Nathan's POV“Ok, Amelie, let’s go,” I grab her by the hand.“What? Where are we going?” She asks, puzzled.“Well, first, we’re going to take Grandfather back to his room,” I advise. “Then you and I have a date planned.”“But I want to be here when Zander returns from surgery,” Amelie states.“You will be. I spoke with Dr. Carrera earlier this morning. He said Zander won’t return to his room until at least 4:30 pm. So that looks like we have more than six hours to kill,” I answer.“Where are we going?” She questions.I push Grandfather towards the door, “Follow me, and you’ll find out.”Amelie starts following me down the hallway, and I look back at her. She’s probably not prepared for the day I will give her today, but I want to spoil her and pamper her. She needs to relax, and she’s definitely going to do that. I smile at her, and she looks curious.After we get Grandfather settled and say our goodbyes, I lead Amelie to the elevators by the hand. We get into the elevator, and I pres
Amelie’s POV“What?” I ask, puzzled.He holds out his hand to me, and I tentatively take it. We head through a set of glass doors, and the smell is overwhelming. A strong odor of sulfur and earth hits my nose. I then realize there is a massive pool of mud.“Mud?” I question.“Yes,” Nathan smiles, “mud.”“Amelie,” Charlotte says, “we’ll get you in first. Please remove your robe.”I shyly untie my robe; Charlotte holds it up and gives me some privacy as I slowly descend into the mud. I still hold my arm across my exposed chest as a precaution. I feel Nathan’s gaze on my back as I enter the mud pit. The sensation is nothing like I’ve ever felt before. Warm and squishy mud slowly overtakes my senses. I’m covered up past my breasts, thank goodness. Nathan has entered right after me. I’m a little self-conscious about being topless, but the mud is so thick I’m sure Nathan can’t see anything, plus I have my back to him.“Turn around,” Nathan requests.I hesitate to turn but then spin aroun
Nathan’s POVI turn my head as Amelie slips off her robe. Damn. I’m greeted by the most perfect perk ass I’ve ever seen in my life. Would it be wrong if I were to get up and bite it? I bit my lip and let out a faint cough.Both massage therapists enter the room and dim the lights. I hear the therapist speaking to Amelie and can’t believe it when she says she has never had a massage before. The way she carries herself, I always forget that she had a completely different upbringing from mine. She’s so elegant, charming, and refined. I make a mental note to ensure she’s booked for a weekly massage.Wait a minute, is that a male massage therapist she has? I requested a female one for her. No matter how professional he is, there is no way another man is rubbing his hands all over my Amelie. I motioned to Bernard, my concierge, and whispered in his ear. He motions for the therapist to switch places.The therapist starts the soft music, and I try to relax and enjoy the massage. Try is the op
Amelie’s POVCharlotte and Bernard walk into the treatment room, “Ms. Cavanaugh, Dr. Michaels, please follow us to your private dining area,” Bernard instructs.Nathan lifts my hand to his lips, “Come, sweetheart, you need to see this view.”Okay, I know it's all for the show, but I like Nathan's attention. At least I can pretend he has feelings for me.Nathan leads me out to a patio, and the view is spectacular. I walk to the edge of the patio and gasp at the view. A pristine beach is dotted with people walking in the sand, and the waves crash against the shoreline. I can smell the mix of salty sea air and beautiful primrose planted around the patio. It’s a lovely day at the end of November. The sun is shining brightly, and the weather is unseasonably warm—just a light chill in the breeze. I could picture how busy the beach would be in the summer. Families play on the beach and in the ocean, and everyone laughs and smiles while enjoying the time spent with loved ones. Would I ever
Amelie’s POVWe arrive back at the hospital after another wonderful helicopter ride. I am so thankful for everything Nathan did for me today. I feel so relaxed and centered. I also feel so much more connected to Nathan. Spending time with him is so easy. I fall more for him with every minute I’m in his presence.“Amelie,” Nathan said, holding out his hand to me, “are you coming?”“Of course,” I answered.He leads me down the stairs from the roof and into the elevator. We arrive at the VIP ward just in time to see Dr. Carrera standing at the ward desk.“Dr. Carrera,” Nathan exclaimed.“Ahh, Dr. Michaels, and Ms. Cavanaugh, just the people I want to see.”“Hi, Dr. Carrera,” I said nervously, “Please tell me everything is ok with Zander.”“Ms. Cavanaugh, everything is excellent with your brother.” He replied. “Zander came through the surgery with flying colors.”I jumped and hugged Dr. Carrera, “Thank you so much! I owe you everything!”“Amelie, don’t break the surgeon,” Nathan laughed.
Nathan’s POVI have to admit I miss Amelie. I haven’t seen her in two days. On Tuesday and Wednesday, Samuel and I had to fly out to Seattle to finalize the three acquisitions. To our surprise, on Wednesday, before we left, we secured two more financial companies that had approached us for mergers. It was a successful trip all around.Amelie had thrown herself into studying for her finals as soon as we got home Monday evening from the hospital. We had been texting back and forth for a couple of days, and I found it so easy to talk to her, whether by phone or text. There was never an awkward pause in the conversation.Zander continued to improve at a rapid pace. Dr. Carrera had said that because he was a top-tier athlete, his recovery would be a quick one. They did, however, want to keep him in the hospital for one to two weeks to make sure everything was going well. I honestly think grandfather had something to do with that because he enjoyed hanging around Zander so much that he was
Nathan’s POVAmelie looks so happy. As the plane lands, she is staring out the window, beaming with a wide smile on her face.Once we’re at the hangar, Captain Thomas comes out of the cockpit.“Thank you so much, Captain Thomas,” Amelie says and hugs him.Captain Thomas laughs, “You’re welcome.”We head to the waiting convertible.“A Lamborghini?” Amelie yelps.“I thought my queen needed a hot-looking chariot,” I mused.“Nathan, you’re so over the top with spoiling me!” Amelie blurted out.“Just you wait,” I smirked.We take off from the hangar and head towards the Las Vegas strip. Amelie’s hair is blowing in the breeze, and she sings along to the radio, which ironically plays Elvis’ Viva Las Vegas. We made a quick stop at the Welcome to Las Vegas sign, and a nice couple offered to take our picture. We get back in the car, and Amelie quickly sends the picture to Tiff. Her text notification goes off in less than 30 seconds.Amelie’s POVTiff: What the heck?Amelie: I know, right?Tiff:
Nathan’s POVAmelie is so adorable when she’s flustered. So, she likes my body? That’s good to know. She looks so incredibly sexy in that red dress. I kind of wish I was ripping it off of her.Focus, Nathan.I finish getting my tux on and head out to the living room area. I didn’t have to wait very long for Amelie. She appears out of the bedroom, looking like a total goddess. She has her luscious brown hair cascading in face-framing curls, and her makeup is subtle but accentuates her natural beauty—that red dress, phew, that red dress. The only word for her is stunning.“Amelie, you look absolutely stunning,” I exclaimed.“You don’t look too shabby yourself, Nathan,” she says with a big grin.“Shall we?” I signal to the door.“We shall,” she responds.We head down the elevator to the lobby and then out to the limo, waiting outside. I swear Amelie turned every single guy's head in that lobby. She really is a natural beauty. I mean inside and out. Her personality and charm are exuded in
Amelie’s POVI can’t believe we’re in California. I’ve always wanted to go. The limo took us straight to the amusement park. As soon as we arrived, we were greeted by a personal concierge that Nathan had hired to give us a VIP tour of the park, along with a photographer to accompany us.“But first,” Nathan said, grinning. “You need something special.”“What?” I asked.“These,” he stated, and handed me a bag.I opened it and squealed. “These are the Vera Wang wedding mouse ears!” I cried. I jumped up and hugged Nathan tightly.I had seen them in a magazine. I knew they were a hefty price.“And I guess I should put mine on,” Nathan smirked, pulling out the groom's ears, which were a baseball-style cap with ears and a bow tie.“Look at my handsome groom,” I said, smiling.“Look at my beautiful bride,&rd
Amelie’s POVI had the best sleep ever in our bed as a married couple. It makes me giddy just thinking that is the way it is now. I feel like I need to pinch myself to see if it’s real. Unfortunately, the alarm clock that rang bright and early due to our early flight time proved to me I wasn’t dreaming. In fact, it wasn’t even bright. It felt like the middle of the night because the sun wasn't up yet.Nathan’s arms weren’t around me when I woke up. The room was still dark. I got up and headed to the bathroom. He wasn’t in there either. He must have gotten up early to finish some work in the den, I thought to myself. I hopped in the shower and then got dressed in a sundress and some wedge sandals. The only clue Nathan had given me the night before was to dress for comfort and a warm destination. Hence, the sundress in New York, in the middle of winter.I quickly blow-dried my hair, brushed my teeth, and appl
Nathan’s POVI can’t believe I’m taking my wife home to our place. It seems so surreal. It’s been less than 24 hours since we declared our love for each other, and I already think we have an unbreakable bond. I know that sounds unbelievable, but I’m getting rid of the contract.We arrived home and took the elevator up to our floor. I punch in the code and then lift Amelie bridal style.“Welcome home, Mrs. Michaels,” I stated.“Nathan,” she giggled.“Another threshold. The start of our new life in our home,” I said with a grin.“Nathan, that’s a sweet thing to say,” Amelie said, smiling.“It’s the truth,” I said as I walked through the door.Amelie gasped. There were white lilies all over the penthouse.“Did you do this?” Amelie asked.“No, it wasn’t me,” I responded.I place Am
Nathan’s POVAmelie has been hugging her brother for ten minutes now.“You know I’m only going to be away for two weeks, right?” Amelie said, reminding her brother. “You can call me if you need anything at all. I mean anything.”“Ame, I’m not going to call you on your honeymoon,” Zander replied. “Grandfather will take good care of me.”Amelie looked over at Grandfather. “I know this is hard for you, Amelie,” Grandfather spoke.“I’ve never been away from him for more than a day,” Amelie said nervously.“I will take great care of him. I promise, Amelie,” Grandfather informed her. “Go have a great trip with your new husband.”“Okay,” Amelie sighed, then turned her attention to Biscuit, who was in Morgan’s arms. “Are you sure you’re ok taking Biscuit for a week?”“Yes, I w
Nathan’s POVI guess that blanket needs to go in the laundry. I had to use it to clean up Amelie after our “wine tasting” in the cellar. Amelie is driving me straight to sex addiction classes. Any time I’m alone with her, all I want to do is be inside her. To be as close to her as humanly possible.Now, I have to get through dinner with my family and friends before I get to take her home.“You need to stop attacking me in unusual places,” Amelie giggled.“I didn’t hear you protesting against it,” I chuckled.Amelie went to say something, then paused.“That’s what I thought, kitten,” I smirked.“You are annoying when you gloat,” Amelie teased.“I’ll gloat all over you, angel,” I laughed.“Baby!” Amelie squealed.I just laughed, picked her up, and twirled her around.“You make me so happy, A
Nathan’s POVAmelie was thrilled with Biscuit. It’s the best feeling in the world to make her smile. I think it’s now my new mission in life. She and Zander played with Biscuit for over an hour inside the mansion, then took him outside to do his business and play in the snow. The amount of squeals of joy that Amelie made brought me happiness.Now, we’re sitting by the fire snuggling, and Biscuit is passed out, tired on his dog bed in front of the fire.I look up to see Dante, Dutton, Morgan, and Kimmy coming in the door. Dante and Kimmy were holding hands, which I loved to see.“Hey guys, where’s Paul?” I asked.“He decided to head home to Buffalo for Christmas,” Kimmy said. “I guess his Grandmother isn’t doing too well.”“Oh no, that’s not good,” Amelie sympathized.“Oh My God! Is that a puppy?” Morgan shrieked and ran off to see Bis
Nathan’s POVWe barely had enough time to straighten ourselves before arriving at Grandfather’s front door. Luckily, Amelie had a brush and a clip to put her hair up because without, she had the just fucked look because I had gripped her hair so much. Of course, she stepped out of the limo, looking like a fucking goddess with her loose bun.Niles greeted us at the door and let us know that Grandfather and Zander were in the living room.“Ame!” Zander said, his eyes lighting up when he saw Amelie. “Merry Christmas.”Zander raced over to hug Amelie. I can imagine this is a totally different type of Christmas from what they had in the past. I want to make it extra special for Amelie and Zander.Grandfather stood up as we approached the seating area.“Amelie, Nathan, Merry Christmas, kids,” Grandfather grinned, leaning in for hugs.“Merry Christmas, Grandfather,” we both replied
Amelie’s POVI think I might not be able to walk by the time the honeymoon is over. Nathan is insatiable. Not that I’m complaining. He is an incredible lover. He always makes sure I’m taken care of before he finishes—such a true gentleman.After breakfast, we barely made it back to the room before we were stripping off our clothes again.“I’m sure Grandfather would understand us being a bit late,” Nathan laughed.Then, he proceeded to bend me over the bed and jackhammer me until I came so hard I saw stars and squirted all over the bed and carpet. I tried to wipe it up as much as I could.Nathan promised to leave a big tip with the apology note I wrote for the maid.“Amelie, you are so adorable. Only you would leave an apology note for that,” Nathan chuckled. “So fucking adorable.”We are now on our way in the limo to Grandfather’s mansion. Marcus is off today, so
Nathan’s POV“I love you, too, Nathan,” Amelie said breathlessly.“I’ll be right back,” I advised. “I’m going to go grab a condom.”“No,” Amelie replied.“No? I questioned.“I’m on the pill,” Amelie stated. “I have been since I was 14 years old to regulate my period.”“I can still wear a condom, though,” I said.“I don’t want you to,” Amelie expressed. “I want to feel you fully.”I smiled at her. “Amelie, you don’t understand what this means to me. You willing to give yourself fully to me means everything to me.”“I’m yours, Nathan,” Amelie said, reaching up to caress my cheek.I started kissing her again and ran my hands over her body.I reached between her legs just to make sure she was still wet enough. She was dripping wet for
