With her still straddling him and her face resting on his shoulder. Ethan hugged her body as rubbed her bareback with his hands and occasionally drew circles on her lower back. Kissing her bare shoulder from ti to ti.

Petal rubbed her face against his warm skin like a small kitty searching for warmth. Burying her face in his neck. She inhaled his calming scent, feeling relaxed. The only thing that bothered her was the feeling of coldness that she started to feel.

Ethan felt her shiver in his arms. A sign that she was cold. Reaching for the blanket, He warped it around her necked body to warm her and she was glad that he did that because she doesn’t want to move from this position. The mont felt peaceful. With her in his arms. Ethan felt that he had everything that he needed.

Strongly, Both didn’t fall asleep but spent the ti cuddling the sun rose high in the sky. At nine in the morning. Petal took a quick shower followed by Ethan. After the shower. They headed towards the kisses to prepare breakfast.

Jacob who just woke up had a headache as he had a hard ti falling asleep. Entering the kitchen, He saw Petal and Ethan standing by the oven making pancakes. But what made him roll his eyes wasn’t that, But the fact that they were fooling around, Feeding each of the ready pancakes, In his kitchen!

Shaless couple. Jacob muttered under his breath.

From the corner of his eyes, Ethan glanced at Jacob who just entered the kitchen. Noticing this. Petal turned around to see what he was looking at and imdiately her face reddened.

How embarrassing!

"Good morning." She greeted him trying to push her embarrassnt away.

Ethan and Jacob’s eyes t for a mont staring, more like staring hard at each other.

Petal looked at both of them noticing that it was Ethan who started, She glared at him. "Why are you doing that?" She asked him. signaling, angry at him.

Ethan raised an eyebrow as he looked at her but she only glared at him harder, not backing away.

Jacob wanted to laugh watching the silent staring war between the couple.

"Okay. I’m sorry." Ethan was the first to give up, raising the white flag knowing how hard his head could be.

Petal sighed, shaking her head hopelessly."Jacob is my brother. Treat him with the sa respect as ." Petal said. signaling.

"Guys, Can we just have breakfast and... Oh... okay, I’ll just shut up." Jacob zipped his mouth when he reached a deadly glare from Petal.

Jacob is the last person that remained to her from her family. She won’t accept seeing him being treated disrespectfully and do nothing. No matter who this person was.

Ethan understands what he did wrong. He had gone too far this ti, stepping out of the line.

"I apologize. I was out of line." Ethan apologized to Jacob.

"No hard feelings. Man." Jacob replied scratching the back of his head.

Petal smiled at him, feeling satisfied. Walking towards him. Petal pressed a kiss on his cheek and then she walked back towards the oven.

Jacob couldn’t hold back the smile that appeared on his lips. The little shy Petal changed. More confident. Firm. and knows how to stand her ground. It felt proud seeing her likes.

After breakfast. Ethan left and Petal and Jacob stayed to clean the apartnt from the ss that happened last night.

"So, tell . Why are you hiding your relationship with him from his family?" Jacob asked as he gathered the broken glasses piece.

Petal who was brooming the floor, Turned to look at him shrugging her shoulders. "It’s for . I’m still getting used to the fact I’m his fiance. It’s still frightening to ." She replied, signaling.

"Do you feel pressured by the fact that he’s a mafia man?" Jacob asked her. hitting the sensitive subject that she tried to not even discuss with herself.

Petal and the broom on the wall took a seat on the sofa and Jacob joined her.

"He never treated

like that since we started dating. But there’s a part of

that it’s scared by this fact." She replied. signaling.

Petal never told Ethan about that fearing that she might hurt him.

"You an that you’re scared of the Mafia man, Ethan Wilson. The cold-blooded killer. You’re scared to see your father’s character in him." Jacob said what she could voice out. The fears that were in her mind.

Petal lowered her head. Jacob said right what was in her mind."It’s the first ti I’ve talked to soone about this." She said, signaling.

It felt easier to talk to Jacob. He’s the person that knows her best. He understands her without even the need to tell him.

"I don’t think that Ethan is like Henry. I saw how I looked at you. He adores you. He adores the ground that you walk on. He even apologized just because you asked him so. If that doesn’t prove anything. Then what will?" Jacob replied and asked her.

"Sotis I fear I betrayed my mother." Petal said. signaling.

Jacob pulled her in his arms. Kissing the top of her head."Olivia would be proud to see how much you changed and that you’re doing what you want. That was her wish. To see living happily." Jacob said.

After the talk with Jacob. Petal felt better. Her chest felt lighter. as if she was carrying a load in her chest and had it removed. Looking around the clean. Apartnt. She felt sad suddenly.

Jacob spends every night alone here with no one. It must be lonely. thinking about sothing. She went to her room looking for her phone.
