BY SIR ZACH

CHAPTER 4

Maverick laid Jeslyn to sleep on a huge bed before he stood by the side to watch her. She was so drunk that the smell of alcohol on her was horrible but Maverick had no intention of waking her up or cleaning her up. It was to his own advantage because he knew that she would be throwing a tantrum by the time she woke up.
Sat by the bedside and looked at her lovingly. He missed her so much that he couldn’t stay back anymore and broke the stupid rules laid down by Celestine.

He knew that if he did it so brazenly when Jeslyn is still this angry at him, the result might be bad rather than good, so he schemed against that stubborn bull to have his way. For a week or two, Celestine wouldn’t be conducting classes, so he and Jeslyn would stay together on this Island until they settle their differences. He’d rather die than lose her again for the second time!

Maverick brushed away the messy hair on her gorgeous face and slowly stroked her inviting lips. Jeslyn moved her lips and slowly parted them a little. A small smile found its way to Maverick’s lips when he saw her behaving like a kitten.

“… You heartless woman,” he said slowly. “How could you ignore me for so long?” He pulled down her lower lip to see her well-arranged teeth. “Didn’t you …miss me?”

He thought of something and his brows creased. That boy…

Maverick’s eyes lowered to Jeslyn’s chest and he saw that her first few buttons were opened. Thinking that Ruben must have seen his wife’s peaches, Maverick’s eyes darkened.

Was this why he was blushing after seeing him? Was it because he saw his wife’s little treasures, was that why he stuttered and looked frightened? In no time, the room was filled with Maverick’s killing intent. His hand was balled in a fist as he thought of the inconceivable.

If he hadn’t hurried there in time, would that ‘boy’ have taken advantage of his weak wife?

Maverick arrived at Country Y by evening and was expecting to meet Jeslyn in her hostel but instead, he was told by Yellow that Jeslyn went with her friends to the Karaoke close to them.

When he got there, Jeslyn’s friends were singing while she sat there looking annoyed. He didn’t want to get involved so he booked the next VIP karaoke room and asked code two to bring him his laptop. Then he hacked into the system and started to watch what was going on in the room.

Maverick saw when Jeslyn changed the music and started to sing. He saw when she burst into tears, he saw and heard all the truth and dare they did. Stupid of her to think that lowly of him.

Maverick also saw when she drank 5 bottles of beer and fell asleep. It was after he saw that guy alone with his woman that he stood up to go pick up his wife, only to see that horrendous scene.

Maverick picked up his phone and dialed a number. “Investigate someone…”

After the call, he set the phone aside and started to take off her dress. He didn’t intend to do this but if he doesn’t take advantage of her at this point, he’ll lose out tomorrow.

After taking off her dress and seeing her stark naked, he went to get some water in a bowl and cleaned her up. “Troublesome,” he sighed after saying that. “Why drink when you can’t? If things are bad, you talk it out, not drink it out, Jeslyn.”

He returned the water before he started to take off his clothes. After he took off everything, he went under the blanket and drew closer to her. He leaned closer to her, ready to steal a kiss when he heard her say in her sleepy voice;

“Bad Maverick… You are so bad. So wicked. I hate you…”

Maverick froze and shifted his gaze to her face. She was still sleeping. He shook his head before he got on top of her, but made sure to support his weight with his hands.

“Don’t call me wicked yet. Although I won’t do anything, still, you can’t escape this. It’s your fault for running away when you should be fighting for your husband.”

“I hate you. I’ll take my revenge… a gigolo with a better body than yours that lasts longer in bed than you. I’ll find a gigolo that will get me pregnant. I’ll…”

Maverick placed a palm over her mouth to shut her up. His aura was so dark that one would think he was killing her. How dare this woman. If she isn’t conceiving such thoughts, she wouldn’t dare say them in her dream.

He narrowed his eyes at her. She was frowning, so he let go of her mouth but she continued;

“I will hit the club tonight and send you pictures too…” Maverick suddenly sealed his lips with his and kissed her hungrily.

After a long while, Jeslyn’s lashes trembled. She slowly opened her hazy eyes. Her mind was fuzzy and it felt like a weird dream. She could see the blurred silhouette of something looming over her but she couldn’t make sense of what it was.

She tried to get away but she felt the thing had pinned her down and no matter what she did, it was futile. She screamed; “let me go,” she thought her voice was loud enough for someone to run in and save her, albeit her voice came out as a whimper.

As she was struggling, she felt a bad taste in the back of her throat and instinct told her it was bad, so she tried to get away even more but the thing instead started to lower itself towards her face. The unrest in her stomach was getting out of hand and she really needed to let it out.

Maverick, who had pinned Jeslyn down and stopped her from throwing a tantrum, lowered himself to kiss her since she wouldn’t stop calling for help even though her voice was inaudible. Just when his face was an inch away…

“Blargh”
Maverick completely froze for a long time with eyes widened. He was in total disbelief and speechlessness sliced his tongue.

He regained his senses when he saw her smiling and rubbing her head on his strong arm that he placed on the bed. Maverick gritted his teeth and balled his hands. This woman!

He got off her and accidentally looked at himself in the mirror. The puke on his face looked so disgusting. Would she still have the face to be angry at him after doing this to him?

He stormed out of the room and went to take a long shower before returning to clean off the mess she made on the bed, including her body. “This is your last time drinking.” He said while cleaning up her body.

When he returned, he kissed her forehead and wrapped his hands around her before going to sleep… completely ignoring his little brother that was long awake.

Stupid thing. Can’t it see that the atmosphere isn’t for such things?
…

THE LAST MINUTE GROOM SEASON 2: CHAPTERS 1 – 10

Morning came and Jeslyn opened her eyes to the bright sun peeping through the curtains. She tried to get up like she used to do but a severe headache attacked her. She moaned in pain and rested her head back on the pillow.

“Why does it hurt? Did I hit my head?” Her eyes paused on the curtains and she slowly turned her head to survey the room. This wasn’t her room!

She forced herself to seat up and saw a bowl of soup on the top of the drawer beside the bed. Underneath the white bowl, a white note was sticking out. She picked it up.

The first thing that caught her attention was the beautiful calligraphy. It was so beautiful that it looked like it was printed rather than written. If not for the content, she would have argued that it was printed.

‘Drink the hangover soup… not poisoned.’

“Maverick?” She frowned. Only Maverick had she seen breaking words or saying words in incomplete sentences.

He’s not Aphasia, but only too lazy to talk.

“It can’t be him,” Jeslyn concluded. Just as she was about to put the small note away, she turned the back and saw his title boldly written there like her eyes were too small to notice it if he had used less ink and strength.

‘Your husband’

Jeslyn’s heart froze for a few seconds before she subconsciously looked around the room. As expected, their clothes were flying everywhere. Slowly, she lowered her eyes and raised the blanket. Of course, she was naked.

“You demon!!” She screamed. Thanks to that, her headache was agitated. She hurriedly drank the soup with her heart raging.

He cheated on her, and instead of showing remorse, he’s boldly claiming the title he didn’t consider and also dared to rap* her!

Never, she’s not going to allow this!

After drinking the hangover soup, Jeslyn stayed in bed for a while before she entered the bathroom and tied a towel around her waist. She couldn’t find pajamas or other clothes and her uniform… Well, they smell like alcohol.

This wasn’t her house, so she knew Maverick who brought her here was probably in the sitting room.

She marched to the sitting room, ignoring the fact that she was still feeling dizzy and discomfort. Although her throbbing headache had subsided a lot, there was still a tingling sensation.

Good for her. It was her first time drinking, yet, she drank more than the drinkers.

Getting to the sitting room, it was… empty. She went to the kitchen– empty. Other rooms– empty!

Jeslyn knitted her brows. She knew that Maverick cannot bring her here and abandon her, so she went outside. Maverick was nowhere to be found but what she found was a pink sea that stretched as far as her eyes could see.

She looked around and what she was seeing was beyond her. Sea and filled everywhere with scanty coconut trees.

If Jeslyn was added to explain the scenery, she would say that the sea was moved forward and the house she was standing in was built in the middle of the sea.

“What is going on here?” Jeslyn asked herself as she blinked at the wonder she was seeing.

In the blue sky, a big apology message was written with whatever it could be.

‘Rossa… I’m sorry. Please don’t hold it against me. It was a mistake done in my weakest state. I won’t shy away from it, nor push the blame onto someone else. Your husband was weak and he deserved to be punished but in a different way. Whatever you want, please say it but certainly not divorce. I won’t allow it.
If you forgive me, come to the back of the house.’

Then the writing disappeared and a red broken heart popped up. Jeslyn laughed. She couldn’t fathom Maverick doing this. It must have been Rex.

She was right and wrong. Maverick made a simple apology.

‘Rossa… I’m sorry. Please don’t hold it against me. Your husband was weak.’

That was what Maverick wrote but Rex hissed and called it bland, then he added what he felt was better.

Jeslyn headed to the back of the house and there, she saw a small glass house… a modern cabin to be precise. The house was white with transparent glass that shows the interior of the house.

Jeslyn gasped and exclaimed; “Wow! So beautiful!” She started to run towards the building in no time, snow started to fall.

“It’s snowing?” She stopped and stretched out her hand. Snow got on it and she smiled. Jeslyn knew it was man-made too.

How much work was put into this apology?

She continued to walk towards the house barefooted and when she got there, the glass door automatically opened. She entered but instead of Maverick, she saw flowers made into tiny heart shapes. With some words; ‘forgive me, please.’

Jeslyn sighed. There was no bedroom, no kitchen, only a sitting room. Maverick isn’t here either, so where is he?

She sat on a white sofa and picked an apple from the tray of fruit on the table.

“What is this house called? a sitting room cabin? Everything is so white. Except for the red apology flowers. Is this Valentine’s sitting room?” She looked around one more time and scoffed.

“Your apology is so tacky… ahhhh!!”

“Boom!”

Jeslyn choked and started to cough violently. She repeatedly waved away a large number of flowers she was lying on.

When she was falling up just now, she saw a big red… balloon… was it? Whatever.

The thing was red and very large. She fell on it and it exploded, sending lots of rose petals flying everywhere.

She looked above her head to see where she fell from and was so shocked that she let out an ear-piercing scream after she regained her senses.

“Maverick!!!!”

The room was dim but thanks to the light coming from the open she fell from, a part of the room was illuminated, which was how she saw the balloon and petals.

“Click”

The light was put on and Jeslyn gasped at what she saw. The room was beyond beautiful! She couldn’t describe what she was seeing. Never in her life had she seen a room this gorgeous!

The massive room was divided by two colors. One side was peach and white, the other side was light purple and white. It was not known if it was the lights producing the beautiful effect or if it was still another… wait! Illusion??

Because it’s inconceivable that one room will appear to have the features of two rooms. How can the peach and white light coming from the right side stop in the middle of the bed and the other side having purple and white light meeting its counterpart on the same bed but didn’t join? How is that possible? This was beyond scientific explanation!

She looked around, hoping to see Maverick because she heard a click just now before the light turned on. Although the room was too beautiful to be imagined, she was starting to grow restless without Maverick here.

“Maverick?”

This time, her tone was soft but instead of Maverick responding or showing himself, the illusion faded and the wall turned into a large screen. The screen was showing different pictures and videos of Valen. The child was either walking, sitting, or sleeping.

“Va– Valen?” Jeslyn furrowed her brows slightly as she started to get a weird feeling. Why would he start to show her Valen’s images out of the blue when Valen is supposed to be at the hospital? Is anything the matter?
