At this moment, Shui Xian forgot everything and only had Raelle in his eyes, in his mind, and in his heart as well. No, she was everywhere. Everywhere!
"You should get changed, Mr. Husband," said Raelle while pushing him a little.
Shui Xian stood up to go back to the room to change but stopped to look back at her as he tilted his head, "Darling, why are you talking like that today?"
"Like what?" she asked.
"Like this," he replied.
"Like what?" she repeated.
"Like this."
"Like what?"
"Oh my gosh! Are we really doing this?" he asked in exasperation. They had been going back and forth at it for a while now. And it was so not like her.

Shui Xian smiled at her, "And why are we doing it. That's so not like you."
"And what's like me?" she asked him.
Shui Xian pointed at the book in her hand, "Reading books is like you." He took a pause and asked, "By the way, what are you reading?"
"99 ways to annoy my husband," she replied.
Shui Xian frowned and chuckled at her, "That's a funny joke."
"I'm not joking though," she responded and even held up the book cover towards him which literally read, '99 ways to annoy my husband.' Shui Xian was left gaping at that while she added, "I told you at the very beginning of our relationship that I don't joke."
"Yes, yes, I should take your world literally," he spoke in amusement. "Because you're always serious."
"I always am," she replied.
Shui Xian shook his head, "Why are you wasting your time annoying me? Don't you value your time more than gold?"
"It's not called wasting my time," was her solemn response. Shui Xian's brows quirked up in question and she continued, "I'm interacting with my husband. How is that called wasting time? And how I spend this time with my husband is definitely up to me."
Shui Xian was left frozen in his place for a minute before his lips stretched into a beautiful smile. The one that Raelle couldn't take her eyes off of even after spending months with him.
"Oh gosh! I so want to kiss you right now."
Raelle sat up and held his tie in her hand, she gave it a tug, pulled him towards herself, and kissed his lips just like that. As she pulled away, she whispered, "Wasting time is what you just did, Mr. Husband?"
"Huh?" Shui Xian was disoriented after being pulled down like that.
"Instead of wasting your time on telling me that you want to kiss me, you should save time and just do it instead."
Shui Xian bit her bottom lip and said, "Thanks for the wise advice, darling. I'll keep it in mind in the future."
"I'm happy to help," she said.
Shui Xian pushed her down and mashed their lips together. Well, you couldn't blame him for that. She teased him first. Now it was difficult for him to pull away. His knee settled in between her legs while his one hand roamed in her hair, tugging down the ribbon that held up her hair in a ponytail. His other hand was holding the side of her face, caressing it lovingly but burning with an unspoken passion and desire.
He was panting with his eyes straight into her eyes, losing himself in that voidness that her eyes held. Those blank, empty eyes were becoming his safe haven. Now, they were already his safe haven. Because those eyes always found his. Anywhere and everywhere. And he'd always find himself in those eyes.

Shui Xian's eyes inadvertently followed the movement of her pink tongue swiping over her red lips and may heaven give him willpower, he was so tempted to capture that tongue once again.
He rubbed his thumb on her lips and sighed, "But you're seducing me. How am I supposed to leave when I'm shackled by your charm?"
"I shackled you?" she questioned with interest.
"Certainly," he replied. "My heart is under your spell and so is my whole body. I don't even feel like anything belongs to me right now."
"Guess what?"
"What?" he raised his brows in question.
"I belong to you," she said. "Legally." She took a pause and added, "And I should not even have to remind you of that."
Shui Xian grunted as if he was almost at his limits and the beast within him was stirring to come out and attack. Oh, how he wanted to swallow her up right now!
"If you keep doing this," spoke Shui Xian through gritted teeth. "The only one having dinner tonight would be me and you'd become the menu." He poked her forehead and added, "So, behave!" He stood back up and took a deep breath to calm himself down which was really difficult looking at how her dress had hiked up to her thighs because of him.
His disobedient eyes couldn't help from staring but he shook himself awake. He had to do so.
Raelle watched him leaving and straightened her dress as she mumbled, "Who said I'd be the menu? At the end who'd eat who can't be said for sure."
If Shui Xian had heard those words, this little sweet encounter would have turned into a full-blown fight of burning desire and passion. At this point, Shui Xian had no doubt that his wife was a player. It was difficult to say it was her first relationship. She was always ahead of him and always knew which buttons to press to get to him.
Certainly, sweet words weren't something Raelle Xiang would say but she did. Why? Because he liked those sweet words. And since she figured it out, she had gotten good with those sweet words. So good that he was always left speechless.. Not like him being speechless before her, was anything new.
