Emery: A Prince's Adventure novel Chapter 45

Emma
 

The happiness. The joy. The sensation.

It's all pure and unexpected, something so rare.

''Can I open my eyes now?'' I ask, trying to peek through his fingers as he keeps my eyes closed; not wanting me to look at the surprise he has for me. Then again, I can guess that it is something pretty special, due to the smell of candles. Must I add that it's my favourite scented candles?

''Wait, watch your step,'' One of his hand goes down to my waist, slowly stopping me. My lips curve up into a smile, waiting for him to show me, I want to be fully surprised so I'm not complaining about the fact that it's taking forever for him to let me open my eyes.

''You can open your eyes,'' He whispers, slowly.My eyes widen as soon as I open them, surprised.

''For you,'' He adds, as I keep on eyeing the room

''For you,'' He adds, as I keep on eyeing the room.

The apartment is decorated nicely, beautifully. It shows the appropriate amount of casualness and even luxury. My lips continue to curve up into a smile as I am insanely happy by the fact that he had gotten us a new home.Where we could escape from our duties, our title.

I turn to look at Emery, seeing that he is currently eyeing me too; showing how he's sincere and happy about this. There's so much more that he has done for us, for me that I can never be more than thankful, he's an angel. 

From giving us a chance to this, love.

''You don't like it?'' He asks, crossing his arms before making his way towards me; pulling me by closer by the waist but we're kind of out of reach due to the growing baby bump, making both of us chuckle.

''I love it,'' I look straight into his eyes, smiling widely.

Emery caresses the side of my face before leaning in to kiss me by the lips, both of his hands are cupping onto my face, letting me kiss him back with the same rhythm. He, then, tucks a strand of hair behind my ear, slowly.All of a sudden, I feel our baby kicking which causes me to immediately place his hand on the baby bump. My eyes are staring into his with hope, wanting him to feel it too. I've felt the baby kicking for quite some time but due to the fact that he has been away, outstation and mostly busy with his duties, including the company, this is the first for him.

His eyebrows furrow in confusion but his expression soon softens as soon as he feels the baby kicking again. To my surprise, I find his eyes tearing up in which I soon follow. He keeps on placing his hand on my stomach before placing both of his hands, happiness showing.

''That's our baby girl,'' I whisper, stating the gender.

His eyes widen once more, this time, he seems utterly and very surprised, not really believing. He looks down at my stomach again, ''We're having a girl?'' He asks, blinking away the fallen tears, making me nod and chuckle.

''Happy birthday, love.'' I pull him closer, pecking onto his cheek which causes him to wrap his arms around my body, his eyes staring deeply into mine with full of hope and love. It shows clearly, not even hiding it away from me.

We've gone through quite a lot, the challenges of being a married couple, the circumstances. Yes, we've only been married for two years but we've gone through more.

''I love you,'' He breathes out, making me close my eyes.
