The phone line ends, leaving me torn and anxious about what to do next and I get too occupied that I do not expect the knock that comes to my door, causing me to jump, a bit startled almost immediately.

An unpleasant feeling coils in my stomach as I debate whether to open the door for the stranger sent here by Keenan to pick me up.

‘What if Keenan's aim is to get you killed?!' my pessimistic mind yells at me. ‘That way, he won't have to go through the trouble of divorce. What then?'

I won't say he's not that kind of person, because he's a man in love and people who are in love sometimes do crazy things like getting rid of anyone in the way of their happiness. I've seen how Keenan acts out when Taylor is discussion, and I know his love for that woman is too deep and he'll move every mountain if it'll help him get to her.

I'm the number one person in the way of that. And never has my l

It has been a week since we began living together. Mentally feels like it's more than a year already, as the days past have been the longest I've been in. It's been long. I'd say sixty-two hours a day felt more accurate.

In the past week, Keenan had taken it upon himself to make us anything but close. He's hired three maids, one of which is my helper and he said that like I was an invalid, two professional chefs, three gardeners, two drivers and four security men. He never for once did he ask for my consent to everything he did, well at first I didn't want to give him any advice, but he didn't listen when I tried to later on.

He banned me from coming to the office, which is understandable because I hate the whole idea of working under my husband. But not only did he ban me from coming to the office, he also banned me from looking for another job and when I tried arguing with him, he to

'I'm so glad you're okay, babe," he mumbles into my hair and hugs me harder. There is so much comfort warm in his arm.

I chuckle happily, and hug him tightly as well 'Me too Levi, me too." I reply, my hands rubbing his back slowly and he seems to relax even more at my touch.

It's been under twenty-four hours since we last saw each other and it already feels like forever and I don't want to lose it again.

He let go of me and takes my lips into his and kisses me deeply and desperately, and I kiss back giving as much as I am receiving. I wrap my arms around his neck and pulling him even closer to me. His arms pull me tighter against his body and I lean more into him as I let him take control of the kiss, accepting his tongue into my mouth.

We pull away, trying to catch our breaths, and I bite down slowly on my lips, trying to control the feelings running through me as my eyes open to lo
