Chapter 42
LUTHER'S POV
The wedding was beautiful, and everything was peaceful,what made me happy was seeing my family.
After the wedding we were to return to our rooms in the hotel, but then-
"Hi-hi Luther" Violet said nervously holding a pillow
"What are you doing here?". Amanda suddenly appears with a bag
"What do you mean? She's staying with you". She throws the bag at me "Here's her things" she sighs looking at our stiff expressions "Look I was nervous my first night too, you just have to go with the flow,good night". She walks away.
I lead Violet to the bed, I put her bag at a corner, I sit next to her
"So.."I rub my knees nervously."How was the wedding?".
She smiles "Good, it was fun, I loved the cake".
I nod "I'm glad you had fun, I hope it didn't bring back any hurtful memories?".
"No, just missed my father".
"Everything is going to be fine okay?".
"Thank you Luther". We both sigh
"I'm going to sleep on the couch, you can take the bed".
"You really don't -".
"it's fine, the couch is long enough". It's three seaters a bit small of me but I can mange if I bend my knees.
"Are you sure? We can always share the bed you know?".
"No!" I exclaimed catching her by surprise, I clear my throat "I mean no, it's fine". I stand up from the bed and walked to the couch.
I look at it then I look at the bed, it's big enough for the two of us maybe I can just-I suddenly remember the kiss. No I shouldn't risk it.
I watch Violet as she carefully tuck herself in
Getting married is just the beginning of every, definitely this isn't going to be easy, Violet wants to get everything back from Jesse also uncover the truth on her father's murder. So far I know Andrew didn't do it, someone else was in the house that day, and it's Strange the security camera's and the workers were suddenly off that night, it means it was planned from start, No doubt Jesse is the main suspect, could he be the one that almost got Violet killed? Something doesn't quite add up.
JESSE'S POV
They kissed? I laugh, so she's really married,fuck that.
"Well, I guess you know what this means". Benita said taking her heels off
"Yea, this is war".
"You know, you really are sexy when you're worked up and angry".she said with a seductive tone slowly undressing herself
"I'm not in the mood Benita".
The smile on her face slowly fades "Why? Because your ex wife remarried?".
"Yes! Because it means I can loose everything if I make the slightest mistake".
"Bullshit! We both know that isn't the real reason Jesse, you just mad because you saw Violet get married, I mean that's the reason why you didn't want to go to the wedding in the first place".
I grunt "You know nothing"
She chuckles "I know nothing?, ever since Violet came back you've been acting werid, we don't even make love like we use to anymore, you're always saying is because of loosing the company and all that, you're always angry and lets not talk about the picture of Violet in your desk".
I clench my fist as I glare at her "You went to my study?". She doesn't say anything "What have I told you about touching my stuff?".
"Oh please". She was about walking away when I suddenly grab her
"Don't you ever go near my things again!"
She whines "You're squeezing my hands it hurts! ". I squeeze it more
"Never go near my things again" She painfully nods I let go of her hand
"You hurt me!" she exclaimed I roll my eyes at her and walk away "Jesse!"
I go to the living room, I see stella walking in with a bag, I wear a smirk
"You're back". She bows
"Yes sir".
"You've taken care of everything right?".
She nods "Yes I have".
"Good because I don't expect you take anymore days off".
"I understand".
"You can go now". She nods and walks away.
VIOLET'S POV
I wake up, it's funny how yesterday feels like a dream, I really can't believe I'm married again.
I stretch and my hands touch something I quickly withdraw, what was that?, I slowly stretch my hands towards the same direction, I feel someone
"Luther?". I move a little closer and yes it does smell like him, but what is he doing here? Didn't he say he was going to sleep on the couch.
He suddenly grabs my hand by surprise and I suddenly find myself in his embrace. I try moving away but he has a strong grip.
