Sorry for late updates been sick on and off...

Harvey

The next day, I escorted Damien to a meeting and then did some work for my clients and went home to see this mysterious guest Antonio was talking about.
Damien had just called. He would be arriving in a few minutes.

I go inside and find Antonio seated in the couch, just a few minutes behind me, I hear Damien's car and rush out to greet him. I pull the front door and run out to jump on him...

"Damien!" I say excitedly as he holds me in his arms and carries me like a bride in his arms. He bends down and kisses me hard and lifts his handsome head.

"Like you haven't seen me at all today! What's killing you?" He asks striding with me in his arms as he kicks the car door closed.

"Nothing, can't I be happy to see you? Wait, are you carrying me in like a blushing bride?" I ask tightening my hold around his neck

"Absolutely" he says seriously.
I just laugh and enjoy the ride.
As soon as we enter the house, we hear voices and Damien puts me down and I immediately straighten my clothes. He takes my hand and pulls me to follow him as he puts the car keys in the bowl we keep at the entrance.

When we step in the living room, I can only see the back of Antonio's head as he shaking his head laughing at someone in front of him. He turns when he hears our footsteps.

"Oh goody! You're here" he says smirking maliciously to me.

"Who is this mysterious guest? " Damien asks him

"Yeah,tell us" I say going to sit on the couch next to Damien.

I hear clicking heels and look at the person in front of me. A stunningly gorgeous red head with a figure so striking. He eyes were green to match with plump lips and tall to boot. She is wearing a body hugging black dress and her breasts are on display. She throws her arms out to the side and twirls around.
This woman whoever she is knows she is gorgeous and isn't afraid to flaunt all her curves.

"Me! Am the guest!" She says laughingly

Damien hurries to her side and envelops her in a big hug. Clearly they are familiar with each other and he knows her.
Then he pulls back and turns to me,

"Harvey, this is my childhood best friend Andrea Garcia" he says introducing us

"Andrea, this is Harvey Andrate my husband" he says

She moves to my side to shake hands and looks me up and down before thrusting her hand out to greet me.

"Hello Harvey" she says. I shake her hand and greet her back. She goes back to Damien.

"So, you really got married huh?" She asks putting her arm around Damien.

"Yeah I did" He says winking at me. I smile back at him.

"Strange, you were always such a player, always the Casanova, never thought you would easily marry" she observes

"Yes, yes" Antonio agrees

"Well, there comes a time in every man's life that he has to man up. I maned up with this handsome guy" he says coming and hugging me around my waist. I hug him back and smile.
For a minute there, I was getting territorial. I didn't like her hands on my man!

"Lunch is ready" the chef announces and we go in to the dining room. As usual, Damien seats at the head, and I seat at his right or vice versa. So Damien seats at the head and I pull my chair to the right to seat in it but Andrea plops in the seat before me and immediately starts serving food. I stand awkwardly and move to go to the next seat. That is when she looks up and says,

"Oh, sorry, is this your seat? " she asks looking at me.

"Yes but its fine " I say pulling at the other seat.

"If you insist she says " going on to serve more food from the dishes.

"My sweetheart seats with me, come here baby" Damien's says and pushes back his chair. He puts me on his lap and serves one plate for us to share. I smile at him and eat my food while we make small talk at the table.

"Why were you keeping Andrea's visit a secret ?" Damien asks his brother Antonio. He looks up at us and shrugs

"Just wanted to surprise you, Andrea is a delight to have around" he says

"Yeah, we wanted to surprise you" she says

"I was surprised, I thought you were busy with your fashion show in Milan" Damien says his one hand on my waist,the other he was using to eat.

"I was, but I have a huge show coming up here, so am here to stay for a while" she says

"We'll be glad to have you" I say

"So Harvey, how is married life with this one?" She asks

"Great, Damien is an amazing husband" I say.
This was the fifth month of our trial marriage ordered by the judge and by next month, we would go for our hearing about Ashton's custody case. So far all the court officials they had sent only had good things to report about our cute little family. Damien is committed to it and loving the idea of being a dad to my little Ashton.
What can possibly go wrong!

"I heard Helena Andrate is around" she says

"Yeah, but she is visiting with my mother,though she was here" Damien's tells her

"I miss her and her amazing food since we were young, remember Damien?" She says

"Yeah, I remember the pies, potatoes and meat balls she used to pack for us" Damien says excitedly

"Don't forget the chicken dishes" Antonio says and they all laugh.

After lunch, I tell them I need to finish some work for a client and go upstairs to work.
I do most of it and complete it. As am adding finishing touches, I hear a knock on my door.

"Come in" I  say reaching up to take off my glasses.

"No! Dont! You look like a sexy little nerd in them" Damien says coming to sit on the  bed next to me. He reaches his hand and straightens them. Then he slowly trails his hand down my cheek.
Pulse rating at an abnormal rate, he traces my lips with his fingers. I breathe in deeply and let out and unsteady breath. Am shaking inside by such a small gesture. He affects me more than he knows. I look at him and his eyes are a molten fire of admiration with a mixture of desire.

"You're so damn hot" he whispers against my list his heart beating fast. I lean my forehead against his to slow my racing heart.

"You're hotter" I whisper back against his lips as he puts my laptop aside and pushes me back on the bed. I put my arms around his necks as his lips kiss me so sweetly. He pulls away and looks into my eyes, he smiles and starts unbuttoning my shirt slowly

"Hey, the others....." I try to say

"Are resting, now shut up and kiss me " he says

I smile and lean in to kiss him. Before we can even go any further, the door burst open and Andrea stands in the doorway

Wasn't she resting? I ask myself

"Am I interrupting?" She asks

Damien re-buttons my shirt and pulls me up

"Maybe " he says

"Am sorry, I wanted to ask if we could all go out to dinner later?" She asks

"Yeah, we'll go" Damien says asking with his eyes and I affirm.

"Perfect! I also invited Antonio and Helena" she says and closes the door and leaves.

I let out a loud groan and kick my pillow to the floor as Damien bursts out laughing.
Dinner with Helena and Sophia Andrate! It will be interesting!
