Chapter 284
“Goodness, I can’t believe you made me climb a mountain for our honeymoon!” Sanya complained, gasping for breath. While she enjoyed outdoor activities and the thrill of a mountain climb, she was also naturally lazy at times. She loved joining Rain and Clifford on adventures like this, but as soon as the exhaustion hit, she tended to complain.
She squealed in surprise when William suddenly scooped her up in his arms.
“You should’ve told me earlier,” William teased, grinning. “We’re almost there. Let me carry you the rest of the way. I promise it’ll be worth it p>
Sanya couldn’t help but smile at her husband’s grin, which made her feel like she might melt. William was so handsome and endearing. Her heart softened seeing him so carefree, especially after the emotional rollercoaster of last night and this morning, when he had been overwhelmed with emotion because of his father’s condition.
They had left after lunch when her father-in-law had urged them to go ahead with their plans.
As they reached their destination, the sun was beginning to set, casting a warm glow on the landscape. William, covered in sweat from the hike, was also exhausted, and Sanya absentmindedly wiped his forehead with her hand.
She couldn’t help but find the scent of his sweat strangely appealing. There was something raw and seductive about it. Her face flushed at the thought of what might come next, knowing they were bound to consummate their marriage. She gulped as anticipation swirled within her.
Last night, nothing had happened. They had simply cuddled, both drifting to sleep after comforting him through his tears.
“We’re here,” William hummed, gently setting her down on the ground.
Sanya, still lost in thoughts of finally making love to William, didn’t immediately notice the soft sound of rushing water nearby. When she did, her eyes widened in awe.
“This… this is incredible!” she gasped, taking in the stunning sight before her. The waterfall cascaded down into crystal-clear water, surrounded by lush greenery. But what truly caught her attention were the twin villas perched on either side of the falls.
“Your family owns this?” she asked, her voice filled with awe.
William smiled and nodded as he led her toward the left villa. “We own this side. The right side belongs to my older brother and sister-in-law. To be honest, they haven’t even stayed here yet; the contractor just finished it two days ago. They’ll probably come here after our three-day stay p>
Sanya looked around, still in disbelief at the beauty of the place. William, holding her hand, smiled knowingly. “You must be tired. Why don’t you p>
He stopped mid-sentence when Sanya suddenly pulled her hand away, quickly undressing in front of him. The cool, clear water was far too tempting, and with the heat of the hike still lingering on her skin, she couldn’t resist.
Sanya couldn’t deny it, she also wanted to show off her perfect curves to William in the two-piece bikini Rain had gifted her. Along with the bikini, Rain had included an assortment of seductive, barely-there lingerie, and Sanya had brought every piece, determined to turn their honeymoon into something unforgettable.
She walked toward the water, a grin on her face as she stepped into the cool, inviting pool. Her excitement bubbled over as she playfully splashed around. “It’s so relaxing!” she called out, laughter ringing in the air. “Come on in p>
Before she could fully revel in her teasing, she felt his strong arms wrap firmly around her waist, pulling her against him. He was so swift she barely had time to turn and gauge his reaction.
“You tease,” William whispered into her ear, his warm breath sending shivers down her spine. He nibbled gently at her earlobe, and a jolt of sensation rippled through her. Her heart raced. Yes, she had purposely teased him, but there was no way she’d admit that out loud.
Sanya’s breath hitched, and she couldn’t help but blush. The warmth of the moment was almost overwhelming, and her pulse quickened as their playful teasing shifted into something deeper.
William’s arms tightened slightly around her waist, his touch both steady and teasing. Sanya’s breath hitched as he leaned closer, his voice a low murmur in her ear. “You, how could you tease me like this p>
She turned her head slightly, her cheeks flushed from more than just the cool water. “I-I wasn’t teasing,” she stammered, her playful tone betraying the nervous excitement bubbling within her.
William chuckled, the deep sound vibrating against her back. “Oh, you weren’t?” His hands gently trailed down her sides, his touch sending a shiver through her. “Then why are you making it so hard for me to behave myself p>
Sanya tried to focus on the calming sound of the waterfall, but the warmth of his breath against her ear and the feel of his chest pressing against her back were impossible to ignore. She turned around in his arms, her heart pounding, and placed her hands on his shoulders.
“I feel sticky, and the water’s so tempting. Besides, it’s not like I’m naked,” Sanya countered softly, her playful smile betraying her growing confidence. “I’m wearing a bikini, and it’s perfectly normal to see women wear this in pools p>
William’s gaze made her blush furiously. He looked at her like a predator eyeing its prey, his intense eyes igniting a mix of shyness and excitement within her.
“I feel sticky too,” he admitted with a mischievous grin, pulling her closer. “But my plan was for us to shower together, naked, inside. Although, with this perfect setting and no one else around He trailed off, his voice dropping an octave, teasingly low. “Don’t blame me if I get a little naughty here. You, my wife, are irresistible and very tempting right now p>
His lips hovered over hers, stealing her breath, before sealing them in a passionate kiss. The intensity of it left her dazed and breathless, her heart pounding wildly as he pulled away.
“I want to take you right here, right now,” William murmured against her lips, his voice thick with desire. “But it wouldn’t be comfortable for you. Let’s have a quick dip and head inside p>
Before Sanya could respond, he swept her off her feet, cradling her effortlessly in his strong arms. She let out a surprised laugh, instinctively wrapping her arms around his neck as he waded deeper into the water.
