Chapter 242 242. Found Their Own Rhythm

He looked at Kizy, who looked like a fallen goddess, unarmed and completely at his mercy. But even in her vulnerable state, she looked like the most exquisite woman existing on this earth.

Her lips were red and swollen from his merciless attack while her cheeks were flushing from all the heat he was making her experience.

Her bare white skin had been marked by him while sweat beads covered her forehead like dew drops on a beautiful flower.

"Look at me, little lamb." Markus said, his voice magnetic and dominant.

Kizy obeyed and slowly opened her eyes, though she could only make out Markus's countenance from her cloudy vision.

Markus looked at those shiny eyes that held his entire universe within them, and finally he lost himself in those sparkling eyes.

"Aahhhh!!" Kizy cried while inhaling sharply while Markus entered and paused halfway, letting Kizy feel and get used to the sensations he initiated in her body.

"Breath little lamb. Breath. Just breathe and relax." Markus said, and somehow Kizy, even though in so much pain, obliged.

Markus kissed her forehead and her lips, before starting with his actions. And Kizy, experienced what pure pleasure meant.

All her pain was gone, replaced by a heavenly feeling that she never knew could exist.

Soon they were both lost, lost in each other, breathing the same breath, bodies intertwined, souls merged while they found their own rhythm.

*2 HOURS LATER, MARKUS's BEDROOM*

Markus placed a sleeping Kizy on the bed after cleaning her up properly. He placed a gentle kiss on her forehead.

"Happy Marriage Anniversary, my love. I made you tired." Markus said, a hint of guilt visible in his voice, while he covered her entirely, making sure that she wouldn't catch a cold.

"Sorry for not fulfilling your promise." Markus continued, his voice dull and gloomy, but cold and helpless at the same time, masking a whirlwind of emotions he had been holding inside for days.

He caressed her hair, before placing another gentle kiss on her forehead. But instead of sleeping beside her he stood up, turned to see if Kizy was completely asleep and fully covered.

He kept looking at the earth shatteringly beautiful face, illuminated by dim light, which was sleeping peacefully while his heart skipped a beat.

He shook his head before walking towards the balcony.

He closed the curtains behind him so that the lights outside their gate won't disturb Kizy in sleep before taking out a cigarette and lighting it up.

He slowly inhaled the smoke, the nicotine buzz calming him down. A lot of thoughts had been flooding inside his brain. He had never been so anxious in his life before as he was now, especially after thinking about Kizy.

"I am sorry." He said to nobody in particular while blowing out a perfect smoke cloud.

*10.30 AM, ONE WEEK LATER, MARKUS's HOUSE*

"There is something important that I need to discuss with you." Markus said, his voice serious.

For the entire past week, Markus hadn't left Kizy's side for even a minute. He made her experience what being in heaven meant.

Both of them were on a week long holiday, snuggling, cuddling, kissing each other. Markus, in fact, was so much addicted to Kizy that he wouldn't even let her bathe alone.

This way the couple ended up making love in each and every corner of the house, their bedroom, kitchen, dining table, balcony, bathroom included.

Markus just wouldn't let Kizy wake up without a steamy makeout in the morning, and Kizy would only get out of his arms when her stomach rumbled, complaining for food after their exhausting but addicting intimate activities.

In short both of them were living their lives to fullest, enjoying their honeymoon period, getting intimate whenever they could as there was nobody to watch them.

All the servants, maids including the butler and old chef were also given a week long holiday.

"Go ahead." Kizy, who was sitting on Markus's lap, turned to face him, knowing some serious issue was going on.

It wasn't that she couldn't see the sudden aura that Markus would unknowingly release and hide in time. Such minor details could never go unnoticed by her.

If it was once or twice she might have ignored it, considering that she might have misunderstood. But when the same thing happened for the third and fourth time, she knew her instincts were on point.

It was just that she was waiting for Markus to speak it out. In fact she had even asked him twice if he was alright, or if he was facing some problem.

But Markus simply brushed past the topic, diverting her attention. And Kizy, though knowing that Markus did that purposefully, didn't question him, because she trusted him.

Hence she was waiting for Markus to open up, to explain whatever was happening and finally Markus was about to do so.

"Actually one of our foreign branches is facing issues repeatedly. I tried to resolve whatever I could from here, but it seems like someone is deliberately causing trouble for us." Markus said and paused.

"That's not the entire story right?" Kizy spoke, knowing there was more to it.

"Yeah. So I have decided to go there and personally take care of the branch till it is back to normal." Markus said, taking a deep breath, knowing this was sudden.

"Is it that serious?" Kizy asked, though not wanting to doubt Markus, but she couldn't feel it right.

"Yeah. The branch manager supposedly ran away after receiving money from our partner. A report has also been made, questioning the quality of material we use. Similarly another employee is being suspected for a murder case." Markus said and paused.

"The news has been suppressed by me, so it hasn't reached our city yet. But if this was to continue, then it would affect the remaining of our branches as well." Markus said, his voice low, but something was changing in his eyes.

"So what do you plan to do?" Kizy asked, her voice a little stiff.
