Chapter 299: Call at midnight

Rachel and Daniel lay next to each other, their bodies spent and sweaty. They were breathing heavily as they tried to come down from the high they had just reached. The sex was just too amazing for them that they did not have any words to describe it. It might be so as they were doing it with their loved ones. 

Rachel snuggled closer to Danny as she ran her hands over his bare torso. Unable to control herself, she kissed his neck before she lied to beside him. Daniel, whose body had calmed down after a long time, stiffened once again and his body started to react actively.

"Are you trying to entice me, honey?" He asked with a hoarse voice, his eyes darkening every second.

"Not at all. I am clearly innocent here." Rachel replied with an innocent expression. However, her look screamed that she was anything but innocent. Her eyes were sparkling in mischief and Daniel did not have to guess what she was trying to do. She was clearly testing his limits.

"I think you want to go for another round. If so, you should have just told me. I will never say no to you." With that, he immediately shifted his body and went on top of her as he caressed her cheek slowly and lovingly.

"What are you talking about? I don't understand." Rachel tried to feign ignorance, but her eyes gave away.

"Acting ignorant is not going to help you this time. You will only entice me more and this time, I'll make sure you will not try to come up with new tricks anymore." Not allowing the woman under him to speak any further or to object, Daniel kissed her fervently and their heated session started once again. Rachel did not even have the time to protest as Daniel had possessed her mind and body once again and she was dragged away into the storm.

It was only an hour after midnight did Daniel take pity on the woman who was thoroughly drained and allowed her to rest. Rachel was too exhausted even to move her body and she just cuddled the man beside her and drifted off to sleep. Seeing her adorable face, the thoroughly satisfied man kissed her forehead before he got off the bed and took a bath to clean himself. He then brought a wet towel and wiped his sleeping beauty clean.

Daniel was just about to lie down beside her when he received a call from prison. He was flabbergasted to see get a call at this time of the night and more so seeing the person who was contacting him. He took a look at Rachel who was still sleeping, completely oblivious to the phone call. Not wanting to disturb her, he went towards the window and answered the call.

It was a call from the prison where his uncle, Jack was being detained. He was the same man who had tried to attack him in his own office and sow discord between Daniel and his parents. But to Daniel, he was the man who showed him the truth about him being an orphan and it was due to him that he found out how much his parents loved him. 

He wondered why the warden was calling him when he was completely unrelated to him. The man was nothing but a criminal in his eyes and was not even worth living. But what he heard stunned him. He did not know that the man wanted to meet him and had created huge chaos in the prison, in the middle of the night by threatening to kill himself using the knife he got from god knows where if he did not meet his nephew.

Having no other choice, the prison warden had asked permission from the higher authorities and had called Daniel to inform him about the matter immediately. Daniel listened to the warden silently, his eyes darkening, this time in anger. Even though the man was in jail, he was still trying to create havoc in his life. What did the man even want? Why can't he let him and his family live in peace?

If he wanted a put a full stop to this matter, he had to visit the man personally. Daniel assured the warden that he would visit the man first thing in the morning. It was better to deal with him soon rather than allowing him to mess up his peaceful life. Daniel pressed his forehead as he ended the call and looked outside, his face masked with worry. 'What does the man want from me? Why does he want to me and not my Dad when he is the one he should be meeting?'

Daniel shook his head thinking about the upcoming headache. He just hoped that nothing disastrous would strike his family and he definitely did not want Rachel to be pulled into his family drama. She already had a lot on her mind with the way Jared was disturbing her at the opportunity he got. Though Noah had made sure to keep the man as far away as possible by appointing guards for her, he still could not help but worry about his woman. The man was a threat until he was alive.

Daniel padded softly towards the bed and lied down beside her. He pulled her closer to assure himself that the woman he loved was actually beside him and this not his hallucination. Only after his heart was calm, did he fall asleep with Rachel in his arms. 

The next day, Rachel rolled on the bed as she tried hard to open her eyes. Her body was in pain and she groaned in discomfort. She felt weary and his legs felt as though they had lost all their senses, she could not even feel them. She stretched her arms to ease off the discomfort on to hit something, rather a someone who was sleeping blissfully beside her. She then remembered what had transpired the previous night and she blushed furiously, her cheeks blotched with a beautiful shade of red. 

Rachel shifted her body to stare at the handsome man in front of her and gazed at him with love and fondness. The man was truly very charming and his face was quite attractive. She had seen quite a fair share of sexy and handsome men around her with Joshua, Noah and Ian who were in her life since childhood. But to her, her man was the most gorgeous and sexiest. Everything about him made her want to love him more. Unable to stop herself, she pecked his lips.

Daniel who had got up right at the moment she had hit him with her arms, had been waiting to see what was she up to. But he did not expect her to sneak a kiss first thing in the morning. "Are you trying to seduce me again as soon as you got up, darling?" Daniel asked without opening his eyes, startling the woman who was still admiring his striking features.

She stared at him wide-eyed as Daniel slowly opened his eyes to see her. He pulled her closer by her waist as he murmured in his sexy voice, "Are you still craving for more? Do you want a repeat of yesterday's session?"

Though Rachel was truly mesmerized by the man's desirable voice, she was more startled by his words. The man was very shameless and she only found out about it yesterday. Why didn't she notice it before? She panicked hearing his suggestion. Though she loved whatever they did the previous night, she could not go through it once again. She felt as though she had run a thousand miles with the way her body was sore all over and if the man wanted to do her again, she was sure she could not take it.

"No, no. I don't want to do anything. N-No." Rachel stuttered, trying to move away from the man who was staring at her with his wolfish eyes. She noticed that he was acting abnormal and followed his line of sight only to see that the man was ogling her naked chest. It was only then did she realize that she was bare before him. Rachel shrieked in panic and pulled the duvet to cover herself. She did not want the man to get the wrong signals and start with another session once again. She wanted a break, she was too tired.

Daniel chuckled seeing his woman's adorable face and he leaned towards her to kiss her forehead. "Relax, I'll not do anything to you, not today at least." He smiled at her and his thoughts went back to the phone call he had received a few hours back. He wondered whether to tell the woman about it but decided against it when he noticed her tired face. He decided to first meet the man and find out what he wanted. 

"Rachel, are you going to work today?" Daniel asked after a lot of thinking. He wanted her to rest for another few hours. She looked like she needed some more sleep and he did not want her to go and work in this state.

"Yes. But I'll go after lunch hour. I am too tired to even move and anyway, there is not much to do today. If there is anything important, my assistant will give me a call."

"Good, sleep for some more time. I have to meet someone. So, I'll have to go. I'll keep the breakfast ready for you." Daniel pecked her lips and got off the bed. He sighed and went inside the bathroom looking forward to his meeting with the man, who unbelievingly, was his uncle.
