In the dark, Aiden opened his eyes. He didn’t know what Anya was thinking, and what made it difficult for his wife to sleep. Was Anya still thinking about Keara’s identity?

But Aiden didn’t want to explain too much about Keara. After all, Keara was dead. What needed to be explained?

​​

He stared at Anya’s face, who was sleeping soundly. His hands reached out to tidy up Anya’s messy hair that covered her face.

Did Anya think about his relationship with Keara? Did Anya care about him? Did Anya start to love him?

That thought raced through Aiden’s mind as he looked at his wife’s face with a gentle gaze. After that, he closed his eyes again and fell asleep.

…

The next morning, Anya woke up early even though she had difficulty sleeping. She sat on the bed and stretched out her arms, seeing Aiden still asleep beside her.

Anya looked at the clock on the nightstand and realized that she had to get ready for her first day of work. She took the clothes from the changing cupboard and rushed to the bathroom to clean herself and wash her hair.

After finishing the shower, Anya wrapped her wet hair in a towel. However, just as she was about to put on her clothes, she accidentally dropped her clothes on the floor and made it soaked.

“Ah!” She shouted, patting her forehead. What should she do now? She had no clothes to wear.

After being confused for a while, Anya considered it. Aiden should have come down for breakfast by now. So, the room should be currently empty. She could take some clothes and change in his room.

Anya didn’t dare to wait any longer for fear of being late. She immediately wrapped her body in a towel and came out of the bathroom to get new clothes.

When she came out of the bathroom, she saw that Aiden was sitting on the edge of the bed, looking like he had just woken up from his sleep.

Anya looked at Aiden in such shock that she forgot to react.

Aiden who just woke up was also very surprised. It was still early, but he could see a very beautiful sight. His blood seemed to churn when he saw that his wife was only wrapped in a towel and looked like she had just come out of the bathroom.

After being shocked for a while, Anya immediately tried to cover herself. She turned around in a panic and turned her back on Aiden. Her skin that was not covered by the towel looked so smooth, making Aiden feel amazed again. Her long legs also looked so beautiful, they almost made Aiden’s soul fly from his body.

Aiden could only swallow his saliva when he saw Anya. From Anya’s embarrassed reaction, he knew he shouldn’t keep staring at her body. But he couldn’t take his eyes off as he was deeply fixated on Anya’s beautiful body.

Waking up from her reverie, Anya remembered something. Aiden couldn’t see her! Why should she panic? Apart from that, Aiden also didn’t react at all and didn’t say anything. It was all because Aiden couldn’t see that Anya was only wearing a towel. Anya immediately felt a little stupid because she was panicking herself.

That was very ignorant of her.

She slowly turned around, seeing that Aiden looked completely at her direction. The man was silent, as if he did not realize what was going on. Anya immediately felt relieved.

However, everything that happened was clearly visible in Aiden’s eyes. After Anya turned around, Aiden could see Anya’s breasts which were only wrapped in a towel. Aiden’s face did not change, it remained expressionless as usual. However, his breathing had become very fast due to the turmoil he felt. He admired Anya’s body, which was very beautiful with the faint light of his imperfect vision.

“Today is your first day of work, don’t be late. Hurry down and have breakfast. I’ll ask Abdi to take you there.” Aiden said casually.

“Yes.” Anya answered with a sigh of relief. Aiden couldn’t see her so she spoke as if nothing had happened.

Anya walked towards the corner of the room which was full of wardrobes. The room was attached to the master bedroom, not separated by a door or a partition. So that from her current position, Aiden couldn’t see her clearly.

Anya picked a dress from one of the closets and peeked at Aiden, making sure the man wasn’t looking her way. After making sure that the man really didn’t see her, Anya took down the towel that had wrapped her body.

Aiden, still sitting on the edge of the bed, could only be amazed. He did not expect Anya to change clothes in front of him. He had indeed touched Anya’s whole body and admired her when they made love in the hotel. But at that moment he was so engulfed in passion that he could not take a close look at this beautiful body.

But at this time, Anya’s body was exposed in front of him. He turned his head so as not to look directly at Anya, but his eyes still glanced and admired Anya’s body quietly, unable to take his eyes off her. The scenery before him was so beautiful that it made him both surprised and amazed.

He swallowed repeatedly, holding back the passion that began to rise from his body.

Anya changed clothes very quickly. In just a moment, she was all dressed up and looking neat. As soon as she lifted her head, she saw that Aiden was looking at her. Her face immediately flushed with embarrassment. She walked over to Aiden, stretched out her hand and shook it in front of Aiden’s eyes.

No reaction.

Anya felt very relieved when she saw him idling.

Aiden stretched out his hand and held Anya’s hand which was right in front of his eyes. His other hand immediately wrapped around Anya’s waist to bring her closer to him, “You smell good. Have you taken a bath?”

Anya sat on Aiden’s lap, but felt something was wrong. Something stood out!

She immediately rose to her feet in panic. There was no way Aiden would react from seeing her body. She had confirmed that the man couldn’t see her! Did men react like that every morning?

“I- … I’m going down to eat.” Anya said haltingly.

Aiden didn’t let go of Anya’s body and whispered in her ear, “I also want to eat…” However, somehow Aiden’s words seemed to have hidden meanings. Aiden didn’t want to eat breakfast— he wanted to eat her! Aiden wanted to make love to her!

Anya’s face immediately turned red until her ears felt hot, “Eh? I… I have to go to work right away!” She said as she tried to run from Aiden’s lap.

Aiden just chuckled when he saw Anya’s reaction. Apparently, the woman knew what he meant.

Anya felt confused when Aiden’s hand was still hugging her tightly. Why was Aiden teasing her like this all of a sudden? Usually the man didn’t say much. Maybe he was in a good mood because of their date yesterday?

She took the initiative to kiss Aiden on the cheek and said, “I’m going downstairs to eat, okay?”

Aiden could feel the kiss sticking to his cheek. Anya’s lips that touched his cheek felt so soft. 

However, the kiss made the hug around Anya’s waist only get tighter.

“Aiden …” Anya’s hand grabbed Aiden’s shoulder to support her body so she wouldn’t fall. Aiden really didn’t want to let go of his embrace. He looked at Anya in his arms. The woman’s face flushed with embarrassment. Sometimes one of her hands would tuck her hair over her ear, a sign that she was being nervous.

Aiden really wanted to drag Anya back to bed and show her how much he loved her.

However, today was Anya’s first day of work and this job was very important for her. For today alone, he decided to back down.

Anya could feel Aiden’s hand loosening up. She immediately rose to her feet, took her bag and ran toward the door. However, when she reached the doorway, she stared at Aiden again and unconsciously smiled.

Aiden could feel an arrow piercing right through his heart. That smile was so cute that it made his whole body tremble.

‘This woman will truly be the reason for my death…’
