Alessandro’s POV “My dear, I'm even thinking of doing something,” Grandma uttered, as we both walked down the stairs into the dining room, with her hand in mine.“What is that, ma?” I asked, helping her onto a dining chair. “I want to build a swimming pool and I'm also planning to renovate the entire house,” She grinned, as a maid dished her a plate of seafood stew with boiled corn.When the maid was about to dish me a plate, I shook my head and motioned her to leave.Bowing, she exited the dining room and I swerved my concentration back to Grandma.“Why? Are you expecting a visitor?” I asked.“No,” She said. “Liam and Leo told me that they want a swimming pool and a bouncing castle. I've already installed a bouncing castle in the backyard today, so what's left now is the swimming pool. And that should be ready within a week. I want only the best things for my babies.”Smiling, I shook my head as she spoke, clearly excited to devote her attention to something apart from chemotherapy
Catherine’s POV “Thanks, Al,” I uttered, sitting on the dining chair that Alessandro had pulled out of the table for me.“You're welcome, baby,” He replied, and took his own seat.“I love the interior decor of this place,” I said, looking around. “It has this homey feel that gives you instant comfort. I hope their food doesn't disappoint my taste buds.”The restaurant was built with marbles with wide antique mirrors hung on the wall.A large chandelier that took the shape of a globe was also mounted on the ceiling, which gave it an ornate yet minimalist aesthetic.“Let's hope so,”Almost immediately, a waitress walked up to us and we placed our orders, after scanning the menu code.I ordered some spaghetti aglio e olio with asparagus and bacon while Alessandro ordered Fettuccine Alfredo with grilled shrimp.For our drink, we both ordered non-alcoholic grape wine because we still had to drive back to our respective place of works.In contrast to my earlier fears, the food was quite del
Alessandro’s POV “Mummy, hurry,” Liam yelled. “Daddy is here!”Chuckling, I hugged Leo and him then pressed kisses to their foreheads.They both darted me affectionate looks as I placed them on the floor.“How are you, sweeties?” I asked. “Where's mummy?”“We are fine,” Leo responded. “Mummy is upstairs dressing up. We have a new Miss in our class, I kind of like her because she doesn't force me to do arithmetic.” I smiled, recalling how Leo hated Mathematics and anything related to it, to a fault unlike his twin who loved it.Thankfully, he made up for it by being a genius painter.For his age, he was very talented and I couldn't be prouder of him.“Is that so?” I asked. “What is her name?”“Miss Sofia,” Liam responded. “She is very tall and she's kind.”“That's good to hear,” I supplied, ruffling their hair.Just then, Catherine walked down the stairs looking gorgeous as always in a pair of straight leg jeans and a white tee with a pink, flowery jumper.Her shoulder bob had grown
Catherine’s POV A smile of relief tugged at my lips as Alessandro approached the visitors' area of the large hall at Leo and Liam's kindergarten.Today was the twins' kindergarten graduation, and j couldn't be happier and prouder of them.“Thank goodness, I made it,” Alessandro said, pressing a kiss to my lips and taking his seat on the empty chair beside me that I had reserved for him.“What happened?” I asked, as he retracted the pamphlet of the ceremony from me.“The shareholders meeting lasted way longer than I thought it would,” He said. “I had to postpone it till tomorrow because it seemed as though it wouldn't end today.”“Those old men can surely argue, huh?” I chuckled, and he just sighed.“Where are the little graduands by the way?” He glanced at the empty podium. “I don't see them anywhere.”I was about to respond to him when the graduands of the day marched out, all smiles, in their little navy graduation robes and caps.Leo sighted me and his grin widened as he gave me a
Catherine’s POV Staring at my reflection in the mirror, my lips curved upward in a satisfied grin.Then, I stepped into the walk-in closet adjoining the bedroom to retrieve the box of surprise that I had purchased a few days ago.Alessandro and I were going to see a movie at the cinema today, and I wanted to gift him an enticing and unforgettable experience.Smiling, I opened the box to reveal a vibrating pussy plug, with its remote control.He was in for a thrilling adventure today.I then sauntered to the bathroom, rolled my dress up, and inserted the sex toy into my pussy, amidst a series of moaning.Fuck, the toy wasn't even activated yet and I was about to burst with an orgasm.I held onto the sink for some seconds in order to regain my composure before straightening up and exiting the bathroom.Upon entering the room, I met Alessandro standing in the middle of the room, a wry smirk sitting on his devilishly handsome face.“What?” I asked, as he walked up to me, and hooked his a
Alessandro’s POV “This salad is so good,” Catherine hummed, taking a bunch of grapes from the glass bowl and plucking from it to eat.“It is,” I agreed, biting into the succulent flesh of the mango in my hold.As I watched Catherine eat the tiny, purple fruit, a lewd thought struck me but I shook it off.Today was for enjoying nature and the beautiful atmosphere of Barbados, and not fucking.We had done that throughout last night.Catherine and I were currently on a getaway in Barbados, as she was currently on a two weeks paid leave.A new neurosurgeon had also been employed at the hospital some days ago, which gave her the freedom to leave the country, without worrying about any patient that was in need of an emergency surgery.As I was my own employer, I decided to also take some weeks off, in order to focus on our budding relationship.Catherine soon finished eating the grapes and grabbed a banana.The banana was quite long and in an instant, the lascivious imagination was back, a
Catherine’s POV “Hi, babies,” I waved, as the twins smiled at Alessandro and I, then waved.“Hi, mummy and daddy,” They cheered in unison, which made Alessandro and I smile in adoration.“How have you been?” Alessandro asked. “I hope you're not giving grandma too much trouble.”Grandma appeared then, a tiny frown etched onto her features. “Why would my adorable great-grandchildren ever cause me trouble?”“Good day, grandma,” I greeted, beaming, and her face melted into a warm smile, as Leo and Liam wrapped their arms around her.“Good day, Cathie dear. I hope you're enjoying your well-deserved vacation.” She said, and I nodded.“Yes, ma,” I responded. “How are you doing, ma?”“I'm doing great, my dear, thanks,” She said. “I hope Alessandro isn't disturbing you too much.”This time, it was Alessandro's turn to frown as he defended himself. “You don't think highly of me, grandma.”“Whatever,” She scoffed, rolling her eyes, then darted him a beam, within a second. “I hope you are enjoyi
Alessandro’s POV “This Bajan macaroni pie is so fucking good,” Catherine moaned, chewing the food. “Why did I wait so long before ordering it? Why did I ever doubt the reviews online?”“I told you,” I chuckled, wiping the pie crumbs on the side of her mouth. “But you didn't listen.”We were currently having lunch at a beach restaurant in Barbados.In response, she just shrugged as she happily hummed while devouring the Barbadian meal.I loved how she always became a baby whenever she was with me.It made me find her more endearing than she already was.Grabbing a bottle of Maudy, I uncorked it then brought it to my lips to sip it.The tangy cinnamon flavor was out of this world, and I loved that it didn't contain alcohol.“Can I try it?” She motioned to my plate of flying fish and cou cou.Huffing, I fed her the food, and watched as her eyes rolled back, probably as a result of the spicy deliciousness of the meal, as she swallowed it.Earlier, I had asked her if I could taste her foo
ONE YEAR LATERAllison's POV “Dinner is ready,” I announced, bringing out the tray of rotisserie chicken from the oven. “Leo and Aiden, are you done setting the table?”“Yes, baby.”“Yes, mummy.” Father and son replied in unison, as they entered the kitchen.After our wedding, Leo bought a mansion in Canada, and it was there that our little family lived now.He had told me that he decided to make Canada his permanent place of residence because of me. Mu close friends were here, and he didn't want me to be apart from them.Plus, my winery was also here. About a year ago, I finally reisgned from Leo's company and took over running the winery.So far, the experience had been quite exciting and rewarding, albeit challenging sometimes.“Hmm,” Leo closed his eyes and nodded in approval. “It smells so nice in here, my love.”“I eventually made the rotisserie chicken,” I replied, to which Aiden cheered. “with fried rice.”“And I bet it's gonna taste nicer than anything,” Leo said, walking up
Allison's POV “Where are you taking me?” I asked, cuffing my hands around Leo's wrist, as he led me out of the house, with his hands placed on my eyes, obstructing my vision.“It's a surprise, baby.” He said, and I could almost see him grinning mischievously.Three days had passed since our wedding, and in another three days, we were going to leave the country for our honeymoon in Greece.“Here we are,” Leo said, taking his hands off my eyes. “Have a look.”A gasp forced itself out of my throat when I saw a new black Mercedes Benz parked in the driveway, with a white bow taped to the trunk and the headlights.“How do you like it, my love? Is it to your taste?” Leo asked, as I gazed at the car in surprise.“It's perfect,” I whispered, shaking my head in happy disbelief. “I love it.”“I'm glad to hear that, honey,” Leo said, hooking an arm around my waist. “You love the color, right? Or would you like me to get someone to paint it to your desired colour?”“No, I love it like this,” I b
Leo's POV “You have a message,” Liam announced, gesturing to the gift bag he was holding, as he entered the room.Today was D-day. After many years of challenges, trials, and tribulations, Allison was finally going to be my wife just like I had always wanted.I had to pinch myself thrice when I woke up that morning, in order to be sure that I wasn't dreaming and today was really happening.“From who?” I asked, as he handed me the bag.“Allison.”My face softened with a wide grin as I retracted a burgundy velvet box from the bag.“I wonder what this is,” I muttered to myself, as I flipped the box open.My grin widened, to the point where my eyes creased when I saw the contents of the box; it consisted of a golden wristwatch, a pair of golden cufflinks to match with a golden pen.On the three items, my initials–LDS–was intricately inscribed on it.I couldn't help but feel warm and touched by her thoughtful, sentimental gifts, so I decided to forgo my initial choice of cufflinks and wri
Allison's POV“And I'm done,” Ophelia announced, after giving my face a final dab with the beauty blender. “You look ravishing, Allie.”Clasping my hands together to tame my nervous excitement, I breathed out. “So can I open my eyes now?”“Yes, most definitely.”Inhaling sharply, I flapped my eyes open and gasped on seeing my beautiful reflection in the mirror.Ophelia had hearkened my choice and instructions to the very least detail and had done a great job with both my face and hair.My makeup was a natural, dewy look that accentuated and drew more attention to my facial features rather than having a huge slab of foundation pasted on my face while my hair was tossed in a sleek, french bun with a diamond brooch inserted beside it.I looked like a princess who had just stepped out of a fairytale book, and I could barely hide my excitement as I assessed my face, a huge smile plastered to my face.“I look gorgeous,” I said. “You did a wonderful job, Lia, and I don't know if I'm ever gon
Allison's POV As I stepped out of the bathroom after taking a refreshing shower, my phone pinged with an incoming call.On seeing that it was Tasha calling, I smiled before answering the call and pressing the phone to my ear.“Babe, you have to come to the balcony right now,” Tasha started with a tone of urgency. “Something happened.”My heart did a back flip as goosebumps instantly crowded my entire body. “What happened? Is Aiden okay?”“Just come quickly, alright? We are waiting for you.” She said, before hanging up.Swallowing harshly, I flung my phone on the bed before making my way to the closet to grab a casual outfit, while hoping everyone was alright.Fuck, I genuinely hoped nothing bad had happened on the eve of my wedding.That would be a sign of bad luck and I didn't want that. I just wanted to have my happily ever after with Leo, Aiden, and possibly our future children.We were currently lodged in a hotel in Las Vegas, as that was the destination of our wedding.Leo, his
Leo's POV “Stop it, can't you see that Aiden is here?” Allison scolded me, as I slotted my hand beneath her shirt to cup her breasts.The three of us were sitting on a sofabed in the private sitting room of my beach house in Turkey. Three days had passed since I proposed to Allison and we officially became a soon-to-be married couple.The rest of our family were currently at the other side of the beach house. I had designed the building of the beach house in such a way that my little family and I could have our own private time whenever we wanted, without any disturbance.“But his attention is fixated on Mickey mouse. He can't see us.” I argued, sliding my hand in between her legs which earned me a smack on the shoulder followed by a glare.As I made to defend myself yet again, my phone vibrated with a message.Reading through the text message which was sent by my mum, I smiled. “Mum and Dad are going for a walk downtown and they want to take Aiden with them.”“A walk with grandma an
Allison's POV “Baby, you forgot to tie your shoelace properly,” Leo scolded, as we walked out of the garden to have lunch in the balcony.Along with Leo's parents, siblings, sister in law and Aiden, we were currently at Leo's vacation house in Turkey having fun.A week had passed since the twenty seventh wedding anniversary of Leo's parents, and in all honesty, the celebration had yet to end.After the huge party that happened that day, Mr Alessandro and Ma'am Catherine hosted an intimate dinner among thier close family and friends to mark the occasion.Truly, it was good to be wealthy in a classy manner.I had also gotten the opportunity to meet Ma'am Catherine's best friend, Rita, who reminded me so much of an older version of Tasha.Their friendship was really wholesome and cute, and I could only hope Tasha and I turned out like the both of them in the future.As I made to bend down to tie my shoelaces, a quick realization struck me; I was wearing beach slippers and not sneakers o
Allison's POV “Ophelia called just now. They are leaving very soon, so we have to be on our way now.” Leo announced, as I helped Aiden into his shoes.“Alright, we are ready,” I said then averted my gaze to Aiden. “Right, baby?”“Yes, mummy!” He beamed like a Cheshire cat. “We are ready to meet uncle Liam and Aunty Lia.”Today was the twenty-seventh wedding anniversary of Leo's parents, and so, we were currently in America to celebrate the beautiful occasion with them.To me, they were the most adorable couple that I had ever seen and met.They both loved each other so much and Mr Alessandro always seemed to be worshipping the ground his wife stepped on. He looked at her with so much adoration and love and it was just so heartwarming.“Fuck, I can't believe I forgot,” Leo said, moments later as he parked the car in the driveway of the event center. “What did you forget?” I huffed incredulously, to which Leo smiled before pressing a quick, chaste kiss to my lips.“This and I also for
Allison’s POV “You look ravishing, baby,” Leo complimented as he walked into the room, a smirk plastered to his lips as he regarded my body. “Thanks, babe.” I darted him a quick smile before returning my attention to my reflection in the mirror and putting finishing touches to my makeup. I was clad in a figure-hugging lilac dress that stopped past my knees while my feet were slid in a pair of violet heels and my purse was silver. “What do you say we cancel the date and just stay home?” He suggested coming behind me to lock his arm around my waist. “We can always N*****x and chill, my love.” “I'm sorry, horndog but that isn't happening,” I said, then pressed a kiss to the corner of his lips and eased myself out of his hold to grab my purse from the dresser. “By the way, I thought we were meeting at the restaurant. What changed?” “Nothing, I just decided to come pick you and Aiden up.” He shrugged. “And I don't regret changing my mind because I've got a lovely view of your ethereal
