It was three fifty-five in the morning when Kenzo woke up from that dream. After his wife gave him a glass of water, he finished it and never left the bed without her. He embraced her, locked her in his arms until she fell asleep, afraid that he'll lose her. 

The clock alarm rang and he didn't let her go after he turned it off. Yet, she woke up and rubbed her eyes. 

"You didn't sleep, love?" She asked as she kissed his abdominal up to his chest. He smiled down at her and kissed her forehead. "I'm going to prepare breakfast." She grinned. "I set up a menu today…" She looked excited as he let her go. 

She went to the bathroom, humming and then, she came out wiping her face. He followed her after he brushed his teeth and washed his face. He wanted to see how his wife would prepare their breakfast.

She started becoming an expert in cooking. From making a perfect sunny side up egg using a heart egg molder to make it adorable. She even cooked a vegetable soup, very much healthy. Then, the chicken that she marinated last night was deep-fried. And some have been baked. 

"It's for grandpa." She said. "And Mr. Loren." 

"Huh, you are also cooking breakfast for them?" 

"Yes, I promised grandpa a healthy meal. And," She presented the fruits. "I'll make a fruit shake without ice." 

"You are something, Victoria. You make me fall in love with you all over again." Kenzo said as he looked at his wife lovingly. 

She flushed as her lips drew into the sweetest smile. She walked around and hugged him from behind. 

"Thank you." She whispered. He patted her head. She quickly went back to her cooking. "Love, go and take a bath. This won't take long. And, they will be here soon." 

He nodded at her as he obeyed his wife. He took a bath and went to his wardrobe. He didn't have a proper outfit. But he had that coat perfect in the office as a casual. He won't dress to impress. He only wore the denim jeans that his wife bought for him, and a simple t-shirt and the coat. He wore his sneakers and went downstairs. She glanced at him. Then, she stopped and turned her head to him. 

"Love, you are completely gorgeous but~~too casual." 

"Love, it's fine." He grinned. "I like being comfortable." He approached her and kissed her lips. "Now, I'm famished." He said sexily. 

"Sit down and eat." 

A car honk outside. She patted him and took the breakfast basket. She went to the gate quickly and opened it. Secretary Loren smiled brightly as he bowed at her. 

"Here's your breakfast with grandpa." She said with a smile as she extended the basket to him.

"Thank you, miss." 

"By the way, I heard that Kenzo started working for you. I am planning to make a lunch box for grandpa. Is he perhaps eating with you?" 

"Yes, madam." He answered. "But if you are too busy, I don't want to bother you~~" 

"It's alright. I have nothing to do anyway." 

"We'll take care of Kenzo." Secretary Loren said. 

"Thank you." 

The man bowed at her as he entered the car. He waved at her as she waved back. She went back inside and found her husband standing holding a plate while eating. 

"Let's go back inside." He said. 

"Why are you outside?" She creased her brows. 

"I am just making sure that you'll come back." He grinned. 

"What?" She chuckled, confused by his words. 



Maverick stared at the ceiling as he gently caressed Stacey's smooth shoulders. The alarm already goes off but she's not even moving. She just tightened her arms around him. 

"You know… I have to cook for breakfast." 

"No…" She groaned. "Would you bring me lunch?" 

"Yes." He turned his head to her and kissed her forehead. "Let's get up, okay?" 

She agreed to him. He went downstairs while she stayed in her bedroom. Maverick wanted to make breakfast, lunch, and dinner for Stacey every day while he stays with her. Soon, he'll have to leave. Kenzo will start his plan. 

Just as he finished cooking, Stacey came down already prepared for work, she kissed him and he kissed her back. He pulled a chair for her and then, he walked around to the other side. They eat quietly. Maverick stopped eating and watched her eat. 

Kissing every day and every night. He wanted to get used to that. But, he's afraid that when he leaves her, he'll start missing it. He's afraid of her hurting her. But it's the only way to protect her. Maverick will miss her scent and her taste and her touch. He wanted it every day and every night. But he can't be selfish. Her safety is what matters more than what he felt. 

Stacey raised her head and smiled at him.

"What?" She asked. He smiled back as he continued eating. "Mave," She called. 

"Nothing, you are just pretty." He mumbled. 

"Ahw, I wanted to hear the word beautiful rather than pretty." 

"You are gorgeous." He grinned. 

"That's better." She teased back. 

Maverick felt like a wife as he saw his husband out for work. It might be reciprocal of roles but he's falling in love. They kissed again and she mumbled to him to try on the new toy that he bought for her for later. She's teasing him to make him think about it all day. But he had a few distractions. Starting with making lunch boxes and delivering them with Victoria. He cleaned the house first, took a bath, dressed up, and used the mask that Caleb gave to him to use for their meeting outside, so he didn't have to wear a face mask. 

He still put his cap on and face mask on. Then, he takes a cab to Victoria's house. He stopped seeing a man dropping flowers on the gate. He got out of the taxi after he paid for it. The man left quickly without even knocking. It's good that he's filming the guy starting when he's inside the cab. He went to the gate and pushed the button. After a few seconds, Victoria appeared and smiled at me. 

"Mave?" She asked. 

"Yes, V. It's me… just a disguise." He told her. 

"Come on." She waved. Then, she stopped and looked at the flowers. 

"A guy riding a scooter dropped it by." I showed him the footage and she creased her brows. She took it inside and put it on the flower bed. She let him in and locked the gate. 

"Just who would send me those?" She asked as she took out the card from it. 

She froze, reading the words. 

I'm not done with you, sweetheart. 

"What the fuck?" Mave cursed. He quickly pulled out his phone while Victoria was dazed. He sent the video to Kenzo. Then, he took it from Victoria. "I'll take care of this, V," He said. 

"O~okay…" She nodded as she went back inside the house. He took photos of the letter and the flowers and sent them to Kenzo. He's sure that Kenzo won't let anything bad happen to his wife, now that she's alone. 

He followed Victoria inside, taking the card with him to use as proof of blackmails. 

They started cooking, while Mave removed the silicon mask that he was using. He put it carefully on the mold and they cooked a big lunch. Each of them is tasty and healthy just like what Victoria wanted. Then, they started packing it after cooling it. Victoria dressed up casually and they left the house. 

Mave wondered what's inside Victoria's thoughts. He wanted to comfort her but it seemed like she cared no less about the threats. Or maybe, she's not aware that it's not just a simple admiration toward her. The man who sent it wanted to fuck her. It says that 'I'm not done with you, sweetheart' that would lead to a different meaning. First is, 'the man almost raped her and he failed' that's why he wanted to get back to her. 

"Who do you think is the sender of the flowers?" He asked. 

"With those words, I have men in my mind," Victoria said. "Jacob and Jason." She sighed. "You know, just yesterday, the man approached me. Then, after that, my dad scolded me for being a flirt." 

Mave scoffed, after hearing about her father. 

"Your father is the worst." 

"I know…" She said. 

"Just like mine," Mave mumbled. Victoria turned her head to him. 

"So, your father is like my father?" 

"I think he's the worst." He shrugged. "Let's not talk about the father thing. Let's talk about the defense that you should do." 

"Right," She nodded as she continued driving. She started explaining to him what to do. Defend herself, run with her phone, and ask for help. And if she doesn't have her phone, she'll have to get ready for attack. 

"You know what, you are right." Mave reached his bag and took out a small bag. The car stopped in front of Caleb's office. He took out a pen and gave it to her. 

"Uh, pen?" She asked. 

"Open it." 

She opened the pen and her eyes widened at the two inches size of a sharp thing. 

"Defend yourself, okay? I gave one to Stacey and pepper spray. You should always have a pepper spray with you too." 

She pouted at him and nodded. 

"Thank you, Mave."
