(Sky’s POV)My forehead creased as I entered the bedroom, and I tilted my head, thinking whether I should ask Elenita to put a trampoline in the bedroom. Three girls were jumping on the bed while singing the Five Little Monkeys song, while Nitro barked with them whenever her body would lift.Their mother glanced at me, half-smiling as she looked at our children jumping and singing happily.“Sugar rush,” She mouthed.She breathed out when Leyanne finally stopped because our eldest seemed to be their signal when the two also halted and sat, but no one ran to me.I knew their day had been exhausting, but the sugar seemed to have worked on their little bodies, giving them lots of energy for tonight. “Mommy, is it the later time with Daddy?” asked Leyanne, who was still panting from jumping.My eyebrows raised because I had no idea what it was about.Angela made a swift look at me and nodded. “He’s here now, so I guess it’s the later time,” she said, sitting on the edge of the bed.I sat
(Sky’s POV)I didn’t know if I woke up or didn’t get a wink, but when I opened my eyes, Angela and the kids were still sleeping. I couldn’t believe Angela would be such a tease that after those searing kisses, she pushed me away and hid in the bathroom with the spare key with her. When she came out, Selene was already crying, looking for her mother and wondering why it was me beside her, not her beloved mother. Before getting up, I kissed my kids, but Leyanne, perhaps a light sleeper among them, opened her eyes.“Daddy,” she whispered, maybe checking if she was dreaming or not.“Yes, baby?” I uttered in a low voice, glancing at my still sleeping family.She smiled at me. “I love you, Daddy.”Her smile, words, and eyes, same as their mother’s, melted my heart. “I love you, too, Leyanne.”My daughter closed her eyes again, rolling to her slide, her arm stretching to reach Selene’s hand. I walked slowly, not wanting to disturb their sleep.After Aunt Eden suddenly popped up the other n
(Sky’s POV)“Good morning, Anj,” greeted Frank when she entered the study room.She smiled and raised her hand, showing Frank the car key she used to drive the children to school. Despite my offer to let the driver do it, she shook her head, explaining that it would only scare the children.“Where’s Sky?” she asked.Angela raised her eyebrows when she saw the folders on my table. I almost guffawed when she peeked to see if someone was sitting on my chair. I got up from the chair and took her hands, pulling her to me and wrapping her arms to my waist.“That busy?” She was still looking at the folders.“Nope. You are, Ms. Perry,” I said, kissing her forehead and taking one folder. “Frank, leave us for a while and make sure to lock the door when you go out.”“I’m going to the office, taking more folders from Catherine,” he informed me. “Should I tell Elenita to tell the maids this is an off-limit room?” he teased Angela when she turned her head to him.“Yes, please,” I smiled and waited
(Anj’s POV)A cluster of clouds covered the perfect blue sky, and the wind kissing my skin promised a heavy rain later. As I sat on the wooden bench, facing the manmade river by the park, I realized how time had changed this place since Dylan, Anya, and I would go here after school. When Dylan told me we would talk here, only now that I had thought of bringing the kids here. They would be excited to hear stories about why we usually stay here and how our friendship bloomed like the flowers in the park.My eyebrows raised as Dylan sat beside me and gave me the paper bucket of Chinese food he had ordered for us. “And?” I asked him. He hadn’t said anything yet, but he knew what I was talking about.“You, first. How are you after yesterday? It was one hell of a day experiencing everything at once as if the ‘divine agency’ was in a hurry to end your life,” he said as he gave me chopsticks.My mouth made a downturn shape. “I guess I was too confident telling Sky I wanted the position. You
(Anj’s POV)Frank glanced at me and his wristwatch when I yawned. I was on the couch, and the documents Sky asked me to study were piled on the center table, making it easier for me to take one folder while sitting. When I returned, the folders were no longer on his table but piled and carefully labeled according to year and title.I was just beginning, but I already felt tired even though I had taken an hour nap with the children. Maybe it was the time I spent reading with Steve or the playtime with the girls before going to bed which exhausted me.When Elenita told me Sky was still working, I went to the study room and found him reading a report Catherine had sent him. “You looked tired already, Anj. Why don’t you take a rest? Just so you know, I have no plans of taking these files with me,” teased Frank as he got ready to leave.I chuckled. “I’ll wait for the boss.” I puckered my lips, pointing at Sky. “He might need something.”“That man doesn’t sleep, Anj.” He half-smiled and l
(Anj’s POV)I chuckled, wishing Sky would let go of me so I could see his face. “Yes, but I told you I won’t beg, right?”He sat on the couch and sat me on his lap, but not facing him. He wrapped his arms around my body and planted a kiss on my nape. My body shivered from his kiss. “Can you reach that folder for me?” He said, pointing at the blue folder Frank placed on the table before he left.I leaned forward to reach the folder, but I smiled when I felt his manhood getting hard again, and as I sat back, I moaned when his member penetrated slowly inside me again.“Open it, pumpkin,” He confused me. Which one? The folder or my legs?“You’re adorable, Sky,” I said, hissing at the delicious feeling and finding the pleasure as I moved my hips slowly up and down. “Which one?” I voiced out my thoughts. “This folder or my legs?”His hands grazed on the skin of my arms and the tips of his fingers, reaching and touching the stiffed peaks of my breasts. It was making me crazy.“Don’t drop t
(Anj’s POV)When my eyelids opened, I was surprised to be alone in the bed. I groaned, feeling my entire body sore from last night. Smiling, I got up and had a long bath before leaving the bedroom and looking for my children.I found them in the family room, sitting on the couch as if they were adults talking about the Insects documentary they were watching on the TV.“Good morning!” I sat on the couch and embraced my girls, but I could not help noticing the name tags pinned on their clothes. “Hmm… What’s with the name tags?”“You don’t expect me to know your girls’ names right away, Angela,” answered Elenita, coming to the room with another maid, bringing sandwiches and milk. “Here’s for Leyanne, Lyra Helene, and Selene.”I pursed my lips, raising my eyebrows at my daughters. “Girls,” I shook my head, showing them it was not good to confuse other people.“Sorry, Mommy. Sorry, Elenita,” Leyanne giggled, taking off the ‘Selene’ name tag on her shirt. The others followed, putting on the
(Anj’s POV)“Why can’t we go with you?” I asked again, following him in his seat, looking like my daughters wanting to get an answer from him right away.After I ignored Anya and Dylan, as if wanting to give me privacy but couldn’t leave, they went to the farthest part of the study room and pretended to be busy talking about the books stacked on the shelves.“Because this isn’t a leisure trip, Anj,” he answered without looking at me. “Frank, email me the file,” he said to his secretary.“Sure,” I heard him answer.I turned my back on him, not wanting to sound like a nagging wife, and returned to my seat and read the next part of my readings. If this business trip has something to do with the recalled automotive products, it would mean Leonard Johnsons would be there, and Steve told me last night in passing that Lalaine would sometimes represent her father in the meetings. Lalaine and Sky.My eyes darted to Sky, giving him a dagger look as jealousy hit me, but when he turned in my dir
