Marriage and Annulment

We found Mitch’s mother with a blanket and a pillow as we entered the house.

“Mitch, please put it in your room so Zander can sleep there, and then you can sleep in the other room, next to your nephews,” Mitch’s mother said.

Mitch and I exchanged glances. We walked to Mitch’s room, where she grabbed the blanket and pillow from her mother.

“I told you we weren’t supposed to sleep in one bed tonight,” Mitch chuckled.

I kissed him on the lips for a long time when we entered.

“What is it, Zander? Just let me go,” Mitch said, smiling.

I’m cracking up.

“OK, go to sleep. It’s too embarrassing if they’re all asleep, and then we’ll talk more,” I said.

“All right, good night,” Mitch said as she exited the room.

I closed my eyes and lay down on the bed.

I kissed him on the lips for a long time when we entered.

“What is it, Zander? Just let me go,” Mitch said, smiling.

I’m cracking up.

“OK, go to sleep. It’s too embarrassing if they’re all asleep, and then we’ll talk more,” I said.

“All right, good night,” Mitch said as she exited the room.

I closed my eyes and lay down on the bed.

I once mentioned Calvin to Uncle.

Uncle Conrad had gone, leaving Duke and me alone.

“Hi, Duke, I thought you were going to come home,” I said as I sat on the couch.

“Today I’m going home; I brought my own car, so the trip will be easy; I’m here to invite you to my birthday; if you just want to come along, that’s fine.”

“Sure, are we leaving right now?” I inquire.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Duke gave a nod.

“Wait a minute, I’ll just put on some clothes.”

I went into my bedroom and changed my clothes. Genie walked in.

“Where are you going, Miss?” he inquired.

“In Duke’s province, please put my clothes in my Genie backpack. You’ll look after the company. Uncle Conrad and Randolf are here,” I said.

“Indeed, miss.”

Genie was carrying my backpack as I left. Duke kidnapped her. I also bid the other girls farewell.

I climbed into Duke’s car. I sat next to him in the front seat. Before I buckled my seatbelt, I put on my hoodie. We were on the plane in half an hour. Duke’s province is also a long distance away. Because I’m tired, I’m yawning.

“First, Zaneska, take a nap so you can sleep at least a little,” Duke advised.

“Are you sure?” I’ll ask. 

“By the way, isn’t it dangerous for a gabe to travel to your province?”

“Of course not, and as you can see, we’ve got a lot of cars on the road today,” Duke replied.

“I’ll sleep first, Duke,” I said.

“You certainly can.”

I shut my eyes. I’m not sure how many hours I slept, but I awoke to Duke shaking my shoulder.

“Come down, Zaneska, we’re here,” Duke said.

When I opened my eyes, I saw that we had come to a halt in front of the four-story house. When I got out of the car, I noticed a woman standing near the gate, staring at me. Duke and I made our approach.

“Sammy, this is Zaneska Vergara, one of our relatives,” Duke said.

“Hello, good evening,” I said with a smile.

“Good evening, too; I recognize you, and I’m delighted to meet you in person,” Sammy said, smiling.

“Really? Me too,” I replied.

When Duke looked at Sammy, he frowned.

“Where did you meet him?” Duke inquired.

“Actually, I saw him on social media, as you know, so don’t ask me where,” Sammy explained.

We were all laughing. And then we went inside.

“You know, Zaneska, my grandmother was overjoyed when she found out I included you, and I had already mentioned you to her,” Duke explained.

“Really? Where are they now?” I’ll inquire.

Duke replied, “In the mansion.”

“Can I sleep, Duke? I was so tired on our trip,” I asked.

“Sure, come on in; I’ll meet you in the guest room.”

I took Duke’s lead.

“Come in, Zaneska, and rest.”

“Thank you very much, Duke.”

I changed into a new dress after Duke left. And I lay down on the bed, closing my eyes.

I got up early the next day. I walked out of the room. And then I discovered Duke in the living room. He changed his clothes and took a bath.

“Hello, Zaneska, and thank you for being awake,” Duke said.

“Why?” I’ll inquire.

“I would have taken you to my girlfriend’s house,” he explained.

“Sure, wait a minute; I’ll just get dressed and eat; you’ll feed me first before you take me with you,” I complained.

“Sure, I’m already cooking; I’ll prepare you while you take a bath,” Duke replied.

“By the way, where is Sammy?” I’ll inquire.

“She’s at work; she left early, and she told me she wanted me to feed you first.”

“Ah, I see.”

I returned to the guest room. And took a bath. I went back out and into the living room five minutes later.

Someone has made me some food. I approached and sat down to eat as well. Because I had the impression that I was hungry last night.

I was in Duke’s car, driving to his girlfriend’s house, half an hour later.
