Chapter 77 - VACATION

"Eh, that won't go away, didn't you just come from your business trip? Don't you get any jet lags? Are you a robot?" Alyx chuckled hearing her being nosy but sleepy. "Why don't you sleep next to me? Come on." She mumbled and softly shook his shoulders, he paused typing and held her arm. 

He kissed her wrist, "Stop being cute and drink your water." She sighed and complied. 

She then puts the glass on the sink while Alyx gets back to his work. Yanarym returned to his side to try her luck again, she felt really bad for him to work day and night, 24/7. It's not like he's lacking money, even Alvan and Kane were the same. They worked themselves so hard and barely had a rest. 

"You rejected me? You won't regret it later?" He smiled and grabbed her hand to pull him to sit on his lap and returned to his laptop. 

"You look tired, you can't even last a round with that strength." Yanarym's eyes narrowed at what she heard, she peered at him and frowned.  "I won't have sex with you, I'm not asking for that." She grumbled. 

'"Really? Are you sure?" He raised his brow but kept his eyes glued to the screen of the laptop. Yanarym snarled and pinched his pointed nose. 

Of course, she is sure! She could merely walk to the kitchen to drink water. What's worse? If he saw her body bruised by those two men in the living room, he might attack and bruise her body too. "I'm not asking for it, I'm sure."

"Okay." He smiled as he replied. Yanarym pressed her lips and looked at Alyx's face. He had a defined jaw, although he's the same as Kane who took things seriously all the time, he's like the bad boy type of serious man. His eyes always gleam with intensity. 

She shook her head, no, she can't. She's not seduced by his devilishly handsome face, she was about to stand up and bid him goodbye to get back to sleep when he suddenly asked, "Instead of that, how about we go on vacation?"

"Vacation?" 

"Yes, just us." He was still gaping at his laptop screen, Yanarym was slightly confused if he was talking to her. She looked at the laptop and he was typing so fast. 

Guide-sama: "He is talking to you Yanarym." 

"Okay, when are we leaving?" She nodded her head and redirected her eyes to him. He looked at her and quickly pecked on her lips. 

"No, let's go now." He put his coat to her top. He closed his laptop, then placed his arms at her back and to her thighs.  

He stood up and Yanarym hastily grabbed his neck. Why does he like carrying her with no caution?! What if she falls!

"A-alyx- hold on, I thought you have to finish your work?" 

"I just did." He said and swiftly left the condo. He put her down when they entered the elevator and took his phone. She looked at her reflection in the mirror on the elevator. Her hair was a mess, she's in pajamas with an oversized coat hugging her body and on slippers! And it's 3:00 am! 

He made a quick call and carried her again. When they reached the top floor he climbed to the ladders to get on the rooftop.

"Where are we going?" She couldn't hold back and asked, but he didn't answer her and just kissed her cheeks. As they approached the rooftop she could hear the loud noise coming from the chopper. He held her tightly and walked to get on it.

The helicopter took an hour of traveling in the air that Yanarym fell asleep in his arms. When she woke up they were no longer in the mid-air, she was being carried so carefully by Alyx that she didn't feel uncomfortable in the whole ride. 

It's just that she could no longer feel the pain, she guessed she was already numb. 

Alyx brought her to a large vacation house on an island that seems to be the only structure standing. He went straight to the grandiose bedroom with the theme of beach houses. As when he was laying down, that's when he noticed she was awake. He grants her tender kisses on her nose, forehead, and lips. 

"You sleep like a baby." He muttered to her. "Are you still sleepy?" She yawned and looked outside, the sun hadn't come out yet. She closed her eyes and didn't answer him. "I guess that's a yes." 

He stood up and took off all of his clothes and walked to the bathroom. He had a quick shower and only dressed as a boxer before laying on the bed next to her. Alyx snuggled her and felt her thin arms hugging his chest. 

"You're still awake?" 

"I was waiting for you," she mumbled while stroking his back with her hand.  

"Why?" 

"To sing you a lullaby, you only sleep when I sing you to sleep." Alyx laughs at her, but she keeps on rubbing his back with such a slow and affectionate rhythm. 

"Again? How many times do I have to tell you? I'm not a baby. I won't fall asleep like that." He told her confidently but since she started humming a song, she ignored his statement. 

She yawned again and embraced him closer. Somehow, Alyx felt sleepy with her sweet melody and caring touch. He closed his eyes and inhaled her scent into his system. Yanarym his body losing tension as his breathing gradually slowed down and stabilized. After hearing his heart wasn't racing anymore, she was sure that he's already asleep. And that only took one minute. 

She smiled, he always denied it, but he liked it a lot when she treated him like a baby. Yanarym made herself comfortable in his arms and kept on singing and humming until she fell asleep herself. 

When she woke up, she noticed that the surrounding was still dark.
