Chapter 34
Irene’s POV:
I was slowly melting into the kiss as our lips melded so well together, his hands grazed my butt before moving up from grabbing my waist firmly. The rush of thrills was getting to my head as moans escaped my voice box and seeped into the kiss. It was becoming sweeter and causing tingles to dance around my lower abdomen, kick–starting my core to moisten up.
“Is this what you wanted?” He asked without his lips detaching from mine and instead of replying, I moaned a yes into the kiss.
And it was as if my reply was all he needed because he immediately stopped kissing me and went back to sit down, grabbing the magazine and raising it up to his face.
What the hell? What the heck was that?
“What are you doing?” I couldn’t help but question his weird action. What was his motive or intention behind pulling my legs in such a way?
“Are you seriously asking me that, Irene?” He angrily dropped the magazine on the table before him, staring at me with a questioning expression.
“Yes,” I answered firmly.
“Do look like an emotionless robot to you?” He asked and his question threw me out of words.
“What do you mean by that?” I asked, still annoyed and frustrated.
past.
And you
“You’re hilarious.” He chuckled, and it sounded mocking. “Okay, I understand that I hurt you so much in the also know how sorry I’ve been and how much I want to make it up to you. But what I didn’t know was that you are only interested in payback. You want revenge and, you have started enacting it on me, which is fair. But what I don’t expect is, the fact that you think you can keep pulling me in and pushing me away at your disposal. I have emotions too and I get hurt when I realize that I’m only someone you want to toy with and mess with my head.” He explained and I was left with an agape mouth.
Never have I thought about enacting revenge. Never have I, thought of toying or messing with him.
I’m unstable, that I know. My instability was always where he had me. The weakness I have is him.
Does he even realize the effect he has on me? Does he even know the internal turmoil I go through because of him? Does he realize that regardless of the past hurt, I still crave him as my lungs crave for oxygen every blessed second of the day?
He was so wrong.
“Damien, this is hard for me. But I have no ill intentions towards you. Never have and never will. I have definitely changed from that woman you knew ages ago but I still don’t know how to harbor hate in my heart for someone. So where would I even get the thought of enacting revenge? It’s just been so hard for me to willingly accept you back into my life. I am not toying with you.” I replied to him, hoping he would see through my words and see that they are sincere.
“But you clearly told me you don’t fucking want me, so what do you want with me now? I’d like for things to be clear just as you mentioned before.” He replied and I sat back on my seat, looking at him as I tried to come up with a good reply in my head.
The goal is not to sound desperate.
“I want to try. I’m willing to.” I simply said, hoping he wouldn’t ask me to explain my reply.
“You want to try a relationship with me?” He asked again, I could see the light dancing in his blue orbs.

“Yes, Damien. I was hoping this honeymoon could make me see if this is what I want or not. But just when you kissed me moments ago, my heart skipped a beat and I knew that I couldn’t continue to resist this obvious attraction between us. So I want to see if things will play out well for us.” I explained and a smile took over his face. He was happy.
My reply made him smile.
“You really mean all you have said?” He asked and I nodded.
“I don’t want to pressure you into something you don’t want. Our past history will always glare at us until we’ve created enough memories to overshadow it.” He said to me and he reached across the small table between us and grabbed my hands into his.
They were warm.
“I’m not pressured. You are just enchantingly attractive that I’m very unable to resist. So this is something I want, no doubt.” I smiled back at him, enjoying how his large hands swallowed mine in his hold.

“I am enchantingly attractive. That’s the most amazing compliment I’ve received this year,” He said and pulled me to come to him.
I got on my feet and walked around the table getting to him, he pulled me to sit on his lap. A small giggle escaped my lips as he pecked me.
“So we are going to actually enjoy our honeymoon, right?” He asked as if the power was in my hands.
“We should definitely do that.” I smiled and he pecked my cheeks again before laying my head on his chest.
“We should remain like this for the meantime. I feel like if I let you go, I might wake up from this dream.” He rasped above my head as he patted my hair down. I could hear each thump of his heart, and I found it soothing.
“I don’t mind,” was all I said because I still needed a little time to come to terms with my decision to be plain and clear. I don’t want to regret my decision, and I hope nothing will happen that will make me regret it.
And I need to keep reminding myself that all of this was a trial phase. The result determines the longevity of this relationship. But for now, I’m going to make sure I have fun.
Also, if everything keeps going fine, then I’ll tell him who Charlie actually is to him.
