“District 0, the result of a program called Project: Eden by the Government, has been fully recognized as one of the Districts of the world. It will continue to be autonomous from the rest of the world…however, the broadcasts on the activities of the citizens will cease and people may travel to the District, for so long as they possess the proper permission from the Government.
Those originally included in the Project: Eden Project will be fully recognized as citizens of District 0 and are free to choose to return to their lives before the program or to stay in District 0.
For those who wish to become citizens of the newly established District, the Government-”
Malik turns away from the aether transmission from that point.
He would never have thought that District 0 would be recognized as one of the Districts of the World…but evidently, all the hard work by the District 0 Representatives and its citizens had paid off.
It had been 2 years since the start of the program. By this time, many changes and developments have been made. The Government allowed the use of money and expanded the land area so that more buildings could be built. The additional structures included a school, a clinic, a disaster center (in case of any emergencies, such as fires, earthquakes, etc.), a church, a public park and a farm with more animals and crops.
Being as self-reliant as they had been, the citizens involved themselves in these developments, though this was not done without the guidance of their representatives.
With the final barrier of outside contact gone, District 0 could now interact with the world through trade and tourism - something that the Government seemed too keen on when the representatives presented the idea.
All in all, it had been a good two years.
And for that day…it was going to get even better for him.
Malik smiled to himself as he picked up the white coat that completed his ensemble. With one last look at himself in the mirror, he left for the church.
He didn’t want to be late for his own wedding, after all.
-----
Despite it being the wedding of one of the distinguished representatives of District 0, the event itself was relatively simple and intimate.
Daphne made a beautiful maid of honor and Felix and Ves’s son was adorable the ring bearer.
The ceremony went off with few problems and everyone was overwhelmed by how beautiful Cass looked in her wedding dress.
Kaliska dragged a reluctant Marco to attend, but they disappeared soon after it was over - most said that they were headed to the direction of the barn.
Marid and Jadyn wished the couple the best as they followed suit with their exit - hands intertwined.
The day had been good…
-----
…but the night would be better. Or so they’d realize.
From the church, Malik carried Cass in the typical bridal style over to their two-storey house.
Since there were on-going expansions to the public facilities, the citizens of the district also saw to it that they’d expand the residential area as well. As such, each resident (or couple or family, whichever the case may be) had their own house to themselves.
Cass had moved in with Malik roughly a month before their wedding, to get used to married life together. They slept in separate rooms though, decided upon mutual agreement…
…until that night.
It was special after all.
The former soldier carried his bride to the bedroom that they’d share, decorated pleasantly and giving the feeling of returning home.
Cass’ eyes focused on only one thing though that made her cheeks turn red - the double bed. This was the night she and Malik would…
Her blush intensified and she tensed in Malik’s arms. She glanced up at him, and he looks to be a picture of normalcy. Her attention turned back to the bed.
Was she the only one fazed by all of this?
-----
Malik was nervous as he lowered his bride down onto the bed that they’d soon be familiar with for the night. He didn’t usually feel nervous for anything though, especially not matters of politics and bettering the District…but tonight was an exception. It was something very personal for him and Cass and involved intimacy with another person, after all. Both were not his strong points.
As soon as she was on the bed and her eyes were on him, his nervousness disappeared for an instant. He took the liberty of really looking at how his bride looked…
…that he almost missed it when she started to gingerly take her gown off with a beet red face.
The sound of the zipper going down.
The sight of her slipping out of the sleeves - one sleeve, then two.
The bodice of the innocent white dress lowering, to reveal the lacy white secret that lay underneath.
Her hair was still in an up-do, crowned by rhinestones that made her look like an angel though…
…the entire picture of itself was equally sinful and tempting.
-----
Cass had never blushed harder in her life than in that moment. She was revealing herself to Malik, her husband, she reminded herself…
…and this was only going to be the start of a night of many firsts. The thought made her inwardly gulp in nervousness.
She looked at his face, searching for a reaction to what she had been doing, or maybe to what she had been wearing. Her choice of undergarments was care of the maid of honor and mother of the ring bearer. They said that it would be impossible for Malik to resist her if she were wearing them, but she had her reservations.
He said nothing and showed nothing…but he did bring their lips together in a kiss.
A gentle one - almost as if he sensed her fear and was trying to calm her. It succeeded.
He gave her another one, just as gentle. Then another, and another…
The next thing she knew, her arms were around his neck, his arms were around her torso, and their tongues engaged in an intimate dance in her mouth.
He gently pushed her back onto the bed, and hovered on top of her, taking a few moments to look at her yet again. His eyes on her made Cass feel conscious of her appearance yet again…
…but that was gone when the kissing started up again.
With his lips not leaving hers, he pushed down the dress that gathered around her waist. It pooled in the area by her feet at the side of the bed.
Cass broke the kiss when she felt air hit her bare legs. Her face was flushed and she looked like she was trying to catch her breath from the kisses. Her hands moved to futilely cover her torso and her lower half, her eyes locking onto Malik’s.
“…I don’t think it’s fair that I’m the only one like this, Malik…”
He chuckled. That’ll soon be remedied, he thought, as he moved to take off his coat…
…then his vest…
…then his tie…
…then his white shirt…
…then his pants.
…leaving Cass with a wonderful view of his toned body.
It had been years since he stopped being a soldier, but thankfully, sparring sessions with Felix had kept her now-husband’s body toned and rippling with chiselled muscles.
She remembered her conversation with Leanne in the bath about those muscles a few years prior - to think that she’d actually be seeing them and be able to feel them now. The thought made her blush darken.
With him being as bare as she was, their lips met halfway and their intense kisses started up again.
Hands became curious and started to roam. She found his body hard and ripped in all the right places. He found her soft and smooth.
His hands found the strap of the chemise she wore, pushing it down and off her shoulder. He did the same to the other strap. The chemise slipped down her torso, and stayed by her waist, revealing her supple yet soft breasts.
Malik’s lips trailed down to her neck, sucking a bit at the junction between her neck and her shoulder…
…Cass mewled at this action, fingers gripping his hair…
…then he trailed kisses down until he reached one of her breasts.
He sought the center, the hard nub that could bring any woman pleasure, and encased his mouth around it, causing a loud moan from Cass. As his mouth was occupied, one of his hands fondled the other breast, running his finger over the nipple…
…Cass, by this time, couldn’t supress her moans as they slipped out of her mouth, one after the other.
After a few moments, Malik’s mouth switched to give the other breast attention, and his hand fondled the one he just left. Cass gripped his head tighter, pleasure overwhelming her and…
...her most intimate portion becoming all the more moist.
After a while, Malik’s mouth trailed upward again to meet Cass’ lips, kisses becoming more passionate comparing to when they started. Their bodies pressed against each other - skin meeting skin, heat radiating from each other.
Malik’s hand trailed downward…
…to Cass’ most intimate area.
Her eyes widened at the touch of his finger and let out a loud moan. He found it was quite wet. She found that the touch felt really good.
At the sound of her in pleasure, Malik became braver with his actions…
…and brushed by a small bump in her intimate area. This made the moans pour from her mouth nonstop. The pleasure was becoming overwhelming…
…and she was feeling something building up in her core.
“…M-Malik, I can’t…” she said in a breathy and whiny voice that was unlike her usual. Cass almost didn’t think that it came from her lips.
From the small clump of nerves, Malik moved backwards…
…and allowed his finger to trace her moist entrance…
…before letting the tip of his finger tentatively enter it.
Cass’s entire body responded to the intrusion, tensing with her hands gripping Malik even tighter.
He removed the finger from the cavern…
…only to bring it in again, deeper…
….and repeating the process again and again.
He was going to make sure that he wouldn’t hurt her, as Stern advised. It was the last thing he wanted to do to his newly wedded wife, so he had to make sure that she was ready for him.
Cass, in the meantime, was close to being driven wild with all the new sensations, especially by the intrusion of Malik’s finger into one of her holes. It felt…invasive and foreign at first. But then, after a while, it became pleasant…
…pleasurable, even.
When Malik felt the tension of the walls gripping his finger lessen, he repeated the process with a second finger…
…and then a third, after a while…
…where Cass found it harder to adjust. With each finger added, she felt like it was stretching her inside, becoming painful. It took a bit longer for her to get used to the sensations and feel pleasure from it…
…but sure enough, she was reduced to a puddle of moans once again, and practically riding his fingers for more contact.
Once Malik thought that she was ready and prepped enough…
…he removed his fingers from her entrance…
…eliciting a whine from Cass, before she went into a series of breathless pants…
…and leaned over her to position himself between her legs.
Her arms were around him, her eyes locked onto his.
I love you. I trust you.
I love you. I won’t hurt you.
Her pants died down…
…and he teased his erect member by her hole.
“M-Malik, p-please…” she pleaded. She didn’t need to wait long though…
…for him to ease the head into her.
She released a breathy moan…
…and he took it as a cue to go in deeper…
…and deeper...
…until she sheathed his entire length.
The preparation helped. It didn’t hurt as Cass thought it would, but her inner walls still felt uncomfortably stretched by Malik’s erection, that tears gathered at the side of her eyes and her nails dug into his back.
“M-Malik…” she said into his ear. “…hurts…”
“I’ll be gentle, Cass,” he told her in turn. “Give yourself time to adjust.”
He stayed inside her, unmoving…
…until he felt the tension lessen. When it did…
…he took It as his cue to move himself out of her…
… to piston back in.
Malik repeated the movement several times over, and Cass’ moans seemed to grow in volume and urgency as the moments passed. With her tightness and the intimacy between them, he couldn’t supress joining her sounds with his own groans.
His lips found hers, and tongues resumed their dance.
With the actions increasing pace, it wasn’t long before Cass felt an overwhelming heat at her core.
“Malik, I-I’m…” she started to say, but felt that she couldn’t finish before an intense wave of heat exploded from her core.
She screamed in pleasure…
…and her walls tightened around Malik, who groaned…
…as he also reached completion and released his seed inside Cass.
The two of them fell onto the bed, panting and breathless. Malik rested on his elbows so as to not burden the girl beneath him with his weight, but allowed his head to rest in the area between her shoulder and her breast.
They were both tired…and even if it was just one time - their first time together, no less - they were well-spent.
It was Malik who recovered first, being used to physical activities. He moved Cass so that she was properly on the bed (though she gave a tired whine at the loss of the soft bed from underneath her form) and placed a blanket around the both of them.
Cass snuggled up to Malik once he was beside her, and he placed his arms around her, bringing her closer to his chest.
This was going to be the start to their life together…
…and he was certain that that day would be one of the best of his life.
