Burning Passion: Love Never Die
We can continue to sleep after we come back from the airport.â
âMmmâ¦â she muttered, and buried her cheek deeper in his chest.
âOne more minute,â she said.
âHoney, your mother-in-Lawâs plane is about to land.â
âMother-in-law!â Now she totally woke up. Looking him straight in the eye, she couldât help but smile at
his handsome face.
âItâs great,â she said.
âWhatâs great?â asked Carlos.
Debbie locked her arms around his neck so that half of her body was on his.
âThis. Us. When I wake up and find you, my handsome, well-heeled husband by my side, itâs the best
feeling there could ever be. You complete my dreams.â
âYouâll get used to it, because youâll wake up in my arms every day.â
âI want to, but itâs impossible, since youâre so busy. You have business trips from time to time. How am I
going to wake up in your arms when youâre not even at my side?â Once again, she snuggled closer and
pressed her cheek against his chest.
The force of his heartbeatâs throbbing made her feel so close to him.
For the first time, since her fatherâs death, she felt safe around a man.
Caressing her gently, he kissed her eyebrows.
âIf you like, I can take you with me wherever I go. You can go with me on my next business trip.â
When his hand slid across her skin, she savored the slight ticklish feeling.
âIt would be quite an honor to go with you. Iâd gladly follow you around Like a shadow,â she giggled.
âIâd like it even better if you and I became a part of each other,â
Carlos said.
Huh? The expression on his face looked familiar.
âGet up. Time to pickupMom,â Debbiesaidabruptly, tryingtodivert hisattention
But her bait didnât work. Instead, he grabbed her.
âItâs ticklish,â she screamed between bouts of laughter.
Outside, the sun shone with an enchanting sparkle, especially after the previous dayâs dull, cloudy
weather. From the willows around the stream, birds chirped pleasantly, jumping here and there among
the boughs. It was a good day. Hypnotized by the beautiful music of nature all around him, Carlos
savored how Debbieâs mellow Laughter blended into the symphony.
At the entrance to the arrival terminal of the airport, two Bentleys came to a halt. In the driverâs seat of
the one in front was Emmett. He got out first, trotted to the left back door and opened it respectfully. A
pair of feet in brand-new black leather shoes stretched out and stepped on the ground. Then emerged
Carlos, in a long brown overcoat and sporting trendy flat top sunglasses.
