BXBX NOVEL Chapter 68 - The Virgin Island-Part 1
Madeline\'s POV
As we near the island, Hunter slowed down the boat, and I am taking in the beauty before my eyes, and the moment we reach the island\'s shore, I fell in love with its loveliness. The shoreline that surrounds the entire island takes my breath away. He anchored the speedboat, and we climbed out while bringing our things. Hunter searched for a perfect spot near the trees to set up our tent to put our stuff inside the tent before exploring the virgin island.
"Oh, Hunter, thank you so much for bringing me here. This place is perfect and beyond beautiful, how I wish Gina can see this place." I said, and I gaze on the beach with my eyes wide open and my mouth agape.
"My pleasure, Maddie, don\'t worry the next time we will visit here, we will bring Lisa and Lily." He replied as I helped him assembled our tent. And I smile broadly at him. It was a big tent, and I can\'t stop myself from smiling, thinking this is my first time sleeping in a tent with a man, and he is not an ordinary man, but my husband. Hunter was good with almost everything, and after he assembled our tent, he gets the cooler from the boat while I arrange our things inside the tent. I put on the camp beds and pillows, and it looks comfortable now to lay down inside our spacious tent, and I think it could accommodate ten people, and I smiled when I realized we have a lot of room to turn around and play inside the tent.
I can\'t believe I am having this kind of fun right now, and I realized Hunter was trying his best to make our honeymoon unforgettable. I have wanted to have this kind of adventure for so long now.
"Maddie, please get your sunblock lotion now so I can apply some into your skin," Hunter said from the outside of the tent, and when I walked outside with sunblock lotion in my hand, I was surprised when I saw two portable sun lounger spread in front of our tent.
"Wow! I couldn\'t believe you are always ready with everything, Hunter." I said, admiring my husband\'s works.
"Yes, of course, and I am now also ready for you, my sweet Madeline." He said with a seductive smile formed on his mouth, and he winked at me, and it made me giggled. He moves closer to me, and then he took me by the waist, and he dragged me down slowly to sit on the lounger, and he started applying the sunblock on my skin. He asked me to lay down on the lounger as he continued massaging the lotion into my arms down to my feet. When he finished applying the sunblock, he lay down on the lounger beside me, and we both enjoy sunbathing for a while while we listened to his favorite playlist on his iPhone. And I can\'t stop myself from stealing glances at my husband. I didn\'t realize I dozed off, and when I open my eyes, I saw Hunter staring at me.
"Do I have something on my face?" I asked, and he shook his head and smiled at me that made my knees go weak.
"No, I love watching your beautiful face, especially when you are sleeping." He said, and I can\'t stop myself from blushing.
"Especially if you are blushing." He added, and I can feel my face became redder.
"Are you ready to have some fun?" He asked, and I felt glad he changed the subject; Hunter\'s compliments made me happy, but they can also make me shy.
"Of course, I am in, whatever kind of fun as long as it is safe," I replied.
"Of course, I will never put your life in danger, Maddie, I am a mining engineer, and the safety of all my employees is on top of my priority, especially those people who are working on the mine. And you are my wife, and I promise to protect you, Madeline." He said, and I can tell Hunter\'s sweetness will make me melt. He takes my hand, and we get back inside the tent. And he gets his bag and pulled out the snorkel gear that includes snorkel vests, masks, snorkels, boots, wetsuits, and I became more excited.
"I love to watch you, swimming on the water wearing your swimsuit, but since we will go snorkeling, I want you to wear the wetsuit since it will insulate you while swimming, it will retain your body heat, and it is always the best when you go snorkeling." Hunter declared, and I nodded.
"I have never done this before, Hunter," I said honestly, since I don\'t have any idea what to do, and I felt excited and afraid at the same time. I love swimming and everything related to swimming. Still, I never get the chance to experience snorkeling and scuba diving before since I don\'t have time to enjoy and I am always out of budget, but I have been dreaming of experiencing these things. I am so happy right now to share this with Hunter.
"Don\'t worry, Madeline. Snorkeling is easy and fun. I will be by your side all the time, and I promise you, you will love the corals on this island. The virgin island is one of the best snorkeling and scuba diving spot in the entire country, but I think they don\'t discover it yet. And I hope this island will remain as it is, and I am just glad the island is all ours since we haven\'t seen anyone. Let us enjoy this paradise, Madeline." Hunter said.
"Tell me, the truth, did you rent the entire island just for our honeymoon?" I asked, and my husband laughed.
"Well, if this island is only for sale or rent, I will buy this for you, and I will build a rest house in this paradise so you can enjoy the beauty of nature, but I am sorry, Maddie, this Island is property of the municipality of Magnolia, and it is open for the public, and I appreciate that the Magnolia citizens never abused this paradise, but instead they take good care of this island by maintaining it\'s cleanliness," I replied.
"Oh, I see, this place is breathtaking and perfect, and I hope I can stay here forever," I replied.
"Me too, Madeline, how I wish we can stay here forever, and we will spend most of our time swimming, making love, and eating," Hunter said, and I can\'t stop myself from blushing again.
When we are ready to go, we wade through the water, and Hunter put the mask on my face. When he was satisfied it fits on my face, he instructed me to put the snorkel\'s mouthpiece into my mouth and breathe through it while swimming on the water and watching the beautiful view underwater. I notice Hunter has an underwater camera hung around his neck, and I can\'t stop myself from scanning my husband\'s muscular body. And I hate to admit that he always makes me want to go near him and be in his arms.
"Are you ready?" He asked, and he took a candid photo of me while I was walking on water.
"Yes, I am!" I replied, and he smiled before he takes my hand, and we go down into the water together and start swimming and making another adventure of our lives as husband and wife.
As I move down my head into the water, I can see the beautiful colorful corals on the surface. In contrast, I can see different varieties of fishes, and I am mesmerized to see the other colorful fishes swimming underwater. I already know the abundant corals are the home of the fishes, and I know that Magnolia is known for each excellent seafood quality.
And I almost screamed when I saw two giant sea turtles swimming near us, and the perfect view takes my breath away. And I love to see them swimming freely, and I realized sea turtles surround us, and they are just floating around us. Hunter was busy clicking his camera, and I can tell he loves every angle he took, and I wish we will have some pictures together.
I never realized how long we had been in the water until I feel hungry, and I notice my husband is starving too when he signaled to me that we should head back to the shore.
"We can go back later, Madeline." He said as he takes off his fins while I did the same. And we both walk barefoot on the sand going back to our tent. Hunter spreads the picnic blanket on the sand outside our tent, and I get the food from the basket, and my mouth water, and my stomach grumbles when I smell the aroma of food in the basket. My eyes got so big when I realized Lucinda prepared so much food just for the two of us.
We have pork steak, spicy buffalo wings, cheesy breadsticks, meatballs, shrimp tempura, and some others. And I also love the fresh tomato, cucumber, and carrots mixed with vinegar, pepper, a little salt, and sugar. We eat in silence, and I realized we are both starving. And I wish this day would never end, and I want to do this again some other time. I know the nature of Hunter\'s work occupies almost all his time since he is always busy, and I hope he will still find time to spend with me.. I never thought Hunter Divenson would fulfill all my dreams in life, including having a handsome and hot husband.
