to keep a close eye on her to assure that her pleasure remained his alone, and if she ever deceived him she would pay greatly. He was most certainly not his Father. He would never turn a blind eye to infidelity and God help her if she ever crossed that line.
    Salvador traced his finger along the satin skin of her bare thigh. He wanted to lift his night shirt and see more of her skin, but given that the priest was due to arrive soon; he stuffed down his lust for her and decided to wait until she was truly his. Stifling the urge to lean over and taste her skin, if he wasn’t careful he would be exchanging his vows with a hard on of steel. In a few short hours she would be his, not only on paper but in the eyes of God. Then he would take her and claim her as no man had ever claimed her before. He was determined to have the family that he always wanted. She would bare his children and would be the wife that his Mother should have been to his Father. He would make her love and crave him and he would cherish her for it. But he knew he had a long way to go before that would happen and refused to compromise in the meantime. He was the man of the house, the head of his family and her protector and provider. He would not allow her to endanger herself just to spare her feelings like some other husbands that he knew. He would be strict with her when it mattered, but at the same time, he refused to crush her spirit. She would know when she crossed the line and he would discipline her when needed. It was his responsibility to see to her every need and assure her happiness - he looked forward to playing that role. He needed this so badly. He didn’t realize just how badly until he laid down last night with her cradled safely in his arms. But as badly as he needed her, he needed her to need him too.

    Her eyes shot open and then narrowed into slits as she focused them on him. He internally chuckled to himself and mustered up all his willpower not to smirk, which he knew would only provoke her.
    “ You!” she grumbled out as she rolled away from him and managed to maneuver herself off the bed to stand, her feet slightly apart and her hands on her hips. With the window behind her illuminating her shapely body, he felt himself harden once again and involuntarily gave out a groan.
    In all her innocence, she mistook that groan as him accepting that he was indeed in trouble, rather than holding back the incredible lust that almost drove him to take her right there and then.
    “ That’s right! I’m mad at you!” She spat out in a rage that didn’t quite match her tone, due to her grogginess. He supposed it was the thought that counts.
    “ How dare you discard my entire wardrobe without my consent!”
    At that, the knock on the door provided him with a safe response.
    “ Speaking of, your new wardrobe has arrived.” He stated with only a bit of a smirk. “Now get behind the screen Katherine.”
    She opened her mouth to no doubt argue with him, when her face suddenly paled and her body went ridged. She shut her mouth, scratched her head and scowled as she disappeared behind the screen, remembering her scene from that morning no doubt.
    He walked over to the door and allowed the servants to bring in the few outfits that he had purchased for her. She could fuss all she wanted about not wanting to dress up for him, but in truth, he had personally hand picked every item and knew he would be pleasantly pleased with whatever she chose to wear.
