Carmine’s POV

“Take care, okay? Make sure to enjoy your day together,” Sylus said to me and Natalia while we were preparing to leave for our mother and daughter bond.

Natalia enthusiastically nodded her head, “Yes, daddy. Mom and I will make sure to enjoy our day together!"

Sylus patted her head with a smile on his face, “That’s my girl. Take care of mommy, okay?”

“Yes, daddy.”

I was surprised when Sylus suddenly looked at me without taking off the smile on his face. I immediately averted my gaze from him, avoiding to have an eye-to-eye contact..

After what happened last night, I don’t even know how to face him without remembering it. I almost did it with him last night. He suddenly kissed me and for no apparent reason, I kissed him back.

I guess I can never be alone with him again. Or maybe I shouldn’t let him be so near me again.

“Babe, don’t forget to call me whenever you get the chance to or if you need anything. Enjoy your time with our daughter,” Sylus said to me, his voice was

    We were both panting when Sylus finally moved away from me. “I told you not to kiss me,” I said, glaring at him. He chuckled, still cupping both of my cheeks. “And why not? You made me play a game and asked me to go to sleep, and now I can’t even kiss you?” “I-It’s not like that. But why do you have to kiss me that long that I can’t even breathe anymore?” Sylus leaned in, his eyes sparkling with mischief. “Because you know you wanted it just as much as I did, Charlotte,” he whispered, his voice husky and seductive. I felt a flutter in my chest, but I tried to keep my cool. “I did not,” I said, trying to sound firm, but my voice came out breathless. Sylus chuckled. “Liar,” he whispered, his lips brushing against mine. I felt a shiver run down my spine, and I knew I was in trouble. I pushed against his chest, trying to create some distance between us. “Stop it, Sylus,” I said, trying to sound stern. But Sylus just smiled, his eyes gleaming with amusement. “Make me,” he w

    "W-Wait, Sylus." I stopped Sylus from kissing me by placing both of my hands on his chest. He looked at me with his furrowed brows, "What is it? Don't tell me you're going to make an excuse again?""W-What?""Last time I wanted to do it, you told me you have your period. That was a lie, right?" My eyes widened. "W-What? H-How did you--"I didn't even see any napkin in the bathroom. That's why I knew you were lying.""O-Oh," I faked a chuckle. "I'm so sorry about that, Sylus. Y-Yeah, I just lied back then. B-But right now, this is the truth. I-I really have my period right now, so we can't do it..." I lied, hoping for Sylus to believe me.His brows furrowed even more. “So, you’re thinking that could work on me again?”“I-It is the truth, Sylus. I swear—“Fine. Then let me see it.”“W-What?”Sylus directly looked at me, his voice testing, “Take off your pajama pants and panties. Let me see if you really have a period.”I felt my face burning with embarrassment and panic. I couldn’t be

    “You did a fantastic job, babe.” Sylus said to me while we were on our way home. Natalia was already sleeping at the backseat, tired from playing with the other kids at the gala.I smiled, flattered about his compliment. “T-Thank you…”“You know what? I am surprised that you were able to nail it even though you never handled anything like that before. I mean, were you able to work as someone’s executive assistant back when you were in the island?”I laughed softly, feeling a bit self-conscious. “No, I don’t really have any experience like that back in the island,” I said. “But I did help out with some events and activities in our community, so I guess that gave me some idea of what to do.”Sylus nodded, his eyes on the road. “I knew it,” he said, his voice filled with pride. “You’re a natural, babe. You have a way of making things happen, exactly what we need in our company.”“T-Thanks…”As we approached our house, Sylus spoke up again. “You know, I’ve been thinking….maybe it’s time f

    “Mommy, you look so beautiful like a princess!” Natalia cooed upon seeing me wearing a red off-shoulder dress that was hugging my curves, making me feel a bit uncomfortable. Especially by the way Sylus was looking at me.I smiled as I looked at Natalia who was also wearing a red dress that we bought yesterday. “Thank you, sweetheart. You look even more beautiful than mommy.”“Well, the two of you are equally stunning.” Sylus commented, then he moved closer to me and whispered, “Especially you, babe. You look fucking hot.”I felt a flush rise to my cheeks at Sylus’ sudden compliment, but I managed to keep my smile in place. “T-Thanks, babe.”“It’s finally over. We will now see everything you worked hard for for the past two weeks,” Sylus said to me again while we were inside the limousine, heading to the location of the gala.“You’re right. I poured my heart into it, so I hope you’ll like it.”“I’m sure you know.”As the limousine started moving, I can’t help but feel a little nervous

    It’s been a week now since I’ve started working as Sylus’ executive assistant, and all I did was focus on the charity event project that he assigned to me.“How’s the project?” Sylus suddenly asked me the moment I entered his office.I felt a flutter in my chest as I met Sylus’ gaze. “I-It’s going well, Sir,” I said, trying to sound confident. “The team is working on the final details, and I expect everything to be finalized by Tuesday next week.”Sylus leaned back in his chair, his gaze not leaving mine. “Good. I can see how dedicated you are with it. I can’t wait to see how it turns out.”“T-Thank you, Sir.”“You’ve been too occupied with this project that I can’t even find you in our bed when I wake up in the morning. It makes me want to just cancel this, so I could be alone with you again,” he suddenly said, sulking like a kid.I felt my cheeks flush at his words, my heart racing with a mix of surprise and embarrassment. “I-I’m sorry,” I stammered, not knowing what to say. “I just

    I took a deep breath as I pushed open the door to Sylus’ office. As soon as I stepped inside, I saw him sitting at his desk, reading some papers.“G-Good morning, Mr. Crivello.”He looked up from the papers he was reading, his eyes piercing mine.“Good morning, babe. You are so punctual, huh? You went here much earlier than me. I didn’t even get to cuddle with you this morning,” he said with a smile playing on his lips.“M-May I know why you asked me to go here, Sir?” I asked, trying to sound formal.Sylus chuckled as he gestured to a chair, “Sir? You’re really getting into the character, aren’t you? Alright, let’s keep it formal then. Have your seat first please, Miss Charlotte.”I sat down, pulling out my notebook as I prepared to take some notes. “Thank you, Sir.”Sylus leaned back on his chair as he looked at me. “I actually asked you to come here to discuss your first project.”His gaze lingered on me, making me feel a bit uneasy. “I-I see. What’s the project about, Sir?”Sylus’
