Each moan that came out from her parted lips made Alec smirk deviously. His fingers playing with her while his tongue sucked on her n*pples.
" S-stop... please." Emma moaned with each touch and tease.
" plea..se."
Emma snapped in her sleep breathing heavily, her heart racing and face flushed.
" Good morning."
" Ahh! Goodness you scared the shit out of me."
Emma turned to the side and saw Julian opening the curtains.
" Didn't mean to, were you having a dream?."
" Yeah, such a weird dream." She tied her hair.
" Sex dream?."
" What? No...why would you think I was having one of those?."
" Not only did you moan once but twice while biting your lip, if that's not a sex dream then I don't know what is."
" Oh god, it's so embarrassing."
" It's normal, I have one of those quite often. Get ready and come out for breakfast."
" Sure, thanks."
Emma sighs heading to the bathroom, after freshing up she joined everyone on breakfast table.
" Are you going somewhere?." Emma asked Julian seeing him all dressed up.
" Yes, I have work to attend to. I will you see you later." He gives her a kiss on the cheek and left. Trixie waited for Julian to close the door behind him before cornering Emma.
" Are you two a thing now?."
" What, no... We're just friends."
" Friends? He sees you more than a friend clearly."
" Well...he did confess his feelings towards me the other day."
" And what did you say?."
" W-well, nothing I was just...it was all to sudden I didn't know what to say."
" Emma you're still married to someone."
" I know that, do you expect me to just seat around waiting for my memories to return. What if I never remember my husband do I still wait. But you know him Trix... you can save me the burden of " who " he may be by telling me his name or face?."
" I don't want to cause you pain."
" Leaving me in the dark and not telling me is causing me pain and suffering. Please... I need you to tell me."
The room went silent....

Nick picked up his son at his ex wife's house to spend time with him.
" Isn't she here?." He asked the servants.
" Madam went out quite early Mr Qinn."
" Did she say what time she'll be returning?."
" We don't know how long."
Nick sighs. She always does this, leaving their son in the hands of the servants to look after him, she barely even spends time with him or anything.
" Let's go buddy."
" Dad can we go visit Uncle Alec's house sometime, it's been a while since I last saw my cousin?."
" Buddy."
" Please Dad, I miss playing with Eli."
" Fine, next weekend okay."
" You promise?."
" I promise."
He patts his head getting into the car and driving off.

SCHOOL CAMPUS.
Winter went to visit a friend at campus to refresh her mind and get away from home, after seeing Emma with her own two eyes her body just shut down, her mind stopped functioning for a while and the tension in the air was just too heavy to bare.
She knocked on the door and her friend opened the door.
" Winter, Hey."
" May I come in?."
" Of course, come in." She closed the door behind her. Winter instantly broke into tears not able to hold it in any longer.
" Hey...what happened, what's wrong?." Her friend pulled her in her arms for comfort.
" I don't know what to do from this point, I...I don't know."
" Did you argue with your husband? Did he hurt you?."
She knew Winter was a married woman seeing a wedding ring on her finger, but she doesn't know who she's married to exactly. But seeing the cars that drops and picks her up daily... and that handsome bodyguard of hers. She can tell winter is married to a wealthy man. Winter doesn't talk much about him apart from saying " he's a good man and cares deeply about her " I guess that's one way to put it if you don't want to disclose a personal point of view.
" We didn't argue nor did he hurt me intensionally but... But I am hurt."
" Tell me what happened."
" I fell in love with him that's what happened, something that should have never happened it goes against our contract... our agreement."
" What do you mean Winter...fill me in a bit more?."
" Alec Qinn. He's my husband bound by an agreement on paper, we got married on set of rules and one of them was that if I fall for him he wouldn't hesitate on letting me go, it will be over for us cause he's still in love with his late wife and he's not planning on replacing her with anyone."
Winter crumbles in her arms sobbing uncontrollably. You could feel the pain in the tone of her agonizing cry, poor thing had no one to turn to and made her way to the only friend she has on campus. She could only curl winter in her arms hugging her tight as a source of comfort.
Hours went by since winter fell asleep. It was dawn and the sun had went down. A knock echoed inside the room and she went to open up.
" It's you."
" Is Ms Bloom inside?." Aron spoke.
" Uh... she's asleep, waking her up wouldn't be appropriate.
" I'll be careful." He goes in and gathered Winter In his arms. He noticed shades of tears and puffed eyes but asked no questions.
" Have a good night Ms."
" Please look after her, she's... she's having a bad day."
Aron nodded and left.
....
The next morning,
Alec was talking to one of the employees in the lobby for their next meeting. Dressed in his favorite color of all black, his blue eyes shinning as bright as an ocean, his silky smooth brown hair perfectly pushed back. All the employees that passed by could only gasp with staring eyes, no matter how long they've worked there along side him they still acted brand new... like it's the first setting eyes on him. But as usual he ignored their stare, their intense gaze on him and unspoken compliments, with every greeting they threw his way he simply responded with a polite nod as he proceeded.
The elevator opened with a ding and long slender legs stepped out of the elevator, black red bottom heels making a graceful sound on the marble floor with each step, her bottom knee leather brown skirt holding her perfect hips, a long sleeve white shirt holding her breast area tight and firmly, her long ponytail flopping from side to side as she walked... round gold earrings shinning, bold enough to wear red lipstick and just slightly bit of make-up to even her pale skin tone. Eyes widened and everyone in the lobby paused their works to look at her. They couldn't believe their two eyes seeing Emma Rose Anderson Qinn, who's supposed to be dead walk through that elevator like it was nothing.
" Uh... Sir."
The employee that stood with Alec suddenly said with his jaw dropped. Alec turned around and saw her... She was really there, standing in front him facing her. Alec had all the urge to lift her and spin her around, he was dying to see that smile of hers more than anything, to stare into those grey eyes that once looked at him with so much love and warmth. He slowly walked up to her, slowly and surely... and stopped just in front of her, close enough to look directly into each other's bright eyes.
" Can we talk?." Emma said softly.
" Follow me." Alec spoke sneaking his hand behind her lower back and leading her towards the other elevator. He pressed the tenth floor button and they went all the way up to the tenth floor. Reaching his office, he called the receptionist desk and told her not to be disturbed.
" Can I get you anything, coffee? Water?."
" I'm fine thank you."
She said staring at him. Alec nodded knowingly, waiting for her to say something...he desperately wanted to know the reason she was there, not only that but why she would take a risk to appear to a place that's crowded with people. If she wanted to see him she could have asked for a private meeting with him so why risk it... unless...she's planning on making an official appearance to the public." Not to mention, why is she looking so damn hot?."
" The reason I'm here Mr Qinn, is that...I would like to meet Eli, our daughter." Alec raised a brow.
" Did she just say ' our daughter ' ."
" I spoke to Trixie and begged her to tell me anything about my mysterious husband. She told me everything about you... about Eli. And that you have a wife whom I'm guessing is the woman you were with at the park."
" It's not exactly how it looks li-
" Like I said she told me everything I don't need you to explain, will you or will you not let me see my daughter?."
