Rena felt a slight weakness in her body.

Waylen leaned in, kissing her for a while, before gently caressing her delicate face with his fingers. “You go upstairs first.”

Rena ascended the stairs and opened the door to the master bedroom.

Upon entering, she was pleasantly surprised.

The entire room was adorned with red roses and an array of gift boxes, all seemingly meant for her.

Every woman enjoyed being pampered and Rena was no exception.

She removed her high heels, sitting on the white wool carpet, and began unwrapping the gifts.

Many of them were exquisite pieces of jewelry, alongside luxurious dresses from the current season.

There were even high-heeled shoes, so slender and elegant, designed to accentuate the legs.

Having been with him for so long, she knew the depths of his darker desires, causing her cheeks to redden.

Just then, the bedroom door creaked open.

Waylen stood at the doorway, still clad in an expensive black suit, his features accentuated by the soft lighting, exuding his undeniable handsomeness.

Quietly shutting the door, he approached Rena, wrapping his arms around her slender waist from behind. “Do you like them?”

Of course, Rena adored the gifts.

Gently turning around, she embraced his neck and kissed him passionately. Amidst their ardent kiss, she whispered, “Yes. But I like you even more.”

His low laughter filled her ear as he whispered, “Rena, it’s been three long years since we last made love.”

In the master bedroom, there was only a bedside lamp, and its light was dim.

The atmosphere was conducive to getting intimate.

Waylen and Rena kissed and then rolled toward the edge of the bed.

Waylen hadn’t slept with anyone in three years, and neither had Rena. He had been a little rusty, and she also felt a little shy.

But only in this way could this be more exhilarating.

Leaning against Rena’s ear, Waylen coaxed her gently and considerately. He took things slowly at first, but eventually, he couldn’t anymore. He made love to her the way that he had always wanted to.

They’d done it many times.

Suddenly, the bedroom door swung open, and Alexis hobbled in. She was hugging a pillow and rubbing the sleep off her eyes. “Daddy?”

Everything went completely still.

Waylen exhaled with difficulty and looked down at Rena.

In a low, strained voice, Rena said, “Go check on her.”

Waylen darted his eyes to Alexis and then looked back at Rena. His Adam’s apple bobbed.

Taking another deep breath, he put on his bathrobe, got out of bed, and picked up Alexis.

Alexis crept into Waylen’s arms.

She had a scary dream and was still half-asleep. She held onto Waylen’s neck tightly, as if she was afraid that someone or something would grab her and take her away.

Waylen lulled Alexis gently and then looked at the woman beside him. In a hoarse voice, he said, “Go take a shower. You will feel uncomfortable if you don’t.”

Rena blushed a little. She put on his shirt and sneaked into the bathroom.

In the dimly-lit master bedroom, Alexis groaned softly in her father’s arms.

Waylen fished out a fairy tale book from the bedside table drawer and read it to Alexis. His voice was soft and the little girl slowly quieted down.

Rena walked out of the bathroom and saw this scene.

She couldn’t help feeling as if her heart was melting. Her reconciliation with Waylen did have a lot to do with Alexis.

Waylen had done so much for their daughter.

It used to be impossible to get Waylen to stop in the middle of sex.

Rena dried her hair with a towel and sat on the edge of the bed. Stroking Alexis’ hair, she whispered, “Does she always wake up like this in the middle of the night?”

Waylen put the fairy tale book aside.

There was some depth in his eyes.

After along time, he chuckled, “Are you worried that she’s always going to interrupt us while we’re getting busy?”

Rena turned red as a tomato. “You know that’s not what I meant!”

Waylen still stared at her.

She had taken a shower, but it had done nothing to clear up the hickeys he’d etched on her skin. Her whole body still emanated some heat, which made him really, really want to pick up where they left off.

Rena read his expression and whispered, “Let’s continue another day.”

Waylen smiled and replied, “Come here then. I wanna kiss you.”

Rena leaned over obediently.

Waylen gave her a peck on the lips.

The kiss was very gentle. There was no lust in it.

Waylen didn’t allow Rena to leave. He held her in his arms and covered her and Alexis with the quilt. Then, he turned off the one source of light in the bedroom.

Rena leaned against Waylen’s chest and kept silent.
