BXBX NOVEL Chapter 63 - His Good Side
Madeline's POV
When Hunter told me about the honeymoon, I can't stop myself from feeling excited. I know it is for the newlyweds, but I didn't expect he will take a leave from his work to be with me for one week, and I don't want to hope that he is beginning to like me because I know I will only get hurt in the end because Hunter's real emotion is hard to read. I like when he is warm towards me, and what I love the most when he allows himself to smile because he looked so young and free, and I can feel that he loves spending time with me.
And what made me more excited is spending time with him on the beach, and even though I am still ashamed about it, I can't deny I am anticipating our lovemaking. I am now married to him, and I should not be ashamed to think about sex and the fun of doing it. And I want to explore more, and I know I can't help myself thinking about how he made me feel. He was right. He can make me so happy in bed, and I wish Hunter were delighted with my performance because it was my first time. I don't even know what to do, but Hunter's kisses made me feel warm and excited all the time, and the hardness of his muscular body is making me want to be closer to him every chance that I can get.
"Madeline!" I was startled when I heard Lily's voice behind me. When I turned around, she was already near me. She was wearing a beautiful cerulean ankle-length dress, and she looked like a real princess, and then Lily hugged me.
"I have been calling you, but it seems you were in deep thought." The little girl said, and I felt my face turned crimson because I felt so guilty why I didn't hear her, and I can't tell her because I was thinking about my sweet moments with her brother.
"I am sorry, Lily, I was thinking about something," I said and looked down at her beautiful face.
"Did Hunter hurt you?" She asked, and I felt my face blush because his brother didn't hurt me at all. It was the opposite, and Hunter interjected with our conversation.
"And why do you think I hurt my wife, Lily?" Hunter said, and I can't stop myself from feeling so happy when I heard the word "wife."
"Because that is your forte, Hunter, hurting Maddie is your favorite pastime." She said, and I stifle a laugh as I listen to her.
"Ouch, come on, Lily, I know there were times I hurt Maddie, and I made her cry, but it was all unintentional. I don't like to see Madeline weeps. Besides, when you grow up, you will understand everything, and you can ask Madeline if I hurt her last night." Hunter responded to his sister, and I looked at her in the eyes.
"I will ask you again, Maddie, did he hurt you?" She asked.
"No, Lily, your brother made me so happy last night." I replied, and she smiled, and I can see Hunter's smile broaden, and he winked at me.
"Well, I can tell you are not lying because I can see it in your eyes that you are delighted, Maddie, and I am happy too because you are now officially my sister-in-law." She said, and her words made me grinned at her, and I shuffled her hair.
"Me too, Lily. I am so glad you are now my sister." I replied.
"Why did you wake up so early?" I asked her.
"I want to come with you, but mom said I am not allowed to go with you because you are going to have your honeymoon in the Villa in Magnolia Village, and one week is long enough for me not to see you and Hunter." She replied.
"Yes, Lily, we will have our honeymoon, but don't worry, I will ask Calixto to bring you there on the weekend." Hunter replied, and her face lights up.
"Really? Are you sure you want me to visit you there?" She asked, and she goes to her brother and hugs him.
"Of course, I know you want to have some swimming on the beach together with us." Hunter declared, and she looked up to her brother and smiled at him.
"Of course, I do, and thank you, Hunter. I Will ask mom to accompany me to go to the department store today because I want to buy new swimsuits and some dresses." Lily said excitedly, and my husband beamed at her.
"Enjoy your honeymoon, guys. I need to go now and tell mom the good news." She said and ran towards the door.
"Hey, don't run, Lily." Hunter shouted, but she already got out of our room hastily, and Hunter steps closer to me. And I can't stop myself from feeling excited to be near him, and I can feel his ripped, chiseled abs and muscular shoulders underneath his white shirt, and I swallow my saliva when he softly caressed my shoulder, and he leaned down and make my mouth captive with his hungry mouth. Hunter takes possession of my mouth, and I can feel his tongue slithered inside my mouth that made me let out a soft moan. And I am a little frustrated when he moved away from me.
"We better go now, Madeline, while it is still early." He declared, and I nodded because my limbs still feel weak due to his lingering kiss.
Leticia and Lily send us to his car, and we said goodbye to them, and I can see the satisfied looked on his mother's face. We said goodbye to them, and Hunter, who is only wearing his jeans and t-shirt, looked so hot driving his car, and I couldn't believe this handsome man driving the car beside me is now my husband.
"Are you excited?" He asked, smiling at me, and I wonder what happened to the old Hunter I know. I am just glad he switch off his other self, the strict and serious one, and I felt overwhelmed with gladness that I have my vacation with this man, the happy and carefree self of Hunter Divenson.
"Yes, I am very excited, Hunter." I replied.
"Can I ask you a question?" I asked because I can't stop my curiosity.
"It depends." He answered, and I don't care if he will get angry because I am no longer afraid of him. The humiliation that I feel when he left me in front of all the guests during the ball was too much to bear, and if he is going to answer me sarcastically right now, it would be alright because there are just the two of us.
"Do you have a split personality?" I asked.
"What kind of question is that, Madeline?" He asked me back.
"Please don't get angry with me. I only asked you because I am just wondering why most of the time you are so cold and distant, and then you will become suddenly warm and approachable." I said, and I was shocked when Hunter laughed.
"Don't worry, Madeline, I don't have a split personality, and I admit my character is hard to read, but I am trying my best now to make you understand who I am." He replied, and I felt like I am in the clouds right now, and I couldn't believe he will give me an honest answer because I expected he would snap at me.
"And I am asking you to be patient with me, Maddie." He added, and he took my hand and squeezed it, and I can't find my voice because I am in so much joy.
I felt so cheerful when I saw the signage "Welcome to the Magnolia Village" on the highway, and I can't stop myself from feeling so pleased. And I wonder why Hunter stops in the parking lot of the shopping center.
"I need to buy something." He declared and climbed out of the car, and before I can open my door, he already did it for me. He was smiling as he offered his hand to me and we walked holding hands in going inside the circular building.
I am surprised when he takes me to the boutique that sells swimming attire. And he asked me to choose anything I want.
"Hunter, you don't need to do this, I still have swimsuits in the Villa, so I am good." I said, and he holds my shoulders softly, and he turned my body to face him because I am looking at the beautiful bathing suits in front of me.
"Maddie, allow me to do this, okay?" He asked, and I don't have a choice but nod my head.
"Girls, please provide my wife the most suitable swimsuit for her." Hunter said, and the sales ladies looked at us, and I can see how their irritated faces turned so sweet when they all looked at my husband. And they scrambled on their feet and search for the best swimsuits they can find for me, and in the end, Hunter bought me seven pieces of swimsuits, and he gave the ladies ample amount of tip, and I can see how they admired the hotness of my husband. We roam around the shopping center, and he bought me new dresses, skirts, and tank tops, and I am surprised when he said we are done shopping.
"Hunter, you said you are going to buy something for yourself, but why it turned out you didn't buy anything for yourself?" I asked.
"Because I only want to buy things for you, Maddie." He answered, and my face blushed.
"I don't need all of these, Hunter, and I already have so many clothes in my closet in the Divenson mansion and the Villa." I replied.
"It is our mansion now, Madeline, because you are now my wife. I want to buy you things, and even if you don't need all these, I want you to have them." He said and tugged me to go outside the shopping center.. And I can't stop wishing that this day would never end because I realized Hunter Divenson, my husband, is showing me his good side today, and I can't wait to spend my days alone with him, and I hope during our honeymoon Hunter will show me the real him.
