We kissed until I was out of breath, I pulled away before he took it too far.
"You know me to well." He said as he nuzzled my neck.
"You think."
"You should wear my shirts often. I love it when you do. You look sexy." He said and I laughed. "We will see." I said and he stopped.
Just then my stomach let out a low grumble. "Well let's get some food in you." He chuckled. The food was gone cold so he heated it up and we sat at the table and ate.
After breakfast we settled in the living room. I was too tired to go change so I just stayed in his shirt. He put on a movie and we watched while I snuggled by him. "I want to ask you something..." He said after a while.
"Yes?" I said. It was peaceful with the only sound being the waves.
"What happened between you and Wright?" He asked. I pulled away to look at him. "William..." I didn't want to bring up things of the past.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to bring up anything, I just wanted to know your side of the story." He said with a blank expression. He was about to get up but I cleared my throat getting ready to speak. "William, I don't like talPotter about my past and all but you have to know eventually." I started. "Baby, you don't have to tell me if you are not ready." He said with a soft look.
"Thank you Will." I said hugging him.
He pulled me onto his lap so I was straddling him and wrapped his arms around me. "I love you Helen."
"I love you too William."
After that we sat in silence just enjoying each other's presence.
I just realised something. "William, you didn't tell me where we are."
"We in Greece, my love, well off the Greek coast." He said.
"Can we go to the mainland tomorrow?" I asked.
"Of course, that's if you can survive tonight." He said with a mischievious glint in his blue eyes. "No William, I would like to actually sleep tonight and not be involved in your activities." I said sternly. "We could start now and then you will the whole night to sleep." He bargained.
"No William, there is more to the married life than just sex, scrath that "maPotter love"." I said putting air quotes over the maPotter love part. "Ha ha very funny, but we'll see..." He said with a smug look.
"What's that supposed to mean?" I asked with a frown.
"Exactly what it means." He said with a smirk and I felt like punching him.
"Fuck you." I said irritated and went upstairs.
"Helen! Where you going!" He yelled after me.
"As far away from you as possible." I yelled back.
"You know you don't want that babe! You love me!!" He said catching up to me.
"I don't love you." I said.
"Oh really now, well I just have to make you love me and I know how." He said stalPotter to me. My back hit the wall and he put his hands up, trapping me.
"Now you said you didn't love me? We'll see after I'm done with you." He said darkly and crashed his lips onto mine in a dominating kiss. He was alot rougher this time but soon went easy on me.
"I'm sorry baby, if I hurt you." He said breathlessly after the round that we just had.
My body was exhausted and I felt like I will be gone if I don't get sleep.
"Its okay William but I need sleep." I said and he chuckled before nodding. I took the shirt I was wearing and put it on while he put on his boxers. "Good." Was all I said. I turned and tried to sleep.
Just when I was drifting off to sleep, William pulled me onto his lap, maPotter me straddle him. "William!" I whined, getting irritated from the lack of sleep.
"Sorry baby, I can't sleep when I'm not holding you." He said shyly and I just chuckled and placed a kiss on his lips before resting my head on his chest.
He pulled the covers over us and wrapped his arms around me. I let out a content sigh, loving the feeling of being in his arms. I drifted of into sleep by William's level breathing and calm heartbeat.
"Baby." I heard William's voice but it sounded distant.
"Babe." He said again lightly shaPotter me. I yawned and opened my eyes.
"Are you awake?"
"I am now." I said lifting myself up. I realised that I was on top of William and when I tried to get up, he held me down.
"Let me go William." I said still recovering from the sleep.
"No, I just wanted to ask if you still want to go to the mainland or you want to stay here and rest." He said with a soft tone. "The mainland." I answered.
"Okay." He said before getting up, taPotter me with him and carried me to the bathroom. "What are you doing?" I frowned at him.
"Going to take a shower." He answered walPotter into the bathroom.
"Well then can you put me down."
"No, we are going to shower together."
"You know what that led to the last time." I said and he chuckled.
"This time we are actually going to shower." He said and helped me out of the shirt, he then took off his boxers and turned the shower on.
After our shower, we got dressed and went down for breakfast.
"Mr Alexander, your breakfast in ready on the balcony." A middle aged woman said when we got to the bottom of the stairs. "Thank you Metilda." He said and dismissed her.
"You had people here?" I asked. I started to freak incase they heard us when we were... "They only arrived today so no they didn't hear us." He said with a smirk.
"Did I say that out loud?"
"No but the look you have says it all." He chuckled and I hit his arm.
We walked to the balcony and a table with two place settings with a breakfast table was set. "After you my love." He said guiding me to the table and pulling out my chair.
"Oh my, who knew that
"Ha ha very funny." He said sarcastically, after that we ate in a comfortable silence.
After breakfast we left for the mainland. We visited a small town nearby and spent the rest of the day there.
"So what do you think we should have for dinner?" William asked as he looked around. "I think-" I started but someone caught my eye. There was a little boy and girl sitting at a street corner looPotter lost and defenceless. I was angry that someone would let children suffer like that. "Helen! Are you even listening?!" William asked. "Wait William, I am busy." I said and left him standing there in the street as I walked to the children. I felt William following me. I walked up to children and they looked so afraid. "Don't worry sweetie, I won't hurt you." I said softly and they looked doubtful.
"I am Helen and the big scary man there is my husband William, but don't worry he can't even harm a fly." I said and the little boy stepped up hiding his sister behind him. It was so cute, he was protecting her. "Nikos." He said in an accent. "Don't tell her your name!" The little girl shouted. "Nikalia, its okay." He reassured her. "You have such a pretty name Nikalia." I smiled at her and she smiled back. "You too miss." She said shyly. "Are your'll lost?" William asked crouching down beside me. They nodded their head. "Oh how old are your'll?" I asked concerned.
"I am 9 and she is 7." Nikos answered. I was impressed that they could speak English so well, this was a small town and most of the people didn't speak English. "When did your'll lose your parents?" William asked.
"2 weeks ago."
My eyes widened in shock, these kids were lost for 2 weeks!
"Do your'll know your parents' contact number?"
"I only know that it ends in 398." Nikos answered.
"Come we are going to find your parents but first your'll need to eat something." I said and nodded to William.
I felt a connection with these kids, like I needed to protect them.
We took them to restaurant and got them something filling. They were so hungry,and I wondered about their health.
We then went shopping for clothes for them and then to a hotel, where we called a doctor to check them. Luckily it was nothing serious but Nikalia had a mild concoction, which the doctor treated her for. We let them rest while William and I got to work on finding the children's parents.
/> It was not long before we got a call from our team saying that they found their parents and are bringing them over. It was about 7 in the afternoon when there was a knock on the door.
William and I walked to the door and opened it.
We already told the Nikos and Nikalia that we found their parents and they are coming for them.
"Hello, I am Rinaldi and this is my wife Athena, I believe your'll found our children?" The man was around his late to early thirties and had a worried yet hopeful look as for his wife she looked like she had been crying.
"Mama!! Papa!!" The kids came running and hugged their parents.
"Oh my babies! Don't ever do that again!" Their mother Athena said with tears of joy. "We could never repay your kindness and what you have done for our family." The father said. "It is no problem, but you should thank my wife she found Nikos and Nikalia." William said.
"Thank you so much! My wife and I have been looPotter for them from the day they got lost." Rinaldi said with a relieved expression. We said our goodbyes to the couple and the children and went back to the island.
"I am missing them already." I said.
"Me too." Willian said holding me closer.
"I felt like I needed to protect them and make sure that they were safe." I said.
"Don't worry baby, just now we will have babies of our own and you will make a great mother." He said kissing my temple. "Seeing you today with the kids, had me wanting to start a family with you." My hands unintentionally went to my stomach. I smiled at the thought of having William's babies. The rest of our 3 week honeymoon was spent like that we would wake up, get ready and explore the island or simply just spend the day at the beach or inside the house, watching movies, cuddling, kissing and maPotter love. Each of those always leading to maPotter love.
We took 1 week of our 3 week honeymoon and just did work maPotter sure everthying was runnig smoothly with our businesses. By the third week I didn't want to leave and just wanted to spend my days here with William but it had to end eventually and I was mssing home...
Chapter 53: House Hunting...
"HELEN!! WILLIAM!!" Was what greeted us as soon as we got of the plane. The bright flashes of cameras and reporters screaming out our names. "How was your honeymoon!!" "Are your businesses going to merge!!" "Helen are you pregnant!!" Questions after questions but we couldn't answer them and just kept walPotter towards the black SUV. "That was crazy!" William said frustratedly as soon as we got in the SUV. "It was beyond crazy! I didn't know we would draw this much attention?!"
William shrugged. "Well what do you expect from being listed as not likely to get married and the people ranked no.1 of that list got married and to each other." I grinned. "You know we really do make a good power couple."
He smirked arching an eyebrow. "Really now?" He pulled me onto his lap, so I was straddling him. My arms instinctively went around his neck, playing with his hair.
"Yes really." I said with a smirk. I didn't realise that he pressed the button that shielded us from the front's view. His hands caressed my back and if I wasn't in a trance from his touch, I would have stopped him. From my back, his hands slid down to my thighs and then up to my waist.
He cupped my face, bringing me down for a feverish kiss. Our lips moved in perfect sync. If it wasn't for the car coming to a hault, I was 100% sure that we would have done the deal in the back seat. "Mr and Mrs Alexander we are here." The driver announced. It was a different driver, one I have never met before, and I have met William's whole security team, including his drivers.
When I questioned him, he just shrugged saying that Marco was on vacation and would be back tomorrow. We walked up the stairs and rang the doorbell.
"Everybody!! Helen and William are here!!" We heard someone yell from the otherside. When the door opened it was William's mother, Aunt Lucinda with a huge grin plastered on her face. "Your'll are finally back!!" She squealed trapping us in a bear hug. For a small woman she sure is strong. "Helen!! William!!" My mother approached us with a grin. She repeated what Aunt Lucinda did. They showed us in and just as we entered, my sisters came running."Chrissy!!!"
They squealed and hugged me.
"We missed you sooo much!!" They said.
"Its only been 3 weeks, your'll haven't seen me for a longer time period than that." I said and they just scrunched up their noses.
"Yeah but this is different! You were on your honeymoon!! Married!! We didn't think you would get married and especially not to an Alexander!!" They said and I shook my head at them. "Forgetting someone? Oh, I don't know...your brother-in-law?" William arched an eyebrow at them and they giggled before hugging him. "But you more of a brother-bestfriend than a brother-in-law." They said and William looked confused. "You girls and your weird explainations." He shook his head. "Come on now, we are waiting to eat." My father and Uncle Franklin joined us. "I am surprised that your'll didn't already start eating." Aunt Lucinda snickered. "Helen." My father said walPotter up to me and hugging me.
"Its so hard to believe how my little scamp grew so much and now she is married." He said with a shaky laugh. "I thought I told you to stop calling me that." I said pulling away
"You can't get rid of a habit, scamp." He smirked and I shook my head.
After that we settled down for lunch...
"So..."
"What?" I turned to face him.
"Where are we staying tonight?" He asked leaning against the doorframe.
"Are you really asPotter me that question?" I raised an eyebrow.
"It makes us sound that we have no place to stay. You do know our properties combined would be like 40 or something." I said and he laughed. "Not like that, I mean whose house, mine or yours?" He said walPotter closer to me. I was in the bathroom freshening up when he walked in.
"I don't know." I said going back to what I was doing.
He walked up behind me and wrapped his arms around me.
"We going to need to buy a new house." He whispered in my ear, sending shivers down my spine.
He hands rested on my stomach. "You know, if we want to start a family and all. We going to need a nice big house with a big yard for our babies to play." He said looPotter at me in the mirror. I sighed at thought, little Helens and Williams running around the house with a golden retriver pup following them. Me in the kitchen and William coming home from work, yelling 'Honey, I'm home!'
"What are you thinPotter about?" He asked, his hands rubbing circles on my stomach. "Our future..." I trailed off, catching his hands and stopping them.
"You do know there is no baby in there, right?" I said and he chuckled.
"Who knows...there might be one forming in there right now." He smiled.
I felt depressed all of a sudden, as much as I want to have his babies, it is too soon and I still have my business and so does he. We will be too busy to raise a baby. Not right now that is.
"Baby what's wrong?" He asked worriedly.
"William, we can't have a baby at least not right now, we just got married and we still have our businesses to run. With our busy schedules, it will be hard to raise baby." I voiced out my opinion. His hold around me tightened.
"Love, I don't care if we having baby now or later, as long it is you who is carrying my baby." He said softly burying his face in the crook of my neck. "I love you, William." I said turning around so I was facing him.
"I love you too,
We pulled away breathless and I chuckled.
"Why are you laughing?" He asked, amusement clear in his capitvating blue eyes.
"I was just thinPotter...In the beginning of the year, if anyone told me I would get married by the end of the year and to you, I would hanve laughed in their face." I said and he chuckled.
"William, your mother and Mrs Potter are calling for your'll downstairs." A woman probably in her late forties announced.
"Thanks Marianne." He dismissed her. Shortly after we went downstairs, to find our mothers in the kitchen discussing when they are
going to get grandbabies. Before the conversation got too far, William announced that we had to leave for a meeting. They didn't believe him but William is very persuasive, they let us go and we said our goodbyes, before getting into the car and driving away.
"How ironic? We were just talPotter about not having a baby now and then our mothers want us to have a baby now." He chuckled shaPotter his head.
"I know right." I said smiling.
"William...Where are we going?" I realised that road we were on led to neither one of our houses. "We are going to check some houses. I already called and they set up a list of houses to our liPotter." He informed me and I giggled. He reminded me so much of Minnie, she always tells me what plans I have for the day.
"Why are you giggling?" He raised an eyebrow.
"You remind me of Minnie. She always tells me what is planned for the day." I laughed at his expression. Before he could say anything, the car stopped and I got out of the car.
"That's not fair, you know." He grumbled as he got out.
"Aww, is the baby upset?" I teased and he glared at me although there was amusement swirling in his eyes.
"I will show you I am not a baby." He said determined. He started unbuckling his belt and before he could go too far, I stopped him. "What are you doing?!"
"Showing you, I am not a baby." He said in 'duh' tone.
"By showing your junk?" I arched an eyebrow.
"Duh."
"No William, not here! I was just teasing!" I said my eyes widening, he had a satisfied smirk on and buckled his belt. "You are crazy Mr Alexander." I mumbled.
"Crazy about you
"Don't be so upset
I was stuck for words and I didn't know why, but William sure enjoyed seeing me speechless, by the smug look on his face.
"Glad I have that effect on you." He smirked and before I could say anything the realtor walked up to us with a smile on his face. "Mr Alexander, Miss Potter." He greeted. William tensed and his arm around my waist tightened. "Its
"My apologies, Mr Alexander and Mrs Alexander. I have a real wonderful house for your'll. It meets all the specifications that you requested Mr Alexander." The man was probably in his late twenties, around the same age as William. He was an okay built and a little shorter than William and he wore glasses. But if he took them off, I was sure he would be a ladies man.
