Chapter 13: 13. Messed-up n


    The heat in William’s room began to cool. Pa leaned against William’s sturdy shoulder. She fiddled with her husband’s chest because she didn’t know what to do. The unpleasant incident that she had just experienced made her rethink his reckless decision.


    “Why did you cancel the contract with Martin?” asked Pa with a slightly disappointed look on her face. “He is a jerk, but his money is the matter.”


    William inhaled the sweet scent of her hair and replied, “I don’t want to do business with a bastard who almost touches my wife. Where is my dignity as a husband?”


    “But he didn’t do it, William! Where else are you going to find a filthy rich client like him shortly?” Pa was still in denial, making William bbergasted.


    “Seriously, are you okay with that? Because I am not,” William eximed. “This time he didn’t do it. How aboutter?”


    William still felt sorry for wasting time with a dirty man like Martin. It was better for him to lose a client like Martin than to risk his wife’s safety.


    “What kind of man wants his wife to be touched by another man? If any, it wouldn’t be me!” William added again in a nd voice, ring at Pa. Their eyes met as their heart clenched for unknown reasons.


    .....


    Pa’s heart skipped a beat. She knew William was only doing this to fulfill his duty as a husband. However, she couldn’t fight the strange feeling welling up inside her stomach at this moment. She was afraid that her feelings toward him started to grow.


    Pa realized that she had to keep her promise about a rtionship that didn’t involve feelings between them. She cleared her throat a little loudly and pulled away from William’s arms. Her face was troubled and uneasy, making William mistakenly take that as a disappointment.


    “Pa, I’m sorry! I didn’t mean to waste your efforts,” William said as he stopped Pa from getting out of bed. However, she just stared at him without any exnation and let her husband misunderstand. She quickly left him and went to the bathroom to clean up.


    “Pa!” William kept calling in a pitiful tone, making Pa’s heart feel even tighter.


    Pa let the hot water touch her body. It made her head rx a bit. Brushing her dark thought, she shook her head as she said, “This must be just a fleeting feeling. I can’t have feelings for him.”


    The water gushing from the shower again caressed Pa’s white skin, which was smooth as porcin. Little by little, she powered up the water jet, trying to get rid of the feeling of his touches on her body.


    A fatal error urred. William’s sneaky fingers didn’t only touch her skin but also prated her heart.


    ***


    William thought Pa was still angry with him. He tried to win Pa’s heart by making a special breakfast this morning. His signature chocte pancake was always praised by his friends-and also Lea.


    The smell of choctebined with butter made Pa’s nostrils couldn’t help but tingling. Her rumbling stomach demanded to be treated immediately. Although she was already dressed up and was about to go to the office, she couldn’t helping to the kitchen.


    She didn’t intend to have breakfast at home. She didn’t even want to spend any more time with William, knowing that her defenses were currently weak. To make matters worse, all her ns were about to fail miserably. But, her determination was only redeemed cheaply by a pile of chocte pancakes topped with chocte, cheese, and butter served on the dining table. Tempting.


    Pa gulped, seeing the dazzling sight before her eyes. Not only did the pancakes look tempting, but the cook who served them also looked even more edible because he was on his knee-length training pants, hanging too low around his waist.


    So sexy! Super-duper sexy!


    William who saw Pa’s reaction smiled triumphantly. “Look, stop sulking! Have breakfast while the pancakes are still warm!” William’s palms spread, showing his masterpiece.


    Surely, Pa could no longer stand the sinful temptation anymore. However, a sense of prestige held her back. Finally, William pulled her to a chair and sat her ass down. Meanwhile, He took a fork for her, cut the pancake, and tried to shove a slice of the calorie-filled fluffy stuff into her mouth.


    “Aaaa ...,” William asked her to open her mouth as if he was feeding a toddler.


    “Ugh, what the hell!” Pa was annoyed, pping William’s bare chest with her handbag.


    “I don’t know if you hesitate to eat it because you are still mad at me or because you are afraid of getting fat. However, if the reason is because of calories, I will dly drain it after you finish this breakfast,” William whispered with darkening eyes gazing intently at her.


    Pa’s face heated up. She reached for the te of pancakes, pulled it closer, and ate it greedily. “Who said I was afraid of getting fat?” She pursed her lips, making him realize her cuteness. Moreover, her flushed cheeks made him feel excited. No wonder he got a boner by the sight.


    A strange feeling crept into William’s heart, making him want to im her again immediately. However, he restrained himself knowing that his wish this time was a little bit out of control.


    William stood up and took his te, apanying her to eat. He stole nces at Pa, who seemedcent with the taste of the pancakes, although she looked sad now and then.


    “Pa, don’t worry too much. I’ll catch another big fish. I promise!” said William trying to calm her, even though he didn’t have a well-nned project in hand.


    Pa replied with a sincere smile. She was happy that William seemed more independent and optimistic than before.


    “The pancakes are so delicious. Thanks! These are the best pancakes I’ve ever eaten!” Pa said after chewing thest bite. Then, she finished her milk in just a few gulps.


    “Oh, is it that good?” William asked teasingly. “Maybe that’s because you eat while looking at me, no?”


    Pa choked at William’s words. “Oh, please! It’s cheesy andme,” she said,ughing.


    Seeing Pa’s face which was slightly covered in milk and chocte like a kid, William couldn’t stand his urge to clean it up with his lips-no-he used his hand instead. However, Pa was taken aback and inched backward.


    “What do you want?” Pa startled. Her chest was pounding. It’s strange because they’ve done much more than this.


    “I just want to clean your face!” Without her consent, he immediately licked Pa’s cheeks and lips to clean them up. However, Pa shoved William’s chest away.


    Feeling Rejected, William thought that his efforts were still not enough to make her feel good. Then the brown-haired handsome man pulled his wife and lifted her body, carrying her-bridal style-to the room.


    He was determined to make her feel this morning was a spectacr one. Then, he did many things he had never done with her. He was going to do all his sex fantasies this morning because she was also into it either.


    That day, they ended up staying at home all day long. Both of them enjoyed the day with different motivations. William wanted to make Pa happy, while Pa wanted to enjoy herst time with William to the fullest before their divorce. Soon, she had to return her husband to Lea.


    “Will, did you tell Lea about your current condition?” suddenly, Pa asked her husband.


    “I did. Why?”


    “Is she okay?”


    “Of course-not.”


    Guilt clouded Pa’s heart. “Try to win her heart, Will. I am sure she will understand. She has a mom, and her mom is also sick. I think she willpromise with your difficult situation.”


    Smiling lightly, William poked Pa’s nose. “I will try. Thanks, Pa! I appreciate your support. But, please, don’t talk about it right now because I wanna do you again.”


    “Oh, you are insatiable!”


    “Shut up and let’s do it!”
