Veronica: CEO's Underworld Queen

Rawlf was apparently surprised yet at the same time, sighed in bliss having the woman back in his embrace.

The only thing that frustrates him is the fact that the woman is crying like it's the end of the world. And, like how he grew up the habit of soothing her, he gently rub her back while kissing the top of her head and ceremoniously, her forehead.

'Rawlf.' Rawlf couldn't count the number of times where the woman uttered his name. Yet crying, it made Rawlf happy as the tone of her calling out his name was that of longing. So he's not alone in this huh? But before he started to get ahead of himself, Rawlf chose to tightend his embrace on the woman and inhaled her sweet vanilla scent. 'Pure bliss.'

The crying woman now ceased from crying and instead sob from time to time. Rawlf loosened his embrace as he wanted to check on her after realizing tha she just straightly jumped off from the bed yet the woman, as if afraid to loose him, cling her body to him even more and tightend her arms around him.

'Sweetheart, I'm not going anywhere. Just let me check you first.' Rawlf gently said. And to proved his earlier realization, the woman was barefoot on the cold floor. At least for him, he was wearing a thick sock but she had been crying in his embrace for a good five minutes now.

Rawlf pulled Veronica up and carried her on the floor without saying anything. The woman turned submissive and just cling on his neck as her anchor while stealthily inhaling his scent from his c.h.e.s.t in the process.

He made her laid on the bed gently and was about to turn to remove his socks when the woman pulled him on his slack's pocket. Sighing helplessly, Rawlf joined the woman in bed.

After settling himself on the bed, Veronica right away cuddled herself in his embraced. Rawlf on the other hand, couldn't ask for more better than the present moment, hug her tighter and kiss her at the top of her head.

When she finally had her fair shair in Rawlf's embrace, Veronica started. 'I'm ready to tell you the truth now.'

'I know. But we're both tired and sleepy. Let's have a talked tomorrow.' Rawlf said in dotingly.

'Hmmmm.'

Rawlf kissed her once more at the top of head as he was about to let his fatigue carried him on the dreamland. Of course, if Veronica wasn't beside her now, he doubt that he could even feel or realized how tired he was. To finally be beside her after the longest and slowest two days of his life, Rawlf finally felt comfortable inside.

'And it doesn't involve any man you were thinking of. I never was involved to any man after you...intimately.' Veronica softly said, her voice laced with sleepiness and soon enough, her breath started to eased. She's finally asleep.

Rawlf after hearing what Veronica just told him couldn't help but smile.

'I was never involved to any man after you.' Those words were echoing on his minds. Finally having his assurance, Rawlf then dozed off to sleep while tightly embracing Veronica to his body.

While the couple were already enjoying their sleep in each other's embrace, a certain someone, was once again, left alone in the car, in front of the hotel, waiting for his boss who had long forgotten about his existence the instant his woman fell in his embrace.

Two hours had passed and there's no sign of the President yet, however, realizing what might have happened between the couple, Secretary Ryan is smarter now to start the car's engine to drive himself home. But not forgetting to message his President something which prove his reliability from time to time. 'Brought your car home with me President. I will have breakfast delivered on your and lady boss' suite tomorrow morning.'

Secretary Ryan shakes her head at the couple as he hum himself during the drive home. Yes, he's also tired and sleepy yet at the same time, happy for reconciliation between the couple. This also means, a happy lovelife for the President means a happy office life for him and the all of the employees in Sy International.

...

Morning came, and Veronica stirred from her deep slumber when Rawlf's slow movement still manage to wake her. Well, it's more on like sensing the lack of warmth being inside the man's embrace. Veronica was about to rise up herself as Rawlf was already up but was gently pushed back on the bed by the man.

'It's only five in the morning sweeheart. Go back to sleep. I'm here all day. I'm not leaving.'

Rawlf rubbed he back and kissed her forehead lulling back to sleep but before totally falling back to sleep she asked for the pillow he slept on to cuddle.

Feeling happy by this, Rawlf gently kissed her once more after pulling the pillow he slept on and give it to her. Veronica lazily put the pillow she already has on her back and instead replace it with Rawlf's pillow as he cuddled it...then drifting back on her comfortable sleep.

Seeing as his woman was back asleep, Rawlf stayed for a minute more staring at her in dotingly and then, forced himself out of his room.

He received a call from his Persian force saying that an email was sent contaning confidential files about their lady boss he asked from a week ago. Yes, a week ago. That means that collecting information about Veronica was indeed, very hard that even his force took a week before completing the task.

It's not that Rawlf's force is weak, it's because Veronica's information was highly classified and highly secured by Country. It's not just other Country. It's Country R, one of the world's hegemonic country.

Yet, no matter how strong, superior, and powerful a country or a force is, if Rawlf insist, all his stagnant forces could do was to slowly but surely, fulfill the task given to them. Aside from that, so as not to raise any suspicion or cause unnecessary noise, the forces had to tread carefully their every action. It's not yet the time to make the world known of their forces and even, the world is yet to know the immense power and influence, Rawlf Sy of Sy International has, in every corners of the globe.
