Forced Marriage: Escaping Her Monster

Chapter 386 - Future Plans

Chapter 386 - Future Plans

"Escaping?" Jerlina wrapped her arms around his neck and cocked her eyebrows. "You are the one escaping…into dreamland," she rested her forehead on his forehead and kissed the tip of his nose.

"Who escaped to dreamland? I was just closing my eyes…" his hand went to her back to search for the zipper. His breath was warm and his hands were restless.

"Joel," she nibbled on his earlobe. He most probably will never find the zipper searching there. "Carry me to our room."

"Can't you walk?" he looked at her face and blinked his eyes seeing the zipper in the side.

Why are there side zippers in dresses? They are annoying.

"I've never been carried in my life," Jerlina lied with no shame. "And if you move around, you will freshen up a little."

Jeremy looked at her with a sardonic expression. "Really? You've never been carried by anyone? How many times have I carried you? Liar!" Jeremy chuckled and stood up carrying her.

She always says this and every time he would remember how he had longed for the day he could touch the tip of her fingers. Of course, he would love to carry her.

"I am carrying you only because you are carrying my daughter," he said kissing her cheek.

He knew she would pout and start a fight with him. And then he wanted to kiss her silly and douse her anger. But she said nothing and stared at the distance.

"I am going to be so jealous of our baby…" she said and leaned closer and kissed him.

Jeremy wanted to ask why she said what she said but he got too immersed in the kiss and his hands traveled to unzip her dress and he entered their room and locked the door.

He let her down and her dress slipped down. Their kiss continued and she ended up on the bed. He paused and looked into her eyes. They only had one small light on and there wasn't much brightness, but her eyes always hold that mesmerizing quality that would make him melt.

"Jeryl, I am very thankful," he kissed her.

Although he is not being the best husband there is saying stupid stuff and attracts trouble all around, she is standing by his side. She makes sure that his home is somewhere he can be at peace. She does everything to make him happy.

Jerlina closed her eyes and let him kiss her all over. Her fingers gripped her pillow as his kisses trailed down her neck to her chest. His lips were warm and wet and the places his lips left started to get hotter. The tips of his hair followed behind his lips making her ticklish.

She could sense that he is happy. Very much happy. And that's all she needed. She gripped the hair in the back of his head as his kisses lingered on her lower abdomen.

"Grow well, baby…"

She heard him mumble as he placed a kiss and her lips curved to a smile. He is a good man. He should be happy. She would do her best to make him feel at least a fraction of the happiness he gives her. She could never give back the joy he brings her. That's an unattainable goal. But she would try her best.

Because only when he is happy, she would be happy too.

Her chest curved as his trained tongue teased her womanhood making her lust rise.

Just a little more… Ah, yes!

The room filled with her pleased moan. He always knows how to make her peak without her saying anything.

"I am the luckiest one," she kissed him as he got closer to her face. She saw the pride in his eyes and the smirk.

He liked to brag each time he would make her go crazy. Maybe he would get bored of it and stop doing it in the future, or he wouldn't… She would miss it if he stops bragging though.

This man… her man! She loved that arrogance in his face.

"I won't go very deep," he said and she nodded. She trusts him, but she doesn't trust herself. She placed her hand on her lower abdomen as she held his cheek with her other hand.

The most important people in her life – these two…

Jeremy fixed her hair sticking on her forehead and lied on his side. He loved lying on top of her after he finishes but maybe he should skip on it for some time.

"I love you," Jerlina turned to her side and kissed his lips. She was very happy and with a smile, she kissed him again and again.

"Want to go another round?" he asked with a grunt.

"No," she giggled and rolled away from him. She cannot go for another round.

"Come here," he pulled her into his embrace. He has no plans of doing it again. It is already late. She should rest.

Jerlina leaned on his arm and played with his chest hair as he gently stroked her hair. He could see that she is growing her hair. It is longer than her shoulder blade now. His finger trailed down and ended up on the small of her back.

"Why would you be jealous of our baby?" he asked as he suddenly remembered it.

"Jealous of our baby?" she raised her eyebrows and looked at him shocked. She didn't think she said it to him.

Or did I?

"Do you think I would love our child more than I love you?" he asked. His wife is a rational one and for her to say that… he was surprised.

"Well…" Jerlina kissed his chest. "I would be jealous because he would have the best father when I never had a-" she didn't finish her sentence because she felt silly for thinking this way.

Jeremy was more surprised. "You think that I would be that good a father?"

"Duh!" Jerlina looked at him. There wasn't an ounce of doubt about that.

Jeremy was touched and he pulled her closer and kissed her lips. "I will try my best."

"Hmm…" she rested on his chest and listened to his heartbeat.

"When everything here is settled… We never had an engagement and pre-wedding photo shoot, Joel… That place in Hungary, the one I inherited from my great-grandmother… Shall we visit there..? Late spring, summer… I think it would be perfect…Or maybe in the fall for our baby photo shoot… I think I would start showing by then..." she asked him with hesitation.

Jeremy rubbed her back. "We can go whenever you want to and do whatever you want to do," he said. She doesn't have to ask him in this begging tone.

"Really?" Jerlina was delighted. "I thought it would be very pretty if I wear one of those flowy gowns and run around in the hallways of the castle at sunset… What do you think? And for one of the themes, you can dress as a Regency gentleman with the top hat and all, like Mr. Darcy. I'll wear a Victorian style or vintage style dress…"

Jerlina kept on talking and Jeremy listened to her. His lips curved to a smile.

Who is Mr. Darcy? And look how excited she is!

So she really wants this… She's already made the plans… Well, posing for photographs is a little annoying, but we should do it. I always welcome more photographs to my collection.

And he was happy that she is looking forward for their future, talking about starting to show and all. He was worried that if she is still hung up on her past miscarriage, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

Maybe because she learned that it was forced..? Well, who cares? She is happy.

He was surprised by the ginormous amount of plans she had and she fell asleep while talking. He covered her properly and hugging her, he fell asleep with her.

There is a little more stuff he needs to settle. After that, they can live in that place as long as she wants to.. That place does look quiet and serene.
