nGordon stayed in their home for a day and Jerlina found him getting amused by little things. She showed him around the woods behind the manor and they visited Jeremy's and her companies. He was very pleased with it all.

nNot to mention, Jerlina did ask Shaun to design a personalized paperweight for Jonathan. Apparently, his birthday is coming soon and Jerlina asked Gordon's opinion and found a suitable one for Jonathan.

nThe day Gordon was about to leave, Jerlina noticed that he was thinking deeply about something and she wondered what it was. He seemed to be expecting some important call and Jerlina left him be. She knows an assistant would have a lot of work to do and more importantly someone like Gordon will have to take care of a lot of things.

nGordon was waiting for a call. He wanted to investigate some things more as he found the timing of it all very odd. He still hasn't decided what to do with the report shown to him by Jeremy's mom. She is talking for her son but he only cared for his Lady.

nBut unfortunately, both of their happiness depends on each other and it is ground he needs to trod carefully. One slip-up from him will lead to the unhappiness of his Lady. And if the Lady gets unhappy, she will not get pregnant and the Grandsire won't be able to see her child.

nBut that doesn't mean the danger should be allowed to thrive. Without letting the Lady know of the secret, the danger can be eliminated, cautiously.

n

"Yes,

" he answered the call he was long waiting for.

nHearing the information given to him by the one at the other side, his lips curved up.

n

"That's interesting… But are you sure of it?

" his lips curved to an evil smirk as the rims of his reading glasses reflected the sunlight.

n

"No… leave them be. And make sure to draft a fool-proof plan. It should be an accident even if it is investigated seriously by capable people.

"

n

"…

"

n

"Yes, we won't be covering it up. It will be through and through an accident.

"

n

"…

"

n

"Yes, Phantom would be the right man for the job. Hire him.

"

n

"…

"

n

"No, not now. I suspect something interesting will happen very soon…

" he chuckled.

"In a month's time to be precise. Our plan should be for later… If needed… Well… Let's see…

"

nGordon ended the call. Looking at Jerlina tending the garden with a smile, he smiled.

nDon't worry, Lady! You have a lot of people willing to do the dirty work for you! No one who might hurt you will be left to hurt you. All you have to do is stay happy forever!

nKeep on smiling, Milady! For you deserve it.

nA couple of days after Gordon left, Jerlina and Jeremy had their international meetings. They were not meetings per se as Jerlina predicted. They just stayed in the best hotel in the city, wore their business attire for an hour, and wandered around the streets in their casual attire the rest of the day.

nThat is on the first day in every city though. For the rest of the days, the only place Jerlina had the fortune to see was the ceiling above the bed if she is not burying her face in the pillow. That is other than the insanely hot body of her husband.

nShe joked with him about being pudgy that other day but he took it to heart. And he somehow became harder than before. And the beast between his legs; more insatiable.

nWith the sound of pounding flesh filling the room and the fragrance of some spicy incense making her more titillated, she clutched the sheets as she reached her peak once more. At that moment she realized something.

nEgyptian cotton sheets would be better for summer. Silk if it is winter. What are the kind of sheets we have at home? Mmm…

nI should buy some new sheets for our home. And curtains…

n

"What are you thinking?

" Jeremy rumbled in her ear.

n

"You're getting better and better, Joel…

" she said in a husky voice and his lips covered hers.

nHe always likes this kind of acknowledgment. She is not lying anyway. She got distracted a bit looking at the sheets for long.

nShe twisted herself and he ended up on the bed.

n

"Let me do some riding, Joel,

" she smiled and slid his member inside her. With a grunt, he closed his eyes.

nHis chest rose and fell as she rode on him. She loved seeing him getting lost in the pleasures. She trailed her finger through his sternum and ended up on his neck. She wrapped her hands around his neck as her waist raised and fell on his crotch. She thought he'd get distracted but it seemed like he didn't even care.

nShe loved seeing him this vulnerable. Her husband is no coward. He is not a careless person either. But right now, she could kill him if she wanted to. He seemed that vulnerable.

nHe is mesmerized by me…He trusts me that much to lose himself in my embrace…

nThat thought gave her odd confidence and absolute pride. She leaned and kissed him on his lips wrapping her arm around his neck as she reached another peak.

n

"Try this…

" Jeremy passed her a dish.

"How are you liking the food?

" he asked.

nThere was warm lighting in the room and his skin glowed. The temperature in the room was warm and with no one else in there, they didn't find the need to get dressed for dinner.

nHis bare skin, combined with his well-defined sinews, and that mesmerizing voice of his… Jerlina could only smile.

nAll mine!

nJerlina shrugged.

"I like your food better.

" She meant it.

nShe is not very much of a foodie. She just loved eating the same boring food. She cooks but only because she needs to eat. She is not very interested in cooking either. Jeremy's cooking is on another level. She just loved it.

n

"You know what you want, right?

" he placed his hand on her exposed shoulder and she saw the misty layer over his sapphire orbs.

nLust!

nShe dropped the cutlery and straddled to sit on his lap. Not minding if he is hungry or not, she nibbled on his lips. She was hungry – for him. Maybe he didn't care much about the food, he carried her to bed.

n

"People are very excited for Valentine's day…

" he said fixing her hair. After their hot session of love-making, she was glistening and more appealing.

n

"All the shops have red roses and chocolates…

" he wanted to speak more but he ended up kissing her more. She looked bewitching. More than at home, doing it at another place does have more excitement factor attached to it.

n

"Mmm?

" Jerlina rested on his chest. His heart was still pounding and his manly scent was overpowering.

"What are our plans?

" she asked.

nShe already got the gifts and she was very excited to know how they are going to celebrate it.

n

"Sky diving,

" he said and Jerlina had a heart attack.
