Some people believe that only love can fix a broken life, could that be really true??
~~~~~~~~~~~
Draken kept staring at Emma through the rare view mirror while he was driving. The entire journey, she didn't say a single word to him. Like she was so deep on thought.
When they arrived home, the first thing she did was go to the cupboard and grab some snacks.
"Don't stop me! I really need this" she said after noticing Draken looking at her.
"My wife can do whatever she wants" Draken was more than happy, atleast she didn't opt for alcohol.
"How dare she! Doesn't she consider me a sister at all" she gave up the snacks and ended up hugging Draken. Crying.
"There there, don't cry too much, you'll fall sick" Draken embraced her tightly.
"Let me cry! Atleast you're here again to wipe my tears away" she spoke softly.
"And only me. Not even that cousin of yours is allowed to touch you like I do" Draken's voice hinted a bit of anger.
"Wait. Draken Hunt, are you jealous of my cousin?" Emma asked, staring up at him, still in his arms.
"Ofcourse I am. You way too close for comfort...and I don't like it" he explained his point of view, but Emma just laughed at him instead.
She understood all his cold actions towards her cousin were just because he was jealous.
"What's so funny??" He asked, clearly mad.
"You're so cute when you're jealous" she pinched his cheeks.
"Rest assured Mr Hunt, I won't let him close to me ever again... are you happy now?" She asked him teasingly.
"No..."
"Then what do you want?" She continued to ask.
"Only one thing .." he replied tightening his grip around her waist, with a sly smile... staring at her like she was some kind of food he wanted to eat up.
"You" he wasted no time claiming her lips and they shared another passionate kiss.
Emma jumped and wrapped her legs around his waist, and he carried her to their bedroom without breaking the kiss.
The moment they got to the bedroom, clothes were ripped off each other's body, straight to the bed.
"You promise when I wake up this time, you won't be gone..." Emma asked after she broke the kiss...Draken tailing kisses down her neck.
"I promise sweetheart, this time...I will not leave"
After that it was just the swift movement of their bodies, skin to skin, it was just them and their love, going endless rounds
...Emma moaning his name...and him enjoying every bit of it. He'd longed for it for so many days.
"I love you so much Emma"
"I love you more" they both whispered to each other, in each other's embrace. Emma resting her head in his broad bare chest...
while he wrapped his arms around her waist.
She slept in his arms again. That's the only place where she found her true peace, where she felt safe and secure...only with him.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
THE NEXT MORNING~~~~
Emma woke up groaning, the sunrays were hitting her face. She saw Draken still asleep, his view was just so attractive...she couldn't help but playfully trace his outline. He was so goodlooking even in his sleep.
He'd kept his promise not to leave...and that made her extremely happy.
"Keep staring at me like that, and we'll go more rounds again.... I'm still full of energy" he said, without even opening his eyes.
Emma wanted to run but he grabbed her waist and flipped her over, she was now under him, Draken holding her hands above her head.
"Draken..let go this isn't the time" Emma was shy, as if it was their first time.
"You couldn't keep your hands off me last night, and now you want me to let go?" Draken asked teasingly.
"Why do you have to use my actions against me" she pouted and it only made Draken want more.
He leaned in and kissed her again, he seriously wanted to do it again.
"Draken no, we have to go to work" she broke the kiss and held up his face in her palms.
"Fine, I'll let you go on one condition" he said.
"What is it?" She asked curious.
"Call me husband from now on" he said, smiling at her.
"Is that all husband? Can I go now?" She hoped right to it. She just knew how to put him in the right moods at the right time without even realizing it.
"Say it again"
"Husband" Emma heeded his words.
"One more time"
"Hubby, my husband" Emma replied before he kissed her softly.
Those words made him feel at ease, especially coming from her. He missed her,he missed her voice and everything about her.
"You're so emotional, do you know that?" Emma said, staring in his eyes. She could read him like a book and only she could do it.
"I can't help it when you're around...I lose it" he replied, sleeping beside her and sniffing her hair, biting her ear.
"No one knows me the way you do, no one sees me the way you do" he whispered.
She was the only one he showed his vulnerable side, the others just knew him being a cold and over bearing boss..and some victims as a torturer, or even a killer.
"You're everything to me Emma, I can't even think of a life without you" his emotions took over and he wanted to cry.
"Its okay, don't cry husband, I'll stay by your side as long as you want me to" Emma wiped his tears with her bear hands.
"Just hold me tight, and never let go" Emma herself put his arms back around her waist and she put her head on his chest again. She hated seeing him cry because of her, seeing him in pain.
Draken leaned in on her shoulder and buried his head in her neck. He felt better that way.
"Do you feel any better now?" She asked, running her fingers through his messy hair, he was like a little boy, craving for her attention.
"Mhmm" he replied, nodding his head in agreement.
"If you keep up this act, we both won't be able to make it to work" Emma whispered in his ear.
He still had a company to run...more billions of money to make.
"Why don't you just quit working and let your husband take care of you?" He asked.. finally letting go of her.
"Then I won't be able to prove my worth as your wife. I need to prove that I'm capable of being your wife on my own" Emma replied, her voice full of sadness.
"Emma, I really don't care about that. You're the one I chose and it will forever be you" Draken replied, trying to cheer her up.
"I still want to do this... don't worry so much about me, I'll be fine" she reassured him, before he pulled her to his embrace.
"Have you ever thought about reclaiming your mom's company?" Draken suddenly asked.
If she insisted on working and proving herself, he'd gladly help her become president of Dave Corp. It was the only logic solution to both their problem...he wouldn't be forced into an arranged marriage with Samantha either by the board....Emma would stay by his side with confidence.
What would be her answer??
