Master's Untamed Wife

Shui Xian led Raelle down a winding path framed by lush greenery, the soft rustle of palm fronds creating a natural melody in the background. As they walked, the vibrant flowers lining the trail released a subtle, sweet fragrance, adding to the enchantment of the moment. The path opened up to reveal their private residence on the island; a stunning villa that seemed to blend effortlessly with its surroundings.

The residence was a masterpiece of modern elegance and natural beauty, with wide open spaces and floor-to-ceiling windows that welcomed the stunning views of the ocean. The villa's architecture was a perfect balance of contemporary design and tropical charm, with soft earth-toned walls, a sloping roof, and touches of wooden accents that gave it a warm, inviting feel.

Raelle seemed a little excited as she took in the sight of the expansive terrace that wrapped around the front of the villa, offering a panoramic view of the sparkling turquoise waters. The sea stretched out endlessly, its gentle waves lapping against the shore, glistening under the sunlight like a carpet of diamonds. From this vantage point, the colors of the sunset were just beginning to paint the sky with shades of pink, orange, and lavender, casting a warm glow over everything.

"This is where we'll be staying," Shui Xian said, his voice soft, yet filled with pride as he watched Raelle's reaction. "Every morning, we'll wake up to this view. Just you, me, and the ocean."

Raelle turned to him, her eyes reflecting the colors of the setting sun. "It's perfect."

"It wasn't perfect but with you here, it does seem a little too perfect," said Shui Xian cheekily making Raelle smile at him. "Didn't you want to see the traces of my childhood? I think you can find traces here."

Raelle looked towards the door of the villa and then looked back at Shui Xian, "You always keep my words in mind."

"My mind and heart are only enough for you. How can they have the energy to focus on anything or anyone else? Why is it surprising that my mind is filled with your words? It seems quite natural to me though. If I won't remember my wife's words, whose words am I gonna remember?" He smiled, reaching out to brush a stray lock of hair from her face. "I just want to give you everything," he said, his thumb gently tracing her cheek. "And to make that possible, I'll have to remember even the tiniest detail related to you. I can't be careless about this. Because I wish to surround you with beauty, to give you the peace and the love you deserve."

Raelle opened her arms and Shui Xian rushed to hug her. "You are cheesy and too romantic at times too. But I still love you."

"I love you more," he replied.

"I won't argue with you over this. Love isn't a competition so why should we argue about it? Anyway, whoever is the winner won't make the other one a loser. Your win is my win too."

"Wifey, you are also very cheesy when you want to be."

"It's because of you."

"Yes, yes. It's all because of me. When did I deny that? I wanted us to become a cheesy couple and see now, we have become one."

They stood there for a moment, wrapped in each other's arms, the world around them fading into the background. The soothing sound of the waves seemed to echo the rhythm of their hearts, synchronized in this perfect moment. As they looked out over the water, the horizon stretched infinitely, just like the journey of their lives together.

"Are we spending all the time here?" questioned Raelle.

Shui Xian reluctantly pulled away from her and said, "No. We have to go inside. Let's take a rest for a while and have some snacks for now if you are hungry. We'll have a big feast at dinner time."

"I just ate before getting on the plane. It hasn't even been that long. How could I get hungry so soon? Let's go inside and see where we are staying this week."

"Okay," agreed Shui Xian as he led her inside the villa.

The open-concept living space was expansive and airy, designed to let the ocean breeze flow seamlessly through the rooms. The walls were painted in soft, neutral tones, accented by natural textures and wooden elements that brought a touch of the outdoors inside.

The living room featured plush, white sofas that faced a sleek stone fireplace, with large windows framing the endless ocean view beyond. Overhead, an intricately designed wooden ceiling fan turned slowly, adding a gentle movement to the room. The floors were polished stone, cool to the touch, with colorful woven rugs that added warmth and a hint of tropical vibrancy.

Looking the the stone fireplace, Raelle turned to give Shui Xian a meaningful glance. At first, he didn't understand what she meant but when he followed her sight it all sank in making him chuckle. "Is it fate? I think it is. We had our first time in front of the fireplace."

"I remember that very well," responded Raelle. If she didn't remember it, why would she give him that meaningful look just now? She also thought it was quite a fate that the place where they spent their first honeymoon had such a cozy fireplace space and for this honeymoon, they had another one. "Where is our bedroom?"

"You don't wanna look around?"

"I'll see it tomorrow. I wanna go and see the bedroom now."

Shui Xian took her hand and went to their bedroom. As they moved into the master bedroom, Raelle's gaze was drawn to the large canopy bed draped with sheer white fabric that fluttered gently with the breeze. The bed faced a set of sliding glass doors that opened directly to a private terrace, where a cozy seating area invited them to relax and take in the breathtaking ocean view. Soft linen sheets and plush pillows added to the room's romantic, serene atmosphere.

"You have made quite the preparation for this honeymoon," commented Raelle as she sat down on the soft bed and felt her body sinking in. It was really like sitting on clouds.

"I have been looking forward to it for so long, shouldn't I put in more effort into making a perfect honeymoon?"

"Actually, it didn't matter much to me." Shui Xian looked at her with inquisitive eyes as she went on, "Why do you think I came to this honeymoon?"

"Why?" he questioned.

"Of course, because this is the time where you'd only belong to me. This is just between you and me. Since it's that simple for me. Why would I expect anything extra? I'm okay with even..." She considered it for a while before remembering, "Right, remember that cabin in the woods where we spent the night when you were on a business trip and I followed you?"

"I remember," answered Shui Xian.

"I think I'd be even more than happy spending our honeymoon there."

Shui Xian sat down with her on the bed and asked, "Why is my wife so easy to satisfy? Can't you expect more from me?"

"I don't even expect much from life. Why would I have grand expectations from you? Oh, if there is one that'd be that I want you to never let go of my hand. I don't like letting go."

"So, should I stick our hands together with super glue?"

Raelle shook her head at him and Shui Xian chuckled in response. He hugged her waist and put his chin on her shoulder as he kissed the side of her face saying, "Why are you so cute?"

"You have a wrong impression of me. Change it as soon as possible. I'm cool and savvy. Not cute!"

"Cute."

Raelle gave him a look of disapproval and Shui Xian didn't take it seriously at all as he continued to drop kisses on the side of her face to her ear and move to her neck. Raelle slapped his face away lightly, "Stop making trouble. And why do you keep hugging me?" Read exclusive content at mvl

"I am sticking to you. I don't even need super glue to stick together for good."

"Go away."

"Wifey, you are going against your own words. Just now you said not to let you go but now, you are telling me to go away. Stick with one or I'll get confused and then I'll selectively follow only one."

"You already do things selectively."

Shui Xian agreed with those words as he fell back on the bed and since his arms were still tightly wrapped around Raelle's waist, she was pulled along with him. He nuzzled the side of her neck feeling really happy inside.

"Let's stay like this for a while."

"Why?"

"Just because I want to stay like this with you. It feels peaceful like this. I can just lie down here with my arms around you without any hurry to get up to do something. It feels good this way."
