QUEENSTOWN, NEW ZEALAND

The moment Jayden opened his eyes, he smiled with content. He never thought he could be this happy. He knew he'd be back in Queenstown. After all, it was the perfect holiday spot. And yes, it was also the perfect honeymoon spot. Only he hadn't been enjoying much of the scenery or the sports he had planned to do yet. He was too busy enjoying his beautiful bride.

He turned to watch her, lying there beside him, still asleep and looking so young and beautiful. Involuntarily, he stroked her smooth cheek with the back of his fingers. She groaned.

"Wake up, sleepy head."

She responded by rolling over and giving her bare back to him. He moved over and kissed her bare shoulder. She giggled. He knew she was awake. He snuggled his nose against the nape of her slender neck as he moved his hand to touch her bare breast.

"Jayden!" she grumbled and turned to glare at him.

"Good morning, sweetheart." He grinned, his eyes twinkling.

"Good morning, Mr. Hot-Choc," Alex greeted.

"Ah, craving for your hot chocolate so early again, eh?"

"Yes," she replied, moving his hand away from her breast.

"So what do you want to do today?" he asked, pulling her to him.

"Dunno." She pouted her lips. "We could go explore Arrow Town. There's also Coronet Peak. We could go there to do some skiing. Well, you'd be doing the skiing. I'd be watching."

"How about some exercise?"

"Okay. Why not? We could go for a long walk along the lake," she suggested. "The fresh air would do us good, or we could go to the vineyard."

Jayden wasn't thinking about the long walk along the lake across their thirty-odd hectares or so of land or their newly acquired vineyard in Central Otago. He was thinking of an exercise that didn't require them to leave their large, luxurious bedroom in their three-story house.

"I was thinking of an exercise right here in bed," he said cheekily.

"Huh?" She raised her eyes to look at him. Then she caught the drift of his meaning and laughed. "You cheeky bugger!"

"Yes. Say yes?" he begged, giving her the puppy dog look.

"All right." She chuckled.

Before she had the chance to change her mind, he pulled her to him and kissed her passionately. Alex wrapped her arms around his shoulders and she surrendered to his kisses and lovemaking once again.
