A great change
Hillary POV
I woke up with a splitting headache. I yawned and stretched as I rolled over to the other part of the bed hitting someone hard. My hand roamed around the person’s bare chest until it landed on the person’s stomach. I squeezed it hard and began to chuckle thinking that I was still dreaming until a hand grabbed mine and my eyes fluttered open. I cleared my throat when my eyes met Loukas’s. He stared at me as if I had grown two heads while I visibly gulped.
“What are you doing right now?” He asked. “Didn’t you have enough yesternight? ”
I blinked as the memories of the previous night rushed into my head. After the dinner that was specially prepared by Rotimi, I lost count of the glasses of wine that I took. Loukas who was unable to drink just stared at me when I started singing. I sang and danced for him while he watched me with a seductive smile on his face.
It didn’t end there as I stood up from my seat and sat on his legs pushing away the plates and cups on the table. I kissed him so fast as if his lips would disappear at any second. The kiss was fast setting my heart racing and when I pulled away, we both panted for breath and inhaled deeply. “I like you! ” I had confessed to him and kissed him yet again. He just stared at me and captured my lips yet again and this time, it was slow and passionate making me see the stars and whatever was in the sky but I did the impossible after he pulled away from the kiss, I hugged him and muttered a few words that I couldn’t remember and that was all I could remember.
“I… ” I tried to say something to Loukas but he placed his hand on my lips.
“Don’t say anything, dear wife. I thought last night would be great but you just spoiled everything by fainting which I never expected from you anyways, ” Loukas clicked his tongue and tutted. ” My pretty wife was wild last night and if not that you slept off after a few wines then I would have taken you, ” The way he said it made my heart race and I couldn’t stop staring at the way his lips moved.
I realized that I might have done a lot of bad things the previous night but I enjoyed the wedding. It was the wedding any girl would dream of. It was the wedding of a lifetime and I didn’t regret getting married to Loukas because I had fallen hard for him and, to be honest, I didn’t regret anything that I did the previous night. “I hope I didn’t do any crazy thing. ” I asked biting my lower lips. I had to make sure that I didn’t do any irrational things like forcing him or begging him to sleep with me.
That would be weird because I wanted Loukas to reciprocate the feeling which I knew was never going to happen ever.
“You are asking me that? “Loukas chuckled giving me the wickedest smile.
I cleared my throat and tried to wriggle myself out of his hold but he didn’t let go. “What are you doing? “I asked him.
“Why are you shying away my dear wife. You were pretty wild last night, ” he chuckled.
I bite my lower lips and muttered a cuss word under my breath. Loukas was acting like we didn’t have a contract to keep. He acted like the both of us were not under an agreement. As much as I wanted to remain in his arms, I knew that I had to stand up from his bed.C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
Bed? My eyes widened when I thought of how Loukas had carried me to his bed. “How did I get here? ” I asked him.
“My bed or arms? ”
I rolled my eyes. ” Your bed.”
” I had a little help from one of the chefs, ” he answered.
” So now you let people enter your room or allow me to sleep on your bed? ” I was surprised and the shock was evident in my tone. Loukas wasn’t that type of person who would allow just anyone to enter his room let alone sleep in his room and on his bed.
“Do I seems like a devil to you? ” He asked.
“I don’t need to tell you that because you know,” I told him and he laughed heartily stroking my hair. ” Since this is our first morning together as a couple, why don’t you do a small therapy for me. ” He winked at me.
I wondered why he was acting as if the bond between us was real. I was glad that he hasn’t spoken about it yet and at the same time, I wondered what changed him. “You want me to do therapy for you this morning? ” I asked but he didn’t answer me.
I heaved a sigh realizing that he was never going to repeat himself. “yes, I need therapy dear wife.”
I nodded in response. “Fine. Can you let go of me now? ”
With that being said, Loukas let go of me and I climbed out of the bed and I realized that I had a change of clothes that didn’t even belong to me. “Who changed me? ” I asked him.
He smirked and stared at me. “I have no idea, ” he chuckled.
Folding my hands and tapping my legs on the ground, I beckoned for him to say something. “What do you mean? I need to know who changed me! ”
“It was me! ” Loukas finally answered after a few seconds of silence.
” What!” I yelled. How could he have changed me without my permission? “How come you didn’t tell me before changing me?” I inquired of him…
” Hillary, stop yelling!” Loukas yelled at me. “I didn’t undress you with my eyes open, and I had to change you because you were pretty tired. Do you realize how difficult it was for me to change you?” Loukas sighed and rubbed his temples.
In shame, I lowered my head. I was careless and didn’t consider him or how difficult it was for him to change me with his hand. “I… ” I took a breather and scratched the back of my neck. “I sincerely apologize, Loukas. I just never expected you to change me because what we have is a contract marriage. ”
Loukas chuckled and simply nodded. “It’s okay,” he said, but his tone was tinged with sadness. He just stared at me, saying nothing. He made me feel as if I had done something wrong, but that was not the case.
Our marriage was a forgery.
“I’m so sorry,” I apologized once more, and he nodded once more. “Let’s just start the muscle exercise before the real therapy,” I said as I knelt beside his bed and grabbed his right leg. I slowly lifted it, trying not to make eye contact with him, but his gaze was fixed on me. “This muscle exercise is extremely beneficial, and it…. ”
“I know,” he replied.
As I continued to raise his leg, my heart skipped a beat. I moved to his hand and slowly raised it after repeating the process several times. I couldn’t help but notice his face now that I was closer to him, and my chest brushed against his. I leaned in closer to raise his hand every time. “This… ” When his strong arms wrapped around my waist, I jumped in fright. “What are you up to?” I asked him, but he wouldn’t let go of my hand. My legs shook violently and I could barely stand as his touch caused my heart to race.
“I have something I’d like to show you,” he said as he let go of my waist.
I sighed, relieved that I didn’t act like an idiot in front of him and made him realize that his touch affected me. “What exactly do you want to show me?” I asked, and he placed his hand on the bed. I rose from my knelt position on the ground and sat beside him on the bed.
“You were right when you said I could move my right fingers, but last night I did the impossible,” he smiled at me, lifting his right hand in front of me. It was only three seconds, but it brought tears to my eyes. “I didn’t realize I could until it moved on its own accord when I was trying to change you,” he said with a smile.
” Oh my goodness!” I squealed and exclaimed. When I rushed to embrace him, I didn’t realize what I was doing. I was simply overjoyed that there had been such a significant change. “This is incredible, Loukas! Your brain is starting to respond to how you think, which is incredible “I let him go and sat on the bed. “This is beginning to make sense, and sooner or later, you’ll be able to lift your hands and legs!”
Loukas smiled and took my hand in his. ” I never imagined this would happen until you came along and showed me that I can be better!” Loukas said this while kissing my hand. ” You forced me to change my mindset, and I…” I didn’t let him finish before leaning in and kissing him.
Our lips competed for dominance as we expressed our emotions through the kiss. It started slowly but quickly became rough as Loukas deepened the kiss. We were lost in our world when the door to Loukas’ room slammed open.
“Oh my!” Rotimi exclaimed, and he slammed the door shut with a loud bang. Loukas and I backed away from each other, then burst out laughing when we realized what had happened.
When we heard a knock, I quickly stood up and went to the door. I smiled at Rotimi as I opened the door and motioned for him to come in. “Are you dressed?” He asked, his eyes closed.
In response, I shook my head and slapped him on the left arm. “Don’t be a fool. Neither of us is naked “Except for Loukas, who was flaunting his chest. “Loukas can now raise his right hand!” I said something to him, and he opened his eyes.
“Are you serious?” He yelled.
I didn’t mind that he had yelled because it was a great change for Loukas and us.
