Since She Met Lucian

Lucian lifted the quilt, thinking Amelia had fallen asleep and saw a fluorescent light reflecting from a screen. He frowned and took her phone away without hesitation. "Gazing at the screen just before you sleep isn't good for your eyesight."

Amelia stared at her empty hands in a daze and glared at her husband.

"Lucian, how can you be so bossy?" Amelia had been reading the gossip about someone she knew.

She had just calmed her heart when she stumbled upon a rumor about Lucian. Her mind was sold right there.

"Yes, I indeed am a bully if it means taking care of you." Lucian pulled her closer, putting her head on his shoulders.

Amelia struggled to move back but gave up. Lucian was way too strong for her.

She turned her head, sneaking a glance at Lucian. Light turned his already attractive face into something more perfect. Even though he was cold, his face attracted a lot of attention.

A smile formed on her lips, and she snuggled back in his arms, feeling secure.

Amelia sniffed his fresh mint-like fragrance and closed her eyes.

Lucian looked at her sleeping face, smiling gently. Her skin was fair and soft as a newborn child. Amelia's reddish lips lifted in her sleep as she moved closer to him. Seeing this, Lucian's thin lips could not help but draw a happy arc.

"Sleep tight, my sweetheart." He pulled her closer. His lips kept on smacking her tender neck. He only stopped after hearing a soft whimper from Amelia.

Amelia woke up to find her bed empty. She got up and walked over to the bathroom to see Lucian standing in front of the mirror.

She saw his wide smile before he squeezed the toothpaste for her, embracing her from behind. He even helped her in picking up her work clothes.

By the time Amelia got ready and came back in the bedroom, Lucian was nowhere to be found. She stood in front of the mirror, eyeing her face intently. How would she look in the make-up?

She didn't care about what Jessie had said, but it was an assistant's job to look perfect beside the CEO. Amelia pursed her lips before taking the make-up kit in her hands.

After fifteen minutes, she gazed at her hard work in the mirror, only to be distressed. How could she do that to herself? Her liner was smeared on the bridge of her nose, and the foundation seemed uneven on her face.

Her horrified eyes stared at her panda like reflection.

"Am I really a woman?" she whispered to herself, curling her upper lip in disgust.
