Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

She pushed Quill's shoulder with all her might and cried, "No!" They hadn't done it since they cback from the trip, nor had she imagined it ever since. Moreover, Quill always looked celibate. If she wasn't pregnant, she would have thought they had a platonic relationship.

Then again, Quill would kiss her and display sexual desires toward her.

However, he probably had his concerns, so he never took things too far.

Over time, Vera forgot about it, and so now that they were taking a step further, she becrather panicked.

After all, she had a bun in the oven.

After knowing she was pregnant, she had done a lot of research online. One of them was that pregnancy in the first trimester was rather unstable, so she had to refrain from having sex.

She hadn't taken it to heart when she read the article, but it suddenly popped up in her mind. Her pregnancy was still unstable. If they were really to do it, what was she to do if something bad happened?! However, Quill was oblivious to all of it and thought she was only shy, so he didn't stop. Seeing that they were closing the bedroom, Vera jumped out of his embrace.

Quill grabbed her wrist and asked in a hoarse voice, "What are you nervous about?" "I-I'm not nervous." "You're afraid then?" Quill stared at her, his gaze looking boundless like the sea.

"It's not that." Vera had no idea how to explain it to him. She just shook her head. "I just... It's a no!" "Weren't you the one who took the initiative when we were abroad?" Quill narrowed his eyes as he leaned in. As his breath brushed her face, he said, "Have you forgotten who was the one who tried to turnon with all her might?" Huh? His words jogged her memory. She blushed as the scenes played back in her mind, as clear as daylight. What on earth was she thinking? She couldn't believe how bold she had been that night.

"I don't remember," Vera denied shamelessly. Seeing how righteously she denied, Quill pinched her face and asked, "You really don't remember?" Vera nodded, "Yes, I don't remember a single thing." "Okay," Quill carried her in his arms once more. Startled, Vera instinctively wrapped her arms around her neck and exclaimed, "What are you doing? Didn't say that I don't remember? Putdown!" "Perfect. If we do it, you'll definitely be able to recall." Vera gasped, "Don't! I already told you, no. I'm having a cold now." He had already arrived at the bedroom, only inches away from the bed.

"Putdown! I'm serious!" However, she was still flung to the bed. Quill pressed her down, and pinned her hands above her head, then planted a kiss on her lips.

"I'm also recovering from a cold, so it's fine. Neither of us has to be worried." "No, no!" Vera pushed him and shook her head hard, "I mean it." Quill frowned slightly. He couldn't understand why she was so insistent. Even though he wanted to persist, the romantic atmosphere earlier was now ruined.

He no longer had the mood to continue. However, he wanted to know why she was so resistant.

If it was because of the cold, she was a little resistant at first, but she still gave in after that.

However, he couldn't understand why she was so resistant to this.

After thinking about it for a while, Quill could only think of one possibility.

He looked at Vera with a frown and only spoke after a long time.

"Why not? Was it because I hurt you that time?" Huh? Vera was still wondering what excuse she could use. Stumped, hearing that so suddenly, her face turned bright red.

Quill tried to ease the embarrassment he felt too. After all, this was an intimate topic. But, there were only two of them here, so he didn't hesitate to say it out loud.

They were to be together for the rest of their lives, so this might beca common conversation.

After he composed himself, he said, "I was drugged that time, so it was a little hard forto control myself. If you're scared, I'll be gentle this time." Vera almost choked, and her face grew even redder.

"What are you talking about?" "I'm serious," Quill lowered his head and kissed her chin, "This will only happen more often. Besides, I'm ready." "W-what?" What was he talking about? "Ritual." With that, Vera felt something cold on her finger. Stunned, she couldn't register what it was for a moment. She found it unbelievable and started at Quill, gobsmacked. "You... What did you put on my finger just now?" Quill smiled lightly; his gaze was like the abyss, surging with emotions.

"Why don't you take a look at it?" Vera didn't move. After a while, she said with a hollow smile, "You're not joking, are you?" "Hmm?" "I mean, I..." "Will you marry me?" Quill interrupted her. Tears

immediately welled up in her eyes as soon as he said so; she looked at him in disbelief Her heart began to beat wildly as she quavered, You... You said..." She drew her hand close and finally saw what was on it.

It was a diamond ring.

The ring fitted her finger perfectly, and the diamond was glittering brightly in the light.

Once Vera saw it, she could no longer hold back her tears.

"Why... You... So sudden..."

"Not at all. I prepared it after our trip. I only got it a few days ago. Lactually wanted to find the right tto give it to you." Quill stopped at that, but Vera knew

where he was going with it. He didn't expect her to celebrate his birthday, then the incident about his fiancee happened, nearly ruining their relationship. "But then again, why not now? Although it's not ceremonious, I'll make it up to you with the wedding and all." "Wedding?" Vera felt like she was in a dream. She would actually have a wedding with him. This was something unfathomable to her.

"No?" Quill chuckled and tried to hook her finger, "There's no going back anymore. You've already put the ring on." "Huh?" "Shall we hold a wedding ceremony or get registered first? Vera was flabbergasted.

Wait, this was progressing all too quickly. What the hell was going on?! Hadn't he wanted to have sex with her a minute ago? How did it suddenly turn into a proposal? X
