Jason was taking care of Hailey when he brought her to his penthouse. She faint for a while but then woke up after thirty minutes. He remove her clothes because she said so and he check her whole body. He saw marks on her neck and then he reach her stomach.

"What do you feel?"

"I am fine." She said and shudder a little. He reach the robe and put it on her. Then he made her sit on the bed and gave her warm water. He prepare the bathtub and filled it with warm water, he brought her to the bathroom and join her in the bathtub cuddling.

"What did he do?"

She told him everything that happened from the start, how he touched her, kissed her and punch her in the middle of her upper abdominal. He clenches his fist and hugged her tightly. She started crying and all he can do is hug her tightly and say sorry to her for leaving her side.

"Sabrina is back." She said. Jason was too focused on saving her that he forgot about Sabrina. Then the Shadow must be real. Everything he said came true. Sabrina is back which means that it was the rise of the Dark Lord.

"Do you want me to call the doctor?"

"I am fine. I just need your cuddle." She snuggle on his chest and kisses his cheeks.

"Don't worry, darling… I am here and Tyler will be tortured for what he did to you."

"We can just lock him up."

"That won't do because he's crazy and Francisco is his back up. He has big money and probably his men is searching for him." He caress her stomach and kiss her neck. "Does it still hurt?" She shook her head.

He exhales and before the water gets cold he wrapped her up and dry her body. Hailey reach him down there. He get aroused and then she pushes him on the bed. She crawl up to him and sat on top of him with pleasure with his hard manhood inside her. He hold her hips and let her please herself.

Because of euphoria and the arousal he felt, he thrust back and lay her down and made love to her all night. Until they are both tired. But Jason will never get tired of her. He wanted more and couldn't get enough of her. It's like their first time. The first time they look at each other, both vulnerable, with passion in their eyes that burns each other's body.

Jason never feel so aroused and greedy in his life in wanting to be one with her. He look at his beautiful best friend. She got everything. Beauty, sexy healthy body, intelligence, wealth and she's kind. What else is he searching for? Besides, his heart was close to her. They've known each other for long but the spark between them was like the first time. It never gets old and rotten.

He kiss her lips, and press it again until it wake her up a little. She close her eyes again and snuggle on him.

"Hail… I love you. I really do."

But there's no response from Hailey.

After taking a shower, Allison went to the living room and saw him tidying up, after wiping off his sweats, he drop his body on the sofa and turn on the television. She sat down at the space beside him and his arm was automatic as it wrapped around her waist.

She reach the fresh towel and gave it to him.

"Take a shower." She said.

"Don't I smell good?"

"You always smell yourself and I like it but that sweat will mark the couch with bacteria." She answered. He laugh and kiss her cheeks and rush to the bathroom. He took a quick shower, put on his boxers and join her on the sofa. She took the remote with her left hand and he notice that she's wearing the ring. It was perfect on her long slender fingers and it was glimmering. Does it mean that… she want to marry him?

Mark couldn't take his euphoria so he wrapped his arms around her and pull her to his lap. He lay her down on the sofa and throw the remote away. She was panting as she help him remove her clothes. His fingers intertwined with hers as he pinned it above her head and he start kissing her face, her neck and that perky hard nipples. Her back arcs and it's the sign that she's wet. He enter her and thrust in her hard but slow. She squirm and accepted his kiss.

"Allison…" He murmur as he make love to her.

It was a quick love making that left both of them satisfied.

Mark was still catching up when they heard the sound of doorbell. He frown and kiss her just to ignore it but it became annoying when they heard the voice of a woman. Allison put her clothes back on and see the person outside. The woman have a casserole of Lasagna and she Is wearing a flowery dress and smile brightly.

She walk to the door and open it.

"Hi." She greets with a bright smile. She only stare at her. "I brought lasagna. I am your new neighbor just few kilometers away." Which means—a half kilometer away. "Houses here are very far and you are the nearest house from mine so—I came to say hi." She said.

"Hi." Allison answered.

"Try my lasagna, it's the best." The woman notice her ring as she handed over the casserole to her.

Mark appear behind Allison and wrapped his arms around her. He's wearing an eyeglasses and only wearing a boxer. He kisses Allison and glance at the woman at about twenty five years old.

"Hello." He said. "Sorry, but I have to steal my woman. She's not much of talker and she rarely socialize." He said. "See you around." He said and pull Allison inside and lock the door.

The woman stayed there still standing and couldn't get Mark's body off her mind. Her whole body feel hot as she turn around, blow some air and start walking back to her house. Her husband can't satisfy her and his body isn't as good as the neighbor's. He also has a very fine back and ass.

Mark took the lasagna and open it. It smell good and Allison stare at it. He asked her.

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing. It just remind me of my mother and how she makes lasagna in a casserole."

"Hmm. I can make something like this for new memories." He kiss her forehead.

"We can't eat food from the neighbor." She said and throw it into the trash bin. "We don't know if its a trap or something."

Mark open the cabinet and search for lasagna pasta. He collect other ingredients and look at her. She doesn't look sad at all but he knows that she was sad inside there. She just can't cry. She can't because it was hard for them. So he move closer to her, wrapped his arms around her and put her on the stool.

"So, what do you want, Lasagna or me?" He asked.

"Are you a food?" She asked.

"I can be." He grins and kiss her lips. Patted her head. "I have to make food first. Our baby might be hungry."

"We don't have a baby." She said. He smile and winked at her.

"There will be soon." He kiss her stomach and goes back to preparing the ingredients. Then he took the apron and let her watch him.

"Mark." She calls him. It was the first time she called his name. Mark put everything else aside and focus on her. "If we have a baby—would you push her or him to do what you want her to be?"

He walk closer to her and scoop her face.

"We should raise our child to be able to make his or her decision. If we keep pushing her or him to do something that she doesn't want to, then her childhood won't be happy. I promise you, Allison. I will never leave you. I will stay here with you until you get pregnant, until you give birth and I will always be here with you, as we raise our children."

"I am dumb, for thinking of having kids when I don't even know how to raise them."

Mark smiled at her slowly and he scoop her face.

"We will raise them as good parents. You will be a good mother."
