Jaxon’s blood was boiling as he recalled the incident that occurred the previous day. He was filled with anger and hatred.
The only thing that was rolling in his head was different ways to torture and kill Kim for even thinking of drugging him.
He felt disgusted. How could she ever think of doing that to him?
He has had his suspicions about her since Ruby fell down the stairs and the drug incident proves that she was guilty of that.
He couldn’t wrap his head around how one could be so selfish and cruel to one’s own family. He felt heartbroken for Ruby. How would she feel when she found out that the sister she loved and doted on was the cause of her pain? How would she feel when she found out that her only family wanted to snatch her husband from her?
Jaxon could not stand to be under the same roof as Kim or he might end up killing her out of anger.
Ruby was surprised when Jaxon suggested that they should travel out. She didn’t want to at first cause she felt like she had been holding him back and distracting him from work since she broke her leg.
Ruby felt like she was a burden to him and Jaxon understood the reason for her reluctance.
“I’m really tired, Gem, I need a break from work and everything to relax, and I can’t feel at peace if you are not there with me.” Jaxon groaned as he held both her hands in his.
“But you’ve been off work for a very long time, is it okay for you to keep being absent in the company for so long?” Ruby asked.
“I’m not absent, Gem; I have people reporting to me every single day, and nothing major happened without my permission, so it’s fine,” Jaxon replied dismissively.
“Are you sure you are not doing this for my sake?” Ruby nervously asked.
“I’m really tired, Gem, I need a change of scenery, and you also need to go out more since your leg is almost completely healed up.”
“Fine!” Ruby exclaimed.
Jaxon smiled and pulled her into a hug. Ruby sighed in his embrace and smiled softly. She knew she would not be able to stop him from the very beginning, but she just wanted to try.
It has been over a week since they came to the Maldives and Ruby couldn’t be happier. It felt like she was having a mega honeymoon all over again except this was so much better.
Everyday Jaxon made her feel like a queen and she couldn’t be happier. Jaxon made it impossible for her to ever think of living without him and she loved it.
She loved how he fired on her, how affectionate he was, and his love for carrying out small acts of service.
Ruby was currently sitting in the living room and watching Rapunzel on Netflix when Jaxon walked into the room.
He walked up to her and sat beside her, Ruby smiled and leaned forward to peck his cheek. She cuddled close to him and continued watching her movie.
Jaxon smiled fondly at the little body in his arms and gently played with her hair. He glanced at the screen and snorted at the funny-looking animated characters.
“What?” Ruby looked up at him.
“Nothing,” Jaxon smirked and pecked her lips. Ruby glared at him as her cheeks flushed red and she hit his chest as she hid her face in his chest.
“My adorable princess…” Jaxon coed and Ruby pinched his nipples.
“That hurts, Gem; if you wanted some, you could have just said so.” Ruby’s cheeks flushed a deeper shade of red and Jaxon smirked as he flicked her red ears.
“Meanie,” Ruby mumbled into his chest and Jaxon laughed.
“What would you like to have baby?”
“I’m not hungry.” Ruby replied.
“I know but it’s almost time for lunch and I want to cook for you today.” Jaxon replied and Ruby felt giddy. She happily looked up and strangled Jaxon, completely forgetting about the movie.
“Your good alway tastes amazing babe, I’ll eat whatever you prepare.” Jaxon stood up with Ruby in his arms and walked towards the built-in kitchen. She smiled happily as she wrapped her hands around his neck.
Jaxon gently placed her on the counter and got to work. He decided to make something simple that would not take up his time.
Ruby watched Jaxon’s every movement from the counter and she thought that he was a master of what he did. He moved around the kitchen and prepared the dish like a professional chef.
His muscles flexed as he wielded his spatula and Ruby felt her mouth dry up. He had an intense look in his eyes as he focused on the dish he was preparing.
Ruby felt like she was being seduced by his calculated movements that made her admiration grow stronger and closer with every tantalizing stir and simmer.
Jaxon felt her intense gaze and he smirked as he turned around and saw her biting her lips as she devoured him with her eyes.
He turned off the stove and slowly walked up to Ruby with slow steps. She was so lost in thought that she didn’t notice his movement until he stood in between her legs with his face just inches away from hers.
“If you had told me you had a cooking kink, I would have dragged you to the kitchen every day.” Blood rushed to Ruby’s face and she averted her eyes as she couldn’t stand the intense look in Jaxon’s eyes.
Jaxon smiled as he gently stroked her hair, his fingers trailing down her back with a feather-light touch that sent shivers of delight rippling through her body.
He softly cupped her cheeks and his lips captured hers in a fierce, passionate kiss, the intensity of their desire cresting with each breathless moment.
Ruby moaned as Jaxon softly pulled back and removed her panties in a swift moment.
He started to play with her clit and Ruby threw her head back as she moaned loudly while he pulled down his joggers with his other hand.
His gaze is fixed upon her with an ardent fervor, his lips pressing against her skin with the fervor of a man possessed. Jaxon’s hold on her waist tightened as he slid into her welcoming heat.
Ruby arched her back, her eyes closed as she surrendered to the raw, primal energy of their passion.
