“Hey, baby. Don’t scare me like this!” Shane exclaimed with panic in his voice. He took Audrey in his arms and rushed her outside the building. He was careful in holding her as he walked towards his car parked a few meters away from the restaurant.

‘Wow. I don’t know if he’s aware I’m faking it, or that he really thought I fainted,’ Audrey thought. She slightly opened her eyes to take a peek at the actor whose face was filled with concern.

The sound of the car door opening made her closed her eyes tightly. Her back landed on the soft seat, and she felt him fixing buckling the seat belt on her. When she heard the door closed, she opened her eyes and saw Shane outside… with Nathan.

“What happened to her?” The blond asked Shane while trying to wa

    “Thank you for tonight,” the staff said in a chorus before leaving for their homes. Nathan smiled at them and close the door when they were gone.“Take a seat,” he told the woman who was standing silently in the corner. Nathan was worried about Audrey but Francesca’s presence put him in no position to tend his boss, especially when Shane was also there to snatch his chance away. “Perché sei qui? (Why are you here?)” He asked her when the blonde settled down. He sat on a chair across her.“Per parlare con te (To talk to you),” Francesca replied while bowing her head. She looked pale and sickly which he didn’t notice until the other guy told him.If it were five years ago, Nathan would have been jumping in joy to see her but a lot of things happ

The lights were still on and the young miss felt bad for any housemaids who had to stay up to make them wait for them to come back. She sighed which caught Shane’s attention, so he gave her a reassuring look although she wasn’t saying anything.“Are you worried about someone else while I’m here with you right now?” He asked her while parking his car in the garage.She only smiled a little at him while waving her hands ‘no’. She admitted that she was glad about his behavior though it might be silly of her to think it was sweet when he minded those trivial things especially when it concerns someone of the opposite sex.Audrey didn’t have her purse with her but her semi-broken phone she had in her p

    The trip to Nathan’s place was quiet. Francesca dare not to talk about anything while inside the car and the man was glad about it. He didn’t like the idea of letting his ex-lover to his apartment, but he already agreed to talk with her, and going back to his words was not his thing.“Entra (Come in),” Nathan invited the woman when he opened the door to his flat. It was clean as usual and no speck of dust could be seen.“Hai un bel posto (You have a nice place),” Francesca commented as she roamed her eyes around. A smile appeared on her lips while she reminisced some memories of the time she shared with the man who was now cold towards her.“Grazie.

    Sweet, feathery kisses fluttered on Audrey’s cheeks and all around her face. She smiled with her eyes closed and let the kissing monster continue. The scene she could only imagine for years had finally come alive. Like a princess in a fairy tale awakened by her prince’s true love’s kiss, Audrey slowly opened her eyes.“Good morning, baby,” Shane whispered to her ear. His breath tickled her skin and he knew it. He nibbled her ear. “How’s your sleep?”“It was great,” Audrey answered. She pulled his face in front of her and gave him a peck. “Good morning,” she greeted back. She was sleeping like a log last night while the man was wrapping her with his legs and arm. Audrey never felt so comfortable despite the occasional pain she had in her back and neck.“Breakfast should be ready. Let’s go downstairs after washing up,” Shane said and got on his feet. He offered his hand to help her up. “You want me to carry you to the bathroom?”She laughed at his remark. “No, I can still walk. Don’t tre

His voice was firm and it was undeniable how much he was trying to keep his cool.“Shane, I am your manager and I would no--” Lucy’s speech was cut off when the man raised his voice for the second time.“Tell me if it's you or not.

It made her realized one thing, sadness always accompanied happiness and the two of them were never separated from each other.“Miss, Madam is on the phone and would like to speak with you.” It was the housekeeper’s voice.“All right. Give me a sec,” Audrey replied and carefully wiped her face.

She felt his chin on her right shoulder and his breath was fanning her neck. Audrey bit her lower lip to resist laughing due to the unbearable tickling sensation.“You smell so nice,” Shane whispered and nibbled on her ear. The gesture made her gasped which caused the other to smirk. “Why are you frowning, baby?” He asked her while rubbing the tip of his nose on her nape.“Hmm…” Audrey let out a moan when Shane planted small and soft kisses on her skin. “Shane… let me go,” she mumbled but couldn’t manage to struggle a little to support what she said.

    “Are we there yet?” Audrey asked while being guided by Shane somewhere outside the house. The actor came back in the evening with a bright face.

If was born with a talented hand, he could have already drawn her cartoon version with the smoke-like effect coming out from her nostrils.

    An awkward silence filled the car while Shane was driving home. He would throw glances at Audrey who kept wearing a serious face that terrified the other. The trip was long and the actor wished he could make the car sprint to the villa just so to avoid Audrey’s occasionally cold gazes. After what happened back in the restaurant, Shane suddenly felt intimidated. Why not? Audrey effortlessly beat him almost to a pulp. If not for Nathan and Francesca’s interruption, pulling Audrey away from him, the actor would be less than admirable with his bruises. Well, he didn’t blame Audrey a bit. He was aware of her ‘violent’ side beforehand. After all, he earned a kiss from her in advance.

    It had been a month since the last time Audrey saw Shane in person. She was missing him so much though she couldn’t lift her phone to dial his number nor compose a message. Her long face became her everyday mask. The staff in the restaurant were never tired of cheering her on. Not that she wanted to worry them, she could still do what she had to. And her current situation was something she had to face alone. She decided to trust Shane and while she was at it, Audrey thought it would be wiser not to bother the actor in the meantime.
