The Bride In Black

Part 29

I followed him though the house opening a door I had never thought before showing a staircase so we followed it up and it opened to a large impressive suite.
It has a balcony that overlooked the garden, tall windows with wooden shutters, an impressive canopy bed with thick black and red curtains, and beautifully pressed sheets, a fluffy black rug around the bed so you didn't step onto the cold wooden floor, a large walk in wardrobe with many wooden cabinets even a vanity at the bottom, a large bathroom that needed a modernize but was very beautiful nonetheless.
"There she is" Thomas smiled coming in from the balcony "so? What do you think of your new room or well our room"
"It's beautiful" I smiled
"Well it's all yours darling, here I had the ladies downstairs make you a few things" he smiled taking me to the wardrobe opening one side showing the vast array of beautiful gothic dresses
"For me?"
"Of course. This whole half of the wardrobe is for you. And of course your own lovely vanity for my lovely little lady," he says
"Thank you" I blushed
"It's alright, best for you to make yourself at home"
I went and began to unpack Martin returning to other business so Thomas helped me to unpack putting things away in the wardrobe mostly so I could find places for smaller things
"I assume you have more at home?"
"I do"
"Alright, perhaps in a week or so we'll take a trip pack you all up and bring your things here I don't want you to go without your little nick nacks and things"
"Thank you Thomas"
"It's no trouble I want you to be comfortable your going to be here forever I want you to have your things and anything you need I'll get for you"
"Your sure?"
"Positive. So for example if my little lady thinks her wardrobe is a little empty I'll take her dress shopping or maybe she thinks her vanity is a little sparce I'll happily help her fill it up will beautiful things" he smiled cuddling me closely and giving me little kisses "your to be the lady of the manor I'm allowed to spoil you"
"Thomas!" I heard from the stairwell and moments later his mother arrived I was nervous around her admittedly he noticed pulling me a little closer
"Hello mother"
"What's... she doing up here?"
"Moving her things in. Y/n had decided to stay with us, indefinitely"
"Is this a joke?"
"No. She's decided to stay with me. As my beautiful lady isn't that right my love?"
"It is" I nodded
"Thomas may I have a word with you"
"Course"
"Privately"
"Anything you have to say to me you can say to y/n she's my bride to be after all"
"Don't you think this is a bit fast"
"Not at all."
"You only met last week"
"You didn't have the same complained about Ava and Oliver" he argued
"They didn't almost cost us our interior way of life last time they got a hard on for some strumpet!"
"It's not like that this time!"
"I've heard that before"
"Why don't you believe me?"
"Because baby you get attached very quickly, I can't blame you for that you've waited a very long time that doesn't mean you have to try and marry every girl you meet"
"Y/n's not like lillibeth. She chose to stay. Willingly. She wants to stay with me don't you y/n"
"Of course I do Thomas"
"See! She's different mother. And I love her I think now even more than I ever loved lillibeth"
"You can't blame me for my concerns"
"I know but just... I love her. Aren't you happy for me? I know it seems a little rushed but we have forever to get to know each other better,"
"Fine" she sighed "but I still don't trust her" she says before she headed down the stairs
"I'm sorry y/n."
"It's alright. I see her worries but we won't get married for a little while?"
"Not for a while, give us time together, long after Oliver's process we'll get sorted to get married alright?"
"Okay" I smiled giving him a kiss
"Come on, I wanna show you some of the houses little secrets" he smiled
