Chapter 198: Bliss*

Rain woke up in an exceptionally good mood, especially when the first thing she saw was Alexander’s face, watching her quietly as he held her in his arms.

She smiled, murmuring, "Good morning. What time is it? How long have you been watching me?"

"It’s early, just past five. Go back to sleep," he hummed, pressing a gentle kiss to her forehead.

She smiled, realizing she could actually take it easy for the day. She called Jane last night to say she’d be taking the day off today, but she still planned to work remotely. She just asked Jane to send over the files for her next case.

With a small pout, she muttered, "We still need to get back soon. I don’t want to slack off, especially now that I’m using your surname. I plan to visit some witnesses..."

Alexander chuckled, pulling her closer. "What’s so funny?" she grumbled. "I’m serious. I want the Lancaster name to be respected in the Court of Justice," she added, her voice filled with determination.

"Alright," he whispered with a tired smile. "How about one more hour of sleep, then breakfast, and we can leave by seven?" He stifled a yawn and said, "I can’t help it... I kept waking up just to look at you. So yeah, I’m a bit sleep-deprived right now. It’s hard to rest when all I want is to devour you," he admitted, not hiding his thoughts.

"Four days will pass before you know it," she teased with a mischievous smile. "Don’t worry, I’ll crawl all over you naked the moment it’s over."

Alexander groaned, and she laughed softly, snuggling closer. She wasn’t just teasing; she was already planning exactly how to serve herself as the ultimate temptation for him once her period ended.

Rain dozed off with Alexander, and this time, the sun was already up when she woke to an empty bed. Hearing the shower from the bathroom, she guessed Alexander was inside.

She brushed her teeth and then picked up her phone, noticing a lot of missed calls last night. Her heart sank when she saw many were from the staff at Haven Orphanage. She opened their messages and bit her lip.

Wilma: "Rain, are you alright? Come by; I asked Ayah to make your favorite beef noodles soup."

Rosa: "Rain, the kids are asking about you. When will you visit? Don’t forget, you’re always welcome to stay like you used to. We miss you."

More messages from the kids made her smile, and her eyes welled up.

Ayah: "It’s me, Mia. I borrowed Cook Ayah’s phone. Carl and Philip are fighting again. Carl says you need to come and represent him in court because Philip hit him."

"These brats!" Rain chuckled, wiping her tears.

Just then, Alexander came out, his hair slightly wet, with only a towel around his waist.

"What’s wrong?" he asked, worry etched on his face as he approached her quickly, noticing her tears.

"Oh, it’s nothing. These are just messages from the orphanage staff and kids. I guess they’re worried. Maybe they saw the news on TV yesterday..." she said with a smile. She took the towel from his hand and, tiptoeing, began drying his hair.

"Orphanage?" he asked. "Yes, Haven Orphanage. I practically grew up there and spent more time there than in my father’s mansion," she replied, smiling.

"Oh, I see... I know that orphanage," he said. Rain paused, holding the towel draped around his neck. She tugged it, bringing Alexander’s face closer.

"Of course, you know it," she grumbled. "The founder and owner is Mrs. Summer Cartier."

Alexander chuckled. "Well, they’re family friends... Remember, Arlan’s a close friend of my father."

She raised an eyebrow. "And I also remember that their daughter, Carla Cartier, is your ex-girlfriend." Rain wasn’t actually upset; she was just being a little petty, curious to see how Alexander would react. As usual, he was unfazed.

"So? Carla’s part of my past, and it’s not like I can erase her from my life," he calmly replied. Then he leaned in, kissing her gently before murmuring against her lips, his eyes locked on hers, "But aren’t you my present and future? Isn’t that what matters?"

Once again, Rain felt herself melting. This man really knew how to handle her with such ease and care. She grinned, wrapping her arms around his neck. "Of course... you’re stuck with me forever!"

Alexander chuckled, leaning in to give her a light kiss, but he quickly deepened it, holding the back of her neck as his lips moved over hers with a slow, unhurried passion.

He took his time, his mouth exploring hers as he teased and sucked gently on her upper and lower lips until they were left slightly swollen. Rain moaned softly, feeling the unmistakable hardness of his groin pressing against her.

Enveloped in his warmth, she barely noticed as her nightgown slipped off her body, leaving her with only her underwear with a sanitary pad in place.

Alexander released her lips, leaving her breathless, a gasp escaping her as he began to lick and trail kisses along her jawline and neck. "No hickeys, please," she pleaded hoarsely. He followed as he descended to her clavicle and then to her chest instead, licking and suckling with an intensity that made her shiver.

He lifted her effortlessly, sitting on a chair and guiding her to sit on his lap. She straddled him. She arched her body against him, feeling his hands cup and knead one of her breasts while his tongue danced playfully over her taut nipple, suckling it like a starving baby.

"Alexander," she called, the sensations overwhelming her. She found herself tugging at his hair, her body instinctively brushing against him.

"That’s it, Rain. Just see if you can find your release like before, just by riding me like that," he encouraged, his voice thick with desire.

"Oh, Rain... I can’t wait to be inside you and make your body all mine," he murmured feverishly against her skin, his voice thick with desire as he moved to lick her other nipple.

It felt exhilarating riding him, and she found herself wondering how it would feel to have him inside her. Her cheeks flushed with heat as she imagined it.

His boldness only heightened her arousal, stirring something primal within her. She followed his encouragement, moving in rhythm with him, her breaths quickening as she approached the edge of ecstasy.

Just as she thought she might burst, her body jolted, and she was overtaken by a wave of pleasure, an all-too-familiar ecstasy reminiscent of the climax he had helped her achieve before when she had been drugged with Erotoxin.

The sensations crashed over her, sending her spiralling into bliss as she felt the world around her fade away.
