"Like I said I'll let you know."Adriana kept quiet and looked out the window.She has no idea what to make of Max's new behaviour towards them,it's like he has changed in a matter of hours.At the penthouse he excused himself to make a phone call she was in their room playing with Amelia when he appeared."The sitter will be here in ten minutes you might want to come out.""We'll be right out."She took Amelia,climbed off the bed and followed him seconds later the doorbell rang and he went to answer it."Adriana meet Heather she'll take care of Amelia for the night Heather this is my fiancé and our daughter Amelia."Fiancé? Daughter?What was wrong with Max?"Nice to meet you Miss...-""Call me Adriana."She interrupted her."Adriana."She finished."Hey Amelia I'm Heather."She touched Amelia's hand."You want to come to me."She outstretched her arms,Amelia hesitated at first but ended up going."We'll be okay."Heather told them."Max.Why did you tell Heather I'm your fiance and Amelia is your
"How else do you propose I express my gratitude if you want me to stop thanking you."The words were out before she could stop them,she really should learn to watch her mouth in front of this man.Luckily no said anything further and she was grateful,they stopped at a hotel,Max came to open her door putting her hand in his she climbed out.Her whole body turned hot she was flustered and breathless,a porter came to go and park the car.Max hooked her arm through his as they made their way up the steps of the hotel,cameras began to flash around them questions were being asked but Max ignored them he kept on leading her inside.She wonder if he'll inform the media about her and their upcoming wedding.They entered the lobby she saw a receptionist desk he led her passed it beautiful marble tiles on the floor,and high ceilings. Soon they were in a big hall full of men and women,there were also high ceilings in the room with beautiful crystal chandeliers hanging from the ceilings.She saw a big
He was quiet for a while she wonder what was running through his head,he was a closed book she can't read him the only time she can understand what is going through his head is when he talks and she hardly gets anything from that either.Will she ever understand him."Come."He took her glass and gave it to a waiter."Where to?"Surely he wasn't about to take her onto the dance floor,dancing wasn't for her,not that she can't it just wasn't for her."Max,wait,I can't dance.And I'm sure you don't want to be humiliated in front of everyone that's exactly what I'll do."He stopped,and drew her close to him,he took her one hand and placed it on his shoulder,she could feel his warm hand resting on her lower back it spread heat throughout her whole body,next he took her other free hand in his."Trust me."He said."Trust yourself.Let the music guide you and flow through your body,surrender to the music.....to me,look into my eyes and don't break contact the rest will follow."He finished, Adriana no
Taking her silk robe and quickly wrapping it around herself she dashed to the bedroom to attend to her niece.She hasn't seen Max since their night out together two weeks ago,he had sent her a text saying he had to go to Spain urgently and he doesn't know when he'll be back.The penthouse felt so empty without his presence,and she doesn't even want to ask herself why. Since his absence she has started working on getting her shop ready and she's happy to say it was coming along perfectly all that's left to do is get the flowers,she's also gone shopping buying a few dresses,evening gowns and new lingerie along with shoes too.She's looked at a few daycare's for Amelia and found two that she had been comfortable at,after their wedding she will enroll her in one.She paced the floor with Amelia hoping she will go back to sleep but instead it seems to make her more restless.She checked the time and saw it was eight thirty."What's wrong sweetie?"She placed a hand on her forehead to feel if s
Adriana stirred and stretched herself,never before has she felt so rested her eyelids fluttered open and she saw it morning her gaze fell on Amelia she was still asleep.She better get up and quickly take a shower before she was gonna wake up she lifted herself but something heavy around her waist prevented her from getting up.When she looked a soft gasp came from her mouth as she saw Max laying next to her fast asleep and looking so sexy.His arm was resting heavily around her mid-section, how come he was in bed with her?When did he come?What had happened last night?She glanced at herself and saw she was still wearing her robe...thank goodness.Her eyes landed on Max,his hair was loose and his chest was bare her eyes greedily feast on his naked chest,her fingers itched to reach out and feel how his chest hair will feel under her palm her gaze went even lower,her breath caught in her throat.Dear lord help her no matter how hard she was telling herself to look away she couldn't,this man
She watched how he tenderly stroked her chubby cheeks,she tried to put his fingers in her mouth but he replaced it with her feeding cup.Adriana couldn't help but smile at the scene before her eyes,he can make a good,responsible father if he wanted to be she can see that now.Babies has a way of changing us they make us parents,she hadn't known much about children but ever since Amelia had become apart of her every day life she's learned alot on babies and toddlers she had even bought books to get a better understanding of them.Even when Amelia had been teething did she give Adriana a hard time but she made it she almost knows everything about this cute little being,and she cannot wait to learn more,the day she was gonna have one of her own she'll be prepared but unlike Beth she would want to breastfeed her baby,making their bond even stronger."Can I refuse this gift."She asked him."No you can't it's a must."He said."Max...""Adriana."He stood and crossed his arms."Fine,what kind
"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
