Aya woken up by the smell of strong coffee and today, she actually opens her eyes with a smile on her face. She sat up and felt her hips feel a bit sore. “Gosh, I need to do more stretching.” She thought to herself as she slowly went down to the bed. “What more if it was Gavin in his fullness?” Aya blushed with her naughty thoughts.
She walked over to the kitchen. Gavin was cooking hotdog and eggs for them. Aya hugged him from behind. “Good morning, baby.” She said lovingly.
It was music to Gavin’s ears. Hearing Aya say those words every waking day of his life; that would be a dream come true. He turned around to hug Aya back and greeted her with a kiss. “Good morning, my princess.”
Aya covered her mouth. “Wait, I haven’t brushed my teeth yet!” She ran away from Gavin and went to the toilet to freshen up.
Gavin laughed at the shy Aya once again. He adores his girlfriend all the more; she can be fierce, cheeky, and shy and still make his heart thump. Gavin could not process his luck of having Aya in his life, it’s just too good to be true.
He prepared their food while Aya was in the bathroom. “I hope she likes this,” he mumbled.
“Wow! Your hotdog and eggs look delicious.” Aya licked her lips as she praised Gavin’s cooking. He blushed as his naughty radar turned on."Oh, that did not sound good huh?" Aya realized what she just said.
Gavin laughed and held his red ears. "It did sound good coming from you." he smirked at her.
They finished breakfast and were preparing to go to work. “Are you ready, babe?.” Gavin said to Aya. She turned around and fixed Gavin’s clothes and his hair. Gavin held her hips while she was busy. “It feels so good to have you here.” He whispered to her.
Aya slowly went down on Gavin while maintaining eye contact. Gavin’s mind could explode just looking at the way she looks at him. But Aya went on her knee to tie Gavin’s shoe properly. He took a deep sigh when he realized it was not what he was expecting.
“You should always fix your shoe laces babe. I don’t want you falling for anyone else.” Aya laughed after finishing her pick up line.
Gavin helped her up, “That was a good one.”

Gavin walked Aya to her store they were walking hand in hand when Aya broke the silence. “Baby, I’ve decided. From now on, I will follow you around.”
“Huh? Why?” It confused Gavin.
“Well, my mom told me so.” Aya was serious. Gavin met none of her parents yet why would her mom tell her that?
“Really? Does she know about me?” Gavin was curious. He is not sure if they are on that level already that he is worthy to be mentioned to her parents.
“Well, not exactly. But I remember her telling me intently that no matter what, I should always follow my dreams.” She responded with her witty punch line.
Gavin burst into laughter after realizing he was too hooked on that one. “Well, baby, to be honest I was just thinking about the same thing earlier.” He confessed.
“About us?” Aya was afraid; that Gavin meant meeting her family.
Gavin nodded. “Yes, how you were once just a dream for me. I never really thought that you would love me back.” His voice and tone were consistent. He truthfully loves Aya.
“You are too sweet. Sometimes I wonder if I deserve such a sweet, handsome and hot man like you. But here I am feeling sore from last night. I don’t need to pinch myself anymore. You are truly mine.” Aya and Gavin both laughed at her answer.
When they reached Aya’ store, Gavin said goodbye and promised to go back to her before she closes store. Gavin claimed Aya’s lips like they were his. Aya pushed him slightly away as she tried to catch her breath.
“If you don’t stop now, I’m afraid I will have to pull you in and call it a day already.” Aya warned Gavin.
They both laughed and Gavin went on his way. Aya's heart is full. She is looking forward to more moments like this with Gavin.
Aya was busy at her work when an unwanted presence entered her store, right at the moment her staff head out for some deliveries.
“Hi Darling, did you miss me?” Gerard said to Aya. She cringed the moment she heard his voice.
“Go out, I don’t want you here.” Aya was stern in her words. She did not want anything to do with Gerard anymore. He was actually lucky that was all he got after the incident. His parents are filthy rich that they evaded jail time. Aya opted to let it go. She actually can use her father’s influence too. It’s just that she does not want to involve him anymore.
“Don’t push me out just yet. I have something to tell you.” Gerard was being himself; a stubborn kid.
“Whatever it is, I’m not interested.” Aya is showing no mercy to Gerard anymore. Aya pointed him out to the door once more.
“Are you sure?” Gerard sneered at Aya. He was about to turn around when he said; “It is about Gavin. Are you still not interested?” He baited Aya.
She exhaled heavily and gave in. “Wait. What about Gavin?”
Gerard laughed mirthlessly. He knew Aya’s weakness; “Funny how the Princess’s weakness is her own Knight.” He mocked Aya and Gavin.
“Stop with your non-sense and get to the point before I call the cops again for harassment.” Aya slammed her hand on the counter.
“Easy, I just want to remind you. Hudson treaty is just valid for a year. I heard Julian; the one who is hunting Gavin is itching to get his hand on him.” He hinted at Aya.
Aya just smiled thinking Danny could handle his own family. Aya is sure that Gerard does not know about Danny but he does not need to know him about him either. She just laughed at his empty threat.
"Go, I know a bluff when I hear one." Aya reiterated.
Gerard waived his finger. "Wait, I'm not done yet." he sat on the counter and tapped his chin.“Do you know what is interesting in Gavin’s case? Julian is not allowed to hurt Gavin. His own family forbids him. I mean who does that? Is there a higher being that Julian should know about that is protecting Gavin?” Gerard was confident with his information.
Aya could not comment. She feels uneasy that Gerard seems to know more.
“Julian actually did something really brave. He contacted their rival family to decapitate Gavin for him.” He shook his head like he was sincerely afraid of Gavin.
"You heard me right. His instructions were explicit not just eliminate or incapacitate but directly decapitate." Gerard revealed it to Aya. "Tsk, tsk, what a waste, right? I mean he has a pretty face after all." Gerard laughed at the doom that was waiting for Gavin.
Aya kept mum. She needs to talk to Don about it.
Gerard stood up and went to the door but he left the confused Aya with words she needed to think about. “I can help you save Gavin. I have a simple deal for you. He lives you become mine."
