Meanwhile, back in the hotel suit.
Two Men were engrossed in a conversation, as they sat in opposite direction. "you sure are fast. You've got sister in-law trapped already," Collins tattled with interest as he looked at the smiling face of Daniel.
"that's not the word, you know?" Daniel replied sending him a cocky look.
Collins scoffed at his friend, "Oh please." But continued anyways, "So how was your night? Did you and sister in-law...?" he was cut off by the cold glare Daniel was giving him as he scratched his neck meekly.
Noticing the serious atmosphere, Collins sat straight with a serious look on his face as Daniel passed the file to him. "I want you to return to the base. And get this done for me."
Taking the file from Daniel, he flipped it through with surprise on his face, "T-this?" he looked at Daniel imploringly. Seeing him nod, he asked, "are you sure, the higher ups will approve this marriage? You know we can't marry just anybody right?"
With a scowl on his face, Daniel stood up, slipping his hands into his pocket. "That's not for them to decide, this is just formality. And I believe there is someone sabotaging my retirement, it's almost as if they don't want me to."
There was a frown on Collins' face as he looked at the cold faced man before him, "do you think it has something to do with your..."
"who else do you think will benefit from it?" Daniel threw him a look, affirming his speculation.
After making sure that he packed everything, Daniel sent his things to Lana's apartment. Apparently, he was going to stay at her place. He knew how stubborn Lana could be, so instead of convincing her to move in with him in a completely different house; he'll just move into hers. That way, they could cultivate their feelings for each other, he thought with a light smile.
Standing by the balcony as he gazed outside, Daniel knew, they were going to face obstacles in their marriage due to his other Identity. 'but so, what?' he thought. He was there to protect her from any harm there'd be.

Through-out the drive back home, Daniel's thoughts were, all on Lana. how was he going to explain his identity, if Lana ever asked of him; on one side, his heart sided telling her the truth and the other, his mind decided to make her fall in love with him before telling her the truth.
Pulling into the house, he turned off the ignition, grabbed the bouquet of flowers he bought for her and made his way into the apartment. He walked to their room, ready to present her flower. When his eyes bulged at the naked figure, humming and dancing happily. Cupping his hand to his lips, he cleared his throat noisily and tried to gain her attention, as a smirk found a place on his face.
Startled, a scream fell off her lips, "what are you doing here? Close your eyes!" Lana turned around flustered, as she tried to find something that could cover her up. Her cheeks were flushed as she muttered curses, scrambling to wear her clothes. How can she forget the fact, she was no more a single woman! 'Calm down. Calm down its normal and he is your husband, right? He did not see everything right?
Ahhhh! How frustrating,' she thought. 'How will she face him now?'
HOTEL LUVARAAt the same time, in a hotel room, two bodies were clearly entangled, going at it like rabbits in heat. The well furnished room, did not do well to cover the sounds of activities happening in the room. The low grunts of a man and the high pitched moans of the woman combining with the squeaking sound of the bed. Were heard Clearly, by those in the next room.Clearly,the people inside were totally unconcerned about the disturbance they were creating as anybody passing by their door would blush in shame."Ahhhh! Yes. Yes! right there! I Love you so much Jo-shh!"Embracing the woman in his arms, bids of sweat trickle down the man's body as his thrust became sloppier. Reaching his climax, Josh let out a loud groan after thrusting for one last time, he collapsed beside her pulling her into his arms.With a wronged look on her face, the woman started sniffling as tears drip
The door pushed open to reveal a middle age, lady as she walked into the office with a file. "Miss Lana, here are the documents you requested for." Arriving at the desk, Melda said as she handed the file over to Lana. Lana opened the file with a frown, "who changed the models?!" she questioned her assistant sternly. "Miss Lana..." Melda relied with a troubled look. "The Models that were chosen for the show backed out and the show is only next week. Some were to renew their contract but they refused, even Irene pulled out of the contract without care at all. She said she would compensate the company..." Lana was trying hard not to get angry, as she rubbed her forehead frustratingly, "Melda, you can't just make decisions because you want to. And how come those Models decide to pull out now?!" Just then, Alex walked in majestically as she smiled widely at her, "what's, wrong sis? you do look angry." Her smile widened feeling satis
When Lana got home, it was already 7pm. She had been so occupied, working on the final draft of the designs that she missed several calls from Daniel.As she got inside, she thought he would question her lateness but instead, he dragged her towards the dinning, and fed her food, spoon by spoon, filled with delicacies. She didn't realize she had eaten more than she could take as the food was so delicious. After the dinner, Lana wanted washing the dishes but was stopped by Daniel as he shook his head, telling her to go freshen up and take a rest.Who would have thought, that she would one day experience a man's doting; She thought, smiling happily as she made her way to their bedroom.When Daniel finished washing the dishes, he went upstairs. Opening the door to their room, he admired his wife's beauty. She must have been so tired as she fell asleep immediately after bathing leaving her hair slightly wet. Her sleeping posture was funny cause, she laid sprawled on the bed,
"My dear, are we going to hold the engagement on the same day of the banquet? Wouldn't that..." Mrs. Lang questioned worriedly. Although she did not like her Daughter, because she was a reminder of her past. A past she hated so much. What people did not know, was that she was raped when she was engaged to her husband. Back then, when she found out she was going to be in an arranged marriage, she ran away. She wanted the love that was in fairytales, so she left home and went to a foreign country.She remembered that night, she was supposed to meet up with her friends, when she got pulled to an alley far away from the club they were to meet. She was violated by a stranger. she couldn't even see his features. Broken, she went back to her family but was forced to marry Joseph Lang.Although, she managed to hide the fact, she was pregnant from her husband, somehow, he managed to know the truth after Lana was born. Though he was infuriated, he couldn't divorce her because of
"What's up? Baby brother." Lana answered, placing the phone on her ears. She had just gotten out from the kitchen, when she received a call from her younger brother. Timothy Lang, was her younger brother by 3 years, though mischievous at times; their relationship could be defined as amiable. She loves her brother no matter how their parent's, treats them differently. Timothy was the baby of the family, since he was brought up as the heir. He was sent abroad for studies and although they do talk once in a while, it has been a long time since she last heard his voice. She did not even know when he'd come back."Sister, I'm back." An exciting voice resounded from the phone. "Back? Back from... Wait, do you mean you're back home?"A young male voice chuckled at the other end, "yes, I am back. Sister, don't you miss me? I wanted to surprise you but I didn't find you at home. Heard you moved out."Daniel leaned on the door with his arms crossed. A distracted Lana coul
Just like that, the week passed by and the day for the fashion show was getting nearer. With the help of her friends, Lana was able to get the models for the show. And also, with the help of her colleague, all the dresses were completed with little adjustments.Lana stood outside her backyard, admiring the small garden behind the house, as a cool breeze blew pass her. She arranged her slightly ruffled hair, then picked up the watering-can to water the flowers. When a voice sounded behind her, "Look, who came to see you."As she turned around, Nanny Wang side stepped, to reveal a figure behind her... 💕💕Behind a desk, a Man with an exceptional face sat on his chair, typing on his laptop with utmost seriousness. When a knock sounded from the door."Come in!" A cool male voice was heard.A young man of 23 years, walked in towards the Man behind the desk, "Sir, I have gotten the information about the girl.""Ehn. Drop it on the desk." The secretary kept the f
THE NEXT DAY - Daniel was by the window, his left hand shoved in his left pocket. His tensed figure indicating the seriousness of the conversation, as he stood straight in his track pant.Noticing a presence behind him, his figure turned turgid, he said something into the phone before ending the call.The chirping sounds of the bird and the cool breeze calmed him, when a voice brought him out of his thoughts."You're leaving?" Daniel turned to Lana, his Cold face softens as he met her gaze. With a quirky brow, an undescribable emotion smeared on her face."Ehn. Something like that." Daniel pulled her into his arms, using his right hand to caress her smooth and soft waist. "How much did you hear?""Enough to know, you are having some troubles and you're going to leave soon!"He chuckled in her ear as he nibble on her exposed neck. "Don't worry, I won't be leaving so soon. Not when I don't have you under me singing to my rhythms.""Y-you!"Lana pushed h
“Sister? You came to see, Big brother Josh, right? Then who might this be?” The fair lady said meekly, leaning on the young Man beside her.(scuffs) ‘what a hypocrite!’ While they were busy with their drama, Lana was pretty good stuffing her belly with food.Alex grew vexed, as she was being ignored. she almost stumped her foot in anger, but stopped luckily when she saw the face of the Man, seated Calmly with an imposing and noble aura.‘Humph, Lana, I’ll make this Man leave you. When he realizes, you have a fiancé but still got together with him. I just imagine how disgusted, he will be and then I will make him mine.’Daniel glanced indifferently at them and then to the uneasy guard, standing right by the door. “Throw them out.” No too much words, just straight to the point. Josh stood arrogantly, his eyes calm seemingly accessing Daniel who paid them no attention as if they were not worth his time. “Arrogant!” Josh spat out, with contempt. “Who is this, Lana?” he w
