December 16th - Maldives
A week after their fairytale wedding, the morning sun filtered through the floor-to-ceiling windows of their penthouse, casting a warm glow across the elegant décor. Frey and Selena were buzzing with excitement, the reality of their honeymoon adventure finally sinking in. As they prepared to leave, Frey dressed in a tailored navy suit that perfectly complemented Selena's chic travel outfit—a white cashmere sweater paired with tailored black trousers and a stylish trench coat.
After a quick breakfast, they gathered their things and made their way to the door, hand in hand. Stepping out into the crisp winter air, they were greeted by a sleek black car waiting at the curb, its polished exterior reflecting the iconic London skyline. As they settled into the plush leather seats, the driver navigated through the bustling streets, past historic landmarks and luxurious shops, the energy of the city vibrant all around them.
Arriving at Heathrow Airport, they made their way to the exclusive executive lounge, bypassing the bustling crowds. The lounge was an oasis of sophistication, with plush seating, elegant decor, and a panoramic view of the runway. Frey and Selena settled into a cozy corner, where they were served complimentary champagne, the bubbly a perfect prelude to their escape to the Maldives.
"Cheers to us," Frey said, raising his glass with a beaming smile.
"Cheers," Selena replied, clinking her glass against his, her heart fluttering with excitement.
As they sipped their drinks, they shared stories about their wedding day, the joyous moments, and the love that surrounded them. Time seemed to slip away in the luxurious ambiance of the lounge, but soon it was time to board their flight.
They made their way to the business class cabin, where they were greeted by attentive staff and settled into their spacious, plush seats. The atmosphere was serene, with soft lighting and an air of exclusivity. As the plane taxied down the runway, Frey took Selena's hand, intertwining their fingers as they prepared for takeoff.
With the ascent, the city of London shrank beneath them, the sprawling landscape disappearing into the clouds. Selena gazed out the window, marveling at the view, and then turned to Frey, who was already watching her with admiration.
"Can you believe this is our life now?" he asked, his voice laced with awe.
"It feels surreal," she replied, a dreamy smile gracing her lips.
The cabin crew served a gourmet meal that evening, featuring an exquisite selection of dishes paired with fine wines. They shared bites of each other's meals, laughing and enjoying the intimate experience as the sun dipped below the horizon, painting the sky with hues of orange and pink.
After dinner, they reclined their seats, and Frey wrapped an arm around Selena, pulling her close. They watched movies together, sharing popcorn and playful banter, the hours flying by in blissful companionship.
As they descended toward the Maldives, Selena felt a wave of excitement wash over her. The pilot announced their approach, and she peered out the window to see the stunning atolls and turquoise waters that surrounded them.
Upon landing, they were greeted with warm tropical breezes and the welcoming smiles of Soneva Jani's staff. A representative from the resort met them at the airport, providing them with cool towels and fresh coconut water as they transitioned to a luxurious speedboat that whisked them away across the shimmering lagoon.
The boat ride was exhilarating, the wind in their hair as they navigated the crystal-clear waters. The vibrant hues of the ocean and the picturesque islands made Selena feel as if they had entered a postcard. Frey sat beside her, grinning from ear to ear, clearly sharing in her joy.
