The sunset glow spilled onto him, painting him in a soft golden hue that was gentle yet bright.
Eleanor stood in her wedding dress, the warm yellow light illuminating her and making the diamonds on the gown sparkle.
It was only then that the audience understood why the dress was hailed as a one-of-a-kind masterpiece.
It turned that, under the evening light, the dress radiated colors resembling a sea at sunset. It was breathtaking.
Eleanor was staring at her dress in awe when Bernard, impatient, hurried over to lead her up to the ship's top deck.
"What's the rush?" Eleanor asked.
Bernard, holding her hand and glancing down at her neck and chest, replied, "Guess?"
"To watch the sunset?" Eleanor guessed.
"To watch you," Bernard answered.
Eleanor was about to ask him what he meant when he suddenly swept her off her feet, wedding dress and all.
With practiced ease, Bernard carried her up to the fourth floor. He kicked open the closed door and quickly stepped inside.
Before Eleanor could take in the room, Bernard had already placed her on the bed.
He devoured her with his eyes for a few seconds before descending onto her with fervent kisses.
Eleanor pushed him off, saying, "I haven't removed my makeup or showered. Don't rush."
She hoped for some romance tonight to make some sweet memories. She didn't want to dive straight into sex like they usually did.
But Bernard removed her hand and held her wrists above her head.
Bernard glanced at her and asked, "What did you call me?"
Eleanor tilted her head at him and said, "Mr. Laurence."
Bernard let go of the ties.
He leaned down to gently touch her ear with his mouth. "Darling, I'll give you another chance; what should you call me now?"
His flirting skills were undoubtedly top-notch.
He gripped her chin, not allowing her to dodge. "What should you call me?"
After marriage, she should naturally address him as her husband. But for some reason, she felt extremely shy about calling him that directly.
"Sweetheart, call me 'husband'. Let me hear it."
