Loving Madeline

Chapter 146 - Always Been In Love

Madeline's POV

I woke up in my room covered with my blanket, and I can tell the heavy rain is still pouring outside, and I suddenly sat up as I remember my husband was here in my house. And I realized Hunter must carry me in my room since I couldn't remember. I got up from the sofa and said good night to him, and the last memory I have is he was stroking my hair until I fall asleep, and I smiled as I remember how wonderful it was to be closed to him. I can still smell his masculine scent that always drives me nuts.

I got up from my bed, and I get out of my room faster; and I smiled when I found Hunter sleeping on my couch. I got back to my room and pulled out a blanket from my closet, and I hurried back to the living room, and I spread the blanket over my husband's frame. I felt so tempted to wake him up and ask him to transfer into my bed, but I know it is not yet the right time.

I couldn't stop myself from staring at him for a long while and touched his handsome face and how I missed doing this. He looked so adorable peacefully sleeping, and I froze when I heard him calling my name. And I stopped caressing his handsome face, and I smiled when I realized he was dreaming about me. And I wonder what we were doing in his dream. I watched his angelic face one more time before I decided to go back to my room.

As I lay down on my bed, I can't stop my fingers from touching my lips as I remember the sweet kissed I shared with my husband earlier tonight. And when Hunter kissed my lips, I felt my mouth melt with his, and I have dreamed about it since I left home. It feels like we were kissing for the first time. And I can feel how much I missed all of him, the way his mouth danced with mine is giving me happiness I couldn't explain, and I love the way my husband caressed my body, but I know I need to let him know he is not yet totally forgiven, and he needs to show me that he wants me back in his life for good. 

And I almost laughed when he apologized after kissing me. How could he say sorry when it was the most beautiful thing I can ever have after being away from him for how many days. Every time my husband kisses me, it feels like he can take away all the pain that I have been through, and the way he makes me feel was priceless.

When Hunter asked me if I can give him another chance, and he begged me to come back to him, I felt so happy that finally, we could be together soon. I know I need to go back to our own house to let him know I am willing to give him another chance to love me and give our marriage another opportunity to grow with love and happiness. I understand we need to face his father and wicked siblings together and show them they can never tear us apart. And I want to show them no matter how much they want to separate us, we are going to have a happy family, and I felt so excited that I find it hard to go back to sleep.

The sun is already up when I get up, and I shower, and it took me a long while to choose what outfit to wear because I can't deny it. I want to impress my husband. And when I found the perfect dress, I matched it with my necklace with a heart-shaped pendant given to me by Hunter on our first wedding anniversary. 

I felt so excited to face my husband again, and I hate myself for looking at my reflection in the mirror several times before I got satisfied with my looks; I only put a lip gloss to make me feel more beautiful, but I got frustrated when I couldn't find him in the living room anymore. I found the blanket neatly folded on top of the sofa, and I thought he was only in the bathroom, but I had already searched the entire place. Still, I couldn't find him anywhere, and it made me realized I missed him already, and I hate that he didn't even wake me up before he leaves.

When I go back to the living room and I sat on the sofa, I can still smell him, and it made me miss him more. And a piece of paper caught my attention, and my heart is racing again as I opened the folded paper, and I realized it was Hunter's note for me. I couldn't help but shook my head and smiled as I think how could be his handwriting be so beautiful like him, and my heart is filled with happiness as I read his love note for me.

My sweet Madeline,

Good morning! I don't want to leave without saying goodbye, and I don't want to go without kissing your sweet lips, but I have an early meeting today, but I don't want to disturb your peaceful sleep. I am sorry that I came inside your room and gazed at your beautiful face before I left.

I can't wait to have you sleeping in my arms again. I miss you every waking moment, Madeline. Please forgive me quickly. I hope you will come home soon; I will be waiting for you patiently, loving you more each day. I love you, my beautiful wife. 

Forever yours,

Hunter

I couldn't stop the tears of happiness that fell on my face, and I slowly bring Hunter's love note to my chest as I closed my eyes as I think of his handsome face. I keep on smiling the entire day while I continued applying for a job, and I am no longer surprised when I received another bouquet from my husband. 

I felt so happy when I got emails from the firms I submitted my job applications and my curriculum vitae. I felt delighted to have at least five scheduled job interviews within the week, and I am getting excited about it. And I hope this time, Calixto Morgan will be out of the picture. 

And I am surprised that I saw an unknown landline number calling my phone. And I am enthusiastic to answer the call thinking it was one of the companies I am applying for, and I suddenly felt so thrilled. And I almost laugh when I heard Calixto's voice on the other line, and I couldn't believe he will be calling me at this hour the moment I think about him, and I smiled as I remember how he begged me to have my number when we had our lunch together yesterday.

"Hello, Madeline!" He said.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Morgan, is there anything I can help you with?" I asked, and I am grinning from ear to ear.

"Someone wants to talk with you." He said on the other line, and before I can answer him, I already heard Hunter's beautiful voice on the other line that made me have knots on my stomach.

"Hi, I miss you, Maddie, and please give me your phone number because Calixto won't give it to me without asking permission from you even if I begged him that it was between life and death." My husband said, and I laughed because I remember I told Cal not to give my number to Hunter.

"You have to gain it, Hunter," I said as I grinned.

"Okay, tell me what to do, Madeline." He declared.

"It is only simple; you have to come to my house right now," I said because I know he can't leave his office. After all, I am aware of how busy he was.

"That is unfair, Madeline; you know I have an important meeting with our Japanese clients today." He replied, and I can hear the frustrations in his voice.

"Well, then I am sorry, I won't give you my number unless you are here thirty minutes from now," I said, and I hang up the phone before he can even say another word, and I turn off my phone while I was grinning because I am sure there is no way he can come to my place within thirty minutes.

"It is payback time, my dear husband," I mumbled as I continue reading my emails, and I am shocked after thirty minutes to find my husband standing on my doorstep. And I couldn't fathom how did he get so fast when his office is so far away, and with heavy traffic, he couldn't make it in two hours.

"How?" I asked in disbelief, and his intense gaze made me felt like jelly, and my entire body weakened, and my husband suddenly pinned me to the wall. And he started kissing me, and no matter how I want to stop him, I couldn't make it because I am too excited to feel his lips on me, and the way my husband devour my mouth is enough to tell me that he missed me so much. And I couldn't stop myself from moaning as he sneaked his tongue inside my mouth while he pulled me closer to him.

My husband trailed kisses on my neck down to my collarbone and up again to my throat, and I love the way he showered me with butterfly kisses that made my entire body felt so alive, and when he nibbled my ear, I can't stop myself from moaning again. My husband's touch ignited the burning sensation within me, and we had a long passionate kiss before he finally let me go, and we were both gasping for air after our mind-blowing kiss.

"You make me so crazy, Madeline, and from now on, I will find any means to be with you because I will show you how much I want to save our marriage and how serious I am in winning your love back. I love you, Madeline, and I will do everything I can to make you fall in love with me again." He said in a raspy voice, and he kissed me one more time before he touched my face and tucked in some strand of my hair that covered my face at the back of my ear. And my heart swells with happiness, and I want to tell Hunter there is no need to make me fall for him because I had always been in love with my husband.
