Any place where we are going? Leonardo asked with hope. 

Well, I've selected top three, not forgetting the fact that you're not going there for vacation. You both are going there just to keep Erick safe. Alright? Orazio said as he knew he'll be showing Leonardo about selected places, he'll be excited to visit there with his newly wedded husband. 

Whip it out, Hermano. Leonardo replied.

One of them is Oceanic. I'm considering Fiji as best place out there, but not letting out of site that's it's quite crowded due to tourism. Another I would say, any Scandinavian country? Like Norway, Sweden or Finland? If not.. then we also have another option for Mauritius. 

Leonardo leaned back in his chair, considering the options. Fiji sounds amazing, but the crowd might be a problem. Scandinavia could be nice and quiet. What's the plan for Mauritius?

Orazio pulled out a file and handed it to Leonardo. Mauritius is beautiful and relatively safe. It has good connectivity and facilities, which will be useful if we need to move quickly. Plus, it's a popular tourist destination, so blending in will be easier.

Their father, who had been silently observing the conversation, finally spoke up. Leonardo, this mission is crucial. Erick's safety is paramount. Choose wisely. Remember, this isn't just about the destination; it's about the logistics and the level of threat in each place.

Leonardo nodded, flipping through the file. I'll discuss it with Erick tonight. We'll make a decision and let you know by morning.

Orazio smiled. Good. And remember, no matter where you go, we'll have a team in place to support you. As they wrapped up the meeting, Leonardo couldn't help but feel a mix of excitement and apprehension. The responsibility weighed heavily on him, but he knew he had to protect Erick at all costs.

Leonardo went back to the room. 

You're finally here! I was waiting for you to come and see I've almost done packing my essentials. Are we going now? Erick asked.

Well, I think leaving in morning is better. Handing Erick a file. Here! We've decided three locations, I informed Orazio and dad I'll inform them about our destination in the morning, and they'll arrange everything for us, you don't even have to worry about logistics. Among all, I think Scandinavia option is better. Leonardo said with smile.

Let's see what else we have, Erick said as he opened the file. 

So, we have Fiji ; Nah, too crowded.

We have Mauritius too - it's not a honeymoon. Well, I think I agree, Scandinavia would be best. 

Great! 

Finland?

Sweden?

Norway?

Where ever you wanna go, mi cariño! Leonardo said out of excitement.

Leo, let's not forget that it's for my safety. I think we should let your brother decide, which country is best for safety. He might've done research about it already. Isn't it? Erick said in serious tone.

That's great! Let's go for dinner, you can tell him on your own. Moreover you'll be having first family conversation. That's interesting? Right? Leonardo said excitedly. First let me change, I'll be down soon. 

Fine, I'll be heading down. Don't make me wait. Erick said and left.

Finally, the entire family was sitting on same dining table. 

Have you decided about the place? Orazio broke the silence.

Yeah, I asked Erick about it. 

He showed me the file, and I think Scandinavia would be best option. It's quite comparatively and also not much seasonal so I'd love that place. But I'm not sure about the country. So I'll leave that for you to decide, moreover you know more about security and all other stuff. Erick replied. 

Make sure that we'll be staying at isolated location. Leonardo added.

Jeronimo smiled. Don't worry Erick. I know this is so early, you guys just got married and you have to leave this place. I understand it's hard, but we are doing this for keeping you safe. 

I'm sure you don't want me to get harmed, Dad. Erick replied.

His statement brightened up the place. Everyone smiled, knowing Erick is now well making himself at home. 

With this, everything's prepared! Orazio stated. I think early morning will be the best time to depart. 

Yes. Be safe. Be strong. Jeronimo said. 

Can I also come with you guys? Luigino pleaded. I promise I won't be an issue during your alone couple time–

Luigino! His mom scolded. 

Erick chuckled followed by Leonardo.

I also want to go! Plissssch. Zolia said making a cute pout.

Luigino. Zolia. This isn't a trip, we can't take you guys with us. It will be dangerous for both of you. Erick said.

Fine! 

Fine! Both of them said simultaneously.

I'll be heading back to room for some more preparations. Leo, I wasn't sure about your stuff so help with that too.

Erick, my men can help with all this stuff. You don't have to worry about it. Leonardo said.

That would be great. 

Maybe tonight they won't be getting any rest, there was alot of stuff to do before they leave. 

Baby! You can rest now, I'll do this by myself. Leonardo said while holding Erick's hands and placing them on his cheeks.

I won't let you take credit of everything. Mi querido esposo. Erick giggled.

Leonardo leant forward to kiss Erick. The moment their lips touched, Leonardo muscle memory excited, he started squeezing Erick into him, just having thought of uniting into one, which is physically impossible. 

Luigino standing at the door could tell from Erick's face, he was enjoying it. 

Ahm- ahm- it's time to leave, love birds. Luigino said sarcastically. 

Both of them stood there blushing. 

We'll be coming, tell them we'll be down in 5 minutes. Leonardo answered.

Woah! You guys are just done in 5 minutes!? My poor Erick! He can't even enjoy Leonardo inside him for too long. Luigino was eating up the raw with his sarcasm skills.

Luigino! Don't forget who I am! Erick won't be able to save you! You little–

Let's go! We don't have much time. Erick finally spoke when he was done enjoying Leonardo getting destroyed by his little brother. 

Yeah, already it's 4:00 AM. We have to be there as soon as possible. Leonardo added to Erick's statement.

Double update is here! I hope you guys enjoy!! <3 

See ya soon, again!
