TWICE MARRIED

Chapter2

A week later

Mia's POV

“ Mia, do you really want to get married? I mean, this is so sudden,” Natalie was worried sick about me getting married. She suspected that something was fishy but of course I wouldn't let her know.

“ Especially since you never told me that you had a boyfriend,” Nita twisted her lips. She didn't believe any nonsense I spewed to her.

“ You both shouldn't worry, we were both dating before but it was sort of a secret thing because of his identity,” I clenched the perfectly white wedding gown I was wearing and tried my best to hold my smile up as the make-up artist did her work. Deep down, I wanted to cry but that would have to wait until I wasn't around these two.

“ If there's something going on, you can always tell me,” Natalie had tears gathered in her eyes already. I waited for the make-up artist to finish up my makeup before getting up to look at Natalie who was at the verge of breaking down in tears.

“ Naty, I'm fine. I've told you that I love him and we've been having something going on for quite a while,” I held to hands in an attempt to convince her. I didn't exactly lie since the first part was indeed true and well, we did know each other but it's too bad in both cases it's one-sided.

“ Alright, as long as you're okay and happy,” she said in a low voice.

“ So I guess it's a congratulations?” Nita seemed hesitant to bid me farewell as well. We had gotten so accustomed to each other when we met at Uni.

“ Yes, I'll miss the both of you,” I didn't know when I started crying. I'm glad I went for a waterproof make-up.

“ Why are you crying?” Natalie seeing me cry began to cry as well.

“ It's because I'm happy but sad that I'm leaving you both,” I said hugging her and crying.

“ Don't talk like we're never going to see you again,” I knew Nita was fighting back the urge to cry and how I wish what she said was true but I knew this new Azek was cruel enough to make me cut contact with them.

“ Besides, I think you should save this tears for the wedding itself and your husband,” Nita added.

“ Yes,” I was very aware about my tears and how it would definitely be flowing in abundance the moment I and Azek exchange vows.

“ Let's stop all this crying,” I said letting go of Natalie who seemed rather hesitant to. “ How do I look?” I said doing a little swirl for formality sake.

“ The groom is bloody wealthy so anything he gets must be perfect,” Nita had entered her analytical stage. “ You look as beautiful as any bride could be on their wedding day and even prettier,” that was all the compliment I needed to hear. At least, I wasn't looking like the problems I was facing.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

With a bouquet of flower in my hands, I slowly walked down the aisle. Azek had decided to hold a small wedding with only family members present. What was I kidding? The only people present where his workers and my family and Nita. If I exclude the priest that is.

In the twinkling of an eye, we had exchanged rings and insincere vows. I always imagined us getting married but not in this manner. I wanted to be happy with him. Never once did I think I'd be so hesitant to marry him.

“ You may now kiss the bride,” the priest said. The part I dreaded most, yet anticipated came.

“ Why are you being so hesitant? This shouldn't be your first time, I bet your mother has given you more than enough experience,” he remarked. I had no idea what he was talking about.

“ Even if you shout out now, you're mine and there's no one that can save you from me,” he leaned forward and kissed me after lifting the veil from my face. Tears rolled down my cheeks steadily, it would be mistaken as tears of joy - I thought. I couldn't let Natalie know that anything was wrong, I needed to protect her.

“ I now proclaim you both, husband and wife,” the priest declared the moment Azek let go of my lips.

It was forty minutes drive from the chapel to his house. We sat besides each other quietly not bothering to look at each other. Well, I did - I often glanced over to look at him. I was still in a state of shock and could barely get my head wrapped around all this.

“ I'll send my driver to pick up your things later in the evening,” he spoke up for the first time to me today. “ I still don't see a reason why you'd need them, after all they aren't worth much,” he degraded. I clenched my wedding gown in my fists as I tried my best to suppress the tears and anger I was fighting so hard to control.

Getting into the neighborhood where he lived, I understood the reason for his pride. I always knew he was rich but never really quantified it. His mansion which seemed more like a chateau or palace stood in the middle of a large premises, the gardens were perfectly trimmed and everything about his house spelt wealth.

“ Sir, ma'am, we're here,” the driver of the limo we were in announced as parked within the courtyard. His butler opened the door for him to get down, he left without saying a word to me.

“ Sir, aren't you going to help her out?” The butler questioned. He had to be close to ask such a question given Azek’s temperament.

“ Her legs aren't broken, she can get down on her own. Even if they were, she might as well just crawl her way into the mansion,” he shrugged as he walked towards the mansion’s main door - his bodyguards following him.

“ Azek is a bit on the cold side so don't take it to heart,” his Butler gave me a reassuring smile.

“ I'm alright,” I lied as I beamed at him. He took me by the hand and helped me out. I walked hurriedly in attempt to catch up with Azek.

“ Welcome, young master!” There was a long line of maids and workers bent at an angle ninety as they greeted. I hadn't expected this at all.

” Get Ms. Mendez settled in. Help her get out of her dress and show her the appropriate room,” he dished out orders and everyone quickly went to work.

“ Sir, it's Mrs. Ford now technically, young master,” his butler chose to correct.

“ Mrs. Ford? I wish,” he scoffed. “ Only on paper that is. Besides, I can't be bothering myself with such minute details, Butler Harry,” he waved off as he walked upstairs.

“ Erm... Ms. Mendez come with us,” a group of maids approached me. I followed them willingly.

I felt so relieved after getting out of my wedding dress and taking a shower. It was evening already but I honestly wasn't hungry. Maybe it was because I hadn't adapted to the place or maybe it's because I know I'm not accepted here. I sat at the edge of the large four-post bed in deep thoughts. What exactly could I have done to make Azek hate me this much?

“ I heard you're not having dinner,” a voice from the door got me startled. I sprang to my feet once I realized that it was Azek.

“ Uhm... Yes, I'm not hungry,” I said, avoiding his eyes.

“ Good,” he said as he walked in, shutting the door behind him. He was wearing a robe - a sleeping robe which exposed his muscular chest making me gulp. I was nervous but yet my body had the luxury of enjoying the view.

“ A-Aren’t you going to have dinner?” I muttered, toying with my fingers.

“ I am and that's why I'm here,” he answered calmly as he stood in front of me now.

“ I don't get what you mean. Do you want anything specifically that you'd want me to prepare?”

“ The only preparation needed to take off your night gown,” he said taking off his robe slowly. What was going on?

“ What? W-what do you think you're doing?” I stuttered as he moved closer to me. His cold hand rested on my cheeks sending shivers down my spine.

“ I don't think I need to remind you that we just got married and this is our first night together,” he whispered into my ears, making me turn red. “ It's only right for us to rconsummate our marriage,” he licked my ear and I totally freaked out.

” I-I’m not sure I'm ready,” I blurted out without much thoughts. Besides, I thought he hated and detested me so why was it necessary to go through with this?

“ We will find out soon enough when you're moaning my name,” he said crashing his lips against mine, not giving my face the chance to get flushed. Initially I tried to resist and pull away from his kiss but he was a lot stronger than I had expected and my body began to yield to it's inner desires.

His tongue slipped into my mouth as he held on to my face tight, I could feel my pink n*****s stand erect as our tongues laced each other. My veins throbbed and my heart exploded. I had never wanted anyone like this before.

He pushes me backwards and we continue making out on the bed, pulling his lips from mine to catch his breath, he looked at me panting. He drops one of the thin, single sleeves holding my gown to my body - I could feel his weight as he lay on top of me. He had used his strong arms to support majority of his weight but still close enough for me to feel his length harden.

“ I promise to be gentle,” he whispered as his hands ran over my body. I didn't know when a moan escaped my lips as he plugged his lips to my n*****s.
