Wife?
His wife?
The words kept echoing in her head in his smooth and deep voice.
Was this all real? She asked herself.
How could this be real? She never wanted to get involved in any kind of romantic relationship, she had rejected him time and time and believed that she didn't like him.
Then why was her heart pounding faster and faster after hearing what he said? Why?
When Donovan saw how flustered she had become, the corner of his eyes creased and a beautiful smile formed on his lips.
He walked ahead and bent down in front of Silja and extended his hand, " Milady," he asked for her hand.
Silja looked at him for a second before she put her small hand in his larger one. Donovan smiled even brightly and then slowly planted a butterfly kiss at the back of her palm.
Only then did the whole crowd come to their senses.
