CHAPTER 49

"There's no problem. It must be nice to be the first lady of such a lovely country."

"It is a blessing and a difficult job at times, but I enjoy it."

"All right, then. You will not be abandoned as long as your heart is open and loves what it is doing."

"You speak like an old man as if you've been through a lot at your age."

"I certainly did, but I am grateful for it all because I am who I am now, and I am sitting next to another powerful woman."

"Not everyone sees it as positively as you do. I already like you. I noticed you were talking to Tyrel for quite some time."

“Oh, him? We were just talking about fashion, and I noticed you have a lovely son. You should be proud of yourself."

"He can be a pain at times, so I assumed he offended you in some way."

"No, he was well-behaved. You ought to give him credit."

"I'm glad someone sees him in that light. You should come to our country more often; there are many sights to see."

"I'll return to see the sights another time. This is a short visit, and my daughter is alone at home, so I'm afraid I won't be able to stay long."

"You've got a daughter?"

"I've got two. The oldest is twenty years old, and the youngest is seven years old."

"You appear young for someone with two daughters."

"They're both adopted; I'm afraid I won't be able to have children of my own."

"Oh, I'm sorry I asked."

"It's fine. I consider myself fortunate to have both; they bring me joy."

"Are you then married?"

"Not yet, but I'm sure soon."

"Are you seeing someone?"

“Yes.”

"He's in luck."

"Indeed," she said as she noticed Anne approaching her.

When Anne arrived, she said, "this is my daughter Anne, and Anne, this is the first lady, say your greetings."

Anne looked at her as they exchanged greetings.

"What is it?"

"I have an urgent call for you."

"All right, I'll be with you in a minute," she said, looking at Mrs. Linken before continuing, "I'm afraid I'm going to have to leave. I'll see you later," she said as she walked away.

She went outside and found Anne holding the tablet, which she took from her. The
congressman had made a video call.

"What can I do for you, Congressman Walter?"

"Congratulations on becoming a Garbera; I couldn't wait for you to come back, so I made this call."

“Thank you.”

"I heard you're in Queensland; when will you be back?"

“Tomorrow. Why?”

"Because my mother wanted to see you, I thought I'd call first."

"I'll see her when I get back, and I have something I need to talk about with you as well."

"Then I'll be waiting for your return."

"Bye," she said as she hung up the phone.

She went back inside after returning the tablet to Anne. She just wanted it to be over because she was tired and needed a good night's sleep.

She was relieved to be back home, and she immediately put Leah to bed after arriving from Queensland. She retired to her master bedroom after seeing her sleep, where Dylan awaited her. Before going to bed, she took a relaxing bath with Dylan's help.

"From your appearance, it appears you were successful."

"I was, indeed. He explained everything to me and signed the final contract."

"That's great news; everything can return to normal now. So, are you going back to your apartment?"

"I don't want to return. I'm so used to being with you that I can't bear to part with you again," he said as he embraced her.

"Dylan, make love to me."

"I thought you'd never ask," he said as he kissed her lips tenderly.

She could feel his fingers removing the straps from her nightgown. His touch made her skin shiver. He took off all his lingerie and threw it on the floor. He kissed her slowly as he slid down the lace underwear she was wearing beneath, stripping her naked. Dylan made her lie down on her stomach next to him.

"You are the most beautiful woman I have ever laid eyes on," he said softly, squeezing her close.

"You are beautiful and strong, too," she said as she kissed that Adam’s apple.

Dylan gently stroked her back. As if calming a nervous mare, his palms smoothed the elegant lines of her back.

"You are absolutely lovely!"

He began to kiss her buttocks' springy curves. His kisses were infuriatingly sexy, falling on her naked skin like fire petals and moving to where she was sensitive.
He brushed her thick hair away from her shoulders, allowing him to kiss the nape of her neck and the delicate skin behind her ear.

"I missed you so much," he said, pressing his lips against the corner of her mouth.

She rolled onto her back, exposing her undeniable nakedness for him to see. She looked up into his eyes and saw exactly what she had done to him.

"Damn Violet," he said hoarsely, "you are so lovely."

His entire being was focused on her eyes, mouth, and the curves of her breasts, complete with swollen pink nipples. She drew his head down to her breasts and softly yelled his name as he took one of her nipples in his mouth, sucking gently at first, then with tight passion, before moving on to the other nipple.

His kisses ran down her stomach, abdomen, and finally between her slim thighs. His tongue brushed against her there, and she could smell her own arousal.

"Do you want me?" he asked, a smoky smile on his face.

"You already know I do."

He parted her thighs and kissed her softly there, kiss after kiss, each kiss pressing harder, more hungrily, into her, his lips parting so he could taste her.

She felt him take her into his hot, wet mouth, drinking her essence, sucking, and licking exactly the right place, in exactly the right way, leaving her in ecstasy. She arched her back, called his name, and rubbed herself against his mouth until she burst out laughing in his mouth.

"I want you," she declared vehemently.

He took off his shorts and threw them to the ground. Dylan pushed her back against the pillows, his face flushed and dark, and whispered, "I want you."
