"See you tomorrow."Christine said cheerfully."You too."She dropped the call and tore of the piece of paper she had wrote on before stuffing it in the back pocket of her jeans.When she turned she walked straight into Max's broad hard chest,she could feel his hands on her arms as he steadied her.Her heart skipped and began to race,she met his formidable gaze and wondered if she'll ever get used to his nearness and what it does to her insides."Sorry."She mumbled.He wonder who she had been talking to."Don't be,you didn't know I was here.""When did you get back?""Just now."He searched her gaze."What are you doing in here?""I needed a pen and paper so I came to check in here.I'm sorry for entering your private space without asking.""It's okay Adriana."She stepped out of his arms."Let me go and prepare dinner."She was at the door when he spoke. "There's no need I already ordered food.Go freshen up."She joined Max a few minutes later in the dining room the table has already been laid
"The day I do find that someone then I will."They stood looking at each other time seems to stand still.His warm hand was still stroking her cheek she craved for him wanted to lean into him wanted to feel his body up against her own...naked.She wanted to reach out and let her fingers touch the dark hairs on his chest that was visible, she wanted so many things from this man needed so much from him yet she knew it wasn't possible. Day by day he was ingratiated himself into their lives,and each day she was longing more and more for him,it was becoming hard for her to picture her life without him.What was she thinking?What was she feeling?Why is she so drawn to this man someone she has just met and know for a few weeks.How come she so badly wanted him to make love to her and touch her where no one else has. Slowly she was losing her mind and her heart too...no!She cannot possible fall for Max.She couldn't.Oh dear lord help me.Is it true?Was she beginning to fall in love.No!She fiercel
When he reached out to touch her face she closed her eyes and lost herself in his touch,feather light fingers trail a path down her throat to her chest,then he slowly caressed her arm up and down."You feel this electric pull between us too whenever we are near each other and over these past weeks it's only gotten stronger."Her eyes snapped open,his desire was evident in his eyes she could feel the tautness in his body as he was struggling to control himself."We both want each other and right now I can feel your body calling out to mine."He was right she was burning for him,craving for every inch of him longing to feel his body next to hers,her own breathing came out in soft gasps."Max...-"She whispered,he placed his forefinger on her lips tiny electric tingles rushed through her body."Your beautiful face has been haunting my dreams,your soft skin is burned into my mind and your gorgeous blue eyes are torturing me whenever I look into them.""Max...""You right I have been avoiding y
"Are you gonna come back."His fingers went around her neck he brought her face closer to his."I thought you weren't the cuddling type.""I'm not."He said."But I'll make an exception just for you."He kissed her long and slow leaving her breathless and wanting more."I don't want to take the risk of hurting you Adriana.I already made a mistake by taking you twice without waiting for you to heal properly.If you keep on looking at me like that it will be even more harder for me to restrain myself.""It doesn't hurt so badly."She said,she cupped his cheek and loved how his beard tingled her palm."Adriana..."He husked close to her ear."I've wanted to wait until our wedding night to make it special for you,I wanted to make you mine when we already married...but..-""It was special."She cut across him,placing her finger on his lips."And I don't have any regrets,because you were an incredible lover and if I have to do it all over again I would. What difference would it have made if you've wai
"They might not be here physically but they are spiritually and come saturday you won't be alone they'll be by your side.Come let's get you inside."He led her back to the livingroom where he made her sit down,he took the seat next to her."How you holding up?You so busy caring for everything and everyone around you that you've hardly given yourself a chance to grief properly.""I'm alright,and I'll be okay.""You sure?""I am.Amelia needs me I have to be strong for her,it's because of her that I'm able to go on and move forward.""She's blessed to have you in her life."He said."More like the other way around.""You're a good person Adriana putting your own life and needs second for the sake of your niece,that takes courage. Not to mention you changing your whole life just to get full custody of her,you still young and have your whole life ahead of you but here you are having your own business and raising your sister's child,not many people would do what you're doing.You strong and kin
And he needs to get control over his emotions,for the first time in his life he was confused and has no idea what to do next he turned to look at Adriana.What was it about her?He can say with certainty that she was his and always will be,no man will ever see her the way he has.No man will ever touch her,hold her, caress her and kiss her the way he has,he had been her first and he'll ensure he'll be her last as long as he was alive no man will ever explore and touch her gorgeous body.She stirred and moved on her side,he saw her hand reaching out to his side when she didn't feel him she slowly lifted up her head,he walked back inside but not before closing the sliding door.She smiled when she saw him the sheet slid down exposing her smooth creamy round breasts he ached to reach out and touch them,suck them until she was writhing in his arms.He laid down next to her and pulled her into his arms,she was warm her body molded perfectly with his as if she was made for him. "Max...""Yes."
Adriana took her when she held her hands out to her,she kissed her cheeks."You look beautiful Adriana.""Thank you Heather,and you too Christine.You the only people I know here and I really appreciate the kindness and friendship you've shown me.""Don't mention it."Christine said."So are ready to be Mrs Torrés."She smiled."As ready as I'll ever be."Heather took Amelia again."We'll see you at the church."She told Adriana,and she nodded."Come your driver is waiting downstairs,I'm sure your soon to be husband must be eagerly waiting for you at the church."She hopes so too she was nervous and excited at the same time.She was getting married the reality of it sounded so unreal she keeps on thinking this was a dream and come tomorrow she'll wake up and be back at home with Amelia,if this was a dream then she never wants to wake up,she's finally found her prince.Max was anxiously waiting for Adriana a small part of him was nervous.He hasn't seen her for a few hours and he cannot wait to
His hands tightened on her hips as his thrusts became more powerful and stronger,he went in deep and Adriana's body arched as she exploded and gave over to the waves of pleasure that made her body tremble over and over again,soon Max joined her in her climax.Their bodies were pressed together, fitting like a tight clove,their labored breathing was the only thing she could hear,her head was resting between his neck and shoulder while she got her breathing under control, they were both sweaty.When their bodies were cooled she lifted her head to face him,the need to have him again was still strong he was still hard and deep inside of her.She wonder what he was thinking when his hand moved up to cup her breast, closing her eyes she sighed and wished she could stay like this in his arms forever.Max stroked her long hair loving the feel of it as it thread through his fingers,he's never had such a strong connection with any woman as he does with Adriana."I knew we would be good together."
"Stop defending her!You're my husband.It's her fault if she hadn't come into our lives none of this would've happen we would be happy.""That's not true.We broke up long before I married her.You also married and the baby you lost wasn't mine.""No,you lying to me."She looked so devastated Adriana felt sorry for her."I'm not."Max said."Why Max."She finally said after a while."Why her and not me?""Because I love her Marcella,whatever we had is over. Adriana is the love of my life and the mother of my kids.I've moved on so should you.""I can't live without you Max I love you.Please don't do this.""I don't love you,I love Adriana and that will never change.""No,you don't mean that.She forced you to say all this things didn't she.Didn't you!"She flung at Adriana."She didn't force me to say anything.Marcella you not well." His tone soften up a bit."You need help and I'll happily give it to you.Does your family know you here.""Don't touch me!"She snapped when he wanted to grab her ar
"Why did you do that?"She asked."It's late,and I'm enjoying my wife in my arms."She buried her face in his neck his scent surrounding her."It could be important maybe it's work related besides I know not many people have your personal number."She had a point he thought and on cue it rang again. "Answer."She urged."We almost home and I want you all to myself without any disturbance."He checked to see who it was but the caller id showed unknown."Torrés."He said down the line."Max.."He heard Marcella say on the other end.His whole body became rigid every cell in him turned ice cold. Adriana lifted her head to look at Max when she felt his body stiffen under hers.The look in his eyes was empty and that scared her."I miss you my love."She said in spanish."I miss your arms around me.""How dare you call me."His tone devoid of any emotion Adriana knew he was talking to Marcella."We could've been so happy together,we still can be.Don't you want me.Don't you love me anymore?""Goodbye Ma
On the other hand she doesn't want to worry Max more than he already is,that's the only reason she was biting her tongue and not saying anything.Her babies are growing so fast they are four months and feeding like there's no tomorrow Max was proud that they are growing by day he's really looking forward in teaching the boys all the guy stuff.Tonight Michelle will stay longer to assist Maria with the triplets Max had said they don't have to stay long.When Heather had seen the kids on her two day visit in Florida she had been in awe of them even telling Adriana that her daughter will date one of the boys when they'll be grown or both Adriana had laughed at the comment.She had also appreciated the fact that Heather didn't probe or ask questions regarding the Max,Marcella saga, walking over to her dresser she put on her diamond earrings with matching necklace that Max has gifted her for their one year wedding anniversary.He casually strolled into the bedroom she saw he was putting on t
"You won't because I'm never letting you go."He promised gently he tilt her chin to look at him."I won't ever allow anyone to harm you in any way."His mouth swooped down to claim hers in a tender soft kiss as always she was lost in an instant."Will I ever get enough of you."She groaned when they pulled apart.He chuckled."Even I cannot get enough of you.""My life.My everything."She tenderly stroked his cheek."How about we leave for a couple of days.Just us,me you and the kids let's get away from all this,to a place where no one will find us.""As much as the idea entices we both know Amara isn't strong enough to travel far.""I just want things to go back to the way they were.""Me too sweetheart and I promise you we will go back to the way things were.""What are we gonna do about Marcella?"She asked."First of all there is no 'we' I'll handle everything on my own I'm not going to put you in harms way.The kids still need you and so do I.""You really think she will hurt me?""When
Adriana was speechless hearing Max confess his love for her so openly left her numb,if she has ever doubt his love for her she now heard with her own ears to what extend Max loves her.A love as theirs only comes once and she was honoured that a man such as him loves her the way he does."That's love my friend it makes you forget about what's right or wrong when it comes to the people you love."Sam responded."I never thought I'd ever see you fall in love.""Well I guess there's a woman for every man out there.""And Adriana is that woman for you.""She's more than that and I'll do anything to prove to her how much I love her and will never betray her or her trust.Finding Marcella is crucial I know she won't just give up on me not until Adriana is out of the picture.She tried to break us up and didn't succeed one thing is certain she will try something else.""I'll dig further see if I can't find anything else.Why don't you take Adriana and the kids away for a while until we have found
Max had fetched the triplets around dawn when they had began to cry now all three of them were lying between them,she smiled as she gazed down at their sleeping forms.Bright morning light was shining through the windows their dad looked irresistible not able to resist she touched his cheek and allowed her hand to trail down his bare chest,she's had him the whole night and still her hunger to have him was fierce."The triplets are here,unless if you prepared for them to find their parents in a compromising position I'd advise you to stop."He said facing her with that sexy grin."You so delectable it's not my fault I cannot have enough of you."He grabbed her wrist and brought her hand close to his lips Adriana's toes curled when his breath lightly caressed her fingers,automatically her eyes fell shut when he kissed her hand.Why should he have a right to make her feel this way."I love how you respond every time I touch you."He murmured against her knuckles."Your touch is intoxicating,I
"Morning."She flashed him that gorgeous smile every bone in his body melt,will he ever get used to her beauty."Max?"He heard her say."What is it."His tone not too gentle he cursed himself when he saw her flinch the confusion clear in her eyes he went over to the closet when he returned she was standing at the foot of the bed softly stroking Amara's back,her night dress left little to his already lustful imagination and thoughts good thing he was fully clothed."Max?"The tenderness in her voice forced him to look at her."I'm sorry,I didn't have a great night.""Is that all."She probe,she could see the hesitation in his eyes when he blinked it was gone."Is something bothering you.""No."He eventually said."I'm late for work."He leaned closer and kissed Amara before she could say anything he was gone. Adriana wonder what happened for him to snap like that she hopes everything was okay at work.He didn't even kiss her goodbye when he left which made her worry even further.Has he heard f
"I have to take care of some work I'll join you later."Max said the second they stepped into the house."Okay."She replied and proceeded upstairs,firstly she checked on the boys they were sleeping soundly.In their room she slowly got undressed she headed over to her closet and slipped on her night dress.She was exhausted, she hasn't even went by the hospital to see Amara today, her baby was coming home in a weeks time and she was excited they will finally be together all of them and she cannot wait.She went to lay down but after an hour of tossing and turning she gave up and got out of bed wearing her shoes and taking the baby monitor she went outside maybe a walk on the beach will help clear her mind. She wonder how her life would've turned out if she hadn't met Max, where would she and Amelia be.He really has turned her whole world upside down,she never imagined she would love someone the way she loves him.Was it even possible to love anyone this much...so strongly?She sighed deep
She went to bed alone that night and couldn't shut a wink,Max didn't come to bed until early morning he didn't touch her neither did he sleep under the sheets,but she could still feel his body heat warming her up.She wanted to turn and reach out to him but didn't,eventually she fell asleep.The next morning her phone ringing woke her up she saw it was Cameroon."Cammy?"She murmured."Morning and sorry for calling so early I just want to hear how you holding up."She sat upright."I'm fine?What's wrong?""I guess you haven't read the morning paper or watched the news."Cameroon said.Adriana was instantly awake."No,I haven't.What happened?""I hate to be the bearer of bad news.""Spit it out already!"She anxiously said."There are pictures of Max and Marcella all over the news and paper,it's front page news and I hate to say this but it looks bad Adriana."Without saying anything she dropped the call and switched on the television the first thing she saw was a picture of Max and Marcella n
