'In a short span of time, love blossomed in who knows where and when it starts. It wasn't something that everyone could assume and predect. Can't be force nor can be thought by time. It is a mystery of one's feeling that may sprout in a matter of all circumstances. It is either for the person you bump into or the person next to you. Just like a free soul, it can only reside of who was fated on it.'
Xiu Yen was recalling what her father 'Xiu Bai' said when he was in a brink of his life while saving her. Her father was a great person and has loved her so much that even his life doesn't matter just to saved her. But no matter how great her father Xiu Bai was, he has his own limits. And bullets are much faster than a person's flexibility. Xiu Yen didn't know if it really was the case or due to his old age that her father was killed by that certain person.
'Papa, is this what you mean back then? Am I really in love with this stranger? I even gave it to him without much certainty. Without retaliation and disgust just like what I had felt towards that evil person who caused your death. It's all my own accord and I felt a strange and undescribable feeling inside my chest. I am happy but somewhat scared about it. I felt that I longed for him a long time ago and I feared to part with him.'
Xiu Yen was leaning on the broad chest of Zeki while her thoughts wondered somewhere else. They were both naked but strangely, she didn't feel any awkwardness but instead overwhelmed with comfort.
The man's warm and solid muscles touching in her soft skin makes her entangled with the man not wanting to part with him. She seems bewitched by the man's desruptible charm, unable to escape in the trance.
Zeki thought that it is not good to be soak with water for a very long time specially to his woman that has a delicate skin so he got up while Xiu Yen was on his arms like a bride. Xiu Yen felt shy when they got out from the water with their both naked bodies. She burrowed her head in the man's neck afraid to have an eye to eye contact with him.
Zeki put Xiu Yen down on the bed to sit. He wore a bathrobe and get a clean towel. He wrapped Xiu Yen's body with the clean white towel and then dry her hair with the blower.
Xiu Yen didn't know how to react so she let him do what he want. Right as Zeki was done, the door bell rang. Zeki knew that it was Gao Tao cause no other people know his place except his assistant.
"Wait me here. I'll be back right away." Zeki said gently and kissed her in the forehead.
"hhmm" Xiu Yen nodded without looking up.
Zeki head down stairs to open the door. The moment Gao Tao caught sight of his boss, he started rambling his mouth in panic.
"Good afternoon boss. Please spare me for being delayed. I got into a minor accident while I was on my way here and the police wanted me to report at their station for interrogation. So I have no choice but to comply and that caused me to be late." Gao Tao blurted in one breath while bowing his head waiting for his punishment. But to his surprise, he got nothing but Zeki's calm and lazy tone.
"Where's the thing I've asked you to buy?"
"Uh... here boss." Gao Tao sighed in relief while handing the bags. He didn't know who's going to wear the dress his boss ordered him so he didn't know what the woman's preferences. He just bought one of each famous fashion houses brand like Armani, Louis Vuitton, Hermes, Prada and Gucci.
"hmm..." Zeki nodded and get the bags from Gao Tao's hand.
"Then, I'll be heading back now boss." Gao Tao was about to turn his back when Zeki stop him.
"Wait."
"What is it boss? Do you need anything?" Gao Tao said while halting his track.
"Head to the finance office and get your bonus." Zeki said expressionlessly while turning his back and close the door with a bang.
Gao Tao was left speechless with his boss's words. He wasn't sure with what he just hear just now. He haven't even clarify it yet but his boss already left him puzzled. 'Is my boss rewarding me for being late? Or is he giving me a bonus for my last service? Is he firing me now? But it doesn't seemed like it. He seems to be in a good mood just now? Oh god! Is that Demon God hiding a concubine inside his apartment? Uh' then what does it has to do with my bonus? Haiiyst... being a demon God's assistant is really frustrating.'
Poor Gao Tao, but his presumptions was somewhat right but was actually wrong. Zeki was rewarding him for being late and not disrupting their moments with his Queen not into a mere concubine. It's just that, he will be tortured by Zeki's complicated way of displaying gratitude.
Inside the room, Zeki just came back and brought the bags of luxury. Zeki put down the bags on the bedside and sat beside Xiu Yen.
"What's this?" Xiu Yen ask with a furrowed brows.
"That's for you to wear." Zeki said while wrapping his arms around her waist.
"Uh... then, I'm going to change now." Xiu Yen said attempting to got up but Zeki tightened his hold from her waist.
"You don't have to. It's just the two of us, so you can wear that later if ever we're going out." Zeki said seductively while licking Xiu Yen's neck.
"W..What? You mean you want me naked all day?" Xiu Yen said while shoving Zeki away. He blushed by what he did but she has to stop his advances before another bed riot will happened.
"hmm" Zeki nodded and raised his brows while his lips arc upwards forming a sly smile.
"No way!" Xiu Yen's brows twitch with Zeki's shamelessness.
"What's wrong honey? I've seen it already." Zeki sad huskily while circling back his arms around Xiu Yen's waist.
