Loving Madeline -
Chapter 99 - Have Faith
Madeline's POV
I had dinner with my husband, and we eat and laughed. I have a good time that I don't want to ruin the mood of the evening, we went home and made love until dawn, and I don't know how I will tell him about her. He reports to the office the following day, and I am shocked to replace he came home before lunchtime.
"Hey! are you finished with your work?" I asked.
"No, I am not yet done, but I asked Cal to continue where I left off, and he is the best assistant ever, and I can trust him." He replied.
"Why do you come home so early? Are you not feeling well?" I asked, and I can't stop myself from feeling so worried, and he laughed.
"Relax, Madeline, I am fine. I know all my life I dedicated my time to my work, and now that you came into my life, I realized I should replace time to be with you. I want to spend more time with you, Madeline." He said, and I can't stop the butterflies on my stomach as he moves closer to me, and he put his arms around my waist.
"You need to get dress, and I am going to take you somewhere." He said, and before I can reply, he takes my mouth, and my lips melted with his perfect lips. He kissed me hard and deeply, and it was a long kiss. And I felt Hunter pressed his toned body against mine, and I heard him grunted under his breath as he broke away from me and stopped the hot kissed that we shared, and I was gasping for air.
"Damn, you should change your clothes now, Madeline, or else we can't go to our destination because you are making me so horny just watching your slightly opened mouth, and it looked so inviting. I want to claim you now, right here, and right now, but Calixto made a reservation for our lunch, and I don't want Cal's effort to be wasted. I had been bugging him to make a reservation, and this is the only time he gets through, or maybe he always forget to do it, and he was afraid if I will get angry with him that is why he always tells me the restaurant is fully booked.
My husband takes me to the Divenson building, and I wonder if we are going to eat inside his office as he takes me to the elevator. And I was shocked when he brought me to the roof deck and found a helicopter waiting for us. My husband takes my hand, and he brings me into the aircraft.
"Next time, I will tour you around, just the two of us." He said, and then the chopper took off, and I can't explain the feelings I had as we left Archois City, and I can see the beautiful view of the busy metropolis. My husband was holding my hand the entire ride, and I felt so happy. And how I wish to feel this way forever, but deep in my heart, I know what we have right now is borrowed time. I want to make the time stand still so I can be with Hunter forever. And I wonder when I can replace the perfect timing to tell him about Rebecca being alive.
My mouth hangs open as I saw the beautiful island below us, the long white shoreline took my breath away, and the blue-green water warms my heart. I want to go swimming, and I almost laugh when I realized I was wearing a cocktail dress with high heels while my husband is still on his coat and tie wardrobe. He didn't inform me we are going to the Pure White Island. I had seen this in pictures, but this is my first time to be in this paradise. The pilot lands the helicopter at the resort helipad, and I felt so happy to feel the ocean breeze on my skin.
My husband brought me to the expensive underwater restaurant located at the most high-end hotel in Pure White Island. And the restaurant is eighteen feet below sea level. I have heard and read articles about the place, but never in my life, I imagine myself eating here. The staff entertained us and brought us to our reserved seat, and the view was fantastic, that I can't stop myself mesmerized by the one hundred eighty degrees dramatic scenery around us. I can see the variety of fishes, and of course, the restaurant's highlights are the sea turtles, sharks, stingrays swimming around the glass.
The Island is far from Archois, and I am sure Gina will be ecstatic once she found out I was eating here. I can't stop myself from gawking at the panorama above us that made my neck ache as I crane my neck from left to right to get a better view.
The breathtaking sight made me forget the nightmare that I am going to face. And I realized I have to tell my husband soon since I don't have the heart to ruin our perfect date today. Hunter looked so happy being with me, and I want to believe that what we have was real. I didn't wish Rebecca to be dead, but I want to meet Hunter in a different circumstance where I can love him freely.
"Hey! Why do you look sad? Aren't you happy to be here?" I heard him asked me, and I give him my sweetest smile.
"I am so happy, Hunter. I can't believe this place, and I am taking everything in. I couldn't believe I am here; this is one of the places I want to visit with Gina." I replied.
"Don't worry, and we will take Gina with us the moment we come back here." He replied, and I can't stop myself from feeling excited, but my happiness was cut short when I realized it would never happen once he learns the truth. Our date turned out so perfect, the seafood was superb, the lobster was amazing, and I wish to stay on the island forever, but I can't stop myself from feeling so lonely the moment we return home.
We showered, and I changed into my nightdress, and I felt so warm by the time I found my husband gawking at me, and I can see the love and lust on his eyes, and when he takes me into his arms, I melt with his touch, and when he captured my mouth, I kissed him back like there is no tomorrow. We kiss for a long time, and I surrender to my husband once again, giving him all my love and affection. I give my all to our intense lovemaking. I want to remember everything, the way he kissed and touched me and the way he claimed me. I was screaming his name when we came together, and I can't stop myself from crying after we made love.
"Did I hurt you, Madeline?" Hunter asked me, and I shook my head.
"And why are you crying?" He asked, and his voice is full of concern, and I can't take it anymore. I have to tell him the truth right now before I will chicken out or before I will become selfish. Am I willing to let go of my husband? Can I live happily with him if I ever pretend I didn't know about Rebecca's existence?
"Hunter, I love you so much." I said, and he laughed while he wiped my tears away.
"I didn't realize you are this sentimental, Maddie, I love you too, and you don't need to cry, my sweet." He said, and he brings me closer to him, and he nibbles my ear, and it gives me goosebumps, and I cry harder. And I tried to turn away from him, but Hunter takes me by the waist, and he turned me around so I will be facing him, and he cupped my chin, and when I meet his beautiful eyes, I am lost to his world.
"Madeline, I know something is off, and it was scaring me, I am your husband now, and you can tell me everything. I was hoping you could open up with me. Whatever it is, we have to face it together. I know at first you thought we only get married because of your Aunt's debt and because I want to stop my father from forcing me to marry Kaye, but to tell you the truth, even before we get married, I know deep inside me, I already fall in love with you, Maddie. You have nothing to fear now because I will never hurt you again. I know I have been a jerk, but I regretted everything I have done to you, Madeline, and I am so thankful that you didn't leave me. You stay by my side even though I walkout during the pre-wedding ball." Hunter said, and this is the first time we talk like this, and how can I ruin this beautiful moment.
"Madeline, I want you to be honest with me." He said, and I sat up from the bed, and he mimicked my action, but he scooted closer to me, and he leaned his back on the headboard while he takes me into his arm.
"Okay, I need to tell you something, Hunter, and I wish nothing will change between us, but I know this is just wishful thinking because once you learn about this, I know everything will never be the same again." I said.
"Then, you have to try me, Madeline, tell me about it, and you will never know if it will change everything, but I promise to be understanding, and I am willing to listen because you mean so much to me, have faith on our love for each other Madeline.." He said, and I can't stop myself from crying as I get myself ready to tell Hunter everything, and deep in my heart, I wished my fate will favor me this time.
