Alicia shivered for no apparent reason.

The valet noticed her reaction and took off her jacket, putting it on. on his shoulders.

Alicia felt uncomfortable and returned the jacket. I don't want you to be cold, he told her.

It's okay. I'm not cold, the valet responded. You can give it back to me the next time we meet.

However, Alicia insisted on giving it back.

At that moment, her phone rang from inside her bag. Seeing that it was Caden, she felt a wave of anxiety and quickly motioned to the valet to be quiet.

The valet nodded.

Alicia stepped away before he could reach her. answer: What's wrong.

Are you finished, Caden asked emphatically.

I'm still busy, Alicia replied. I'm in the hospital right now.

Caden squinted at Alicia, who was standing by the road with the man's jacket slung over her shoulders. His tone became sharp. Why are you still there It's late and you haven't left yet.

I'm only taking care of the things I mentioned before, Alicia answered. She looked at her watch, worried about not giving herself away. What do you need? Just say it.

Nothing, he answered.

Then why did you call Alicia answered, sounding quite annoyed. I'm busy right now.

Caden let out a cold sneer. You have plans for tonight.

Alicia knew instantly what he meant.

She thought it was too late and she didn't want to deal with him. Yes, I plan to spend the night at the hospital.

Caden's face turned grim.

Alicia, look across the street, he said.

< p>Alicia frowned. What, he asked before looking up.

He immediately noticed the black Maybach.

The sight of the family emblem made his heart pound, and once he saw the license plate, her fears were confirmed.

Her eyes finally landed on the car window.

Caden was there, holding his phone and staring at her.

Alice froze for a second, then he quickly tried to pretend he hadn't noticed anything.

What's on the other side of the street I don't see anything. Anyway, I have to go.

Come closer, Caden ordered.

She fell silent immediately.

There was no real reason to fear him, but those Two words hit her like a blade in the throat, making her feel intimidated.

Therefore, she stayed where she was.

Caden's voice became even colder. I have to go myself.

She answered without hesitation: I'll go. Stay where you are.

With that, the call ended.

Alicia handed the valet's jacket back and quickly made up an excuse to fire him. Then, he started walking towards Caden's car.

They were a few meters away, so he walked slowly, trying to mentally prepare himself for what awaited him.

Once he After calming down, he approached the car. But as soon as she met Caden's sharp gaze, all her determination seemed to crumble.

Alicia couldn't help but think it was ridiculous.

Why she was afraid of him

< p>Despite these thoughts, her hand had already obediently moved towards the car door.

Caden glanced at her out of the corner of his eye. Get in the front seat.

Alicia hesitated for a moment. I prefer the back seat. It's more spacious.

Are you afraid of me? Caden asked.

She didn't answer.

Of course, she wasn't afraid of him.

Alicia withdrew her hand and sat confidently in the passenger seat.

Caden didn't say another word.

He simply started the car and drove away.

Alicia asked with a hesitant voice: Did you see everything that passed.

Caden kept his eyes fixed on the road, his face showing nothing to give away what he was thinking.

You're afraid he saw something you didn't want him to see. he asked.

Alicia felt an unknown sense of fear within her, although she couldn't pinpoint the reason.

Still, she tried to hold her ground. There was nothing in our agreement that required us to be loyal to each other. What I do in my personal time shouldn't be a problem between us, right.

Caden nodded his head.

He was surprisingly calm.

Alicia felt a mixture of surprise and relief when looking at him.

It seemed like he had been worrying for no reason. They were only companions in a practical sense, they did not have a romantic relationship. He had no reason to worry about his actions outside of their agreement.

The car stopped briefly at a corner.

I'm going out to buy something, Caden said, his expression neutral, hiding her thoughts.

Alicia just nodded and preferred not to ask what she planned to buy.

When they arrived at the apartment, Alicia turned to Caden. Have you eaten

Yes, he responded as he handed her a pair of women's slippers. Take a shower.

Alicia looked into his eyes. There was an indomitable wildness about them.

At that moment, that ferocity seemed to roar, driven by desire. An unsettling feeling washed over her, and she quickly looked away, heading straight to the bathroom.

Halfway through the shower, Caden entered.

He approached her, removing himself. his clothes until he was completely naked.

Alicia blushed, took a step back and instinctively tried to protect herself with her arms.

Caden, what are you doing...

Before he could finish, his words were silenced by their kisses and the sound of running water.

The water continued to fall into the shower, and the steam slowly filled the space, blurring their intertwined figures until they were hidden from view. After forty minutes, Caden finally stopped.

He picked up a completely blushing Alicia, carried her to the bed and laid her down gently.

Then, he took out what he had bought earlier. .

Alicia continued to tremble. His blurred vision slowly began to focus, but he could hear a faint jingling.

What was that?

They were handcuffs

Caden pressed his warm body against him again. of her, he grabbed her wrists and held them with something cold.
