Chapter 17:
Alexander was getting ready.. Wearing his mask, he looked through the mirror.. It's been more than three months and still he couldn't remove his mask and tell her the truth..
He is getting impatient with each passing day.. Alexander was never like this.. He is always has control over his patience and himself but after falling in love with Victoria, he is losing his patience in things with her..
Finally yesterday night they did something more than just a kiss.. Though it was not the whole of it but it progressed.. However, Alexander have witnessed her fear and unsurety the whole time..
And why not!? Who on earth would fall in love with this face!? If it's not her need for money, then she wouldn't have agreed to marry him at the first place..
He felt guilty over it.. He felt guilty for his lying.. Moreover, he is dying to get her love.. So, he decided to reveal his true identity in front of her.. Telling her who actually he is..
"My lord, are you sure you are going to do this?" Butler Celeste spoke while helping him wear his blazer.. "the main criminal is still outside.."
"Yes, uncle Celeste.. I am sure.. I know she will keep it secret.." He said with surety..
He picked up the box from the tray, butler Celeste was holding on and open it.. He opened it, revealing a pair of most exquisite looking rings..
He has made these rings specially for them.. They are a married couple but doesn't have any rings in hand.. Though Victoria never said anything, maybe she doesn't care.. But, he cares and he will give it after revealing his face.. He will confess how much he loves her..
Smiling, he again closed the box and kept it inside his pocket.. Ready for their first ever date..
..........
Exactly at 7 p.m. the car stopped in front of the gate.. Alexander stood beside the Car gate, waiting for his wife to appear..
Victoria on the other hand was very nervous as well as exited.. She has decided to confess her love tonight and she would do that in any cost!
Getting out of the mansion, her eyes fell on her husband.. If she cover his face, then he is definitely a good looking man, with that body of his.. Though she never have seen him without clothes but he is definitely very strong!
She walked up to him.. Hearing foot steps, Alexander turned to see and his breath hitched.. She's looking exquisitly beautiful.. Absolutely breathtaking!
She stopped in front of him shyly "hi" Victoria didn't know what to say more..
A smile crept on Alexander's sexy thin lips.. He hold her by waist and kissed on her forehead "You are looking so beautiful, wifey.." He whispered in her ear, making her heart pounding madly..
"Thank you.. You too lo..looking good" She spoke shyly..
"Am I?" Though he knows that he's definitely not looking good, still he couldn't stop asking her..
But, for Victoria he is beautiful and she didn't lie.. She actually felt him good looking and just spoke her mind off.. She nodded in answer, with a blush..
Alexander didn't say anything.. He pecked lightly on her cheeks and open the car door for her "thank you" She replied while getting inside..
In the car, nothing much happened.. Both were in their own tension and excitement.. Finally the car stopped after few minutes..
Chauffeur open the gate for Alexander and he hold it for his wife.. Victoria felt warm with his actions.. Holding his stretched hand she get out of the car..
He took her to the beautiful yacht.. It has been decorated with flowers and expensive royal lights.. Victoria was enchanted seeing this..
"Shall we?" Alexander asked her permission..
She nodded with a smile.. And he led her into the yacht.. It was more beautiful from inside.. Victoria noticed, after they went inside, the car left.. She was confused and asked "why the car left?"
"We are going to stay her over night, is that okay?" He said, feeling nervous inside.. What if she denied..
But Victoria didn't.. She smiled "okay.." Making Alexander releaved.. Realising something, she asked again "are we alone here?"
Alexander shook his head "there are waiters and guards here but far away.. Waiters will left after dinner.." He told her the truth..
"O" Victoria nodded.. She thought they were alone because there was no one around them..
"Are you hungry?" Alexander asked..
"Umm.. No.. I.." But before she could speak further, her tummy betrayed her with a growling sound.. Making her blush in embarrassment..
Alexander smiled "yes, we are.." He then helped her to seat and then sat himself opposite of her..
And out of nowhere two waiters appeared with the menu, taking her off guard..
Alexander gave her one "select what you want.."
Victoria looked over it.. It was three sets of dish and all were organised with her favourite foods.. She felt frustrated over it and flushed "umm.. All are my favourite, you chose one and I will go with it.." She pushed the menu to her husband..
Alexander then ordered and few minutes later the dishes appeared.. Alexander cut the food and placed it in front of her, making her hurt filled with warmness.. He has always been so considerate with her.. His actions were making her sure to confess her love..
Both couple started eating.. Victoria felt like she's eating heavenly foods.. Though after getting married she's been eating most delicious foods but tonight it felt more amazing, maybe because of the romantic weather and feelings..
After finished eating, waiters clean the place and suddenly music started from nowhere.. Victoria was startled at first but the music was so romantic and matched with the plot that it didn't take much time her to get drowned by it..
Alexander stood up and stopped in front of her.. He stretched his hands to her "will you dance with me, Mrs. King?"
Victoria blushed but she's exited too.. Nodding she hold his hand "yes".. Both couple started dancing with the rhythm of the music..
Victoria never did it before and she kept losing her pace.. But, Alexander was much calmer and patience.. He led her slowly and finally she successfully get her pace back..
Both were dancing looking at each other, drowned in the environment.. Alexander has finally decide to reveal about his truth but suddenly, Victoria spoke "I Love You".. Making him puzzled on the place..
