Dolores lifted her head and saw Matthew leaning in, the next second, his lips resting on hers.
Dolores unexpectedly didnât feel cold in such a severe winter, her body was warm and burningâ¦.. He was very strong, his coat almost covered her body, only her head was uncovered, suddenly, as if Dolores somehow understood his intention to bring her to such a remote place, âDo you want to lure Sampsâ¦â
His kiss suddenly deepened, blocking the vague words on the tip of his tongue.
He dragged his tongue in and swallowed, such a wild, deep kiss was painful for Dolores, she couldnât help but moan in pain, but instead it sounded like a whimper.
Not knowing if her voice was stimulating him, Dolores clearly felt her bodyâs reaction.
Dolores pushed against him, but the more she pushed, the tighter Matthew held her.
She could hardly breathe because of how tight he was.
Deep in the forest, thereâs a pair of red, bloodthirsty eyes.
Sampson clung to the tree trunk, as if she was strangling Matthewâs neck, she kept using her strength as if it would only stop when it broke.
It was the irony of seeing a woman he really liked, in the arms of another man, intimate with each other.
He was furious and hated it.
He had been with her for so many years, wasnât he as good as the man who had hurt her?
If what was left of his rationality didnât tell him that he might not be able to get Dolores back if he had rushed in at that moment, he would have rushed in and torn Dolores from Matthewâs embrace.
Dolores belonged to him!
Matthew kept doing it without stopping, Dolores bit his unruly tongue out of anger, she was surprised because suddenly there was a smell of blood in her mouth, she left her lips with a mixture of saliva and blood stuck between her lips.
It broke when the wind blew, Dolores felt her mouth was very cold, Matthew licked his lips, he just swallowed the salty of the blood and wiped the remaining moisture on the corner of his mouth, he sounded a little hoarse, âAre you so cruel to meâ¦?â
Dolores turned her head without a word.
Matthew hugged her again, âLetâs go home.â
His coat covered her body while he wore only a thin suit, Dolores took off his coat and put it on, âI have my down jacket, Iâm not cold.â
Matthew hugged her, the big coat covered them both.
They returned to the hotel and went upstairs, hearing noises still coming from Armandâs room and there was a slight opening in his door, Samuel held that candy tied with string and dangled it over the edge of Armandâs mouth.
He even muttered, âArmand, if you canât bite it, tonight Theresa will hug me in her sleep.â
Armand was speechless.
Whose son was Samuelâs? Could they take him away so he wouldnât disturb their bridal chamber?
Armand tried a couple of times and couldnât quite bite it.
âAnd anything else?â
Samuel nodded as if he was very easily persuaded, âSure, if you canât bite Iâll ask Theresa to cuddle me to sleep.â
Armand was speechless.
That was bullying, was there a difference?
âI have another idea, another way to play.â suggested Armand.
Samuel was still being very respectful to Armand as he asked, âHow do you want to play it?â.
Armand smiled as he looked at Samuel, âDonât move your hands.â
Samuel was the one who was speechless this time, âYouâll bite it if I donât move, whatâs the fun then?â
Armand glared hatefully at Boyce who was sitting off to the side and watching the show, he was the one thinking of those bad ideas.
Boyce spread his hands and smiled slyly, âWedding night joke, if we are not joking then how can it be called a wedding night joke? You two will only last long if we tease you.â
Armand was annoyed, âFuck off.â Boyce burst out laughing.
Samuel crawled out of bed and sighed, âWhy are you being so stupid?â
Armand was speechless.
He was about to yell, âTry me!â but then he saw that Samuel had taken the candy from him and eaten it himself, Samuel tied an apple on the string and said kindly, âYouâll be able to bite it if I give you a bigger one.â
Armand reached over and rubbed his head, âSamuel, youâre better.â
Samuel smiled, crawled back onto the bed and stood up, dangled the apple in front of his eyes, âArmand, if you canât bite it this time, Iâll punish you toâ¦.. wash Theresaâs feet.â
Theresa who was playing with Simona blushed somehow at Samuelâs words.
Armand looked at her and said yes.
âCome on then.â
The result was very painful, Samuelâs hand moved once he bit it, so he missed, the apple hit his face several times, the skin of the apple was too slippery, his mouth could touch it, but he couldnât bite it.
âYouâre playing with me!â only then did Armand realize that exchanging the candy for the apple was malicious.
âGo and get the water to wash her feet.â Samuel ordered him like a master.
âWashing my wifeâs feet is not shameful.â Armand consoled himself before going to the bathroom to fetch hot water.
Soon, Armand brought a bucket of hot water and set it beside the bed, then shouted to Theresa, âMy dear wife, come wash your feet.â
Theresa pretended not to hear him, she felt embarrassed because there were so many people.
Samuel tugged at her, âTheresa, please come here.â
Simona thought it was funny, she helped Samuel and pulled Theresa along with him.
Theresa could refuse adults, but she couldnât refuse the two children so she sat obediently on the side of the bed, she even wore high heels, Armand lifted her feet and gave her some sandals, Samuel covered his mouth and smiled secretly.
âTheresa, I am your protector, tell me if Armand bullied you, I will avenge you.â
Theresaâs eyes somehow turned red at Samuelâs words, no one had said they would protect her, Samuel was the first.
She felt excited and sad at the same time.
She took a breath and patted Samuelâs head, âThank you, Samuel.â
âYouâre welcome, Mom said weâre a family.â Samuel grabbed a handful of candy and stuffed it in his sisterâs pocket, âThese are Theresaâs wedding candies, we should eat more.â
After stuffing the candy, he took Simonaâs hand, âWeâre leaving.â As she walked past Boyce, âBoyce, you should go too.â
Boyce thought Samuel was going to torment Armand some more, he didnât expect her to let him go so quickly.
He got up from the chair, âSamuel, this is the only chance to give him a hard time, have you thought this through and youâre just going to let him go like this?â
âIâll let him go for Theresa, if he bullies Theresa one day, Iâll deal with him.â
Armand dipped Theresaâs foot in the warm water and looked up at the same time, âDid you bribe him? Why is he treating you so nice?â Theresa ignored him.
Theresa knew those two when she followed Dolores, they had gotten along for a long time, of course they had a good relationship.
Armand put his other foot in the hot water, âIâll treat you right from now on.â
Theresa rubbed her face, âYou should do as you said.â
Armand washed her feet earnestly, she was very white and her feet were the same, very delicate.
Theresa felt itchy, she removed her feet, Armand grabbed her feet and put them in the bucket, âThe soaking will make you feel good.â
Samuel and the others saw Dolores and Matthew standing by the door just as they came out.
Simona rushed over to hug Doloresâ leg, âMommy, thereâs so much candy in my pocket, hereâs one for you.â
She pulled out a piece of candy, opened its wrapper and handed it to Doloresâ¦. Dolores bent down and ate the candy.
It was very sweet.
Boyce went to the back and closed the door.
Armand came back after pouring the water and saw the door closed, he didnât feel comfortable so he went over and closed the door.
He turned around and saw Theresa standing there.
