Andel opened his office door for her and he let her in. Then he turned back from him yet Ellen still stood near the door looking down her shoes like she's been wronged. Tears started streaming down her cheek and she's hurt with his actions. He's silent but still, it's making her feel like it's all her fault.

But It's all her fault for visiting him when he told her not to ever visit him in his office. She wiped her tears quickly and she sniffled and wiped her nose so he wouldn't see it. Andel kept his back on her and put his hands on his waist as he exhaled.

​​

"What are you doing here?" He asked coldly that send shivers on her spine. She dropped her things and hugged him from behind and she wept.

"I'm sorry. Don't be angry. Okay?" She sounded like a child but she's always a child to him though he looked at her as a woman.

It calmed him down and he slowly removed her arms from him and he turned to him. He scooped her face and wiped her tears.

"Ellen, how many times have I told you not to come here?" He asked softly.

"I just missed you. And I even cooked your lunch." Her eyes are cloudy yet she still looked so adorable and beautiful.

He sighed and walked passed her and picked her purse, the bag, and the files. He put it on the coffee table of his office. He strode to her, took his handkerchief and wiped her tears.

"Don't do this again."

"Okay." She nodded and hugged him again.

Andel hugged her back and kissed her top head. He slowly pushed her and kissed her mouth hungrily. She stepped back and he gently pinned her on the wall, lifting her and kissing her deeper. She moaned pulled his hair. They kissed for more than three minutes and just kissing each other.

He stopped and let her catch her breath and then he pulled her gently to the sofa. She reached a tissue from her purse and wiped the lip gloss stains on him. She then fixed his hair.

"What did you prepare?" He asked looking at the lunch bag. She took it and put the food on the coffee table together with the fresh juice that she made with love.

"It's all your favorite and it's healthy." She smiled and took the still hot fried rice with a heart-shaped sunny-side-up fried egg on top of the fried rice.

"I'm famished." He let her feed him since she wanted to and to make her feel better from the coldness he gave to her a while ago.

The food was delicious and she made it with love. Andel caressed her hair and feed her as well. His boss called and told him that his wife made lunch for both of them. Andel looked at the food that Ellen made, it's almost finished.

"Boss thank you for the offer but I already had my lunch."

"Okay. Who is your visitor by the way?"

"It's Pattinson. Your wife asked me to help and invest as well."

"Hmm," Gabriel muttered something to his wife who is probably sitting on his lap. "You asked my Secretary about him investing in Pattinson restaurant?"

"Yeah." Sabrina is cool and good at pretending and acting. "Pattinson is already a family and Zachary Pattinson's sister is running the restaurant. The restaurant is great and lots of people are visiting it every day. It's a good investment."

"Okay," Gabriel muttered. "Oliver, I think my wife is good at matched making. Is she matching you up with a Pattinson Princess?"

Andel/Oliver nearly choked but he cleared his throat away from the phone and answered his boss.

"I think Madam is good at everything."

"Yeah, she is. Later." Gabriel hung up and Andel looked at Ellen scooping her chin.

"Little girl, you are a bad one." He kissed her lips.

"Andel," she put away the food and hugged him. "Make love to me. It's Friday and we can make love later. Right?"

Andel patted her head.

"I promised not to visit you anymore. Just promised me tonight." She looked up at him with puppy eyes. "Please?"

Andel smiled at her. It's time to give it to her. He caressed her hair and smiled back at her.

"Okay."

She nearly clapped her hand. She kissed his lips and gave him the juice.

"I made extra for your snack later."

He patted her head, scooped her face and caressed her cheek with his thumb. This woman, the little girl of his childhood is grown up. She wasn't afraid to show how much she loved him. She wasn't afraid of the commitment waiting for them. No matter what, Andel would take care of her. He will only marry her and he promised to himself that this woman only belongs to her.

"I love you, so much my Ellen." He kissed the spot between her brows. "I'm sorry that I can't be the lover that would show you to everyone and to mark you. I just wanted to protect you and I don't want to show you to everyone. Because you are mine."

Ellen is speechless from his declaration. She reached his face and kissed his nose.

"I love you too, Andel. You don't know how much my heart would ache whenever you are away from me. I love you so much that it hurts being away from you even for a second."

Andel is terrified and at the same time happy that she's there. He already found the woman he loved. Ellen is the woman that he would cherish, his soulmate and his oasis in the desert.

"I'm going." Ellen stood and packed it all up. She put the juice on the fridge and his snack. "Just heat it. I have to get ready for later." She winked at him. He giggled and kissed her cheek.

"I'll walk you out and make sure that you

Andromeda opened the door and she heard a low cry and struggling. It's from the half-open door and she opened it and saw him, between the woman's legs with ripped clothes. He's pointing the gun on her as he trusted on her his pants is open and pounding on her hard.

She stood there, stunned and she met the woman's eyes. Her heart sank, seeing Ellen getting raped by the man with the gun on her head.

"I am going to torture you. It's your brother's fault. And your pain will be his pain."

"Please…" She muffled some cries. "Andel…" she cries in agony.

Andromeda's heart started shattering seeing Ellen struggling. It's her fault. Why did she let it happen?

"No!" Andromeda tried to reach Ellen but it's getting away and away. "Ellen!" She screamed.

She sat up as she gasped some air. Her cheeks are wet from her tears and her heart is pounding and felt so broken. She immediately called Fox who answered after a few rings.

"Where are you?"

"I'm at the penthouse."

"Where's Ellen?"

"She's with Andel. She said that she's going to visit him, so I dropped her off."

Andromeda exhaled and hold her chest.

"I dreamed about Ellen, getting raped by that bastard. I'll call Andel." She hung up and called Andel.

In a few rings, Andel answered.

"Is Ellen still with you?" She asked rapidly.

"She already left just thirty minutes ago. Why?"

"Is she going to her penthouse?" She asked.

"I guess. Why?"

"She's in danger." She hung up and call Fox. "Go to her Penthouse now. She's in danger."

"The cameras have been tampered. I'm running." Fox hung up.

Andromeda didn't have time to change her clothes. She put her running shoes and stormed outside.

"Call a car now." She demanded and they followed her as she ran to the elevator that immediately opened as his bodyguards are contacting the driver.

Her heart is pounding. Ellen is in danger.
