She's My Sleeping Pill

Her surprise was a success.

That night, after they had their dinner and everyone left, Cayenne consulted Stefan about the work that Sabrina proposed to her.

As a friend of a friend, she wanted to help the person. However, she had no idea about the business situation of the company, and she didn\'t want to risk her reputation should a problem arise. It won\'t just affect her anymore. Stefan will be dragged down by her, too.

"I\'ll ask Tristan to check on this tomorrow. I\'ll have him submit a report to you at 10 AM," he said while putting Jahzara on the bed with her siblings. "Do you want me to draft a contract for you in case you\'d take this job?"

"No, it\'s okay. I\'ll read everything first and ask you later should I find something I don\'t understand."

"Then, should I prepare myself as a congratulatory gift for you?" Stefan whispered as he leaned closer and bit her earlobe. "I\'ll surely wrap myself up properly for you."

"What...what non... nonsense are you talking about?" she retorted with a deep blush on her face. "Don\'t flirt with me in front of the kids."

Stefan looked to their side and saw the triplets watching them while biting their fingers. He frowned and felt like covering them with a blanket. "They\'ll understand it in the future."

"Don\'t infect them with your shamelessness," Cayenne muttered and kissed his cheek before pushing him away. "Let\'s change their clothes now and put them to sleep."

"Why don\'t we let the nannies do their job? Hmm?"

Cayenne shifted her gaze from her husband to her kids and sighed. "Let\'s just change their clothes and have the nanny put them to sleep."

"Then you help me change my clothes later, too."

"Huh? I thought I\'d be undressing you," Cayenne responded with a raised eyebrow and this unexpected retort brought a throaty chuckle from Stefan.

He loved teasing his wife and most of the time, she wouldn\'t get back at him. However, whenever she did, she would catch him off guard and make his heart bloom in happiness.

Not wasting another second, he immediately took Aziel off the bed and took him to the bathroom so he could clean him before giving him to Cayenne to dress him up. They did it for Zeki and Jahzara, too.

As soon as they finished, he called for the nannies to take care of the children before dragging his wife to the master bedroom.

They hadn\'t even locked the door yet when he kissed her there was no tomorrow.

[Did I flip a switch in him or something?] Cayenne thought while on the receiving end.

One after another, their clothes fell on the floor and before she realized it, she was already on the bed with her husband on top of her.

"Don\'t be so hard on me today. I still have something to do tomorrow," Cayenne whispered as Stefan trailed his kisses down to her throat and chest.

"Bed, couch, and shower," he whispered while building up the intensity of pleasure for her.

These were the words that Cayenne heard last from him.

After that, she no longer knew if he still said something else or not. She couldn\'t recall anything after all.

The next day, Sabrina came once again to help Cayenne with the decoration. Erwin couldn\'t just take a time off and leave the company to others for a date, and Sabrina understood his situation.

Therefore, to pass her time, she visited Cayenne again.

"Move this Santa Claus ornament to the garden," Cayenne instructed with a hoarse voice.

She even had to clear her throat to sound a little clearer.

"Just how long did you do it last night to lose your voice that much?" Sabrina commented in a whisper which caused Cayenne to blush.

"We had karaoke last night in the theater room," she lied unabashedly.

"Karaoke, huh," Sabrina mumbled teasingly. "I wish I could do karaoke with Erwin, too."

Cayenne didn\'t say anything more. She was embarrassed enough by lying to Sabrina with a straight face. She didn\'t want to trip on her own lies.

Since they were done decorating the living room yesterday, today was to decorate the mansion\'s exterior. Thus, the kids were allowed to go out of their room and play outside. Cayenne even allowed them to play with the dogs.

At 10 AM, Tristan called Cayenne and informed her that he had already submitted his report about Chiffon. Knowing that time was of the essence for Chiffon, she immediately ran upstairs to get her laptop.

Seeing that Cayenne was off to get something, Sabrina decided to play with the kids instead. If they weren\'t taken outside, she wouldn\'t have gotten this chance to cuddle with them.

MINI THEATER

Stefan leaned closer to his wife and whispered sweet nothings. She blushed as he flirted but she pointed out the fact that they were in front of the kids.

Aziel: "Why is he looking at us?"

Zeki and Jahzara [while biting their fingernails]:

In haste, Stefan took Aziel to the bathroom and cleaned him. Next were Zeki and Jahzara.

Aziel: "Why was Daddy in a hurry tonight?"

Jahzara: "They didn\'t even bother putting us to sleep."

Zeki ignored his siblings and closed his eyes.

Jahzara: "Zi, you are the smartest among us. You must know why, right?"

Aziel: "Right! You always have an answer to our question."

Zeki continued pretending to be asleep. He didn\'t want his siblings to know what flirting was! They were too young to know about it! [I wish I was dumb.]
