29. Hanky Panky
The day had finally come for Luna Viviana to fly to Australia. She was mentally and emotionally ready for her first trip outside the country without her husband by her side.
She sat on the bed, checking her bags, not wanting to miss anything, especially her passport and other important travel documents. She can't enter Australia without them.
Her bags were already taken by the servants and already loaded into the trunk of her husband's car. She felt happier nowadays because her husband had been giving her enough attention in bed and outside the bedroom as well.
He became attentive to her needs and affectionate, making her happy and satisfied.
So far, their marriage life has turned peaceful again just the way she likes it. Although sometimes he became absent-minded and zoned out as if something was bothering his mind and if she asked him why, he would say nothing.
She knew that her husband was busy with the landslide currently going on in the villages, and he was hands-on with helping the suffering people in his pack. Although she doesn't want to leave him, her aunt was already expecting her in Australia.
She was brushing and styling her into an elegant bun style in front of the mirror when her husband entered the room. She looked at him smiling.
"Are you ready now to go to the airport?" Alpha Callum asked.
"Yup," she nodded her head. "Are you sure you can take care of everything around here alone?" she asked, studying his face closely.
"Definitely. I have Beta Amir and my men to help me with everything. Besides, the house staff are efficient when it comes to their chores and responsibilities. I have nothing to worry about. Just enjoy bonding with your aunt and her family. Explore the country. Don't worry about me, I can manage everything because I have many people who are willing to help me," he assured her.
"Nice to know that," she said, standing up and hugging him tightly. "I'm going to miss you, hon."
"I'm going to miss you too." Alpha Callum planted a kiss on her forehead. "You take care of yourself there. Don't forget to keep me posted every day about your activities there," he said.
Luna Viviana grinned. "Of course, I will."
"Are you ready now?" he asked.
"Yep, give me a moment. I'll just take a pee in the bathroom," she said and rushed to the bathroom.
A few minutes later she emerged from the bathroom door and finished styling her hair in front of the mirror. Then she sprayed her body with perfume and grabbed her designer bag from the dresser table. "I'm done, hon. Take me to the airport now."
"OK." Alpha Callum replied.
They walked to the door, exited the bedroom and went downstairs, boarding the car waiting outside on the front lawn.
Alpha Callum slid into the driver's seat and started the engine. He looked at her and said, "Are you sure you didn't forget anything? Think carefully before we leave the house?" He reminded her.
"I'm pretty sure everything I need is already in my bags. Let's go now to the airport," she answered positively.
"OK." Alpha Callum steered the car towards the gate and drove straight towards the open highway, heading to the airport.
After half an hour of traveling, they finally arrived at their destination.
Alpha Callum removed the luggage bags from the trunk of the car and accompanied his wife inside the airport. They stayed in the waiting lounge for a few minutes.
The couple hugged and bid each other farewell when it was already time for Luna Viviana to check in to board her flight.
"Take care of yourself in Australia," he said, planting a kiss on her head.
"You too, take care of yourself, hon. Bye," she said, kissing his cheeks.
The couple finally let go of each other. Luna Viviana walked away, pushing the luggage cart towards the check-in area.
Alpha Callum remained rooted on the spot until his wife faded from his sight. He looked at the check-in area one last time before leaving the airport.
He went back to his car and drove straight home.
Half an hour later, he arrived at the mansion safely and went straight to his home office.
Beta Amir was checking his notepad and already had a cup of coffee ready for his boss. "Your coffee, Alpha," he said, placing the cup and saucer on the desk.
Alpha Callum sat on the chair, picked up the cup and started sipping his coffee. "Did something important come up while I'm away? Do you have something for me to sign?" he asked.
"Yes, the budget for construction materials and the groceries we have to buy tomorrow for relief goods," Beta Amir said, putting the documents on the desk.
Alpha Callum inspected the documents for a few minutes then affixed his signature.
"And here's another one for payroll," Beta Amir said, putting another document on the table.
Alpha Callum checked the pages of the documents then signed his signature afterward.
"Anything else?" he asked while sipping his coffee.
"Nothing follows, Alpha," Beta Amir put the documents inside the brown envelope.
"I'm going to the farm today. If something comes up, inform me right away through our mind link," Alpha Callum said, rising to his feet.
"Copy Alpha," Beta Amir replied.
Alpha Callum left the room and proceeded to the gym room. When he arrived there, he initiated the teleportation process and vanished from the room in the blink of an eye.
A few moments later, he landed in the living room of the farmhouse.
Since there was no one in the living room, he climbed the stairs and went to the second floor, knocked and entered Clarice's room.
She was currently reading a book while sitting on a chair. She can't leave the house because it's raining heavily outside.
"Babe, you're back!" She said, beaming when he entered the room. "Where is your wife now?" she asked, rising to her feet. She planted a kiss on his lips when he had already reached her side.
"I just accompanied her to the airport a while ago," he replied, lowering himself to the vacant chair.
"So, what is your plan for tomorrow? Shall we go ahead as planned?" she asked excitedly.
"Yes, of course! I can't wait to see our son. We should get him as soon as we can," he replied. "Our journey tomorrow starts at 1:00 in the afternoon. I will fetch you from here using a rented car," he explained.
"OK. I have already prepared everything for our trip, such as the groceries and toys. Everything is ready," she said excitedly. "I can't wait to see our son again and hold him tight in my arms," she gushed in a thrilled voice.
"Me too. I'm very excited!" Alpha Callum smiled. He picked her up swiftly in his arms and deposited her gently on the bed. "Let's cuddle for a few hours before I return to the mansion for my Alpha duties," he said, nuzzling her ears, stroking her inner thighs, sending shivers of anticipation into her belly.
Clarice giggled in amusement. "You're so naughty!"
"Let's have a hanky-panky, a quickie for short," he said, chuckling in amusement while biting her ears.
The couple erupted in laughter.
After the laughter died, the room was engulfed in thick velvety silence and the couple vanished from the room in the blink of an eye.
