Ariana's Royal Adventure.

｢｢A R I A ｣｣

Guess who hasn't heard the word slüt for the past 24 hours? Me. Let's just say mermaids have bewitched Adekunle, why? Because he has been extra sweet to me, I don't even know what to do anymore, I cannot fall for Adekunle. . . Not now, and not ever.

Right? Stop fooling yourself, you have already fallen.

Sometimes my mind has a mind of its own.

After last nights kiss, my feelings were all over the place, I didn't understand what I was feeling, I wish I could just avoid Adekunle. . . But today is Sunday and we are currently on our way to church, part of me was happy about being in the house of God but the other part of me was feeling uneasy because I will be sited next to Adekunle, his presence makes me feel a lot of things and I just don't want to feel anything for this man.

"What are you thinking about?" The devil himself asked.

"Hmm, nothing."

"Oh come on, you think I don't know you, you're like an open book baby, so just tell me what's bothering you."

Breathe in, breathe out.

"We need to talk Adekunle, you aren't telling me things."

"Ha, see this one. What are you talking about?"

"Your father's death. . . I-" I was cut off by the bodyguard, who opened the door for Adekunle, who was tensed up from what I said, he eyed me for a second. "You don't know shit." With that said, he went out of the vehicle, leaving my by myself.

Great! Look what you've done.

"Your majesty, the king is waiting for you by the door."

I nodded, my black wedges comfortably hit the floor as I stepped out of the vehicle. The bodyguard shut the door, while I made my way to my now cranky husband. He stood there in all his glory, looking at his golden wristwatch, he was probably tired of waiting for me. "I'm here," I announced, interlocking our fingers together.

"Finally," he muttered as we walked in, not even sparing a glance at me.

Let's give a round of applause to Adekunle! The real Adekunle is back!

"Our life is full of brokenness — broken relationships, broken promises, and broken expectations. How can we live with that brokenness without becoming bitter and resentful except by returning again and again to God's faithful presence in our lives?" The pastor preached making me want to listen more, I even forgot Adekunle was sited next to me.

The service was soon over and we went back home, the king hadn't spoken to me since I spoke about his father, I don't know why he just can't tell me what happened, I'm his wife after all.

Right? Have you forgotten this marriage wasn't meant to be?!

"Shut up," I mumbled out loud, forgetting Adekunle was putting on his causal clothes in the walk-in closet.

He immediately looked up from where he was, his feet started moving. . . the way his body moved made me wonder what could be under the shirt he was wearing, his eyes never left mine as he gracefully walked closer to me. Let's just say I was expecting a kiss, I even closed my eyes. But instead of what I had anticipated, Adekunle grabbed my face with his big hands, that made me look up. His eyes were cold, holding no emotion, sometimes I wonder why he looked so perfect but then again maybe it's my stupid hormones.

His hands wondered around my hair, as he spoke, "and where do you think you're going to dressed like this? And on a Sunday night?" I held my breath, unable to do anything but listen, I should probably reply though.

"Folake and I are going out for dinner."

"But, why are you dressed like some slüt, I keep forgetting that I married a hussy, so go with that short thing!"

"But it isn't that short."

"Enh?" He asked touching my thighs, as his hands travelled up my thighs, I bit back a moan, my body was already on fire just from his touch. "So this isn't short, hm?"

"Adekunle, we. . .we need to talk." He pinched his nose bridge and let a sign escape his sexy lips. "What happened to your father?" I don't know why I had to ruin the moment.

His body tensed. "It's not your fūcking business bîtch." He walked away, leaving me dumbfounded and hurt, so much for being his wife.

Don't cry, don't cry.
