Part 75
Upon seeing Adaline, the man spread his arms wide, inviting his wife to come closer and into his embrace. Adaline complied. She walked over and nestled into her husband’s embrace. His warm body enveloped hers, providing comfort. Adaline rested her head on her husband’s chest, while Altezza gently rubbed her back.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
“Are you tired? Have you had dinner?” Adaline looked up. Altezza nodded in response to both of his wife’s questions.
“I’m sorry, I haven’t had much time with you. Just hold on a little longer, my dear. My wife, my children,” he said in a deliberately affectionate tone, while caressing Adaline’s stomach. “If Antony feels that Gian is ready to be released, I’ll bring Duncan with me. Working with Duncan feels easier.”
“Maybe because Duncan is already accustomed to your way of working. And perhaps the chemistry between you two is strong because you’ve been working together,” Adaline commented, which was met with a nod from her husband.
Adaline remembered her encounter with Jovanka earlier that evening and the photos she had received some time before. She raised her head again and looked at her husband’s face.
Altezza appeared tired. His forehead seemed more wrinkled than before. The bags under his eyes also appeared darker. Adaline, who had intended to discuss Jovanka, changed her mind.
“What’s wrong?” Altezza asked because Adaline suddenly sat up straight and looked at him with a gaze that Altezza couldn’t interpret. But moments later, Adaline smiled.
“You’re getting old, aren’t you?” She said still smiling.
“Wow, darling. Why are you suddenly talking about age?” Altezza sat up straight too, looking at his wife with narrowed eyes. His facial expression seemed offended. Adaline burst into laughter.
“But that’s the truth. You’re getting old. We have a ten-year age difference.”
“Now now now… are you trying to provoke my emotions?” Altezza asked, looking displeased.
“Just look at the wrinkles on your forehead and around your eyes. It’s quite obvious,” Adaline teased again.
Altezza frowned in annoyance. But then, suddenly, Adaline straddled his lap. Her body rested on her knees. Altezza held onto his wife’s waist, still confused by her actions.
“These wrinkles are because Daddy of the kids thinks too much,” Adaline traced her finger along Altezza’s forehead. Then, she replaced the touch of her finger with a kiss. “Don’t think too much. Don’t get too tired,” she said after the first kiss.
She then kissed the corners of Altezza’s eyes alternately. “Don’t work too hard. And don’t even think about looking at other beautiful women out there.” Altezza closed his eyes, trying to absorb and enjoy his wife’s touch.
Adaline continued by kissing the tip of Altezza’s nose, and she said again, “Don’t catch the scent of other women’s perfume.” Then, Adaline kissed both of Altezza’s cheeks. “Never want to kiss another woman’s cheek.” And finally, Adaline kissed her husband’s lips. “Never kiss another woman’s lips.” Her command was firmer than before.
Adaline withdrew her face. She was back sitting on her husband’s thigh. Her head tilted up, while Altezza leaned down. Their eyes met. Slowly, Altezza cupped his wife’s face. He kissed her forehead, the corners of her eyes, nose, and cheeks, just as his wife had done before. But without words like Adaline had spoken.
Altezza kissed the corners of Adaline’s lips. “Never smile for another man. This smile is only for me, the father of your children,” he said, then he kissed Adaline’s lips. “And these lips belong to me too.” Altezza pulled Adaline’s waist closer, indicating that his passion had ignited.
Feeling something stir beneath her, Adaline let out a soft sigh. Slowly, Altezza removed Adaline’s clothing over her head. His wife was only wearing thin black underwear without a bra.
Altezza gazed at his wife’s body with passion. Her breasts were fuller than before. Altezza touched them with both hands, caressing her sensitive nipples with his thumbs.
Adaline sighed, choosing to close her eyes and feel her husband’s touch. And the lower part of Altezza pulsed again.
Altezza lowered his hands to his wife’s slightly bulging belly. “Hello, Papa’s little ones,” he greeted, rubbing Adaline’s belly in circular motions. “Daddy will come to visit you soon.” He murmured, then gently laid Adaline’s body down in one smooth motion.
Adaline watched as Altezza removed his short-sleeved shirt. Her hand reached out, reaching for her husband’s broad chest. Her touch continued down to her husband’s muscular abdomen, and then her fingers slipped into his boxer shorts. She fondled the firm flesh inside, causing Altezza to groan.
“Learning to be naughty, darling?” her husband asked, his gaze full of desire.
Adaline didn’t answer. Instead, her hands continued to caress and massage her husband’s body, eliciting more groans from him.
Altezza lowered his body, cupping his wife’s lips. He kissed her passionately, his hands exploring and touching her body. Both of them moaned and groaned together.
Altezza kissed Adaline’s neck, occasionally licking and sucking. His hands squeezed Adaline’s breasts firmly, making her moan in pleasure. His kisses trailed down to Adaline’s pelvic bone, then moved up to her breasts.
Altezza knew that his wife’s breasts were now more sensitive than before, so he deliberately played with them, teasing her until she writhed.
Adaline tried to touch him again, but Altezza stopped her. He raised both of his wife’s hands above her head. With one arm, he held them down while his other hand continued to explore her body.
Altezza pressed his manhood against the outside of Adaline’s underwear, causing her to stifle her cries. “Altezza, please…” This was the first time Adaline had mentioned his name during their marriage.
Altezza was momentarily taken aback, but then he smiled. He wanted his wife to call his name again. To moan it and even scream it when she found release.
Altezza continued to kiss Adaline, allowing his fingers to tease her body. His left hand twisted her breast while his right hand continued to stroke her intimately outside her underwear.
“Altezza…” She pleaded again.
“Yes, darling?”
“Please…” Adaline writhed again, unconsciously spreading her legs wide open.
“What do you need, darling…?” Altezza teased her again, sucking on her breasts.
Adaline’s back arched. Her hands, now free, tangled in Altezza’s hair, trying to lift his head from her chest.
“What do you need, darling?” he asked again, his gaze teasing.
“Please enter me…” She pleaded. And gladly, Altezza obliged. They wrestled in the pleasure you know about. Ending with exhausted bodies and sweat covering them, their breaths still heavy.
“Altezza…” she sighed in his ear. Altezza collapsed onto Adaline’s body, burying his head in the curve of her neck and inhaling the scent of her body, mixed with their sweat.
“Mmm…” Altezza whispered behind her ear.
“Thank you.” Adaline said with a happy smile on her face.
Altezza lifted his body, propping himself up with his elbows. His right hand caressed Adaline’s face, her forehead, her cheeks, her jaw, her lips. Altezza gently kissed her lips.
“I should be the one thanking you,” he replied sincerely. He kissed her forehead, her cheeks, and returned to her lips, which were starting to swell. “Thank you for everything. For being a wife and mother to our children.” Again, Altezza kissed her lips.
Adaline gazed at her husband’s face. Her hand reached out and touched his jaw. Without many words, she kissed his lips. In her heart, she felt so grateful for the love she had. The care and affection given by her husband. Whatever happens in the future, Adaline feels ready. Whether it’s good or bad, she believes she will be strong enough to face it.
“I’m tired,” she said, closing her eyes.
Adaline’s tiredness wasn’t physical, but rather a weariness of the heart. She wanted to hide her tears. She didn’t want to spoil this beautiful moment by showing her sadness. She would bear it all herself. Her husband had already given her the best of everything.
“Sleep now,” Altezza said. He laid his body down and reached for Adaline, pulling her into his embrace. “Have a peaceful sleep, my dear,” he said, stroking Adaline’s back gently and kissing the top of her head. They both drifted off into the realm of dreams, hoping that happiness would greet them afterward.
