---Inside the room---
By midnight, the darkness outside was almost absolute. There was only a smattering of luminous stars scatter the heavens. The moon emitted a faint light into the room through the window. Even the wind that blew was cooler and damper than it had been.
On the king-sized bed, the petite figure of a woman was sleeping in a spaghetti strap, mint-colored, lace nightgown that was starting to rise above her thighs as she twisted and turned in her sleep.
The only thing keeping it all in place was a ribbon on each shoulder, like a Christmas gift, begging to be unwrapped. The dress was the perfect fit and gave her figure the best curvature.
In a slow turn, the doorknob twisted very quietly.
A dark silhouette crept towards the bed very slowly, without making a sound, as if afraid of waking up the person occupying the room. Tiptoeing, he moved closer to the bed.
The moonlight was hidden by the clouds above, obscuring his sight of the sleeping woman, but it didn't stop him from smiling softly when he saw the silhouette laying on the bed.
When the cloud passed and moonlight came in through the window once again, it gave him just enough light to be able to see her sleeping face. Astonished at her beauty, he felt his heart get caught in his throat.
'How I wish to see you like this in my arms every single night, my wife'. His hand came up to caress her hair softly, leisurely trailing down from her temples to her smooth cheek and lastly stopping at her lips.
The smile on his lips was so soft that it would have surely captivated the woman if she was awake. Unfortunately or not, she was in such a deep sleep that she didn't even notice anyone in the room.
Not knowing what she was dreaming of, her lips opened a bit and her small, wet tongue darted out to lick his fingers as they lingered on her lips.
Quieting the gasp that was about to escape, Xiao Hua felt a jolt of electricity run through his body.
Looking at the moist lips, he thought to himself: 'Just one taste, just for a bit and then I will go.'
His weight brought the bed down slightly, but the woman only stirred a bit, facing him as if giving him easier access.
He brought his lips to hers in a light touch, tickling his heart like dragonfly wings. She still felt as sweet as he remembered, and he wanted nothing more than to embrace her tiny body tightly and never letting go.
Impulsiveness got the better of his mind and he pried open her mouth with his tongue and explore her cavity, savoring the taste slowly like aged wine.
His hands roamed around her body, tracing her velvety skin from the opening he found on her waist up until he found a small soft mound that fit perfectly in the palm of his hand. Very slowly he trailed his kisses down to her neck, giving more attention to her collarbones that looked so delicate in the soft light of the moon.
Breathless, he looked down on the defenseless woman under him, his purple orbs turning so dark they were almost black with desire.
One of his hands was kneading the softness with gentle care inciting a soft moan from the woman.
That small whimpering voice brought him back to reality.
'I should stop before I lose control or else my wife will be widowed by those two… Stupid Devil and Little-Brat.'
Reluctantly, he tidied up the nightie that he had messed up and gave her another fluttering kiss on her moist lips.
Fighting his urge to jump on her and finished the delicacy in front of him, he clenched his hands tightly.
"Good night, my wife. Dream of me," He breathed.
As silent as he came, he closed the door, wiping the trace that he's even there on them firsthand.
Outside the door, he helplessly gazed down to his member that throbbing in pain and let out a helpless sigh. It seemed that he would need yet another cold shower tonight.
As soon as he disappeared from the room, from under Yue Wan's bed, a little cat walked out.
Little Bao looked at the closed door with a long stare and hopped up near his Mommy.
He was hovering close to her and, once he found a comfy spot, bent himself to a ball for a superior dozing position. With substantial yawning, he shut his golden eyes.
---The Next Day----
Before the sun could completely rise, the Third Elder hurried to his First Brother's home alone.
He wanted to go there and ask about the Yue kin's assault the previous day.
Despite the fact that Xiao Hua had prevented the incident from spreading. The Third Elder's people who came to assault Yue Xiang saw everything that occurred that day from afar.
Since the mishap was too frightening, they remained watching from a safe distance and saw the car blowing up. However, they could not tell what had happened on the opposite side. After the blast, they raced to report to the Third Elder in detail.
After he got the report, the Third Elder sat tight for any news surrounding the Yue sibling's demise. However, there was not even a bit of news about what had happened. He contemplated whether to call Master Yue or not in order to confirm the news, yet he was afraid that Master Yue might find it odd that he was aware of what happened when no one else did.
In addition, on the off chance that he straightforwardly called the Yue Villa to ask about their prosperity, it would cast doubts as to his involvement in the whole situation. Because of all these scenarios, his only option was to turn to his First Brother to see if he knew anything.
However, this was the biggest mistake that the Third Elder committed on that day.
Being awakened too early in the morning on this cold day, the First Elder sat before his Third Brother with a cranky face.
The servant placed the tea and newspaper before them and turned to leave the two of them alone.
Taking a taste of the hot tea, the First Elder let out a small sigh in contentment, not changing the sullen look on his face and picked up the paper to read the news calmly.
