Chapter 48
“Baby, I have to travel next week”, Brian said.
True to Serah’s words, the passcode for the vault was the day of his parents unveiling. Brian had mixed up the date with his father’s birth date which resulted in the mix up.
“Really? Where?”, Serah asked, mixing a bowl of batter.
She planned on making cookies later since Brian had never been quiet about it. He’s been ranting all day long about it and Serah had to promise him she’ll make it.
“Paris. It’s on business though, I have something important to take care of”, he said.
“Okay, how long would you be staying for?”, she asked.
“Three days”, he said.
“I’ll be alone for three whole days, I don’t think I’ll be able to cope with that”, Serah sighed.
Brian walked towards her, setting that bowl of batter on the kitchen counter. He lifted her, placing her on the counter as he stood in between her legs.
“I’ll miss you honey but it’s something I really need to take care of”, Brian said.
He leaned in, planting a soft kiss on her lips. Serah drew him in, effortlessly locking him in her grasp. She gripped his shirt, running her hands all over his body.
“Someone’s horny”, he chuckled.
“Always for you. Now are you going to do something about it or not”, Serah laughed.
“And when have I ever said no to that”, Brian said, leaning in.
Serah was now flat on her back on the cold kitchen counter as she stared up at him. His eyes glistened as he stared at her body.
“Oh Brian, cat’s got your tongue”, she chuckled.
“No, you got my tongue. You’re a fucking damsel Serah, I really don’t know how I got lucky with you”, he smiled.
“Well, you’re lucky. Now, enough talking and more action”, Serah said.
She drew him to her, slamming her lips on his. She moaned when she felt his hands grip her waist possessively, he stroked her inner thighs taking her over the edge.
“Clothes off”, he growled.
He tore her shirt, effortlessly freeing her breast from her bra. He cupped one, drawing her nipple in his mouth.
“Brian”, she gasped.
Brian made quick work of the rest of her clothes and his before slamming into her. Serah moaned at the pleasure radiating through her body and she sighed in bliss when he brought her over the edge.
“Let’s go”, he smiled.
Together, they rode through their release and Serah knew if she died at that minute, it’s going to be a happy death.
“I think you should stay here with me. Don’t travel”, Serah sighed.
“I hate to leave you honey but I must, it’s important”, Brian said.
He helped her to her feet, handing over her clothes. They dressed up silently as Serah resumed mixing the batter which was soon ready to be baked.
“Okay but you promise to come back after three days?”, she said.
“I promise. Love, did your parents call you ever since then?, Brian asked.
“No, they haven’t. Did you get anything on them”, she said.
Brian knew she was anxious but at that moment, there was nothing he could do. Her parents were prime suspects and until proven otherwise, that was what they were, suspects.
“No. Which is another reason why I have to go to Paris, I might have a clue on what their deal is”, he said.
“Okay but please darling, whatever you do be careful. I really don’t trust my parents anymore and I have a feeling that they might strike soon”, Serah said.All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Brian walked closer to her, drawing her to him. He wanted to comfort her as much as possible but he knew that her mind was a whirlwind of different emotions all threatening to burst through her anger.
“I’ll be fine darling, trust me. Don’t worry about me. Like I said before, I wont die without your permission”, he smiled.
Serah chuckled, kissing him gently as she watched him leave. She was going to miss him but she had to buff up and stop being a baby.
He left soon and Serah was left alone in the huge mansion that seemed bigger now that he had left. She desperately wished for something to do but everything she looked at didn’t seem to intrigue her.
Just then, her phone gave a sharp beep indicating she had a call. She swiped the screen which showed that it was her long time friend calling.
“Oh my gosh! Is this you?”, Serah gasped.
“In the flesh darling, in the flesh”, he said.
“Where have you been. I mean, it’s been ages”.
“I’ve been here and there trying to make ends meet. How about you darling, I hear you’re the future Luna now?”, he chuckled.
“Yes, I am. It happened all of a sudden, I still can’t believe it myself but it’s true”, Serah smiled.
Sometimes when she thought about it, she couldn’t believe she was Brian’s. It was a heady feeling, one that she was proud of.
“I’m happy for you baby girl and I’m so proud. This is huge and you should thank your stars for being lucky”, he said.
“I’m not lucky, I’m blessed. To have my mate by my side, it’s something I never envisioned happening probably in years to come”, Serah said.
“I’m glad it came now. You’re a good person and I’m glad you met someone like him”.
“I know. Are you back to new York?”, Serah asked.
“No, far away from it. I don’t plan on coming anytime soon, I have some stuffs to take care of”, he said.
“But if I might ask, what are you really into”, Serah said.
“I wish I could tell you but I can’t. The nature of my job won’t allow me too and if the people I work for find out that I told someone about what I do, it could spell trouble for me”, he said.
“I hope you don’t kill people for a living”, Serah gasped.
“Damn no, hell no. I won’t ever do something like that, Serah you know me so well”, he said.
Serah heaved a huge sigh of relief, she couldn’t deal with it if she discovered that one of her close friends killed people for a living.
“I’m relieved. Please, don’t ever do something like that”, Serah said.
“I won’t. You know me so well Serah, you know what I can do”, he said.
Serah smiled, because now her heart was at rest.
