“Sorry, Kaella just called. She said she didn't come home tonight because she was going to stay at a friend's house."

"Friend or lover?"

"Who knows. I don’t ask."

Lexie shrugged nonchalantly, then took her place beside Archer who was busy looking at Rafe with admiration. He was astonished at how quickly Rafe put together the complex puzzles and played the amazing Rubik's Cube.

"Do it again dad, how do I turn all these squares red."

"Take a good look, okay. Rotate right twice, then flip this side so that all the green squares in this row move to the left side, after that slide down these white squares, then rotate the red squares to the right, and you will get all the box on this side is red.”

"That is cool! Daddy's great."

Lexie smiled gently at his son who admired his father so much. It seemed like Rafe would become a figure that Archer admired from now on.

"I didn't know you could play these tricky games?"

"Yo

    "Good afternoon Ms. Ana, I've come to pick up Archer." Lexie stepped into the day care lobby with a cheerful face. She purposely picked up Archer an hour earlier than his schedule because today she was going to take Archer to buy his favorite ice cream. These days she couldn't concentrate on her lectures in class because she kept thinking about Archer and her guilt. It wasn't Archer's fault at all. She shouldn't have scolded Archer for her annoyance at Rafe. She really is a bad mother for taking her anger out on her adorable son. "Good afternoon. You came to pick up Archer?” "I'm too early. I know it." Lexie smiled shyly. “Today I want to take Archer out to buy his favorite ice cream. Where is Archer now?” Lexie had been sticking her head out ever since to look for Archer among his friends who were playing lego in the playroom. But she couldn't find Archer there at all. Maybe he was going to the bathroom with another nanny. “Today Archer has been pick

    “What have you done, damn it? Let Lexie and Archer live in peace. You ruined them." “Hmm… who's in charge now, Rafe? I'm sick of seeing you go limp and weak to them. Archer is part of my deal with Lexie. You shouldn't have interfered." Xena took a sip of his wine slowly, looking indifferently at his reflection in the mirror which had a grim expression on it. It wasn't him of course, it was Rafe who was trapped at the bottom of his soul and couldn't escape the trap he set. Rafe was too weak to fight it. And he always will be. “Of course I will interfere. You use my body to torture them. So you deliberately let me take over my body when I suddenly woke up in SC. You let me act naturally to get Lexie to let go of her defenses so you can kidnap Archer?” "You're smarter than I thought. You're getting weaker, Rafe. You love Lexie. That is a big problem between us. Just like when I brought Brittany into our lives, you fell in love with her instead of using h

    The room smelled of citrus and roses again because the owner had occupied the room again. After three years the room was left empty, finally the owner of the room returned to spread the fragrance in the room which usually smelled of carbolic acid. Lexie tried to slowly open her eyes. Something felt like it was binding her so she couldn't move. She blinked her eyes a few times in slow motion to minimize the pain that spread across her face. Like she had just fallen really hard, and her face was the first part of her body to hit something hard. For several excruciating minutes, Lexie tried to gather all her orientations. She opened her eyes wide to find a room with maximum lighting. The ceiling of the room is clean. The temperature in this room is cool and fresh. She saw that nothing had changed from the former room she had left three years ago. And now she was in her bed. Lie on her back with her hands cuffed to the bed. Shit! Lexie cursed softly after she re

    After an overly emotional talk session, Rafe ushered Lexie into Archer's room. She was on the same floor, but in a room slightly further away from Lexie and Rafe's adjoining rooms. The room Archer occupied was a guest room that had been rarely used. Rafe never let a guest stay at his house. Better to rent them a hotel in the city than to take them to his very private territory. "He was cranky last night. Betty told me before I went to your room." "He must have missed me. Kids of Archer's age wouldn't be able to live alone outside the house without a mother figure." "I think so too. But Xena insisted on separating Archer from you. He thought that Archer was the only human on this earth who belonged to him. Xena feels that Archer is genetically similar to him, so Archer won't leave him like the others." “I think Xena is obsessed with being together. He was afraid of being left behind.” Rafe didn't say anything. He pushed open the door to Archer'

    Xena awoke from his slumber, feeling a warm breeze on his neck tickle with pleasure. Lexie was sleeping soundly in his arms. There was no rejection at all from her. No anger or other annoying things. Tonight was just about satisfaction and enjoyment for both of them. They cooperate with each other for the pleasure that rolls around them ferociously. Lexie didn't resist his every touch or anything he did to her. On the other hand, Lexie seemed to really enjoy every touch and shouted his name every time the peak of pleasure came to her. “Xena...” Lexie's soft palm touched his face. Xena kissed it gently as the palms danced around his face. "Why don't you sleep?" “Can't miss this rare moment. You lay quietly next to me, naked, without swearing. What a miracle." Lexie opened her eyes slowly. She looked up to see Xena who was looking down at her. "Is that weird?" "It's a bit strange to me." Xena smirked. He rolled Lexie's body until

    One week went by very quickly. Lexie had no idea that she would still survive in this house without Rafe or Xena. Since that morning, Lexie had not seen Xena again in this house. Some of Rafe's men whom she asked about Rafe's whereabouts told her that Rafe was going abroad for an important job. Don't know what important work it involves. Lexie couldn't contact Xena at all. His cell phone is never active. She had left dozens of messages in his voice mailbox, but none of them were answered. Lexie stretched her sore hands in the air. She had just completed a summary of the new case for Ms. Romanoff. After returning from a vacation to Hawaii, Ms. Romanoff had a long list of jobs to do. It also had an impact on her because she had been very busy lately. Her longing for Rafe/Xena is diverted because she has to do many things remotely from her home. Usually she just does her work from home or from campus, now she has to do all her work from New York. It was a bit of a hassle at fir

    "Wren! I can't believe it's you." Lexie hugged Wren very tightly after she opened the front door wide and told Wren to come in. It's really an unexpected surprise that she can meet Wren who is now super busy. After a week of living in New York, Lexie finally got to meet Wren. "Long time no see and you are getting more beautiful and sexy." Wren chuckled as he patted Lexie's shoulder a few times. God only knows how badly he missed this woman. He had lost track of Lexie ever since Lexie disappeared and Rafe gave him a stern warning not to try to get someone to track her down. "You say I'm sexy? No way. I got fatter after giving birth. Come in." "But you actually look sexier. You used to be so skinny, you know. I prefer your new look." Wren studied Lexie's body from head to toe. Her long hair has now been cut shorter with a very beautiful wavy style at the ends. Lexie gained weight of course because her arms and curves were now more beautiful than

    There are so many things that it can sometimes be confusing to the point of misleading. Some of them sometimes appear in the form of secrets that are difficult to understand. Like Xena and Rafe who are very elusive. Even though they live in the same body, they have two separate elements. Had they come together, the two of them would probably have been a formidable fusion of two elements. It would create a man with the perfect personality. It should be like that. But in reality it is not easy to unite two elements that are already separated.Lexie stood on the balcony alone looking up at the starry night sky. Tonight the air is very warm, suddenly she couldn't sleep because she was thinking about many things. First she thought of Xena who suddenly disappeared without a word. The rest of the day she spent thinking about the man's whereabouts now and the possibility if Xena and Rafe fused into one unified element. It would definitely be great if they could unite to occupy their

    Lexie watched Rafe leave in silence. Guilt gripped her heart because Rafe saw her with Justin. Although it is unlikely that anything will happen between her and Justin, but Rafe seems quite jealous of their closeness. She was just grateful that Xena was sleeping soundly now. She couldn't imagine what would have happened if it had been Xena. "Come on Lexie. We have to hurry because we have wasted quite a bit of time.” Justin led her to the elevator. His arms were still slung over her shoulders and he pressed the lobby button for both of them after the elevator doors closed. "Is he still rude?" "What?" Lexie asked looking up. "Your husband. I used to see you cry because of that man. Is he still as rude as before?” "Sometimes." Lexie answered half dreamily. No marriage is absolutely flawless. There are always fights and arguments in every marriage relationship. Even she couldn't keep herself away from all domestic troubles. Rafe or Xena h

    "Dance with me, lady?"Lexie looked up, left her cherry juice and smiled gently at the man who had just reached out in front of her. She didn't waste the opportunity to dance with this handsome man and took his outstretched hand in front of her face."Of course. It's an amazing party and I can't miss dancing with a guy like you." Lexie smiled gently.The man led her to the center of the ballroom, joining another couple who had already started their dance. His wide palm gripped Lexie's tiny palm which was so soft. He smiled widely at everyone, as if he was celebrating his success in persuading a princess to dance with him."Beautiful music. Thank you for asking me to dance."Lexie pressed herself against the man, holding on to his sturdy shoulders and they began to move in sync with the melodious classical music. The soft violins play beautiful notes with the rest of the orchestra. Lexie closed her eyes while following every movement made by her dan

    Tonight was really fun for Rafe because he was in the midst of a harmonious complete family. There is a father-in-law who is so kind to him, a lover or a future wife or maybe his wife and an adorable son. They had dinner together happily at the dining table. There were loud laughter from his father-in-law and spoiled whimpers from Archer if Lexie started forbidding him to do this and that. Everything seemed so good to Rafe that he was reluctant to return to his miserable life in New York. If he could, he wanted to be in the midst of this family forever. And in order to make his wish come true, he needed to improve the conditions between himself and Lexie. He needed to make it clear to Lexie that he wanted a complete family and didn't want to live apart like he used to. “Archer is asleep?” Rafe deliberately waited for Lexie in front of her bedroom. Tonight he was supposed to sleep in Kaella's room, but he hadn't been in Kaella’s room since then and had just stood by t

    Fifteen minutes later they arrived at Lexie's beautiful two-story house filled with various kinds of plants in the front yard. Rafe was almost surprised to see so much change in the house. The last time he came here, the house had no woody trees. But now the front of Lexie's house was filled with giant pots filled with woody trees that were struggling to grow into giant-sturdy trees. The flowers that were once only planted in two small pots, have grown into a bunch of colorful flowers that have been transplanted into the ground. "There have been a lot of changes in this house." “My father used the garden next to the house as a garage because it wasn't safe to park the car just on the side of the road. Sometimes there are naughty children who scribble on the car body with spray paint. Some time ago our neighbor was screaming hysterically because his Mercedes Benz had been scribbled with a series of obscene swear words.” “Your father has done the right thing as

    Rafe stepped off the plane and was greeted by a light drizzle in late summer. The soothing scent of wet earth relaxes him for a moment. A little man who will be his driver today to go to Lexie's house has just opened an umbrella near the plane steps, getting ready to umbrella him. Rafe actually had absolutely no problem walking in the rain. This is really refreshing and can wash away a little bit of his anxiety that is thickening more and more. "Thank you. Before we go to Lexie's house, I will pick up my son at his day care. He'll be home in thirty minutes." The man nodded after handing the umbrella handle to him. Rafe walked slowly behind the man to his car which was parked near the hangar. He inhaled strongly the scent of summer which was about to fade and be replaced by the cold, gray scent of autumn. Time flies so fast, and he hasn't been able to summon Xena back so he can surface like he used to. "Please come in, sir." The man grabbed the handle

    Lexie stepped aside for a moment from the commotion of the bridal shower which was really noisy and excited. Tomorrow morning Kaella will marry her lover, and today will be her last day as a single. So everyone was excited to have a party in one of the finest suits at a five-star hotel in Charleston. Her cell phone has been ringing loudly ever since. She had ignored the call because she was pinning the crown for the bride-to-be and taking pictures with the rest of Kaella's friends. Now she would pick up Rafe's call and talk to him because Rafe must have called her for something important. “Hi Honey, sorry for not picking up your call. I was at Kaella's bridal shower. It's very noisy in here. Tomorrow you will come to her wedding right?” Lexie finally found a comfortable and quiet place to talk to Rafe. While everyone was partying like crazy in Kaella's suit room. She has a balcony which is very quiet and with a beautiful view of the city of Charleston. Folly Beach wa

    Xena looked to the side, at the statue of the cross that soared up to the church ceiling. He imagined the look on his face that looked ridiculous as he said those bullshit words. There is no love in his heart. It should be like that. But strangely he felt love when he was with Lexie. At first he felt loved, and more and more he felt like loving. It was the most complicated reciprocal relationship he had ever experienced. His week-long trip to Chicago wasn't strictly business. He purposely distanced himself from Lexie to reflect on all this. Does he really love Lexie? Did he really want to be with Lexie forever? And after a week of excruciating contemplation, he finally came to the one answer that he wanted all of that. He wanted to love Lexie, he wanted to be with Lexie, and he wanted to make Lexie happy. Unfortunately this body does not belong to him. He couldn't be selfish by removing Rafe forever from this body. And he had to do something to fix all of this."Xena... are y
