Oh how she wanted to slap off that smirk from his lips but she couldn't, he was too enticing. She sighed heavily and said, "I know that you've been deprived of me for months but seriously, Han Yizhou. Do you have to set up your alarm just so we could do it in the morning?"
He chuckled in astonishment upon hearing the words that she had said to him. "It was not to wake me up but to wake you," he finally confessed.
The frown on her face went deeper. "I'm seriously going to kill you for disturbing me from my sleep!"
"You saying 'seriously' it means that you won't really be doing it ," he retorted. He released her wrists and was about to lean forward for a kiss on her lips but it was blocked off when she suddenly covered his mouth with her hand.
"Not so fast, mister…"
She felt his lips curled up against her palm and together with it were his beautiful dark eyes that were like two black holes, pulling her to him.
The next moment, she felt his hands, sliding under her nightgown, over her bareback, making her shift closer, taking up the space between them. That was then when she felt something hard against her baby bump. She blushed, Hard. As she stared into his eyes without saying a word, she was bewitched by his beautiful eyes that seemed to have a world of their own in them. She wanted to be a part of his world.
"Ah… curse you." She wrapped her hands around his shoulders then initiating the kiss instead. She shifted and straddled him under her, her knees on either side of his hips. The man didn't seem to mind her being on top of him. If he did, he wouldn't have easily given way for her.
She licked into his mouth, nibbled on his lower lip. This was her first time dominating the kiss from him. She was taught well from their previous kisses after all. Aside from that, Han Yizhou was intentionally making her lead everything. Lu Mengjie ran her hands down his chest, unbuttoning his polo shirt, one by one until she was finally able to feel the hardness of his muscles. Her fingers traced the bunching of his abdomen. She pulled back from the kiss just to stare at him with her flustered face.
"You're doing great so far, sweetheart," he complimented, flashing her with a smile. He reached out to gently touch her cheek. "You're beautiful, so beautiful."
"You don't have to remind me of my beauty," she replied with a soft chuckle. She leaned back and gazed down at him. "Just one round?"
His chest rumbled at the chuckle he made. "Will you be satisfied with one?"
She bit her lower lip, hesitating. "The doctor did say that as long as we didn't go hard, it'll be fine…"
His eyes landed at her bulging belly. Despite the doubt inside him, he still couldn't help but hope. This time, he trailed his hand on her baby bump, gently stroking it without saying a word but Lu Mengjie could see what he was thinking, she could see them on his face this time.
"As far as I know, you're the only man I have slept with," she reassured. "As long as it's not zero, then the possibility will always be there." She leaned down once again, this time, landing her kiss on his chin.
The sexual tension in the room soon dissipated and was replaced with an ambiguous atmosphere. In the end, the couple ended up cuddling each other in their arms, satisfied with having each other's presence with them.
"Please don't set an alarm from now on." She whispered sleepily, her head resting on his chest, her eyes shut.
He smiled while staring at the ceiling. "Should I apologize for disrupting your beauty sleep?"
She pouted and opened her eyes just so she could raise her head to look at him. "Not just my beauty sleep but our son's! How is he supposed to become the most handsome baby if you're interrupting my sleeping cycle!"
"The… most handsome baby…?"
"With our genes mixed, our Lang Lang shall have the most beautiful face in the world!"
He raised a brow in amusement. "I bet it will be a sight to behold."
"Of course it will be!"
Han Yizhou turned to look at her and smiled mischievously as he said, "should we continue on where we left earlier?"
She quickly closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep which only made him chuckle again.
This time, the man didn't even try to set up the mood for them again, instead, he allowed her to drift off to sleep
...
By the time Lu Mengjie woke up, the room was already filled with light, entering through the windows. She could hear birds chirping from outside. The first thing she witnessed when she opened her eyes was Han Yizhou's perfect-looking face. A smile found its way on his face as he greeted, "good morning, princess."
This was the kind of sight she wanted to wake up to every morning. Her eyes turned crescent as she smiled back at him, a faint blush was plastered on her cheeks. "Good morning darling…"
She touched his cheek and was about to lean forward for another morning kiss but she paused when something suddenly caught her attention. There was a ring around her ring finger. It was a platinum band with a snowflake cluster with a diamond in the middle. She slowly took off her hand away from his mouth just to have a closer look at the ring.
She found the snowflake familiar… so familiar that it made her feel a sting on her chest. She suddenly felt her neck empty. It was then that she realized- no, she remembered. Her precious necklace. She lost it.
The horror in her face was different from what Han Yizhou was expecting. It made him worried. Nervous. Did she not like it? "What's wrong?"
"My necklace…"
He blinked a few times and replied, "I had this ring designed after your necklace."
"No… it's not that…" She looked at her with glossy eyes. "I… I think I lost the necklace that papa gave me…"
