He emerges back in the living room and my eyes caught his bare feet then travelled up to find he's in a towel wrapped low around his hips and another towel hanging around his neck, His abs defined, biceps highlight when he ruffles his hairs and then his I-know-all Smirk playing on his lips brings me to my senses, and now I'm checking if my mouth is closed or not.

He sit across me. I shift an inch. He folds his arms. His lips turned up he appeared closed off. He didn't say anything, only hmmed, so I began, "I am sorry."
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEY0La5OXeD
Yup. I have nothing to add or reason nonsense.
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsy41YGer2g
"Since you have nothing to say, let Me ask you questions." The smile was gone and he looked all serious now, not a hint of his disappeared grin.
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT7K28VTqcl
I Bob my head and prepare myself for the worst. "Why did you wanted to meet the old man so bad? You seem to forget my last warning."
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMyEK3TgQdH
"I missed him, and Kai."

"I thought you were clear about keeping them far and safe. Plus, it's more about your safety. What had you so carried away by your emotions, Zenovia?" He cannot make sense of my actions because he have only seen me act logically, like a sensible lady I am and not someone who let's her emotions drive her wheels.
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0txv5FqwBd
Missing them was fine but reaching out is out of question. I get it, But I had questions!
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8rvKVg8AK
He can tell, and he wants me to say. I can tell him. Right? After all he's one of mine and the only one I trust, I only one who built my Expectations. I am vulnerable to him.
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcg3SsapNB
"I was catching up. I was gone for so long I had.. been missing on a few details. Things weren't adding up. It seemed neces- important." I am fumbling with words. The fault is mine but I have to tell him my mind or he won't let this go.
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDlCEMPNiFk
He kept quiet, his eyes fell to his knee, that way he isn't intimidating directly with scrutinizing eye contact so I added the question bugging me from long taking the chance.
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRAr9Yi8Jkw
"And Why is that I'm learning things I should have come across naturally?" From outside sources I should have added.
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKEG0LbYxV
"Because You Weren't supposed to know any of that!" He snaps His holler reverberated in my ears like a clap of thunder, I jump, a slight tremble ran down my lungs, such is his reaction I witness, his patience wane fast.
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAZ4jetD6lP
"When I'm working on it, all you have to do is not intervene and make things complicated."
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0TnAyxgy1b
"It's not intervening, I'm trying to help."
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHEihPYWWS
"Well Dr. Marcell, you're not helping."
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSn1GEBA1S1
"We agreed you willingly limit your visits only to the hospital, your workplace. Not setting meetings with your relatives. Especially the vulnerable ones. What do you have to say on that?" He hit right on the nail with much calmer chilling affect, my bone twitches. Seriously.
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaNXK122gLp
Right st this moment when he puts it like this, none of my reasons seem valid.
"I'm really sorry. But I had to. And I found out about our leaked pictures online. You know that?"
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6TiyA24UK
"Majority of them can be taken down but a few get by. No-one can stop it. It isn't doing you any harm. I just didn't wanted you bothered by it. That's why I kept it from you."
Right. He's a prominent figure. A well-known businessman, his presence can't be left unrecognised. It's only increasing his popularity.
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2cPL1FGv2r
"That aside, You didn't tell me Notarios involved in hubert's case." I slump, my brows creased and face tense.
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZqIxr807y
"You should get over him." I saw a pained expression in his eyes before he hid it. "Let them deal with him. Leave his matter as it is, Don't dive in the ditch volunteerily. He's gone. I don't want his shit bothering you so I wanted you to focus on your life alone. It'd be better that way. But since you met that old -
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3TYGfWED07
"Gavin." I correct sternly.
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzu3klp6uRm
"Right." He huffed, and finished his sentence. "Gavin..Your brain is turned into a hotpot once again."
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lFD3mGqsD
"And you're the only suspect of hubert's fiancee tormenting state. What about that?" My imploring eyes met his once again, like equals.
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXUqMVORkl4
He smirks. "She deserves that! messing with my woman. My men are in the system, she'll turn into an obedient cow in no time. Though I didn't wanted you affected by bygone bitches you still adament on seeing those people."
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUj91YtKrRa
"I am going to meet Hubert in a few days." I inform him, now that we were on that topic.
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wfmArrSBS
He stares hard at me.
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqnEyg2Ieh
"It's Gavin's wish. I have to." I sigh at his hard look and he ducks his head, resting his elbows on his knees and his head caught in his hands. He looks like a tired player after a sweaty match, really hot. I shouldn't be salivating on his veined arms ruffling back hairs in deep thought, he lifts his head his fingers stooping down to his neck, he tilts his head producing a popping sound as he crackles his neck and relaxes. His suddenly looks into my eyes and I divert my gaze realising what I've been doing. I hear his release of breath and steal a glance his way. Shit! He caught me. A wolfish grin was playing on his lips now. I cleared my throat looking slantways.
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1femD1adCZ
I get back on topic as fast. "Don't you think Notarios will come to know of my relations with hubert and his family they'll hunt me down and..and may harm my Kai!?" I say remembering what we've been talking on.
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAjKBa2keAl
I waited a beat, I felt him get up and I met his dark eyes. He was towering over me. I draw in air because next second he lifts me by the waist and I grab his shoulders to support myself, he sits down on my place and place me on his lap. The air in my lungs suspended when I feel his chiseled chest against my bare arms and goddamn if his towel gets loose. His his mischievous eyes meet my dazed ones, I feel my cheek brighten the heated room burning now.

"That's why I have been trying to get in touch with the family. Infact today you were safe because the meeting place had been one of my nightclubs otherwise things could have turned ugly all for I know. That old man is the link and he's naive, why'd you do that? Going against me..You could've asked me." He says. He's sounds dissappointed. Whatever it is, his feelings are intensifying my own. I'm not even feeling the seriousness of our discussion.
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVIGgfP9xdB
"You never told me anything despite planning everything from the start. How can I even about something I am not made aware about." Sounds like a taunt but I can't think of anything better as of now.
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQpFxDtZng4
I continue, this time mustering a bit of confidence, "Tell me what's going on yourself and I won't have to depend on other sources for it."
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzG8dvbSaCq
"I didn't tell you because nothing is certain for now." He says his rippled arm across my middle keeping me attached with his heart and other one combing my hairs back, I also rest my head on him, it feels I'm resting on a rock, a living rock which tranquilizes me, blankets my brain.
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnWaDykoW21
His touch is like drug to me. His Breathings assures me. His hand stroking the tiny rosy sensitive flesh on breast is keeping me aware of his touch, anticipation rising for more. The sincerity of our discussion was lost on me.
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkhP2ZmfbXp
But.
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41b6gTIhAM
I want this, our nearness and more of him.
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6K2xJBAOzo
"It doesn't matter." I breathe out. I want to feel the vibration of his voice, meaning behind those words is starting fall on deaf ears yet I struggle to understand just the jist of it.
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKEffM0sFH8
"I have arranged a meeting with the Notarios. You will clarify there, I will claim you being my Woman. You will be spared."
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKQ9qxqMzX
"Why is that? I don't get it."
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKPWJOsmaq
"A taken woman isn't hit upon. Please trust me, Zenovia. Did I ever did something that cause you harm?" He's too near to my earlobe, I think licked me too, the tingling sensation travel down to my curled toes.
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5qZlvN9xKd
"I just didn't think it through. I'm really sorry. Please forgive me. I'll never play so carelessly with my life again." I say sitting up removing his hand. I'm forgetting what more to ask, what more he's avoiding, keeping me in the dark.
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzidBHMKyE9
"Good. Next time you want to meet someone and you can't control your urge, you tell me." I Bob my head up and down and he twists my arm back and I crash back on his bare chest, he suspends my wiggling with his one arm ripping my dress off, he's too fast and strong, controlling my limbs like a toy's. Our hot breaths mingle as I tilt towards him. His callous fingers momentarily grazing my thighs, "Words baby." He whispers hoarsely. I go weak in my legs. If this is the way he's going to distract me,
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQXXcsZuYJn
I might as well give in.
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JR08EOptk
"Yes."
279Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXITjmlqN5
I saw my lust refect in his eyes and I open my mouth to capture his.
