It'll Come Naturally

The sound of the opened door and clack of heeled shoes in the foyer let the people in the house know that someone had just arrived. It was Daisy, followed by Edward and Justin. As soon as Daisy and Edward stepped into their room, she dropped her bag on the table and that made Edward look at her instantly. "Spit it out! What did you want to ask just now?" Daisy asked as she scrunched up her face in seriousness, her hands on her waist. She had a feeling that there was a secret between her husband and Leena.

Edward raised his eyebrows in mild surprise and said, "Okay, one question first. Will you mind if I'm occasionally affectionate towards Leena? For example, will you mind me hugging her or other close types of contact like that?" Edward asked because he wanted to know what Daisy thought about this, but he subconsciously believed that she wouldn't be so narrow-minded and shallow about these types of things.

Daisy raised her eyebrows and replied, "Why do you ask that? Well since you brought it up, I'd like to share my thoughts with you-- but first, tell me, will you completely ignore me when you lavishly dote on Leena?" Daisy finished. She had always thought of herself as a very generous and broad-minded person. She never bothered herself with trifling matters and was quite confident in things that were significant to her.

"No." Edward answered without a slight hesitation in his deep voice.

"Since you said no, why should I be bothered? I know what Leena is like. She is such a smart and lovely girl. I'm fond of her. Why should I be jealous because you also adore her?" Daisy answered thoughtfully, the hands on her waist dropped and her body visibly relaxed. She had been really upset inside seeing Edward and Leena hug each other when she first saw her, but she didn't know back then that Leena was like an endearing sister to Edward. When she got to know this, she felt rather ashamed of how narrow-minded she had acted. "Really? Do you really think so?" Edward looked at her with a happy smile that graced his lips. He knew that the woman he had chosen would not be that shallow. He was right in his previous belief.

"And now it's your turn to tell me why did you suddenly ask such a question. Is it something about Leena?" Daisy folded her arms across her chest. Her face became serious again and she trusted her instinct.

"Hmm. Yes, it is. Probably because Tom adores Leena too much and that made Patricia very uncomfortable. She was quite unhappy about it recently." Patricia was a straightforward person. She couldn't understand such kind of a close and intimate relationship between Tom and Leena. Their closeness extended to a lot of hugging and almost jovial kinds of conversations.

"It is valid for her to feel like that, but she forgot that no matter how much Tom adores Leena, she is only like a sister to him. There are no conflicts between Tom's love for his wife and his closeness to his family and friends." Daisy bit her perfectly cut nails as she analyzed the whole thing and thought deeply about what Edward said.

"But she is not you and she can't think in the same way as you do," said Edward. In that moment, Edward felt that he was so fortunate to marry such an excellent woman who could do everything well. Most importantly, this woman loved him deeply. She was confident and put a lot of trust in him and their relationship.

"Don't worry! Patricia is not an unreasonable woman. She would come around after a period of time," Daisy finally said. It wasn't something difficult to get over. It was just a situation that needed time.

"I hope so! But now, should we talk about us, our matters?" Edward said as his voice dipped an octave lower and he flashed a sly smile. When it came to love, he became very mean. So how could he possibly let Daisy get away so easily?

"Us? What matters are there between us?" Daisy said defensively as her eyes glanced sideways and her legs backed a few steps. The hair on the back of her neck stood on end. She knew Edward was not easy to fool around, but did he really have to show that horrible smile? It gave her goosebumps!

"What do you think?" Edward said as he sauntered over to her. He laughed softly because it didn't help when she backed off as he could just go closer to her.

"I'm warning you, don't come any closer to me." Daisy was cornered when she felt her back hit the wall, and she suddenly realized that she had made a very stupid mistake. She had always been very smart, but where was that smartness now?

"What if I come closer? What would you do to me?" Edward was so close now that Daisy could smell his masculine scent and it sent shivers down her spine. He had always been the overbearing and tyrannical boss, and how could she possibly exert this power over him? He didn't show any signs to stop at her warning. He just continued to inch closer to her as his eyes scanned her in a controlling manner. He was so close now that if he slightly dipped his head lower, he could easily kiss her forehead. Daisy felt his breath on her ear and that sent shivers down her spine.

"I'm sure you will regret," Daisy said with gritted teeth as she tossed her head to the side. She was once again caught in his arms, and it sucked.

"Okay, show me how you will make me regret.

I can't wait to see." Edward only smirked smugly even more. Daisy almost stumbled at the sight of his wicked grin. 'Huh, I am an honorable Senior Colonel, how could I possibly be intimidated by such a shameless man? How could I live up to the name of my title after so many years' training in the army base?' Daisy thought.

"Edward Mu, you're offending the military officer. Do you know it's a serious crime?" Daisy suddenly changed her demeanor and said in a sultry voice as she grasped his tie, an equally mischievous smile on her luscious lips. Gone was the shy girl who was itching to get away from him a while ago and the tough senior colonel was suddenly replaced by this vixen.

"Oh? I didn't know that. But I'm willing to listen what crime I have committed." Edward's eyes narrowed into slits as he gazed at her. She was still green at teasing a man as she awkwardly gripped his tie with a trembling hand. However, he was quite eager to see what she would do next.

"Huh, you silly man. Do you really want to know? Beg me." Daisy stood on her tiptoes and caressed his senses with her sultry voice. Her luscious lips grazed the shell of his ear and lightly touched his earlobe. She subtly tried to arouse his sensual desires. She was definitely more open now compared to what she was like a year ago.

"Dear, you are amazing. It seems that you have learned a lot of these skills. You are stirring up the fire in me, but have you thought how could you get away once I lose my control?" Edward's brows shot up in mild excitement as he was more curious to see what she had to show next. His lustful eyes bore into her own, as if trying to light the passionate fire in them.

"I have never thought of getting away." Daisy said as her hands fumbled around his body, her fingers tracing the contours of his abdomen beneath the dress shirt he wore. An innocent smile found its way to her face. She grabbed his attention even more.

"Oh. So does it mean that you have given in to me?" The more Daisy tried to seduce him, the more Edward became vigilant. He felt that this act might be a honey trap and he should be cautious.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
