Rescuing His Captive Mate: Saving The Future Luna

I woke up the morning after the wedding with my wife pressed against my chest. It was how I usually work up; the only difference was now Star was my wife. I don't think that I would ever get over that. I was married. I had the best and most beautiful wife in the world. This was my heaven.

And I wanted to show that angel of my own personal heaven that sex wasn't the only thing that I had planned for our honeymoon, the wedding night for sure, but not the entire time. Just a few more over the week that we were going to be here, if we even lasted the week. Knowing Star, she might want to go home to see the boys early.

One place that I was eager to take Star was the beach. She had seen the beach back home, but it was a little chilly out for swimming that day, and we had other plans. Yeah, it had ended similarly to last night, damn I really am just a horny animal. Chay was right.

Anyway, I was going to be taking my beautiful wife to the beach so that she could swim in the ocean for the first time. I would take her shopping and out to nice meals, and I would do anything that she asked me to. 

We had breakfast brought to us in the room. Room service was great for times like this, but I was going to be taking her out a lot as well. I technically could cook for her here since there was a full kitchen in our suite, but I wasn't going to. I wanted to show her lots of new places. Places I haven't been to yet, they were all places that had been suggested to me by Reece.

The sun was out, and it was a gorgeous day so the first thing we did after eating was get changed and head straight to the beach. I kind of wanted to see my sexy little wife on the beach in her bikini at sunset, but there was no saying that I couldn't bring her back to fulfill that fantasy later.

Now though, the beach was relatively empty since it was later in the year, September to be exact, and it was a Monday so most people were at school or work. That made for a better time for us.

As we walked out onto the sand, I watched Star's eyes go wide.

"I know I saw the beach before when we were out, but this is so much more beautiful, I just don't remember the beach being like this last time."

"No, that one was more rocky and is less friendly to most people. It was mostly for us to visit for sport and scenery." I explained it to her as she gawked at the water.

"This looks amazing though, I just want to run right into the water and feel it against my skin."

"So do it." I grinned at her. "I will put our stuff down, you go."

"No, I want to go with you. Let's put our stuff somewhere, then run into it together."

I loved how kind and caring she was. It melted my heart and just made me want to be with her even more. Together we walked to a spot that was just above the tide line and set up our umbrella and laid out our towels .I also set down a cooler that was filled with some drinks. This was all stuff that I had bought today, but that was part of the experience as well.

After our stuff was set down, I watched as Star slowly, and embarrassedly, took off the sun dress that was over her swimsuit. I was happy to see that it was a bikini, that part of my fantasy was true. Thank you Chay for helping her pack.

I only needed to take off my shoes and my t-shirt, I was already wearing my shorts. So once that was done, and Star's sandals were set aside, I took her hand. It was now time for us to run straight to the water, together.

The water was warm to the touch, for us anyway. We were splashing through it like a couple of giggling kids. It was amazing, though Star wasn't moving very far away from the shore.

"What's the matter?" I asked her as she pulled away from me a little and toward the shore.

"I don't know how to swim." She looked like she thought that was a bad thing.

"That's fine, I do. And don't worry, I don't plan to let go of you at all. I don't want someone thinking they could steal you away from me." She smiled at that because she thought it was funny. "Come on, I'll teach you."

After that, she really did move toward me and was more willing to swim with me. True to my word, I really did show her how to swim a little. She wasn't going to be perfect after one lesson of course, but she was less scared at least.

When we started to get hungry enough, we dried off and put our clothes back on. I wanted to take her to get some food and then do some shopping and sightseeing. We went to a nice cafe and had lunch before we went to some of the places Reece suggested. We went to famous places and little known places, we went shopping, and we took lots of pictures everywhere.

That was basically how all of our days went while we were on our honeymoon. We went shopping, we went around the city, and we went to the beach. I did take her to the beach at sunset one night so I was able to see that like I wanted to. We talked, we enjoyed each other's company, and we bought way more stuff than we needed to.

Still, just like I knew my Star would say, she missed the kids. Hell, I missed them too. We may have called them daily and video chatted some, but it wasn't the same. Not to mention there was my family there that Star wanted to be around more. She just really wanted to get home after a few days. And to be honest, there wasn't much else for us to do. We had seen and done all that we wanted to.

I had taken Star to the zoo, the aquarium, famous parks, everywhere. We had done it all so quickly that there was just no need to stay for the whole week. That was why, after just a few days, we were ready to go home. We packed up all the gifts and souvenirs that we bought for everyone and headed back to the airport.

Neither of us were sad to be leaving early, and neither thought it was wrong to be going back so soon. I know that everyone at home might say that we're hopeless, but I didn't care.

It took a few hours between the flight and the car ride home, but we were there by the evening, and when we walked through the front door, the first thing we heard was the cry of multiple kids as their pounding footsteps came charging at us.

"Mommy!"

"Daddy!"

  "You're home!"

"We missed you!"

All of the words were repeated by so many little voices that I lost track of who said what. All we did was drop our stuff and open our arms for them. Nine of the thirteen boys plowed right into us and nearly knocked us over as they tried to puppy pile on us.

"We missed you too." Star was squeezing three of the boys.

"We came back early because we missed you all." I hugged the remaining six in my arms.

"Did you have fun at least?" I heard Chay's chastising voice as she looked at us from somewhere nearby.

"Yes, it was great, but we were bored and wanted to come home." Star answered for us.

"Bored? Seriously Artem, did someone need to give you pointers before you left?" Morgan laughed.

"Shut up." I snapped at him. "That part was fine. We got bored of the city. We can do that anywhere."

"Anywhere, huh? Are you going to become exhibisionists now or something?" Morgan goaded me again.

"You know what, I'm not talking about this anymore." I was still glaring at him.

"Yeah, yeah, whatever. You know you enjoy my joking."

"Oh hush, Morgan." Toby walked into the room. "We're glad you're back."

"Thank you." I nodded at him. "And I trust that all was well while we were gone."

"Perfect as could be. It was only a short time after all." He nodded as he answered me.

"Yeah, I would have doubled my time away, not cut it in half. Y'all are really bad at math, you know that." Morgan was still laughing as he made jokes, but that was just who he was, and we wouldn't have it any other way, most of the time that is.

Still, I was glad that we were home. Now we could get on with some of the other things that we had planned. Things weren't going to be slow or anything like that. This was going to become the busiest time of our life together by far. But that in itself was going to be great, and I couldn't wait to tackle it head on.

Starting tomorrow, or rather Monday since tomorrow was Saturday, we were going to the courthouse so we could file the petition to adopt the boys. If we didn't get the right judge, it could be held up. We needed to be careful here. Very careful.
