She opened her eyes and met his eyes, he locked her lips again and deepened the kiss. Her clear and desirous gaze was too much to handle for him. He guided her hands to his neck and pressed her closer as his tongue played with hers.

Whenever Sky's hands tightened around his neck, Arlo wrapped her tighter in his arms as he caressed every inch. Her mind was buzzing as a numbing sensation spread through her. She was losing control over her rationality...

His intense and passionate kiss lasted a long time until Sky was almost out of breath.

Sky rested her head on his chest as she leaned on him to catch the breath. He didn't leave her from his embrace until her breathing became normal.

"Sweet... Too sweet. Hmmm, I like your dessert." A blissful smile appeared on his face as he teased.

Her mind was still revolving around the kiss and her lips still could feel his lips stroking them when she heard him. Her face flushed red as she punched him before saying, "Shameless."

He kissed her backhand before kissing her forehead. "By the way, your mobile is on the table."

Sky's face turned a darker shade. Arlo opened the door before taking her near the cooktop. Unless he didn't has to use both hands, he back hugged her all the time.

Sky was in a complete mute mode and didn't speak till the end of the lunch. "See you!" Then she left without even seeing his face even once.

Thinking as she was shy, he didn't tease or say anything and got back to work.

Sky was distracted all the time. In the time of ten files, she finished only four. Either she was covering her the face and sit as she checks a file or pace around holding a file.

When she heard a knock, she composed herself, "Enter!"

Arlo entered and saw Sky who turned after seeing him and walked towards her desk. "Ms.Sky! We got Mr.Barton's photoshoot pictures."

Sky hummed indifferently and continued with seeing the file. Arlo was perplexed but he kept the file on her desk. "Ms.Sky, Any instructions?"

Sky took a few seconds and said, "Ask Andy to attend the next meeting with me. You can continue with your work."

"Noted!" He said and left with lots of questions. Arlo had to attend but she changed at the last movement. But he did as she asked.

Sky breathed through her mouth slowly once he went out. 'Sky! Sky! Sky!'

'Work! Work!... Work! Where is your professionalism?'

.

She chided herself for some time and went to the meeting. She wasn't distracted anymore. She got back on work and cleared all the files before leaving.

He was thinking about how to console her when Sam checked her temperature with his backhand first before asking, "Are you unwell? Why were resting your head on the desk in the afternoon?"

Sky had just hung up the call with Jai talking about his outdoor shoot when she heard him. Controlling her facial expression, "I'm fine."

She replied as she sat on the shotgun seat. Sam glanced at her, "Any difficulties at work?"

Sky shook her head and opened her laptop to check the mails which she couldn't finish at the office. Sam continued, "Max said you were acting weirdly in your office. Let me know if you need help."

Sky's finger paused but she carried off well, "How about you assist me? I won't be bored at work that way." She grinned and continued to type.

Arlo who heard Sam understood why Sky was behaving weirdly but his expressionless face didn't change. Sam and Sky continued to talk on their way.

Sky took Sam to the wine cellar, Arlo went to the room after reaching Harley mansion.

Sky had dinner before getting fresh and settled in the Living room with David and Olivia. Arlo finished his work in Ryan's room before joining them.

"Lass! Rest early. You didn't rest properly on the weekend." David had just finished when Arlo carried her to their room despite her protest.

"Dad! I'm not tired... Arlo! put me down...." Arlo ignored whatever she said.

David chuckled with Olivia but Ryan who had just reached stairs glared at Arlo, 'Handsome Demon! There are many out there. Is showing off required?'

Arlo ignored him and went ahead. Ryan went to Olivia and cried his invisible tears making the other two laugh their hearts out.

Arlo left her on the bed before closing the door and saw her standing on the bed at another edge as she glared at him holding a pillow.

"What's wrong?" Arlo asked as he sat on the bed and leaned on the headrest.

"Sh*t! Arlo, that should be my question." Sky threw the pillow on him before saying.

Arlo controlled his laughter as he knew well what she was thinking about. He extended his hand at her with a warm smile. She saw it and let her guards down knowing he won't do anything and snuggled up with him.

"How many animals do you want to remind me?" Arlo said as he wrapped his hand around her.

"Huh?" Sky couldn't connect her with any animals.

Arlo hummed and listed animals, "Bunny, Panda, Lamb, Tigress, Lioness, Puppy, Mouse, Chipmunk, Kitten..."

She was tongue-tied as he listed and even explained why it was her by saying when she behaved like that. Seeing her looking at him in a daze, he pecked on her forehead.

"So instead of having so many pets, you are petting me!" Sky asked after coming back to the senses.

He smiled teasingly and said, "I like your vampire side too."

Sky blushed, "Can you not use that tone on me?" She said it and closed her mouth.

'You have sold your brain. Duffer!' Sky told herself as she heard him chuckling.

He stroked her hair for sometime before saying, "Sky! I want to tell you about a girl."

Sky faced him, "Ex-Girlfriend?"

Seeing her eyes glitter, he doubted if her brain wiring was really crossed.

'Who gets excited knowing her husband was going to talk about another girl?'
