“What do you mean you can't?!” Shane shut his eyes when Audrey yelled at his face.  He was dead-tired and was asleep when he caught a whiff of a lavish meal. The luscious smell forced his wobbly body to get up. Thanks to his hangover, he had a hard time stepping down the stairs.  His eyes almost dropped from its sockets when he found Audrey in the kitchen. She was wearing an apron, and he wouldn't lie, she looked so sexy with her hair braided on the side around her head like a crown.  “Good morning,” she greeted him and it took him off guard. He was speechless until she spoke again. “I'm making you breakfast since this could be t

Another wave of silence passed through. Shane was surprised at what she said. It was all over his face. Quietly, he stared at her who refused to look back. His mind was blown away, not by her tremulous voice but her words. He heard them, loud and clear.  ‘I took her first kiss,’ he thought to himself.  He knew her, and she wasn’t the type to make up things. Shane could tell that Audrey was telling the truth, but he refused to believe it. For what reasons, there were so many on his lists.  Audrey disappeared for years and who knows what happened of what she was doing all those years. After she showed up, completely different, and had changed

“Sì,” Audrey answered him when he asked if Nathan came. “You can talk to him later but first, where do you usually eat? This place is too messy and I could still smell the paint on the wall,” she rubbed her nose with her finger and hold the tall guy on the arm to drag him out of the place. “I remember you said there’s a garden at the back, let’s go check it out. We made you some nice food for today’s lunch.”  Anderson pushed the glass door leading to the back. The colorful flowers almost blinded their eyes when they took a few steps to the left side of the building, following the footwalk made of white sands and colorful pebbles meticulously arranged in an artistic way, a flower garden was found.  Built at

The night was long and Audrey couldn’t sleep even after yawning many times. She shut her eyes and took several turns to the side but it was as if the drowsiness she had vanished into thin air after she found herself lying down on the king-size bed in the master’s bedroom. She would check the time often and every passing minute felt like an hour to her. Hey, eyes started to get tired but her mind won’t give her a break. She had been overthinking about the things that could happen while staying with Shane in the same house. To add up with her worries, her mother-in-law was expected to stay with them for a while. Shane would definitely have no problem acting out like a ‘perfect’ husband he could be. Well, as for her, she could cook which was one of the ‘basics’ a woman should learn at least when getting married. Other than cooki

“Are you sleeping?” Audrey asked when she didn’t hear a response from Shane. She moved closer to watch his face closely, making sure that the other wasn’t pretending to be unconscious. “Say something if you’re awake,” she added while carefully watching his eyelashes which she expected to flutter. “Forget it,” she gave up her idea about him ignoring her question. “So, how I get you out of the tub? Don’t expect me to carry you like a princess because I’m not your prince. Ah, it should be the other way around.” She kept murmuring to herself, not noting the faint smile on the man’s face. “Gosh, why can’t I just leave you alone here until you recover on your own? Besides, it's you who decided to overexert yourself in drinking when you knew that you can’t handle it. Those
