We made our way back to the hotel to get a rest and freshen up with a change of clothes.So as we were walking hand in hand to our room. Looked at Winston and asked if he was ready to tell me about this Tonya Stanton he gazed over at me with his eye from the side as he unlocked the hotel room door. I walk into the bedroom to strip out of my dress and heels as I sit on the bed so I could watch Winston as he pulled off his jacket.
Winston’s confession-
I had dated Tonya for I few years she came to stay with me in Scotland and she traveled with me as my personal assistant. We spent a lot of time together she loved shopping and spending my money as far as I would let her. Looking at Ashley as you can see she is a woman that likes to be made up and of means to get what she wants and she enjoys someone that can give her a better life. I was traveling alone just felt like needed a break from life, I caught Tonya flirting with one of my other business partners which she was right I knew that was her natural when we met. She enjoyed life I was not sure if she was the one or type of woman I wanted to spend the rest of my life with. So as I needed to get away and traveling I made my way into this pub in Paris and saw this beautiful lady that look scared and lost. A few men were hitting on her but she turned them away quickly. I walked over and she looked into my eyes and I looked into her sweet scared face she didn’t hit me as the night life type. So I asked if I could escort her home. With the biggest blue eyes looking up at me with tears she said she didn’t know were that was. So I told her I had a large home she could stay in any room she wanted too. So we traveled over to my apartment and she showered and came out in a large hotel robe. We ordered dinner and after eating and talking she cuddled into me on the couch as I pulled my arms around her we slept that way. The next morning I told her I was heading home I could help her get where ever she needed to go. With those eyes she wasn’t sure were to go so I asked her if she would like to travel to Scotland with me. We talked and laughed about life what she could tell me about herself. I could tell she had been through a big ordeal but her gentle voice and sweet face just made my heart skip a beat. I have never just held a woman all night that I didn’t have s*x with but that night I did. She agreed to go home with me to Scotland and hopefully she would open up enough that she would let me help her get home to where she came from. We got back to my estate and I called my business associates to let them know I was taking some time off. I forgot one thing to tell Tonya so as the days passed and I got to know this beautiful young lady. And didn’t want anyone to interfere in me getting to know her. Tonya hearing about me taking some time off she headed to Scotland over a nine hour flight. When a staff member brought her to my office at the estate we had it out I told her I was done and I was no longer going to let her stay at my home I was sorry she had traveled so far but she should have called me before traveling. I had her personal effects boxed up in my office and I sent her back to the airport. Yes that was cold and crude not to let her rest up or to purchase a hotel room for her but she was done taking advantage of my money.
As I got to enjoying this beautiful lady staying with me and knew she has no other place to call home I asked her to marry me within weeks. And she said yes that I made her so happy just being by her side. So at the estate grounds I had a garden with her favorite red roses created and that’s were we got married. Just sitting on the bed I walked over and bent down and kiss my beautiful half dressed wife as I cuddled my body up next to her love you hit our lips together as we laid together as we took a nap.

As the day ended I was starting to hurt knowing my wife was going to be hurting bring up out what I had to tell her. As I walked into the kitchen to two of the most hyper grandchildren of one blessed grandfather could have. I saw my beautiful blonde haired wife at the kitchen sink finishing up dinner so of course I gave her along tight hug and kiss. Christina I love you as you know that I said she looked up at me with the biggest eyes and said what’s up? I whispered into her ear I saw her today! She just kept working at the sink like she didn’t hear what I said. Then she got on her cell to check were our grandchildren’s father who was normally picking up his children. As Jared arrived coming into the house giving me a look we still hadn’t talked much since she had disappeared over a year ago. He walked into the kitchen apologizing to his mom for being late. And asked the same question that he asked every time we talk hear from Ashley yet and without skipping a beat she said no, he knew if Ashley was alive she would always fight to get to her mom they were like two peas in a pod. As she walked over to each of her grandchildren saying good bye til tomorrow.
Looking at me saying ready for our walk stopping what she was doing and got her shoes on as she waited for me on back porch over looking the river. So I walked over and grabbed her hand as we were walking a wooded trail along the river bank Christina looked up at me and asked how she looked was she happy and health. I told my wife yes she looked very happy and healthy and then asked the big question can I see photos of her and with sad eyes said not yet. But I have a plan where we can see her we just have to act like she is still a stranger an til this threat is over or I kill the man that tortured my flesh and blood for a couple of weeks. She just looked into my eyes to see the sadness of what I had spent a life time causing to let happen and then her head laid on my chest as she started to have large tears running down her face. All I could say was soon love soon. As I held my wife knowing I was the one that caused her pain. I told her the story of walking into the first meeting this morning as I glanced around the room I caught her staring at me. I just went to my seat and sat down as I knew she noticed something about me. But the medication seems to be working well. My wife asked how much longer do you think with those big puffy eyes looking into my face. I kissed her nose and said soon I hope. We finished the meeting and most of the group went to the bistro down the street. A look of shock was all over her face as she wished that she had been there in the moment I was describing. Did you get to talk to her my wife asked , with a grin I said yes what about my wife asked I asked her about her family saying I could tell that she was American and not from Scotland. My wife chimed in with excitement but I reminded her of the medication she was on. Not yet till she is safe from all threats from her past life. Christina knew she resented her husband for what happened but not as bad as he resented himself for what has happened so she supported him knowing he would be the one to fix their life. But she asked me about my family as my wife’s eyes widen I knew she was stronger than any medication our scientists could come up with. Micheal proceeded to tell Christina that he told Ashley about being married thirty two years and his son with two grandchildren and a daughter I haven’t seen for over a year what did she say. Micheal told his wife she knew how sensitive Ashley was and would never go into someone’s hurt pass. And I told her about he next meeting and about me and Winston talk about her dreams about the book. My wife said she is dreaming about her book and all I could do is look down with tears in my eyes and say yes. ———————————
As we awoke from our nap I was receiving kisses as Winston reached around to smack my a** telling me to get up and get ready we have reservations for tonight. I looked at him saying that means I get to dress up as he bite his bottom lip and grins saying yes that’s what that means. As I started putting my clothes on I noticed that Winston had to whole closet set up with his clothes, looking at his smile so that’s why you didn’t bring many clothes. Lol he just laughed at my observation and said unless we purchase a home here this would be our home away from home in this part of the states. After A nice shower we got dressed trying not to cause to much of our bodies to touch knowing we would be late for our reservations. Getting on a long gown with gold thread running through the fabric to make a beautiful rose design through out the dress with lower heels that had the same pattern as the dress. Fixed my hair and got the matching wrap for my dress as Winston dressed in a dress shirt and black dress pants with his chest showing just enough to get my attention. I stopped him and thanked him for telling me that beautiful story of how we met and the meaning of my beautiful rose garden. Wow what a sexy breathtaking kiss we bother shared and he told me I saved his life just being there made his life happier and better than he could have imagined.
As we drove toward the river Winston would only say you will see our plans when we get there. We drove into a parking lot for access to the river as we drove up to a very large steamboat with a beautiful old fashion look I got so excited. What a night this was going to be. I was squirming in Winston’s arms kissing him with excitement.
As we stopped at the entrance so Winston could give the young lady our tickets as she winked at Winston I saw him raise his finger showing her his ring finger as I shot my ring hand up and said that nothing look at my ring kissing Winston’s cheek as the girl blush. Winston looked at me and said that’s how it’s done. As I turned and winked at the young lady as she was watching us walk up the boat ramp I had my arms wrapped around my husband’s arm. We found our way to the dining around that had a large stage with gorgeous chandeliers with waitresses and waiters running around as the guest started to make our way to our private tables. A very handsome young waiter came to get our drink orders as Winston ordered us some appetizers. I let Winston order our wine as I asked for a water. Everyone was seated as we acknowledged the young couple next to us. And we discussed the days events and what I thought of Winston’s business partners and how he thought I was a great personal assistant in my other life. As appetizers and drinks were delivered, the lights dimmed and a band with an amazing saxophone player played and performed some beautiful love songs. Winston stood and raised his hand as I stood and let him lead me to the dance floor we swayed to the music my hips into his with his arm around my waist as our other hands were enter locked together in between our chest. We smiled and kissed each other as I put my head on his cheek to feel his skin he turns to kiss my forehead as I lifted to grab his kiss with my lips. After that song I asked if we could walk the deck while it was still daylight. We walked to the middle of the boat and stood looking out to the land I caught the face of a woman also being held in her husband’s arms. I had a tear run down my face as Winston turned me around and asked what was wrong. I told him when I made eye contact with that lady on the shore I felt like I knew her. He looked down the river but as the boat slowly coast away. He said okay let’s go back my to our table smiling and wiping my tear away. I wondered who she was and why did we connect like that but said nothing else to my husband about it. The food was delivered to the table we listened to more great singing with some awesome music. What an amazing night and to know the story of how we met sounded like a true London love story to me.
Christina Dickson
Micheal that was Ashley that was her he asked how could you tell from the middle of the river. When a mother gives birth to someone she knows that person when she see them. You know that child has all ways been my shadow and yes I treated her like their was no one more important on this earth to me you know I love you as Micheal said I love that child more than life it’s self too. Holding me Micheal said I know you love me to I regret everyday turning her into my clone in a life not meant for ladies. As we made our way home a tear steamed down my cheek knowing my baby is live and safe. ——————————————
Steam boat evening was starting to wrap up we danced and enjoyed each other into the morning hours. It was cute how one guy wanted to break in and but as my husband jealousy came out looking the guy up and down his words was like a strong sword I will never share my wife’s attention with another man. I was so focused on Winston all night I didn’t notice anyone around me. With a tap on my shoulder I turned slyly to see who just tapped me and seeing Tonya Stanton I looked straight into her face with my wedding ring hand and flagged her away saying I don’t share my husband with any woman. As he grabbed me closer into him Winston said that’s right excuse us please. I love this man more than anyone would ever know. As the steam boat was docking we gather our belongings and headed to our car the staff had it pulled up and ready to go. As we made it back to the room and got out of our clothes, in bed kissing each other good night I was fast asleep.
