At that time, Asher and Aria are making sure that they wouldn't leave their eyes on Mason. Jaxon is with Mason at that moment and he hugged him like he usually does. Mason felt uncomfortable with it but when Jaxon said that they usually do it, Mason uneasily excused himself.

They followed Mason through the cameras of the house with their triplet's cousin from their Uncle Enzo. They have access to the whole house and they are controlling it. The house is more like a mansion or more like a hotel villa. There's a big pool, lots of guest rooms and guest rooms that are converted to master bedrooms. The security is tight and it's one of the getaway villas that Lawson had.

​​

"There," The triplets laughed when Jaxon hugged Mason and pushed him to Bea's room through the monitor. The lights were on and Athena grabbed Mason and pushed him to bed. She straddled him and they cheered. He looked like he's enjoying it as Athena is rubbing him.

"That's sexy," Asher said and they cheered. However, Mason received a big punch from Athena.

"Ow!" They reacted like they were the ones who got hurt.

Athena punched him again and again and there's no bleeding until she pulled out the mask and the real face came.

"Did you just punch his eyes?" Zendaya asked.

"Yeah, I am dating this guy and I will do as I wish."

Athena took out the earpiece and gave it to Zendaya. Athena moaned and caressed the guy so the people who have the bug could hear that she's doing it with the guy. Bea rolled her eyes as she smacked Noah for him not to listen. Then, she turned on the television and Asher put the porn in there and they increased the volume.

Athena pulled out the mouthpiece and gave it to Bea as she positioned it next to the speaker of the television.

They took out the device and since the guy's eyes are closed, they won't see such a thing. Athena ripped off the man's clothes, even his boxers. Chelsea covered her mouth.

"That's small," Chelsea said.

"That's not how Mason's dick looked like," Jaxon said.

"Wait~~you saw it?" Bea faced him. Jaxon covered his mouth. "Did you just strip in front of each other?" Bea faced her fiancée. "So, what do you mean by 'he didn't want to do it with us'? Huh?" She interrogated. Noah hugged her.

"It's strip dancing." He mumbled.

Back in the control room, the triplets are laughing so hard even Asher and Aria.

"You are stripping for who?" Bea became hysterical as she smacked Noah.

"Babe, it's a surprise. I don't want to ruin it."

"Did you guys actually get naked?"

"No! We have our boxers on!" He rolled his eyes.

"Then how did Jaxon know Mason's size?" Bea crossed her arms.

The hackers in the control room fell on their seats as they laughed hysterically.

Athena never stripped anyone but Xavier. But seeing the guy disgusts him. So, they tied him up and removed the contact lens from his eyes Natalia and Cyra. It causes a little bleeding from the eyes and they injected him with nanomites so it'll heal. They take him to the basement where he will not be able to leave.

At that time, the Rose Empire is already responding to save Mason from the Eagle Empire. They received a contact from their spy and they plan to kill Mason in a few days. The Dragon Empire wouldn't let it happen. Mason is their family and a trusted agent. So, they have to save him.

Chelsea left the room feeling a little disgusted with what they did to the guy. She's disappointed that it's not that big. But anyway, the thing that they need to do is to rescue Mason. This is the worst Christmas vacation ever.

After what Athena did, she left and went to her room. She didn't want to go out for the mission. She'll let others do it. At this moment, all she wanted to do is to sulk and stare at nowhere. Thinking Xavier didn't help and it slowly killed her. She sat up and reached for the phone that she gave to Xavier. She checked the videos that he saved. It's her photos and videos. There's even a video of them making love but Xavier covered their bodies and it's more like kissing.

Xavier seemed to forget to turn off the phone and he watched her sleep and caressed her and kissed her. She's sleeping heavily at that moment. Xavier murmured his love to her ear even though she's sleeping. Her heart aches a lot. She just told the guy that she loved him too and after a few days, this happened. The love is gone. Everything is gone. She might be selfish but she wanted it back. She didn't want any gift for Christmas. She just wanted him and her family.

She watched more videos of him taking a selfie while she's sleeping. There are more of her photos and it seems like he's taking a selfie with her every day whenever he wakes up. She smiled and checked the messages. Then, there's the message that he sent to her with her sleeping and a caption.

"Yeah, I did that. I knocked you out last night." Xavier said.

She put away the phone feeling depressed. She needed him. Her mother told her that her life doesn't revolve around him. But somehow, it just did. She felt alive around him. She felt beautiful, cheerful, and everything that a woman would want.

Esme stared at Laurence for as long as he spoke with girls from other families that belonged to EPUA. Jealousy runs through her body. It's been like days since the last kiss or last had sex. She wanted it. She's eighteen and raging hormones are there. She also loves him and she couldn't help but get too attached to him ever since she was twelve. She fell in love with him at that young age. It might be puppy love but as the days pass, she dreamed of marrying him which she brushed off her head. She even wrote songs about him. Mostly the songs she writes are about him.

She left the great room and went upstairs to her room. She had her room since her little siblings are sleeping with her parents, she didn't have to worry about them.

She went to the bathroom to wash her face and brush her teeth and wash her lower part. Then, she went to her closet to pick up a dress. She stopped when the silhouette of a man was standing on the corner.

"Hey," Laurence mumbled and he locked the door. "It's just me."

She reached her heart and sighed.

"I thought it's someone else."

He approached her and scooped her face.

"I miss you." He kissed her forehead. She pushed him gently and brushed him off. "What's wrong?"

"You were flirting with those girls."

"Flirting? Are you jealous?" He asked. She glared at him. He chuckled. "You are adorable when you are jealous." He hugged her from behind and kissed her shoulder.

"Let's do it." She proposed.

"We can't." He pouted at her and kissed her forehead. "I'm sorry, baby."

"Laurence, I want it." She sighed. "I just washed my part down there."

"Really? I want to smell it." He smirked.

She turned to him and wrapped her arms around his waist. Her innocent pleading eyes looked up at him. Laurence just wanted to hug her, kiss her and tell her that he loves her. But it seemed like the thing that he is avoiding is hard to resist. He didn't want their parents to catch them.

"I want to." Laurence kissed her forehead.

"Then let's do it."

"I~~I don't think that we should. I know that you missed me so much. But there are lots of eyes and they can't know."

She sighed.

"But you can flirt with those girls?"

"Half of them are my cousins. Then, half are from family friends."

She rolled her eyes. Laurence carried her and put her to bed. He took the chair and put it on the door. Then, he closed the curtains.

Esme sat up and removed her room. Laurence walked toward her and he stripped his clothes. He knelt down and kissed her knees.

"What's your Christmas Present?" She asked.

"Christmas is in a few days." He spread her legs and traces hot kisses on her inner thighs. Her breath heaves and she looks down at him.

"After I graduate, can we tell mom and dad about us?"

He nodded and licked her. She hissed lay down. It's hot. She felt so hot even though it's cold in the room. It's what she's been waiting for. She and Laurence usually have sex almost every night or at least four times a week. Even though she's on her shot, there are specific dates that he needed to use a condom and they are always careful.

Laurence made love to her just as she wanted and they cuddled at each other as they listened outside.

"I left my phone and other things in my room so they won't know about us." He said softly.

"But, Laurence, what if they know sooner?"

"I have to fight for you." He kissed her forehead. "Because I love you."

Esme pressed her cheek to his chest feeling a little anxious.
