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."
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3tTWUV8mWs
Yup. I have nothing to add or reason nonsense.
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOrXHQgnsWz
"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.
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQM0qxxFn2g
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."
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLKofNyUi0
"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.
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmwpaontLW
Missing them was fine but reaching out is out of question. I get it, But I had questions!
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdafkWNa2RU
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.
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6LaGE2oQu
"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.
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqcq9Rz9fb
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.
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy9ykDnQjuv
"And Why is that I'm learning things I should have come across naturally?" From outside sources I should have added.
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJAXuDoTwB
"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.
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUxgH0hoDoH
"When I'm working on it, all you have to do is not intervene and make things complicated."
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWeOLypuR04
"It's not intervening, I'm trying to help."
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2mKe9G1MF
"Well Dr. Marcell, you're not helping."
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7c8bFjtEu
"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.
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdnfQffkMJb
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?"
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK78rkpa8Yb
"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.
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Q3smGaiE9
"That aside, You didn't tell me Notarios involved in hubert's case." I slump, my brows creased and face tense.
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBJSmOgWHz8
"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 -
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVrlKJ3Ainq
"Gavin." I correct sternly.
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCS6eOpSyH6
"Right." He huffed, and finished his sentence. "Gavin..Your brain is turned into a hotpot once again."
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9WEucqL3o
"And you're the only suspect of hubert's fiancee tormenting state. What about that?" My imploring eyes met his once again, like equals.
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa3ZXZaaQML
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."
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeukYSS0BQO
"I am going to meet Hubert in a few days." I inform him, now that we were on that topic.
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoB4LEnCZp8
He stares hard at me.
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjOG80Ns1V
"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.
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmrmrKn6acI
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.
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzpMmw4Ixhk
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.
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC6DIucHR2A
"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.
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qmqmAn6HV
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."
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRbtZEzppaF
"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.
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJw6IxvF1sU
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.
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ7Y1ZwOPnf
But.
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ciz3vKe7w
I want this, our nearness and more of him.
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBfqjkHMbo
"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.
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWHsQoKgpS
"I have arranged a meeting with the Notarios. You will clarify there, I will claim you being my Woman. You will be spared."
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLlJNwXAeqp
"Why is that? I don't get it."
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYMZWYYbbfg
"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.
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNW7bzTchad
"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.
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtRgCJ8FlFb
"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,
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfxxqbBiySF
I might as well give in.
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoXNUTZIR1o
"Yes."
402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6MFvoVi5E
I saw my lust refect in his eyes and I open my mouth to capture his.
