The Billionaire's Kept Woman

Chapter 24 - Intertwined

She felt so drained at the moment while her lover was laughing beside her. She reached the pillow and shoved it to his face. She sighed and reached the remote and turned on the television.

"Should we sleep?" He asked as he put away the pillow.

She sighed and reached the pendant. She noticed that there are clinging metals inside it and she gave them to him.

"Open it."

"No." He grinned at her.

"Why not? I don't have a key for this thing." She checked it and shook it again. He turned to her sideways and admired her as she checked the golden locket. The biggest one that she ever saw in her entire life. "You know that this is a heavy thing to wear around."

"Hmm," He roamed his eyes on her beautiful naked body. She didn't manage to cover her top one while she checked the locket and kept mumbling.

For him, she's his symphony and angel as he listened to her voice while admiring her milk skin.

"Are you even listening?" She asked and pulled the sheet and covered it with her nude top.

"I am." He smiled at her.

"You are more handsome whenever you smile." She moved closer to him and shoved her face to his chest.

Alessandro was surprised by her words. But he smiled and put his hand at the back of her head. He took the locket and put it at the side table.

"Sleep now, baby."

He groaned when she pushed him flat on the bed and climbed up on top of him and lie on top of him. He grinned as he pulled the duvet and covered it on their bodies. She fell asleep quickly. She might be too tired. His poor wife. He got tired a bit and turned sideways but kept his arms wrapped around her. He woke up when there's a continuous doorbell outside. He groaned and gently unwrapped his arms from her and put his robe on.

His eyes were fierce, more like murderous when he opened the door. But his father was smiling even though he was in a different aura.

"You know that it's quite late and dinner will be ready in twenty minutes. Chop-chop!" He waved, still with a smile plastered on his face. Odd. Just why would his father keep smiling like that? Truth was, he never saw him smiling like that besides the time that he met Keira for the first time back when they were young.

He closed the door and approached the bed. He gently shook her and kissed her top head.

"Love,"

"Hmm,"

"Dinner. We have to attend dinner."

"I feel drowsy." She mumbled. "Go. I don't want to eat dinner."

"Love, please. Dad just knocked on the door."

"Ugh," She sat up like a zombie and rubbed her eyes.

They are wearing a matching color outfit. Making them look like a perfect couple. She doesn't look hungry at the moment but when they sit down her eyes widen at the famishing foods. Alessandro made sure that she ate everything on the table.

"I thought you don't have an appetite?" Alessandro teased. He was making everyone awkward with their constant display of affection. But there's one person who doesn't feel awkward, it's Alexander who admired them more.

The couple ate and it seemed like they didn't care about the people around them. Margarette even called them self-centered. But for Alessandro, it's because they don't like his wife and that's why he's giving all of his attention to her so she won't feel left out. With his actions, it's them who seemed to be out of place.

Even after dinner, they went out to admire the city at night. The couple was intertwined while enjoying a dessert from the parlors in the shops that they bought.

"Are you enjoying it?" He asked while the others let them be. Bodyguards were tagging along with them for their safety.

"Do you want to go to some bar?" Alessandro asked.

"Hmm, what are you going to do there?"

"I don't know." He shrugged. "You haven't been in the bar, right?"

"No."

"Then, let's go there!" I insisted. "But don't worry, I keep my hands on you."

"Uh~~ I rather stay in the room~~"

"We are in Malaysia! We should enjoy our honeymoon rather than staying in the room."

"Isn't it what you want?" She giggled. "Staying in the room and doing various things?"

He laughed and nodded.

"Yes, but we need some walking exercise and I want to see you dance." He winked. She giggled and lifted his right hand that was holding her left hand as she lifted it and twirled. He held her waist and kissed her top head.

Never did they know that someone was watching them from afar. A woman, full of anger in her heart, willing to kill one more time again.

They entered the bar and their bodyguards tag along. She cringed on the smell and the crazy sound of music. But still, it's music and it's a bar full of different people, smoking and speaking at each other. People are dancing and flirting and on the dance floor are waves of bodies. He put his arms over her shoulder as they went on the bar counter in front of the bartender. He spoke in their language as the man bowed his head. Then, he gave them a fishbowl, vodka mixed with cotton candy with blue color and red color. And it has two straws on it.

"Wow," She mumbled. "It's icy…"

"Yes, it is."

He sipped on it as she bent down and take a sip. She hummed and nodded her head. They finished their drink slowly that he even ordered cashews. Then, they went to the dance floor as Alessandra twirl her around and they dance goofily.

At the moment, Alessandro wanted that happiness to last long. She looked carefree and cheerful. He knew that she wasted her youth by working and studying. She never enjoyed such a thing like this. Unlike him. In his college time, he could sneak in and out in the bar and let the woman tripped in front of him, showing their cleavage. He was in pain for years. He thought that leaving was her way to break up with him. But he has no idea what she's been going through.

"I think I'm tired." She giggled. He pulled her into his arms and gently pressed his lips to her top head.

"How about a drink?" He asked as she looked up at him. She smiled as the sun shone brightly in this dark club. She seemed to give life to everything around. Just like before. His wife, his first love.

"Okay, don't get me drunk and take advantage of me, okay?"

He laughed boyishly as he patted her head. They went back to the bar and he ordered her a shot and made her drink it. She drank it in one go and winced. He laughed and patted her head. At twelve, they got out of the bar and she seemed to be already drunk. But she mumbled something that he wanted to hear.

"It's fun." She said. "We should do it again."

"Sure. Let's do it in some other place…" he kissed her forehead while carrying her.

"It's the first time that I had fun like that. Besides playing the cello."

"Oh, don't tell me that you'll take clubbing as part of your hobby."

"Of course not. I won't go clubbing without you." She wrapped her arms around him.

"Yes, of course. I will forbid that."

They went straight to making love when they reached their suit. He couldn't hold himself around her. She just smelled so good despite the bad mixed smell inside the bar. And this time, she was moaning and crying out his name as her fingers scratched at his back. She even asked him for more and he became aggressive but both of them ended up in the heaven of pleasure.

He mumbled his love for her and she seemed to be slowly sleeping. Still, he's not done. He wanted more. So, he took her to the bathroom and bath together. Alessandro wanted their honeymoon to be extra special. He wanted it to last long since he knew that once they go back to the Philippines, he has to eventually hold himself. Both of them will come home, tired from work. They might not be able to have time for each other.

"Alessandro…" She called. She was sitting on the sink while Alessandro was drying her hair.

"Hmm?"

"You said something a while ago. I didn't catch up."

He smiled and kissed her lips.

"Let's have another round."

She flushed from what he said.

"It's our honeymoon."

"Did you use a condom?"

"Yeah, I thought you were on pills."

"I~~I forgot to purchase pills."

He sighed and nodded.

"Okay, I'll be careful not to break the condom!" He grinned.

"And if you break it?" She raised her brows.

"Then, let's not use any condom at all!"

"You answer so smartly." She mumbled.
