Chapter 12"Leave," Aemon commanded in his tough voice. There is so much authority from him. Those eyes were so cold that it could make you shiver. "Lily, are you not gonna spe—""Why? Did you speak about my father's death, huh?" Lily asked back with a weak smile on her lips. Like a bomb, she can explode anytime if only Aemon isn't here. Her hands were curled so that she could already feel her nails buried on her palms. The anger from her cannot be hidden anymore. She despises them so much. Aemon pulled her behind him, covering her from the two of them. After the death of her father, this is the first time that someone finally stood for her. Seeing Aemon protecting her like this makes her calm and feel the power she already has as a Cooper. "Of course, we're leaving." Her Uncle said and smirked before hiding his hands inside his pockets. He even glanced at his niece, giving her a threat and a warning from his eyes. Lily met those eyes but he failed to scare her. "Lily," her mother

Chapter 14"Excuse me," Lily said and stood up, refusing to wait for their response. They were all eyeing her as she went out of the room. The conversation was heavy and intense. His cousins are introducing her to their real chaotic world. Pulling her into the real movements of their life that she must live as well. "We're serious, Aemon." Leonora said as they continued eating together after Lily left. "I know you're serious. But you don't have to rush Lily, you know that it is not easy to accept this world." He said in distress and simply threw the napkin on the table. Everything's hard for him. He could not pull her in with all of this because he's d*mn anxious that she will be near death even more. "Our enemies are lingering around her," Rafael said, wearing his blank eyes. "They are just waiting for the perfect time to use her against you."Before all of this happened, his problem was about finding a bride for him to marry. Now that it has been solved as he met Lily at the fune

Chapter 16Since that day Lily received the death threat, it didn't stop anymore. Each day is a nightmare for her. Death threats will greet her in the morning and there are times that it will end her day. It was just red envelopes before not until she began to receive different colors with different handwriting. "Why don't you tell him?" Mica asked when she handed her another death threat she received today. Lily smiled weakly as she took a heavy breath. "It's a black one today," she uttered, taking it as a joke when she was shivering in fear. What is it today? She is only waiting for them to execute these threats she has been receiving. Starting that day, she fears her life every day. "I am sure he won't let this slide," Mica added and tried to stop her from reading it again and again. Lily chose to tell Mica about the threats so she could give all of it to her. She knows that Aemon won't let her read the threats if she will not do this. But then, after receiving it each day, she

Chapter 18Lily fell asleep as Aemon carried her in the room. To hear what she said hurts him. It's like a knife stabbed on his chest. He feels weak to find out what Lily felt all along. Well, she was being true. He hasn't told her anything about him, even the darkest past he has. While Lily, she kept telling him everything, showing her how torn she is. "Stop it," Paul said when they were both getting drunk. Aemon called him to be here just to drink with him. He did not listen and continued drinking. "You can't blame her, Aemon. She's your wife but you're being a stranger to her," Paul said and yawned. "It's hard to tell everything, especially the past I have. I'm not over it," he clenched his jaw and massaged his forehead. "Well, you have to. This marriage won't work if you will always set a huge boundary between both of you." "I need time, Paul...I thought that was what we need," he sighed as he smirked weakly. The next morning, Lily was alone in the room when she woke up. The

Chapter 20"Invade me, Aemon Cooper." As soon as she muttered that, Aemon blocked her lips with his lips. Their tongues began to fight like swords. She could not help herself but to close her eyes while feeling all his touch. His hands are traveling all over her body. He even removed all her clothes in one snap. She just found herself naked in front of him. "Sh*t, Aemon." Lily cursed when he licked her neck while massaging her prestigious mountains. "Ahhh! Ohhh!" she moaned when Aemon licked her nipples like a lollipop. He doesn't look like a man with no experience. All his moves give her so much pleasure that she can't help but to scream her moan. "I'm coming in, Lily." He whispered while they were both chasing their breathing. She spread her legs wide open and was prepared to be marked by Aemon. "What are you waiting for?" she asked when Aemin froze for a while and hesitated to do it. "Are you virgin?" he asked all of a sudden. Is he really asking this in the middle of what th
