Chapter 49 - In Exchange Of Cake

Maverick had done it. But not the entire lovemaking. She used her hand to please him and even her mouth. She wanted to do it and he couldn't stop her. It's his first time to do it with her. He looked down at the woman under his arms. She looked so serene while sleeping. She's amazing. That's all he could say.

If he had known the effect of this thing, he would have done it a long time ago with her. But he's picky now. All he wanted is to be with her and no one else. But he can't stay like that. He has a big responsibility. However, would he take it back?

He sniffed her scent and he felt aroused suddenly. He hugged her tightly but instead of letting it go, he woke her up.

"Hmm," She opened her eyes and smiled at him. "Mavey…" She reached him down there since she probably felt it. He moved his head down to kiss her. They started it again… or more like, she started it again with her hand and mouth. He already loves her. But he had to stop himself from blurting it out. He messed up again on her face but she looked happy.

"I'm sorry. Go back to sleep." He sat up and reached the tissue and wiped her face.

"I'll just get some water." She said.

"No. Stay here, I'll go and get it."

Maverick put his boxers on and went downstairs. He took warm water for both of them and went back upstairs and found her on the bed with her shirt on. He gave the mug to her.

"Do you want to go shopping with me tomorrow?" She asked.

"Sure… my treat."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes." He kissed her forehead. "Buy anything you want."

"Well, I was only going to buy clothes for you."

It felt like he's a useless man. Maybe because Stacey pitied him. However, he didn't want her to do anything for her like that anymore. He should give money and provide for her. He shook his head, thinking that he's a useless man.

"I don't want you to do it anymore."

"I'm sorry." She looked down at her mug.

"Let's go shopping tomorrow and I'm going to pay for everything."

"Okay…" She mumbled. "I'm sorry, again." She knew well that she offended him since he's the man.

He didn't want to be useless. She put her mug on the bedside table and she patted the space beside her.

"Go to sleep. I'll just clean up something." He told as he took his pants and left her room.

Stacey sat up and pouted. It felt like she had been hit right on her heart. She folded her knees and hugged herself as she shivered. She hit her head for being stupid. But all she wanted was to give him a gift. Now, she'll just cry and sleep the pain off.

Just how did she become so sensitive over it? She offended him and made him leave her.

She took another test in an exclusive hospital. Her husband was very supportive and the doctor gave her advice on what to eat and what to lessen. The doctor said that she needed to lessen the sugar. She hated it. She liked milk tea or bubble tea so much and chocolates. She has a specific liking for cakes too but it seemed like she didn't have much choice.

"You can't eat the chocolates anymore," Kenzo said. "I'll put it under my name. Okay?" He patted her head. She frowned at him as the doctor admired them and laughed with Kenzo.

"Dang it…" She mumbled.

"It could be PCOS. So, from right now, we have to cut your sugar intake and exercise. Exercise will be the best. But not too much." The doctor said.

"Got it." She nodded.

"Let's take the ultrasound?" The doctor stood and sanitized her hand.

This is why Kenzo wanted to be in this hospital since they take the transvaginal ultrasound live. Their doctor obstetrician is also a licensed radiologist. Kenzo stayed beside his wife as he looked at the right ovary that had a thin lining than the left one but they had round things and it's called the polycystic ovary. And both aren't fertile. The doctor took a screenshot of it quickly and then, the doctor took out the transvaginal probe and wiped it quickly.

She closed her legs as Kenzo helped her. Then, she went to the other corner to clean up herself. She put her panties back and fixed her dress. Kenzo signed a few things and he didn't let her pay anything. He said that it's already paid. She didn't know where he got the money or maybe it's from that rich friend again.

She checked her phone and stopped.

"Shit, grandma will be in our house in two hours."

"Hmm, I think the cake is ready." He told as he reached her hand.

"You make a cake?" She asked.

"Yes, last night. You were so tired."

"I guess, you couldn't sleep at all." She smiled at him. "Don't worry. I'll treat you better."

"Better, how?" He asked, with a grin.

"You know…" She giggled. "But we have to wear condoms this time."

"I missed you." He pulled her closer to him and kissed her top head.

Then, they strode toward the elevator. The elevator door opened and he let her in first and followed her. She stood on the very corner while he was in front of her to protect her. She reached his arm to pull him closer to her as the elevator door opened on the next floor. He turned to her and smiled. She stopped when familiar people wearing tailored dresses entered. They have two bodyguards with them and Kenzo squeezed her a little.

"The Marquess hasn't introduced his new wife to everyone." The woman in brown hair said. "I wonder what she looked like." She mumbled.

"I heard that she's a beauty." The woman in red-blond hair said.

Kenzo already noticed their brooch the first time they entered. One is from the family of Belmont; the Countess while the other one is from the Viscountess.

"No matter who she is, isn't she a threat to the throne?" The Countess said.

"That wouldn't matter to our family. Besides whoever will be on the throne, it should be the Grand Duke." The Viscountess said.

"The Grand Duke is old." The Countess said. "The King should choose someone right away."

"Countess, we shouldn't speak that way," Viscountess said. The elevator door opened and they left first.

Kenzo held his wife's hand and pulled her to the parking lot. When they reached the parking lot, Kenzo watched as the two ladies went to their car. At the moment, Victoria creased her brows and sighed.

"There are a lot of people who are after the throne after the King becomes unwell." She said.

"If you were in their position, do you want to be a King or a Queen?" He asked as he turned on the engine of her car.

"No. It's a big responsibility."

"But if you become the Queen, everyone would look upon you and no one would dare to say something bad."

"You are right, with the power that the Queen has, everyone would bow down even if it's just for a show." She shrugged. "You are all I wanted, nothing else. And I am very happy with my hubby."

Kenzo smiled and patted her head. Victoria loved him for who he is. But what if she finds out the real him? Would she run away?

When they reach the house, Kenzo and Victoria quickly cook food for her grandmother that will arrive in a few hours. She checked the ice cream cake that her husband made that is in the freezer.

"Hey, stop drooling." Kenzo closed it and stared at her. She sighed. "It has a lot of sugar, love."

"Oh, please… just a slice?" She asked with puppy eyes. The oven bells and he went to the oven and took the mitten as he opened the oven and took out the turkey that they bought. "Love, I'm horny." She suddenly said. Kenzo froze and he gently put the tray of turkey over the marble counter table. "We can only have sex if you gave me a slice of this ice cream cake."

"No." He said coldly.

"Ugh!" She complained again.

His other phone rang as he quickly picked it up and answered it.

"Loren?"

"Your grandfather is in a good condition. You don't have to worry." Secretary Bryan Loren said over the phone.

"I understand."

"I will send you the files and have you review them for your grandfather. I have his seal and signature. How about at ten in the evening tonight?"

"Alright, deliver it to my house."

"Will do, sir."

"Thank you." He hung up and turned to his wife who was probably watching him all this time. "It's Loren. He got me a sideline."

"Okay, but you will really get tired."

"It's nothing." He smiled at her charmingly.

She approached him and hugged him.

"From now on, I'll help you with the laundry."

He chuckled and patted her head.

"I could use some help." He kissed her lips. She gently pushed him.

"Are you sure that you don't want to make love to me?" She asked

"In exchange for a slice of cake?"

She grinned. He sighed and shook his head.

"I can't believe you." He lifted her from the floor and took her to the stockroom.. Then, he removed her underwear and kneel in front of her.
