Chasing After My Wife

Gabriel heard what she said but he didn't know what she meant by that statement. He continued to speak with Valkyrie throwing glances at her from time to time. She was just sitting beside him in silent but her mind was wandering somewhere else.     

After taking a few minutes of rest, Five Michael called Jillyanna and Travis to change their clothes.     

"I'll come and change with my wife." Travis informed him shortly. He didn't want anyone to see his wife's body other than him.     

Five didn't mind at all. They were husband and wife so it wasn't really an issue. He handed the white dress to Travis as well as the white suit.     

They got inside the changing room and Travis had to undress her so that she wouldn't have to bend herself.     

"I haven't seen the whole gown but I can see that it is really pretty." she commented while raising her hands over her head to remove the clothes.     

"A beautiful gown is for a beautiful bride. But my bride is more beautiful than this gown." retorted, clearly gaining brownie points from her. He unzipped the back of the dress and let her stepped inside before pulling it up on her body.     

The off-shoulder-ecru-colored gown in French lace, studded with Swarovski crystals and pearls, and with a ball skirt with cathedral train, perfectly fits Jillyanna's temperament. There was a lot of space on her front side to make sure that they can make adjustment for her baby bump.     

Travis zipped up the gown at the back before changing to his wedding suit as well. Jillyanna helped him with his necktie and cufflinks to make sure that he looked great.     

After making sure that they were all set, the two of them went out. Everyone had their eyes on them. Nobody spoke or make comment. They were all speechless.     

"Uhh..Does it look good on me or not?" Jillyanna asked hesitantly, pulling them back to reality.     

"Your husband does have eyes for a beautiful gown that would perfectly match with you." Five Michael stated. "Come here for a sec."     

He walked towards another side of the room and opened the floor-to-ceiling glass window. A wide terrace with beautiful flowers greeted them. In front was another pond of koi fish and a tall flame tree with its lush orange-colored flowers.     

"Let me get a camera and take a picture of you." Five Michael winked his eyes and ran back to the sofa to get his phone. Everyone was doing the same thing as him. They were planning to take photos of Jillyanna.     

Jillyanna was standing in front of Travis. Her right hand was placed on his chest while she leaned her head on him. Travis was holding her waist and kept his eyes on her.     

"The epitome of perfect couple." Riley mumbled while watching her sister and brother-in-law.     

Five Michael got back and asked them to do this pose or that, and got several pictures. He showed them to Jillyanna and Travis. "Do you like it?"     

Earlier, when she changed into the gown, she didn't see it clearly since it was Travis who put it on for her. She was also busy helping him so she didn't get the chance to appreciate the gown.     

Now that she was looking at her own photos, she couldn't help her mouth from gaping wide open. Beautiful is an understatement to use for such an amazing and breath-taking gown. She didn't want to think about the cost at all. Surely, it costs millions.     

"I don't want to take it off." Jillyanna commented making everyone laugh. "It's really beautiful."     

"Thanks to your demanding husband, I get to design something extravagant."     

"Is that a compliment or a complaint?" Travis questioned with his raised brow.     

"You can take both." Five Michael retorted. "Do you want a copy of these pictures? Can I use you as a model for this design?"     

"Ask him." Jillyanna pointed her finger towards her husband. Basically, he was managing her life to make sure that she wasn't doing anything reckless or too much for her health.     

Five wasn't able to ask his question yet Travis already shook his head. "You can use these pictures but she can't model for you. These pictures should be enough. Aside from that, the design isn't solely yours so you can't sell the same gown to anyone else. This is exclusively made for my wife."     

"I know that." Five Michael waved his hand. "Don't worry, I won't let anyone have this design."     

"Okay. Check any adjustment so that my wife can rest. She must not stand for a long time."     

As caring and as kind as he was to his wife, he was rather cold and indifferent to anyone who might cause any harm to her. Even standing to take adjustments was counted as a harmful matter to her. He was really over-protective.     

"Go and sit over there for awhile." Jillyanna told him so that he will stop worrying. "If I get tired, I'll let you know."     

"Promise?"     

"Promise." Jillyanna firmly spoke.     

Travis sat on a couch where he can see her with clear view. There wasn't anything wrong with his suit so he didn't need any adjustment. Though he could already change his clothes, he waited for her to finish the fitting.     

Five Michael took adjustments on her waistline to make sure that the gown won't press too much on her baby bump. Despite her bulging baby bump, Jillyanna still exuded the sexiness of a woman.     

"You are the only pregnant woman I know who still looked beautiful in her wedding dress even with a baby bump." Five Michael expressed while writing some notes on his paper. He also checked her back to make sure that there wasn't much skin exposed.     

"Thank you. I didn't know that he'd put so much effort into this wedding."     

"Your wedding has been put off for a while now. He must be working so much to make it up to you. I can see his overflowing love whenever he looks at you."     

"He is the only man who can love a flawed person like me."
