~~~~~ Ace's Mansion ~~~~~ Night.
Alix walked back into Ace's room after taking her bath, a towel was hanging from her chest to her waist. Her flaming red hair was wet and stuck to her face, she held a towel in her hand using it to dry her hair. She had searched through Ace's room but found no clothes she could wear.
Walking towards the door, she attempted to open it and walk out of the room to her room or find a maid to get her some clothes when Ace entered the room. Her lips parted in surprise and shock, she quickly veered around showing her back to him.
Ace cleared his throat in embarrassment when he saw she was still naked, preferably half naked he would say. "I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to leave the bathroom like this. There were no clothes for me in the bathroom, so I wanted to get some." Alix muttered to clear confusion in the air.
Ahem! "Oh! Sorry, I will ask the maid to get you some clothes. Wait here don't come outside." Ace mumbled walking towards the door. Not before his eyes racked through her slim and long legs, she turned her back to him so he couldn't get a proper glimpse of her body.
He swallowed the loop in his throat, before paddling his way out of the room. Alix breathed out in relief when he finally out of the room, her fave reddened in total embarrassment.
After some time, the maids came in with her clothes "young miss, the master said you should come to the dining room for dinner." One of the maids muttered. "Okay, you may leave," Alix responded nodding her head to their words, and they all left her alone.
After some time Alix was done getting dressed, she was dressed in a short blue gown that went with her eyes. Her long legs were on display, she packed her hair into a beautiful ponytail before stepping out of the room barefooted.
~~~~~
Meanwhile in the dining room, Ace was waiting for Alix to come down so they could have dinner. His eyes were on his phone but when he heard footsteps coming toward the dining room, he raised his eyes and gawked at Alix.
Her long legs exposed did nothing to hide every bit of sexiness in her body, Ace's eyes drifted downward and he stared at her barefooted legs.
Alix stood still while Ace evaluated her, she felt like a student being scolded by her teacher. The air in the dining room was equally warm, making it easy for her to ease herself.
"Come here." Ace muttered referring to Alix which jolted Alix out of her thoughts.
"Me?" Alix questioned with wide eyes, she glanced around to see if they were anyone besides her right there.
"Yes you, come here before I lose it." Ace mumbled in a cold and freezing tone, his eyes were equally cold as well.
Alix nodded her head and quickly walked toward him, she paddled her way in nervous steps him.
When she got closer to Ace, he stretched out his hand making her close her eyes in reflex. But instead, he pulled her to sit on his legs, glancing at her bare foot.
He momentarily forgot what he was doing and the cold air around him disappeared.
Alix sat shell-shocked at what he had just done, she wanted to turn back to stare at him but decided against it. She was embarrassed, her cheeks turned rosy in no time.
"You there, get me a pair of slippers for her." Ace ordered the closest maid who quickly nodded and rushed out of the room.
"Why did you walk around barefoot? You could catch a cold from walking barefoot" Ace scolded after the maid left the room, his eyes had a little bit of warmth in them.
"Eh, I didn't mean to walk around like that. The floor was warm and i- I forgot about it." Alix defended herself when she thought he was going to scold her.
"You have to go back home tomorrow, don't catch a cold while you are still here. Else it would seem I maltreated you here." Ace muttered nonchalantly when he saw the maid approaching.
Alix rolled her eyes at his words, he talked like he didn't maltreat her in the first place.

~~~~~ Coco Beach ~~~~~
Mr. Hawthorne stood outside his vacation house, a stick of Cigarette in his hands. He was staring silently into the night sky, his other hand hanging on the balcony.
Jace walked onto the balcony of the house, "Uncle, you called for me?" Jace questioned standing behind his uncle.
"Pick up a stick kid, hope I am not interrupting your time with your lovely wife." Mr. Hawthorne muttered with a teasing smile tugging at the edge of his lips, he looked completely different from his prim and proper appearance before people.
"Don't say that Uncle, she just gave birth so I can't possibly spend more time with her. She needs to take care of the baby too." Jace mumbled with a smile on his lips. He picked up his stick as his uncle told him to, lit it up, and placed it on his lips.
"Child you are good, tsk! I wonder why my stupid son can't be like you, he so annoying." Mr. Hawthorne remarked in a cold tone. "If that bastard won't get married, then I think I have to force him to get married." He added puffing air out of his mouth.
"Uncle, I don't think you should force brother. He might end up doing something we might all regret in the end, not overlooking the fact that HE is in town." Jace remarked.
Mr. Hawthorne turned to Jace, surprise was evident in his eyes. "He is back? That's quick, what does he want now? Has he done anything worth attacking him for?" Mr. Hawthorne questioned.
He threw the cigarette in his hands on the floor and smashed it with his foot, "I don't know the reason uncle, he looks calm for the while. I think he wouldn't do something that may end up detrimental for him." Jace explained not to give his uncle any reason to worry.
"I think you should get your hands off these matters now, you have a wife and kid now got it." Mr. Hawthorne ordered in a strict tone. "Uncle....."
Jace trailed off but Mr. Hawthorne interrupted his words, "listen to me kid, I don't you should involve yourself in these matters. I don't want to lose another son" Mr. Hawthorne with a distant expression in his eyes.
"Uncle, stop blaming yourself for whatever happened. It's all in the past now, let's focus on the present and make good memories." Jace mumbled patting his uncle on his shoulders.
"You don't have to worry about my wife and kid too, I will keep them safe no matter what happens," Jace added, his lips stretched out into a pretty smile.
Mr. Hawthorne gazed at his nephew, the painful expression in his eyes diffused into thin air. "Let's go get some rest now uncle, we don't want auntie looking all over the place for you," Jace remarked and he nodded.
They both walked out of the balcony with smiles on their faces, Mr. Hawthorne sincerely hoped everything would be alright. Jace thought he had to see his cousin soon.
~~~~~ Ace's Mansion ~~~~~
The next day came faster than Alix expected, she couldn't catch any sleep throughout the night. She was disturbed and feeling anxious, she hoped he would let her go home.
Alix climbed down from her bed, she had moved back to her room the previous night after dinner. Her hair looks like a bird's nest, she walked into the bathroom to quickly take her bath, brush her tooth and get ready.
After taking her bath, she walked out of the bathroom with a towel on her chest. She paddled her way into the walk-in closet, searched for the clothes to wear, and walked out after getting dressed.
She had on a black gown just a little underneath her knees, packed her hair into a messy bun, and wore pairing black heels to go with the gown. She stood in front of the mirror and twirled around happily numerous times.
A knock sounded at her room door jolting her out of her fantasies, "Coming...." Alix muttered and ran towards the door to open it. When she opened the door, she was met with two maids standing.
"What is it? Why are you here?" She questioned with raised brows, they had weird expressions on their faces.
The two maids both glanced at each other trying to decide who was going to break the news to her, their fingers twirled nervously.
"What is wrong? Did something happen? Why are you so nervous?" Alix bombarded them with questions. She felt extremely nervous that they were behaving like this `is he going to back out of his promise? Won't he let me go back home?`
Alix thought worriedly making tears pool in her eyes, her eyes immediately became watery.
"Young miss, the master asked us to call you down. It's a quite urgent miss." One of the maids mumbled after mustering up enough courage.
"Why?" Alix mumbled her realizing it.
"It seems the missing family is here to take you back home, the situation downstairs is extremely awkward and....." Before the maids could finish their words, Alix was out of their sight.
They both turned and saw Alix running down the stairs in happiness, they sighed before going back to their duties.
Alix ran off immediately after he heard her family was downstairs, and she was filled with happiness and excitement.
Running down the stairs, her messy bun became even messier. When she got to the last stair leading to the living room, a blast of cold air hit her. She immediately felt the chill in the air.
"Oh no, this is not good. Lycan will kill him before he can even talk." Alix mumbled to herself in worry, two chibi versions of herself immediately appeared on her should.
Chibi Angel: Do you think he will get scared just because of dad?
Chibi Devil: No he won't, he won't get scared. After all, he is more menacing than dad.
Alix glanced at the two chibi in confusion, "Alix come here" She heard a cold tone that jolted her out of her thoughts.
