Chapter 234 Taking Wedding Photos
"I just gotta take good care of you. It's on me to make sure you're well-fed," Alexander said, dropping his voice to a smooth, velvety tone that made her knees go weak.
Victoria caught the double meaning in his words, especially with that flirting, hunger in his eyes. Her heart started racing.
She knew those eyes all too well. She tried to look away and get up, but his hand on her waist held her down firmly.
"Where do you think you're going?" Alexander asked, squinting slightly.
She gave a faint smile. "Bathroom."
Alexander chuckled, then leaned in to kiss her, gentle but oh-so-dominant.
A few moments later, worried she might be uncomfortable, he adjusted her so she was sitting face-to-face with him.
One hand on her waist, the other tangled in her hair, pressing against the back of her head.
Victoria seemed to be in control, but his hot, delicate kisses moved from her lips to her neck and collarbone, making her tilt her head back.
Her eyes got misty, and the desire inside her kept building. Soft gasps and moans slipped out.
Just when she was about to lose it, a bit of rationality kicked in. "Wait. I haven't showered yet."
Alexander pulled her close, his eyes burning with desire. He licked her earlobe, his voice hoarse and seductive. "Shower? Guess I haven't tried hard enough."
Before she could say anything, Alexander scooped her up and headed to the bathroom.
In the bathroom, she looked at the unmoving Alexander. "Aren't you going out?"
Victoria asked, dead serious.
Alexander's temple twitched. He was at his peak of desire, and she wanted him to leave? No way.
He said nothing, just stared at her with a wicked smile. "Nope, we're showering together."
Victoria was silent for a moment. She rolled her eyes, about to say, "Then I'll go out first, you shower."
But Alexander seemed to read her mind and cut her off. "No negotiations tonight. You need to make up for making me worry today."
As he spoke, he pressed her against the wall.
Victoria's mouth twitched. How could he say such things?
But it was her fault, and she had no grounds to argue.
The last bathroom experience was still fresh in her mind, and she really didn't want a repeat.
She tried to negotiate, "Can we make it up in a different way this time?"
Alexander flatly refused, "No."
His tall figure pressed closer, arms propped against the wall, trapping her.
No matter how strong she was, she crumbled in his gentle embrace.
Alexander pressed down, kissing Victoria.
He raised his hand and pressed a button nearby. Water sprayed out, steam filling the bathroom, creating a shy, romantic vibe.
Today was the day they were taking their wedding photos.
After getting ready, they headed out.
With a pro team on board, they didn't have to do much—just go with the flow.
They were shooting outside, and lucky for them, it was a sunny day.
The past few days had been chilly, and she was worried they might have to reschedule. But today, the temperature climbed, like even the universe was cutting her some slack.
All the stress from the past few days melted away with the sunshine.
Once they got to the spot, it was time to change.
This team had it all covered—clothes, makeup, photography, and anything necessary, all handled by pros.
While changing, Victoria noticed the dress fit her like a glove.
A staff member nearby smiled and said, "Mrs. Howard, all these outfits were custom-made by Mr. Howard, tailored just for you, and they're limited editions worldwide."
She glanced at the labels on the other outfits hanging nearby, and they were all from LY.
A warm feeling spread through her, and a joyful smile lit up her face. The staff and makeup artists nearby couldn't help but feel a bit envious. Victoria looked even more stunning in person than in photos.
The makeup artist even thought Victoria didn't need any makeup to look good on camera.
Alexander's outfit was pretty simple, and he didn't need any touch-ups, so he sat outside early, handling some stuff on his phone.
When a flash of white caught his eye, he put away his phone and looked up.
Victoria was in a purely white long dress, her curly hair pinned up, showing off her delicate collarbone and flawless shoulders. She was so beautiful he couldn't take his eyes off her. He didn't even want anyone else to photograph her.
Victoria noticed him staring without saying a word, frowning and looking worried. She thought she didn't look good.
"Do I not look good?" she asked.
Alexander stood up, holding her slender waist, pulling Victoria into his arms.
Victoria gasped, her hands pressing against his shoulders.
"You look so good I just want to hide you at home," Alexander's husky voice said.
Victoria glared at him, startled. She thought he didn't like it.
"We're outside now. Control yourself a bit," she said, annoyed.
Alexander's lips curled into a smile, his eyebrows slightly raised, "I can't when it comes to you."
She pushed him away and walked out. "Nonsense."
Alexander chuckled and followed closely behind.
The rest of the shoot went super smooth and fun.
She had to change into eight outfits, while he only needed to change three, all to match her looks.
The photographer said this was the most attractive and best-looking couple he had ever photographed. He even saved on post-processing costs, as no retouching was needed.
There was no need to find special angles; every shot was a perfect picture, unlike previous clients who had many demands and didn't have good looks themselves.
They wanted to appear beautiful, have long legs, and a slim waist, constantly asking for retouching.
The couple's interactions were very warm, and Alexander's affectionate gaze was very moving. The shooting scene was very harmonious, and it was clear they were very happy.
Everyone was so into the shoot, they didn't notice someone in the distance recording with a phone.
