Matthew's eyes twinkled as he stared at Lucy's shocked face. He reminded her softly, "You're my wife now, so it's perfectly normal for us to hold hands."

Lucy still looked reluctant. "But we don't even know each other."

He was not fazed by her answer at all. Instead, he smiled and said, "We'll get to know each other over time. Relax, I'll court you and show you what love is. You're the first woman I've ever pursued!" Truthfully speaking, he was not sure how to court a woman, let alone know what love felt like. His tone of speech was arrogant, but for some reason, it provided comfort to Lucy.

"You've never pursued a woman before?"

"You're the first and the last!"
