Ryker’s POV“We’re here.”I glanced at Claire for a moment as we entered the gate to the factory. Everyone was surprised at my sudden, unannounced arrival. I immediately stopped the pain and turned to Claire, facing her mirror and fixing her makeup.I smirked. “What are you doing?” I asked.“I’m fixing myself. I don’t want to look like your nanny when the employees see us,” she said without looking at me.I smiled at her as I watched her. Damn, I’ve never tried to have s-x outside the house, in a public place like on the side of the road, though I’ve been able to have sex inside the car. But all I can say is that doing that with the person I love feels good. It’s like a new adventure for both of us, which I know is also Claire’s first time—the most satisfying public s-x.I noticed Claire stop what she was doing. She slowly put her things back in her small bag.I frowned. “Are you done?”“I’m embarrassed because you’re staring at me.”“Because you are beautiful,” I said, smiling. I pul
Ryker's POV "Are you having fun?" I noticed a broad smile on Claire's lips while the manager's neighbors happily chatted. She seems to be enjoying herself. "Sir..." I turned to the man in front of me from the other side of the table. "Do you drink lambanog?" "Ahm..." I glanced at Claire. "Just a little." "Here, Sir, lambanog is the famous coconut wine we drink here at Laguna. Besides the beer, sometimes that makes the stomach big." The man chuckled. Later, he poured a white drink from the big jar into the small glass. When the man, Mang Kanor, placed the glass before me, it was as if my stomach lurched. I've had this before, and it's delicious. My only problem is that my stomach is weak from drinking too much sour food or drink. Maybe it's because I'm used to expensive drinks; besides, I get drunk quickly when I drink this local beverage. I don't want to mess up, and I don't want Claire to see me drunk. "Drink it, sir," Mang Kanor said. "That's delicious, Sir. The expensive win
–Warning: Mature Content–Claire's POVWhen Ryker breathed on my neck, my breathing got deeper. After he got tired of kissing my lips, he sniffed my neck. I won't be surprised if my scent suddenly goes away. I swallowed hard and felt the stiffness of my nips. I was only wearing thin clothes, so Ryker must have felt the hardness of the top of my breasts."Hmmmm.." I couldn't help but react when the hard object kept hitting my lower belly."Love, I want you so badly," Ryker muttered. "I want to feel you," he said in a hoarse voice full of desire."Ahh!" he said as he pressed his body against mine. The heat of Ryker's kiss gave me an exquisite feeling all over my body. Burning desire began to move through my body to my lower belly, and a thin thread of electricity started to tickle between my legs. Ryker was drunk, but the way he wanted me was slowly taking over my body. His tongue went down deep and moved with mine.I know now what lambanog tastes like. It built up within Ryker's lips w
Ryker's POV"Oh, God, my head hurts!"I woke up holding my head. It was morning, and I didn't even know it. I can't even remember how I got into this room.'I hate drinking that "lambanog."'I was about to get up when I felt someone's hand on my waist. The hot breath tickled my chest. Claire's head was sleeping soundly on my chest. I wasn't wearing any clothes and saw them on the floor. Since Claire's and my clothes are everywhere, we have nothing on our bodies now."God, I don't know what I did to my wife."I noticed a big bruise on his arm and a bite mark on his shoulder. He has a sore lip, too."Sh*t, what did I do?"I slowly got to my feet and removed the blanket from Claire's body. I saw Claire's body when the blanket covering her disappeared. I freaked out seeing the marks on his hip and around his buttocks. All of that is clear on her white skin.'Shit? Did I hurt him last night? Damn it! I can't remember!'I held my head. I carefully put the blanket over Claire's body so she w
Ryker's POV "I know you don't eat those, but they are delicious." I glanced at Claire, who then also glanced at the manager. "Ahm, I'm sorry. It's not because I don't want to eat; it's just that I don't eat anything in the morning except milk or coffee." Claire said. I frowned. "When have you not eaten?" "Since today," Claire said, then glanced at the manager. "I'm sorry, but I want coffee at the hut now." The manager nodded, and Claire stood up and left us. I took a deep breath. "Hmmm, I don't want to ask what happened between you two, but I think you need to court your wife," said the manager. I turned to the door. "Eat, Ryker. Dried fish is delicious with fried rice and coffee." - Claire's POV "I'm fine..." I sat in the chair and put the coffee cup on the table while I talked to Heiji on the phone. I called Russell several times, but she didn't answer her phone, probably still asleep. It's only a quarter before six, so Russell must be sound asleep. I took a deep breath whe
Ryker's POV "The company lost a lot of money." When I arrived at the office, I immediately called an emergency meeting. Thanks to Daniel, I found out who the thieves were in my company. "And you just told us this now?" "Have you investigated this?" "Who is the thief?" "I can answer your questions if you let me speak," I said, irritable. After what happened this morning, I couldn't hide my lousy mood. "Tess, call them." "Okay, sir." Tess immediately left the conference room, and we were left inside. "I investigated everything, and I got the names of the thieves in the company. Of course, everything started with overpriced projects approved by the accounting department, me, and all in-charge directors and managers." I explained. "They changed what was written in the signed project proposals. But don't worry; everything is fixed, thanks to my dear friend. I will not mention who it was. I will let you meet those bastards before the police lock them up." While waiting for Tess, the
Ryker's POV'Damn, I hate this!'I turned over on the sofa several times while I couldn't sleep, even if it was spacious. I'm not used to not having Claire by my side. It's like something is missing. That's why I can't sleep.I got up and sat on the sofa while still hugging the pillow. I took a deep breath. I needed to know what I had done. My conscience cannot silence me. I turned to the stairs.'What? The door is locked. Seriously?'When I went to the second floor and tried to turn the lock, it was locked. I couldn't believe he was seriously making me sleep on the sofa outside our room. I scratched the back of my head and was starting to get irritable. No woman has ever done this to me, not even my ex. I have never slept like this. I hurried down the stairs and looked for the duplicate keys. Seeing that made me smile, so I ran back to the second floor and tried to open the door, but it was surprising because no matter how hard I pushed, the door wouldn't open, as if something was blo
--Warning: Mature Content--Ryker's POV'Wow.'This was the first word that came out of my mouth when I saw the woman entering the restaurant. Her every movement is like slow motion. She pulled her shoulders back and down in a relaxed way that naturally changed how she held her head and ensured a long, sleek neck as she walked fiercely with a steady pace, keeping her strides long and smooth. Her confidence makes her powerful and commanding.I quickly stood up to meet her. "Hi!" I said this immediately as she approached, then quickly wrapped my arms around her back towards her hips and slightly pulled her closer to my body. She automatically grabbed both of my arms while her mouth was slightly open, staring at me."R-Ryker..." she whispered. "What are you doing?" She turned slightly toward the people inside the restaurant.I brought my face close to her ear and whispered. I whispered, "Damn, love, you're so beautiful. It looks like I'd rather make you my dinner than steak."Claire didn'
