Chapter 97 - First Kiss
Keira was in the garden with her husband for their morning sun. Her husband was busy with his tai-chi exercise. Somehow, her husband taught it to her and she failed at it. She won't easily give up on the tai-chi dance. It's a type of exercise that includes deep meditation and breathing. She sighed seeing how sexy her husband was. Right, meditation would help her husband with his anxiety.
After he's done, he wiped his sweats and waved at her.
"I'm lazy."
"You can't be lazy." He approached her and lifted her from the seat. "Stretched now." He demanded while she's pouting.
"It's so hot in here." She complained. Alessandro turned when he heard footsteps. "Oh, hi Jo! Hi Conrad!" She waved at them.
Conrad waved with a grin. Johanna was already in her workout outfit, the same with Conrad. Alessandro put her down.
"Alright, now go and follow," Alessandro ordered.
Keira didn't have a choice but to follow Conrad and Alessandro as they led the exercise. Johanna seemed to know about it and she's good at balancing. She just now realized that Johanna also practiced Judo and Muay Thai back when she was in the states. They've been doing it for an hour and Alessandro told her to focus. But how can she focus when her mother and the maids are preparing the food?
Finally, they are done with the exercise but later on. Conrad and Alessandro will teach her how to use that dancing art in a fighting style. They ate more protein and she glanced at Johanna who was busy eating. But she's the only one who noticed that Conrad kept glancing at her. Did something happen to the two?
"Here," Alessandro put a slice of ham on her plate. "Eat more." He mumbled. She nudged him and moved her lips close to him.
"Do you think that something is going on between the two?" She whispered. Alessandro stared at her eyes for a while.
"Hey, stop minding other people's business." He nudged her.
"But they look good together." She mumbled.
"Yeah," he said casually. "Eat your food first."
She pouted at him and kicked his foot childishly.
After breakfast, Johanna went to her room to brush her teeth before they went on with another exercise. To her surprise, Conrad entered her room and leaned on the door frame of the open bathroom. She only glanced at him and stared at her reflection in the mirror.
"I have a question." He said. She bounced her head. "So, does Keira know that her brother is alive?" he asked in a low voice. She shrugged at him.

"Why do you ask?" She reached the towel and wiped her mouth.
"Well," he shrugged. "I am just surprised that she isn't as crazy as him."
"What do you mean?" She creased her brows.
"Even though Harvey wasn't kidnapped at those times, he's a maniac and a sharpshooter."
"Maniac?" She leaned on the
"Not sexually to the opposite sex. He's a freak but he's the first best friend that I have. Also, Harvey never left any comrade behind. Even though it'll risk his life."
"That's how he was raised. But I disagree about being a maniac. Yes, he's quite wild but he's also caring. I think joining the army gives him a lot of adrenaline rush."
"I'm sorry." He said.
"For what?" She was puzzled.
"For this," he stepped forward, quickly scooped her jaw, and kissed her passionately. Her eyes widened as her body froze.
It was the first time that she didn't automatically hit someone. It's different from Harvey who attacked her with the same kiss, her body automatically hit him. But Conrad? Her body melted and when his tongue was seeking entrance, she gave it to him and fell deep to him.

Harvey entered Sabrina's house just after her husband left. He moved like a shadow and Sabrina was in her robe busy choosing her outfit for the day. He sat down on the bed and reached the picture frame where the couple just got married.
"Why isn't EPUA moving in this case?"
"We did. We tried." Sabrina sighed. "I hired assassins to torture them but MJ was the one who stopped me since they decline." She turned and lifted two of her jeans. He pointed to the navy blue jeans. "That's why we kept on track with them. Your men have their locations including four men who were also from the navy and possibly raped your MJ."
"Why?" He asked again.
"What do you mean why?" Sabrina creased her brows. "You had an affair with my agent right inside my facility, you asshole! She was committed to that man and when he found out that she lost her virginity to someone else, he was in a rage. That's why after that, MJ broke up with that bastard! It's your fault after all."
"Hmm," Harvey stood as he went to the window. "I'll send out the knives and tools to you. Choose on which best that suited for the torture."
Sabrina rolled her eyes.
"Harvey, just don't! Okay? Your temper, it might ruin your plan."
"I will kill anyone who hurt my MJ and my family, Sabrina."
Sabrina sighed.
"I would also do the same."
"And where's Shadow?" He turned to her. "I need him."
Sabrina shrugged.
"He's always around. But before you kill them, don't leave any traces that you killed them." She said, indicating every word. "Or your plan would be ruined."
"Why did MJ accept it? Stayed as someone who was raped by many men, had a miscarriage, and got stabbed by a crazy girlfriend?"
"MJ was outnumbered." She mumbled. "She tried hard but those men were retired navy and currently assassins. It's too late when Conrad and Catriona found her."
"And the miscarriage? It might be my baby."
Sabrina tried hard to mask it. MJ was one of her agents, she was a rising class A agent but somehow, MJ was the one who stepped down and remained as class B and to work in the office. The trauma got into her. After being raped and her miscarriage.
"I want a timeline."
"It's your baby," Sabrina said as she chose her shirt. "She was pregnant when she was raped. She doesn't have an idea. Then, after a week, she was beaten by Beatrice and stabbed."
"What else?" Harvey asked calmly but his mind was always thinking of killing.
"There's still a chance that she could have a baby. The other ovary was saved. But I'm sorry for the loss of your baby."
"There's nothing to be sorry about." Harvey smiled, but somehow it's something sinister. "I'm still going to kill them."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSabrina laughed.
"I am waiting for this moment, Harvey. I've been thinking of how to kill them and even hired assassins who turned back on us because of the Charles Empire. You were the only one who could finish them. But I'll give you a hand. Don't worry." She winked at him.
"I don't want to include EPUA here. It's to protect MJ and my family. I'll handle these bastards."
He pointed to the black v-neck shirt.
"Thanks!" Sabrina waved as Harvey left the house like a shadow. "Good luck, my friend." She mumbled. "It'll be chaotic but fun." She smirked.
Harvey reached MJ's apartment. He learned from his sister that it was MJ's day off and at this time, she's still sleeping. That's why he cooked her favorite dinner. The time that he left EPUA after being clean, he started searching for her since she momentarily left EPUA which she requested from Sabrina after what they did in his room. It was fun. That's when he met her again and he didn't think twice about saying 'hi' and taking her directly to bed although she hated him.
She also chose to live in a shabby apartment. It's small and doesn't have tight security. She chose to be cheap since she's always out in the field. But MJ already saved up enough money to buy a house. But recently, the house she purchased was put on sale. Harvey learned hard that it's where they did it to her. They cornered her and violated her. He somehow bought the house. It's not too big but wide enough to have a garden, garage, and pool. He was planning to start a family with her but it was all ruined because of the bastards.
"Good morning." He smiled at MJ who came out of the bedroom wearing the shirt that she wore last night. He took the mug and poured warm water. He kissed her lips and her head. "I am making your breakfast."
"You didn't leave?" She asked.
"You asked me to stay. But I left a while ago to buy groceries." He flipped the egg and placed it on the plate. "Let's have a date." He said.
"To where?"
"I'll surprise you."
"Since when did you ever ask me on a date? It's new to me. The first time we get close to each other, I lose my virginity. Then, we meet again and I had sex with you. Our life is nothing but sex, Harvey. You are a horny beast."
He laughed boyishly and reached her chin.
"Sex is dating too. But in bed." He winked. "I brought you to a hotel, didn't I?"
"Oh, please." She snorted. "It's not a date!"
Harvey stared at her for a while and he finished cooking the food. Then, he walked around, lifted her to make her sit on the barstool, and kissed her passionately. Her legs wrapped around him and so were her arms.
"I miss you, Mitch." He mumbled as he mentioned her real nick-name.
"I want you, Harvey…" She panted. Harvey froze for a while as he felt someone watching them from the window. A sniper?
He took Mitch to the wall, pinned her to make love to her. He's going to deal with the sniper later after he pleased his woman.
