BXBX NOVEL Chapter 278 Feeling Secured And Loved
Madeline's POV
"Are you having fun, my beautiful wife?" Hunter asked the moment he got back into our room from their walk on the sand, and I took Frank from him and breastfed him right away because I knew why my husband went back to our room since our son got hungry.
"Yes, of course, this is one of the best vacations that I have, but nothing can beat our honeymoon, my love," I responded; my husband smiled at me, and his intense gaze made my entire body feel so weak, and good thing I was leaning my back on the headboard of our bed.
"Of course, it will always be the best memory, Madeline." He said as he sat beside me, and Hunter was holding our son's hand while he was caressing my face.
"And now that we have our son, I wanted to create more memories with you and Frank, and I couldn't wait for him to say the word, daddy and mommy." He said.
"Me too, my love," I responded, and we both looked at our son as he suckled my breast. And I always loved every time I breastfed him, and it made me feel more connected with my infant; like Hunter, I couldn't wait to hear the first word that came out of our son's mouth, and I couldn't wait for that moment to come. Hunter took our son from me, and he carefully put him in the crib after our son fell asleep.
"I missed you so much, Madeline," my husband said the moment he joined me in the bed.
"I missed you too, and I hope you will never attend another business conference, but I know being the CEO of my grandpa's company, it is part of your job," I said as he brought me closer to him, and I could feel the knots on my stomach when I felt him caress my arm.
"Me too, my sweet Madeline, but when Frank is big enough to travel, I want you and our son to come with me every time I need to attend business meetings and conferences." He responded, and I nodded my head.
"Of course, I would love to, and I wanted to visit those places with you and Frank," I said, feeling so excited to travel, even if I knew there would be a risk. Still, I know Hunter will ensure our safety, and I am sure my grandfather will hire the best men to protect my family, but I couldn't stop feeling worried sometimes.
And how I wished a time would come when I would be enjoying my life without thinking about my safety, like during those days when I was still living with my aunt; I was enjoying my freedom back then, and I didn't realize marrying a big shot will put my life in danger, but I know I love Hunter. I am willing to do everything for him.
"Hey, Madeline, you need to wake up; dinner is ready," I heard my husband's voice waking me up from sleep, and I didn't realize I had dozed off to sleep while his arms were curled around me.
"Oh, I am sorry, I don't want to sleep, but I guess I missed sleeping in your arms so much," I said as he was pulling me up with him.
"It is okay; you don't need to apologize, it was so lovely watching you in your sleep, my love, and that is one of the things I miss about you. I missed your scent and everything about you." He responded, and when I looked at the crib, our little boy was no longer there.
"Lily texted and asked me if she could borrow our son, so I texted my sister when Frank woke up, and she came rushing here and brought him outside." He answered me before I could even ask him where our son was. And I seductively put on my dress while my husband was looking at me the entire time.
"You looked so beautiful in that summer dress, my love, but you are gorgeous without it, and I wanted to ditch dinner and be with you here alone in our bed and make love with you until morning, but I don't want grandpa Hector to wait for us because he was expecting all of us to join him at the dining hall." He said, I know I was blushing, and I wanted to tell him I felt the same way too.
I couldn't stop myself from staring at Hunter's handsome face. It felt like I was still a teenager because I couldn't stop having the knots on my belly as I looked at Hunter gazing at me. We got out of our room holding hands, and when we reached the dining hall, I realized they had been waiting for Hunter and me to join them because I could tell we were the last ones who arrived.
"I am sorry, everyone, I fell asleep," I said as I looked them around the table, and they all responded it was okay.
And then, my grandpa announced that we should dig in, and I couldn't stop feeling so thrilled when I found Jack sitting beside my best friend. I couldn't wait to know the full details later, and then my grandpa Hector complimented Jack right away after taking the first bite of his food, and the hottest chef in Archois blushed as he acknowledged my grandpa's praise.
The dinner was superb, and as expected, all the food was delicious; I couldn't deny; that Jack is one hell of a cook. And I got so full after eating so many shrimps tempura and squids calamari.
"Jack, the food is superb, and thank you for the meal," I said after dinner,
"Thank you so much, Madeline; your compliments mean so much to me," Jack answered me as he gave me one of his sweetest smiles while he nodded at my husband.
We all got up from the long wooden table and proceeded to the beachfront, and we were all in awe. I realized my grandpa had hired one of the famous male singers in the country to entertain us for the night, and I almost laughed when I found Lily in the front sitting on the beach blanket, and I remembered the singer; he was Lily's idol ever since she was twelve years old.
I could see many beach blankets spread on the sand, and my husband chose the one near the water. He was sitting behind me while his arms were around my waist, and it felt so lovely to listen to mellow music on the seashore; and I could see grandpa seated beside with Hunter's mom, and I was smiling from ear to ear when I found Jack and Gina are sharing a blanket.
My husband was singing with the artist, and I loved hearing Hunter's masculine voice in my ear. I couldn't believe it when the singer asked who wanted to sing a song at the front, Jack raised his hand right away, and the crowd got crazy. I was shouting with the rest, and I could tell my best friend was blushing. And everyone was in awe when we heard Jack's voice, and I was surprised that he had a beautiful voice that is capable of melting girls' hearts.
Jack was singing "Beautiful In My Eyes" by Joshua Kadison, and he was staring at Gina the whole time he was singing his song. I couldn't stop myself from feeling so happy as I looked at them, and I didn't realize my tears were falling on my cheeks. We all clapped our hands after he ended his song, and even the singer complimented Jack for his excellent performance; when he returned to his place, I could see that Jack is now holding hands with my best friend.
"Wow! I didn't know Jack could sing like that," Hunter said in more than a whisper, and I giggled as I realized my husband praised Jack.
"Me too, and I think my best friend is now on cloud nine, and I am sure she won't be able to sleep tonight," I responded.
"How about you? Did you sleep well after we first met?" He asked as he pulled me closer to him.
"How can I sleep when you kissed me on the first night that we met, and it was my first kiss, Hunter, and I fell in love with you that night, and do you remember I was stealing glances at you while you were sleeping beside me on that night?" I asked.
"Of course, I remember vividly, and I was trying my best not to kiss you, Madeline, but when I looked at your face, I was so lost, and I couldn't stop myself from kissing you, and you were not the only one who didn't sleep that night, I was thinking about your sweet lips and angelic face, and I wanted to claim you, and I admit, I felt something so strong and real on the first night I met you, Maddie." He responded as he kissed my head.
"I love you, Madeline," he added.
"I love you too, Hunter," I responded.
I smiled as I remembered our past, and I couldn't deny I fell in love with Hunter on the night we first met, and right now, it feels so romantic to listen to the love song playing in the background while I am in the arms of my loving husband feeling secured and loved.
