Lonely Bride by Shikha A (best large ebook reader TXT) 📕

SEAN POV

When I saw her standing at the door looking stunning, my breath stuck to my lungs looking at her alluring face.

How come I got so lucky to have such beauty in my life? I thought about looking at her from top to bottom.

We left the house for the First Date of my life.

Yes, I have been with a few girls in my past but I never took them on a date. I was too busy to make my career and going on a date comes in as my last priority. Moreover, I have never found anyone worthy enough to take me on a date.

I was driving the car, for the first time, it was difficult for me to keep my eyes on the road.

I just want to look at her beautiful innocent face and admire her for eternity.

I don’t know when she has become my everything. I don’t know when she will become my reason to live.

Whenever I look back and think about the past I feel how wrong I was.

Our marriage was indeed forced but I have never seen any other girl since I got married to her. 

Yeah call me old school but I wanted to be one woman, man after my marriage.

I won’t say I am a saint, once upon a time I was Casanova.

But the moment I married her I changed my lifestyle. 

That was one of the reasons I was not happy with this marriage.

I have seen how my parents love each other to the core and I wanted the same when I get married.

And somewhere I wasn't sure we would ever reach that extent.

Let’s not lie, my parents did force me for this marriage. My mother even threatened me, if I don’t get married to her she won’t see my face again.

I know my mom is a big drama queen but I also know they will never force me to get into any wrong relationship, however, I did not want to get married to a kid.

Yes, 18 years is legal to get married but it does not make you an adult and I could see in one meeting only this girl was a way to be innocent for this cruel world.

However, when one day her granny called me to meet, I was surprised and kind of annoyed. I did not want to meet her when I already said no to this alliance. However, due all respect to our family relation, I went to meet her.

Her revelation made me speechless and I had a sudden feeling of protecting this girl.

After coming back home I told mom dad I am ready for this marriage. I can't let anything happen to her. 

I want to protect her, I want to cherish her.

However, I did not want to take any advantage of her till she was at the right age.

When I saw her for the second time in church on our wedding day my breath got hitched looking at her smooth skin and flawless beauty.

She was the epitome of god’s angel.

But again she was an innocent kid.

When the priest asked me to kiss my bride I could see the nervousness on her face and her body. So I controlled my desire and avoided kissing her but that made me irritated and annoyed. I wanted to touch her, I wanted to kiss those panels once.

Once we reached home, I was completely out of my mind. My struggle of listening to my heart or my mind was a trauma I went through.

I controlled all my desire but ended up lashing out at her little out of frustration which I still regret.

But then again I had to work according to my plan so I arranged everything she needed in the basement. I made sure she had each necessary downstairs but I never thought she would think I don’t want to see her in the house.

She never visited upstairs till she lived there.

That's the most painful thing for me.

I wanted her around me all the time even though I wanted her around her all the time but again I did not want to snatch her innocence. I knew if I stayed around her I wouldn't be able to control my inner beast.

I started noticing her day-to-day activity. I never leave any chance to get a glimpse of her.

Every day she used to sit at the same place with her cup of coffee and I used to sit in my bedroom looking at her beautiful face.

I even shifted my study to the upper floor of my bedroom to get a direct view of her while I was working.

I never wanted to miss that view. I started going to the office in the afternoon and finished my work from home till she sat there.

I give the duty to Anna, one of my oldest staff and most trusted person to take care of her.

I used to get her well-being from her every day without fail.

She thinks I know nothing about her but well here she is wrong. I am Sean Hudson, when I want to know something or someone nothing can stop me.

I knew about her studies. I knew how intelligent she was. I have given her a black card so she doesn't have to think before spending but she never used that. I knew where she used to get the money for her general necessities. I knew money was never a problem for her. She was independent at a very early age however I never wanted her to worry about anything.

Being the wife of Sean Hudson is not easy to live. Her life was always in danger and I knew this. Though our wedding was a family affair, it was not a secret. The media had given good coverage and got details about her as well.

But I made sure they never got hold of her. A whole team works for her security.

She had 8 people around her all the time whether at her college, office, or home.

When her Granny passed away I was out of the country at that moment. I tried to come back as soon as possible but could not fly back due to bad weather and by then I came. She was gone already leaving behind a note and a gift.
