The Accidental Wife (Emily and Julian)

Chapter 116

After making sure that my suit looks good on me, I walk out of the bathroom, not wanting to keep Rosie waiting for long. I'm glad that she is enjoying her time. I know that she is not exactly fond of attending huge events, but I want her to get out of her shell. I want her to try new things.

We have already talked about that before when she told me that she wanted to become bolder. We agreed that I was going to take her to more events to make her used to being in huge crowds and if she ever felt uncomfortable, I would take her home immediately. It's not "Silas," a girl says, making me stop in my track and turn to face her.

"Izzy, it's good to see you," I politely say. Truth is, it's not good to see her at all. Izzy doesn't take no for an answer and I don't know how to make her understand that I'm not interested in dating her.

"I heard some rumors," she says, walking towards me. I want to walk away from her, but I'm also trying not to be rude. "Is it true that you're now dating some girl?" She closes the space between us and my back is pressed against the wall, so I don't know how to run away f "I'm dating and she has a name. Her name is Rosie," I tell her, attempting to keep her hands away from my body. Why can't she get that I'm not interested?

"Rosie? Is she from our circle? I don't think I know a Rosie who can be good enough for you." She dares to let her hand travel down my body, and it takes a lot of control from me to stop her from doing that without being aggressive.

"She is more than enough for me. In fact, she is way out of my league and I'm thankful that she is mine." I hope she now understands that Rosie is the only girl I want, but I think that she doesn't get the memo, because she refuses to keep her hand away from my body. "I bet he made it clear more than once that he's not single, and I'm assuming you're not deaf, so why the hell are you all over my boyfriend?" I look up and see Rosie in front of me, she looks outraged, and she has every right to be.

"I wasn't aware that he's serious," Izzy rolls her eyes as she looks at Rosie in a not-so-nice way.

"He is," my jealous girlfriend walks over to us, pushes Izzy away and presses her body against mine, "very serious." My girl places her hand on the back of my neck and gently pushes it down. I obey and lean down. Her lips meet mine and for a second, she catches me off the way she usually kisses me. Her kiss is usually sweet, and she shyly initiates the kiss, but this one is way different. It is daring. She's claiming her territory. She wants to make it clear that I belong to nobody else but her.

"I believe this shows you how series he is, right?" Rosie turns around, pressing her back against mine. I wrap my arm around her waist and watch the way Izzy's face falls. Rosie has made it clear that she's not going to go easy on anyone who comes near me. I like this sid "Right." Izzy's lips tighten into a straight line before walking away.

I turn my gorgeous girl to face me and kiss her like there's no tomorrow. I don't care that we're surrounded by many people. She is my girl and I'm proud to be hers. I want everyone to

know that my eyes see nobody else but her. I'm aware that people may be taking pictures of us, but what's so wrong about that? I'm simply a man who is kissing his girl. I'm a man who is madly in love and cannot wait till he tells his girl that.

"Jealous, baby girl?" I smirk as I place my hands on her waist, keeping her body glued to mine..

"Just making sure that everybody knows you're mine," she murmurs. "Don't I have the right to do that?"

"Oh Rosie, you've every single right to do that. Remind everyone every once in a while that I'm yours, Remind them in the

way you deem appropriate. I'm proudly yours," I tell her. The smile drawn on her lips weakens my knees and they threaten to buckle.

This girl has me wrapped around her fingers and I don't mind it. I want her to own my heart. I'm in love with her and I want to scream it on top of my lungs. I want the world to know that she is all that my eyes could ever see.

"How could she do that?! I'm sure you've told her that we're dating, so I can't grasp her actions," she furiously exclaims. I want to laugh at how adorable she looks.

"I promise I told her, cupcake, but she wouldn't budge." I caress her soft skin.

"I know, Silas! I blindly trust you, but I just don't understand the audacity of some people! You told her you're taken, so she should respect that!" I cup her chin between my fingers and lean down to kiss her soft lips. "Don't think about her, Rosie. Don't let her ruin our night, gorgeous." She nods. I snake my arm around her shoulders and kiss her temple as we make our way back to the table.

We're an hour away from the new year. I can't wait to spend the next year with her. I have a lot of plans for her. I want to make her the happiest girl. I want to take her to nice places and travel around the world with her. I want us to make unforgettable memories. I want to st "Hey, Silas." I look at her when she calls my name. "We're five minutes away from the new year. "Come with me." She intertwines our hands together and takes me to the terrace. "You said you're going to give me all the cheesy kisses I want, right?" "Yes, I'm going to give you every single kiss in the history of kisses," I tell her.

"I want our New Year's kiss to be under the stars! It's rare to find such a starry night in Winter, so this is a sign," she excitedly says. I look up and she's right. There are a lot of stars in the sky and the moon is bright.

"Your wish is my command, beautiful," I tell her. She looks flawless tonight. Absolutely flawless. I'm the luckiest man alive to call her mine.

When the clock ticks and the new year arrives, I pull her towards me and kiss her, giving her the kiss she wants. I can feel her smiling through the kiss and it's a delightful feeling. It's bewitching to know that she wants to kiss me too. I think I will never get used to this. "Happy New Year, Rosie."

"Happy New Year, Silas. I can't wait to spend my new year with you." I swear, in this moment, I feel like I own the entire world.
