Undefiled Queen

Merlyn’s POVCopyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

I was shocked at his sudden revelation.  Unable to mutter even a single word, I gasped wide eyed at him.  He glanced at me lovingly, with a slight smile over his face.  Laying a finger under my chin so that he can look into my eyes perfectly the other cupping my cheek pulling me closer to him, he spoke concerned ‘I cannot explain to you anything at this moment, why I want our marriage to take place immediately but I promise, I would give you the best life any woman can dream off.  I will make you the happiest woman on the earth.  Now my Flower, tell me do you trust me?  Will you agree to marry me within two days?  His eyes were pleading with me.  I never felt him so vulnerable in my whole one year of relationship with him.  Wondering about the reason behind his sudden maneuver of the most important decision in his life, I nodded to him with a modest smile and assured him that I trust him and am ready to marry him whenever he asks me.

Contented with my answer, his lips twitched into a wide smile, a smile for which any girl would swoon to die. He grabbed my lips, placing a heart warming kiss.  My hands automatically went to his soft black hair gripping tightly pulling myself more into the kiss.  After the passionate moment he dressed himself.  While getting ready, he glanced up at me and pointed a finger, he told me ‘Be ready tomorrow at 9 o’clock.  I will pick you up to the office.” Ash! Good heavens.  My dominating devil is back.

Next morning as per Stephen’s instruction, I got up and made myself presentable for the office.  He parked his car exactly in time in front of my house and guided me to the car.

His face was radiating happiness and he gave me the most enigmatic smile which I could ever dream off.  Clutching the steering, he sped off into the busy roads of Newyork making mesmerizing glances every now and then at me.

As soon as we arrived at the office, he pulled me into the cabin, had me comfortable on the couch and put forward an envelope in front of me.  I was clueless into what the letter was and looked at him questioningly.  He signaled me through his eyes to go through the contents and gave me a pen to sign it.  It was my resignation.  Then he hushed me in a very soft voice ‘Flower, now that you are going to be my bride, the wife of one of the top billionaires of this country, I do not want you to work as my accountant any more.  If you want to be financially independent of yourself, I would not stop you.  You can complete your M. B. A as it goes as per your dream and start off your own business.  I will support you financially as much as you require but” he paused for a while. “The only thing I want from you is” he held himself ‘resign from this job.”

I rose up from my seat and looked at his adoring eyes which were pleading.  I came over to his desk and sat on it.  I grabbed his face in my hands. He just bent a little so that I could reach him easily and I kissed him fully.  Then I took the pen and signed it.

He took his seat with a pleasing smile and pulled me into his lap.  He gave me a peck on my lips and nuzzled his face into my neck holding me tight in place.  I felt the tent forming between his legs.  Slowly he started kissing my neck and moving up to the back of the ear and his breaths became heavy.

I started feeling intoxicated relishing every sweet movement of his when there was a knock at the door.

I quickly got up from his lap and occupied a seat across.  Rita entered inside and said ‘Sir, Mrs Collomen wants to meet you.”  A playful smirk danced across his face for the reason I am still about to know.

Merlyn’s POV

Mrs Collomen entered the cabin and I greeted her.  She gave me a warm hug and spoke ‘Now that you are going to be a daughter-in-law of one of the wealthiest families in this country, shouldn’t we go shopping for the costliest marriage of the decade?”  Saying this she winked at me exuberantly and I smiled.

After hearing our sweet conversation, Stephen gave a hug to his mother and gestured to me to go along with her.  Just before I turned to leave, he said ‘wait” and placed a card in my hand.  I resisted saying I can buy the things I require with the money I earn but he insisted and put the card in my purse.  Having no place to argue, I turned around to leave the room.

‘Fashion Street’ it is! That is where the wealthiest people of Newyork go for shopping.  Stephen’s mother first took me to a jewelry store and bought me 5-6 varieties of costliest necklaces, later she took me to the cloth store where I bought my wedding dress, and a few pairs of footwear, inners and of course costly lingerie to seduce Stephen.

Stephen always loves my selection and would gawk like a hawk whenever I put on a new dress. After finishing all the shopping for my wedding we went to a good restaurant to have lunch.  After I finished everything I planned to meet my uncle to apprise him of the latest changes about my marriage.

I waved to my future mom-in-law and got down from the car in front of Breach Candy hospital and proceeded to my uncle’s room.

I knocked on the door and when I heard the voice ‘come in’ I entered inside.  My uncle was leaning to the head board and reading a book with his glasses on.  When I entered, he raised his head from the book and greeted me with a sweet smile.  I went and hugged him and enquired about his health.  He gave me an encouraging reply and enquired about myself.

I left a heavy sigh and told him about everything that happened in my life and my marriage with Stephen.

He was for few moments left puzzled but listened to me patiently and guided me to get married as per Stephen’s wish. I noticed a tinge of displeasure lacing his face.  When I was about to pop up my question he just covered it up with a smile saying everything was fine.

I didn’t know what it was, but I noticed my uncle was not completely happy with the decision of my marriage with Stephen probably because he couldn’t accompany me to the aisle.  But whatever it is I will definitely find out.

Brushing aside my thoughts, I moved to my house with buoyancy.  Day after tomorrow is my wedding with Stephen Collomen, the billionaire businessman and the most eligible bachelor of the country.

Tick tick 1 tick tick two, what’s going to happen next?

Why was Stephen suddenly so much in a hurry to marry Merlyn?

Was Merlyn going to know the truth very soon?
