My Wife is a Sassy Queen

Liliana had dried her hair in the bathroom before coming out. Her face was slightly red and she looked rather sexy in the nightgown as she walked while fixing her short hair into a bun. Although she was wearing a very conservative loose nightgown which made it impossible to know much, knowing that she was naked underneath it reminded him of some very vague but pleasing moments of their wedding night.

He shook off his thoughts as she stood by the bed unsure of what to do.

“Do you want me to go to the guest room?” He said after a fake cough.

“I want to, but I know I should not.” She replied with a pout and glare.

“Do you remember anything from our wedding night?” He asked, pulling her wrist and making her sit beside him.

“Not much. Just some vague things. I remember you were actually nice to me after I scolded you.” She laughed as her cheeks had a faint blush.

“I am sorry about that. I was trying to throw you out of the room but I don’t know what happened.”

He scratched his head as he continued, “I can vaguely remember that you were also drugged and you asked about confirmation on whether I was your husband again and again. And that I took your virginity.”

“It was my first time as well. I remember trying several things to find out what would make you feel better and coaxing you because you hit me and scolded me.”

Liliana did not know what to say. ‘Why did he bring that up? It’s scary.’

Jonathan also realized that the conversation was not appropriate, so he cleared his throat and drank some water.

“This is my first time sleeping with a woman in the same bed, sober.” He said in a low voice.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

“Mine too.” Liliana sighed as he leaned on the pillow, “Our romantic life is quite pathetic.”

“It’s equally pathetic, so it’s fine.” Jonathan consoled her as he pulled up the blanket and covered them both.

“That’s a good perspective to have.” She nodded and went inside the blanket.

Jonathan kissed her forehead and said, “Good night, wife!” and lay down beside her looking at the ceiling.

“Good night!” She murmured and closed her eyes.

After half an hour of lying in complete silence, they were both quite aware that they were both awake.

Jonathan sighed and pulled her in his arms and spooned her without saying anything.

Liliana was stunned but as she realized that he was only going to hug her and not do anything else, she relaxed and quickly fell asleep.

Little did she know that after her breathing had evened out, Jonathan opened his eyes and looked at her with a loving gaze unblinking for a while.

He slowly caressed her face without waking her up and continued to stare at her. He had almost missed her.

Jonathan was once again filled with remorse as he thought of all of her hardships and the heavy burden she had been bearing all this while.

He had loved her all his life but he had never done anything for her. He had fallen Lydia’s and Aprice’s trap and mistreated her.

Jonathan had always felt bad for himself knowing that he came from an unusual family where no one really cared about him, but he had never imagined that she had it worse. Having an uncaring father was much better than having a father like Lester was to her.

He wondered how life would have been if he had known the truth seven years ago. But he also realized that she was right to think it might not have worked. They were not ready then.

This time they were both ready and able to fight for their marriage, to fight for each other.

He shook off his thoughts, vowed to do right by her, and stole a quick kiss before falling asleep.
