After surviving the long flight, Jay Jay finally finished a very loud, strictly supervised dinner with Tita Lola, Angelo, and Aries. She practically crawled up the stairs to her bedroom in the Fernandez estate, completely drained.
She flopped onto the mattress, laying flat on her stomach like a totally lazy, defeated cat.
Her limbs were completely spread out, and she didn't even have the energy to change out of her comfy clothes. Snuggling her face into the plush pillow, she reached for her buzzing phone.
The screen lit up with the caller ID she had lovingly picked out for him: "king of ulupong's"
On the other side of town, Keifer was staring at his own screen, which beautifully displayed "mrs watson" ❤️. He answered immediately.
"You reached home?" Keifer asked, his deep register sending a familiar, soothing vibration straight through the line.
"Yeah, I am," Jay Jay whined cutely, her voice muffled by the pillow. "I am currently a flat pancake on my bed. Tita ,Lola made me eat so much vegetables, Keifer. I feel abused."
"Good. It means you're actually getting real nutrients instead of fried chicken bones," Keifer countered smoothly, a low, breathless chuckle escaping his lips. "Rest properly, okay? You have a big day tomorrow."
"Okay..." she murmured sleepily, her pouting face burning slightly as she remembered his possessive marks hidden under her collar. "You better miss me tonight, you brute leopard."
"Always, marshmallow. Go to sleep."
—Next morning —
The next morning arrived, marking Jay Jay's very first day at her new college. To her absolute relief, everything went incredibly well! The campus was beautiful, her classes were interesting, and Section E wasn't there to cause any loud, chaotic explosions in the hallways. For a few hours, she actually felt like a normal student.
But the peace didn't last. The moment she walked back through the doors of the Fernandez house, reality slapped her right in the face.
Angelo and Aries were already waiting for her in the living room, surrounded by thick folders and tablets.
"Great, you're back. Change your clothes quickly," Angelo said, his tone strictly professional and completely grumpy as he tapped his pen. "The local board members are waiting on Zoom. We need to review the quarterly Philippine market shares right now."
Jay Jay dropped her college bag on the floor and slumped onto the nearest sofa, throwing her head back. "Nooo... please. I don't want a meeting. I am so impossibly sleepy. My brain is literally fried from lectures."
"Jay, this isn't a game," Aries scolded, looking incredibly strict as he crossed his heavy arms. "Get up. You can't just sleep whenever you feel like it."
"I am tired!" Jay Jay fought back, her voice cracking hysterically as a dramatic pout took over her face. "I had a long flight yesterday, my body still aches from—uh, from traveling!—and I just spent hours taking notes! Can't we just do this tomorrow?"
"No, we cannot," Angelo countered sharply, his eyes locking onto her stubborn expression. "Jay, you're the CEO of Mariano Corporate. You cannot run away from your responsibilities just because you want to take a nap like a lazy toddler."
"I am not running away!" Jay Jay squealed softly, pointing a trembling, defensive finger at them. "I am a human being! A tired, exhausted human being who just wants to close her eyes for one hour! Mariano Corporate will not collapse if I sleep!"
"It's about discipline," Aries argued, his voice booming slightly. "Keifer is already handling the Watson Empire's side of the merger today without a single complaint. If your fiancé can do it, you can sit up and read a file."
"Then go marry Keifer if you love his discipline so much!" Jay Jay said fiercely, her face burning an explosive shade of crimson as she snatched a sofa cushion and buried her face in it, completely refusing to move.
Jay Jay stormed away from the living room, leaving a grumpy Angelo and a strict Aries sighing in pure frustration behind her. She slammed her bedroom door shut and completely collapsed onto the mattress. She lay there, totally exhausted, her limbs spread out wide as she stared up at the ceiling, feeling completely drained by her corporate responsibilities and her first day of college.
Suddenly, a soft rustle at the balcony window caught her attention.
She blinked, turning her head just in time to see the window slide open smoothly. Keifer stepped into the room, looking devastatingly handsome. He had bypassed the strict security of the Fernandez house, scaling the wall just to see her.
"I miss you, Mrs. Watson," Keifer murmured, his dark eyes locking onto her tired face with that familiar, intense fire.
"I miss you too," Jay Jay whined, her dramatic anger instantly melting at the sight of him.
Keifer walked over to the bed and sat down on the edge. Jay Jay didn't hesitate. She scrambled over and climbed right onto his lap, wrapping her legs around his waist and burying her face in his neck. She began complaining like a toddler, her voice cracking hysterically. "Angelo and Aries are absolute tyrants, Keifer! They don't care that I'm sleepy. They keep yelling about Mariano Corporate and responsibilities! I just wanted a nap!"
Keifer let out a low, breathless chuckle, his massive hands anchoring her hips securely as he listened to her cute tantrums. He leaned back slightly, his gaze dropping to her flushed face and her pouty lips.
Keifer's POV
Watching her pout like a dramatic little marshmallow was doing dangerous things to my control. Her raspy voice vibrated against my skin, and every time she shifted on my lap, my blood burned hotter. I didn't care about the Fernandez family downstairs, and I certainly didn't care about her corporate files. I was completely tempted.
I leaned in, silencing her complaints with a deep, crushing kiss, dominating her lips roughly as I always did. She gasped against me, her hands instantly tangling in my hair as the stress of the day began to fade. My hands slid down to the hem of her shirt. I needed to feel her skin. Slowly, deliberately, I peeled the fabric over her head and tossed it aside, leaving her in just her bra.
The fire in my chest was blinding. My cold palms cupped her breasts, feeling her heart hammering wildly against my touch. I leaned her back onto the mattress, my hands sliding down to unzip her trousers, smoothly pulling them off her legs until she was lying beneath me in nothing but her bra and panties. She looked breathtakingly beautiful, flushed and entirely mine. I deepened the kiss, bruising her lips with a relentless, possessive hunger, completely consumed by the urge to start a whole new session right then and there.
Jay Jay's POV
The moment he kissed me, the frantic energy of the day settled into something much more intense. Keifer always had a way of making me feel like I was the only person who mattered.
His touch was a familiar, scorching wave of heat that made my brain completely short-circuit. He was kissing me, his lips bruising mine with that absolute, unyielding dominance that always left me breathless. As his massive hands removed my shirt and trousers one by one, leaving me shivering in just my bra and panties, I completely melted into the mattress.
His heavy palms wrapped around my breasts, squeezing gently"Uhh, keifer".a weak gasp escaped my lips. I tried to pull back to speak, but he just gripped my waist tighter, kissing me even harder.
But then, a sharp, dull cramp suddenly bloomed deep in my lower abdomen.
No, please.God, how can I forget this,
My eyes snapped wide open. My brain rushed back to reality, realizing what day of the month it was.
"Keifer—wait! Stop!" I tried to squeal against his lips, but his mouth completely blocked mine. Desperate, I locked my fingers against his broad shoulders and pushed his muscular arms hard, using every bit of strength I had left to break the seal of his lips.
AUTHOR'S POV
Keifer finally stopped. He broke the kiss, breathing heavily as he hovered over her, his dark eyes locked onto her frantic face. He felt the sudden resistance in her small hands, his eyebrows snapping together in mild confusion.
"What happened, marshmallow?" Keifer growled softly against her lips, his voice thick with desire. "Are you tired?"
"No, I am just—" Jay Jay stammered, her face burning an explosive shade of crimson as she struggled to find the words.
Seeing her hesitate, Keifer leaned down, pressing his forehead against hers. His gaze softened completely, and he looked at her with a rare, incredibly cute pout of his own. "Then please... just one session? I promise I will not get rough this time. Please, marshmallow," he pleaded cutely, his deep register dropping into a sweet, coaxing murmur as his hands gently caressed her hips.
Jay Jay's heart did a violent flip at how adorable he was being, but reality was unyielding. She cleared her throat awkwardly, a wave of sheer hesitation washing over her.
"Keifer... I am on my periods!" she gasped out, pointing a trembling finger down at herself. "I literally completely forgot until just now!"
Keifer didn't even pause. He shrugged his massive shoulders lightly, his dark eyes locking onto hers. "It's okay, I don't have any problem with that."
Before she could even process his words, he leaned down and started kissing her again with a hot, hungry intensity.
"Mmh—Keifer, stop!" Jay Jay cried out, twisting her body and pushing against his chest with all her might. "But I have a problem! It's my first day! It literally just started now and I have really bad cramps!"
Keifer froze completely, his large hands stalling. The intense, stubborn fire in his eyes finally transitioned into a look of pure, protective devotion. He blinked, staring at her flushed, pained face as the words finally sank in.
Keifer froze completely, his large hands stalling right on her waist. The intense fire in his eyes didn't vanish, but it instantly transitioned into a look of pure, protective devotion. He blinked, staring at her flushed, embarrassed face before a low, breathless chuckle escaped his lips.
"Why didn't you say so from the start, marshmallow?" Keifer murmured shamelessly, shifting his massive weight off her so she wouldn't feel crushed. He sat up, reaching for her discarded shirt and gently helping her slide her arms back into the sleeves. "You should have led with that. I would have brought chocolates instead of just myself."
Jay Jay pouted fiercely, pulling the blanket all the way up to her chin to hide her matching bra and panties. "I was too busy complaining about my brothers! My brain is fried!"
"Well, consider the session officially cancelled," Keifer countered smoothly, pulling her fragile frame tightly against his warm, bare chest. He wrapped the heavy blanket securely around them both like a cocoon. "Tonight, we're just going to relax. No corporate talk, no brothers, just peace. Rest properly, wifey."
Jay Jay let out a soft, grateful sigh, finally closing her eyes and letting herself melt completely into his warm embrace.
Jay Jay fell into a deep, peaceful sleep, comforted by the solid warmth of Keifer's body next to her. But as the clock ticked past 1:00 AM, Keifer remained wide awake. The room was dark, illuminated only by the faint glow of his phone screen as he carefully placed a stealthy delivery order for her favorite comfort food and a fresh pack of overnight pads.
A short while later, a quiet notification buzzed in his palm. The delivery driver had arrived at the front gates of the Fernandez estate.
Moving with the silence of a shadow, Keifer slipped out from under the covers. He bypassed the high-tech security system he knew inside out and sneaked downstairs.
Checking every corner to ensure a grumpy Angelo or Aries didn't catch him, he quietly took the delivery at the side entrance. He slipped back up the stairs, sliding into her bedroom without making a single sound.
He placed the warm food on the nightstand, then climbed back onto the bed. Jay Jay let out a faint, pained whimper in her sleep, her brow furrowing from a sharp cramp.
Keifer gently pulled the blanket down to her waist. Rubbing his large palms together to warm them, he placed his heavy hands gently on her lower abdomen, applying a steady, comforting pressure. Slowly, his fingers began to massage her sore thighs and stomach, kneading away the deep, throbbing ache of her first day.
The soothing sensation woke her up. Jay Jay opened her eyes sleepily, looking at him through the dim light.
"Keifer... you don't have to do this," she whispered, her raspy voice filled with absolute gratitude. "You must be tired too."
"I want to, marshmallow," Keifer murmured softly, his deep register sending a comforting vibration through the quiet room.
"But—"
"No buts," he interrupted smoothly, leaning down to press a soft kiss to her forehead. "Only I love you. Now close your eyes."
Keifer's POV
I kept my hands moving in slow, rhythmic circles against her stomach, watching her features finally relax as the pain began to fade.
The room was completely still, and in the faint moonlight, I couldn't help but admire her face. Even completely exhausted, with her hair messy and her cheeks flushed, she looked absolutely stunning.
But it was her eyes that truly held me captive.
Looking into them even now, half-closed and groggy, they were filled with a profound, unwavering trust that shook me to my heart. A deep, overwhelming wave of warmth and pure adoration swelled in my chest. She was my absolute world, my beautiful marshmallow, and looking at her like this made me want to worship every single piece of her.
She trusted me blindly with her entire existence. And seeing her completely spent like this, fighting painful cramps after I had already pushed her body to its absolute limits the day before, filled me with a protective devotion that was almost overwhelming. She deserved to be cherished, cared for, and held like the precious treasure she was. I would gladly kneel on any floor, dismantle any obstacle, or stay up all night massaging her skin just to keep her safe and comfortable.
"Does it feel better, marshmallow?" Keifer asked softly, breaking his internal silence as his thumb lightly traced the soft skin of her waist.
"Mmh... yes," Jay Jay mumbled cutely, leaning her head deeper into his chest. She reached out, tangling her small fingers in the hem of his shirt. "Your hands are so warm. It feels like a heating pad."
"Good. That's exactly how they're supposed to feel," he murmured, his deep register dropping into a soothing, low whisper as he continued the gentle massage. "I'm not going anywhere, wifey. I'll stay right here until the pain goes away completely."
"You're a very attentive leopard tonight," she whispered, a sleepy, beautiful smile finally tugging at her pouty lips. "Maybe I don't hate you so much after all."
Keifer let out a low, breathless chuckle, his heart melting completely at her cute confession. He leaned down, pressing a tender, lingering kiss right against the crown of her messy hair. "Too late to change your mind now, Mrs. Watson. Eat the comfort food before it goes cold."
Jay Jay let out a long, contented sigh, completely safe and treasured in his embrace as she drifted back into a deep, cramp-free slumber.
