A few days pass and it is now Friday. I needed to stop moping around. He is back in two days. The thought of him coming back made my heart warm. Warmer than what it had been feeling. I've been experiencing gruesome nightmares since he had been gone. Nightmares of the day I was punched in the stomach relentlessly.

I shower and get dressed. The big bruise on my belly was still there but didn't hurt anymore. I walked out of our room and the house has bodyguards everywhere. I guess Ezra wanted me to feel safe without his presence. I go up to one of the bodyguards. "I'm going to the mall today." He looks at me and nods before signalling three others to come with him.

I get into the car that Ezra had left me with and boy was it beautiful. The inside of the car eased me, it smelt like him. I set off driving to the mall and a car followed me all the way, sure they kept their distance like they were ordered but it was still unusual.

I entered many shops picking out outfits and swim suits for the honeymoon. Sandals and hats. I even picked up some black Prada swim shorts for my husband. I got us some matching ray ban sunglasses. I knew he was going to love them.

I head home and go to unpack all of the things into the closet. As I step into the room I hear the shower running in the bathroom. I quickly leave the room and signal one of the bodyguards. "Someone is in the bathroom." I whisper. All I see is a smirk form on his face. Was he insane? Someone was in the shower?! I snatch his gun out of his hand and walk into the bathroom. The gun in front of me, I lower it as I see my husband's back.

It looked incredible. The tattoos. The muscles. Everything.

"What are you doing with a gun?" He questions me, with a little giggle. "I told one of your men, someone was in the shower and he just stood there with a smug smile on his face so I took his gun." I say short on breath. He laughs and gets out of the shower. My breath heightens. "I thought I was gonna be taken again." You cry. "Never tesoro, my men knew you weren't in any danger." He says quickly grabbing a towel. Once the towel is wrapped around his body I hug him. "I've missed you." I breathe out in relief. "I've missed you more." He whispers.

The hug lasts a couple of minutes and I gesture him into the room. He sits down on the bed and I show him everything I bought. "I love you." He smiles. "And I love you." Kissing his lips.

"I got home early from my trip so I moved the flight for the honeymoon to tomorrow morning." He says. I smile before dragging the suitcases out of the closet. "Best get packing then, hadn't we?" A smile spreads across my face, pure joy fills my heart knowing he is back.

The suitcases are packed and we are cuddling in bed. I instantly fall asleep in his arms. His scent makes me happy.
