Demi exhaled and glared at Christian. Everyone gets married unexpectedly and she was the first one who got a serious long-term boyfriend. However, the dumb ass isn't even proposing to her not until she agreed about babies. She's already 25 years old and yet, he's treating her like a teenager and like she's not an adult.

"What?" Christian asked.

​​

"You are clueless as ever." She said shaking her head. "Fuck you." She said it calm yet cold. "And you aren't getting anything for the whole month."

"What?" Christian frowned and scratched his head. "Babe, what do you mean?" Demi just shook her head and walked off. "Babe!" He called and followed her.

Demi took the car keys from him.

"You go home on your own." She said and leave him. Christian followed her as she gets into the car.

"Demi!" He called.

She droved off quickly after pulling off from the parking lot. Christian scratched his head.

"Wow, what a temper?" Ashton teased him.

"Oh, fuck off! Give me a ride to the penthouse. Like right now, I have to follow Demi."

"I think you need to propose to her," Zendaya said. Christian frowned at her.

"No. Not until she agreed about babies."

"You are a dumb ass," Bea said. "Just like Noah. You, Ashton, Mason, Jaxon, and Noah should just always stick together. All dumb asses!" Bea snorted at them and went to her car.

"Wow," Jaxon reached his chest. "How did I get into trouble?" He asked.

Mason patted his head.

"That's because you are a dumb ass," Mason said.

"I think they have their periods at the same time," Noah commented and followed Bea.

The boys just shrugged, clueless, and went to their cars to escort other heirs and heiresses back home.

Raiden drives carefully back home as his parent's car is following them. He reached her hand and kissed it. He continued driving while holding her hand. It only takes twenty minutes to reach their home. He's excited to make love with his wife. He tried hard to restrain since they are in his parent's house.

When they reached the door. Raiden closed it and attack her with a mouthful of a kiss. She helped him peeled off his coat. Raiden put her on the bed and he removed his shoes and the rest of his clothes while she's doing the same. She kicked her stiletto shoes and licked her lips. She spread her legs for him. Raiden, go down with his mouth.

All night, Raiden seemed to endlessly make love with her. They are trying not to be noisy but they seemed to be noisy until the outside their room. His parent's room is on the other wing of the mansion and it's just good that his and Rhys's room is in the same wing.

Raiden caressed her face with the back of his hand down to her flawless arm and breasts. It's four in the morning and she looked tired.

"You have strong stamina as always." She mumbled. "I'm going to sleep."

"Yeah, go to sleep." He looked past her to the stimulator that he bought for her that is charging.

Raiden remembered few things with her. Most of them are lovemaking. Then, the time that he's in the hospital and he couldn't recognize her. She takes care of him although she's sick. 

He gently moved closer and kissed her forehead.

"I love you…"

<><><><>

Rhys looked at her sleeping peacefully after two rounds of lovemaking. She looked so tired and goes off to sleep ignoring his touch. She turned back from him and hugged the pillow. Rhys stared at the ceiling. He tried hard to sleep but he just couldn't.

I move close to her and hugged her from behind. He needs a cuddle. Although she's not a person who likes a cuddle, he needs it. He kissed her shoulder and closed his eyes.

He heard the noisy alarm and he pulled out from her and went to the other side to go back to sleep. He just got sleep and now, she put an early alarm for it. I opened his eyes and turned to her. She took out a pill from the drawer. She always had a bottle of water on the bedside table and she drank it. She turned to him and frowned.

"What?"

"Nothing." He lay flat down. "It's damn seven already?"

"Yeah, you didn't sleep?" She asked as she gathered the clothes around and put it on the laundry basket. Then, she went to the bathroom. Soon, she came back naked and turned on the television for news.

She approached him and pushed the cover. She smirked at him.

"Oh, your man down there is alive, huh?"

Rhys rolled his eyes.

"I don't have a good sleep." He complained indicating that she didn't agree to another round.

"Well, I think it's the pills, I need to~~" She straddled him and stroke him. Then, she slid it inside her and hold on to his chest as she thrust.

Rhys never expect her to do that. But she's doing it. Then, she's seemed to enjoy it so he just let her until she stopped when she tightened. He sat up, pulled her as he leaned on the headboard, and thrust back while holding her waist so she would continue until she's screamed for her first orgasm.

He lay her down and finished it.

Rhys gently pulled out and lay beside her.

"Rhys,"

"Hmm?"

She moved close to him and pillow over his chest.

"Should we stay like this until we get tired of each other or~~"

"What do you mean? It's in the contract."

"I know. But when are we going to end it?"

"When I fall in love. We'll end it. But everything here is yours." Rhys touched her soft hair and caressed it.

"We don't love each other. Rhys, I think you should stop sending allowance to my account. I have a job and I can pay the bills and others around here."

"Hmm, then just resigned and we'll just do this every time we both want."

"Sounds like you are indicating that I am your whore… which is quite true."

"You are not my whore. You are my best friend."

"Then, don't send an allowance to my account.���

"If that's what you want then."

"That'll make me comfortable." She looked up at him.

"Okay."

"By the way, your mother is scary." She said. He laughed at her.

"I know. She's scary but she's the best mother you'll ever wish for."

"She sounded so caring and strict too."

"Hmm."

"I need to get up. I can't be late for work." She tapped him and sat up.

She went to the bathroom and he stayed there. He looked at the television and frowned. He sat up, reached the remote, and increased the volume.

The news is about the President that has a sudden heart attack and is in the hospital and critical. This is bad news for the four empires. He reached for his phone and called Raiden but he's not answering. Maybe he's tired from the lovemaking so he hung up and called Christian.

"Heya!"

"Hey, what's up?��

"The President is in the hospital! I think this will be bad."

"Yeah, one of the PSG just contact Andromeda."

"Hmm, what will happen?" Rhys asked.

"We'll just see what will happen."

"I feel bad about this."

"Go to Empire Café," Christian said.

"Yeah, I will." Rhys hung up and then, he slipped off from bed. He stood and went to the bathroom. The bathroom is unlocked so, he just went in and join her in the bath.

"What?" She asked and continue massaging her head with foam on her head. "Why didn't you use the other bathroom?"

"This one is near!"

Rhys pushed her gently away from the shower and he sighed and took her shampoo.

After the bath, he took her towel and she shouted at him. He put it on.

Suddenly, a big pain hit his temple. He held on to the wall and groaned as he held his head.

"Rhys!" She shouted.

Rhys felt a swirling vision. It's painful and it's a lot.

Christian, Noah, Mason, Jaxon, and Ashton are in a warehouse with their gears and guns on. They are muttering on their earpiece when they said that there's no one in there. Then, on the other line is Shadow saying that it's a trap.

They turned from each other as they move in unison but a group of men stepped forward. A man in a suit smirking. They pointed a gun at them. Red lights are around their body. Then, they killed Noah, Jaxon, Mason, and Ashton leaving Christian. The man lifted a phone, smiling at him.

"Go with us or your little girlfriend will die?"

Then, he was pulled into another scenario where Bea and Demi are. Then, the whole Empire café exploded with innocent people in there.

Rhys gasped and he grabbed something and a hand reached him. He looked around and looked up at Camila.

"What's wrong? Do you want me to bring you to the hospital?"

He shook his head.

"I'll get you water." She helped him up and take him to bed.

Rhys's felt like he also felt the impact of the explosion. His hands are shaking and then, Camila reached his hand and gave him water. He thanked her and take a sip on it.
