Chapter 230: Secretary

After multiple positions on her stomach, with her throat screaming so loud, it was hoarse, she realized she shouldn't have said that. Her bottom was now red, with a large imprint of his hand. He soothed and massaged the sore spot, while she was lying face-down on his desk. Twitching. Shaking. She had lost count of how many times he came inside of her. She was weak and unable to move a limb.

Now, he was in his office, phoning Sebastian to bring a new set of women's clothes.

"Tell me that again, dove." Kaden smirked after putting the phone down.

Lina could not. She was braced against the desk, whilst he remained seated and clothed. He was glowing with health and stamina. Meanwhile, all of her energy was drained from her and his seeds were dripping down her thigh.

"Ah!" Lina cried out when he inserted two fingers inside.

"Keep your legs closed, you're wasting our hard work," Kaden teased in a low, collected voice.

Lina was a mess and he was composed. She wanted to kick him. He never gave her the chance. Instead, he turned her so that she was facing him on her back. She weakly looked up at him, feeling sweaty and dirty. 

"I'm tired," Lina told him. 

"I know, dove. I know." Kaden bent down and kissed her gently on the forehead. A second later, a buzzer went off. He approached his office door and saw a shopping bag awaiting him. He picked it up and walked back to his desk, where Lina was still limp. 

"Come, dove." Kaden helped her into the new set of clothes and noticed a note at the bottom of the bag. He was initially unnerved that Sebastian had shopped for her underwear but the note quelled his irritation.

'Ran into her secretary downstairs. She picked the clothes.'

-Sebastian

Good.

"Ugh, why are you so healthy?" Lina complained, falling into his lap.

Kaden smiled down at her, his mouth finding the top of her head. She was nuzzled in his arms, comfortable as could be. He leaned back in his seat.

"If you hadn't provoked me, you would've still been able to walk," Kaden calmly said to her.

"I can walk," Lina protested.

Kaden raised a brow. "It seems I didn't fulfill my duties. Let me try again."

Lina glared at him.

Kaden smirked at her.

Lina wanted to wipe that arrogance off his face. Before she could even delve into that thought, he grabbed her wrist and pulled her close. She thought he'd kiss her. Instead, he adjusted their position so she could rest her head on his shoulder.

"There's a bedroom beyond one of the doors here," Kaden softly said. "Would you like to sleep?"

He had a bedroom here?

And they did it on the desk?

Kaden must have been a mindreader. His smirk deepened. His grip tightened.

"You brute."

Kaden let out a deep chuckle. Straight to her chest. Lina could feel her heartbeat skip like a little girl with candy.

"I like your laughter," Lina softly sighed. "Laugh more."

Kaden's smile dropped. She frowned, her heart slowing. She instantly hugged him.

"I'm cold."

It was a lie. Her skin was still burning from his searing touch. She felt cold on the inside. Ever since that night he had abandoned her in bed, he'd done nothing but cherish her. Whenever their lovemaking was finished, he'd hold her. For as long as they could. It was usually until she fell asleep.

"Is laughter so hard for you? Are you that much of a depressed soul?" Lina humored.

Kaden scoffed. "Couldn't you tell from my black and white office?"

"Oh yeah, because it just screams of melancholy," Lina snorted.

Lina rubbed her face into the crook of his neck. He stilled. She continued. She realized his scent was the strongest there. His scent of wood and mint. He smelled like the forest after the first rainfall. She loved that. Now, she understood why he always liked to nuzzle her throat.

"I don't laugh often, dove. To laugh, you have to be happy." Kaden's large hand caressed the back of her head. Somehow, Lina didn't feel comforted. Instead, it pained her.

"Do I not make you happy?"

"You feel like sunshine and roses," Kaden snorted. 

"But I don't make you happy."

Kaden let out a rough sigh. He pulled away, but she clung to him. He could feel her frown on his skin. 

"I'm beginning to worry I screwed a few brain cells out of you," Kaden deadpanned.

"Just my rationality to stay with a man who—"

"You make me VERY happy, dove." Kaden rested his mouth on the side of her head. Her hair smelled like his shampoo. He smiled. Did she use his products? As much as he liked that, he wanted her to never change her body wash. That damn thing was addictive.

"Then…" Lina trailed off. She held back a small sigh. She didn't understand why he rarely smiled. Why he rarely laughed. 

Kaden's gaze softened. Only by a fraction. She wouldn't know. She had buried her face into his shoulders as if it could lessen the pain. He stroked her spine up and down, in a comforting motion. 

That, and he was worried she really was cold. She was in an outfit similar to the one she walked in wearing. That secretary of hers was smart, that was for sure. It'd look like nothing happened in here, even though she was literally screaming his name earlier.

"It has been a while since I've genuinely laughed. The emotion felt foreign. Without you in my life, there is no joy, and I've gone centuries without you around."

Lina's breath hitched. She knew it was neither party's fault. She always died too early and he loved too late. 

"Then, if I stay by your side, will you learn it again?" Lina's voice was small and hesitant because she believed this would be their future. A future where she'd be safe and comforted in his arms. Or so, she believed.

"Only if you're with me." Kaden's tone was firm. Unyielding. He meant every word that he said.. He always meant it.
