"Do you really need to answer the call while we're making love?" She mumbled while sitting on top of him. She leaned her body down and nuzzled her face on the crook of his neck. 

He hugged her gently and after a few minutes of rest, he moved on top of her. He caressed her cheeks and she just smiled softly at him, tilting her head to the side as he trailed her skin with kisses. She closed her eyes when he started moving between her legs. Pressing her fingertips against his bare back, her body trembled in pleasure while moaning softly. 

"Hubby, I have classes later at ten.." She mumbled. He nodded while leaving marks on her chest. 

The sun was already up when Fuyu woke up. She looked at the clock and saw that it was already eight. She still has two hours to prepare and go to university. With that five hours of sleep, she is still feeling tired. Her body is a little sore but she managed to get up from the bed and make breakfast and lunch. 

Since Sho is still asleep, she left a note on the fridge before going to university. She smiled faintly when she saw her new friends waiting for her in the hallways. She felt an arm around her shoulders and saw that it was one of her male friends. She shrugged his arm off and clung on their female friend instead. She already told them that she is taken but this guy is persistent. 

"Will you go on a date with me this time?" The guy asked and she shook her head. She doesn't know how many times she will need to remind him that she is already taken. 

"Sho will be here later. We will have a date." She bit her lips, knowing that it might not happen since he will be busy with his painting. 

She got her phone from her bag's pocket and looked to see if she got a message from him. She smiled widely when she saw one. She opened it and quickly sent him a reply. She received another message but this time, it's from her twin brother. He is asking if she is studying properly. She puffed her cheeks and placed her phone back in her bag instead. 

While on their way to the classroom, she heard from the other students that there's a new professor but in another department. She was about to ignore the news when she suddenly saw a familiar figure coming in her direction. She raised a brow and crossed her arms when she saw his beloved twin brother. Most of the students knew him, so she heard some squeals at the side. 

"Why are you here?" She asked and she already went inside the classroom to put her bag down. Makoto followed her and took the seat beside her, which is the persistent guy's seat. 

"I'll be here as a temporary professor. Just for four months. The fashion school sent me here. How are you and Sho-san?" He asked but he noticed the guy beside her. 

"We're fine. He's at home. He's busy with his paintings." A tint of red appeared on her cheeks when she suddenly remembered that they stayed up the whole night just to make love. 

"Did he already tell you that he will start teaching here next week?" She quickly looked at her twin brother and shook her head. 

"Perhaps, he's not yet opening his emails. I was informed a while ago that they got him as a contractual professor. He will teach Arts here for a year." She smiled widely at that good news. 

"Where will you stay though? You got an apartment?" She asked. He nodded and stood up already. 

"The fashion school prepared an apartment for me. If you want to sleep over, just tell me. I'll go now. My class will start soon." He waved his hand before leaving and she just pouted while nodding. 

Meanwhile in Jung Regency, Gia almost threw her designer's shoulder bag to the floor as she just arrived from the office. She is having a bad day due a canceled project. She has been working on that project three months ago and it will just get canceled because of just one mistake. The head maid greeted her and she gave her bag to her. 

"Prepare a rose bath for me. No one should interrupt me while I'm taking a bath." She ordered and the head maid immediately answered. 

"Also, if ever a man named Aoyama Riku will go here, tell him that he is banned in my life." She has been suppressing her anger since then. 

Who would have thought that her mistake would lead her to that matter? She should have not talked to Riku that time. Her mistake is talking to him. She learned from him that the shareholder who engaged in that project is cheating on his wife. She has a strong sense of morality and she will never accept someone like that in her firm. After that, she canceled the project and almost hundreds of workers will not be able to have a salary for a month. She must think of another project and by next week, it should be launched already. 

She knows she should not meddle with the shareholders' personal businesses but if his infidelity will turn out as an issue, it will affect the firm's credibility. People will think that it is fine for their firm to have a shareholder who is cheating on his wife. It will affect the firm in some aspects. 

The head maid prepared her rose bath and she went to her room first to check some files. When the head maid informed her that the bath was ready, she got up from her seat and went to the bathroom. She was about to take her clothes off but she heard a knock from outside. When she opened the door, she was surprised that Riku was there, looking so serious. She bit her lips lightly and decided to close the door without speaking to him but before she could even do that, he already walked inside and locked the door. 

"What are you—" She protested and suddenly, he pushed her gently to the wall and kissed her lips deeply. 

He caged her in his arms and pressed their bodies together. Knowing that she would struggle, he slid his fingers between hers and held her hands tightly. She shut her eyes and moved her head from side to side to break the kiss and when she succeeded, she felt his lips against her neck instead. Her breathing was a little shaky and she gasped softly when he started unbuttoning her shirt. 

Sometimes, she is thinking why is she always ending up in his arms and most of all, how come he got this dominating presence towards her and she will automatically surrender herself to him? She found herself inside the tub and resting her body against his. It was their second time to do it and this time, all she felt was pleasure. She slowly closed her eyes when he started leaving little kisses on her crown and temples. Those kinds of kisses are giving her butterflies in her stomach. 

"I told the head maid that you're banned here. How come you were still able to get inside?" She mumbled. He chuckled softly and tightened his hug around her. 

"I talked to your father instead. He even invited me for dinner." She shifted her position and looked at him. She can't believe that this guy is this persistent. She is now wondering where he got the confidence to take her body in her own territory?
