But Corrine had always been a believer in working through your problems by facing them and tearing them down. Through Jackson’s screams is how she would find her peace.

A cabin a short walk into the mountains from Lily’s Rest had been cleaned and prepared for the newlyweds.

Selene and Alexander had walked hand in hand through the trees, enjoying the breeze and the light of the moon above them.

The arena was more than a mile away, but still, Selene felt her attention being drawn to it, Alexander reached over, turning her chin toward him. He smiled.

“I am here,” he whispered, leaning down to kiss her.

His lips brushed hers in a gentle reminder, a quick soft moment that filled her with warmth and let her forget about anything else.

When they reached the cabin, Selene felt her worries suddenly rising. Her heart began to beat wildly as her palms became sweaty.

They had shared intimate moments. Held each other, kissed, touched. But there had always been a stopping point. A safety net that kept her from letting down all her defenses and becoming vulnerable to him.

Alexander felt the concern in her, the fear and anxiety. As much as he wanted to be with her, to make love to her, he wanted her to be comfortable enough to complete their bond. To enjoy every moment they shared.

He moved to stand in front of her, she gasped and swallowed as she looked up at him. He gave her a comforting smile and then offered his hand. She took it and he guided her to the couch.

“Where are we going?” she asked, glancing back toward the bedroom.

“Sit,” he said softly.

She did as he asked and then he sat down beside her. He took her hand in his and looked at her.

“I’m sorry that I couldn’t give you the wedding you deserve,” Alexander said.

Selene furrowed her brows and looked at him with curiosity.

“And what kind of wedding do I deserve?” she asked.

“The kind that people talk about for years to come,” he smiled. “With decorations, bridesmaids, a whole show of it.”

Selene smiled at him, feeling his intention, his pure desire to make her feel comfortable.

“I wanted to give you the wedding of your dreams,” he said.

She thought back to the thick binder that had lived beneath her bed for the better part of two years. Of all the nights cutting pictures out of magazines, as she talked with Bell and Renee about color schemes, gown silhouettes, and styles.

All the details she had focused on in her wedding to Jackson.

Selene took a breath in and let out a soft laugh.

“I planned my dream wedding before,” she said. “A fancy dress, decorations everywhere, flowers, matching bridesmaid’s dresses… all of it.”

Alexander looked at her, swallowing down his feelings of guilt for not having been able to give her what she had wanted.

“We can do that,” he said quietly. “We can do another ceremony in Summer, with all of it. Decorations, flowers, a big fancy dress, whatever you want.”

Selene laughed.

“No,” she said still smiling. “You don’t understand.”

She turned to face him.

“I thought all those things would make my wedding special. Because I was looking for something to make it feel that way,” she said. “But you and I, we are the special thing.”

Alexander smiled.

“I know I sprung all of this on you, and I didn’t think about what you wanted,” she said quickly. “But for me, our wedding was everything I could have dreamed of.”

Alexander leaned forward, giving her a sweet kiss.

“All I have ever wanted,” he whispered, “is you.”

Selene felt her heart racing once again.

Alexander grabbed her shoulders gently and turned her so that she had her back to him.

“What are you doing?” she asked.

“You look beautiful,” he whispered, running his hands gently over her shoulders.

Selene swallowed nervously as she felt an electric tingle everywhere his fingers grazed. She gasped as she suddenly felt the brush of his lips against her throat.

“This must have taken a lot of time and work,” he whispered, his hot breath caressing the sensitive skin as his warm fingers trailed up to her hair.

“Axel… did it,” she said in a throaty whisper.

Alexander smiled. He enjoyed the way she reacted to him.

“I hate to ruin his effort,” Alexander said, as he began to carefully remove the small flowers scattered across her hair. “But I’ve noticed that the only time you ever wear your hair down, is when you are with me.”

Selene was surprised by his observation. He wasn’t wrong, she never wore her hair down. Even freshly out of a shower she would often immediately tie it back in a loose braid.

“It’s a comfort thing,” she whispered, looking back at him over her shoulder. “I was trained to tie my hair back so it wouldn’t get in the way during a fight. I trained so often that I just got used to always keeping it out of the way. I only ever wear it loose when I don’t need to worry about a fight. When I feel… at home.”

Alexander nodded.

“Because of that,” Alexander replied warmly, “I have developed a taste for it.”

He carefully and skillfully removed the flowers and pins.

“I’m selfish,” he whispered as the gathered twists and curls fell to her shoulders. He licked his lips and let out a shaky breath. “I want to be the only one that gets to see this side of you.”

Selene felt his desire growing. He turned her to face him, and she saw the dark swirls in his eyes. Her own cravings were rising.

She took a deep breath and put her hand on his chest, preventing him from moving forward as he leaned in to kiss her.

“What’s wrong?” he asked, his voice thick and low. It pulled at her resolve.

“Wait,” she whispered.

Selene pushed away from the couch, getting to her feet and backing away. She licked her lips nervously.

“We should get comfortable,” she said, glancing toward the bedroom door with a blush.

Selene looked at herself in the mirror, she bit her lower lip with eagerness as she glanced down at what she wore beneath the robe. She giggled and hoped he would be pleased when he saw her.

She took a deep breath before opening the bathroom door.

Alexander lifted his eyes at the sound of the door opening. He grinned when she stepped out. Gone was the white dress and braided crown.

Her hair fell loose and wild around her shoulders and she wore a thin black satin robe that ended just above the knee. Her legs were bare of any covering, hinting at what he might find beneath the robe.

Alexander swallowed as his eyes appreciated the picture she was painting for him.

He sat up in bed. Getting a clearer view of her as she stepped forward, pulling at the belt of her robe with a smile that drew a throaty growl from him.

As Selene reached the end of the bed, she turned her back to him. Then, looking over her shoulder, she smiled playfully.

“I bought something special for you,” she whispered. “I hope you like it.”

She pushed the fabric of the robe off her shoulders, letting it fall to the floor revealing the deep blue satin of the slip she wore.

The slip was barely long enough to reach past the generous curve of her butt, she turned slowly toward him, and the movement gave him a teasing glance of the lacey panties below..

Facing him, Alexander drew in a sharp breath as he saw that the sheer lace that covered her breasts left very little to the imagination. He bit down on his lip as his eyes burned the image into memory.

His pulse was racing as he looked at her with a hunger that threatened to override his senses. Finally, he moved off the bed, revealing to her that he now only wore his boxer briefs.

Selene blushed and licked her lips as he approached her around the bed.

Alexander looked her up and down before he put his hands on her shoulders gently and ran his fingertips down the soft skin of her arms.

“Is… is this the lingerie from–”

“Is it not how you imagined?” she asked, pulling her arms up to cover her chest. Suddenly feeling very self-conscious.
