CHAPTER 77The hours passed in blissful solitude, my mind absorbed in the pages of the book, the words and pictures burning into my soul. But as the sun began its descent, casting a warm glow through the window, I heard the familiar sound of the room door opening. Alexander had returned home.He made his presence known with a gentle kiss on my forehead, his touch imbued with love and tenderness. I smiled up at him, basking in the warmth of his affection. The worries and stresses of the day seemed to melt away in his presence.I couldn't hold myself back and rushed to ask questions. "Alexander, why didn't you tell me we had been invited to an art charity auction event?""What Charity event?" He asked confused. "I found the invite in an envelope at the work table." I explained. A look of surprise crossed his face, followed by a sheepish expression. "Actually, I completely forgot to open it. It must still be downstairs."A mischievous glint shone in my eyes.
Chapter 78The smell of coffee was beginning to feel unappealing as I was getting way too used to it in the mornings. Alexander stood by the counter, a smile playing on his lips. His eyes twinkled with excitement, and I couldn't help but feel my heart skip a beat."Good morning, Emma," he greeted, leaning in to give me a gentle kiss on the cheek. "I have something important to tell you."I raised an eyebrow, curious. "What is it?"Alexander's smile widened. "We're going on a small vacation."I couldn't hide my excitement. "That sounds amazing! When are we leaving and to where?""Next week," he replied. "Which is why I've decided to take a few days off from work. I want us to make the most of our time together."A mix of emotions washed over me. I was thrilled at the prospect of spending quality time with Alexander, but at the same time, a pang of guilt surfaced. My mind raced with thoughts of the workload Alexander would be leaving behind."What's wrong?"
CHAPTER 79With the charity auction still a few days away, Alexander and I had more than enough time for ourselves, and Alexander promised that we'll have a great time here in Brooklyn. We'll go shopping and exploring and I couldn't wait for it.The first morning, we woke up early, ready to face Brooklyn and it's culture. We left the hotel room early too and came out to the open bustling streets of Brooklyn.Our first stop was a charming café nestled in a quaint neighborhood. The aroma of freshly brewed coffee filled the air as we savored our morning cup, there we made a simple plan of what to do next and after that and I took a lot of pictures to savor the moment forever.Energized and ready for the next stop, we set off to explore the city's iconic landmarks. We wandered through narrow alleys adorned with colorful murals, capturing snapshots of the vibrant street art that told stories of the city's rich history and spirit.In the afternoon, we found our
Chapter 80Next, I gestured to the dove gracefully perched on an olive tree branch. "The dove represents peace, a universal symbol of harmony and tranquility. The olive tree branch signifies unity, reminding us of the importance of coming together to build a better world."As my gaze swept over the painting, I focused on the vibrant flowers blooming around the baby and dove. "The flowers represent beauty and perfection, reminding us to find joy in the simple things and appreciate the beauty that surrounds us."Finally, I traced my finger along the red thread that wove its way through the painting. "This red thread symbolizes world peace, connecting us all—every individual, every nation—in a shared destiny. It reminds us that our actions and choices have the power to shape a better future for generations to come."The room fell into a momentary silence as the audience absorbed the depth of my words, the emotions conveyed through my art. Then, applause erupt
Chapter 81He inserted his key card into the slot, and with a click, the door unlocked. We stepped into the living room, and I immediately walked towards the bed."I could use a bath," I admitted, exhaustion weighing heavily on my voice. The strain of the evening had taken its toll on me, and the thought of soaking in warm water was incredibly tempting.Alexander's eyes softened with concern. "Let me help you, Emma," he offered, his voice tender and sincere. "Why?" I asked in confusion.Well, what if you slip. I'm worry about you slipping and falling. You're carrying our child, after all."I blushed, feeling a mixture of shyness and amusement. "Alexander, I'm carrying a baby but I'm not the actual baby," I replied, my voice teasing. "Besides, the bathroom floor is anti-slip. I promise I'll be careful."He hesitated for a moment, his concern etched across his face. "I know, my love, but accidents can happen. Please, let me take care of you please Em."Unab
Chapter 82I couldn't resist and turned to look at him staring back at me with a smile on his beautiful, handsome face. The genuine smile on his face was both unique and captivating all at the same time.I gazed at his still wet hair and studied him with eyes glowing with desire. "Don't look at me like that." He warned. These days I have been more craving, whether it was food or sex. I had never come at him like that before, without shying away and I'm sure he wondered what exactly had changed."Are you tired?" I asked playing innocent as I hoped for an answer beneficial to me. "Yes." He said simply and I felt saddened. I nodded with a slightly disappointed smile which could be clearly seen in my eyes."Goodnight then." I forced myself to smile and then tucked myself under the sheets turning away from him. "Em..." "Sleep if you are tired. Hearing your voice in the dim light makes more difficult for me." I admitted cutting him off. I heard a slight chuc
CHAPTER 83I could feel it, his rod was still hard and standing firm inside of me. "Are you alright?" He asked lovingly and I nodded unable to speak. Alexander rolled me over so that I was laying on my back with him on top. He eyes seemed to study me for a while. I was still feeling all shaky but I tried my best to look alright. He caressed me slowly. "Tell me when you are ready to go again." He whispered grazing his fingers down my thighs. The feeling of his fingers trailing upwards sent my whole body ablaze once more. Reaching up I grabbed the back of his head and brought his lips down on mine while he tried his best to hold himself up a bit so as not to crush the baby with his weight. And after 3 more rounds, Alexander finally finished up and we zoomed off to Dreamland.I laid on bed fully awake, I needed to take a bath and eat breakfast as I was famished but I couldn't help but savor this moment. This peaceful moment with Alexander. There was so much of
CHAPTER 84As the plane touched down at JFK International Airport, a mixture of exhaustion and relief washed over me. The long journey seemed to have drained every ounce of energy from my body. Alexander, held my hand tightly through out the whole ride, providing the much-needed support as we made our way through the bustling airport.The past few days in Brooklyn was quite fruitful, we had spent time exploring the rich cultural heritage of the city. But now, all I wanted was the comfort of our home. It felt like forever and I had to admit, I already missed Maria and Olivia The mere thought of settling into our cozy bed brought a smile to my weary face.As we stepped out of the airport, a chauffeur awaited us with a sleek black car. Alexander helped me into the backseat, and the cool leather upholstery provided a welcome respite from the fatigue that had taken hold of me. The ride back to our mansion was a blur, with my mind drifting off to the memories w
