Sadie looked at Antonio surprised, and couldn't believe he asked her if she was sick. She felt guilty when she looked into his eyes, and noticed a hint of sadness in his pretty blue eyes. It hurt her hearing him ask if she was sick, and never intended for him to think that way.

She rolled on top of him, and leaned down giving him a kiss "No... I'm not sick. I'm sorry you thought that, and if I gave off that impression, I'm really, really sorry."

He felt relieved hearing her say that she isn't sick, and hugged her tightly. He rolled her onto her back, and smiled "You have no idea how happy that makes me, I was really beginning to worry. I wouldn't even know what to do if you were."

"If I was sick, I would have brought it up right away, only because of what happened with Harlow. But we should go shower; I don't think they would like it if we went in there smelling like sex." she giggled.

After their shower, they headed down to the massage room, with Antonio holding her tightly against him as they walked. Sadie never told Antonio she had a massage the other day, and was in heaven to be having another massage.

They were handed towels, and instructed to lay on their stomachs and to place their towel over their back side, covering their ass.

"Have you ever had this done before?" They were asked by the massage therapist.

"No." Antonio said, and looked at Sadie surprised when she said yes.

"So, you understand, and know what happens during, and after the massage?" The therapist asked.

"Yes, I do." Sadie smiled, feeling thrilled. Not only did she just have amazing sex, she was about to get pampered with a full body massage.

"When was the last time you had one?" The therapist asked, looking at Sadie.

She giggled "Yesterday."

Antonio snapped his head quickly towards Sadie, feeling surprised again. She turned, and looked at him when she felt him looking at her, and smiled wide "What? I told you, I had a me day yesterday."

"You're spoiled." he chuckled, with a big grin.

The therapists explained to both what they were going to do, and to let them know if they were massaging too rough. After their massage, they were told to drink plenty of water, letting them know that water helps release the bad toxins out of their bodies after having a massage.

They both felt good, and relaxed after their massage, and headed back to their room to figure out what they were going to do next.

Antonio sat on the bed next to her, and rubbed her leg "Well... now that we're all relaxed, we can talk, or we could go sit in the jacuzzi, and relax a little more."

She liked the sound of the jacuzzi better than the talk, but knew that she needed to talk to him, and to get everything off her chest. She took a deep breath, turned her body to look at him, and crossed her legs, Indian style "We can talk, I need to say what has been on my mind anyway, otherwise I'll lose it, and go bonkers."

He scooted closer, reached for her hands, and held them tight "Whatever it is... you should know by now that you can talk to me."

"That's part of the problem." she says, looking down, feeling bad having to say that to him.

He furrowed his eyebrows, and felt confused. He always thought she was able to talk to him, and didn't understand what she meant by that, and tilted his head "It is? How?"

"You're never home, between you being an attorney, out with clients all day, and owning all those business properties, it's hard to talk to you. It's just that you're at work all day long, and when you get home, you're in your office dealing with your properties, sometimes even having to go to your main office, and staying there late. Then I'm in bed asleep, when you finally come home. Lately, I've been feeling like a roomie, and have been feeling like you're out having an affair."

Antonio gasped, feeling as if his heart had just been stabbed by a knife. He never thought she would think he would be out having an affair, and was surprised to hear that come out of her mouth. "I'm not having an affair; I would never do that to you. I'm a man of my word, and I'm deeply in love with you." he says, holding her hands tighter "Is that it?"

"No... there's more." she sighed.

"My ears are wide open, and I'm ready to listen. There's nobody here to interrupt us, and we have all night to talk."

"I feel depressed-"

Antonio sighed "I kind of figured that, I thought you seem depressed, and had mentioned it to Ethan." he says, cutting her off.

"It's everything that led to it... with you gone all the time, I'm taking care of eight kids all by myself, I have no help around the house, and trying to teach the girls how to drive... which, I thank you, and Ethan for taking that over." She looked away from him and paused, looking at the wall "Also, we hadn't been intimate for months, up until the other day, and I've just been feeling extremely lonely."

His heart felt heavy, saw the hurt in her eyes, and pinched the bridge of his nose. Now I understand where she thought I was having an affair, he thought to himself "I'm so sorry."

"There's more..."

"More?" he questioned, leaning his head back "What else?"

"I feel that I need more adventure in my life, I love my kids, they mean the world to me, but I need a break from them too. I just really need a break; I feel like I'm about to go haywire. I've also been thinking long, and hard, and I would like to go back to work. I need time away from the house, even if it's only for a few hours."

Antonio ran his fingers through his hair, feeling bad, guilty, and had different kinds of emotions running through his mind. He didn't want her to work, hell he didn't want Harlow working either. He felt he was the man, and was to be the one who provided for his family, but also doesn't want her feeling this way.

"I don't know what to say, other than I'm sorry that you've been feeling this way. I'm not sure how many times I can say that I'm sorry, but I truly am... I know I haven't been home much, and I understand that you need a break, we all do." he smiled "I also understand that you're home every day taking care of the kids, cleaning, cooking, and all that stuff. I just don't want you feeling lonely, or you feeling that you're on your own."

He saw tears rolling down her cheek, and wiped them away "We can work this out, and as for you working, I don't know if I like that idea, I'm the one who should be working, and providing for our family." he says, hugging her.

"Antonio, I need to, I need to get out there, and do something different. It has nothing to do with making money, it's so I can have a break from everything that I've been doing for the last eleven years."

It then hit him with what she said, and looked at her with a curious look "What did you mean about you needing adventure, was that the reason for the bike?"

"Partly, I feel like I needed a change of scenery. Like I said... I'm home 24/7, one of the main reasons why I would like to get out and work, to socialize, and to interact with people, I miss that. We never do anything together, alone anymore. This is the first time in years that we've been alone, and spent some quality time together." she says, feeling better she was getting everything off her chest.

"You know... lately, I have been thinking that we need to go on a vacation, just us, and no kids. Would you like that?" he asked, grinning.

"Yes... I would love that." she expressed happily, then bit down on her bottom lip, knowing there was one more thing she had to bring up "There's one other thing I wanted to talk to you about, something I'm not so sure you'll like... I would like to hire a nanny." she said, quietly.

"A nanny?"

"Yes, like I said, I need help around the house."

He sighed, and began rubbing his face hard, now he knew how Harlow felt whenever he would mention hiring a nanny. His face turned bright red from rubbing so hard, and laid backwards onto the bed, looking up at the ceiling. "You seriously want to hire a nanny..."

"I do, I think it would help me out a lot. At least let me give it a try, who knows, maybe I won't like working, and will miss doing what I have been doing all these years."

Antonio laid on the bed thinking, thinking about everything she said, and how he just wanted her to be happy, and was willing to do whatever it took to get her out of the state of mind she was in.

"If it will make you happy, I'll support you, I may not be happy about it, but I want you to know that I'll support any decision you decide to make. I do care, and I hate seeing you depressed."

She turned towards him, excited to hear he will support her, and laid on top of him smiling "Thank you, thank you, thank you."

She felt relieved, and was dreading talking to him about what had been on her mind for so long. As much as she hated the thought of hiring a nanny, and wanted to be the one taking care of her own children, but in her heart, she knew this was something she had to do. She then rolled onto her back, and smiled.

"How much were you thinking about paying the nanny?" he asked, propping himself up with his one arm, and caressing the side of her face with his other hand.

She rolled onto her side, and propped herself up with her elbow, and looked at him. "I was thinking, since you were paying me $20,000 a month when I was your nanny, I could do the same."

"With you, there were only two, now there are eight."

She giggled, and wondered if he meant paying the nanny $80,000 because of having eight kids to help care for. "You're nuts if you want to pay more than that, $20,000 was way too much to be paying me. Besides, now there are two fifteen-year old's, two nine-year old's, one eight-year-old, and then there are the three five-year old's, which are the only ones that I would need help with. The older ones are in school all day, and Izzy, and Gabby are old enough not to be babysat."

"I suppose you're right."

After agreeing to pay the nanny $20,000 a month, they went out for dinner. Both felt their relationship had been reborn, she was able to talk about everything that had been bothering her, and was happy he was willing to support her decision, something she didn't think he would. They continued enjoying their alone time, and after dinner they hit the pool, the jacuzzi, then made love for hours.

The next day she woke up feeling alive, satisfied, and was still in awe about how their much-needed time together, turned out.

A few days later, Antonio went back to work, and Sadie drove around to different nanny agencies, getting their name out, and letting them all know what they were looking for in a nanny.

Antonio wanted to make it a point to get home from work early, so he could surprise Sadie. He quickly finished looking over all his clients' paperwork, and his notes on his upcoming court cases, before leaving the office.

He hoped this fresh start between the two of them, will continue to get better, and was determined to start spending more time with his family. Something Sadie made him realize that he had been unintentionally neglecting.

Sadie was in the music room playing the piano, while the older kids were at their friend's house, and the younger kids were napping. Antonio walked into the house, and his heart skipped a beat when he heard Sadie playing the piano. With him being gone all the time, he hadn't heard her play in a long time.

He walked to the music room, and quietly leaned against the doorframe, watching her play. He closed his eyes while listening to her play, and thought she was playing one of the most romantic songs that you could ever play on the piano. O Mio Babbino Caro, by Puccini. He always loved when she played the song, and loved how beautifully she played it.

He pushed himself away from the doorframe, walked towards her, and placed his hands on her shoulders when she was finished with the song. He leaned down, and over to her lips, kissing her "That was beautiful as always."

"I had a feeling you were standing behind me, one of the main reasons why I played it." she said softly, and smiling.

"How did you know? I thought I was quiet." he asked, running his fingers through her hair.

"Your scent gave it away, I could smell your cologne... anyway, how come you're home so early?"

"I got all my stuff done that needed to be, and thought about some things that you said. I remembered you saying that you needed some adventure, and something exciting... so I figured we could get the girls to watch the kids for a few hours, and you can take me for a ride on your new bike."

"Seriously?" she asked, excited.

"What do you say?" he smiled, and kissed her forehead.

"All the older kids are with their friends' right now." she sighed.

"Fine, I'll call Ethan."

Sadie started playing another song, before Antonio called Ethan, he leaned over her, resting his hands on top of hers, and played the song with her. Their fingers were in perfect sync, and in the middle of playing, he turned her around and began kissing her with urgency. She reached her hands up, cupped the sides of his face, and kissed him back harder. She was surprised, yet ecstatic that he came home early, and wanted to enjoy the moment with him, unsure when it will happen again...

She stood up, and pressed her body against him, and felt his cock harden while kissing him. She released her lips from his, and lowered herself onto the piano bench, unbuckling his belt, unzipped, and slid his pants down to his ankles, and placed his cock into her mouth, having her way with him.

He panted, and closed his eyes. "The kids."

"They're sleeping, they shouldn't be up for another half hour." she says, assuring him, and wrapping her mouth back around him.

She slowly moved her mouth back, and forth along his cock, and wrapped her hand around his shaft, while moving her hand in perfect motion with her mouth. She pulled back for air, and circled the tip of his cock with her tongue before going down deep, and hitting the back of her throat, causing him gasp loudly.

Her teeth grazed his cock as she moved her mouth back and forth, his legs feeling numb from the pleasures of her warm mouth, tightly wrapped around him. Her hand gently massaged his balls, while her mouth moved faster along his shaft.

His body stiffened, and gasped loudly just before he released. The goosebumps she was giving him, and the jolts of electricity that she was sending throughout his body, he couldn't hold it any longer, and released. As she pulled back, the suction of her mouth was strong, causing a loud popping sound, and looked up at him, smiling as she wiped her mouth with the back of her hand "Thanks for coming home early."

"Damn, is that what I have to look forward to every time I come home early?" he asked, smirking, and wiggling his eyebrows up, and down fast.

"Maybe." she giggled.

They both heard sounds of little feet running down the stairs, and Antonio froze while covering his cobra. He then looked down at his pants that were resting on his ankles, and panicked. "Shit..."

She giggled as he bent over, and pulled up his pants, thinking this was the last thing they needed to see was, him naked in front of Sadie, showing off his junk. "I'll call Ethan and see if he will come over, and watch the kids."

Hope that you enjoyed the chapter and happy to know that she isn't sick, no cancer scare, not pregnant, and not having an affair.
