Kaia teased him on purpose, grinning slyly.
“Oh, just scute guy | ran into in the elevator. Insisted on carrying my stuff. No idea which company he’s
from. Crazy | never noticed him before.”
“You wouldn't dare!” Lucien growled, yanking her into his
arms.
“Don’t you dare ask around! That guy's a walking skeleton in glasses. What's cute about that? Cuter than your
husband?”
Kaia burst out laughing. Since when did Lucien start handing out nicknames?
“Oh, please. You used to love wearing glasses when you were trying to winover!”
She hooked her arms around his neck, leaning in to blow a soft breath into his ear. “Wait... now | remember. You
wore glasses on purpose back then, didn’t you?”
She'd figured him out. Lucien wasn’t even nearsighted. He'd faked dropping those glasses to get her attention.
Lugien cleared his throat awkwardly. “My eyes were.chy 5:44 back then.”

“And don’t change the subject!” Lucien huffed. “We're not done talking about that guy.”
“Alright, alright,” Kaia said, laughing now.
“He’s my new assistant, okay? | bought too much stuff, and he sawstruggling-you know, big belly and all—
so he helped carry it. | was just messing with you.”
Lucien frowned. “Can’t they get you a female assistant instead?”
Kaia blinked at him playfully. “Wow, Mr. Graves. Getting a little possessive, aren't we?”
Lucien pressed his lips together, trying not to let his jealousy show-but his sulky expression gave him away.

Desire flared, spreading like wildfire.
Since her pregnancy, Lucien’s kisses had always been restrained, but tonight was different.
“Lucien...” Kaia murmured.
He didn’t seem to hear, his fervent kisses trailing lower.

Kaia, mindful of her pregnancy, fumbled to push him back. “Lucien, the babies-we can’t hurt the babies.”
Breathing heavily, he rasped, “It won't hurt them. I'm not... going there.”
Kaia's face burned at his words.
“Lucien...”
Her body trembled under his kisses, her voice tinged with a whimper.
Only when she was exhausted from it all did Lucien finally let her go.
After all that effort, he figured she wouldn't be calling her male assistant cute anymore.

Nothing had really happened, yet it felt like everything had.
Not just her back, her arms were sore too.
She shot Lucien a resentful glare.
Allen, noticing, assumed Lucien had upset her again.
“Kaia, did Lucien make you mad? Tell me, and I'll set him straight.”
Kaia forced a smile. “No, Allen, it’s fine. I'm just annoyed he was snoring last night! Keptup.”
Lucien’s lips twitched, but he didn’t argue. “My bad. It won't happen again. I'm sorry.”
Allen thought it was an easy fix. “Lucien, since when do you snore? Watch your heart. Don’t end up like Zane
with heart issues. Kaia, if he’s too loud at night, make him sleep in the guest room. You're pregnant; you need
your rest.”
“No need for that,” Lucien said quickly. “I'll see a doctor today. Starting tonight, no more snoring, | swear.”
Kaia stifled a laugh. “Allen, let's give him one more night to prove himself.”

After breakfast, as Lucien drove Kaia to work, Joanne showed
Her face was icy as she sat in the Graves Manor, a chill settling over her.
