Ian looked at Tracey who was busy with documents and her computer. Temporarily, Leon gave them a room and a table for her to work. Although they claim that she's safe, he was still unable to let her go out alone. That crazy bitch might do something bad again. Also, there's the pending case with Tracey's friends. He was the one who showed up in the court to file charges on them.
"When can I leave the house?" Tracey asked him. "I am quite tired of being your little wife."
"Don't you like it?" He grinned and served her snacks.
"I keep getting fat."
"That's amazing, then."
She snorted and glared at him.
"Cook me the dish from the other day." He said and snuggled to her like a puppy.
"Don't you have a job?" She asked and nudged him.
"I do. My job is having the spot between your legs in my mouth and on my dick."
She slapped his cheek lightly. He laughed and kissed her lips.
"It's the weekend. Take a break." He said seductively. She put away her laptop ready to give him what he wanted but then his phone started ringing like crazy. He frowned and crawled toward the other side to get his phone. "What?" He frowned at Leon.
"Boss, get your ass up. Gang members are looking for my woman."
"It's your woman. Your problem."
"Hey, when your woman got a problem I didn't complain," Leon told him back that made him stop and glanced at Tracey.
"Alright, give me the location."
Leon stood and hung up.
"Sorry, baby. I think you have to play with your toys."
She rolled her eyes and threw a crumpled paper in his direction.
"I don't have toys."
"You do. You just didn't use it." He pointed to the closet. "Find it there. I will be back in two hours."
"Make sure not to screw anyone."
"That won't happen." He said and changed his clothes.
After meeting Tracey and reconciling with Violet to finally become an official friend of her, Ian already contemplated not to trust any friends who might put drugs on his drink and ruin his relationship with someone else. He already lost his first love from a single mistake and because he was a jerk. Now he decided that he will stay with Tracey and fall in love with her. He doesn't want to be lonely anymore.
He drove his motorbike directly to the condominium unit as they ransacked the place just to search for that woman. They didn't know that Leon installed cameras after they moved out. He watched as they left and he followed them to the parking lot. That's when he started beating them up and Leon came and did the same.
One thing in their plan is to trigger their gang until they get arrested. Although they knew that they had little power to get bailed out, the main point was giving them a taste of their medicine on not to mess with someone else's woman.
Leon and Ian beat them up into a pulp. But it's enough for them to move and drive away. Then, they reported about the break-in to Alicia's condominium. Leon will handle the rest but first, both of them need to clean up a few messes.
"How's the subject?" Ian asked while removing the bandage from his knuckles. He needs to do that because his little wife will surely get angry although they weren't married, yet.
"He's still staying in the same area. Giving him that freedom." Leon answered.
They are still monitoring Victor and Violet will secretly sneak into that penthouse to fulfill each other's desire. But Violet couldn't see him every day since the people in the Charles Empire would think differently. That's why they tried hard to refrain her from seeing him even though they are married.
"How about the concubines?" Ian laughed at the term that he used.
"Well, they were thinking that the subject was making love to them while they were asleep."
The two laughed from it. They were using other's semen to scattered it in their things so they will think that they had sex with the Killing Machine. But unlucky, none of them would get a single million dollars from the Empire.

Keira was currently composing a song for Arianna and Alicia. It will be sung for Alicia's first debut as a singer in the Golden Age. She will make it grand and she will make sure that Alicia will capture everyone's heart. She hummed and glanced at her husband who was smiling.
"What?" She smirked at him. "If you want sex let's do it later. My mind was full of flowery words."
"What's the title?" He asked.
"Broken Wings." She grinned at him. "This is perfect for both Arianna and Alicia, don't you think? I will make them the Divas or maybe the songbird." She shrugged.
"You can make anyone like that, yet you won't show your true talent."
"I don't need to show it. As long as my family wants to listen to me sing and play my cello. It's perfect."
"Oh, you are such a darling." He approached her and squeezed her cheeks. "That's why I love you."
"I love you too." She pushed his face. "But I have to finish this. Now you go, strip and wait for me in bed."
He frowned at her and leaned on the piano case.
"I will probably wait for a day or two months."
She scoffed and continued with writing the lyrics. She then put it down and stood.
"Alright, go and strip. In our room."
"Yes!" He almost jumped and so he rushed to their bedroom while Keira took her phone and kept humming, following him to their room.

Bull noticed that she started getting tired each day. It's probably because they have had a lot of customers recently. He sighed and reached her arm.
"Go upstairs and lay down." He told her.
"What?" She was puzzled.
"I will cook, okay? You don't have to do any chores today. I will do it."
"It's alright. I want to do it."
He carried her suddenly, which made her flushed. She wrapped her arms around him and kissed his cheeks.
"I love you." She whispered and leaned her forehead to his broad shoulder. Bull felt the same but he never said that to her. It is the first time that she said it all of the sudden. He brought her to bed and removed her clothes. Then, he set up the bathtub with warm water and put it on the timer so it won't get full.
"I will prepare dinner, relax your feet."
"Okay," She nodded and smiled. Bull left and went downstairs to prepare dinner for her and for Violet who hasn't come out of her room. Shortly, Tracey came down and smiled.
"I'll help you with dinner. Ian will be back in an hour now." She said, glancing at the clock. "Where's Maxi?" She asked and opened the fridge to help him.
"I made her lay down. Her limbs were probably tired from serving people."
"She shouldn't overwork her small body." She mumbled.
"She won't stay there for long." Bull said like he's sure about it. "So, what's your plan?" He asked and washed the vegetables.
"I am still managing the company partially and my other business. It's tiring but I am the only heiress."
Bull was silent for a while and started chopping the garlic.
"How about your father?"
"He's nowhere." She shrugged. "Probably ran off with a little of our money somewhere in Italy."
"Sorry to hear that," Bull mumbled.
She smiled at him. She never thought that a bulky man like him, looking dangerous with a scar on his face, would be so sweet. She already watched him and Maxi many times and he was caring towards her. He also loves her so much by just looking at her.
"You love, Maxi." She commented.
"I do. Who wouldn't love such a lovely woman? She is my everything now."
"I see."
Shortly, Violet came and smiled at them.
"I'm starving," Violet said.
Bull quickly took out the fruits that he readied, washed them, and sliced them.
"Come sit. Dinner will be ready in thirty minutes."
"Thank you." Violet rubbed her tummy and smiled.
"Did you have your check-up?" Bull asked.
"Yeah, Leon will escort me tomorrow." She shrugged at it. "You can go if you want. I don't mind."
"I have to teach Maxi how to drive."
"Okay," Violet watched as Bull served the fruits. She then started eating and hummed.
"How is it to be pregnant?" Tracey asked out of nowhere.
"What? You want to get pregnant too?" Violet teased her.
"Right there."
"There's no right time." Violet chuckled. "If Ian wants you to get pregnant he will do something about it. Trust me."
"That sounds scary. I can't get pregnant now."
They all thought of the same thing since Wendy is still out there living like a real Princess. It's good that the Charles Empire pulled out the mission of killing Tracey. But still, she was cautious until they were done with screening for the bodyguards that could protect her. Ian pays well just for her protection.
Violet was happy that Ian found someone that could match him.
