Second Marriage: My Strongest Bodyguard

By wearing only a light blue casual dress combined with a transparent white robe, Bryana went where Dean would take her tonight. Now, she is on her way to West Jakarta and it has been almost 30 minutes that her husband has been driving his car without telling her where he is going.

"Honey, where are we going?" Bryana asked curiously.

"I told you we were going to a place where no one could bother us," Dean replied with a smile turning his head at Bryana for a moment then refocused on staring at the road. He drives the car that has become his facility casually while listening to Ed Sheeran ft DJ Khalid's song entitled "beautiful people". The man looked very relaxed while his wife was half to death curious.

"If you were going to take me to a hotel or apartment, I shouldn't have dressed like this!" Bryana was again annoyed because she was so concerned about her style of appearance. Moreover, at this time she did not polish her face with any makeup.

Dean's left hand grabbed Bryana's right hand, then clasped it, kissing it so softly. "What's wrong with the clothes you're wearing? Just like that, you're already so pretty."

"These are clothes for sleeping, not for visiting someplace far away," Bryana explained irritably.

"We're going to sleep later, so it's fine with the clothes." Dean took a deep breath then exhaled. "I will also take off the clothes, so you don't have to bother thinking about other clothes. Whatever the type, I'll take it off," he continued casually.

Bryana turned her face to stare at the roadside scenery which was still active even though it was night. She smiled, felt hot on her face, and imagined what Dean would do to her tonight.

"Why are you silent? Isn't that what you've been waiting for since last night?" Dean glanced at Bryana with a sneer.

"I just want to be quiet because I'm still disappointed with you," Bryana shouted, releasing Dean's hand from hers, then looked away again. Huh, pretentious.

"Still disappointed? Then we'll just go home and make love at home." Dean pulled over the car.

"Dean, don't have a lot of drama. What do you want?" Bryana glared at Dean?

Instead of answering, Dean grabbed Bryana so she was forced to shift to sit on his lap. "Don't get angry all the time. That's all I want."

Bryana smiled faintly, then looked down to join her forehead with Dean's forehead, while her hand touched Dean's hairy jaw. "Okay, I'm not angry anymore, and take me to the place that you say will be comfortable for both of us without anyone can interfere," she exclaimed in a sensual tone.

Dean smiled so warmly, then kissed Bryana's lips for just a moment. "What I'm going to give you is nothing too fancy. I hope you like it," he said.

"I'll always like it while you are always by my side, Honey," Bryana assured, then hugged Dean. "A few hours without you, I can be stressed."

"Then I will never leave you again," said Dean while smiled and rubbing Bryana's shoulder.

After making out in the car, Dean returned to speeding the car with higher speed towards his old house. only need to take ten minutes, he has arrived at his yard which is not too wide and there are no gates around it.

"Why are you here? Whose house is this?" Bryana stared at the empty house that was dark from the outside. Gosh, Dean forgot to turn on the light before leaving!

"This is my house and it will be yours too," replied Dean with a smile, then opened the car door. "Come on down."

Bryana immediately got out of the car and approached Dean who immediately led her to the main door of the house. She silently glanced at the surrounding area that looked deserted and the many large trees around the housing. What surprised her was that the house looked the most different because it was European in style while the others were in a distinctly Indonesian style.

Dean opened the door with the key he carried. "Come in," he asked Bryana, who was still silent, glancing around.

"It's dark," Bryana muttered, but in, an instant, the room lit up as Dean pushed a switch stuck to the metallic wall.

Dean closed the door, then walked over to Bryana, who was silent, glancing around. "Why?"

"Why is this house in European style? It is not like most Indonesian houses." Bryana asked as she walked into a room she didn't know what room.

"Because Clarissa is of European descent. I purposely made a house with this style so that she feels at home and feels like she is in her country even though this house is far from luxurious," said Dean as he walked following Bryana. He took his wife's hand and then took her to the room which he had decorated as beautifully as possible.

"Is this your old house with your late wife?" Bryana looked at Dean in surprise, then glanced at the bed with white curtains, there are orange hanging lanterns in several corners of the room, making the room look dim and exotic.

"Yes, I love you as much as I love her. that's why I want to spend our first night here," explained Dean as he walked to the table, then lit a candle until all the dishes he had prepared were visible.

Bryana stares at the cake, champagne, and some snacks on the table which is also decorated with roses and scented candles. "You prepared all this alone?" She turned to look at Dean.

"Yes, since this afternoon I cleaned this house because it was dusty," explained Dean with a smile, then pulled out a chair and invited Bryana to sit down.

Dean invites Bryana to eat cake and enjoy snacks while chatting, occasionally drinking champagne that he has poured in a beautiful glass.

"Clarissa must be so happy to have a husband like you," Bryana muttered, bending her face.

"Then, are you unhappy?" Dean asked feeling strange at Bryana who seemed to be acting normal.

"I'm very happy. I'm honored to be able to replace Clarissa's position here. But ..." Bryana looked upset.

"But why?" asked Dean.

"I'm afraid you just make me as her shadow. I want you to love me completely, not in the shadow of her," explained Bryana a little awkwardly for fear of offending Dean.

Dean got out of the chair and walked over to Bryana. He extended his hand to his wife and asked her to stand up. "Look at me, in my eyes, in my heart, there is only you. Clarissa will always be in my heart, but my love is you, my future is you. Clarissa is a reminder that I have to take care of you and make you happy, make you the mother of my children. Believe me, right now there is no shadow because I love you with all my heart, not as an outlet or a replacement!"

"You love me? Not imagining her?" Bryana tries to convince herself that she is loved by Dean.

"Not! I love you and stopped imagining her from the moment I felt I had fallen in love with you until now. Only you, only you can make me stop imagining her and try to live a new life. New life by choosing you as my wife." Dean continued convincing, then crouched down in front of Bryana.

"If bringing you here makes you doubt my love, I can't force you to understand. I just want you to know that I've erased her as my love even though this house has lots of memories with her. I want to make new memories with you here."Dean looked down and felt very painful if Bryana stopped loving him because of his mistake in bringing Bryana to that house.

Bryana feels touched and realizes how hard it was for Dean before finding her a new love. she felt hurt seeing her husband looking so devastated, and imagined how hard it was for him to forget the wife whom God had taken. The woman looked down and cupped her husband's cheeks until their eyes met.

"I believe you love me and I think you don't need to forget her because she is Sofia's mother. I realized that I also have a problem with other men, I shouldn't be selfish by just wanting to be completely loved. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to make you sad." Bryana looked at Dean with teary eyes, then hugged him.

"I just want you to know that I only love you right now. Only you, only you are the spirit of my life after Sofia. I want to be with you forever until we grow old together." said Dean, hugging Bryana tightly back.

Bryana let out a hug to Dean, then stared at him intensely. "I know, I know you love me and I also love you very much. I can not describe how happy I am when I see you reached when welcoming me as your bride. I always beg God not to let our happiness end just like that."

"Me too. Let's walk together to build a better relationship, make the past a lesson so we don't make the same mistakes make your failure a motivation to make you always survive if we are hit by any problem," Dean exclaimed confidently, then wiped Bryana's tears that had unwittingly been spilled. he also understands that not only he is always pictured by the dark past, his wife is also in fear of the past too.

Bryana smiled and nodded. Dean immediately kissed her lips so softly that they pulled her to sit on his lap, then he got up and supported her slender body.

"Aghh!" Bryana was afraid to fall so that she put her arms around Dean's neck, while her legs were wrapped around Dean's waist so she wouldn't fall.

"Do not be afraid. You're too soft for me to just lift it like this," said Dean with a smile, then returned to kissing Bryana's lips as he walked toward the bed.

Bryana laughed and returned the kiss while holding on to Dean's shoulder. Her eyes were closed, feeling the joy of the kiss until her husband unconsciously pulled the curtain on the bed so she could stop the kiss and glanced at the bed which looked beautiful decorated with roses that lined up to form a heart.

"Beautiful, and I like this bed," Bryana muttered as she looked down at the bed.

"Beautiful, just like the person I'm going to sleep in this bed," said Dean with a warm gaze at Bryana.

Hearing Dean's words, seemed to make Bryana flutter even more. she swallowed her saliva and her breath began to rush to imagine what more action her husband would take.

Dean lays down Bryana's body so softly while kissing her lips until he supports it on top of Bryana's body.

Bryana returned the kiss with her hand that touched Dean's neck and chest, occasionally she sighed with her eyes closed.

"Eumhhh."

Slowly, Dean's kiss moved to Bryana's neck and ears.. His hands began to mischief the rope untied Bryana's robe, then squeezed her breast very gently.
