My Lady Chef

Ely's POV:

"Love me?"

I looked up at my husband who turned so red that even his ears are tinged with a rosy color.

Whoa. So even he could blush like that?

"What I mean is....let me love you for the rest of our lives together." He stroked my cheek and his red eyes glimmered with emotion " I love you, Alaina."

"Oh...Oh!" I gaped at him. He actually confessed to me after we made up.

Talk about catching a girl off guard.

"These past months, all I can think about was you. You don't know how much joy it gave me when you decided to stay here." He kissed my hair and sighed. "It made me happy to see us working side by side. My knights adore you and the people of Guthrie know you by name. And then...there was your heroic act of assisting Oswald's unit in repelling the rebel attack. You...are an amazing woman."

I smiled as I pressed against his bulk, loving his warm embrace. My heart was pounding fast because my husband finally said the words I have been dying to hear.

"I-I am not misunderstanding this husband? This is different from just having your loyalty and fidelity?" I asked just to be sure, the old fear of misunderstanding rearing its ugly head.

His answer was to carry me to our bed where he laid me down gently and began to pull off his clothes.

I could not help but watch as my husband threw off his cloak and nearly tore his shirt and coat off.

His huge muscular body gleamed against the firelight, his body was powerful but not grossly overshaped as a bodybuilder's, his chest and shoulders were broad and swoon-worthy. His hips narrow and nestled between two well-formed legs were his stiff cock and balls.

Which was also pale and long like marble, the sides roped with bulging veins and a pink mushroom-shaped head, a pearly bead of his seed was visible on top.

Jesus, even his phallus is gorgeous

The raw beauty of his body was truly made to seduce a female. His silky black hair which has grown longer already brushed against his nape and his red eyes locked with mine, the desire and awe in its depths made me catch my breath as his full lips parted then curved into a smile.

He truly is one handsome devil.

It made me think of the numerous women throwing themselves at him every time.

Until I remembered that he fell for me first. I never thought that I would come to love him but then...

I got to know him and because I liked what I see, I fell hard.

By the time I tried not to love him, it was too late.

"What are you thinking about?" His voice snapped me out of my daydreams. My body jumped when I realized that he was already naked and towering over me.

"I....was thinking about how I felt the first time I found out that my definition of being your wife was different from yours. "I decided to tell him the truth. Because I was curious about what made him change his mind that day.

His hand stroked my back and pulled at the ribbons holding my dress close till he managed to helped me out of it. My corset and chemise were all that remained.

"I was a fool. Now I can't stop thinking about you." His breath warmed my skin as he kissed every slip of skin bared by my chemise as he took them off me. "You are all I want, Alaina." "Ez...Are you sure? Am I really enough? There may be other women more beautiful or gifted than me..." I said as he licked my throat and sucked on a spot that slightly tickles. "Ahh...."

"Remember the time when you got sick after our audience with the King? I never felt so helpless...so powerless as you lay in bed, gasping and burning with fever." He took my hands and kissed each finger gently." I had the power to kill my enemies but as the doctor told me to hope for the best, I have never wished for the power to heal so badly."

I was surprised at his confession. He had to leave after our night together so I had wondered what went on in his head that time.

He realized that he loves me that much?

"That was when I prayed to the Goddess. I did not want to lose you for some reason and I would do anything in exchange for you to recover." He kissed the pulse on my wrists and his eyes looked at me with intensity. " when my prayers were answered. It took time for me to realize that I fell in love with you."

"Ez.."

"And even now, I am still falling for you. Every single day, every single night."

"Oh....y-you are?" I felt like I swallowed butterflies from how fluttery I was feeling when he pressed against my belly as he laid me down gently.

I reached out to touch his chest and he shuddered as I felt his warmth. He pulled me closer to him, his lips kissing my brow.

"Yes. That is why I always feel the urge to snatch you away from any male that looks your way."

"What? No male has ever..." I stopped when I saw the look of disbelief on his face.

"Ever since you came. My senior knights have always mentioned you and how lucky I was to have snagged such an angel. Bel constantly barges into our married life looking for you and now you even caught this foreign prince's admiration. They all adore you. I don't like it." His tone was possessive and I could not help but cup his face and kiss him.

His reaction was a low groan and his tongue answered my bold move as mine slipped inside his hot mouth.

Kissing him has always felt so sweet and warm. Why is it even sweeter now?

I moaned as he took mine in and sucked at it before breaking off the tantalizing kiss and biting my lower lip.

After we broke off the kiss, He purred as I stroked his jaw while I panted softly to calm my beating heart.

"My sweet jealous husband. I don't love these men but I love you. There is no need to be envious because I am yours." I nuzzled his neck and I felt his rising enthusiasm branding my thigh.

At first, he was silent but then I saw the stunned look on his handsome face before his hands gripped my body tighter

"Say that again?" He asked, his voice was breathless as we looked at each other, our faces inches apart.

A felt my heart melt at the joy in his ruby gaze.

"I love you?"

"Again..." his hand slid against my cheek and I could not resist kissing his warm palm even as my lip felt the calluses on his fingers.

"I love you.."

"I love you as well..." he moaned as he lowered his head and lifted my upper back a bit which thrust my breasts out for him to tease both my stiff hard nipples with his tongue before sucking on both of my peaks slowly like he was savoring me.

My lower body just melted as his big hand moved down to stroke the curves of my ass and waist before spreading my legs and teasing my swollen crotch. A minute after I started grinding against his thick long fingers, he gently thrust one inside as my breath caught in my throat.

I shuddered as he pressed against that "spot" that just made me even wetter for him.000000
