Chapter 187 - Quality Time With My Wife

Hunter's POV

"Why are you staring at me like that, Hunter?" My wife asked me because I looked amused, staring at her beautiful face as she ate her meal. I know how much my wife likes the view on the roof deck at night, especially if the sky is filled with stars, but right now, as we were eating our dinner, she didn't watch the sky first, but she focused on her food right away.

"Because you looked so beautiful, Madeline, and I love the feeling of watching you eat your food, and it reminds me you are pregnant, and I haven't seen you eat this way, and it amused me," I replied, and she weakly smiled at me, and I can tell she looked so shy.

"Hey, that is why I cook for you, I want you to be healthy and our baby, you will always look sexy and hot in my eyes, Madeline, even if you will gain weight, besides it is part of being pregnant and always remember this, I will always love the way you are, Maddie," I said, and she beamed at me.

"Are you sure about that, Hunter?" She asked.

"Yes, I do. Do you still doubt about my feelings for you, my sweet?" I asked, and she shook her head.

"No, I don't have doubts about your feelings for me, and I am aware you are crazy about me, Mr. Divenson," She responded, and I couldn't stop laughing because she sounded so confident as she said those words but I admit she was right.

"Of course, I am, and I am proud to say I am crazy in love with you, Mrs. Divenson. Now allow me to feed you more." I said, and she grinned at me. 

I didn't allow my wife to help me take out the dishes; instead, I asked Maddie to sit on the loveseat. And then, after I was done washing the dishes, I went back to the roof, and I smiled when I found my wife sleeping, and I realized that she got so tired from her swimming exercises. I know she loves swimming, that is why I bought this vacation house for her after Calixto informed me Madeline loves swimming on the beach, but she doesn't have time because of her part-time job. That is why I made sure she would have a comfortable life because I know my wife had a hard life when she was younger, yet I know it made her stronger.

"Hey, how long did I fall asleep?" Madeline asked me the moment she woke up, and she felt like going to the restroom since she wanted to have a pee, and I accompanied her to get inside the house.

"Not so long," I replied, and I put my arms around her waist so I could help her to stand up from her seat.

"You don't need to come with me, Hunter, I am fine, and I can manage," I said to him.

"Allow me to do this, Madeline since I promised to do this after the incident at the mining site. It was a terrifying incident in my entire life, and I was so afraid if I would lose this kind of chance to be with you." I said as I held her hand.

"That is why every time we are together I want to cherish every moment I have with you, because I have realized the importance of time, and most of all, we only have one life that is why we need to enjoy every moment, and I want to spend most of my time with you, Madeline," I said and she smiled.

We stayed at the roof deck looking at the starry night while she was lying on the loveseat, and her head was on my lap, and I was caressing her head.

"Did you think about me all the time while you were trapped underground?" She asked, and I looked down at her lovely face.

"Of course, Madeline, never in a day did I not think of you, and you were the reason why I never lost my hope because I know you were there waiting for me," I responded, and my wife was smiling.

"Thank you for coming home to me," Madeline said.

"Of course, there is no place I want to be but be with you, Madeline," I replied.

"I felt so happy right now that I have you back." She responded.

"Me too, Maddie," I replied, and I leaned down, and I captured her tempting lips, and I heard my wife let out a soft moan, and it made me deepen our kiss. And it feels so beautiful making out with my lovely wife.

We stopped kissing because I could tell her lips were now swollen. And we continued to gaze at the beautiful stars shining brightly above us. And we could hear the pounding of the waves against the shore, and the evening breeze caressed our skin that made her feel so sleepy again. I was looking at the stars, and I couldn't stop admiring the beauty of the night, and when I looked at my wife, she was sleeping again. And I couldn't stop myself from staring at my wife's lovely face. 

I carried Madeline to our room, and I gently placed her sleeping figure in our bed, and I lay next to her. I scooted closer to Maddie while I put her head on my shoulder, and as I listened to my wife's steady breathing, I could no longer stop my eyes from closing as I drifted to a long and beautiful sleep.

The moment I woke up, I could no longer see my wife beside me, and I smiled, thinking she was in the bathroom, but when I got up and checked the entire bedroom, I couldn't find her. I put on my tank top and boardshorts, and I hastily get out of our room. And as I near the living room, I could smell the aroma of food coming from the kitchen, and I smiled when I found her looking so hot facing on the stove, and I could tell she woke up early in the morning. I walked closer to my wife, and I put my arms around her waist from behind.

"Good morning, gorgeous!" I said, and I heard my wife giggle.

"Good morning, handsome!" Madeline responded, and she turned around to give me a quick peck on my lips.

"So, you beat me to it, and you cook breakfast, Maddie?" I asked my wife.

"Yes, I want to serve you, too, my dearest husband," Madeline responded, and I took the ladle from her hand, and I pulled her to sit down on the nearest chair, and I ran back to the stove since I don't want to serve and eat burnt food. 

"Hunter, I just want to cook you some breakfast; I can do it, you know." Madeline protested.

"Madeline, I told you, you are my princess, so what should a princess do?" I asked, and I heard my wife's laughter, and it felt so wonderful to have this moment with her.

After finishing preparing the food on the table, I shared another blissful moment with my wife, and I know we both need to enjoy this time that we have.

"I don't want you to get stressed, Maddie. You are pregnant, and I asked the caretaker to come here tomorrow to cook for us. At the same time, she can clean the entire vacation house. I hired maids so you can have a comfortable life, Maddie." I said.

"Thank you, Hunter, but I can do the basics, and I love to do something because I don't want to feel useless." She responded, and I cupped her chin.

"You are not useless, Maddie. You are my wife. Always remember that. I appreciate your desire to work, but I am sorry, I can't allow you to do that, especially now that you are pregnant, and please, that is all I asked from you." I declared, and I grinned when I looked at her, and she pouted her lips at me. And I was smiling the entire time we ate our breakfast.

We stayed in the living room after we ate, and we played some board games. And this is what I want to have with Maddie. Spending quality time with my wife made me feel so happy, and I want to take her later and have dinner at the Magnolia diner. And I am sure she will be thrilled to know about my plan. We are both having a good time, and we are laughing and teasing each other. And then we both looked at each other when we heard a knocking on the door, and I wondered who was outside our home.

"Did you invite someone?" My wife asked, and I shook my head.

"No, I didn't invite anyone except Lily and Gina. I told them to come and join us tomorrow." I replied.

"I will get it," I added, and I stood up from my seat.

"Okay, just make sure you will be back soon, or else you will lose your turn." She responded, and I smiled at her before I got up, and I walked to the door wondering who would be here at this hour when I was having a good time with my wife.
