Eighteen Again: The CEO's Wife was a Delinquent

As soon as dawn breaks on the next day, Cassidy finds herself in her nightwear, stirring awake on her bed. 

To her relief, she doesn\'t seem to be having a hangover after drinking a little too much than what she can tolerate. She even feels more rested than usual for some reason. However, her memory of last night is a bit of a black-out blur. 

​​

"There\'s really no hurry to figure out what went down. And even if I end up getting a hangover, I can stay on bed all day..." Cassidy said to no one in particular, feeling like reassuring herself. 

"Aira is at Asher\'s place this week. And it\'s my day-off today. I don\'t have to get up early."

This is probably the first time in a while that she ever feels so at ease. She\'s not certain what\'s the last thing that took place during her dinner date with her husband, but she feels that she\'s able to enjoy it until the end. His delighted reaction is more than worth all her efforts. She does hope that he stayed with her until the next morning, though. 

Seeing that Adrian is no longer around, Cassidy thinks that he already left for work. 

"Oh, you\'re awake now, princess?"

Then, she flinched. 

Taken aback, she snaps out of her thoughts and turns to look at the side. There, she finds Adrian stepping out of her bathroom, soaked wet from head to toe. It seems like he has only finished taking a shower.

His hair is drenched and unkempt. Little beads of water droplets cascade down his smooth-looking, lustrous locks. He is completely topless as well - with only a bath towel wrapped around his waist. Right when she realized that, her face flushed a faint shade of red. 

\'Wait... Isn\'t that my towel?\'

At that moment, Cassidy is too astonished to say anything. Not only is he using what she always wraps around her wet naked body everyday, but he also appears a little more breathtaking than usual, especially with his tight-packed abs, ripped arms, broad shoulders and strapping build - all out in the open for her to behold. 

His mouth-watering shirtless figure is enough to make anyone drool - a fact that she does not want to admit, much less say out loud.

"U-Uhhh... Y-Yeah, I just woke up..." Cassidy stuttered and looked away, embarrassed.

"I didn\'t know you\'re still around. Thank you for taking me to bed, by the way. I didn\'t know that I fell asleep. And I\'m sorry for making you go all through the trouble-"

Then, she stilled.

Adrian suddenly cut off her rambling when he walked up to the side of her bed and reached out to hold the side of her face. With that, he made her look back at him, throwing her into a bit of a panic.

Now, she has a close-up view of his sexiness, making blood crawl all the way up to her ears. He looks scorching hot even though he is soaked wet - perhaps, a little too much that even she herself feels like burning up. She then remembers that she used to be afraid of seeing him topless before.

Now, she still is - but for a different reason. 

"Your face is beet red. Did you catch a fever again? You\'re starting to get frail," Adrian asked with a worried look as he palmed her forehead and inched his face closer to hers. 

"N-No, I didn\'t! I\'m fine! I-It\'s just that..." Cassidy trailed off and got more flustered, blushing even harder. 

"Y-You\'re half-naked, Adrian. Can you put on some clothes for now?"

Seeing her evade his gaze and blush fiercer than ever, his eyes widen a little for moment before narrowing and glinting with mischief. A suggestive smirk then spreads across his face. She really doesn\'t fail to endear and amuse him with how adorable she acts whenever she\'s being bashful. 

"Did I make you more aware of me, princess?" he asked, earning a puzzled look from her. 

"Why do you keep calling me that? And what do you mean?" she asked back, tilting her head quizzically. 

"Well, you see, you called me a prince last night. So, doesn\'t that make you a princess?"

"What?!"

"First, a prince charming. And now, it seems like you\'ve become more aware of me as a man. What a sly princess you are~"

That\'s when Cassidy stares at Adrian incredulously but only to meet his seductive simper.

He\'s now peering at her as if drawing her in on purpose. Her face heats up even more than what should\'ve been possible, making her want to turn away again but to no avail. This time, before she can scoot away, he joins her on the bed and fills in the gap between them.

Cassidy ends up squealing and falling back in surprise. Adrian crawls on top of her, going all on his fours with his blushing mess of a wife at the bottom.

"Adrian, I-I said put on your clothes!" she huffed, pretending to be intrepid. 

"You know, you should really get used to this kind of sights. After all, it\'s only a matter of time before we live together again," he said with a chuckle while he kissed the top of her head. 

"We are?"

"Don\'t you want to?"

"W-Well, ummmm..."

"I won\'t pressure you. But I do want to let you know that I\'ve been raring to make a family with you for a long time now."

Before Cassidy can reply to that, Adrian lowers his head and starts kissing her cheek over and over again - a good enough distraction to keep her from getting flustered from what he said. She giggles but is soon reminded that he is still not letting her off the hook. After a round of continuous smooches, he eventually pulls away and regards her flirtatiously.

"By the way, you haven\'t answered my question. Do you see me more as a man now?" he brought up again.

"But you\'ve always been a man in my eyes, Adrian. I don\'t know how you can be any more of that than you already are..." she answered with a giggle that made her appear all the more pure and innocent.

"Right now, though, I do realize that you\'re becoming more and more attractive."

She honestly can\'t believe how he can get even more good-looking than he already was. He, on the other hand, doesn\'t know how she can get any more adorable than this.

Smitten, he smirks wider at her compliment - at how she\'s getting more and more irresistible in each passing moment.

"I feel flattered. Thanks for that," he told her with a fond and loving expression which soon turned sultry.

At that point, he can no longer keep his emotions at bay, especially when she continues to encourage his pent-up desires to resurface. He had waited long enough, and with last night\'s events pulling the last straws for him, he couldn\'t hold back anymore.

"Cassidy, I love you."

With that, Adrian dives down and begins kissing Cassidy on her lips, making her heart burst out right there and then.
