My Emotionless Goddess

Justin watched as the woman he adored most in this world took slow steps matching towards him. Despite the calm demeanour displayed on his face, he was trembling with nervousness. He secretly wiped his sweat but that action did not escape his Best man Ronald who was standing besides him.

” Calm down before you faint.” He was amused. Justin could only glare at Ronald for making fun of him. Here he was nervous and instead of getting comforted by his friend, he didn’t forget to tease him.

” Wait until you are in my situation.” Justin retorted, making Ronald shut up immediately. Justin swore to take his revenge in the future.

Time stands still

Beauty in all she is

I will be brave

Yes, she will hold his hand and walk bravely on this long journey of life.

I will not let anything take away

What’s standing in front of me

The man standing in front of the altar, waiting for her could only belong to her. She would brand his mine and together, they’ll live happily

Every breath

Every hour has come to this

One step closer

I have died everyday waiting for you

For twenty six years, she had waited for him. Waiting for him to locate her and take her home as his bride.

Darling don’t be afraid

I have loved you for a thousand years

I’ll love you for a thousand More

It was a promise she was making before God and the witnesses. To love only him for the rest of her life.

Step by step she walked and while Justin’s mind and heart were all jumpy, she was there… Standing before him.. looking at him as if he was the only person in this big world, and sure at that moment only Justin existed in Miranda’s world.

” You look beautiful today” After regaining his senses, Justin opened his mouth with difficulty and said. He felt like his brain was suddenly fried and couldn’t find the correct words to explain how beautiful she looked in white.

” Thank you.. you look dashing yourself.” Miranda replied, not forgetting to compliment him too with her reddening cheeks. The two shared a brief hug before the priest announced the commencement of the wedding ceremony.

Everybody settled and the priest read a sermon from the holy Bible about marriage. Now, the time of taking vows has come.

” Do you Justin Reign, take Miranda Sophia Reign as your lawful wedded wife. To love and to hold, in good times and in bad times. In sickness and in health until death separate you?”

” I do ” Justin replied almost immediately making the crowd burst into laughter followed by thunderous claps.

” Do you Miranda Sophia Reign, take Justin Reign as your lawful wedded husband. To love and to hold, in good times and in bad times. In sickness and in health until death separate you?”

” I do.” Miranda replied with a smile and the sounds of claps and ladies ululating could be heard.

” It’s time to exchange rings.” The priest announced.

Taking Miranda’s hand, Justin said.

” I give you this ring, as a symbol of undying love and commitment. From today, I will respect, love and honour you as my wife.” Then he slid the ring on Miranda’s ring finger and kissed it afterwards making the crowd cheer on loudly.

” Take this ring, as a symbol of my love and submission to you. From today onwards, I will Love, respect and honour you as my husband.” Miranda said, repeating what Justin did to her ring finger.

” By the power infested in me by the laws of this state, I pronounce you husband and wife.” The priest said with a smile.

” You may now….” Before he could complete the sentence, Justin had already unveiled his bride and captured her lips with his.

Just at that moment, the first ray of the sun shone reflecting on the couple that was kissing without any care in the world. They sealed their promises with the sun as their witness.

The priest could only shake his head after witnessing the couple’s impatience. But he wasn’t offended, on the contrary he was happy. He could see a happy future for the newlyweds.

After the couple separated, Justin immediately picked Miranda princess style making her gasp out loud.

” Hubby, where are you taking me?” Miranda asked since Justin was walking away from the wedding venue.

” To our wedding night ofcourse.” He replied as if it was the most normal thing to do.

” But we haven’t attended the reception yet.” Miranda inquired. It was custom that after a wedding, the reception followed. So how could he completely ignore the tradition? Besides, what wedding night? It was already morning and night wouldn’t come until a few hours later.

” Oh!” Justin put her down with a downcasted expression on his face. He was getting impatient already and wanted their honeymoon to happen as soon as possible.

The couple did not stay for long at the reception. After toasting to a few of the important invited guests, they left, leaving behind the others to attend to the guests.

Boarding a private jet that belonged to the Lambert group, they left the Beach.

” Where are we going?” Miranda asked, curious. Justin had been discreet about everything. She wasn’t aware of the wedding venue until she saw it, but she had to admit that his preparations came as a surprise for her, a pleasant surprise.

“You’ll find out when we get there. For now you should rest.” Justin said, pulling her into his arms. Miranda gave up on fishing information from him, she was sure he wouldn’t spill the beans so she decided to take his advice and rest. She didn’t get enough sleep last night and she could really use a few minutes of rest to replenish her energy.

Two hours later, the jet finally descended to what looked like the middle of a forest.

Looking around, Miranda was confused as to why they were landing in the middle of nowhere.

” What is this place Justin?” Miranda couldn’t help but ask.

” Don’t worry, it’s safe here. I discovered this place some years ago when we were ambushed and I accidentally landed here with my parachute. I stayed here for a week. After I was rescued , I sought the owner of the place and bought it. I also built a house here so we will have a roof over our heads.” Justin explained. This place was once his safe haven and after staying here for a week, he came to love the place.

” Oh!” Miranda replied. She was fine with anything as long as she didn’t encounter snakes while moving around. That was her biggest nemesis. The only thing she could never stand.

” Don’t worry, there aren’t any snakes around here.” As if sensing her fears, Justin assured her.

The plane was gone after dropping them off with their luggage. A maid approached them and helped them carry their stuff to the house.

Miranda was expecting to see a mediocre house carelessly erected but what she saw made her fall in love instantly. The house was beyond her imagination. It was a glass house that resembled a dome. A bridge separated the forest with a big clearance that was occupied by nothing but pure flowers. The wind blowing brought about a refreshing set of flowers. Miranda could see a large extension of what looked like… Blue roses???

” Are those Blue roses?”Miranda asked, amazed. Even if she understood little about flowers, she knew that blue roses were rare and that’s because they were selective and required a lot of attention and care. That’s why people abandoned them and concentrated on growing the other type of flowers

” Yeah, do you like them? Justin inquired tenderly, seeing the amazed expression on his wife’s face. He was happy that she liked what he prepared for her.

” Of course, they look so beautiful. The house is beautiful too. I think everything here looks beautiful.” Miranda gave her honest answer.

” I’m glad you like it. I prepared it as my wedding gift to you. I couldn’t think of anything better, so I did this.” Justin explained remorsefully. He wanted to give her the best but couldn’t think of anything at the moment. He ended up transferring the deed to this piece of land to her as her wedding gift. At first, he was afraid she wouldn’t like it, afterall she was a woman who grew up with everything at hand. She was also the queen of a State, he was afraid his gift would be mediocre. But since she confirmed to like it, he was very happy.

” Come, let’s head in. I know you must be hungry, I’ll cook something for you.” Justin said, taking her hand and leading her inside.
