Staring out the window of the private jet, I watched as we approached the airport just outside of Seattle. Bella was sleeping next to me, her head cradled in my lap. She woke up sick the morning we left. It was a cold or a sinus infection, but she was miserable. Her loud snores filled the cabin, almost waking up but whimpering in her deep, husky voice, raspy from the sore throat.

“Mr. Masen, I’m sorry,” said the flight attendant. “We’re getting ready to land. If you could wake up Ms. Swan and have her put on her seat belt.”

“Thank you,” I replied, giving her a friendly smile. She moved back to the front of the cabin I shook Bella awake and she grumbled. Begrudgingly, she sat up and put on her seatbelt. However, she did put her cheek on my shoulder and continued to snore in my ear. No human should make those noises. Even a gorgeous human such as my bellissima. Ignoring her obnoxious snarling, I gazed back out the window. My mind was racing about how much my life has changed in almost a year.

I had found love.

I was free of Esme’s almost daily torture.

Esme was found guilty of her crimes and will be sentenced according to the law.

My mom, while my relationship with her was still strained, was getting stronger every day. She was almost back the woman I remembered from my childhood. But, I was still bitter about her retreating into her mind. I probably always will be.

I lived through hell to provide medical care for her and it was all in her head.

Well, and Esme’s deal with the doctors keeping my mom medicated.

On top of all that, Bella’s dad, who had been my dad’s best friend, dropped this bombshell that I’m a multi-gazillionaire. I owned half of Swan Hotels, LLC. Bella and I were business partners.

Once I sign the paperwork that Charlie gave to us prior to our departure to Kauai. If I want to sign the paperwork.

Who are you kidding? You’re signing the paperwork.

Edward slept so well in Hawaii. He still cuddled around me, holding me close to his body but his nightmares were non-existent. The only time they made appearance was the first night on the island after we’d seen each other naked for the first time since Jacob and Seth’s wedding. I knew that Edward was still coming to grips that I would not hurt him, but after being abused for so long, he was definitely not used to be touched lovingly, softly and with care.

Each time we’d fooled around prior to that first time in Hawaii, clothes had stayed on. He’d roll his body against mine until we both climaxed, but we never saw each other’s bodies. But, once the clothes came off, Edward was ashamed of his body, despite the fact that he was physically stronger than he’d been before. He still felt like he was being punished. Since that day, we’d explored more of our bodies but had still yet to make love.

“You know it’s rude to stare,” Edward said, blinking open his jade-colored eyes. They were soft and filled with so much love for me, despite his teasing. “Do I have something on my face?”

“No. You’re just beautiful,” I said, laying down next to him and brushing his sun-lightened hair away from his face. His pale skin was now tanned and gorgeous. His scars almost disappeared with each day we were on the island. “So relaxed.”

“All of my fears are back in Seattle. Here? I feel like I’ve been reborn,” he smiled, rolling on his side. He was wearing only a pair of boxer briefs. I was dressed in a black negligee and a pair of lacy boy shorts. He pulled me closer, tracing the angel’s wings on my back. He was shocked that I had gotten such a larger tattoo on my back. With Rose’s help, starting in January, I got these beautiful wings on my back representing Edward’s freedom and my growth as a woman. It took almost a month, but I was pleased and hearing Edward’s gasp when he saw them, it was worth it. Just like when I had seen his tattoos for the first time. “What’s on tap for today?”

“Whatever you want to do,” I beamed. “We could explore the island. We’ve spent most of our trip here at the villa.”

“I saw something on the computer about a sunset cruise. We could do that tonight,” Edward suggested, his fingers gliding down my spine and making me shudder. “Perhaps, a helicopter tour tomorrow morning?”

Flying … yeah. Not a fan. I think with time, I’ll get better, but flying in the private Swan Hotel jet was an experience that I’d not soon forget.

“Here, Edward,” Bella said, handing me a bottle of water. “You still look super pale.” I took it, smiling sheepishly. “Don’t worry about being sick in the plane. I was not a fan when I went on the jet, either. But, you’ll quickly learn that flying commercial sucks.”

“I’ve never flown. Period,” I snorted, taking a deep pull from the water. The limo was driving us to the villa rental. It was overlooking the Pacific Ocean with a large pool and four bedrooms. It seemed like too much for just the two of us, Bella wanted us to have a secluded location. Our trip was going to be unplanned, with no excursions unless we wanted to do something. We just wanted to be alone and were desperate to reconnect as a couple. I’d worked with Dr. Benson and I felt like I was ready to take that next step, making love to Bella. We’d been fooling around, but had yet to cross that bridge. Who would have thought that dry humping would be so hot? Plus, I wanted to wait until I got the all-clear from Dr. Banner. Which I got the day before we departed for Kauai.

Despite my not-so-illustrious sexual history, I was free of any and all sexually transmitted diseases. I was in excellent health, actually. The only issue were my scars and Dr. Banner gave me a name of a plastic surgeon to reduce the scarring on my back, wrists, and the top part of my ass. I wasn’t sure if I was going to go through with it, but I had the option.

“Edward, you’re spacing out,” Bella said, brushing her fingers through my hair.

“Just thinking and looking at the gorgeous scenery,” I smiled, pulling her closer and kissing her neck. She melted against me, her arm squeezing my waist. “I’m glad we’re here. This is so different from Seattle and Forks.”

“It is and it’s exactly what the doctor ordered,” Bella replied. “With everything that happened, we needed to get away.”

“Agreed. Stepping away from the mayhem was a brilliant idea, bellissima,” I said. “Esme’s conviction, Charlie’s revelation and just the insanity of life. And being here in paradise is ideal. I might not want to leave.”

“You just don’t want to fly again,” Bella teased. The limo pulled up to a gorgeous home in a gated community. “Ooh! We’re here!” The limo parked and the driver unloaded our bags, handing Bella a key. “Thank you.” He drove off and we unlocked the door and were greeted by an open concept villa. “God, this is gorgeous!”

“It is and it smells so sweet,” I said, walking outside to the exquisite lanai and huge pool. Bella walked outside, sighing contentedly as she snuggled in my arms. “Seriously, I don’t want to leave. This is heaven on earth. I’ve got my gorgeous girl in my arms, living in the lap of luxury.”

“Well, this girl is exhausted from being up at the butt crack of dawn,” Bella giggled, tugging me into the master bedroom on the main floor.
