Luna

Chapter 11

"You may now kiss the bride."

Iris almost felt numb when she heard the mayor.

Kiss? That's right! After the wedding.. after the wedding ceremony is the kiss.. Iris felt like she was about to freak out again.

She was already Twenty-Four Years old but still didn't have any experience being intimate with others before.

Since young, Iris had been very busy with all of her activities. Most of free time was dedicated to self improvement (aka looking perfect). She didn't really date other people before.

More importantly, she never felt interested in being intimate with another person. In fact, she even felt uncomfortable whenever she came close to any man.

Thus, until now, despite her experienced (dirty) mind, Iris' body was still very innocent.

Her heart pounded so hard when she thought that she would have her first kiss.. and in front of her relatives and neighbors that is!

But my first kiss..will be given to this super handsome guy.. who just became my husband. I won't be losing anything! Iris was still contemplating on her situation when she felt her veil was arranged at the back of her head. Then, warm fingers grasped her chin and gently made her look up.

She saw Elliot's beautiful dark orbs which seemed to suck all of the energies in her body. Immediately, Iris felt weak.

Elliot stared at her eyes for a few seconds before his gaze dropped to her enticing full lips. His other hand grabbed Iris' waist and pulled her body into his arms.

Then, he slowly dipped his head and softly captured her lips.

The tender touch of their lips sent electricity to both of their bodies. This kiss made Iris' mind blank, again. She could only feel his lips gently pressing on her and she felt butterflies in her stomach.

Elliot slowly parted his lips and took her upper lips in between his before gently sucking it. Because of this, Iris felt weak on her knees and grabbed on his waist.

Unfortunately, after a few seconds, Elliot let her lips go. His hands, however, stayed on her.

"Congratulations to the newly-wedded couple!" The mayor announced and everyone applauded.

......

Take my hand. Take my whole life too. 'Cause I can't help falling in love with you.

The soft music was playing and everyone seemed to be having fun at the party. Iris was sitting on the chair of the center table while she pushed around with the food on her plate.

In fact, she was hungry and the food on her plate was one of her childhood favorite dishes.

Still, she cannot eat properly because Elliot did not let go of her hand. He would even occasionally caress her palms which regularly gave her goosebumps.

"You should eat more." She heard Elliot's mellow whisper and goosebumps appeared on her arms.

You make me so nervous I can't even think about food right now. Iris mentally complained.

Her face showed a look of a shy girl but Elliot knew that she was complaining about him inside.

"Is it because I hold your hand?" He kindly asked.

Iris squinted her eyes a little before honestly nodding.

Thus, Elliot let her hand go.

However, before Iris could even breath out of relief, Elliot grabbed her waist firmly and slightly pulled her to him.

"Your hands are free now so you can eat with ease." He softly said while giving her an honest look.

......

"Girl, I can't believe that her husband is ultra handsome. His looks make me dizzy!" A throaty voice said.

Micka was standing on the side corner of the yard where the party was being held. She watched the interactions between Elliot and Iris and her mood turned sour. She gripped her glass tight and sipped her wine when she heard her friend. She was in a very foul mood.

I can't believe she really has such a man! She mentally complained while her expression was getting darker.

Earlier, the two shared their first dance as a newlywed couple. Micka clearly saw how tender and loving Elliot was to Iris. She also definitely saw him carefully pulling Iris into his arms like she was a priceless jewel.

"But I heard that he didn't have a car?" Another woman interjected.

"That's right! I saw him getting out of Iris' car earlier. They said he was a businessman?" The first woman replied.

"That's what they said. Maybe his business is not doing good."

"He is just handsome! Your Liam is still better than him!" Someone replied.

That's right. My Liam is so much better. Even though the guy is really attractive, he is too poor to buy his own car. Plus, do you think I didn't know that you really like Liam before? Micka smirked while she dialed a number on her phone.

"Liam, when are you arriving? The wedding is over." Micka cutely said when her call was answered.
