She thought he was Furious. "I'm sorry. I didn't tell you. But it was important. Then---there is a te--test and I for---forgot about it, also Emily was unaware. So-so we decided to bu---bunk first lecture an--and overlook...."

"There is no need of sorry. Don't be afraid, I just asked normally. All the best for your test and meet me in the lunch break." Alex interrupted her.

After saying this, he left. He wanted to hug her but if anyone had seen them in each other's arms, Avery's image would have been tarnished which he could not bear.

Two minutes later, Lucas showed up in the class. He took all the students to the exam hall.

The university had large halls mainly for exams with a single seating arrangement.

Soon he started the test and after the time up he collected the answer sheets and asked the students to go back.

When all the students were going back into the classroom, David ran over to Avery and Emily.

"Hey, how was the test? Horrible." He was very excited when he asked.

"Horrible", Avery and Emily answered together which made David laugh.

" I couldn't even answer all questions and yes it was different that I didn't know the answer to all questions. I could only write what I read for an hour." Emily replied, scratching her neck.

"Me too," Avery said joining her.

" But my was best," David said joyfully as they stepped into the classroom.

As Alex said Avery went to Alex's office during the lunch break after finishing another lecture. Alex was talking to someone on the phone when she walked in without knocking on the door. He wasn't in good mood. But when he saw her, he unknowingly put a smile on his lips and immediately cut off the call.

"Is everything alright?" She asked as she walked to his desk. She was about to sit on the chair opposite him, "Not there, Love. Come here." He interrupted her and called her closer.

She went forward and stood next to him. Placing his hands on the front desk, he applied force of his body backwards and his majestic leather chair on which he was sitting like a king was pushed back and then he turned to her.

"Yes, love. Everything is all right. You don't need to worry about anything." He grabbed her hand and held her close. Breaking eye contact with her, he looked at her belly and immediately grabbed the edge of her shirt and was about to lift it upwards.

Her breath stopped, she looked down. "What are you doing?" She panicked.

"Shh...." He put a finger on his lips Indicating her to keep quiet.

"I'm just examining your bruises. So relax my little cupcake." Tightening his grip on the edge of her shirt he pulled it upward.

"Did you apply the gel I gave you?" He asked without taking his eyes off her bruises which were now a little faint than before.

"Yup,"

"Hmm." He just hummed and grabbed another cooling cream from the drawer of his office desk.

He took a small amount of cream on his finger and extended his hand to apply it to her stomach. The tip of his finger was about to touch her belly but he abruptly stopped his action. Something flashed in his head and he smiled. He got up from the chair and grabbed her hand.

"Come with me.'

Grabbing her hand he interlocked his finger with hers. He led her to her closed door. Opening the door he took her into the bedroom. After taking the bag over her shoulder, he approached the bed, laid her on it, and set himself on the edge.

"This is a very small task. You could have done it outside without taking me here or I could have done it myself."

"Really." He pulled his one eyebrow upward, holding a smirk on his beautiful lips.

She narrowed her eyes. She wanted to whip out the smirk plastered on his face. "You are very mean Alex. Don't try to be very smart because l know the reason behind this."

He started applying gel on her stomach. "If you know the reason, I would be very pleased if you could tell me. I want to hear it from your mouth."

"I will not tell you anything." She turned her head to another side and she puffed her cheeks.

When his task was finished, he pulled down her shirt and leaned on her, placing his arms on either side of her.

"Love, Tell me." He sniffed his nose into her crook. "Tell me, my little darling." He again whispered near her ear and licked her earlobe. Her eyes widened and before he could do anything else she turned her face and tried to push him by placing both hands on his shoulders. But he was a big monster who didn't move an inch because of her force.

He immediately grabbed her delicate wrist in one hand and pinned it over her head. He grabbed her chin with his other hand and held her face in place. "I've told you before that I'm limitless for your other tantrums but I am very limited for this pull and push game. Don't try to push me into a dream. I can tolerate anything but I can't stand your push. I want you to trust me completely. I hope you understand and you will not make such a mistake again. Do you?"

His voice was so furious and serious that she nodded automatically.

"Words, my dear words."

"Yes," He let go of her hand and sat up straight, taking her hand in his, "Tell me how was your test." He diverted the subject to lighten the atmosphere.

"It wasn't good. I didn't know there was a test today."

"It was just a class test, my love." He rubbed her cheek with his thumb.

"But Lucas Sir is going to add the mark of this test to the internal marks of the final." Alex frowned when he heard what she said a little sadly.

"Should I talk to Lucas about this?" It was the last thing on the earth Alex wanted to do. But he was willing to do anything for Avery.

"No, I don't want any type of favour. I will do my best in the final exam."

" I know!" Hearing her answer, his eyes lit up and his chest swelled with pride. "This is the answer I expected from you and I know you will definitely do great."

"My only wish is that my scholarship should not be cancelled."

She said before biting her lip nervously.

"You don't have to worry about small things like scholarships if this whole university is yours."

"Don't be ridiculous Alex. This is not my university. This is your."

"And who am I to you?"

"My Husband." She said a little shyly.

"So indirectly everything that is mine is yours. You have authority over everything I have." He removed the strands of her hair from her face. "No more discussion Now get up and have lunch."

"You are going to eat with me." She not asked but ordered him.

"I'm not hungry right now and I have to check some files for the post-break meeting."

"But I don't want to eat alone. Eat with me." After sitting on bed she crossed her hands over her chest. "And if you don't want to eat from lunch box, I'll make something for you."

"Hey, no need." Said Curtly.

"But..."

"Okay, I will eat with you. But I don't think a lunch box is enough for both of us." He said getting up from the bed and she immediately threw her body on him.

She wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed his cheek. "You are the best Alex. And don't think about the lunch box because if we feel hungry, we'll eat something again." After finishing this she ran to the washroom to wash her hands like energy boll.

Alex was still stiff on his spot. It took him a whole minute to process what just happened. It was no less than a shock that Avery kissed him on the cheek.

He came out of his thoughts when Avery asked him to wash his hands after she came back.

The two of them had their lunch. Alex fed Avery more and he ate less.

After lunch, Avery went to the door to go back, but Alex grabbed her by the wrist and stopped her.

"Where are you going?"
