Amelie’s POVWe all made our way to the dining room. I could see that Tiff was kind of hiding from Samuel. So I grabbed her and told the others to go on ahead without us.“Are you ok?” I asked.“It’s just a little awkward,” Tiff replied. “Samuel makes my heart race when I see him, but I still need time.”“I understand,” I said.Nathan came out of the dining room and headed towards us.“Is everything ok?” he questioned.“Tiff is just feeling a little awkward with Samuel,” I stated.“Ah, I see,” Nathan responded. “I thought that might be the reason. I made sure he’s not sitting across from Tiff.”“Really?” I smiled.“Yes, really,” Nathan grinned.I moved towards Nathan and hugged him.“You’re so considerate, my schmoopie,” I squeezed him tight.“Well, the more considerate I am, the more hugs I get,” Nathan teased.“Oh, so that’s how it is. All a ploy to get me to smush you,” I said, raising my eyebrow. “I’m on to you, mister.”“Oh no, I’ve been discovered,” Nathan chuckled.“I’m onto yo
Amelie’s POVOf course, Vivian needs to make herself the center of attention by any means.“No worries,” Carrington stated. “I’ll get someone to clean that up. We'd better have dinner before Zander passes out.”I giggled.Soup, salad, and main entrée were served. I noticed the chicken selection was my mother’s Cordon Bleu recipe and smiled. I mouthed thank you to Carrington, and he smiled.“Carrington, you must get your chef to give me the Cordon Bleu recipe,” Vivian spoke. “It is simply divine.” Vivian took another bite and moaned.“Actually, Amelie can give you the recipe,” Carrington advised. “It’s her mother’s recipe.”Vivian started choking.“Mother, are you ok?” Nathan asked.Vivian took a swig of her water. “Yes, just a little too much seasoning on that bite.”“Your mom must have been an amazing cook,” Dutton stated.“She was,” Zander replied. “I don’t remember much about her, but I do remember the family dinners. Mom put so much love into her cooking.”“That’s a special memory
Amelie’s POVBeep beep beep….ugh, stupid alarm clock. Five more minutes. I didn’t sleep that well. The bed at Carrington’s mansion was comfortable enough, but the lack of Nathan’s arms around me was very noticeable.Suddenly, my eyes open in shock at the realization that today is the wedding.I’m as nervous as hell. In four hours, I will become Mrs. Amelie Michaels, but the thing that makes me more nervous is the fact that I’ve already decided to tell Nathan that I’m in love with him when we get back to the Honeymoon suite. I don’t know how he’s going to react, but I need to do it. I can’t hold back the truth anymore. I’m in love with Dr. Nathaniel Carrington Michaels. I hope the feeling is reciprocated, although it doesn’t matter either way. I can’t live 3 years of my life pining in secret.I talked to Dr. Yvonne about expressing my emotions at our last session. I didn’t tell her it was a contract marriage, however. I told her that I had a hard time telling Nathan my emotions. She ha
Amelie’s POVJust as I was going to leave the dining room, Carrington walked in.“Amelie, my beautiful granddaughter-to-be!” Carrington said as he walked towards me and embraced me in a hug.“Carrington,” I hugged him back. “Thank you for everything that you are doing for us today.”“Amelie, you and Nathaniel are my family. You remind me so much of my beloved Jo-Jo. You are literally the best thing that has ever happened to Nathaniel.”“He is the best thing that has ever happened to me, Carrington,” I replied.Carrington leaned into my ear, “I know you love him, Amelie.”I pulled back and nodded.“Tell him, Amelie,” Carrington exclaimed.“I am tonight,” I advised and smiled.“Good,” Carrington grinned. “Now, you and all your gorgeous ladies need to start getting ready. Your style team, photographer, and Desiree are all waiting for you. One of the spare rooms on the main floor, just beside the grand staircase, had been decorated and set up for you to get ready for the wedding.”“Thank
Amelie’s POVMy style team, along with a few extra stylists, is working on everyone’s hair and makeup right now. The photographer has been snapping pictures of everything, and the champagne is flowing. I have nursed on a single glass for the past two hours. I want to be able to remember every single detail of this day. Every moment. I want to remember walking down the aisle towards Nathan. I’m fairly certain I’m going to start crying at some point. My vows, which I have chosen, tell Nathan exactly how I feel. Whether he believes that or not, I’m expressing them. At least it will be a good show for everyone in attendance.Carrington made everything perfect for us in the room. We all have matching robes and slippers that have our roles embroidered on them. He also has necklaces and earrings laid out for my ladies.The photographer advised me she had the wedding dress and bridesmaid dresses out in the flower conservatory for pictures this morning. She stated there was so much security sh
Amelie’s POV“Amelie!” Tiff declared. “You almost gave me a heart attack.”“Mon Ami,” Simone breathed out. “I was ready to claw her eyes out.”“Me too!” Philipe uttered.“Sorry, everyone,” I stated. “I needed all of your reactions to be realistic.”Sergio spoke, “Bella, we must hurry. Time to get the real masterpiece on you.”Morgan was already behind me, unlacing and unclasping like a woman possessed.I held my arm over my bare chest as they dropped the prototype to the floor, and I stepped out of it. Immediately, I stepped into the actual dress, and Morgan was clasping and lacing me back up.“Oh my gosh, Morgan, did you do something to the dress?” I smiled at her.“I might have done a bit of extra embroidery on the corset,” she said sheepishly, “and I did this.”Morgan pointed to the small train at the back.I gasped. Morgan had embroidered the A & N scrolled writing elegantly on the hem. Followed by today's date.“Oh, Morgan,” I cried.“Don’t hug me!” Morgan warned. “No one touches
Nathan’s POVThe music started up again, and I looked down the aisle, and the sight left me breathless. Amelie, on her brother’s arm, looked like an angel. My love. My everything. My goddess. I wanted to drop to my knees and worship her. She looked like she was on the verge of tears, but not sad tears, happy ones. Could she want this as much as I do? My eyes welled up with tears, and I gently wiped them. Amelie smiled at me, and a mile-wide grin broke out on my face.She slowly glided down the aisle as if she were walking on air. Time stood still as I willed it to speed up so I could touch her and taste her as we sealed our life together with a kiss.I quickly looked over at my mother, and she looked shocked. Like she wasn’t expecting Amelie to be walking down the aisle, I’d have to look into that later. I didn’t want to waste another second of my gaze on her.Amelie and Zander neared me, and I stepped forward to take her hand. The touch was electric. I could tell we both felt it.Zan
Nathan’s POVIt’s Official. Amelie is mine! I am so incredibly happy right now. It’s like one of those old-time movies. I want to shout it from the rooftops.Desiree signals the music, and we start down the aisle. “Wait?” Amelie whispers to me. “Is that, I do by ABBA?”“Yes,” I smirked.Just when I thought her smile couldn’t get any bigger, she took it up another notch.“Thank you, hubby,” Amelie grinned.“You’re welcome, wifey,” I said with a smile.We were barely out the door when Desiree accosted us and directed us over in front of the fireplace for the receiving line.The entire gang came and hugged us before everyone emerged from the grand room.“I’m thrilled that you two are married!” Kimmy shouted and hugged us both at the same time.“Stock Market, I guess I owe you a car,” Dante said, then looked at Amelie and winked.What was that for?“Thank you both of you for helping make our ceremony so special,” Amelie praised.“You’re welcome,” Kimmy replied. “Twerkley
Nathan’s POVWe barely had enough time to straighten ourselves before arriving at Grandfather’s front door. Luckily, Amelie had a brush and a clip to put her hair up because without, she had the just fucked look because I had gripped her hair so much. Of course, she stepped out of the limo, looking like a fucking goddess with her loose bun.Niles greeted us at the door and let us know that Grandfather and Zander were in the living room.“Ame!” Zander said, his eyes lighting up when he saw Amelie. “Merry Christmas.”Zander raced over to hug Amelie. I can imagine this is a totally different type of Christmas from what they had in the past. I want to make it extra special for Amelie and Zander.Grandfather stood up as we approached the seating area.“Amelie, Nathan, Merry Christmas, kids,” Grandfather grinned, leaning in for hugs.“Merry Christmas, Grandfather,” we both replied
Amelie’s POVI think I might not be able to walk by the time the honeymoon is over. Nathan is insatiable. Not that I’m complaining. He is an incredible lover. He always makes sure I’m taken care of before he finishes—such a true gentleman.After breakfast, we barely made it back to the room before we were stripping off our clothes again.“I’m sure Grandfather would understand us being a bit late,” Nathan laughed.Then, he proceeded to bend me over the bed and jackhammer me until I came so hard I saw stars and squirted all over the bed and carpet. I tried to wipe it up as much as I could.Nathan promised to leave a big tip with the apology note I wrote for the maid.“Amelie, you are so adorable. Only you would leave an apology note for that,” Nathan chuckled. “So fucking adorable.”We are now on our way in the limo to Grandfather’s mansion. Marcus is off today, so
Nathan’s POV“I love you, too, Nathan,” Amelie said breathlessly.“I’ll be right back,” I advised. “I’m going to go grab a condom.”“No,” Amelie replied.“No? I questioned.“I’m on the pill,” Amelie stated. “I have been since I was 14 years old to regulate my period.”“I can still wear a condom, though,” I said.“I don’t want you to,” Amelie expressed. “I want to feel you fully.”I smiled at her. “Amelie, you don’t understand what this means to me. You willing to give yourself fully to me means everything to me.”“I’m yours, Nathan,” Amelie said, reaching up to caress my cheek.I started kissing her again and ran my hands over her body.I reached between her legs just to make sure she was still wet enough. She was dripping wet for
Nathan’s POVIt’s Christmas morning, and I've received the best present I’ve ever had in my life. Amelie woke me up this morning wearing nothing but a big red bow tied around her chest and a G-string. Needless to say, I did some unwrapping and stuffed her stocking. Now, I’m currently taking a bubble bath with my wife sitting in front of me in the tub.“Are you sore?” I asked her.“Not too bad,” Amelie answered. “Just a little tender, mostly.”“I kind of took it easy on you last night since it was your first time,” I said. Amelie turned around and looked at me, and I smirked.“Oh really?” Amelie questioned. “Pray tell, what does not going easy look like?”“Patience, my little kitten,” I said with a grin. “You have the rest of your life to find that out.”Amelie let out the cutest little squeak.“I like th
Amelie’s POVIt feels like I’m dreaming. Nathan loves me. I’m on cloud nine.We are standing at the end of the bed kissing. It sounds strange, but the kisses feel different. They feel more powerful, full of emotion and passion.Nathan ran his hands down my sides and turned me around so my back was facing him. He slowly started unclasping my corset. I would be lying if I didn’t admit that I was nervous. He made quick work of the corset and dropped it to the floor. Then he hooked his fingers under the sides of my lace thong and pulled them down my legs.I stand, my back exposed to him. He lingered kisses down my back as I shivered with excitement. He stepped back.“Turn around, Amelie,” He purred. “I want to devour you with my eyes.”I turned around slowly. My body was on display for him.His gaze was fixated on me, and he licked his lips.“Perfection, my love,” He said. “I’ve waited so long for this. My body has ached for you.”He picked me up, moved to the side of the bed, and gently
Nathan’s POVAt the same time and with the same words, we spoke.“I need to tell you something.”We both look at each other. How weird is it to say the exact same thing at the exact same time?“Ladies first, Amelie,” I said.“Are you sure?” Amelie asked.“Yes, please. What do you have to tell me?”“Nathan, I’ve been trying to find the words to tell you something for weeks. “ I finally found the words, but then I lacked the courage,” Amelie said, turning to me. “Now I think I have both. I need to say it, regardless of the outcome, because I can no longer live with this secret. I can’t keep it secret for the next three years. I can’t let it consume my heart.”Amelie looked down at the ground and wrung her hands together. Her head bowed like a scared little kitten.“Amelie,” I said, lifting her chin and gazing into her eyes. “You know you can tell me anything, right?”“I know,” Amelie spoke. “It’s just hard to put into words.”I reach for a stray piece of hair on her face and tuck it beh
Nathan’s POVAfter the garter and bouquet toss, I excused myself to head to the washroom. Fuck. I swear, as I gripped the garter with my teeth, I could smell Amelie’s arousal through her lace panties. It drove me fucking primal. I have never wanted a woman as much as I want her. I’m praying she feels the same way when I tell her tonight.I came back to the reception and found my mother talking to Samuel. He looked really uncomfortable, so I started walking towards him, but before I could intervene, Tiff swooped in.“Sweetie,” Tiff said, grabbing Samuel’s arm. “Can we dance now?”Samuel looked at Tiff and smiled. “Vivian, do you mind if I leave you so I can dance with my girlfriend?”“Girlfriend?” My mother asked.“Yes, Tiff is my girlfriend,” Samuel grinned.“Oh, go ahead, you two,” Mother responded.Tiff dragged Samuel off to the dance floor.“Mother,” I stated as I walked up to her. “Are you having a good time?”“Yes, Nathaniel. It’s a lovely wedding,” she expressed.I glanced over
Nathan’s POVOf course, Zander had to be infatuated with the daughter of a Mafia Don. The only saving grace was that Isabella would be leaving for boarding school in England after the New Year. Now, however, is not the time to think about that. I want to concentrate on Amelie.“Oh my gosh!” Amelie exclaimed. “The cake is amazing!”Patricia was standing there and smiled widely at Amelie’s comment.“I’m so glad you like it, Amelie,” Patricia acknowledged.Amelie, of course, had to hug Patricia.“What layer is the chocolate?” I asked.“It’s the middle tier,” Patricia responded. “I thought that would be the tier you would want to cut since it’s your mom’s recipe.”“Oh, Patricia, that’s so incredibly thoughtful of you,” Amelie expressed.“Now the big question is, smush or no smush?” I laughed.“Well, I would say no smush for Amelie. We don’t want to get any on her dress,” Patricia said. “Maybe a little smush for you, Nathan. Then Amelie can kiss it off?”“That works for me,” Amelie giggled
Amelie’s POVI couldn’t believe Carrington had done that for me. My dream of giving back to the community was coming true.I returned to my seat, and I was literally shaking from emotion. Nathan knew just what to do. He hugged me tight.“I know this is overwhelming,” he said. “Just center yourself and let the emotions out.”Nathan always knew what to say to make me feel better. I clung to him, and he held me as if he would never let me go.“Feeling a bit more level?” Nathan asked.“Yes, thank you. It’s just so much,” I replied.“I know. Grandfather can be over the top sometimes,” Nathan stated.“Oh, really? I know a certain someone who seemed to pick up that Michaels trait as well,” I giggled.“Guilty as charged,” Nathan chuckled. “Are you ready to make a brief statement to our guests as a couple? I’ll do all the talking if you’d like.”“Yes, my hubby,” I advised.“Ok, my wifey,” Nathan responded.We walked up to the podium.“Hi, Everyone, my wife,” Nathan paused and smiled at me, “an
