บท 66: Chapter 67: Sleeping Pills
Lisa's eyes sparkled.
"We'll see about that," she whispered.
Lugard's grin widened.
"Oh, I'm shaking in my boots."
He reached out, his fingers tracing her jawline.
Lisa's skin tingled, her pulse racing.
"You're playing with fire," she warned.
Lugard's eyes burned.
"I love the heat."
Suddenly, Lisa's phone buzzed.
She stepped back, breaking the spell.
"Saved by the bell," Lugard teased.
Lisa glanced at her phone.
"My friend Didi's calling," she said.
Lugard's expression turned serious.
"Answer it."
Lisa hesitated because of the angry tone of the ringing tone.
"Maybe it's important," Lugard pressed.
Lisa nodded, answering the call.
"Hey, Didi. What's up?"
Didi's voice was frantic.
"Lisa, you won't believe what's happening here!"
Lugard took the phone from Lisa's hand his voice was icy.
"She's busy tonight. You can talk tomorrow."
The words cut through the line.
Before Emma could respond.
Lugard ended the call.
Abruptly.
Emma's eyes widened.
Stunned.
She stared at her phone.
The screen read "Call ended".
A mix of emotions swirled.
Confusion. Concern. Frustration.
Did Lugard just hang up on her?
And what did he mean by "busy"?
Didi's mind raced.
Questions piled up.
She dialed Lisa's number again.
It went straight to voicemail.
"Busy" indeed.
Didi's gut told her there is something going on between the couple .
Lisa's eyes widened in shock.
"Mr Lu, what are you doing?" she demanded.
Lugard's expression remained cold.
"You're busy tonight," he repeated.
Lisa's anger flared.
"That's not your decision to make."
Lugard's gaze never wavered.
"I decide what happens in my estate."
Lisa's hands clenched.
"You can't control me."
Lugard's smile was icy.
"Oh, but I can."
Suddenly, Lisa's phone buzzed again.
Lugard's eyes narrowed.
"I'll handle it."
He answered the call, his tone firm.
"Miss woman, Lisa is indisposed. Do not call again tonight."
Emma's voice was audible through the speaker.
"Lugard, what's going on? Let me talk to Lisa."
Lugard's response was final.
"Tomorrow. Not tonight."
He ended the call, his gaze locking onto Lisa's.
Lugard's gaze roamed over Lisa's furious face.
"Ah, the rebel's back," he teased.
Lisa's scowl deepened.
"Stop it, Mr Lu." Don't interfere with my privacy, Lisa said angrily.
Lugard chuckled.
"Oh, you're adorable when angry."
He reached out, tracing her furrowed brow.
"Relax, little warrior."
Lisa's eyes flashed.
"Don't touch me."
Lugard's grin widened.
"Can't resist."
He leaned in, his breath whispering against her ear.
"You're so cute when you're mad."
Lisa's face burned.
"Stop. It. Now."
Lugard's laughter sent shivers down her spine.
"Or what?" he taunted.
Lisa's hands clenched.
"I'll—"
Lugard's lips brushed hers.
"Make me?"
Lisa's lips parted in surprise.
Lugard's kiss deepened, his tongue teasing hers.
She tried to push him away, but his arms wrapped around her.
Trapping her.
Lisa's resistance faltered.
Her body betrayed her.
Melting into his embrace.
Lugard's kiss grew hungrier.
Demanding.
Lisa's thoughts blurred.
She was lost in sensation.
Suddenly, Lugard released her.
Lisa stumbled back, gasping.
Lugard's eyes gleamed.
"You're not as immune as you thought."
Lisa's cheeks burned.
"Stay away from me."
Lugard chuckled.
"Oh, am your husband, I'm just getting started."
Lugard's lips capture her lips, never leaving her,
His kiss deepened, consuming her.

Her doubts.
Her heart.

Completely.
Lugard's whisper echoed.
"Mine."
He stopped and looked at Lisa, whose face was now flushed red like tomatoes. He carried her to the bed without another word.
Lisa struggled angrily. "How dare you!" she shouted, her fists pounding his chest.
Lugard's eyes never left hers, his gaze burning with intensity. He gently laid her on the bed, his movements deliberate and controlled.
Lisa's anger boiled over. "Put me down! This isn't funny, Lugard!"
Lugard's expression remained calm, but his voice took on a hint of possessiveness. "You're not going anywhere, Lisa."
Lisa's eyes flashed with defiance. "I won't be ordered around!"
Lugard's lips curved into a subtle smile. "We'll see about that."
Lisa's struggles intensified, but Lugard's grip remained firm.
"Let me go!" she demanded.
Lugard's smile widened.
"You're not ready to surrender?"
Lisa's eyes blazed.
"Never to you."
Lugard's chuckle sent shivers down her spine.
"We'll see."
He leaned in, his lips inches from hers.
Lisa's heart pounded.
"Don't," she whispered.
Lugard's breath caressed her ear.
"Too late."
His lips claimed hers, silencing her protests.
Lisa's resistance faltered.
Her body betrayed her.
Melting into his kiss again.
Lugard Kiss deepened, his tongue exploring Lisa's.

Lugard's hands roamed, tracing her curves.
Lisa's moan echoed, her resistance crumbling.
Their kiss grew hungrier, desire consuming.
Suddenly, Lugard broke away, gaze burning.
"Mine," he whispered.
Lisa's eyes fluttered open.
Her voice barely audible.
"Yes."
Lugard's smile claimed her lips again.
Their world narrowed to touch, taste, and desire.
But then, he suddenly stopped halfway.
Pulling back, his chest heaving.
He looked at Lisa, her eyes locked on his.
Without a word, he stood up.
And entered the bathroom to cool off.
The sudden separation left Lisa breathless.
Confused.
She sat there, her lips still tingling.
Wondering what had changed.
Lugard's sudden departure left Lisa breathless and bewildered.
She lay there, her lips still tingling from his kiss.
Confusion etched on her face, she whispered, "What just happened?"
The bathroom door closed behind Lugard, and the sound of running water filled the silence.
Lisa's thoughts swirled, trying to process the intensity of their moment.
She slowly sat up, her eyes fixed on the bathroom door.
Why did he stop? Did he regret it?
The questions swirled in her mind like a vortex.
Lisa's gaze fell on her trembling hands.
She felt alive, yet uncertain.
The bathroom door creaked open.
Lugard emerged, his expression composed.
He came out of the bathroom and lay down on her bed without saying a word.
Lugard's gaze settled on Lisa, his eyes searching for answers.
His main reason for coming to her room tonight was to uncover the truth.
Was it Lisa's presence that had helped him sleep so soundly the last time?
Or was it just a fluke?
Lugard's insomnia had plagued him for years.
Sleeping pills were his only respite.
But that one night beside Lisa...
He fell asleep effortlessly.
No pills. No struggle.
Just deep, restful sleep.
Lugard's curiosity was piqued.
Was Lisa the key to breaking his reliance on medication?
He needed to know.
Hence, he was here tonight.
To test the theory.
To see if Lisa's presence would work its magic again.
Lugard's eyes never left Lisa's face.
Watching her, studying her.
His thoughts whirled with possibilities.
As he settled beside her, he felt...
A sense of calm.
A glimmer of hope.
Maybe, just maybe...
Lisa was his natural sleeping pill.
Lisa's cheeks still flushed, her lips swollen from their kiss.
She avoided his gaze, confusion etched on her face.
Lugard's presence was overwhelming, making her breath catch.
He lay beside her, his proximity electrifying.
Lisa's heart raced, her thoughts tangled.
What just happened?
Why did he stop?
Lugard's silence was deafening, yet comforting.
His gentle breathing calmed her racing thoughts.
Lisa's eyelids drooped, her body relaxing.
Lugard's gaze never left hers, watching her drift off.
His thoughts were hidden, but his eyes revealed:
A deep connection.
A bond forming.
Lisa's soft breathing was music to his ears.
He smiled, satisfied.
His sleeping pill was Lisa herself.
As Lisa drifted off, Lugard's thoughts unfolded:
He needed to know if their connection was real.
If she can cure him.
Their intense moment left him breathless.
He craved more.
Lugard's fingers intertwined with Lisa's.
A gentle hold.
Possessive.
Lisa's hand fit perfectly in his.
As they lay there, the world outside faded.
Leaving only the two of them.
Lost in the silence.
Lost in each other.
