Tiger Wife, Lion Husband (Love In The Realms) #1

Chapter 33: Wedding

The wedding day had come, Xue Liang was dressed up in her wedding dress. The maids all helped dress her as she did the make up. Su Rong then showed up as she was wobbling a little. Xue Liang could smell Su Rong and Peng Lim's scent mix together. She knew something happened since the scent mixes in with two people who've been together.

"Rong, how did your time with Lim go?" Su Rong blushed as she was speechless.

"I-It..." Xue Liang patted her head as she smiled looking at her.

"Your scent tells it all. If you love him then stay with him. If you love him then be with him." Su Rong smiled and hugged Xue Liang as she nodded. Soon the wedding started, and she was led to the awaiting wagon as Liu Gang remained on his horse. Peng Lim was rather happy as Liu Gang didn't want to think about what happened.

Going their way, they arrived bowing three times to one another. Everyone watched, Xue Liang was soon sitting down in the bed chambers for Liu Gang as he was drinking wine. She awaited in the bed chambers.

Footsteps were heard, the door opened as she couldn't see but Liu Gang's scent was easy to catch.

He lifted the layer that covered her face as he smiled seeing her. "My wife is beautiful, her amber eyes glow as the dusk moon, her lips red as cherry." He then sat on the bed as he hugged her from behind. "I won't touch you unless you consent." Xue Liang was nervous about it as she was happy he would wait for her to be ready.

"Gang..." She hugged his forearms that were in front of her as she then started removing her hair pins and changing into her sleepwear. Liu Gang hugged her in their sleep, he loved the fragrance of orchids from her. He wanted to touch her and make her his but he wouldn't do it unless she consent to it.

She turned around to face him as she rubbed her head against his chest. "Little tiger, what am I going to do with you?" He rubbed her back as he fell asleep.

Su Rong was on a tree branch resting and looking up to the moon. She sighed as Peng Lim then came up, she smiled about to jump away but he had hugged her from behind. "Don't try to run again." He whispered into her ear making her smile.

"I don't want others to see us together and start putting you down. Especially your father." Su Rong said worriedly. Peng Lim took a deep breath and held her tightly.

"It doesn't matter what my father or family thinks. You're all I need. Besides I already got rid of my consorts and my Manor. I'm living with Gang since he would be able to keep us safe from my father." Peng Lim told her.

"Lim..." She turned around and looked at him as she wrapped her arms around his neck. She kissed him as a quick peck and blushed looking down to her right.

"Let us be married and seen by the moon and sun. No one can separate us." He said. Soon seeing the necklace from the time he gave it to her when she was a baby clouded leopard. "This necklace you've always kept. From now on don't ever do anything dangerous without me."

He kissed her as he then carried her over his shoulder. "Lim!" She yelled at him for his actions.

"I'm going to punish you for trying to run away earlier so be prepared." Peng Lim said, starting to walk off.

"Today is Madam Liang and Master Gang's wedding!" She mentioned hoping it would help her out.

"It's not my concern. It's also ours." Peng Lim took her to their bed chamber as he sat down on the bed.

"Lim, I have to get up early and help Liang dress tomorrow!" Peng Lim then undid her sash as her robe fell down.

"I already told her you won't be up early and she didn't mind." Su Rong was surprised as the curtains on the bed closed as the candles died out.

Morning rose, Xue Liang was still being held in the arms of her husband. She rose up about to leave the bed as her wrist was pulled back down. Liu Gang hugged her, looking up to see him. "Gang I have to get up and bathe!" She hissed at him as he smirked looking at her.

"I would punish you soon, but would you like me to help bathe you." She blushed. She pushed herself off him as he looked at her as she quickly went to the bathroom to bathe. Undressing herself as she got in the tub of water with orchid flowers floating in.

Washing herself, she was happy that she was now his wife but she wanted to become his. She was scared though that he could be put down by others. She scrubbed herself, and the door opened. Liu Gang came in as she saw him and got up covering herself. "Gang! What are you doing here!?"

"I'm going to bathe with my wife. I'm your husband so you are correct in calling me." He held her back as he undressed going in the tub with her. She blushed keeping her eyes closed, he hugged her from behind. "Wife, I still cannot let your sister go after what happened. She will try to plot something again."

"I know. Ever since we were both young, she always went against me just like Hai. I was from a lower birth so they always bullied me. My mother convinced my father to send me to the Taoist Temple. It was the only safest place for me, it has humans and felines. Most felines remained there because they've lost their loved ones." Xue Liang looked down sadly as she remembered all of them who told their lives to her.

Liu Gang held her as he kissed her head. "I won't let you be sad. I want you to be happy. I will protect your parents and brothers. They are like my own family but your sister I will not. She has intentions to harm you." They stayed in the tub of water as they soon got out as they had done nothing.
