Chapter 54. Kissing Under the Moonlight (+18)
On the second day in the Wilson Paradise Island, Sienna asked Ms. Minko to make the breakfast. That old lady greeted her after Daniel’s bodyguard had delivered the suitcases to the resort. She came along early in the morning with her husband, Mister Minko.
The menu for breakfast was a smoked beef omelet. Sienna immediately thanked her after she delivered two breakfast plates and two hot cups of coffee latte.
Daniel had just done taking a shower when Sienna served the food and the coffees on the dining table. She invited him to join her for breakfast.
After Daniel changed into a casual shirt and short pants, he joined her at the dining table.
Before he sat down with her, he stole a kiss on her cheek and said, “Good morning, Baby.”
“Morning, Daniel,” she greeted him nicely in return.
During the breakfast, Daniel asked her, “What about you move into my mansion once we return to Vancouver? What do you say?”
Sienna glanced at him nervously for a second. Her heart was beating faster when he asked her that question.
“Ugh, so, you’re asking me to move in with you?” She murmured. “Yeah, I understand. We’re married now, but my family…”
The moment she mentioned her family, Daniel gave her a bewildered stare.
She shook her head and said, “They will question my absence. We both have agreed that my family cannot know about us.”
Daniel immediately put down his forks and knife on his plate. He kept staring wonderingly at her. She was nervous every time he stared keenly at her.
“And anyway, I’m planning to finish my college before we can officially stay together,” Sienna reminded him about what she wanted to do after the summer holiday.
He sighed heavily. He seemed to disapprove of her plan at the time. The atmosphere felt a little bit tensed once he clenched his jaw.
But Daniel didn’t want to say no. He tried to persuade her once again as he said, “Come on, Baby… cannot you stay with me while you will finish your college?”
Sienna sighed and muttered, “Daniel, please.”
He wanted to persuade her to stay a little longer with him. And then he suggested the idea to her, “Maybe we can sneak out to see each other when you’re living your college life, and I’m living my entrepreneur life.”
Sienna pursed her lips for a second while her eyes stared down at her white plate. Then she said, “Well, I will think about it.”
“So, is that a yes?” Daniel pushed her to give a solid answer.
Sienna took a deep breath. And then she muttered, “Like I said, I will think about it first.”
Daniel pinched his eyes at her, feeling a little bit annoyed about her indecisiveness.
“So, what about your dream job after you graduate later?” Daniel wondered. “Do you have a plan about it?”
Sienna finally put down her forks and knives on her plate too. She needed time to think about the right answer for that simple question. But truthfully, she had not given a thought about her upcoming future. She didn’t even plan this secret marriage with Daniel. Everything happened so fast in a blink of an eye. She felt surprised with everything that was going on with her life at the time.
“You have told me about what you want. Did you remember?” Daniel wondered while staring at her pretty face. “You want to have your own boutique because you love designing pretty gowns. And you also want to open a flower shop, because you fond of pretty flowers.”
Sienna looked at his eyes deeply. Soon, the corner of her lips turned upward. She felt happy that Daniel remembered every little thing that she said to him.
People said; *if a man really loves his woman, he will remember everything that she says.*
And the love quote she read somewhere on the internet turned out to be pretty accurate. Daniel was doing it to her at the time. He remembered what she loved in life.
“Well, I do want to have the best of both worlds,” Sienna muttered, but then she shrugged her shoulders. “But I want to be realistic now. I don’t know if I can make it to open my own fashion boutique. But maybe I can still survive with opening a simple flower shop in the city.”
“Baby…” he stared numbly at her. “Don’t you forget that you’re marrying a rich husband?”
She instantly narrowed her eyebrows and grinned at him. “What did you say?”
“You heard me,” Daniel spoke seriously. “I can make your dream come true. All you need is just a little investment from me.”
She sighed when he started to talk like a business partner rather than a husband.
“Let’s say, I am your investor,” Daniel said. “This is my kind offering to you.”
“So, what? Are you willing to give up your source to help me achieve my dream job?” Sienna confronted him.
He chuckled and nodded at her. “Sure, I consider you as an interesting investment.”
She smiled widely at him. And then she finally said, “Thank you, Daniel. I am so happy that you’re interested to support me.”
“So? What do you say? Do you agree with me?” He literally needed to hear her to accept his offer like doing a real business.
She nodded happily and said, “Okay, I accept your kind and loving offer to help me.”
Thereafter, Daniel smiled in a victory when she finally agreed.

At night, the moonlight looked very bright up there within the dark sky. During that beautiful moment, Daniel invited her out to go swimming with him. Thereafter, Sienna followed him to the lake near the house. The air felt kind of cold. She shivered.
“Daniel… why do we have to swim at the cold night like this?” Sienna muttered peevishly. “We can go here by tomorrow in the afternoon when the sun will set above our heads.”
He was quiet when she started the conversation. When she followed where he was gazing at the time, his eyes were on the moon up there.
As soon as she sat next to him, she embraced his arm. She wanted to feel his warm skin.
“Daniel…” she murmured. “Do you hear me earlier?”
Afterward, Daniel stared back at her. Sienna was looking at him bewilderingly.
“Yes, Baby, I do,” Daniel answered gently.
“Good, so…” and then she looked around the dark lake around them. And then she turned to see him again to say, “Why don’t we just go to bed and sleep now?”
He grinned and stared up again at the sky. Then he said, “Don’t you see the beautiful moonlight above us?”
Sienna quickly stared up at the moon in the sky. Then she murmured, “Yes, I see it.”
Suddenly, his finger brushed her lips. She got surprised.
Afterward, she stared up numbly at him. “Daniel…”
Soon after, he bent down to meet her height. Her heart immediately got quickened.
A little kiss brushed off her soft lips like a sweet dream. The sandalwood and bitter rose aroma commingled perfectly in the air. She could feel the strong masculine fragrance swept off through her nose. She began to feel familiar with his manly smell.
A gentle touch tickled her pale white skin. He caressed her cheek like a true lover. While underneath her fragile touch, she could feel he had a broad muscular chest. His skin felt warm like the feeling of summer.
The bright moonlight shone above them. His face looked like a shadow against her. The night was overshadowing his look. But she could feel his firm jaw every time she touched him again. She stood at the edge of the shore with him. The water felt cold, making her kind of freezing when the water brushed her feet. But she could feel safe and warm with him.
They were holding hands with each other. And she could feel his eyes lingered on hers. He would never let go of her hands.
It was almost like a scene in a romantic movie. The moment felt like forever. It was like the time had stopped between them. Just for the two of them, special, and romantic.
And then she heard, he whispered to her, gently and felt ticklish in her ear.
“I love you, Sweet Pie…”
For a moment, her breath paused when she heard him said that. His voice sounded so deep and so manly.
“You are the one and only girl for me…”
She got froze underneath his touch. Especially when those words echoed in her ears.
And he whispered, “Never forget that. Ever.”
“Oh, Daniel…” she moaned when his hand dragged her body closer to him.
“I love you,” Daniel whispered. And then he kissed her hot and wild.
She moaned again and again, feeling the pleasure in between her legs when he kissed her.
“Let’s do it again, Baby,” he invited her. “Let me embrace you once again.”
Then she stared up at him and nodded obediently.
