SANTOS' SUITE*
Melanie just finished up with Santos face, he had to take his bath first before she treated his face and applied the necessary.
"Are you sure you got robbed?" She threw the question and Santos heart skipped a beat, but he framed it with a sad smile.
"What's there not to believe?" He asked.
"I'm just wondering, what they needed from you" Melanie said.
"They took money, what else?" Santos said.
"I'm so sad, your face is a total mess right now. They could have hit you somewhere else, not your face" She rolled her eyes.
"I know" he muttered and hugged her waist.
Then slowly he went for her lips, she kissed him back and he got rougher.
Melanie shut her eyes, enjoying the kiss while seeing nobody else but Kyros ln Santos face.
A moan escaped her lips and she wrapped her arms around his neck, how she didn't moan out that name remained a mystery.
But when Santos tried undressing her, she withdrew back.
"What's wrong?" He asked.
"I'm not in the mood for this" She muttered.
"Why?"
"You spoiled my mood of course, with your face looking like this,you need rest" She said.
Santos smiled.
"I know you're worried about me, but I can't even wait..."
Melanie shook her head.
"No" She said and before Santos could speak again, she walked out of the room.
Santos sighed out loudly and sat down on the bed.
He can't really remember the last time they had sex, she's always giving one excuse or the other, how can married couples stay without having sex for months?
He can't even remember the last time, and now she's not in the mood??
What the fuck is wrong with her? She's not thinking of leaving him right?
He might just die If that ever happens. He loves her too much to allow that.

NEXT MORNING*
Diora woke up to find just her on the bed, Kyros probably left already.
She yawned tiredly and wished she could just skip school, but since she already missed one day,she couldn't afford to do the same again.
Besides, she's got something to take care of, Morana and her test score.
"Good morning ma'am" A maid walked in.
"Thanks" Diora managed to sit up on the bed.
"Breakfast is served already ma'am, please come on and eat" She directed.
Diora opened her mouth to talk, what if Oceane prepares something for her as well?
"You don't have to worry, Oceane wouldn't make breakfast, she knows you would eat here" The maid said, as if she listened to Diora's thought and concern.
"Oh, thank you"
Diora got down from the bed and slide her feet into the flip flops before heading to the dinning room, the breakfast was something light but delicious.
After eating, she left Kyros suite to go get ready for school.

LARKSPUR*
Morana stepped down from her car and locked it back, she tucked her hair behind her hair as she walked, waving back at the students greeting her.
She was already approaching her office when another staff stopped in front of her.
"You have a visitor waiting"
"Really? Where?" Morana asked.
"Your office"
"Oh" Morana nodded and wondered who the person is, must be something important to the point of waiting for her.
She got to her office in no time and opened the door carefully, looks empty as she walked in.
"You're late" The voice sent shivers down her spine.
She flinched and to the direction the voice came from.
Kyros walked closer, his hands inside his pockets as usual.
"Ky...Kyros" She stuttered.
"Kyros?" He raised his brows with a frown on his face.
"I mean, Duke"
Kyros sighed and looked around the office.
"How long have you been working here?" He asked.
"Four years" Morana muttered.
"I guess you don't love your job Morana" He moved closer and she immediately shifted back.
The office was covered up with his dark and cold aura, she was shaking, she was scared.
"I do"
"Then, why did you do that? To her score" Kyros asked calmly, he was looking around rather than being focused on her.
"I...I'm sorry. I'm just,jealous of the fact that you abandoned me because of her" Morana muttered.
Kyros nodded.
"If I don't receive her text in one hour that she got the right score, see yourself as a living dead Morana" He mumbled and approached the door.
"And" He paused.
"Stay away from her" he said softly.
"You know I hate repeating myself"
"I understand" Morana's lips trembled.
Kyros used his cap and face mask before walking out of the office, He's not ready to get any attention from the students at all.
Not yet, not now.
Meanwhile, Maliah was walking with her sisters when she caught a glimpse of him.
Even with that cap and mask, she recognized him.
"Go on without me" She told Rona and Sitara then walked away,fast.
She caught up with Kyros in the parking lots.
"Hey Duke" she called from the back and Kyros turned to see her smiling at him.
He raised his brows.
"You are in a hurry?" Maliah asked.
"What do you want?" Kyros asked.
"Buy me breakfast" Maliah said in a clear and sharp voice.
Kyros was yet to reply when she entered the car, he said nothing and also got in, then drove away.

Diora smiled brightly as she checked her test score again, she got 17 out of 20.
"He did it" She smiled and quickly sent him a message.
"I guess something good happened" Martins said from the front.
"Yeah" Diora nodded.
That was when she noticed they are almost in school, as Martins drove into the lots, Diora saw Angelo's car came in too.
"Baby!" Angela rushed over to hug her as she came out with Martins.
"Morning" Diora smiled.
"How about the test?" Angela asked with concern.
"17" Diora grinned.
"Finally!" Angela gasped and hugged her again.
"Hi Dior" Angelo greeted.
"Morning Angelo" Diora waved at him also.
Angelo rolled her eyes at Martins before walking away with Diora.
Martins scoffed.
"My sister is quite dramatic" Angelo said and Martins looked at him.
"I know, I'm not worried" he said and Angelo chuckled.
"What's the name?"
"Martins"
"I'm Angelo"
"I know"
"Then, see you around" Angelo said and Martins nodded, watching as he walked away.
