Cherreads

Chapter 21 - Flushed cheeks and shy stares

She stare at him with wide eyes for minute,her face is turning in to bright red with blush looking like cute little tomato,he smirk, seeing her blush make him wanted to kiss her so hard till she couldn't breath properly but sadly he had to hold it in,since he promise himself and her that he will not do anything until she's fully his.

''You don't have to look shocked ,we are gonna get married anyway''Carmine said with most natural look in his face.

Leila was taken back by that

''I think we should focus on your healing first''she try to get up but Carmines' good hand was faster, he pull her in making her fall in to him a thud, he groan when her body hit his wound burring his head on side of her neck,she stay stilled not knowing what to do, she wanted to pull away but his hand was on her waist firmly,that she can barely move.

''Don't'' he held her more tightly when she try to pull away making it's impossible for her to get up.

''Carmine-''

''Call me honey''she felt her body go on fire in instance

''please,don't call by my name If you love me''his voice was shaky,the pleading sound so desparate ''please''He burried his face in her neck more further like he's searching for long lost warmth only she can provide.

her hand went around his neck automatically,it almost felt unreal until she burried her head in his neck too inhaling lungs full of his scent tightening his grip around his neck,still blushing like a little mess

a small smile flicker through his lips making him blush too,he was giggling like a baby inside is head though he didn't show it,

''Tell me love,tell me that you love me and love to marry me''his voice more like a horas whisper with a pleading,that made a shriver run through her spine,she closed her eyes feeling the the warmth she never felt from a man before, inhaling his scent filling her lungs with it.

after full five second she pull away until she can look at him in the eyes,''I will marry you'' her eyes are fill with fresh tears balling down her cheaks like rain drops.

Carmine stare at her like he don't believe his ears,then he brought his hand to her cheek and wipe the warm tear falling down her cheeks while his own star to welled up he smile through tears caressing her face like she might disappear any moment before he could have her.

he kissed her forehead softly like it's sacred,for a moment they both didn't talk still basking in the warmth of each other.

Leila haven't fully fall for him but she know she is ,while Carmine is in love with her even before the arrangement happened.

they both sat in silent none of them have try to pull away,Carmine is still hiding his head in her neck,still inhaling her soft floral scent that he bought her,That perfume was the newest collaboration he had with one of his biggest client just to avoid the mafia scandals,He have smelled that perfume when it launched it was okay but when he smelled it through her he felt it so addictive that he couldn't let go at all.

''You smell like the heaven''he said nuzzling further into her warmth msking her giggle,that sound is more addictive than her scent,she's someone who barely talk so when she giggle like that It felt unreal for him,like he's dreaming.

she ran her thin fingers through his dark black hair making him close his eyes wanting her warmth more and more every second,he look like a lost puppy not the powerful mafia boss who made half of the country scared.

''you know,I like to hear your voice more often if you willing to speak more''he said tightening his grip on her looking up at her with puppy eyes that made it impossible ignore the adorable look he's give.

Leila wondered if this is the same mafia boss who carried her from her father house that day,that man look so demanding but the one in her arm look like a lost puppy in bandages.

''I'll try to talk more''a shy blush crept across her face making her more adorable.

''I want to kiss you,but I'd like to do it infront of everyone,in the altar first''she hide her face between her hand embarrased at his words

''hey.., don't hide your pretty face from me''he push her hands away from her face,he looked at her crimson face like it's a throphy

his smile widen when he saw the way she squirm under the intensity of his stare,while heat radiating through he flushed cheeks, making her reder than a tomato

he took one of her hand and interlocking their fingers together,they both stare at their locked hand silently.Both are in thier own worlds thinking what might future hold for them.

In the other side of the city something heated was planing.Tina had all the information she need to collapse the bond Leila and Carmine start to build,and she found the perfect pawn she needed,

it is none other than,

Milly.
