....

It took Sera a few seconds before she realized that it was already morning. And she was already in bed. The last time she remembered, she was still at his office table.

She took a few seconds to shed the sleepiness before she tried to move her legs out of the bed. Weak and spent.

The fact that she couldn't even lift her leg without making it tremble made her curse. She sighed in frustration and stared at the ceiling. She is spent.

Her core felt sore and numbed and her body… is couldn't move without trembling. Last night she thought about the embarrassment that would come the next day. Then she decided to let her need a win and stop thinking about it. At that time, she chose to live for the moment and forget about everything else. Now, it is inevitable for her to wonder what is going to happen next.

What about Cross?

Sera thought about his four-eyed best friend. It had been days since she heard something from him, and she was getting anxious to hear from him again. Or at least that was before last night.

Right now, Sera felt she just did something irredeemable. She felt guilty. Shame and tears clouded her gaze.

Sadly, the shame came too late.

She felt like she just cheated on him.

"Ahhhh!" she used a pillow to cover her face as she screamed in frustration. Of course, she isn't going to blame anyone but her lustful self. She was just too… thirsty!

"What are you doing?"

Almost immediately, her face reddened. He felt him tugged the pillow, trying to remove it from her face.

"Are you alright?" he added.

She gulped and slowly lowered the pillow. "Exercise."

"Huh?"

"Stress exercise. I do this when I have a lot of deadlines. Just so… you know… I could release my stress." She faked a smiled and sat in a jolt. "What are you doing?" she asked. He was standing next to her side of the bed. He wasn't that close, but close enough for her to breathe in his scent.

"I just took a bath."

"Oh…." She lowered her gaze. "What time is it?"

"Ten in the morning."

"Oh."

"You should get more sleep. Six hours of sleep is enough for an adult but… not an exhausted one."

"Six… oh!" So, they slept at four in the morning!

Great!

Just great!

Her face turned hotter. Her heart started racing against her chest. Until now, Sera didn't really know that she could still any type of embarrassment. She wanted to find a hole to bury herself alive.

"Sleep… your appointment with the old man is not until this afternoon. You still have time to rest."

"It's fine. I'm not that weak." With that, she stood in front of him. She then realized that she was actually wearing nothing but a huge shirt that almost reach her knee.

"Ehem… you alright?"

She lifted her gaze and met his eyes. "Huh?"

"You are so red."

"That — I am." Jesus… she just woke up and she already thinking about removing the shirt in front of him! What was happening to her? Why does it feel like she had some sort of pent-up sexual frustrations that she had been hiding for years?

"I'm brushing my teeth." She strode towards the bathroom and immediately found what she was looking for. But her expression quickly changed when she saw another toothbrush next to hers. She squinted. The brand reminded her of Cross.

It was his favorite.

Shrugging, she quickly brushed her teeth and washed her face. Then she went inside the walk-in closet only to see him choosing a shirt. Quickly turning her gaze to the opposite side, she ignored the shirtless Chris. "Eh?" Sera looked at the dress and clothes in front of her. She couldn't remember… "Hey, Mr. Quinn?"

"I think you should start calling me a husband."

She almost jumped when she realized that he was standing behind her. Sera's body turned stiff as his body heat surrounded her. Memories of last night suddenly appeared inside her head.

"The clothes…"

"If you don't like it, you can sell it, throw it away, or donate. Then we can buy new ones."

"No, I mean… "She turned towards him and realized that they are actually closer than she originally thought. "I mean don't buy things for me without my permission." She got it, he was rich. But buying stuff that she doesn't need is nothing but a waste of money.

"I didn't buy this. These are designer clothes that some designers would send the company for some artists to wear. These are the smaller sizes and the brand-new ones that they sent. I thought it's good to let them send it here."

"Designer clothes?" No wonder the fabric looked fantastic. But then again, she should have already expected this.

"It would be a waste to let them send it to other people, no?"

She nodded at that. "Thank you. I will pay you— "

"With your body?"

Her breath hitched when he narrowed the space between them. She immediately felt her blood hummed, the familiar longing squeezing inside her. She tried to maintain the little bit of reasoning she had left.

Obviously, it vanished when he suddenly lifted her up and pushed her against the glass wall. Out of instinct, her legs wrapped around his waist. The kiss that followed spoke of things that were left unsaid. Their lips fused, savoring each other's hot flavor of desire.

He was quick to pull the shirt out of her, his hand immediately kneaded her bosom. Then he clumsily opened his belt, removing his pants that were the only thing stopping him from claiming what was his.

The reason that she held earlier slowly stumbled into oblivion as he moved the small clothed that covered her sex. "I have a meeting in five minutes."

She widened her eyes, unable to react to his words. Before she knew it, he already penetrated her. The slow, repetitive movement that followed made her quiver with delight. Their bodies radiated with heat and lust. Need and want intertwining in the air.

Sera closed her eyes as she gave herself up to her desire, to his magic. Lost in the beauty of the moment, she clung to him as if her life depended on it. Soon, the slow rhythm turned faster and rough. She heard him curse before both of them exploded with delight.

Ripples of pleasure wracked their brains.

When her thoughts came back into the earth, he was already putting his pants back on. Then he leaned over and kissed her forehead. "I'll see you at lunch? And you really should start calling me husband." He grabbed a shirt with the color of her eyes and winked at her before leaving.
