Enchanted Love

How stupid she is to get caught like this? Clara just wanted some big earthquake and she should hide herself beneath the planet. She twisted her toes in effect of his stares. How shameless he is staring at her?

“Fine. I was bathing. Can you turn around if you are done checking me out?” Clara yelled at him as her face turned redder with his teasing stares.

“Who told you that I am done looking at you?” Alex asked as he pulled her by her waist.

“Alex, leave me. I have to change my clothes” Clara is dying every second with embarrassment. But he is not helping with it.

“I have vowed in our marriage that I will help you in everything. So why not start with changing your clothes?” He asked shamelessly while she widened her eyes. He and his flirts, damn her heart which is not getting used to it but still craves for it.

“I don’t want to break your legs in the very beginning days of our marriage” Clara replied, still looking at the floor not able to see his eyes. He should leave her for god’s sake.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“Of course you can break my legs, hips, everything. But I will show you how” he  whispered near her red ears as she just wished for some magic to let her stay invisible for at least some seconds. This guy is just insane.

“Alex, leave me” She uttered as he leaned to smell the lavender flavour.

“Of course once I am satisfied checking you out” He replied as he started teasing her without doing anything but just letting his breath touch her cheeks.

Clara pushed him with force as she just couldn’t handle the amount of weird feelings she was getting because of him. She grabbed her long gown as he chuckled at her reactions.

“Fine. I have great news to share with you. Come quickly” Alex replied as he released her from his clutches. Clara zoomed inside swiftly to change her dress. Slapping her forehead, she finally dressed up neatly.

“I was damn wrong about everything” Alex mumbled as Clara entered their room. She was taken back by his tone. He seemed to be angry. What happened all of a sudden?

“Is everything alright?” She asked softly, nearing him.

“I am sorry” he apologised as he sat over the bed.

“For what?” She asked quickly as she doesn’t know what he is apologising for.

“I told you before that you look beautiful in white. Then corrected that you are divine in all colours. But now I realise that it’s not about dresses. You are just cute even in a bathrobe” Clara gaped at his words as her jaw dropped to the ground. How can he be serious about anything? She felt so stupid to even ask for reasons for his anger mode. She shouldn’t have asked him. He smiled naughtily at her flushed face.

“Can you just give some leisure time for me from your flirts?” She asked annoyingly.

“Not in this birth” he replied casually winking at her.

“Leave those. Why did you call me excitedly in the first place?” She asked seriously while his eyes again twinkled like anything. His smile is contagious which made her smile too. He looked like an innocent kid who just got a bar of chocolate.

“My lucky charm” he cupped her cheeks as he kissed her forehead suddenly.

“We were waiting for that Tech project. We finally got it” Alex exclaimed as he pulled her for a hug. He was very excited and happy that he got a project at last. He already has decided to take his dad’s business. However, he wanted to bring this project and would work on it before leaving his small company which he built with his friends.

“After finishing this project, I will join dad’s office. He has worked hard. Now I want him to rest and enjoy the time with his wife.”  Alex felt content. Clara snuggled more, expressing her happiness in his success.

“Congratulations, Alex,” she mumbled. Alex grabbed her suddenly, making her flinch.

“How can you do this sin?” He asked, gasping loudly.

“We are married for a week and till now you have not kept any nickname for me?” He pouted like a little kid as she rolled her eyes at him.

“What about puppy?” She asked pulling his cheeks as he got annoyed with the name he was given.

“If I am a puppy, should I show you how puppies behave whenever they meet their owner?” He asked, raising his eyebrows. Clara knew better about how his mind works in every matter. He licked his lips as he walked slowly towards her to show his puppy love for her as her lips stretched to a smile.

“I am sorry. Leave me” she screamed when he pulled her for a puppy kiss making her tremble in his arms.

“How about hottie?” He asked as she widened her eyes.

“Maybe se*y?” He asked, giving his charming smile.

“I will call you Alex.” She cut him off as she glared at him. However she gets comfortable with him, she can never use such words with him.

“So I got a promotion at home too?” He asked with shining eyes.

“But no gift for promotion?” Before he could pout for it, Clara pulled him and locked his lips with her startling him. She took time to kiss him gently, giving him little space in her life. Alex smiled in the kiss, cherishing her move. He didn’t expect this move from her side. He is happy that he could make her comfortable and open up her feelings for him.

He cupped her cheeks and looked at her to get permission from her side as she bowed down, giving him access to her heart, soul and everything. He gently removed the trances from her face as he kissed her soft cheeks which already turned pink with his gaze.

The melody song on his mobile started playing as he twirled her around the room and lifted her instantly without wasting any time.

Clara didn’t know that she would surrender to him this easily. But she is not like those girls to give attitude or whatever it may be. She does everything instantly if she feels right. As for Alex, she knows that he is the right person for her and she loves him wholeheartedly. She would never regret her decision to love him or marry him.

“You both didn’t even have breakfast. It’s already 11 in the morning” Elena said, annoyed with them. She doesn’t like it if anyone skips their food for anything.

“Alex, you were excited to tell us something. I was waiting but you didn’t come?” Frank voiced out with a hint of naughtiness in his voice. He could already see the flushed face of Clara and Alex and could say why they were late for breakfast.

“I got a project” Alex replied calmly as Jenny jumped in excitement and hugged her son.

“Don’t hug him, Jenny. He didn’t tell us. He is just informing us. He became an outsider for us” Frank exclaimed with fake tears as Jenny rolled her eyes at their drama which would start anytime.

“I can’t wait anymore now” Frank started when Alex and Clara finished their breakfast silently.

“For?” Everyone asked in unison.

“Honeymoon!” Frank replied casually as Clara coughed with wide eyes.

“Sorry, dad. I have so much work now as I have got the project. So I think we have to wait for a little while.” Alex smiled at Clara’s reaction. She admired how freely Frank and Alex talked with each other about everything. She loved to be a part of this family.

“Oh come on. I am not talking about you” Frank replied instantly with a frown making all gasps at him.

“It’s for me and Jenny” Frank lowered his head as if he was too shy to voice out. Alex took a folk spoon in his hand as he glared at his dad wide-eyed.

“As you are married, why don’t you guys move out and start your beautiful life?” Frank asked seriously as he forwards a small box that was designed in red velvet. Clara opened the box and found a key inside with a big key chain. It surely caught her attention.

“What do you mean?” Alex asked, suddenly seeing the keys. He thought his dad is just pulling his legs but it seems like moving in another direction

“Your new flat. My gift for you” Frank replied and winked at his son.

“I mean, you can even have your breakfast by evening and no one will question you,” Frank added with a hint of teasing as Clara went red in embarrassment.
