It's the fourth day of our honeymoon when I receive an unexpected call from Atty. Mortem, "Hello, Ms. Myers?" I step away from Tony who's currently sunbathing on the lustrous white sand beach. The clear aquamarine water glistens like the morning sunbeams brightly. I position myself behind the tall coconut trees that line the shore.

Mrs. Green. I want to correct him yet I refrain myself from doing so, "Yes, it's me."

"We'll file the case tomorrow afternoon. If you wish to continue negotiating with us, kindly come to the same law office tomorrow morning. Bye." Atty. Mortem is the same cold-blooded lawyer. He didn't wait for me to respond and ended the call straight away. 

"Who called?"

I turn around to see Tony's arms folded over his chest, I respond, "Ah. W-wrong n-number."

"Don't lie to me. You're so obvious, why are you stuttering and.. fidgeting?" He smirks as his blue stare shifts to my fingers that are now restless and making small movements.

I sigh in defeat and lower my gaze before I answer, "Fine. I'm sorry for lying. It's President Rogers and Manager Kim's lawyer. They'll be filing a case against me tomorrow afternoon and he said that if I want a settlement, I'll need to come by tomorrow morning."

"Let's pack our things. We'll be back in California around past midnight."

"I apologize for having to cut off our honeymoon."

"Don't worry about it, love. I've already enjoyed my expectations." He winks at me. Reminiscing our countless lovemaking for the past days makes me blush.

"Naughty." I roll my eyes as we walk on our way to our room. I tilt my head to take a last glimpse on the beach filled with colorful fishes and reefs. This is where we enjoyed swimming, diving, and snorkeling for the past days. Tropical Paradise has given us a mind-blowing honeymoon experience beyond our imagination. I pout my lips, feeling regret for having to leave this place earlier than planned.

"Sexy. Lovely." He gives me a flirtatious smile and brushes his arm on mine.

"Desirable. Gorgeous. Powerful." His gesture sends an electric current on my skin, making me feel hot.

"Drop-dead. Stubborn. Ravishing. Badass." He licks his upper lips then bites his lower lips, making it bright red.

Now I'm turned on, "Alpha. Hot-"

He cuts me off by grabbing my hips, swinging me towards him, penetrating my mouth with a profound, craving kiss. Damn, this man is an absolute amazing kisser.

He releases me after a long kiss that took my breath away, "Don't pout your lips sexily like that again. It's difficult for me to fight the urge to kiss you hard."

"Why fight it then? You can kiss me anytime you wa-"

He leans over to capture my lips again, hungrier than ever. We pant, breathing hard and deeply after the kiss, "We got to make love before we fly back to California." He declares, leaning over to make me feel his solid arousal against me.

We reach our room and made love over and over again until I became achingly sore.

*****

We fly back to home with Tim, Kelly, and Greg. Kelly followed a day after we arrived in the Maldives. We sense that there's something going on with Greg and her but we didn't dare ask. It's fun to see them flirting then fighting and back to flirting again for the past few days.

Tony and I enter the private room inside his plane. As per Tim, the flight is at least 16 hours and we need some sleep after all that mating.

"Love, is this the money problem you've mentioned that night at the veranda?" He asks the moment we lie on our bed. He turns to his side to look at my face.
