Chapter 76
They spent most of the time during the week in their room, or by the pool, they made love everywhere and anywhere, the first time they had made love by the pool, Arielle had been scared someone would walk in on them but he had assured her that won’t happen, after that, the pool became one of their favorite spots, especially during the cool evenings, the days flew by and before they knew it was their last day.
Arielle woke up alone that morning more like afternoon because it was past twelve already, anyway, it was the first time alone since they got there, she looked around the villa for her husband but he was no-where to be seen, she finally gave up looking for him and went back to their room only to realize he had left a note for her, she reprimanded herself for not seeing it earlier and panicking for nothing, she stared at what was written on the note and smiled.
“Don’t miss me too much, will be back before you know it, zolotse. Xoxo,”
The note read, he called her darling, she couldn’t help the smile that settled on her face when she read the note again, the man was a hopeless romantic whether he accepts it or not and she had a lot of proof, one full week here and he has been nothing but amazing, he kept to his words of nothing working while they were here, she had told him about her plans to go back to school and get a degree in business and he had given his approval instantly and even promised to help her with her studies, so far, he has been her knight in dark armor, he came into her life in the wrong ways and she had hated and fought him but now she realized, it wasn’t so bad after all. if she had known this is how it will turn out with them, maybe she would not have fought or resisted him, not like she regretted her actions though.
She waited for him to come back but he didn’t show up and she spent all afternoon on her own, she concluded that he might have gone out to have some fun on his own, she couldn’t blame him, everything they have done so far was things she had wanted to do, so she perfectly understood his need to have some alone time.
When it started getting dark, she took her phone and went over to sit by the pool ignoring the annoying voice in her head that kept suggesting that he might have ditched her and left on his own, that was impossible, she even checked to make sure his things were still in the room and they were there, yup, she checked because she had trust issues, her parent did ditch her so her fears were valid, the only difference is Luciano couldn’t ditch her, he paid so much for her, with that in mind, she let herself relax and just enjoy the cool evening air.
“What’s my wife doing here on her own?”
Luciano asked coming behind her, she looked up at him, she felt relief now that he was back, he had on only shorts, and his hair was pulled back.
“I thought you ran away on your own and left me here so I decided to enjoy myself before calling for help,”
She joked and he started laughing, another thing she has become addicted to, his rich laughter.
“Funny, so, what do you want to do on your last night here?”
He asked and she smiled even though she felt sad that it was really their last night, funny how she hadn’t wanted the honeymoon and now she felt sad it was ending.
“I want to spend the remaining of my time here in bed with my husband,”
She answered.
“You insatiable woman, we have been in bed for most of the time we were here, I thought I am the one who couldn’t get enough, turns out it was you all along,”
He teased.
“You can’t blame me, I have a very hot husband, and I can’t keep my hands off, do you know how tiring it was to go twenty-four years without knowing the intimate touch of anyone?”
She responded, of course she knew her lack of sexual life prior to Luciano wasn’t the reason she couldn’t have enough of him, it was more like it was because it was him.
“Glad to know I opened your eyes to a whole new world,”
He said as he sat on the seat next to her.
“So, if you don’t have anything specific in mind for tonight, would you mind going on a date with me?”
He asked.
“What? Is this not a date already? Feels like a week-long date to me,”
“It is, but I want our last night here to be even more special, so I had a little something prepared.”
He revealed.
“I don’t know what to say,”
She voiced.
“Say yes, and go get dressed,”This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.
He encouraged.
“Sure, what should I wear?”
She asked as she stood up from where she sat.
“Anything, it is going to be just me and you,”
he said and she nodded and went up to their shared room, she looked through the clothes he had bought for her and she settled for the purple strapless mini dress, she placed it on the bed and choose a pair of flats to go with it, she wasn’t a huge fan of heels, plus she hadn’t brought any with her, after picking out her clothes, she went to take a quick bath, before coming back to the room to get dressed, she met him there, he already changed into a plain white shirt and a pair of plain black trousers, she removed her towel and started getting dressed, heard his intake of breath and turned to him, he had his eyes on her.
