Chapter 279: Doing more to you
Marianne pov contd..
"I was just wondering where all the food went." Then he looked at my stomach and then back at me.
I coughed and sit straight again,
"You sure did not look like you can eat this much" he added with a chuckle and I glared at him.
"It was because you were hungry for two days. I did not eat much. You were the one who finished most of the food ``I restored and he chuckled and nodded.
"Yes, yes, I did" There was humor on his face and I pursed my lips.
"So, are you ready to go? I have asked others around from where we can get the carriage." he said as he collected the plates.
It was the first time we have been taking our dishes to wash by ourselves.
"Give them to me, i will wash them.'' I said, as it was too much beneath his respect that he would wash dishes. I could not even imagine him doing chores. The man who had not even taken water by himself all his life.
He looked at me and laughed, "how are you going to do that with one hand, my dear wife.
"My wife" these were the words that he used to refer to me these days. I would not lie when I heard Isabella speaking that Cassius was in the carriage waiting for them. I felt burning anger in my body. But now that I looked at him, I wanted to forget the past.
I had changed myself, he got changed. And it was a surprise that Killian loved me in the past too. So, I should be happy and let the bad memories go. Except one, that Isabella, she was still a threat to my happy family.
I had to get rid of it no matter what.
I heard him snapping his finger and I blinked.
"Hey, what happened? Where are you lost?" he asked and I shook my head.
"Nothing, let me clean the dishes now." I said moving and he shook his head.
"Did you forget that your hand is injured? Go and rest there, I will be done soon." he said strictly as he started cleaning the dishes.
I purse my lips and sat there looking at him. How easily he was able to do this, if i did not know any better i would have thought that he had done that in the past many times.
"So, would you like to take a bath before going or you can go like this too?" he asked, still continuing to do his chores.
"Umm, I was thinking if we could go and meet the oracle once again?" i asked and his hands halted, he turned to me and looked at with frown, his face was darkened
As if the sweet and kind Cassius was the figment of my imagination.
"You still wanted to go there, why?" he asked in a harder tone, "as much as i enjoyed what happened last night, i want to do it with love and pleasure when you are in all your senses and we are doing it because we want to do it, not because of passing heat."
My cheeks burned as he continued discussing last night. As if it was nothing big. I tightened my legs as I remembered how I moaned last night when he touched me there.
The night was still clear in my eyes and I doubt that I would ever be able to forget it.
"I am done. Come let's bid farewell and look for a carriage." said cassius as he adjusted all the dishes in a large container and wiped his hands with a cloth.
"But we would not get another chance to come here, do you not want to know how the oracle knew about Elizabeth. What if what she was saying was true?" I tried to convince and he looked at me with a complicated gaze.
"So you trust more to a witch who tried to kill you than to your husband?" His words hurt and I shook my head.
"Maybe there is more to it which even if you did not know Cassius, try to be more objective. There is much more hidden which we are not aware of. I have no way to explain to you for now. So all I can ask is for your trust.`` I said pleadingly. And he closed his eyes and sighed.
"You could have died last night. Your breathing was stopped and your pulse had almost fallen" he repeated in a tone telling there was no way to argue.
"Fine, then you go and ask the questions. I will just stand at a distance. But please, I beg you, let's go and meet her once more.`` I held his hand in both of my hands and was pleased.
He closed his eyes and pinched the space between his forehead.
"The more freedom I am giving you, the more stubborn you are, Marianne '' I smiled and hugged him as he related.
I only realised what I had done when his hands tightened on my waist. I tried to break free but he did not let me.
"There, there, are you trying to leave the moment you have gained benefit?" he said as his hand started roaming in my back.
"Cassius"
"Marianne, how was the night for you? Did you like what i did to you." he asked me, and i opened my eyes wide.
'How could he ask such a type of question. Was he not embarrassed at all!!?'
"Tell me, Marianne, do you want me to do that again to you. Or do you want me to do much more for you?" he asked as his lips moved closer and kissed my neck, gently and then he bit me, sucked it, licked it.
His hands moving on my back playing with the threads of the dress and my grip on his neck tightened my eyes closed as I started feeling his calloused tongue creating different sensations over my skin.
