Jasper said quietly, “I took a guess.”
Willow didn’t believe him at all. She then remembered she was wearing the necklace he had given her. He could track her location at all times through this nifty little thing. She couldn’t deny that it made her feel safe.
It’d been a few hours since their brief separation, yet Willow missed him terribly. So, she held his arm. “Let’s go. I bought you some clothes.”
Jasper noticed a dozen bags of clothes strewn across the ground. He quietly picked them up without any prompting as he wrapped an arm around Willow. Then, they went inside hand-in-hand.
When they made it to the lounge, Willow started displaying everything she bought for him. Coupled with her fashion sense and his perfect body, all the clothes she purchased were just right. Unfortunately, he couldn’t find it in himself to like all of them as some of the colors were a bit too much.
He gingerly picked up a set of pajamas with cartoons printed on it and shot a deadpan stare at her. She merely smiled and hugged him. “Oh, don’t give me that look. No one else but me is going to lay eyes on you wearing that.”
Jasper nodded and kissed her. “Sure. Just for your eyes.”
“You’d look better if you’re not wearing anything, though,” Willow teased. Jasper asked seriously, “Are you sure?” She laughed. “Nope, of course not.”
“I’ll stay naked at home starting tomorrow, then,’ he said. He was happy to oblige such a simple request. She quickly covered his mouth before he could suggest any other wild notions. “No, that was a joke.” She hastily changed the subject, saying. I’m thirsty, Jasper. I need some milk.”
He answered dutifully. “I’ll get it for you.” He walked away, but then he turned around. “Which kind of milk, though?”
Although she knew he was only joking, she still put on a stern face as she put her hands on her hips. “Not yours, that’s for sure.”
He chuckled and took a carton of milk for her. She happily took it and gulped some down. While she was enjoying her drink, he started to sort out the clothes like a good househusband.
They had an appointment that night. Jared and Ellen asked them out for dinner. Therefore, they started discussing the plans for the wedding. They were near in age, so they understood what the new couple needed.
Willow and Ellen were talking about which gown to choose. Ellen told her about a designer brand, and Willow was interested. However, she shook her head in disappointment. “I’m afraid that’s not going to happen. I made some inquiries, and the designer’s schedule is packed for five years. I can’t get any slots.”
Jasper made a mental note of the brand. It seemed that she desperately wanted a wedding gown from this particular brand. He would do anything to satisfy her wishes.
After dinner, everyone went back to their homes. Back at their home, Willow held Jasper’s arm. “Let’s go around town. On your bike, that is.”
He nodded as he had been feeling rather bored staying home all this time. Hence, they went onto his bike and rode across the streets of the town. She was seated behind him, and her arms were around his waist. She leaned on his back as she stared at the brightly-lit city. Although it wasn’t a view that was unfamiliar to her, the scenery seemed exceptionally beautiful at this very moment.
It was a kind of feeling driving in a car couldn’t provide. Every time Jasper stepped on the brakes, Willow would slam into his back, causing a smile to appear on the corner of his lips. After a while, she couldn’t help but wonder whether he was stepping the brakes on purpose.
Eventually, they stopped in front of a hotel. So, she said, “Let’s stay in the hotel tonight. I booked a room for myself. We can have it for the night.”
He wasn’t surprised she had a place to stay everywhere. He nodded. “Sure. We’ll go with your plan.”
She looked at him sheepishly. “But there’s one thing I don’t have here.” She refused to go to the convenience store with him and purchase a pack of condoms. Therefore, she urged, “You’re buying that yourself. I’ll be waiting in the lobby.”
Of course, Jasper knew what she was implying. He replied, “Sure. Wait for me. I’ll be back right away.”
She sauntered into the lobby. This hotel belonged to the Mansons. The manager eagerly served the young miss of the Presgraves the moment she came in. Ten minutes later, a tall, handsome man came into the lobby. The receptionists’ eyes shone, and they stared at the man with unblinking eyes.
When they saw him approaching Willow, they got a little envious. Could he be Miss Presgrave’s boyfriend? She has a good eye for men.
Willow said something to the manager, and then she led Jasper to the elevator. They came to Willow’s room eventually. The waitstaff would clean this place every day, and they would dry clean the clothes she left here from time to time. There was a lack of men’s clothing here, so Jasper had to make do with a robe.
“I’ll keep a few sets of your clothes here next time,” said Willow. Jasper uncapped a bottle of water and handed it to her. “Have some water.”
She took it and drank from it. Love was in the details, after all. His love was all for her. He took care of her like she was a priceless treasure. He would know if she was thirsty, cold, or hungry. In fact, she had no doubt that he would do anything to keep her comfortable.
Once she was done, she gave the bottle back to him. “You have some, too.”
He heartily drank the water. In the meantime, she figured it would be best to take a shower now. Just then, he rasped, “Wanna do it together?”
She could feel herself flushing crimson. “You mean to say, get in the bathtub together?”
He quirked his lips into a smile. “That works, too.”
She murmured bashfully, “Just the shower will do. Help me wash my hair.”
Jasper was more than happy to help. Willow pushed him. “You go ahead. I’ll come in later.”
So, he went into the bathroom without further ado. She could hear water sloshing around, causing her to hesitate for a moment. Nevertheless, she mustered up her courage. We’ve gone all the way anyway. There’s no need for me to feel shy. We’re going to do something really happy. She went into the bathroom.
He had already washed his hair, so his hair was drenched. The light was shining upon his V-shaped body and taut muscles.
Even though she’d just had some water, her throat felt dry. Before she could even react, he had pulled her into his embrace. Soon, they stood under the flowing water. The water almost choked her.
The curtain of water parted, and she could feel sweet oxygen pouring into her lungs once more. She gulped some air and noticed that Jasper had leaned down to part the water. Then, he held her chin and leaned in for a kiss.
Her nerves felt electrified by his touch. Her head was woozy. It felt like she was encased in a globe of water as she dazedly wrapped her arms around his neck, responding to his kiss.
He wanted to see her reaction, so he pulled back after some time. Willow panted against his lips. She wanted to say something, but his tongue slithered into her mouth before she could voice her thoughts.
The gentle kiss stirred something up within her. By the time he was done with her, she had no strength left. So, he started shampooing her hair. She could feel his slender fingers gently rubbing her scalp. Even though his actions were far from arousing, she could still feel her heart race and her face turning red from the intimacy. The overwhelming love surrounding her was an intoxicating mix indeed.
Once Willow was clean, they came out of the shower. She didn’t need to do anything else as Jasper had changed into a robe, and he was blow-drying her hair. She closed her eyes as she enjoyed the moment. It was late by the time everything was done. So, she snuggled under the covers as he cleaned up the lounge. He only got into bed the moment everything was all tidied up.
He hugged her through the blanket before raising her chin. He peppered kisses all over her face, causing an electrifying feeling to break through her wooziness. It was to be a hot and heavy night once more.
Dawn had just broken through the horizon, but Shirley was already training outside. It was her first day reporting for duty. She set off at 7.00AM to report for duty at the security. guards’ area. When she was there, she immediately got her uniform, work ID, and all kinds of equipment in short order. Then, she was assigned a dorm. The dorm was about two thousand yards away from Zacharias’ place. Her internship would involve protecting Zacharias while he was at home. She would only be allowed to follow him out if she received any orders from her employer.
Shirley was more than happy with that. arrangement. Once she was done with the internship, she could leave. The reason shel insisted on helping Imogen was because their friendship ran deep. She was hurt during their training once, and Imogen abandoned her task just to help her. Imogen was severely criticized and had her points deducted because of that.
She had always felt guilty because of that. So, when Imogen asked her for help, she agreed without even a second thought. She had a favor to return, after all.
“Roll call, Imogen!” someone called Shirley. Shirley didn’t realize they were calling her. It wasn’t until she was stared at that she took a deep breath. “Right away.”
Once the person was gone, she heaved a sigh. / have to get used to the fact that I’m Imogen now. I can’t space out all the time. Shirley went down for the roll call. She was subjected to nearly two hours of a lecture regarding rules and regulations before it was time for task delegation.
Suddenly, she realized that there were only two female bodyguards this time. After everyone was assigned to their posts, the ladies still had no tasks to speak of. Shirley wondered why. The captain dismissed everyone, but he asked the ladies to stay behind.
“Imogen, Corinne, your task is a bit different. You’ll not be standing sentry. Instead, you’ll be assigned as secret service agents who serve the vice president in his abode. Since things are complicated at the moment, we cannot trust any outside hires. We’ll need you to act as the vice president’s maid. Your job involves everything about housekeeping.”
Shirley’s eyes went wide. What? That’s the thing I’m most worried about. She just wanted to coast through her internship and stay away from that guy as far as possible. But now I have to work near him?!
