Married at First Sight novel (Serenity and Zachary York)

Chapter 107

Chapter 107
Tensing his facial muscles, Zachary gave Serenity a warning look.
“Mr. York.” Serenity asked him, “Can I kiss you?”
Zachary was stumped.
Had she no shame?
She went as far as to ask a man this kind of question.
“Your smile is gorgeous. It took my breath away. I just want to hold you and have my way with you.”
“Serenity, you sure have the cheek.”
“My cheeks are right here.”
Serenity smacked her face with a smile as Zachary winced.
 
“I only said that because we‘re married. I mean, we‘re married in the eyes of the law, so it‘s not a crime to kiss you.”
With Zachary pulling back a few steps, Serenity burst out laughing at his flight instincts.
Zachary flew off the handle.
Well, she was to be blamed for his reaction. The last time she even touched his face out of nowhere.
As her roars of laughter tipped him over the edge, Zachary closed in suddenly and grabbed the chuckling girl to pull her into his arms. Zachary dipped his head forward and sealed her lips, swallowing her laughter altogether. Serenity‘s giggles ended abruptly.
Taken aback, Serenity widened her eyes and stared at the magnified face.
She only poked fun at him because his smile was beautiful. She enjoyed teasing him since, in terms of romantic intimacy between a man and a woman, he was more of a blank slate than she was. It never occurred to her that Zachary would one–up her.
He put her words into action and kissed her.
Zachary merely pressed his lips against hers to stop the aggravating giggles. Without exploring her lips for a taste, Zachary released his hold and shoved her out of his embrace.
Curling his finger, he flicked her on the forehead. Serenity cried out in pain.
“That‘s what you get for acting smug,” Zachary said in a raspy voice,
He then, like nothing ever happened, sat down at the table and calmly ate his breakfast.
Serenity was speechless.
Running her fingers against her lips, Serenity stared at her husband who started on breakfast with a stoic expression. Who was playing who? So, who won?
It was clear that she lost.
That was quite a scare for Serenity.
Having snatched a last–minute victory, Zachary was feeling as cheery as the sun in the sky. He relished his meal.
In order to beat the game of love, shamelessness is all that mattered.
He got her good because she was not up to his level.
Since Serenity did not have the guts to even make a comeback with another kiss, she bashfully took a seat opposite him while glaring at the man.
Zachary found it hilarious.
He thought Serenity had more experience than him and would show him the ropes. It turned out that she was no better than he was.
On the day they signed the papers, Serenity mentioned that she had a relationship in the past, but that was eight years ago. It must be her first love. First love usually happened at the age when everything was pure and innocent.
In other words, Serenity, like him, was a blank sheet of
paper.
“Why did you prepare such a feast today? Is it to thank me for yesterday?”
“Yes, Captain Obvious.”
Zachary gleefully filled his plate with food and said, “I was helping you and myself. You‘re my wife no matter what. It wouldn‘t look good on me if anything were to happen to you. Of course, I‘m glad you‘re grateful for it. I enjoyed today‘s breakfast.”
