Blake had been waiting for her at the parking lot. He had relaxed after seeing his beloved walking towards him, she was dolled up today and looked more beautiful than ever. He couldn't wait to see her when he went abroad, so he finished his work as soon as possible and as soon as he landed, tried to find out where she was.

His assistant informed him that she was at the PR event. He did not want to share their moment together, so he had waited in front of her car.

​​

Joaquin was the reason he had to leave. Dmitri had called him at midnight and told him that he should come right away because he had vital information about Joaquin.

Earlier, he had asked Dmitri for help. He had wanted to find all the clues on how to finish Joaquin before Sara suffered another traumatic experience in his hands. He will be Sara's shield and protector.

He wanted to surprise her. On his way to see her, he found a flower shop and got her a bouquet of the most expensive roses, which had been imported from France.

"Oh Blake, you're here," Sara said in an excited tone. He had wanted to see her right away, but what he was really craving was to touch her again. It was not enough for him to just take a look at her anymore, so he hugged her, inhaling her scent deeply and rubbing his face at the crook of her neck.

She was stunned. She had wanted to hug him as soon as she saw him standing in front of her car, looking all handsome, but she stopped herself thinking that Blake might not be feeling the same way.

There was nothing to be worried about because he was hugging her right now, and everything felt right.

"I missed you, baby," he whispered. It was so faint that she would not have heard it if he wasn't that close.

"Me too," she said, "I missed you a lot," it had only been a day, but it felt like she hadn't seen him in a while. She did not want to pretend with him anymore, not when she felt that he was speaking his mind and he was being honest.

They were both cautious when they first started this relationship. But ever since that night when she came clean about Joaquin, it felt like a huge barrier in between them had been removed.

Blake's sweet behavior moved her, and she could not pretend that it was not affecting her anymore. This was the type of love she had been longing for.

Blake was removing her defenses one by one, and she was not aware that she was slowly getting trapped in his net. He was never ever going to hurt her, he just won't give her an option to say no either.

Sara had her parents to look up to when it came to relationships, they had always loved and supported each other. Her father had always stayed loyal to her mother, even though he was always surrounded by temptation and beautiful people, and she wanted that in her relationship. A loyal man.

She was willing to give 100%, and she expected the same in return. Knowing that it was possible because Tristan and Ava were a living testament to this.

His heart skipped a beat when Sara acknowledged that she had missed him too. He wanted to be the only person that occupied her mind, just like she was the only person that occupied his.

He was getting so deeply involved, and just thinking about her leaving him was driving him crazy, But why think about that when they've only started.

"My baby," he said as he kissed her neck.

"Hmm...," she started moaning.

"My sweet baby," he said as started to lovingly bite her neck.

"Ahh…," Sara moaned, but stopped herself, she remembered they were in full view of the public as she pushed him back.

He had stumbled backward into her car, not expecting Sara to push him away. He looked at her and frowned, "How dare she push him back again?" he thought angrily.

The reason Sara had pushed him was not that she did not like what he did. Actually, she was getting used to him and was craving him more every day.

Sara looked at his angry face and felt guilty, she tried to tuck her hair behind her ear nervously, waiting for Blake to say something.

To break the tension, she took her hands in his, not wanting him to get mad because of a misunderstanding. He was still stewing at being rejected, so he just watched her closely, trying to see what she was trying to do.

Sara took a deep breath, "Blake, we are still in the parking lot, and people can see us," she said shyly, looking around and seeing a few people walking about.

It dawned on him that she was being modest, he forgot where they were, and that was his fault. He will make sure to remember that next time, this was, after all, her first relationship. It's just that whenever it came to her, he lost all control.

"Did you push me because you're shy?" he teased. She blushed and hid her face in his chest, nodding her agreement, she was not comfortable making out in public.

Blake let out a laugh and patted her head lovingly. "Come, let's go home," he whispered.

He wanted to spend the night with her, so he instructed her to tell her parents that she was going to be held up at work and won't be coming home for tonight. She wanted to spend the night with him as well, so she followed his instructions.

The last time Sara was here, he had provided her with pajamas, and she hadn't used it last time and left it behind, she found it in the same room she had used last time.

Blake told her to take a shower and was insistent that she should not come into the kitchen because he had a surprise for her.

Blake had told the servants to stock up the pantry and the refrigerator with all the ingredients he needed to cook Sara a five-course meal.

So she took a shower, changed into her pajamas, and went into the living room to watch tv. She didn't find anything interesting, so she started fiddling with her phone.

She got a text message from Emily. "Hi, Sara! This is Emily. I hope I'm not disturbing you," Emily had texted.

"Hi, Emily! I'm free right now. What's up?" Sara replied back.

"Would you like to have lunch with me tomorrow?" Emily sent.

"Sure, do you have a restaurant in mind?" Sara texted.

"Let's meet at X restaurant at 1 pm if that's okay," said Emily, "Sorry if I'm forcing you to have lunch with me. It's just I don't have any friends here," she added.

People were intimidated by Emily because she was very outspoken, she told the truth as it is, and it was hard for her to adjust to a culture where people usually hide the real meaning behind their words.

"Don't worry about it, I don't mind. You can count me as one of your friends. We can go do anything you want, just let me know," Sara texted with a smiley emoji at the end. She always felt a good vibe when it came to Emily, so she decided to take her offer. Like Emily, she had no friends she could count on as well, unless you count her sister Ava.

"Omg, you are wonderful. Thanks," Emily sent her message with a kissy emoji at the end.

Blake had the housekeeper decorate the dining table because this was not an ordinary dinner, he wanted it to be memorable. This was the first step in courting Sara, to show her his love through the first five-course meal he has prepared in his life. Not even his parents had this privilege before.

It will be the first time Sara will taste anything that he had cooked, last time he tried to make her spaghetti he got carried away with kissing her, which ended up ruining the sauce.

"Sara! Come! Dinner is ready," Blake called from the dining room.

She switched off the TV and was very touched when she saw what he did for her.

The dining room was awash with lavender-scented candles, setting a very romantic mood, in the center of the table, a vase was covered with freshly cut daisies, while in the background you could hear soft piano music playing.

Blake had intended to serve her himself, so he had sent all the maids to go home early.

There were appetizers on the table, and she could not wait to sample all of them. It was a five-course meal Blake had informed her, enumerating the types of food he was going to serve her through the night.

"Did you make all the dishes by yourself?" she asked, stunned that he had prepared complicated-sounding dishes in such a short time.

"Yes, my dear, it's all for you. Have a taste of the first course and tell me how it is," Blake asked with a smile.
