Author's POV

Mikhail admired his happy wife as they walked on the streets of Ronda. She was curiously looking at everything around her like a bird who has been freed from the cage.

"See, Lovina will love that handbag!"
She pointed towards the shop excitedly.

Mikhail just chuckled and nodded. She purchased the handbag and he paid for it. The smile on her face was worth more than anything in his life.
Marona roamed around and purchased gifts for everyone.

"Aren't you going to buy anything for yourself?"
He asked as he handed bags to his bodyguard and held her hand.

"I don't like anything else when you are around me. You set the bar too high."
She teased and laughed when she noticed him blushing.
"You are blushing!"

"No, I am not!"
He cleared his throat and wore his glasses.

"You are!"
She giggled while kissing his cheeks and he couldn't stop smiling.

It was the best relaxing day of his life, away from the chaos and mysteries. They were just enjoying themselves.
They had a good lunch, romantic dinner and a warm night with each other.
Marona was glowing back in her feminine energy. This is what she wanted. Love and Peace!

"You are blushing, looks like you are thinking about me."
He embraced her from behind.

She groaned lazily while hiding herself in his arms.
"You are too overconfident... I am thinking about our life!"

"That means me! I am your life."
He shrugged and she laughed while turning around in his hold.

"And our kids!"
She reminded him.

He huffed.
"And our kids!"

"Time is flying... They are growing so fast, it feels like time is slipping from my hands... I won't feel surprised if tomorrow Andres comes home with his loaded gun like you and is scaring people around him... And Sabrina, her first prom with her boyfriend. I can't wait for them to become big humans."
She was in awe.

"Boyfriend?"
He scowled.
"What's that?"

Marona looked at him amused.
"Excuse me, girls get boyfriends when they are old enough."

He scoffed and grabbed the apple from the nearby basket.
"She is not allowed to have a boyfriend."

Marona was stunned.
"No! No, No... Wait, are you going to be a typical father?"
She mocked.

He shrugged while sitting on the couch.
"How is this typical? This is how father should be... No boys around my girl."
He was firm.

She laughed mockingly.
"Have you seen your history?"

"That's why I am saying this!"
He gave her a mocking smile.

She pouted.
"But Mikhail, she needs to explore her life."

"Under my protection..."
He stated.

She shook her head in disbelief.
"I know what your protection will look like... She won't even experience what a boyfriend is! She will hate you."

"That she will do anyway once she finds out that I have killed her biological father."
He replied as smile fell from his face.

Marona looked at him as he stood by the railing.
"Mikhail!"
She hugged him from behind.
"She loves you... Sabrina can never hate you. Have you seen how she gets excited when she looks at you?... You are her father."

He sighed.
"Anyways, we shouldn't think about it now... Let's enjoy the present, we will deal with the future later."

She smiled when he smiled.
"Okay!"
