The Accidental Wife (Emily and Julian)

21

"This is your second time on the

motorbike, so please hold on tight, okay?" Julian told me for probably the second or third time. He placed the helmer over my head, and I watched him as he assessed my outfit. It was a cold night and he tried to convince me not ta Lake me with him, but 1 was not having "Julian, I'm alright. You don't need to be worried," I assured him. I was honestly more than excited. I wanted to see him race and discover that part of his life that his parents knew nothing about

I watched as he got on the motorbike, and 1 did that too. I wrapped my arms around his torso.

"Don't let go no matter what he told me.

"I won't," I replied and sightened my grip around him.

Despite how cold it was, I was over the moon as the cold breeze penetrated my thick jacket. I had always been a fan of adrenaline, so being behind my husband on a fast motorbike was the kind of activity that made my serotonin level increase "This is amazing!" I shouted as he drove off it felt like I was in a movie and having the time of my life.

"Just hold on tight, sunshine," he yelled through the air as he sped up. In just three months, my life had taken an unexpected turn. Chad never expected to be that happy with Julian, but here I was, bring happier than I had ever been in my entire life. I used to be very cautic letting my quand down. I found myself wanting to get closer to him. I wanted to know more about him and let him get to know me.

He told me it was a thirty minute ride, but it felt like five minutesProperty of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

Once he parked his motorbike, I got off and he did the same. I looked around me and saw many people around. I could recognize almost all of them. It really was a secret club for the elite.

"How was it?" Julian asked me as we both took off our helmen

"Amazing! I want to do this again I exclaimed with a huge grin on my face, making him laugh. He took me by surprise when he pulled me clove to him and kissed my lips.

We can do that whenever you want, sunshine," he said once we pulled away, making me blush. "You look extra gorgeous tonight, so would you do me a favor and stay with me! Because if somebody hits on you, I'm so going to rearrange their face."I laughed but nodded an "Julian, it's my first time to see you bringing somebody!" someone said with enthusiasm, making me look at him. It was Tanner Hemmings. He was Julian's best man. I knew that they were close, but I didn't know anything about the depth of their friendship, especially that Tanner left a week after our wedding and went to Spain. I heard that he had returned a few days ago.

"It's so good to see you, man!" Julian said as they both hugged each other. My husband then turned to me and gently pulled me towards them. "She caught me once and I ended up telling her about the club. She wanted to come and it's hard to say no to her "It's so good to see you, Emily," Tanner greeted me with a genuine smile. Did he know anything about my relationship with Julian! I silently hoped that Julian didn't badmouth me to him when he used to think that I was the devil in disguise "Thank you. Did you have fun in Spain?"

"Yes, but of course it would have been better if the workload wasn't that much. We need to go on a trip together if you guys don't mind," he suggested. "We will see." Julian replied.

We didn't go on a honeymoon, but I wanted to go on a nice vacation with him, I wanted to travel to all the places I had abrays wanted to visit with

him

"Do you plan on racing with her behind you?" 1 could see the sly smirk on Tanner's face.

"Hell to the no," my husband was quick to reject the idea.

"Why? I had fun on our way here. Looked at him.

"When I race, I drive way faster. I'm not putting you in danger." His protective side took over. However, I also realized that my protective side took over when he said that he drove fast. I didn't want him to be in danger either. I didn't want him to get hurt. "There's something you should know," Tanner addressed Julian. I could tell from the look on his face that whatever he had to say was not nice.

"What's wrong?" Julian frowned.

"Chester is here," he said. It was hard to prevent myself!

If from groaning. I didn't want to be in the same place as him. But did that mean that Tanner

knew all about our relationship?

Tanner knows everything, sunshine, Julian answered my thoughts.

I didn't know that Chester knew about that club.

Is Fiona with him" I couldn't help but ask.

"Yes." Tanner replied.

"Do you want to love!" Julian asked me, but I was quick to shake my head. I wasn't going to let Finna ruin my marriage, I was here to have fun with my husband

"No, why would I? I'm here to cheer for you while you race," I smiled at him

That's the spirit! Tanner gave us a thumbs up.

Julian took me with him when he went to sign his name up for tonight's race. I was fascinated by everything around me. I was ecstatic with the way Julian was introducing me to everybody. It made me feel that he was proud of me and hadn't felt like that ever since my mum's death.
