His Purchased Wife novel Chapter 165

When Emily danced with Dmitry her heart was beating so fast that she heard it would jump out of her body. He had this sardonic expression on his face that she was scared of being in his personal space. "I know you are not comfortable around me but there is no need to be scared of me, I will not harm you, Emily. You are part of my family now."

Emily gulped the heaviness and nodded. "May I ask you something?" She couldn't help but ask.

Dmitry nodded. "You may."

Alexandrio asked me not to speak about it but I couldn't hide my curiosity about it anymore. "How did you end up with this mark on your face?"

Dmitry chuckled when he recalled the incident. But he couldn't tell her the reality of the incident. Not until his brother shared the truth about their identities with his wife. So he told her the thing he told everyone who isn't aware of his real identity.

"As I have already told you before, I was in the army, it happens during one of the training sessions. If this mark was the reason for you being scared of me you could have asked me about it before."

Emily squeezed his hand, "I apologise for my behaviour. I have always seen you with these six giants behind you. I know you are a big businessman but I never saw anyone like this, my friend is from a big business family too, Alexandrio is your brother even though he has never been with these giant looking guards like you. I mean you don't even need any of these bodyguards when you look like this."

Dmitry chuckled. "I am beyond their reach, Emily. They all are big businessmen but I am the biggest among them. You know thaw saying the biggest fish in the pond, just replace it with ocean and fish with a sea monster. Leave it, I have to do all this for my safety, one day you will understand it. I hope we don't have the ice between us anymore. Keep my brother happy," he said when the song ended.

"Wait, you are saying that as if you are leaving?"

"Because I am, this city's air is unhealthy for my lungs. I have to go. I know you have been praying for it since I arrived here."

If only the floor could swallow her. "I already apologised to you for my behaviour."

Dmitry laughed and eyed his brother who was walking up to them with a scowl on his face. "You did, but I have to return to my kingdom now. One more thing, he placed a rolled paper which had a red ribbon tied on it in her hand," I hope you like my wedding present for you."

Alexandrio rested his hand on Emily's waist and smiled at his brother "don't tell me you are leaving already?"

" I am, stay safe, Alex," Dmitry said with a warning in his tone. The warning was not for him but the people around him. Alexandrio knew his brother was a caged monster. He had demons under his ice-cold mask, and if he ever allowed the monster in him to lose, things would turn ugly.

Dmitry Kyschove was not a human, he was a demon wearing human skin!

Alexandrio watched his brother leaving. He sighed, leaving a shaky breath. Emily looked at the rolled paper in her hand. "Do you know what it is?" She asked her husband who nodded.

"Yes, but you can't open it yet, let's go and change. We have to go on our honeymoon."

Emily smiled shyly and they both took their leave from the reception as per traditions. Once they reached their new home, Alexandrio asked Emily to dress up because he was taking her to dinner.

Emily frowned at his odd words. It was their wedding night, for God sake! "Xandrio, we came back from our reception feast, why would we go out for dinner, it's our wedding night."

Alexandrio placed a soft kiss on her head. "I have planned something for you. Please change into something formal. We are going to a black-tie restaurant."

Emily pinched her lips together in irritation while walking inside the closet. "What wedding night I got. Other brides are fidgety over their husband taking off the wedding gown and my husband wants me to dress in something formal."

Emily eyed the seductive nighties in her closet with longing and put on a formal powder pink suit with a stiff face. She didn't want to start her new life with a fight so she decided to keep quiet but tomorrow she was going to raise this issue to him. Everyone marries once for goodness sake! It was a lifetime memory but he ruined it for her.

Alexandrios heard her mumbling but he couldn't say anything to her. He wanted nothing else than to devour himself into her arms but couldn't, not till he gave her what she deserved and she deserves the wound to be healed. Today, he was going to put on the balm over her infected scars and sew her back. Today, Alexandrion was going to give her the long-awaited revenge.

Emily walked out of the closet and smiled stiffly. "Is this formal enough, husband?" She couldn't hide her sarcastic tone while asking the question.

"Better than enough, wife. Now, let's wait anymore," Alexandrio said, putting her hair behind her ear and tracing his forefinger along with her ear. The small gesture gave her goosebumps all over her body. She curled her toes in excitement.

"Xandrio…" she whispered but he shook his head. "Let's go," Alexandrio said, grabbing her hand firmly and walking out of the house.

Emily had never visited this hotel but the name sounds familiar to her. "I don't know but I don't feel good eating here."

Alexandrio kissed her head. "I promise they serve the best food but you might not like their services."

Emily thinner her lips. "I will hate everything even if you took me to dinner on the moon tonight, Xandrio."

Alexandrio chuckled. "Let's go inside."

Emily frowned when she found the place without any guests and only a single table was placed in the middle of the restaurant, with around twenty-five staff members standing there.

"Welcome, Mrs Kyschove." The manager said Emily, Smiling politely and went near her husband. "What is all this?"

"A dinner with my wife."

"Stop it, I know you are hiding something."

Alexandrio kissed her and pulled the chair for her, "have a seat, Zvezda."

She sharpened her eyes but accepted the chair. "Because I don't want to fight you on our wedding night."
