After the incident in the kitchen we both went silent for a few seconds before we each went our way. I went to my room and spent the rest of the day taking care of myself, watching movies and eating junk. I slept off at around 12am. I woke up the next morning and behold on bed were pink roses, a box of chocolates, credit card and a note that said “ I am sorry Princess;get dressed and go shopping we are going on our honeymoon”
I was over the moon. This could be the beginning of a lifetime of bliss. Gabriel Feragoza is taking me on our honeymoon after six months. I hope he doesn't revert to his monster form anymore. I took a shower, got dressed in a simple sweatpants and sweatshirt and headed out. On my way out I was met with the butler and the maids. They smiled and for the first time ever they spoke to me.
“You are in a beautiful mood today ma'am” the butler had commented.
“Yes ma'am and you look beautiful too as usual I mean” said one of the maids.
They seemed really happy though. I replied to them in the affirmative, bade them goodbye and headed to my car. But to my greatest surprise I had another car waiting; it was Gabriel's car. A white Rolls Royce and with a driver waiting. I am most definitely getting the princess treatment now.
After my whole shopping spree and self pampering I arrived home feeling refreshed and ready for my honeymoon. Amidst my joy I heard a knock and Gabriel entered my room.
“Princess, I gave you my credit card, I expected you to max it out but you only used a quarter of the money. You are mine and everything that belongs to me is yours as well”. He came close to me and looked me in the eye and said “Je suis désolé de t'avoir blessé princesse”. Even though I didn't understand a lot of french I know he said he was sorry.
The next morning I woke up excited and full of life to go on our honeymoon. I had already packed my suitcase the night before and the butler came in and took it downstairs. I met Gabriel waiting for me at the bottom of the stairs with a smile. I was wearing a beautiful sky blue dress that stopped above my knee and revealed my back. I had on a white hat that said princess and white sandals to match. Gabriel on the other hand was dressed in black from head to toe.
I looked at him unsure of what I was feeling but I know it wasn't hatred.”you look absolutely stunning princess”. I smiled at him and replied “ you clean up really nicely yourself”. He held my hand and together we walked outside and drove to the airport. It was a private jet and to say I was impressed is an understatement. He held my hand all through the flight and when I was becoming uncomfortable he laid my head on his chest, kissed my forehead and with that I fell asleep.
I woke up from sleep still on Gabriel's lap only to see him working on his MacBook.
“You are up already princess? We arrived an hour ago but you were sleeping so beautifully I didn't want to wake you”.
I smiled at him and we alighted the jet.
As I stepped down I realized we were in Marrakech in Morocco. I was so excited. No that I had never been here, cos I travel for business meetings as well but I just really love Morocco. We took a G wagon and had another 30 minutes drive to a very quiet place far from the noise and people.
We arrived there and I had to hold my breath to take in the beauty yet simplicity before me. I was in front of a beautiful cabin. It had a driveway which was paved with pink roses and tulips. On the front porch were little clay pots hanging from wooden pillars each with different beautiful flowers then on the door was written “welcome Mr and Mrs Feragoza” which was carved with beautiful rose petals. Gabriel really out did himself.
We stepped into the cabin and were welcomed by two old ladies who Gabriel introduced as Martha and Simone. They were so lovely and polite and after exchanging pleasantries. They handed us the keys and left. I started to take in the interior of the cabin.
It was brown with touches of nude. There was a love seat in front of the massive fire place. I beautiful nude carpet in the middle of the sitting area,an ottoman that looked extremely beautiful and above were beautiful light bulbs shaped like stars and moons. Everything looked so beautiful.
I was in awe of the simplicity and beauty of the cabin.
While I was still staring at the wonder that is this cabin Gabriel came behind me and whispered “ wait till you see the bedroom” and for some reason I smiled I really genuine smile,a smile of contentment and joy. I turned to look at him while he held my hand and led me to the room. We stood in front of the room and and he showed me inside. I had laid down on the bed out of exhaustion when I realized that Gabriel was still in the room unpacking as well.
“Gabriel, are you staying in this room”?
“Yes princess, you are my wife,mine and mine alone and you will never be far away from me again and neither will I have anyone get close to you especially that Beckham guy”.
“Beckham is just my friend from college”
“ I hate it when other guys touch you and he almost did”
“This incident happened a few months back how do you even remember”
“ I remember everything about you princess”.
I stared at him for a little while longer before going to change into my pajamas and going to sleep due to exhaustion. I woke up the next morning to smell of fresh flowers, waffle and coffee. “ This is definitely going to be an amazing honeymoon”. I got up, brushed my teeth and headed out to were the smell of waffles were coming from. I entered into the kitchen and there stood my husband; Ah the sound of that brought a smile on my face “ my husband”!. He was standing shirtless displaying his brown skin tone. He only wore a pair of shorts and socks which separated his feet from his slides.
He turned around as soon as he noticed me and he smiled. A smile that reached his eyes. It was then it hit me. I AM IN LOVE WITH GABRIEL FERAGOZA.
“Good morning princess. Sleep well?” He said while offering me a plate of waffles topped with whipped cream,strawberries and blueberries cut in twos.
“How do you know that I love my blueberries like this?”
“I told you princess, I know everything about you have breakfast and get dressed we are going out”.
I quickly ate my breakfast with Gabriel and made small talks in-between and him staring at me. I was completely smitten by this arrogant man. I had breakfast,took a shower and put on a beautiful sun dress paired it with my sandals and I was ready for the day.
The first place Gabriel took me to was a beautiful museum. Museum of constellation. It had so many stars and the whole galaxy it was amazing. We spent time watching the stars, holding hands and being husband and wife. I loved this side of Gabriel he was sweet and calm. Next stop was the road side market where we purchased souvenirs for our house and went a little sightseeing. It was a little over midnight when we returned to the cabin after all the sightseeing and food and laughter. I really loved this side of Gabriel.
We arrived home and immediately went straight to bed. I woke up the next morning to Gabriel on the phone. He sounded tense. He was telling the person on the other side of the phone to give him some time. I approached him and he rushed to end the call. When I asked the matter he just said it was work stuff and that was it. We were served a traditional Moroccan dish for Breakfast and we spent the morning enjoying each others company. By noon it was burning hot and I decided to go for a swim in the pool behind the cabin.
I changed into an orange one piece bikini that exposed my belly button. I felt really sexy in it and then I took my towel and headed for the pool. I was enjoying the cool water until I came up for some air and realised that Gabriel was standing by the pool watching me. I immediately reached for my towel and tried to cover myself.
“You shouldn't try to hide from me princess. I already told you that you belong to me and that includes your heart, soul and of course your body”. He came into the pool, took my towel from me and kept it aside. Looked me in the eyes and gave me a loving kiss on the lips. “ You don't know what you do to me my princess”
I look at him completely taken aback by the kiss and feeling shy. But I wasn't complaining though. He laughed, very much aware of my emotions. He took my hands and we swam for a while before heading inside to prepare for dinner.
At dinner we were presented with an Italian dish and white wine. We had dinner in silence largely because Gabriel kept staring at me but this time, with hunger in his eyes. After dinner we decided to remain in the sitting area and just get to know each other while having fruit punch. It was wholesome. We spoke about a lot of things and then I asked him about his parents.
“My mother died when I was 15. I don't remember much about her but one thing I do remember is that she let me be a kid. She fought my father every time he brought about the topic of me taking over the family business. They had a beautiful marriage and mom used to always make dinner. Even though we had two maids and a butler she was just the perfect woman. Which is why I couldn't bring myself to sack the maids and neither could my dad”.
I think I saw a tear drop from Gabriel's eyes but I didn't want to interrupt him. So I let him continue. “ Dad on the other hand was a good man, he was very business oriented and barely had the time but he always spends Sundays with mom and I. He would help mom in the garden in the mornings, play with me in the afternoons and in the evenings we had family time. It was beautiful till he too passed when I was 21 and I had to be introduced to the family business by my uncle and other major shareholders” .
“ I am so sorry Gabriel. It has really been tough for you”. He looked at me, placed a hand on my cheek and said “Now I have you princess. Nothing can go wrong”. We spoke a little more, about my mom and how she also passed and my childhood.
After our discussion, I looked at him and said “ well now we know we have something in common” and Gabriel laughed and replied “of course we do”.
We walked up to the room, and while I prepared to take off my make up and wash my face, Gabriel changed into something more comfortable. I came out of the Rest room after feeling refreshed and changed into a black night dress which stopped mid thigh. It had a plunging neckline and an open back. I pulled on the outer layer but as soon as I climbed onto the bed, Gabriel looked at me and said “ you know I will be taking that off later tonight right” and with that he gave me a deep kiss and for the first time since I got married,we consummated our marriage and it was the best feeling ever.
I woke up the next day to Gabriel smiling down at me. He was looking at me with so much love in his eyes. It felt like we were in the relationship stage rather than marriage and I was loving it.
“Good morning my love”
“I thought I was your princess?” I said pouting.
“ Of course,but you are also my love”. I love this side of Gabriel a lot. He made me feel like a baby.
We spent the rest of the day at home enjoying each others company, cuddling and just being husband and wife. At night Gabriel came to me in the kitchen and told me to get dressed that we would be going to have dinner outside.
“Your dress is in the room. Your duty is to look nice as always”. He pecked me on the cheek and left the kitchen. I felt butterflies in my tummy. I went into the bedroom and in front of me was an emerald green dress. I put on the dress and noticed that it had a thigh high slit in front. Beautiful green stones covered the borders of the dress and it was strapless. On the bed were diamond jewelry and the jewelry had 5 different gem stones around it. I made my hair into a low ponytail, applied a little make up and then my red lipstick and I stepped out.
Gabriel was waiting for me in the sitting area and when he saw me, he looked at me with hunger and love. I approached him and he swallowed hard and began to stutter.
“You..you… I am sorry I am so speechless”. I let out a hearty laugh and he smiled.
“You look stunning princess”
“Thank you Gabriel”
“Gabriel? I think we should do something about that name right princess”
“What? I asked”
“ How about something fit for your handsome husband?” He said with a wink.
“ Arrogant much”. I said and we both laughed before stepping out of the cabin.
We drove for thirty minutes till we arrived our destination. It was the beach. As we walked towards the water I noticed a beautiful setup. A white cloth was laid on the floor, with rose petals, there were different foods laid on the floor there were back drops of roses and hibiscus flowers hanging from wooden pillars that had transparent glasses filled with fireflies that lit up the whole place.
“Ohh my God! Gabriel this is so beautiful but why did you make me dress up to the beach”
“I know how much you like to look your best no matter the occasion princess”
“Thank you so much babe. Thank you”
“Reine? You just called me babe”
“Yes, you don't like it?”
“I love it princess and I love you. I really love you”
I looked at him with joy and contentment and replied “ I love you too”.
With that he went on one knee and said
“ Reine, I know we started off as enemies but I have come to realise that I have fallen for you and I need you in my life. Take this as an official proposal. Let us get married again but this time with love in our hearts and a hope for a lifetime together”.
I was already in tears and I started to nod my head. He slipped in a beautiful diamond ring on my finger and gave me the best kiss ever. We spent the rest of the night eating and being in each others arms. We went back to the cabin and the rest of our honeymoon was filled with us watching movies, going sightseeing and lots of s*x.
That was the best two weeks of my life and I couldn't ask for more. On our way back home to Nice,in the jet I couldn't help but think that even though father didn't tell me his reason for getting me married to Gabriel I am glad I did because I could never do this thing called love with anyone else.
