Freya arrived at Madagascar. She's been overthinking for hours and having a lot of visions about Madagascar and Fin. She's worried as hell. She then checked in a cheap hotel and stayed in bed for hours with her eyes closed.

She got startled from her dream that woke her up and the first thing she heard was her phone ringing. She frowned and stared at Steven's international number. How did he even get her number? She didn't answer but then the ring stopped and then he called again. She sighed and answered it.

"Freya.

" His voice is deep and sexy. She just found it sexy and just calling her name send shivers through her spine.

"Come back.

"

"I—I need to do something.

" She muttered.

"Why do you have to leave like that? Why didn't you say a word to me? Maybe telling me that 'Babe, I need to go out for an adventure? Wanna come?' Those words are very simple. How can it be so hard for you to say it?

"

"I am not used to saying goodbye. I don't tell a soul where I go.

" She started paddling her feet from the bed and she sighed.

"Are you going to come back?

"

"I don't know.

"

"Where are you?

" He asked again. She was silent.

"Please, tell me. I wanted to know.

"

"Steven, why do you have to worry? Why do you have to care?

"

"Because…

" he paused for a few seconds.

"I want to see you now.

"

"Just, leave me alone, okay?

" She muttered. He hung up and that's it. That's the end of the conversation. She stared at the phone for a long time and her thumb nearly tapped his number. She wanted to hear his voice, but she restrained herself from calling him.

She sighed, her heart is throbbing and then she punched the call button. He answered after a few rings.

"Babe?

"

"I will come back. I just—I just need to sort this all out.

"

"Then, where are you?

"

"I'm in the jungle and it's very classified. But I'll come back to the country.

"

"Great.

" He hung up and then there's a video call. She answered it and he is topless sitting on his very own jacuzzi.

"Why is it dark there?

" he furrowed and try to look at her. She crawled to the side table and turned on the lamp. She leaned on the headboard and looked at him.

She roamed her eyes to his beautiful body and then she looked away.

"Babe takes it all off. I want to see you.

"

She rolled her eyes and just looked at him.

"Come on, please.

"

"I am tired.

" She said softly. She's drained. Mentally. Her mind is always swirling with visions and she's hating it.

"If I were there, I would relieve it.

" He kissed the camera to give it to her.

She adjusted herself so she could lay down sideways and then looked at him more.

Steven is relaxing in the jacuzzi as he watched her sleep. He knew how to detect her. She's in Madagascar at that time. He kissed his phone and hung up. He stood and reached his towel, wrapping it around his naked body. Then he put his clothes on and stared at the red beep where she's located. Madagascar.

"I will be there, Freya.

" He murmured and then he reached his backpack and packed a few things.

He was already in the foyer when the door opened, and Stanley frowned at him.

"Where are you going?

" he asked.

"I—I am going to—

" he thought about Freya.

"You aren't leaving until we found those people who almost killed Natalie.

"

"I need to find my Freya.

"

"She left.

" He said frankly.

"Why do you have to chase her?

"

"Well, you don't understand.

" He walked past him.

"You are in love with her,

" Stanley said that made him stop. Stanley chuckled.

"I never thought that you would be crazy to someone at that age of yours.

"

Steven turned to him and scoffed.

"Are you mocking me?

"

Stanley laughed and pulled him back inside.

"You can't go there.

"

"Why?

" He asked.

"Not in Madagascar.

"

Steven stopped and stared at him.

"How do you know?

"

Stanley locked the door and pushed his twin brother to the sofa.

"Andromeda called me. She said that you'll probably chase Freya. It's a bad thing. It's dangerous. You might ruin the mission.

" Stanley took his bag and then locked the door.

"What are you doing?

" Steven asked puzzled from Stanley's action.

Stanley kneels in front of his brother and dramatically took his hands.

"My stupid brother. It is dangerous to go there.

" He said it again that made him more quizzical.

"We are heirs of the Dragon Empire. We are needed here—if I need to tie you up, I would. It's the Dragon Heiress's command. I can't let you out of the country.

"

"You are being dramatic. I am not going to die or anything.

" He said and nearly punched Stanley.

"You are.

" He said those words in a very serious way.

"Andy said. She saw it with this—visions…

"

Steven stopped and then his phone started ringing. He answered it and smiled.

"Hey, babe.

"

"I know you tracked me. Do not come here. If you did, you will never see me again.

" Freya threatened him.

His heart crumpled. He badly wanted to see her. It's hurting him. But if he goes there—he will die? This is stupid. He will not die, and he will make sure of that.

"Babe… please.

"

"I am leaving now from where you track me. I will make sure that you will never see me again once you leave the country.

"

"I won't leave. I'm sorry. I am going to stay here as you said. I'll wait for you.

"

"Good.

" She hung up and Steven threw his bag away. He lay flat on the sofa and covered his forearm over his eyes.

Stanley sighed and patted him.

"Don't worry, I'll stay with you.

"

"Let's have a drink.

" He finally stood and his twin brother followed him to the wine cellar.

James glanced at the time and then to his sleeping wife. Since it's the weekend, they stayed at his parent's house and she kept on sleeping and sleeping. She sometimes woke up screaming that startled him and then she would cry for a few minutes. Then she will eat and hug him until she falls asleep.

Maybe she's just catching up. She supposedly is sleepless and overthinking but she feels lethargic after every meal. Is she pregnant? He thought and then reached her stomach. Maybe it's too soon. Then she thought of the date where they got married and damn--it's over a month now. Maybe she's pregnant or something.

"Hey.

" She muttered and hugged him.

"I feel so lazy today.

"

"Hmm. I was thinking of making love to you.

" He muttered.

"I feel tired.

" She pouted at him.

He caressed her hair with his fingers and kissed her forehead.

"Let me sleep then I'll take care of you later.

" She muttered with a yawn. Then she snuggled to his chest.

"You smell good.

" She kissed his naked chest and hugged him tightly.

"You are becoming clingy, Mrs. Mondragon.

"

"I do… I love squeezing you. You're a big teddy bear.

" She murmured and looked up at him. He laughed and hugged her back

Andromeda woke up from a very bad dream. She dreamed about Steven getting into the woods and calling out for Freya's name. Then suddenly, it alarms Kuznetsov's people and a bullet from nowhere shot Steven directly to his forehead.

She was still curious about the shooter. She's sure that it wasn't from the Kuznetsov's people surrounding them with guns. Someone fired the gun.

"You okay?

" Fin asked and gave her a glass of water.

"Thank you.

" She muttered and drank it all.

"It's just a vision. I need to call someone.

" Then she thought about Steven calling Freya's name.

"I think Freya is here in the country.

"

Fin becomes quiet and then he stands straight.

"Let's go?

" Fin asked them. Moira picked up her things and Andy does the same. They've been there for days and there is a big progress on their mission.

Andel needed to leave the jungle and process a few things. She also missed her husband and she wonders how he's doing.

It's already dark and Zach stayed in bed. He ate a little at dinner and now he's watching a few hot scenes that he had with his wife. Since few of it is recorded in their room and he only got access to the recording and the camera, he exported it and watched how she played with him.

He smiled and admire how wild she become while she's on top of him. She's saying dirty words that turned him on more. He has no choice but to use a sex toy that would please him. He was in the middle of something when his phone rang. He ignored it and he continues, murmuring his wife's name and he came shortly panting her name.

"Oh, Andy.

" He exhaled and put away the toys. He will clean it up later.

"My love, come home.

" He muttered. He closed his eyes.
