In a mall a few meters from Gold park arena, a lady dressed in a fluffy black dress was seen walking outside confidently with no shred of panic. It was Jean who had taken off the men's disguise, what she could not understand were the stomach cramps she was feeling.
She has never had cramps during her menstrual period and it normally lasted for 12 hours only thanks to her physical fitness.
But at this moment Jean could feel as if someone was playing tug of war with a barbed wire in her stomach. It was unbearable, a layer of sweat could be seen forming on her forehead and her lips were trembling slightly.
If anyone observed closely, they would notice that her eyes were eyes were a little red but were extremely calm, as if she had nothing to do with the teeth chattering, jaw clenching and sweaty face.
She made her way out steadily without even looking at her surroundings but she could feel obstacles from her heightened senses. When she stopped outside the gate, a low Mercedes was coming in.
Grey was still dressed in his sportswear as he looked down at the stock market. He was here to get changed for an evening gala and get his hair styled.
"Boss, isn't this Miss Jean?"
Grey grunted, he didn't even raise his head. What did her whereabouts have to do with him? He really knew how to exercise the phrase mind your own business.
"She looks weird." Grey scrunched his eyebrows, "Carlos, since when did you start obs..."
His words were cut off when he looked outside and saw Jean who was walking with lifeless eyes. She looked like someone who was out of her senses but he could see and feel her strong aura even from here.
She was very calm and vigilant but when he looked at her eyebrows, he saw the thin layers of sweat and her chattering teeth. Why does it even concern him? Those were Grey's thoughts when he realized his actions.
A minute later when Jean was almost walking past his car, he stepped out calmly.
"Didn't he ignore her?" Carlos mumbled as he scrambled out of the car too. Jaden who was outside shook his head slowly and told himself let us say we are helping humanity.
Actually Jean was an elegant and beautiful girl, and to make matters even better. She had a good upbringing and was from the military. Such a girl was a good catch even for Jaden but he knew of his problem and the impotence theory. He was too sure but he was again not confident in his ability.
He had never tried to seek treatment again since he was 22 years when he lied to his doctor that he was functioning normally again. There was two times he felt like maybe he had even had sex with someone but it seemed like an illusion. He himself was not sure and no one had ever looked for him to ask him to take responsibility.
It really felt like a dream to him, to avoid a green hat on his head he decided to not date any girl and channel his energy in career. He took it as a spring dream and that was all.
"Young master."
Jaden snapped back and waved his hand in front of Jean who was looking at him as if he was dead already. Lack of response showed that she had pushed the outer world back to avoid the pain in her abdomen.
Jaden simply went for her neck, he sensed her vigilance so any sign of danger and she would wake up from her stupor. As expected, the moment her life was threatened. Jean regained her senses to defend herself. She dodged his hand but the waves of pain became intense, it felt as if ants were gnawing on her stomach.
"Hiss!!! Young Master Grey, please take me home."
Jean spoke the moment she saw his face, although she was afraid of him. This was not time for that. She let the pain take over as she fell. Jean didn't even realize how she had let her vigilance down around Grey. It was as if she was familiar with him.
Jaden was surprised at her sense of familiarity but he still grabbed her before she hit the ground. He lifted her towards the backseat of the car, all this time Carlos had his eyes wide open.
"Boss you..."
"Drive."
Jean who sat in the car didn't feel any better, her stomach was simply on fire. The OH virus was fueling the pain but she wasn't aware of that issue and Jaden didn't know she was Fella. He would have related, because he was familiar with OH virus movement. It stays and feed on reproductive cells.
When uncontrolled it attacks other cells, which was why he built the cellar to control that fire in him every time it goes rampant. But Jean's virus on the other hand was catalyzed by cold environment. It needs a certain environment to act, so it was still active since yesterday and her womb was like a war zone at the moment full of deadly weapons that could kill human race.
Jaden felt a slight tug on his sleeve as Carlos was starting the car, he was taken aback when he saw her eyes.
"Mr Grey, can I use your hand?"
She asked as she took action, she simply grabbed his hand and placed it on the lower part of her stomach. It was Grey's second time time to feel like he was being molested as a man. Her eyes were no longer cold anymore, "Rub it for me, arggghhh!!"
Another wave of pain cut her sentence as she bit her lips to escape the pain. Grey shut his mouth and started massaging her stomach. Jean didn't expect the effect to be this great.
"Godly hands."
She sniffled as she made a comment, her eyes were almost dropping tears but she struggled to hold them back. No one would understand the pain that could make Jean almost pass out and when he eased it she felt like crying.
"You almost cried Miss General? Why?"
"Menstrual cramps hitting harder than I ever expected."
That comment made the situation a little awkward, Carlos who sensibly raised the partition added on it. Jean finally felt the strong aura in such a small place. Her pain had heightened her senses and she could even hear a slight rhythm of his strong heartbeat from a distance.
"Miss General, what a shame to cry like this every month."
Jean finally blushed, she had never struggled to speak about menstruation in the camp but someone was making it appear ambiguous. She used to even send men soldiers for sanitary pads sometimes.
She moved away from Jaden and removed his hand.
"You now know how to keep distance?" Grey raised his eyebrow but he was startled by the next reaction.
"Ouch!!!"
A painful scream echoed as Jean bit her lip till blood started flowing. He pulled her close immediately and put his hand on her stomach. Dramatically the pain eased significantly that Jean heaved a sigh but this time she held on to Grey's hand.
Jaden himself didn't even understand what was happening. He thought to himself as he massaged her silently, he could tell that his hands decreased the pain but her hands didn't.
"Is it that any man's hands would decrease the pain because of the difference in gender and hormones?"
He didn't voice out the question though, he knew a woman's dignity was something very important.
"Stop the car and buy medicine for her."
Carlos who heard the order packed in front of a chemist and went to buy medicine. Jean didn't even have the energy to say anything. She just looked at Grey as he massaged her stomach.
"OMG! This guy is a catch but he is dangerous. Handsome devil."
Grey felt the gaze and when he met it and saw the flirty but cautious and proud look, Jean was startled and looked away. He felt weird and increased his strength to pinch her but who knew when he increased the strength Jean would even feel much better.
"Huh, like that. That's the right strength."
Jean knew he wanted to hurt her and she was ready for that small pain but she didn't know his pinch at the moment would make her feel better. She started laughing when she saw the shocked look on his face.
Grey wanted to pull away but she held onto his hands, "Please, wait till I take the medicine."
Her coy eyes didn't work on him but he knew how painful it was hence kept his hands there.
Just on time Carlos brought the tablets with capped water.
Twenty minutes later, the car was quiet as Carlos reported his work and Grey still had his hand on her stomach.
"This is enough for the medicine to be absorbed in the blood stream."
A light snore was heard in the car, Jean who had made herself comfortable in someone's car was sleeping unceremoniously.
He simply took off his hand and prepared to take some water, even Carlos paused his reporting as he prepared to drive. The next moment chattering teeth could be heard as a painful groan escaped her lips. She tried to hold back but it was painful, Jean had never felt such pain in her life.
Jaden looked at his hands for a second before he told Carlos to stretch his hand and massage her stomach. He wanted to see if she will calm down, but who knew Jean would even groan more loudly to the point of tears appearing at the corner of her eyes.
"Stop!"
Carlos pulled back his hand and sat on the front seat calmly. It seems his hand was making things worse. They didn't want to understand the logic but she simply calmed down when Grey used his hand.
"Drive to Mountain Villa."
Jaden entered his house with Jean in his arms, after Carlos drove away. This was his secluded place, where he spends his days when sick and burnt out.
He placed her on the bed and stood up but the pain woke Jean up. She saw him and grabbed his hand but Grey was hungry and sweaty. He hadn't freshened up and he felt like he was dirty.
"Miss Jean I need to cook and freshen up."
Jean didn't want to experience the pain again, it was really painful. "Can I follow you to the bathroom? In the military I saw almost 1000 people naked. "
Jaden's face darkened but she was really afraid of the pain and he knew it.
