Wedding Bells 2.“Where are we going?” I asked him.He kept on pressing his phone like i wasn't talking to him.“I want to know how I'm to dress , that's why I'm asking where we are going”. I added.“Dress simple, we aren't going on a formal outing”. He finally replied.I went upstairs to my room and decided to change into something simple like he said.I looked through my wardrobe and chose a pair of black pants and a loose fitted sky blue top. I packed my hair into a high ponytail and applied a little bit of lip gloss. I also wore a pair of slippers. When I was done, I looked at myself in the mirror and hoped I wasn't over dressed or under dressed for wherever we were going.I came downstairs to see that he was ready already but, he was still on his phone.“I'm ready”. I said, as I came downstairs.He looked at me carefully from head to toe.And I thought I saw a look of approval on his face but it was gone immediately it came as if it were never there. I was beginning to doubt if I
WEDDING BELLS 3.Ares. Immediately I was in their presence, their composure changed. They were all trying not to make any mistakes because of course they knew that it'll cost them their jobs. That's the way it's supposed to be. I thought to myself, smiling.“I wonder what's going on in that little head of yours”. I said to Winnifred.“Ohh me?, nothing. Nothing at all”. She replied, smiling at me.“Let's begin, shall we?” I asked referring to the events planner as I got comfortable on one of the chairs.It was then I realized that Catherine was here too. They brought out the wedding gown and gave it to Winnifred to go and test to see how it looks. She went with Catherine and two of the designers to one of the rooms downstairs to test it out.Few minutes later, they were all back.The gown looked beautiful on her to be honest but I'll definitely not tell her that. I loved the way it fitted her body, it br—“Woww Winnie, you look stunning”. I heard Judy say, interrupting my mental anal
THE WEDDINGAres. The day was finally here. The day I get married and finally claim my position as the CEO of Masters Global.Winnie.I suddenly woke up by 3:00 am feeling thirsty, so I went to the kitchen to get water to drink. On my way to my room, I noticed the light in Ares's study was still on and the door was half open meaning he was inside.“He's working on his wedding day?” I asked myself, surprised.“Who works on their wedding day?” I asked myself again.“Ohh that's true, today is also his birthday”. I said, suddenly remembering.I started going towards his study with hopes of wishing him a happy birthday.I got to his study and knocked twice then I entered afterwards.I found him busy on his laptop, so I cleared my throat to announce my presence. He didn't take his eyes off his laptop.“Happy birthday”. I said, to get his attention. That seemed to do the trick because he looked up from his laptop, but I really wasn't expecting what he did next.“Ok”. He replied, and continu
THE WEDDING 2.Winnie.“Would you please walk me down the aisle?” I asked Mrs Catherine as we got to the entrance of the hall.“Of course my child, you didn't need to ask”. She replied beaming with smiles.Mrs Catherine took my arm in hers as she walked me down the aisle.The hall was filled to the brim with guests as they all turned to look at me as I was making my walk down the aisle.Ares was looking hotter than usual in his expensive three piece tux. With those mesmerizing eyes of his that could get the ladies lost in them.As I got to the altar where the officiator and Ares were waiting for me, the pounding in my chest became louder.It was time to say the wedding vows.The officiator looked at Ares and said, “do you, Ares Masters, take her, Winnifred Hugh, to be your lawfully wedded wife, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, until death do you part?” “Yes, I do”. Ares responded with a smirk on his f
CHAPTER NINETEEN. A TRIP DOWN MEMORY LANE. Winnie. The rest of the program was going on smoothly until…“Let's have our newest couple come out to the dance floor”. I suddenly heard the MC say.I began praying silently that there was another couple that just got married whom he was referring to, and not Ares and I.I was a terrible dancer and I certainly couldn't imagine dancing in front of all these people.“I know you know nothing about dancing, so try not to disgrace yourself on the dance floor”. Ares whispered in my ears with his usual smirk on his face again as he stood up and extended his hand to me for a dance.I accepted it and he led me to the dance floor as a slow song began playing.He put his arms around my waist and my arms were around his shoulder as he pulled me closer to himself. We were really close that our noses were touching and any little move, our lips would make contact.We remained in that position moving to the rhythm of the song with our eyes locked on each
THE HONEYMOON.Ares. I got to my room after Winnie and I had left the reception venue. Everything went according to plan. Come to think of it, that wife of mine came to my study to wish me a happy birthday earlier today. Who does that? What's happy about a birthday? By the way, she looked good in that wedding gown of hers. I couldn't seem to take my eyes off her for some reason. Fuckk Ares, what's wrong with you? Why are you thinking about this girl again? She's not supposed to be part of the things you should be thinking about. Get that straight.Winnie.We were back at the mansion and it felt good to be home. Mrs Catherine and I were in the living room, talking and laughing when…“Get ready, we're leaving for our honeymoon later this evening”. We heard Ares say as he entered the mansion.“Pack light”. He added as he headed to his room.“Come, I'll help you”. Mrs Catherine said when Ares had left.I followed her to my room as we began to pack.“What type of clothes do people pack fo
A TRIP TO PARIS.Winnie. I was really surprised at Ares's response to that flight attendant. It really made me happy. It's good he put her in her place. What was she thinking, trying to flirt with someone's husband, my husband? She got what she deserved.The rest of the flight went on smoothly until another flight attendant came.She went directly to Ares, ignoring me like I wasn't there.“How can I help you sir?” She asked, looking at Ares while licking her lips in a seductive manner.Ares took one look at her with disgust all over his face then he continued what he was doing on his laptop.The lady looked hurt but she didn't let that stop her. She was about to touch Ares again just like the previous attendant when Ares suddenly said…“Don't let those things you call hands come anywhere close to me. I never called for your attention so, I don't know what you're doing here. Well, since you're here, why not become useful by using those hands of yours to get my wife something to drink”
AN UNEXPECTED KISS.Winnie. “He's such an ass”. I said to myself as I climbed the bed.He continued working on his laptop without still sparing me a glance.“What type of person works on their honeymoon”. I asked myself silently, still surprised at what had happened.Few hours later, I woke up to pack my clothes. Since I didn't use most of the clothes Mrs Catherine had packed, it was easier to pack my clothes back into the box I came with.I suddenly woke up in the wee hours of the morning to ease myself.After I was done, Ares was fast asleep already and I decided to use this period to stare at him.I wasn't going to lie, he is a very handsome looking man. He looked so innocent and calm in his sleep. If I didn't know better, I'd have thought he's actually a really calm person, but I knew he was the direct opposite of that.I was really tempted to run my hand through his hair and ruffle it but I held myself. I wanted to caress his face with my hand but I really didn't want to wake hi
