The double door opened. It's her first time going to the President's office. It's wide and everything is minimal yet classy. A beautiful woman, maybe at the age of forty is sitting on the sofa. She knew her well as Sabrina Mondragon-Alvarez-Lawson. She's around forty but she is still stunningly beautiful.

There's also the twins, Aria and Asher. She met them at dinner and the intimidating president of the Lawson Company.

"Camila,

" Gabriel stood and looked up at her.

"Now, I know why Rhys would be a delivery man during the day.

" He said.

"Rhys is so fond of you.

"

"I—Can I ask if Rhys is okay?

"

"Yes,

" Athena nodded.

"For now.

" Aria shrugged.

"We are trying hard to protect Rhys.

"

"What's going?

" She still didn't understand.

"You are under our protection 24-7,

" Sabrina said and she sipped on her tea.

"I don't understand.

" She mumbled.

"Sit down.

" Athena pulled her to the sofa.

"Well, Camila. You are part of the family. Lawson Family and Mondragon, Smith and William's…

" Gabriel said.

"Anyway, Rhys is a Mondragon and my wife's nephew. Since you are dating him and he's contacting you, we decided to protect you.

"

"I don't understand.

" She didn't correct that she's dating Rhys. Since it looks like she's dating him because they do lots of things that normal friends don't do.

"What did Rhys tell you exactly?

" Aria asked.

"He said that he's sorry and that I have to sleep at his parent's house.

"

"Well, that's already set since you had a sleepover at Smith's,

" Sabrina said.

"After work, pack your things. You need to stay at their house for a few days until everything is clear.

"

"It sounds dangerous,

" Camila said.

"It's indeed dangerous, gorgeous.

" Asher winked at her. She looked at Athena.

"Last time, the delivery guy, about that…

"

"That one is a traitor,

" Athena said. She sighed. She got close to the delivery guy.

"I'm just lucky that he didn't poison on the food.

" Camila chuckled bitterly.

"We'll know if he would.

" Athena smiled to comfort her.

"I'll pick you up later after six.

" She winked.

Kale kissed her forehead and he gently slipped off from her hug. He needed to piss. He covered the duvet for her and kissed her beautiful nose. He ran to the bathroom and did his business. He flushed the toilet and turned to the silk. While washing his hands, he stared at the mirror. He stopped and then, he washed his face and used her mouthwash. He will kiss that girl there and make love to her before he leaves. He approached the bed and reached for the bottle of water that she drank from last night. He finished it.

He gently pushed the duvet and he showered her with kisses. It woke her up and he attacked her mouth with his.

"Hmm,

"

"Tina, I'm going down there.

"

"What?

" She asked as she rubbed her eyes.

He went between her and ate her up. She chuckled and looked down at him. He smiled at her and made her come with his mouth. Then, he climbed up to her and kissed her lips.

"Good morning.

"

She pressed her lips and wrapped her arms around his nape. He wrapped his arms around her back to pull her.

"I don't have a condom with me. So, I'll just withdraw.

"

She nodded at him.

"But don't worry, I bought a lot of condoms that will be delivered later.

" He kissed her forehead.

He left after he cleaned up his mess. Tina hugged the pillow that she used and she smiled. Did Kale suddenly become sweet? She sighed. Still, she doesn't want to get her hopes high. She had cried a lot last night. She's jealous of Cathy. She heard that Kale and she are very close even though they aren't together. So, she thought that maybe they are still having sex. Just like what she and Kale are doing.

What if she's Cathy's temporary replacement while Cathy is away? If they are together, then Cathy might be letting Kale sleep with another woman. Like an open relationship. She sighed depressingly and stared at the time.

Her phone chimes. She reached it and answered Kale's call.

"You finally answer!

"

"What?

"

"Well, I was calling you yesterday. Get your lazy ass and work out. You need energy for later.

"

"I'm lazy.

" She mumbled.

"I'll be there in a minute after Kelsie cooked for breakfast.

"

She giggled.

"You keep stealing food from them.

"

"It's fine. Kelsie deliberately cooks a lot of breakfast. She stuffed us with lots of foods.

"

"I will bathe.

"

"Drink warm water first. Then, you can bathe.

"

"Okay.

"

"I'll be there. I'll see you shortly, baby.

"

"See you.

" She mumbled.

She got up, stretched her arms, and put her panties on. Then, she reached for her silk robe, walked to the door as she put it on. She went downstairs and her step-mother smiled at her.

"How's the night?

" She asked.

"It's fine.

" She said.

"Now, you are smiling,

" Margarita said.

"I prepared your tea.

" She poured a teapot on the teacup gracefully.

"Thank you.

" She reached it and sipped on it. She sighed.

"Kale is cold yesterday… now, become caring.

"

"Why did he become cold?

" She asked.

"Well, it's the past.

" She mumbled.

"The past shouldn't getaway in the present and future. Work your ass off at the gym! You need to always look good.

"

She grinned at her step-mom. She doesn't glam herself unless she has a meeting or something.

"I wasn't always looking beautiful.

"

"I was right that I sent you to give that pie to them.

" She said.

"That's an awful pie.

"

"Then, I should go over to our neighbor and ask Kelsie how to keep her handsome husband close and fit.

" She purred like a cat. She chuckled and sipped on her tea.

"Hi everyone!

" Kale greeted. She nearly spits the tea and frowned at him.

"Why are you so fast? I haven't bathed yet!

"

"Well, It's already seven, and Kelsie already prepared breakfast at that time.

"

He approached her and kissed her temple as he put the casserole on the marble counter.

"This soup is good. Lady Mar, you need to eat that.

"

"Oh, that's so sweet, Kale.

"

"Lady Mar?

" She frowned and looked at her step-mom. Margarita only winked.

"Finish your tea. I'll bathe.

" Kale stated.

"Good thing that I bring my clothes.

"

She finished her tea and they ate the soup. Then, he carried her upstairs like a bride.

They did it in the shower in a standing position. In that position, Kale let her wrap her arms around him and kissed him like they were making love. Not just the word sex that only two bodies are thrusting. But there's love or affection between two bodies working with each other.

"Kale,

"

"Hmm?

"

"I don't want to be clingy towards you. I don't want you to feel suffocated. But this is just sex, right?

" She asked.

"You told me that all I can want is 'it' which is 'sex'.

"

"Whatever you want to say…

" He reached her chin and kissed her forehead.

"I want you.

" He said softly.

"But,

" She wrapped her arms around his waist while he's busy wringing her hair on the microfiber towel.

"You aren't in a relationship, right? I don't want to ruin someone else's relationship.

"

"No.

" He shook his head.

"I will have my day off tomorrow. We can go anywhere.

" She suggested.

"That will do. Kelsie suggested that she's going to teach your mom and your maid how to prepare dishes that you wanted to eat. I suggested that we stay there.

"

She pouted.

"I'm sorry. I can't leave Kelsie alone in the house.

"

"Why?

" She creased her brows.

"It's just, I have to protect her.

" He pushed away a few damp strands of hair that is coming in her eyes.

"Fine with me. Are we going to do it all day?

" She smirked at him.

"Yes.

"

"Teach me how to please you, Kale.

"

"Like?

"

"I didn't get to give you the blow—you know… since you stop me and attack me.

"

Kale chuckled.

"I want to explode it inside you more, Tina.

"

"But that will make me pregnant.

"

"Can't you drink a pill?

"

"I am not good at medicines.

"

"Then, we'll stick with condoms or withdrawal. I'll be careful.

"

She shoved her face to his chest and he took the hairbrush as run it to her hair.

Finally, Christina felt warm. He's warm. Is her heart picking the broken pieces to fix it again for Kale? Whatever it was, she just wants to cuddle with him.

"Is this okay with you?

" She suddenly asked, remembering the word 'clingy'.

"Yeah.

" He became busy brushing her hair and she became busy admiring him as she looked up at his face while she's squeezing his muscled tight butt. She looked down at his aching one between them and she smiled.

"Hi there.

" She said to his lower part. Kale laughed and kissed her lips.

"You are tempting me.

"

Kale became romantic, funny, and warm to her this morning. She just wished that it wouldn't end. She just wished that he won't get cold to her like last night that even though they are making love, she's crying. She doesn't want to feel that torturous pain.
