Even after their lovemaking, she doesn't look like she's on an adrenaline rush. He sighed and kissed her navel where he wrote his marking. 'Alessandro Only'. He smiled at her and kissed her lips. She pushed but he continued kissing her passionately. She held on to his arms as her tongue followed him. While both of them are busy kissing, the doorbell of their suite rang. He slipped off from the bed and took his robe from the floor.

"Get ready, it might be the stylist." He mumbled.

She sighed and dragged her body off from bed while he's taking the door. She took her robe from the sofa and put it on. She went to the bathroom and washed her face and then brushed her teeth. Alessandro seemed to be speaking to a woman. She peeked at the door to the guest area of their suite. She finished brushing her teeth and came out to the area. It seemed like the ladies were flirting with her man.

However, she creased her brows thinking that she didn't own him entirely. They are more like a business partner and sex partner.

"Hey, love." He smiled at her like he never did to anyone. He approached her and gestured to the girls. "Make sure that she will look stunning even in simple make-up. I don't like dark makeup on her. Light with few glitters is enough and don't damage her hair."

"Stop scaring them." She smacked his abdomen. He chuckled and kissed her forehead.

They set up in the guest area while Alessandro stayed in the bedroom. They gently made her sit and started doing things on her hair and face. They complimented her skin and so on and forth. All she could do was smile and thank them. They finished in two hours and finally, Alessandro came out from the bedroom, already wearing his suit.

"Hey, beautiful." He grinned at her.

"Let me put that pretty gown on."

"Do you need help, Madam?" The girls asked.

"No, it's fine."

He followed her and closed the door.

"Are you afraid that they'll find something behind that robe?" He grinned.

"Shut it!" She hissed at him as she rummaged on the drawers for the perfect underwear. He took the aquamarine silk underwear and grinned at her.

"This is sexy enough." She grabbed it as put it on with her robe on.

"Oh, come on! I already saw everything." He smirked.

"Stop playing on me." She frowned at him.

He helped her put on the dress and she even fixed her boobs. He kept his smile plastered on his face as he helped her.

"Okay, let's fix your face and your hair." She finally said.

"There's no need to fix my hair and face. I am handsome and I don't need~~powder…"

She didn't listen as she took her face powder and put a small amount on his face. Then, he took her lip moisturizer and gently caressed it to his kissable lips using her pinky finger. She brushed his hair to the back.

"There,"

"Okay, so you have to fix me since I don't look handsome enough for you?"

She giggled and pulled his nape to kiss his lips. He was about to open his mouth but she quickly pushed him.

"Okay, that's enough."

"I'll just give them their service fee." He said as he left the room and approached the girls. He took out the cheque and gave it to them. "Thank you for your service."

"You are most welcome, Master De Alegre."

He nodded and escorted them outside after they were done.

A separate limousine from his parents and De Novo was enough to pamper his wife. He held her hand as they traveled to the venue. There are cars already trailed to the main entrance as valets are also around helping on opening up. Lots of light flashing, red and blue lights. It's more like a celebrity gala. She felt a little bit nervous. She has never been in such an event. And it looked like an Asian event.

Peeking outside, she noticed a Japanese couple, Chinese family, and even Korean families, and other races.

"What kind of event is this?" She asked him.

"It's a party that gathered all business people around the continent."

"Isn't that~~Mondragon?" She asked.

"Ah~yes. James Mondragon with his father." He said. "We visited the engagement party between Mondragon and Pattinson last month. Remember?"

"Yeah~" She nodded. She didn't show up that much. She heard that Alessandro had a group of friends. And that's Zachary Pattinson. There's also James Mondragon in the group and other boys. She had met them but Alessandro was always busy and possessive toward her that he had to hide her from them.

"And what's the commotion from the other room that night?"

"Well, unfortunately, although the party was secured, there are still people who could trick the Mondragon easily. Mostly, people who are inside the family could make such a trick."

"Hmm," She nodded.

The door opened for them as Alessandro came out first. She gently moved closer to the door and held Alessandro's hand. She gracefully came out of the car and followed him on the red carpet. She didn't bow her head since Alessandro wanted her to walk confidently.

"You okay?" He asked.

"Yeah, my neck just feels heavy wearing a locket. Can I have the key?" She asked to trick him. He laughed and shook his head.

"No. Not a chance."

"Oh, look. The grumpy Prince was smiling and laughing." James Mondragon grinned as he approached them.

"Hey, James," Alessandro faced him with his usual self. Then, they shook hands in a very businesslike manner. Then, James extended his hand to her.

"Then, the CEO of the Golden~~"

"Okay, cut it out," Alessandro said coldly. James chuckled and greeted her warmly with a kiss on the cheek. Alessandro's daggering glare was direct to the heir of the Mondragon. James only laughed and waved at them as he walked away.

"He's so handsome. I just realize that." She said in a little daze.

Alexandro groaned and frowned at her. She giggled and held his arm tightly.

"Are you jealous?" She asked. "He's handsome and I won't lie about that."

"Don't say it aloud." He threatened in a low voice. She giggled and smiled up at him beautifully.

Alessandro couldn't keep his eyes off her. She's beautiful the longer he stares. And it's the same for other men around. It's an important party and if she knew that more bachelor business people go on his way because of his muse. Alessandro wanted to brush them off since they kept on complimenting his wife. He should have put a mark on her chest that she's married. But there's the locket. Damn! He should have put the rings on her ring finger rather than making her find it out herself.

"Damn it." He mumbled.

"Why are you in a bad mood?"

"Did I tell you not to smile at them?" He asked and she looked at him, completely puzzled.

"Ha?"

"Damn, let's go home."

"No! This is your chance to expand your business. Look at your dad!" She pointed to his father who socialized well without his wife clinging.

"Well, that's because dad is an expert at it. He used all of his time for business and didn't even have time for me."

"And your biological mother?"

"Well, she died in an accident. My father became distant even after a year, he remarried to some stranger." Alessandro's eyes darkened as he looked at his step-mother. But then, after it, his father always visits him to the house that he gave to him. It's the house where he had maids and bodyguards. It's the house just across the street where she lives.

He knew that Alessandro didn't like his step-mother. He cursed at him and fought. So, the man didn't push him to do things. Instead, after a tragedy in the school, he let him transfer to a good place. And he promised to have time with him once a week since they are three cities apart. And his father did. He was there every Saturday and Sunday that he even got to meet Keira and they got along well.

"So, you want to speak to others~~"

"Nope." She shook her head.

"Well, you'll eventually do it." He moved his lips to her ear. "You have to socialize with others once you show your face to the media."

"Okay…" She nodded. Her stomach growled and she frowned. He chuckled and took her to the buffet. He took a cocktail first and gave it to her. She sipped on it while he's taking the food that she liked to eat. She wanted to eat light foods so she won't ruin the dress but everything looked famishing.

Alessandro felt something coming. He quickly moved closer to her and grabbed the hand that almost touched her. His murderous toward Jeremy Cha. The man seemed to shudder and stepped away.

"Oh, I'm sorry." He stepped back as Keira turned her head to him. Jeremy Cha was even more surprised at her fierce gaze.

"Are you trying to touch my woman?" Alessandro asked. "Do you want me to chop off your hand?" He sneered. If everyone could see him, they would step away from the dangerous vibe. "Weren't you tired enough that you stole the Golden Age from her? Now, you are showing your filthy face in here?" He sneered.
