At night, the kids slumbered soundly when Aunt Sophie brought them more bags of candies. They were still mad at their parents who didn’t listen to them but still claimed to love them.

Marissa was looking out of the living room window when two strong hands wrapped around her waist from behind. With a smile, she rested her head on the chest.

“What are you thinking?” She felt his lips on her neck but didn’t turn around.

“That we should start a condom business,” his body started shaking with mirth when he heard that. Marissa also shook her head in exasperation, “These kids!”

“Yeah. These kids,” he turned her into his arms and kissed her forehead, “these kids and their

mom. Both are awesome.”

“Agree!” she said with a playful roll of her eyes, “But condoms are the best!” she remarked with a giggle, and he again started laughing.

“I can’t believe it. I sent them alone in that section because I wanted to give them freehand. They’ll sure discover much more once they grow up,”

She started teasing the garment of his t–shirt, “For example?”

“For example, once they are mature enough, I might ask them to visit MSin offices and get training. After all, they are the ones who have to take care of my business.”

He touched her hair strands twisting it around his finger. He meant to look down for a moment but then saw this little pout of her mouth which was partially opened, “Your lips…”

Marissa frowned and quickly wiped her mouth with the back of her hand, “Something there? Is it cleaned now?”

He swallowed and looked at those plumpy treats, “No. It’s still there. Let me clean it,” he said in a hoarse whisper and when she tried to speak, his lips were already tasting them.

Marissa’s hands were flat against his chest, and she was responding to the kiss with equal fervor.

Whenever he was around, she could feel the dampness between her legs but today she was feeling much more than just that delicious wetness.

“Marissa!” he leaned his forehead against hers not aware what to speak. These sudden alien feelings were too much to handle.

He didn’t want to give her the impression that he was taking advantage of the situation. When he would come close to her that wouldn’t be without her consent.

Her body might be willing to do it now, but he would never be able to bear it if she would regret

it later.

“Why such a short kiss?” she asked him, panting.

“Sorry?” He pulled back with a frown, “what did you say?”

“I said the kiss was short, dummy!” Rafael chuckled and held her face.

“We are becoming confident. Aren’t we?” he captured her lips again first softly and then bit her lower lip a littl

“Umm,” she moaned in his mouth and moved closer to him until her vagina wanted to grind into his crouch.

His mind must have registered it because his hand automatically moved to her hip, holding i possessively and pulling her more to him.

“Rafael…” she tried to speak his name only to realize that his tongue was in her mouth as a result an animalistic sound released out of her throat.

Their eyes were still closed when someone started clapping close to them..

“Bravo! After making their girls upset, parents are celebrating!” Sophia wasn’t looking at them, but they didn’t miss her red blotchy face after witnessing their intimate kissing.

“God!” Rafael pulled Marissa’s head to him with a chuckle, “Aunt Sophie! We love you!”

Taken aback, Sophia eyed Rafael thinking he must have lost his mind. He finally let go of Marissa after kissing her check and walked up to Sophie.

“A woman who is so caring towards my kids, he held her hands, “I wish she finds the best in this world,” he said sincerely.

“L… L… ah thank you…” Sophie said shyly, “Before dr off to sleep, the girls were again

complaining about…”

“Oh, Sophie, Rafael pinched her nose, “they were after condoms.”

“Yeah. As a father you should have… they were after what? her jaw was hung open and she turned to Marissa who was trying to suppress her smile with a nod.

“He is right! And don’t ask us how we felt when the cashier informed us that we were buying four hundred plus of that stuff in every fu*cking flavor!”

Covering her mouth, Sophia started laughing like crazy.

“Oh, God! My babies wanted condoms? Seriously?”

“Thankfully that guy didn’t ask for our contact numbers, they usually want that for promotional stuff…” Rafael said and that reminded Sophie about Joseph.

“Yeah. I also forgot to ask someone’s contact number,” she mumbled the complaint. Rafael, who was standing close by tapped her head with his finger.

“What are you muttering, girl.”

“Nothing!” Sophie gave him an over–brightened smile and looked at Marissa, “remember the White Palace that we loved a lot?”

When Marissa nodded, Sophie smiled sadly.

“It’s sold. I saw workers there, making some transformations to the property.”

Rafael slowly started moving away as if avoiding this conversation.

“I don’t know, Mar. I just hope to God those changes are not too big”

Sophie was dying to talk to Marissa about that dude. She was waiting to be alone with her. Though now she shared a good relationship with Rafael but that was still not enough to share with him how attracted she felt to a man.

Rafael went to a chair to sit on it and started scrolling his phone.

“He is staying here more,” Sophie bumped her shoulder to Marissa’s, “What is going on between you two?” Sophia wiggled her brows making her chuckle.

“Nothing is going on. It’s the weekend and he wants to spend his maximum time with kids,”

“Yeah yeah…” Sophie rolled her eyes with a fake yawn, “I know how close he is getting to kids… and you too,” she again bumped their shoulders.

“Stop it!” Marissa stole a glance towards Rafael while whispering to Sophie, “he might hear us.”

Marissa was about to smack her arm when heard the doorbell.

Sophia went to get the door and Marissa’s gaze moved to Rafael who raised his face to look at her. For a moment their eyes met, and he winked before that same killer grin appeared on his

face.

He didn’t get busy on the phone anymore and placed his hand dramatically on his chest over his

heart.

Marissa couldn’t believe it. The rudest man on earth who was also the CEO of a multinational

was acting like a teenager.

The spell was broken by Sophie, “Marissa. It’s Gerard. He says he is here to pick you up for the d/or date.

Ouch.

Marissa had completely forgotten about the date.
