Travis heard from Shein that Julia's friends turned their back on her and exposed the truth to the public. Since they have repented their mistakes for the sake of their families, Travis didn't pursue his 'punishment' to the Flores family. He also called Stefan to see if the man chose to do the same thing.
"You should take care of your family issue soon or it will affect your wife again and again," Travis told Stefan before the call ended. It was a reminder and Stefan knew very well that he should settle it before Julia and Celestine could do something again.
At night, after having dinner and putting their kids to sleep, Cayenne and Stefan spent their time cuddling in bed. Her head was lying on Stefan's chest while he showered the top of her head with small kisses. He loved being intimate with her. No matter how small her act of sweetness, it would give him butterflies.
"Love," Stefan whispered while caressing his wife's arm. "What troubles you?"
"Nothing much,"
"If it's not troublesome, you wouldn't forget to eat your ice cream," Stefan retorted that made Cayenne laugh. Her husband was really paying attention to her.
"Actually, it's not my problem. It's yours. I'm just wondering how I could help."
"What problem? I don't remember having any issues."
"It's about Julia and Celestine," Cayenne answered and Stefan sighed heavily. He moved a little to lie on his side and have her head lie on his arms so he could face her. "I'm not really planning to intervene since this is your family matter, but your grandpa is worried."
"So, Grandpa said something to you," Stefan said which showed he was certain of his words. "I don't care about his opinion. The only thing that matters to me is your safety. If they would do something that would compromise your safety, I'll make them pay. If they won't do anything, there's no harm done."
"What if you forgive them on your grandpa's behalf? Wouldn't it be better if you would just forgive them, so they won't do anything to harm us because we're family?"
"It's not that easy, hon," Stefan responded and kissed her temple. "It's not that simple. You already experienced it. Do you want to go through the same thing again? I'm not only concerned about your safety now. We have children.
They might use our children against us."
Cayenne's heart faltered and her face became hot, indeed. "I... we... I mean, we are going somewhere tomorrow, right? Is one round enough?"
"We won't be driving tomorrow," Stefan responded which meant one thing – one round is not enough for him. "You can sleep on our way there," he added and kissed her lips, drowning all the protests that she wanted to say.
Whenever he starts making love to her, she would forget all other things except for him. He would be occupying her body, her heart, and all the spaces in her mind. She would be consumed by her husband until he releases everything happily inside her.
After a round, Cayenne cupped Stefan's face and kissed his nose. He was still inside her and she could feel him growing. "I thought you'd get tired after dealing with so many things. Where did you get all this energy?"
"I won't get exhausted when it comes to you," Stefan said and kissed her forehead. "But I guess we should stop after another round. I don't want to exhaust you."
"What about you?"
"I'll take care of the rest in the shower,"
Cayenne felt a little guilty, but she knew that asking him to go on would also make her husband feel bad. "I'm sorry. I promise I'll get back to my endurance exercise so I can keep up with you."
"I love you," he said out of the blue and showered her face with kisses.
Cayenne giggled under him and returned his kisses as well. They flirted for a few minutes before Stefan continued moving inside her. By the time he was done, it was past midnight already.
"Just go to sleep," Stefan whispered and kissed the tip of her nose. "I will wipe you clean. Don't worry."
Cayenne groaned her response with her eyes closed. She was really exhausted. Fortunately, she didn't have to wake up early the next day like when she was still a student. "I love you, hubby," Cayenne murmured which made Stefan smile.
"I love you more. I love you and the kids."
