Shayenne watched her three kids asleep in their bedroom. She smiled to herself. It had been five years after her marriage to Shane and so far, not once has she regretted had decision.

She was a happy woman now. Her life was better. She had a loving husband that cared for her and three children that adored her. Her hurtful past was behind her. Josh was away in jail, paying for his offenses while her parents were endlessly trying to regain her trust and love. She thought of how miserable her life would've have been if Shane had not come to her.

"Honey??"

She snapped out of her thoughts when she heard Shane call her from downstairs. He was waiting for her. It was their date night. Ever since they'd gotten married, whenever he had the chance, Shane would take his wife out on Saturday nights.

Shayenne left her children's room and rushed down the stairs to join her waiting husband. When he saw her, his breath hitched at how beautiful she was in her gown. He was proud of his wife and always showed her off as his most priceless possession. Shane fell harder for her as the years passed and that flame she'd lit up in him had never died down and only continued to burn.

"You look beautiful, sweetheart," he said as he took her hand and helped her off the last step.

"Thank you," she replied with a shy smile.

He pulled her to him and wrapped his arms around her tiny waist. He held her tight against his body and brought his lips down on her plump ones. He kissed slow, deep and passionately, taking in her scent and taste. She drove him crazy and made his heart palpitate.

"With you looking like this, I might change my mind about going out tonight," he confessed and she laughed a little.

"Don't start, Mr. I took hours to look like this. Don't change our plans just cuz you're horny," she teased him and he smiled.

He was so handsome. A gorgeous man. He gave her butterflies whenever he smiled.

"Alright, baby. Anything for my Queen," he pecked her lips softly and now Shayenne was the one tempted to stay back.

"Where are you taking me tonight?"

"Somewhere beautiful and private."

"Oou~ sounds nice."

He grabbed her hand and they made their way for the door. The house was full of maids and there was a trustworthy nanny. So the children were in safe hands.

The door was opened for them and outside was a limo, waiting to escort them to their destination.

Shane took her to this beautiful rooftop restaurant at the very top of a five star hotel. He spoiled her endlessly, even when she didn't want him to. They were given a good table with a magnificent view on the busy and beautifully lighted city.

He pulled her chair and made sure she was comfortably seated. All this, she still felt like she didn't deserve but Shane did everything to prove her wrong.

"This is so beautiful, Shane~" she cooed admiring the view. "How do you even find these places?"

"It's a secret," he smiled and she smiled back.
