirror, "Are you as exhausted as I am?"

"Very, that is why I'm about to do my nighttime routine, showering, and sleep.

"I'm going to assume that I'm a part of that nighttime routine... Right?" Zara put her head over Melanie's shoulder and nibbled on her neck making her moan. "...Because you can't forget to do me too."

Melanie giggled, "You're getting good baby."

"I'm so grateful for you. I want you to know that. Know that I love you and I can't wait to go through life with you because I know it'll be so much easier with you by my side." Melanie reached around and touched Zara's face. She then swirled around in her arms to gaze into her eyes. "Are you just saying that because I have money?" Zara joked squinting down at her lover. "No! Why would you think that!?" They both laughed, "I'm just kidding babe." Zara pressed a teasing kiss on the softness of the chocolate beauties lips. "I literally live for you now; to be with you. You are my happiness. My love for you grows more and more each and every day."

They leaned into one another and smashed their lips together. Melanie pulled away and walked Zara backwards towards the bed. "Let's get a little dirtier before I finish getting cleaned up." Zara cheesed and fell backwards onto the bed letting Melanie climbed on top of her as the two got tied into a romantic lovers quarrel.
