Elliot had left Lillie at the lobby after she insisted for him to go home and rest .
The building was quiet and a bit dark . The securities roaming the facility tipped their hats and greeted her when they saw her .
Lillie acknowledged them with a nod .
Besides the securities, you will not see other employees working overtime .
It"s rare but not unseen .
There are still those who we call nocturnals .
Letting out another soft yawn, Lillie leaned her head on the couch and closed her eyes .
Advertis.e.m.e.nt
But don"t be fooled . No matter how tired she is or even when she closes her eyes, her senses are still on alert .
So when familiar arms wrapped themselves around her upper and lower body, her eyes remained closed . Lillie felt herself up the air as she was carried .
"Sorry for being late . " His deep, husky voice tickled her ears . Lillie instinctively leaned closer, his soothing scent filling her nostrils .
"Hmm . . . " She could only hum in response as his mere presence was able to boost her sleepiness .
"Sleep . I"ll take care of you . " It was as if he casted her a magic spell, Lillie had finally succ.u.mbed to a sweet dream .
Knowing full well that she"s is good hands .
When the sun has risen up, the light had seeped through the drapes and directly hitting Lillie in the eyes .
It alerted her consciousness, thus causing her to stir up . Lillie became aware of the body caging her in his arms .
Lillie snuggled closer to his warm body . Due to her movement, she felt him wrap his arms around her tighten .
"Ethan, you had gone bold . " She muttered but only received a hum .
After a minute of comfortable silence, he said, "I need a bit of spoiling . "
Her lips curved in amus.e.m.e.nt . "Is that so . . . " She chuckled . "Alright . "
Ethan"s eyes fluttered open . A debonair grin appeared on his sleepy yet devilish face . "No take backs . " He said, pulling her so that she lies on his chest .
His large hand held hers, and raised it to kiss her palm .
"Good morning . "

"Hm . . . good morning . " Her heart flutters . This feeling was still unfamiliar to her but . . . she wouldn"t want it to part .
Ethan hope that this will last forever but he"ll be a fool if he believe it will .
The matter about yesterday resurfaced in his mind and it made his calmness to waver . Of course, it didn"t escape Lillie"s eyes .
"Is something wrong?"
" . . . it"s nothing . "
He silently cursed . He hesitated, Lillie will not let him off now .
Lillie leaned her elbow on the bed, placing the side of her head on her palm . "Spill . " She demanded .
Ethan sighed .
"Later . " He said before pulling Lillie once again in his arms, his leg on top of hers .
" . . . ?!" This man"s getting bolder and bolder, ah!
Unbeknownst to Ethan, Lillie pouted . But since he hid her face on his chest, he failed to see the cute expression she was making .
If he knew, he will cry blood in regret .
Sighing, Lillie yielded . She will let him off for now—since he asked so nicely to be spoiled by her .
