Chapter 51. Feeling Nervous (+18)

As Sienna followed him entering the bedroom, her heart was beating anxiously. She was being careful with every step she took.
Her eyes looked around cautiously. There were a king-sized bed and its thick bedsheet, which looked comfy. And there were a wardrobe and table as well.
She glanced at the glass window, which was located oppositely on the right side of the bed. She could see a slight moonlight from the gap in between the half-closed curtain.
The moon shone a little light through this dark bedroom. Soon after, Daniel turned on the lamp in the room. He was taking off his black suit and threw it on the bed.
Sienna watched him well-warily when he threw the bag on the bed and he started to raise his long sleeves to his elbows. They had not spoken since leaving the foyer. She began to feel gawky and uneasy around him.
Sienna was still wearing her wedding dress. Then she carefully tried to take off her veil from her head. But the hairpins got stuck, she couldn’t take them off easily.
Soon, Daniel noticed her struggled. She sighed while still trying to get it off from her head.
He approached her and said, “Do you want me to help you, Baby?”
She glanced at him and smiled awkwardly. “Yes, please…”
Then he helped her to take that veil lace from her head carefully. He tried to be as gentle as he could, so he would not hurt her. It took only a few seconds for him to take away the veil.
She stared up at him, “Thank you.”
The crickets sound in the front yard was heard vaguely from the bedroom. It was quiet when there were only the two of them in the house.
He started smelling her hair. She shivered when she felt a mild swoosh from his warm breath touched her head.
“You still smell so nice…” he whispered.
“Maybe it’s the shampoo,” she quickly murmured. “I’ve been using the strong shampoo scent of a red rose.”
“Good choice, Baby,” he whispered, making her ear tickled.
When he grabbed her shoulders, she instinctively brushed his hands away from her. Then she glanced at him awkwardly and said, “I… I think it’s better we change our clothes now. I have been feeling itchy wearing this lace dress all day long.”
He chuckled. “Do you want to take a shower first?”
She slowly kept her distance from him and said, “Ugh, sure… okay.”
Then she quickly grabbed the bag to find her clothes. But when she realized what kind of clothes that the maid prepared for her stay in the resort, her eyes bulged out surprisingly. She almost got a heart attack as she sighed peevishly.
Daniel noticed her indifference. Then he asked, “Baby, is there something wrong?”
Sienna glanced at him and quickly shook her head. “Nothing… I’m fine.”
And then she took the clothes and ran into the bathroom. She was feeling so embarrassed. How could his maid in the mansion bring her with such an exposing piece of clothes?
Then once again, her eyes observed the sexy design of that black satin lingerie with lace.
This night would be her first honeymoon in her entire life. And she should be prepared herself for what would become.
She had been imagining the wild idea inside her head. She felt numb sometimes to think about what a couple would do on their first honeymoon. It had never crossed her mind that she would have that special day sooner than she had expected. She used to think that she probably got married after she finished college, but the reality said otherwise for her.
For a moment, she looked at her reflection in the mirror. Her heavy make-up still looked perfect. Since Daniel rushed her to visit the island, she forgot to bring her make-up remover and some of her girl stuff.
And then suddenly, the flash of her wild imaginary crossed her mind again. She got surprised by her wild mind. How could she suddenly remember the first kiss she had with him? And this night, she was probably about to do something wilder with him in the resort.
She was feeling so nervous. Her heart had been beating in such a chaotic rhythm since she entered this house with him. She couldn’t think clearly for a second.
She hurriedly looked around the bathroom. There were a pair of white bathrobes and a bundle of soap and shampoo that served on the sink table.
As her hand was about to reach out for the soap, she suddenly hesitated. Her restless mind suddenly gave her a stupid thought. She was worried if she cleaned her make-up, she would look too pale. And her husband would not find her too attractive.
She quickly turned on the sink as she let her mind wandered off.
“Shit… what should I do now?” She muttered to herself. “I’m so clueless and unprepared.”
But if she took too long in the bathroom, he would be suspicious of her. She had to think fast about her decision.
She glanced again at the black lingerie she put down on the table, and then she turned to see her beautiful reflection in the mirror.
Until finally, she was settled not to wash her face that night. She would not let her husband see her bare pale face. She thought she would feel ugly.
And it would be too weird if she slept in her wedding dress, so she had to change into the only clothes available, even it would make her a little bit uncomfortable later.
She had never worn a lingerie in her life. This was all too weird. This lingerie was not even her own in the first place. Daniel was probably bought it for her and ordered his maid to bring it in the bag for her.
She didn’t know if she should feel thankful about him buying her this lingerie or not. She already imagined how embarrassed she would be by wearing it in front of him.
Then she took off the hairpins and let her long wavy hair hanging loosely on the back.
Before she opened the door, she took a deep breath. She was so tensed the whole time. She didn’t know if she could make it through to face him.
But when she glanced again at the pair of white bathrobes on the sink table, she grinned.
“Gosh, I’m so stupid. I should have just worn this…” then she quickly took the bathrobe and covered her lingerie with it.
Afterward, she unlocked the door and opened it halfway. She hid behind the door as her eyes stole a glance to find him in the bedroom. He was standing still in front of the glass window. His eyes were staring at the night view out there.
“Da… Daniel…” she murmured shyly. “Do… do you want to use the bathroom too?”
Daniel glanced in her direction. He pinched his eyes bafflingly when seeing she hid herself at the doorsill. And then he slowly approached her.
His eyes were so intimidating. He didn’t blink at all when looking at her way. Her heart was beating faster each time he went closer to her.
She noticed he had fully unbuttoned his long sleeves white shirt. Her eyes kept stealing a glance at his naked board chest. He didn’t have hairs over there, but his chest had muscles that took her breath away.
Once he stood a meter away from her, then he said, “I’m fine.”
As they exchanged a quiet stare at each other, Sienna gulped down her saliva nervously.
Then he whispered, “Don’t you want to get out from there?”
She blinked gawkily as she crossed her arms tightly on her chest. “Oh, I’m… ugh…”
Even she had the white bathrobe covered her upper body to her knees, she still felt shy.
For a second, he leaned at the doorsill. His eyes slightly stole a glance at the bathrobe she wore. And then he suddenly chuckled, making her more nervous.
“What’s so funny?” She confronted him.
“I know what you’re trying to hide from me, Carmelia,” he teased her while staring observantly at her crossing arms.
“Nothing that I hide from you,” she tried to be confident in front of him.
He chuckled again. He found her innocent expression to be somewhat amusing.
Soon after, he dared her, “Then let me see your body.”
She held her breath. She didn’t expect him to be so upfront about it.
“Wh… what?” She talked stammering.
Slowly, he grabbed her arm and dragged her out from her hiding place. Even she was kind of terrified about what would he do next, she obediently followed his lead.
As they stood facing each other in front of the bed, then he whispered to her, “Relax, Baby. This will be our best night ever.”
She blinked fast as she closed her lips tightly.
“I promise you,” he whispered again. And then he began kissing her pink lips softly.
