Escaped (I)

The next day, Jade woke up only to realise that Derek had already awoken up and was staring at her. He smiled at her gently, "Good morning, wifey. Are you feeling sore down there? Do you need me to call the doctor?"

"Your wifey is not that fragile, in fact, I could have handle it if you wanted to do another round." Jade spoke earnestly.

Derek laughed out loud, "Are you implying your hubby fail to satisfy you last night?" He really like this part of her, with him, she allowed herself to let loose and just say what is on her mind, without the need to analyze think of the consequences.

"No, no, no... You were beastly last night. You did not listen to me 20 times, 20 times, I said come inside me but you ignored me. You told me everything wifey says goes but..."

She could not finish her sentence because Derek had already claimed her lips and started to devour it with passion. Jade pushed him away when she was left breathless.

"You are not allow to change the subject or make me..."

Her lips was once again attacked by his fierce kiss that she could only helplessly submit herself willingly.

They continued last night activity with even higher intensity but still full with gentleness.

After two rounds of passionate explosion, Derek held Jade in his embrace and stroke her head, lovingly. "How was it? Did hubby satisfy wifey? This time hubby was completely obedient. Hubby deserves a reward."

Jade finds herself helpless and speechless against this man shamelessness over and over again.

"It is still early, why don't you rest a bit more. I go and find father have breakfast with him, spend sometime with him before we leave. Today, I planned to bring you to meet uncle." Derek explained when he saw Jade's puzzled look. "Later I will send up breakfast for you. Okay?" he continued.

Jade agreed because she knows he must have some things to talk to father. Plus, she would love to sleep longer.

Derek found his father at the dining table, eating porridge quietly while reading the newspaper. Derek helped himself to a bowl and sat down across his father.

"Father, today me and Jade are going to meet uncle. I don't know what I want to achieve by meeting him but there is something that has been bothering me lately and I want to go and see him. Maybe for the appease my mind." Derek said quietly.

"Hm. Such a dangerous place, you want to bring my daughter in law?" His father replied after a moment.

"She wanted to follow, I can't say no to her. You try talking her out of it, I doubt she'll listen to you. Once her mind is made up, it is hard to change her mind." Derek replied. His face beamed with pride when he spoke about Jade.

"Hm. That lass reminds me of your mother. Stubborn. By the way, I heard about that night. Things between you two, is everything alright?" His father's tone became serious.

"I hurt Jade physically that night, but nothing has changed between the two of us except that our feelings for each other has grown deeper. I am ashamed for my incompetence in keeping both of us safe." Derek said with deep regret.

"Well, it is not that you can predict the future, take this as a lesson to be more vigilant. Rule no 1 never accept drinks or foods prepared by others. By the way, I haven't told you some things yet. Your grandfather used to be the king of underworld but when I took over because of your mother's urges, I have put in a lot of effort to make all dealings legit and have control over the black market to make sure that none of the organisation do any dealings that can cause national security threat. Our bottom line is no drugs and no firearms sales to underage kids and terrorist group. I will continue to handle matters of the underworld but you need to undergo some training once you are back to take over. You may need to part with you wife for 6 months. Can you do it?" his father asked.

"Do I have a choice? Is there an option for me to reject?" Derek asked.

"None, I'm afraid." his father hook his head helplessly.

"Then it seems I have to accept this as it is. I am pretty sure you did not have a choice back then, father." Derek replied sensibly.

"You really are my son. I'm proud of you."

"I know. The period I'm absent, please take good care of her in my place. I will need to inform her regarding this matter. When do I need to start?" Derek said.

"Alright. Just after the new year, once you are back from the visit."

Derek got up after his breakfast and went in the kitchen to make strawberry pancakes for Jade. He poured a glass of her favourite fresh milk to go with it. He served in on a tray and headed towards their bedroom. His heart drums happily as he saw her bundled up under the comforter. She was hugging his pillow tightly and slept with peaceful smile on her beautiful face. He shook her shoulder lightly a few times and kissed her cheeks, forehead and lips lightly. "Wake up wifey. I brought you breakfast, your favourite pancake and milk."

Jade stretched lazily like a cat, she got up and gave him a peck on his lips and made her way to the toilet to brush her teeth. She ate her breakfast in silence under his watchful gaze.

They packed up and then left to the airport to board their private jet.

They arrived the island uneventfully around 2 pm, a car was waiting for them at the airway. The driver informed that they will arrive their destination in another 90 mins. When they reached the enclosure, army restricted area, what greeted them was chaos. The place was on fire and it seems it had been a sneak attack on the base. Army personnel were running around and the alarm was blaring loudly. The driver decided to make a detour to get out of the danger area.

As they were leaving, Derek's phone rang it was father. "Your uncle had escaped!"
