NORA'S POV.
Antonio came down as soon as he was done and we all sat down to dinner. During dinner, Antonio brought up a discussion about what we could do for weekend as a family. There were suggestions, but it wanted it to be something that will not really require going far from our new comfort zone. Antonio suggested we went swimming and I instantly bought the idea. We won't require going far from our house cos there was a pool very close to the house. We all agreed to go swimming the coming weekend. Christabel also suggested we had a picnic during our swimming, which was also a fantastic idea. We all started suggesting things to take along for the weekend picnic and swimming. After dinner that night, we decided to have a family night. We gathered in the living room after I've put Maligro to sleep in the bedroom. We sat down to watch a movie. It was nice having a family night. I stood up to make popcorn for the movie night and soon, we sat together again. I huddled close to my husband as we cuddled. He wrapped his arms around me as I rested my head on his chest. It was a relaxing evening and with spent it together as a family laughing and making ourselves happy. We dozed off while watching the movie and woke up the next day in each other's arms again.
Christabel stood up and made her way to the kitchen.
"Why don't you two make time for yourselves. You can both have a day to yourselves before we go for our weekend". Christabel suggested as she washed the dishes preparing to set the table to breakfast.
"I think that's a good idea, what do you think babe?" Antonio said still holding me close to himself.
"Well, I think that's good too. But..." I replied but was cut short of words.
"No ifs and buts Nora, you really should have time for yourself. Just the two of you". Christabel said not giving me the chance to finish what I had to say. "There should be no excuse this time". She concluded as she moved towards the table.
"There's no excuse she can give tho. You're here to take care of Maligro. And besides, you're in a safe place where you are as long as you don't go out of this little town of ours." Antonio said in support.
"I'm not giving excuses. I was only worried about our safety". I said looking concerned. I was in deed worried for our safety. I could remember we left Maligro and Christabel alone at home when Maligro was abducted by Cisco. I wouldn't want to risk letting such happen again.
"We will be fine babe, we won't be going too far away from home. Nothing will happen". Antonio persuaded.
"Fine, we won't go far from the house and we won't stay long outside either". I finally agreed to their decision to have time for myself with my husband tho I wasn't fully persuaded. We spent the whole day preparing and deciding on where to go, what to do, the time to spend and most especially how to make sure we were safe where ever we went.
Finally we made a decision and got ready. We decided to go to the nearest hotel very close to the house. In deed, it's been a while my husband and I had some fun time. I realized Christabel was right. As I got dressed for the night, I turned to look at my husband who was also getting dressed. How come someone is after his life. He's a gentle soul, calm and collected. He wouldn't think of hurting a soul. Is there something he's not telling me, my husband would never hide anything from me. I don't think there's anything he needs to tell me that I don't know about already. But I planned to make our night memorable just like the first time. I decided I would ask him the questions that was bothering me at the hotel. As soon as we got dressed, he held my hand and we went straight to the car.
"You look so beautiful Nora, I wonder how you beauty keeps shining even with the stress you go through". Antonio said as he manned the wheel. I only replied with a smile... I had a lot in my head, I wasn't really thinking straight. I was trying to figure out how Antonio ended up being someone involved in a fight or something.
"You don't look so good, what are you thinking about?" Antonio asked disrupting my thoughts.
"Nothing really, actually, I don't have anything I'm thinking about". I said trying to hide my worry as much as possible. "We should have a nice time together. I was thinking of a way to make our night memorable". I said as I looked at him to see what his expression would be.
"Why don't you just focus on the night and let things happen the way they want to". He said giving me a bright smile. Soon, we got to the hotel and went straight to our table. It appears Antonio already booked a table for us before getting to the hotel. After having dinner, we retired to our room which was also already booked. The room was already well decorated. It seemed Antonio had made plans ahead even before Christabel brought up the idea. Or he had already planned with Christabel to persuade me to accept to go for the outing with him. The bed was decorated with my favorite flowers, red rose. I looked up at Antonio smiling widely. I gave him a tight hug and we stood there for a while in each other's arms. I soaked in his arms as I sniffed in his perfect smell.
He took me to the varanda as we both watch the sun set casting a warm golden glow over the horizon. It was a beautiful sight to behold. I loved nature a lot and I always found myself marvelling at any beautiful sight of nature. We sat side by side with our hands interwoven my heart was beating fast to the rhythm of the evening breeze. It was happening again. This was just like the first time. I leaned my head against Antonio shoulder and he pulled me in closer to his embrace. I felt my heart skip as he pulled me closer. "Isn't this perfect?" I asked looking up at him, my voice was barely audible.
Antonio looked into my eyes causing butterflies in my stomach. His gaze was so breathtaking, filled with the depths of love which said it all. "It's more than perfect". I felt a knot tied in my stomach as his deep voice echoed in my ear. "This reminds me of the first time we met". "Being here with you again is another day I know I won't ever forget. Sharing this type of moments with you is what I've always dreamed of". He said as he brushed aside a strand of hair from my face.
Soon, the moon started giving forth its own light. Casting a cool sliver glow over the horizon just as the sun did. The stars started to twinkle, and Antonio pulled me in closer giving me a gentle kiss on my forehead. "I love you". He said with an ever gentle and loving tone, his words sounded so sincere, carried along with a weight of lifetime warranty of total devotion.
"And I love you too Antonio". I murmured in return my heart was overflowing with abundance of love and gratitude for the man who captured my soul beyond my own imagination. Antonio filled the empty space in my heart, making my life totally complete. In that moment, we knew we were in whatever situation together. We knew we were to remain together forever.
Soon, we found ourselves in the room. I was once again wrapped in Antonio's embrace as his breath tickled my neck line. His fingers trailed my lips causing me to shiver in pleasure. Our bodies pressed against each other sending signals into each bodies. Soon, we were exploring each other's lips, kissing ever tenderly and slowly savouring the sweetness of the moment. His hands trailed from my ears down to my peaches. I felt the hot sensation burning my skin. Soft whispers of desire filled the room. My heart was beating fast adding to the rhythm of the whispers of pleasure. Antonio had his way of making me call for him. And he was doing his very best to make me moan his name. As our bodies intertwined, we moved in perfect harmony letting out soft moans of pleasure. Soon, his hands trailed down to my main as I parted my legs to let him have his way. I was fully ready for him that night, and he was also well prepared to give me the best night.
As the passion increased, he slid his hands inside me and he went as fast as he could. Causing me to arch my back giving him full access to my main. Which each passing moments, our passion grew building to a crescendo that could no longer be contained. Soon, I busted out his name as he finally got to the limit.
