Day Sixty-Two…
~~*****~~
"I wanna kiss you…"
Those four words registered on Nathan's mind and he couldn't utter a word. Jane's emerald eyes seemed like bewitching him.
Jane was on top of him. Her elbow was placed against his chest just below his neck. Her right hand was gripping his wrist, pinning his other hand on the bed just above his head. He was trapped in between the bed and her body.
She had a disturbing dream a while ago. At first, she thought he was her enemy. She was glad that the moment she opened her eyes, Nathan was the first person that greeted her sight. Jane felt the need to kiss Nathan.
Since Nathan didn't move or show any resistance, Jane lowered her head as her lips found their way instinctively to his. Jane seized his mouth with tantalizing persuasion. She was gently brushing his lips, urging him to respond.
It did not take long before Nathan's lips moved on their own accord, kissing her back. He was shocked beyond belief at his own eager response to the touch of her soft tempting lips. The sound of their wet kisses echoed inside the room.
Nathan's free hand grabbed the back of her head, pulling her closer to him as they continued kissing each other hungrily and passionately. After a few seconds, their lips broke apart to gasp some air. That was the time Jane heard the footsteps approaching the room.
Jane remembered that she was in Stephen's house for their hypnosis session. She glanced at Nathan and asked him. "What are you doing here? Where's Stephen?"
When Jane mentioned Stephen's name, Nathan's rationality came back to him. That was his wake-up call! He immediately pushed Jane away from him as he got off the bed. Kissing her was another mistake!
*Door Opening*
Both Jane and Nathan turned in the direction of the door. Stephen was the person who suddenly showed up. He was done changing his clothes. He darted his gaze back and forth between Jane and Nathan. He didn't expect to see Nathan there. But he focused his attention on Jane.
"Jane, you are awake. How do you feel?" Stephen walked towards her bed with large strides, closing their gaps. He wanted to know if she was just fine.
Jane bobbed her head. "I'm fine." She shortly responded, her eyes roaming around. "What am I doing here?" She noticed that she was in a different room. "Did I faint?"
Nathan and Stephen exchanged glances with one another, wondering how they would answer her. She didn't faint. Nathan knocked her down a while ago.
Nathan just lowered his head, hiding his reddened cheeks while biting his lower lip. The sweetness of her lips still lingered in his mind. His heart was still beating rapidly against his chest and he was still flustered by that intense kiss they shared a while ago. He was glad Stephen didn't catch them doing it.
"Yes, you fainted," Stephen lied. "Here, drink some water," he provided her with a glass of water.
Jane gladly accepted it. She stole a glance at Nathan as she drank her water. She smiled inwardly because Nathan allowed her to kiss him. He didn't resist her. He even responded to her kiss.
"What did you remember?" Stephen asked her worriedly. Both men were looking at her, anticipating her response.
Jane fell silent for a moment, trying to recall what she had seen during their hypnosis session. She reflexively tightened her grip on the glass.
"I was captured and I tried to free myself from my binds. I saw myself fighting several men. I snatched a dagger from one man and kept attacking them. The only thing that was in my mind is to… Kill." The feeling of desperation, fear, and anger was still fresh in her mind.
Nathan and Stephen could now understand why Jane suddenly became violent. She was fighting for her survival and she was surrounded by her enemies.
"Who are they?" Nathan butted in.
Jane shifted her gaze from Nathan to Stephen as if she was asking Stephen why Nathan was there.
"I'm sorry, Jane. But Nathan already knew why you were here. I told him that you wanted to recover your lost memories." Stephen explained to her.
Jane nodded her head. "It's okay. No need to apologize."
"The people in my memory are members of King Stallion Mafia," Jane began to share some information with Nathan.
"Why did they capture you?" Nathan threw a follow-up question. He looked very interested in her story.
"I failed my mission once… and this mission is to kill the Leader of the King Stallion. I think… while I was doing my mission, they found out my identity… and captured me. I can't remember my mistake…" Jane rubbed her temples.
"Take it easy, Jane. Don't force yourself to remember everything," Stephen soft;y said, consoling her. He even tapped her shoulders. This gesture made Nathan frown as he watched the two of them.
"What did you remember in the first session?" Nathan just continued asking her.
"I attended a Masquerade Party and encountered King, the leader of the King Stallion Mafia. I can't recognize him because he is wearing a mask. But I saw his tattoo on his left wrist."
"I can only speculate that something had gone wrong during the masquerade ball… and that was the time they managed to capture me…" Jane shared her thoughts with them.
Nathan had complicated emotions on his face as he tried to analyze the pieces of information.
"I have this fear…" Jane spoke up once again. "The father of my child might be a member of the King Stallion Mafia…" Jane smiled bitterly. She had this nagging feeling in her heart.
The room was engulfed with a deafening silence. Nathan and Stephen didn't know what to say when they heard that. Looking back at the timeline, the month Jane's baby was conceived was also the same month she did the mission.
'Is she trying to recover her memory so that she will know who is the father of her child?' Nathan wondered to himself. 'Then what will she do once she remembers him?' Nathan wanted to ask her, but he couldn't bring himself to utter those words in front of her.
"Sorry for bothering you, Stephen. I think I should go home now. My father might be looking for me now." Jane stood up.
"I'll drive you home," Nathan suddenly blurted out, volunteering to send her home.
Stephen glanced at his best friend with disbelief. He was supposed to be the one to offer her the ride.
"Okay, Nate. Thank you." Jane accepted his offer right away. Besides, she wanted to be with Nathan.
The three of them came out of the room and went downstairs. As they descended the stairs, Stephen grabbed the opportunity to talk to Nathan.
"Will you ask her permission?" Stephen was referring to the Hypnosis Session wherein Nathan wanted to be present.
"Yes. I will consult her," Nathan replied.
Stephen had conflicting thoughts regarding this. Part of him didn't want Nathan to be involved because he was worried that Jane would feel uncomfortable if Nathan was around. But in the end, Jane had the final say on this matter. He would let her decide.
Nathan and Jane bade goodbye to Stephen. When they were inside the car, Nathan opened a conversation with her. "For the next session, I would like to accompany you and Stephen."
Jane was taken aback when she heard that. She turned to Nathan, giving him a questioning look. "Why?"
"Because I want to keep everyone safe…" Nathan replied.
"What do you mean?" Jane asked him again, confused.
Nathan had no choice but to break his promise to Stephen. "The truth is… something happened during your session. You suddenly became violent and attacked Stephen. If I hadn't come, you would have stabbed him using a pen."
Jane: "..."
She was dumbfounded by Nathan's revelation.
'Shit! What I have done to Stephen?' Jane was consumed by her guilt instantly.
"Don't worry. It's not your fault. Don't blame yourself." Nathan said plainly. But he said those words to console her.
Jane continued to stare at Nathan. She felt like Nathan was a little bit soft and considerate towards her. It felt strange but at the same time heartwarming.
"Thanks, Nate. Please join us… in our next session." Jane finally gave him permission.

[ Back at Helena's Hotel Room… ]
Alexander felt like he was being harassed by this bold woman who was trying to make a move on him. He was trapped there on the couch and their bodies were so close to each other. He could feel her hot and soft skin.
Helena leaned closer to him, her lips grazing his earlobe. "Ready for our tutorial, Mr. Alexander. I'm going to teach you now." She whispered sensually, her palm rubbing his sturdy chest.
"Stop this, Helena," Alexander mumbled, trying his best to fight the temptation brought by this dangerous woman. "Is she not afraid of Vincent?'
"Vincent might— Urgh" Alexander wasn't able to finish his words because Helena suddenly rubbed his crotch using her other hand.
"You just made me more excited by mentioning his name," she murmured, gently nibbling on his earlobe. "Do you want to do a threesome together with my Babe?" she teased him further, massaging his bulging erection that was awakened by her seduction.
"Thinking about having two powerful men in my bed makes me wet and horny. Do you want me to wait for Vincent to arrive before continuing this session?"
'Damn! This woman is crazy!' Alexander thought to himself, gritting his teeth.
