Chapter Fifty five
There is a knock on my door in the morning that wakes me up. The person on the other side of the door tries to open it and finds it locked, so they continue knocking on and on. My leg hurt and my head aches, thanks to Cyrus yesterday night. Cyrus. I don’t even want to think about him this morning. It’s a struggle getting to the locked door to open it since I am hoping on one leg. I open the door and come face to face with the face I did not want to see today and for a very long time. I try locking it but he puts his foot through and pushes inside making me loose my balance and step on my left foot, I scream and curse so hard. He picks me up and goes to set me on the bed immediately inspecting my leg.
“It’s swollen. I told you to put ice on it” he points out as he stands and leaves the room. He comes back with an ice bag and some water.
He puts my leg on his lap and ices it and then hands me pills with the water. I take them reluctantly still I am still mad at him but I need his help right now. I take the pill and lie on the pillows that he had sat earlier on my back and watch him, giving him my nasty eye
“i don’t think you’re going to thank me for looking after you anytime soon?” he says and smiles at me. That just makes me angrier
“What do you want Cyrus? I don’t want to talk to you” I say folding my hands to my chest, which is funny considering he has my leg on his lap
“But you would gladly take my help for free, wouldn’t you?”
“I didn’t ask you, you can leave”
“You’re cute when you’re angry. I never really got the chance to see you angry before because you were always trying to put on a show for me when I was around”
“You can leave any moment now”
“Relax for a bit, I know you’re mad right now and the pain isn’t helping matters so just let the medicine do its work”
“I am not listening to you. You don’t control me”
“Okay”
We are silent as the pain slowly starts easing and then Cyrus looks straight at me and says
“I had just arrived and went with some guys to the club. There was a deal going down and though they weren’t expecting me, my presence was a good call. After the meeting this chick who works there comes to serve us and the boys start talking about how she is stuck up and won’t give them any saying she doesn’t date mafia men and it sort of just happened and we made this bet that I could get to fuck her tonight. So I get a private room and request her as my server, one thing leads to another she is naked on top of me trying to open my shirt and then all of a sudden I just think of you”
“Oh please!” I stop him unimpressed with his lies
“And I wonder what I am doing here with a stripper on my lap while I could be at home with my beautiful innocent pure wife, doing to her things I have fantasized for years. So I push her away and come home to you, and I have to tell you the boys were not impressed with my reaction”
“Am I supposed to be feeling sorry for your buddies because you let them down?”
“No. what I want is to apologize, I didn’t mean to hurt your feelings and I am sorry. I need you to believe me when I say ever since I told you I wanted us to work there has never been anyone else. I have to admit when we got married I wasn’t serious about us or being with you in that way, so I might have messed around a bit, but that’s in the past and I promise you it will never happen again”
“And how do I believe you? How do I know you’re telling the truth, you have told so much lies…”
“I know but you need to trust me because if there is no trust between us, then what the hell am I even doing here?”
“Okay but you keep reminding me all the time that I am a married woman and I shouldn’t be acting some kind of way you disapprove. Maybe it’s time you also remembered that you’re a married man now, you can’t be acting like a loose cannon out there, it affects me too”
“I know Bella, and I am sorry. I promise to do better”
“Okay. I’ll take it” I answer with a smile
“Thank you.” He says kissing my leg. I giggle from that reaction and can’t stop myself from smiling like an idiot. I am an idiot
“Let me go get us something to eat” he says ten and carefully sets my leg on the bed with the ice pack and leaves the bedroom with a smirk
He gets me breakfast in bed again and then leaves for work leaving me with a giant smile on my face. Later my cousin valentine calls to check up on me and I tell her I am not doing okay today maybe tomorrow and she says she wants to come and see me but I shut that down for today and promise to host her another time. I like valentine and I know she is excited about finding a friend since she is a princess like me it’s hard to get real connections.
Cyrus comes back early in the evening and we have dinner together before we all go to sleep in our designated rooms. By the next day, Cyrus and I are back into our morning routine and we are getting back to how things used to be between us. Cyrus is always kissing me and touching me in appropriately in the house but he hasn’t tried anything with yet.
I think what I had before with Cyrus was just a crush because now I am falling so hard for him. I don’t know what I would do if he suddenly decided he doesn’t want me anymore, I would probably die and considering the kind of secret that I am keeping from him I think I should come out and tell him the truth soon and I will, I just haven’t found the right time yet. I should probably prepare him dinner and ask him to talk then tell him the truth. Yes, that is what I am going to do.
