SPOILING HIS LITTLE BRIDE

CHAPTER 9

Selena kept staring at herself in the mirror; she didn't know whether this particular dress was appropriate for the occasion. It was Sean's birthday, he was another year older and she was still eighteen and a bit far from her own. She had been waiting for this day fir weeks and she was glad that the day had finally arrived.

'You look gorgeous baby, we should go downstairs. Our guests are already waiting,' Sean said as he wrapped his arms around her.

'Do you think so? Isn't it a bit too long?' she asked worried about the length.

'Its better this way, I wouldn't want to have a fight with someone gawking at your lovely legs because you are wearing something short,' Sean said and she laughed. How can he have such lewd thoughts for a grown up man like him?

'If you say so then I will go out like this. Who came for the party?' she asked as she turned around to face him.

'Just a few friends of mine and Vivian,' he replied.

'I hope I won't embarrass you,' she said as she wrapped her arms around his waist.

'You will never do that honey,' he said as he planted a kiss on her forehead.

'We should head out then,' she encouraged her husband; she didn't want the guests to think that they were deliberately avoiding them.

Sean held her hand and the two of them left the master bedroom for the banquet hall where the party was being held. The hall was fully packed with faces she had seen and never saw before. It was a good thing that an event planner had done this with so little of her help. She wasn't made for this but she was going to enjoy it as well.

She smiled and greeted all the guests that had came to her husband's birthday. She spotted Vivian who was busy talking to Victor and she walked gracefully towards her. She wouldn't act in the way she was used to, there were so many people in the hall and she had to maintain her reputation at all costs.

Selena hugged her friend and the two girls kissed each other's cheeks before giving each other that crazy stare.

'You look dashing and glowing,' Vivian said as she looked at her.

'Thank you and so do you,' Selena said back to her friend.

'There are so many older people here, if it wasn't for you I wouldn't have come,' Vivian complained and Selena laughed.

'There is nothing I can do about it, just wait for a little while and we will have time to ourselves,' Selena promised her friend.

'I will trust you this time,' Vivian said with a smile.

'You should after all who treats you better than I?' Selena said jokingly to her friend.

'There is no one else besides you friend. I think you have to go,' Vivian said looking at her back.

'Why?' Selena asked as she turned her head around.

Selena noticed that her husband was looking at her and he probably wanted her to be there.

'Juts go, I will be safe here,' Vivian said urging her to go to her husband.

'I will join you shortly,' Selena said and walked to her husband.

She smiled at Sean and his colleagues he was with at that moment.

'This is my beloved wife Selena and these are my colleague's babe,' Sean did the introductions and she smiled at the gentlemen she had not seen when she came in earlier.

'It's nice to meet you gentlemen,' she said as she greeted the two men who seemed to be close to her husband.

He seemed to be friends with everyone; he was a very popular person she realized.
