"This one Trevon knew exactly what Selina was up to. A flicker of warmth crossed his eyes as he selected a lipstick for her. Selina reached out for it. but Trevon leaned in to apply it himself.
There was a hint of surprise in Selina's expression. For the first time, she looked at him up close. To her, Trevon was beyond handsome-the epitome of unattainable nobility.
Yet, in this moment, he seemed different, intensely focused but in a way that made her feel like she was the only person in his world. His gaze, fixated on her lips as though trying to capture every detail, completely enveloped her.
Working with meticulous care. Trevon painted her lips, and Selina caught sight of his eyelashes. They were long-astonishingly so, even rivaling a woman's in their beauty.
Trevon had a sharp, striking nose and skin so smooth it made most women envious. Standing at an impressive 6 feet 2 inches, he had to stoop to apply Selina's lipstick, looking every bit the devoted knight to his queen
After he finished, Trevon gently pinched Selina's chin with his fingertips, admiring his handiwork like it was a masterpiece. "Check it out" he said, stepping back.
Selina tore her gaze away from Trevon's exceptional eyelashes and looked at her reflection. The lipstick had transformed her, the bright red making her face come alive with an untamed allure. It complemented her deep-set eyes, giving her a fierce kind of elegance. "You've got an eye for this," she said, a smirk playing on her lips. "Honey, how come you're so good at picking stutt for women?"
"I've seen a lot of women, after all, Trevon said with a confident grin, unable to hide his amusement
Trevon never imagined a day when he'd be picking necklaces and applying lipstick for a woman. Anyone who knew him would be stunned, and frankly, Trevon was pretty surprised himself. But life had a way of throwing people curveballs. Now he got it, And there was something else-Selina was the most beautiful woman he'd ever laid eyes on
"You sure have seen a lot of them. Mr. Brady You know just the right makeup for a woman on the first try." Selina said.
I won't lie I've met my fair share of women. But you're the only one I can see as my wife," Trevon replied, his voice carrying a weight of sincerity.
He watched Selina as if he could peer into her very soul. Selina leaned in and playfully tipped Trevon's chin up, her gesture resembling that of a mischievous cat. "Honey, I'll be your wife, but just for a year," she whispered,
"Even if it's just for a year, you're still my wife, he responded firmly.
"Right. For a year, I'm your wife and you're my husband-it's all legal and official" As Selina's fingers grazed Trevon's stubbly chin, she proposed. "Let's add a new rule to the agreement. While we're married, no flirting with other women and no scandals. I don't need any distractions while I deal with the jerks."
Trevon stood up and in a playful tussle, caught Selina's wandering hand to prevent further temptation. So, are you saying you re jealoux"
"You bet," she countered. "You're my husband. Regardless of what the agreement says, to everyone else and even in my own heart, you're mine this year. No wife likes her husband's attention to be divided" "Understood. In that case, you're not allowed to cozy up to other guys either. Fair's fair, Trevon responded,
With the terms of their deal updated, Selina decided to hit the restroom before heading over to Trevon's place to meet his parents, Trevon watched her leave, her fragrance lingering on his fingertips. Absently, he scratched his chin where Selina's playful touch had left its mark. Being with Selina brought Trevon a sense of ease he hadn't known outside of work or family. He never thought he could feel this comfortable around a woman,
The mere thought of Selina's stunning face made Trevon's heart race, and he couldn't help but feel excited. "Selina, I know you're kidding, but asking me not to look at other women... That actually makes me kind of happy," Trevon confessed, a hint of surprise in his voice at his own reaction.
He didn't quite understand this new feeling, but something had shifted within him. Watching Selina stand her ground against those people, seeing her identity being revealed, getting dressed up, and being known as "Trevon's wife Hearing her call him "honey-It all made the world seem brighter, warmer, and more radiant than ever before.
In the suburban area, Trevon pulled up with Selina at Samuel's home in their sleek Maybach. It was modest compared to Trevon's sprawling mountain estate back in the city center.
It was a surprise to anyone who knew the family that Samuel, the fourth Brady son and head of the Network Security Department in Clusia, would
choose such a simple, unpretentious place to live.
Just before getting out of the car, Selina turned to Trevon with a slightly concerned look. "Babe, I know it's a bit late to ask, but your family's easygoing, right?"
Trevon caught her glance, giving her hand a reassuring squeeze. "Feeling nervous?"
"It's just that meeting your dad and stepmom... it's complicated. If they don't take to me, can I just handle things my way?" She asked, her eyes wide and seemingly naïve,
The driver caught her words and quickly looked away, thinking he'd better act as if he hadn't heard a thing. The idea of Selina "handling" Trevon's parents was a conversation he decided he was better off staying out of. He had been with Trevon for years and had learned that sometimes, what he didn't know couldn't hurt him.
"Babe.
handle things however you see fit. Don't worry about my feelings. But considering they raised someone as spirited as Nora, I bet they'll take a liking to you, Trevon reassured Selina.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
Selina nodded in agreement. You have a point, and I'm glad to hear that. I can be myself later" Hand in hand, they stepped out of the Maybach and made their way to the villa's entrance.
"Selina!" Nora, already tipped off about Selina's arrival, was waiting at the door. She made a beeline for them as they approached Intent on giving Selina a hug, she tried to wedge herself between the couple, but Trevon stopped her. "Nora, can't you see I'm with Selina, hand in hand? Go find something else to do
"Of course. I saw itt Rad guy, Trevon! Why are you hekling Selina's hand: Don't think I forgot how you ditched me outside that restaurant and left with Selina that one time!" Nora said accusingly.
