In the morning Luceniel wakes up late than usual, slowly open eyes. He feels pain on back and neck. On his body and face there are several bites and kiss mark. He looks beside him but Elunara not there. night robe on floor. Curtain closed.

"she's crazy." He whispers. "I still feel pain and …" he suddenly remembers last night moments. The kisses and sweet moments he spend with Elunara last night, His face gets blushed. Luceniel touch neck and goes inside bathroom to wash face and wear something.

Suddenly door open.

'kacch'

"Good morning, Honey." Elunara face looks fresh and bright not like Luceniel. She also has a hickey on neck but unnoticeably unlike Luceniel. She asked Luceniel affectionately, her warm and slow voice makes Luceniel's heart raceand jump. "Did you get a good sleep last night?" she goes near Luceniel and hugs his right arm. Touching the bits marks she gave him last night.

Luceniel look somewhere and spoke. "Yeah." His voice is filled with guilt. "Did you also have fun?"

"Yeah, very much."

"If I remember correctly, I told you last time." He looks into Elunara eyes and points his finger on neck. "don't give me that much marks, everyone is going to notice on lab."

Luceniel face look a bit worried but not Elunara, she is smiling with affection toward Luceniel like she wants to do one more time. She goes near his ears and whisper. "don't worry dear, no one going to notice anything promise."

'sigh'

"Leave it, can you bring me a glass of water for now."

"Sure, just a moment please." Elunara goes downstairs and bring a glass of water and something else. She quietly hand over glass of water to Luceniel to drink but didn't show other thing.

Time 7:30 Am.

They still have 3 hours before office. Elunara show a paper to Luceniel and askes help. "Honey, can you help me in this."

"What is this?" Luceniel take paper from Elunara hands and read it.

She explains the deal about XEO group. "Today I arrange a meeting with XEO group CEO. They all arrive today but I want you to attend instead of me."

"But why, they all come to meet you not me. And if you didn't appear in meeting, they consider that disrespect."

"don't worry about that, right now I hold 40% share of Vale group. And you only hold 1%."

Luceniel lowers his head a bit and spoke. "Yeah."

"We still don't know their true motive, and I want you just observe them and nothing. if something comes up here." She gave Luceniel a Bluetooth. "I gave instruction through this. So don't worry and just follow me." She gets closer and closer to him.

Only an inch away from lips. Luceniel didn't stop her but said. "Still. I can't attend today."

Elunara stop and glare at him asks why he couldn't attend.

Luceniel calmly explain with a smile. "The reason I couldn't help is. Ruby of star. I'm so close to create space element. And I really want to help you but, I can't leave Lily behind. She already goes through so many broken emotions past 2 years. I couldn't watch her any more broken." Elunara feels happy inside but didn't show on face.

She hugs Luceniel neck and kisses him. And spoke. "don't worry about Ruby of star. And here" he sits beside Luceniel and put her legs under blanket. Showing all the information of Ruby of star on her tablet. "I complete all the research early in the morning. Even check all the element combinations you haven't check yet. We just need create a core compatible with thunder, energy, earth and water. Then here."

On her tablet all the information flying around about Ruby of star. Luceniel gets very happy and kiss on forehead. Elunara replied with laugh and warm. "Lily is also very important for me." She put hand on Luceniel cheek, their eyes meet with affection. "So don't worry and do what I say."

'nods'

'kissing'

They both go for a long kiss; no one hold any kind of embracement now. Only laugh and sweet touch.

Elunara mumbled in middle. "it's sad today in not a weekend. Otherwise spend whole day here with you."

'chuckled'

Luceniel hold Elunara in his arms princess style. She resisted a bit and spoke. "I already take shower."

"Without me?"

'Closes eyes'

Luceniel open bathroom door, turn on shower removing Elunara dress calmly and kissing her back. The water temperature is perfect, make everything easy and lovable.

She turns around looking into Luceniel eyes and kiss him.
