Healing hearts

Chapter twenty seven

Cassie's pov

I spent the rest of the evening waiting for Xander to come home. I played with my baby and fed him his dinner. He was growing fast, and I could already imagine him walking around the house. He had been crawling a lot over the past few days, and I couldn't be more proud.

Finally, he fell asleep, and I carried him to his crib. I went to the kitchen to make dinner, and when it was ready, I set it on the table. I grew more and more worried as the minutes passed, and then, finally, I heard the front door open and Xander came in.

"Hey," he said, and kissed my cheek. I made a humming sound. He looked at me a bit strangely, but he didn't say anything.

"Dinner's ready," I said. He nodded and told me he was going to take a shower. I wondered where he had been all day.

I ate my dinner, and by the time I was done, he was coming back down. He smiled at me and thanked me for the meal.

"How's Kelly?" he asked while eating his dinner.

"She's okay," I said. "It wasn't anything serious."

"I have to go upstairs," I said, and went to our bedroom. I took a shower and went to bed, and not long after, Xander joined me. He came close to me and kissed my neck.

"I missed you and Alex so much today," he said, kissing my neck. I was falling under his spell when I remembered I was angry with him.

I pushed him off and turned to face him. "Where were you today?" I asked him.

He sighed. "I had a feeling you were mad at me," he said. " I went to the beach with Mia."

"You went to the beach with Mia without telling me?" I said. He looked at me a bit weirdly.

"Yeah," he said. "Is something wrong?"

"Yeah," I said. "You didn't tell me, and I was worried."

He sighed again. "I'm sorry," he said. "I just wanted to go for a swim in the ocean and didn't want to stay home all day. I would have gotten bored."

I looked at him, thinking of all the ways I could tell him I was not a fan of the relationship he had with Mia, but I knew that would be selfish. I sighed. "Okay," I said. "Just please tell me next time, okay?"

"I promise to always let you know whenever I'm going somewhere from now on, okay?" he said, and I smiled.

"Okay," I said. He pecked me on the lips, and I sat on him to kiss him deeply. He kissed me back, holding me by the waist.

He took off my shirt, and since I wasn't wearing a bra, my breasts came in contact with his face. He looked at them and told me I was beautiful. Then he started kissing my neck. I moaned in pleasure.

He turned us over so he was on top of me, and took off his shirt in a sexy way. Then he returned to my neck and worked his way to my breasts. I was soon lost in the moment, and we made love over and over again that night.

It was another day at the office. I was working on some paperwork when my dad called me. He needed Xander's signature on some documents concerning the hotel we were working on together, and he needed me to call him. I decided to go to his office myself. I'd always wanted to see where and how my husband worked.

I got in my car and drove to the address I had. When I got there, I was shocked to see the beautiful glass building that housed my husband's office. It looked so grand. I couldn't believe I hadn't known how rich my husband was.
