153Hunter's POV I confirmed with a bob of head, "Yes. My wife's been warning me about her.""Your ex-wife, you mean." The sly smirk he gave me made my fingers curl into a fist. That look on the bastard's face said that he was well versed with the ups and downs in my life. I saw recognition in his eyes, as if he'd done a quick check on my personal life before coming here. Even if he didn't, I shouldn't be surprised that he corrected me. After all, who wasn't aware of the mistake I committed on the night of my second anniversary! It had been discussed and gossiped about nationwide for months. It still does. If it wasn't for the stack of bundles I hurled at every news channel's way, they would have continued to talk about it still. "Yes, my ex-wife who was my wife back then but I didn't listen to her." I said, not hiding the distaste from my tone. "What specifically did your ex-wife warn you about?"I stared into my palms as I recalled all Claire's told me. "That Zara's not who sh
154Hunter's POVWhile I was amazed at the discovery that my wife could ride a bike, right now I was completely stumped and staring at her skills. She was handling the bike smoothly like it was as easy as icing a cake with a buttering knife. I could see her fingers easing and tightening on the throttle as she sped up on the road and sped down to abide by the traffic rules or before a speedbreaker appeared.This was the side I have never noticed her having. Was Claire always this wild? Always feeling this free with people she loved? If yes, why did I never observe this side of her. Was I not the man she loved with an obsession? I ogled at her profile while a burst of agony spread through my chest. I guess I was too busy with work, too blind to take note of her.Wildness beat like a pulse at my throat as I suppressed the urge to tilt her head and take her lips for a wild kiss. Her hair flowed across from my face. I inhaled the scent of her shampoo and clenched my fingers into a fist. N
155Hunter's POV A breeze rolled over and the water rustled like soft music to the ears. My body was too painfully craving to indulge in foreplay. I couldn't help the aggression when I parted Claire's thighs with force. She yelped but the excitement in her eyes couldn't be missed.She had propped herself up on her elbows as her hair freely floated around her fate. Some of them covered her eyes. I stalled for a second to clear her vision. I wanted her to look at me while I pounded into her yet again with the force of the animal I carried within.Tremors ran through her thighs and I could feel it under my palms. I caressed my flat palm on her scorching flesh before slamming my full length inside her in one forceful thrust. Her bosoms heaved as her head fell back. I stayed in unmoving for a few minutes to feel the clenching of her muscles around me. The feeling was hot and plummeted me into a pit of ecstasy.Then I started moving as Claire pressed her bóóbs together. She pinched her nip
156Hunter's POVI laughed in reply as I walked into the chilly water. Only the surface was warm, but the moment I took a dip, the warmth scattered around us, letting the cold take over fully.Claire was clinging to me like a baby Koala. Her shaking thighs kept her firmly against my body as I cleaned her back. I massaged her buttcheeks gently and tried to venture down to her pulsating slit."Don't you dare!" She growled near my ear as her eyes seared on my face warningly. "Don't even think of taking your fingers anywhere near my core, Hunter. You're denied access for a month after what you've done to me in the last twenty-four hours.""You weren't complaining when I was tearing your pússy apart." My dirty words activated a shiver up her spine.She tried to keep her face indifferent, but the scarlet in her cheeks gave away her sweet embarrassment."But I'm complaining now, and you better take heed. No, means no." "Alright, dove. It's not like I was going to do anything. I just wanted
157Hunter's POV I promise to you, Claire, that I will personally investigate this matter besides the private detective.Later on, we went back to Claire's home on my bike. She was drained to shreds and so I had to ride. Upon arriving, Claire hugged my waist tightly and whined like a tired kid who hasn't gotten proper sleep. "I can't walk. Carry to my room." I would have done that even if she hadn't verbalized it. I picked her up after giving the keys to the guard and carried her inside the mansion. It was lunchtime and my stomach was cursing me for listening to my díck over its growl for food. I strode to the kitchen as I pecked Claire's forehead."I want to sleep." She said in a baby tone."Food first. You promised to feed me, remember?""I fed you."What? I stared at her playing with her fingers while my jaw dropped."What did you say?""Nothing," Ethereal flush enhanced her beauty. "I just said feed me sooner so I can retire to bed."As much as I craved to tease her for whisperi
1"You look amazing!" Hunter MacIntyre's compliment sent his wife, Claire's blood coursing in her veins like an awakened river."Thanks," She lowered her head while trying to hide her smile. Today was their second wedding anniversary. Claire was a lucky girl to marry the man she loved. She felt her nerves twisting in yummy delight. Her husband was a substitute to slow torture with that look of his. With that tailored suit clinging to his body, he forced eyes to take a look at him. Her gaze traveled to his brown, strong throat, then towards the deliciously straight mouth and up to his black eyes; dark and hooded and so full of secrets. They watched her intently causing her breathing to catch.Hunter hugged her from the back and snuggled her bare shoulder. He enveloped her right in his hold, enjoying the feeling of her being in his arms. "I can't wait to tell the world that I am falling for my own wife." Today was their anniversary. And the day couldn't get any better. Claire woke
2Claire felt exposed to danger. Like a baby bird left in the open. She dragged shallow breaths as she watched her husband hug his ex-girlfriend possessively. He whispered something in Zara's ear, making her eyes water. He wiped them with his hand. By this time, all the cameramen focused on them. Gasps erupted around Claire as Hunter's admirers began to gossip about it. "Oh goodness! Isn't that Zara Levine, Hunter's ex-girlfriend?" "Christ, she looks more beautiful than before!" "Look at Hunter's expression. He's all desperate around her. Damn, he's kissing her!" "They look so good together. But I pity Claire. She must have waited for today wholeheartedly and it had to be ruined like this. Her husband is kissing his ex-girlfriend in front of her. That's insane!" "But why is Zara back? She was married to another man, wasn't she? What's this now?" All the remarks around her made her body heavy. Claire was rooted in her spot. "Claire, let's go inside." Her brother tried to pull he
3 When Claire shook the hazy veil of darkness and came to the surface, the first face she saw was of her mother. Andrea's eyes were red and cheeks flushed. She was in the same dress she donned for Claire and Hunter's wedding anniversary. It was visible just by looking at her that she didn't leave her daughter's side even for one second. "Laire, baby," Andrea impatiently leaned towards her daughter and cupped her face. A tear of relief trickled from her left eye. She kissed her forehead and immediately looked over her shoulder to shout, "Claire is awake, Dominic!" She turned to her daughter again. She removed hair from her eyes and smiled, "How are you feeling now, honey?" She touched her swollen lip gently. Claire just stared back. Her mother's tears made her remember her own. Then it returned to her mind like a slow memory returning to a person suffering with amnesia. Pain, hot and raw, settled in her chest. Claire recalled how her husband left her outside the hotel they
