"Hmmm..." Before she could do anything Ethan started kissing her.

The sudden kiss frightened her and the file fell out of her hand. Ethan's face was so close to hers that his face looked blurry in her eyes. Her brain stopped working and her body began to tremble. When he felt her trembling body, he said in a husky voice. "Don't be afraid. This is me." As she heard a familiar voice, energy ran through her body and she bit his lower lip very hard made him hissed in pain.

"You!" She gritted her teeth, pushed him using her full strength and stepped back creating more distance between them.

"How dare you?" She shouted.

"Do I need dare to kiss you?"

"You!" She took a long breath, "Get out of my sight or I'll hit you to the death."

"Really?" He raised the corner of his lips along with eyebrows and stepped towards her. Seeing him coming towards her blush formed on her pale cheeks and she quickly turned. Her shyness brought a wide smile on his lips and he hugged her from behind. "I will try to come home early today." He put a sweet kiss on her neck and whispered in her ear. "I have to go now, my dear wife. Take care of yourself and our little princess. I love you." With that before she could say anything, Ethan left.

After he left, she looked at the closed door of her office and muttered. "I Love you to my dear husband." Moving her fingertips on her wet lips, remembering Ethan kiss she smiled from the bottom of her heart.

.....

Alex's left shoulder was leaning against the wall. He had one hand in his pocket and with the other, he was holding Avery close to his chest. Ever since Avery had returned from India, he had never missed a chance to get close to her or express his love for her. But whenever he was hugging or kissing her, he always kept in mind that they should not be seen by anyone who would create a problem for them. Also this way no one will know about their relationship. Because this was not the right time for them to reveal their relationship.

In fact, he was more concerned about her safety than his reputation.

He looked down as she began to rub her head against his chest like a little kitten. "What happened?" He said pulling the other hand out of his pocket and placing it on her head.

"Why didn't Ethan brother come yet?" She poked her head out of his chest and blinked her eyelashes.

"Ethan seems to have something important to do with the doctor."

"Hmph!" she hummed and again in his chest, she buried herself to steal his warmth. She wrapped her arms around his strong body under his coat.

Due to lack of cold tolerance, she was trying her best to hide herself in his suit jacket. When Alex noticed all her little effort, he immediately took off his suit jacket and put it on her shoulder. He removed her small hand on his back and brought it to the front.

He took her hand in his and began to rub it. When he felt her hands slightly warmed, he took the suit jacket over her shoulder and put it on her. He buttoned his suit jacket and pulled her back to him. "Do you still feel cold my sweet love?"

"No!" She shook her head and kept feeling his heartbeat in the same position in his arms. His jacket was too big for her small frame which was easily reaching up to her knees. just as she closed her eyes she heard.

"Boss shall we go."

Ethan was standing disciplined in front of them as she peered out her head.

"No!" Alex answered coldly without looking at him.

"But why?"

The single word that Alex said sternly was enough to bring sweat on Ethan's heads. 'God what happened to this devil king all of a sudden. His temperature went up so much.' Ethan said in his breath and his body began to tremble. The sudden change in Alex also raised questions in Avery's head.

She opened her mouth to ask what had happened, and just she was about to ask him, Alex stretched his hand in front of Ethan and asked in a strong voice. "Car key." Ethan quickly put the key in his hand.

"You are now on leave."

"But why?"

"I'm giving you a personal leave but I don't think you want it." This time Alex looked at him with a cold stare.

"No No... It's not like that." Ethan uttered. He became very happy but he did not show his full happiness in front of Alex. He thought there was no guarantee that the Devil King would change his mind.

Alex took Avery with him and left. They both reached the VIP parking lot. Alex always used to open the car door for her but seeing him not did that this time, she went to open the passenger seat door on her own. Just she was about to open the door, the ground beneath her feet suddenly seemed to disappear, and in the next moment, she was in Alex's arms.

"What?" She looked at him with a question mark.

He smiled without saying anything and took her by was the driver side. He opened the car door and sat her on his lap after sitting comfortably on the driver seat. Seeing a beautiful smile on his lips she understood his feelings. Saying nothing she started to feel his closeness.

She grabbed the bag from her back and placed it on the passenger seat and sat on his lap in such a way that she could look straight at the road. Her cuteness made him think that a kid was sitting on his lap instead of his wife who was very anxious about the world outside the car.

He grabbed her shoulders and leaned her back against his chest. He kissed her on the cheek and whispered in her ear. "How are you feeling now?" Feeling his mint breath on her ears her pale cheeks turned red. She turned her face a little and answered, "Much better than before."

"That's good." He wrapped his left arm around her belly and hit something in the head as he was about to start the car's engine.
