Chapter 202 - Two Hundred And Two: Who Ordered You?
The third point of view
"Keep Maya safe," Judy read out the text Niklaus sent him carefully. Fine, he would keep an eye for his honey pie right after this.
He must have arrived in Country B already, Judy surmised before putting his phone back in his pocket and knocking on her door.
"Hey," Emily opened the door and smiled upon seeing him, "You made it," She hugged and kissed him briefly.
"I didn't know which one to get you so I got a bunch of everything," Judy told her, bringing a bouquet into view.
Just as he said, it was a bit of everything; the bouquet was a mix of diverse flowers known to man.
"Wow," Emily tried to find the right word to express herself, "This is multi special,"? she said laughing, letting the man into her house.
Alright, lately, things have changed between her and Judy and she decided to give the relationship a try. She knows, crazy, right?
After that encounter with her brother at Maya's place and the short conversation they had days after, Emily saw how dangerous she was living.
Having multiple partners put her at risk for sexually transmitted disease and pregnancy, moreover, she was getting tired of that kind of lifestyle. Inwardly, Emily still desired a man who would love and treasure her with all his heart.
At first, Judy had been totally against it considering the fact he doesn't do relationship and she was Niklaus' sister but Emily was one stubborn woman who never gave up on what she wanted and so managed to change that insensitive man's heart.
"I hope you slept well the previous night," Emily inquired, closing the door after him and turned around only to bump into him.
"I didn't," Judy replied straightforwardly.
Worried lines wrinkled Emily's forehead as she asked, "Why didn't you?"
"Because you weren't with me," Judy said, took the bouquet from her, tossed it to the sofa, pushed her up against the wall, and began to kiss her.
Judy knew he was playing with fire by being with her but he couldn't stop, she had slowly made her way into his hardened heart and now he couldn't stop loving her; she had enraptured his mind, body, and soul.
Emily shivered when he trailed kisses down her neck, the beard he had grown out tickling her.
"Alright, we are so not doing this," Emily laughed, pulling away from his hold and knowing what would happen if they continued down that road.
"We are eating out, Judy," she reminded him, pulling away from his grasp again as he tried to reach for her.
Judy was dismayed, "I'll rather eat you here"
Emily was stunned at his bluntness, "Nice try but no. By the way, give me a minute, I need to change out of this clothing,"
"Can I watch?" He requested before she was even through speaking.
"Again, no" she refused him and went into her room before he changed her mind- Judy can be quite persuasive sometimes.
Emily knew if she had agreed to his request, there was no leaving the house today. They would engulf their body with the flames of passion till God knows when.
A smile unconsciously tugged Judy's lips to the side as he waited for his girlfriend to do whatever she did in there. He was seated on her sofa, absentmindedly drumming his hand against the armrest, waiting patiently until he picked the barest of sound from behind him.
As someone who was once in charge of Niklaus' security, his senses were more developed than the average human as a result of hard training over the years.
So he picked up her footsteps before she actually came in but was speechless at the sight that greeted him.
Emily had added curls to her brown hair that cascaded down her shoulder and donned baby blue high waist pants that showed off her curves in the right places and a hot crop sweatshirt which showed her toned midriff with white sneakers.
"How do I look?" Emily twirled around for him to take a good look at her, beaming with smiles until her boyfriend's next comment struck her dumb.
"Go in and change" he ordered with a huge scowl on his face.
"What?" She must have heard wrong.
"You heard me right, Emily. Go and change right now," He rephrased.
"Why? Why do I have to change? Huh, why? What is wrong with my clothing?" She threw questions after questions at him.
Judy towered over her," If you're going to go out looking like the goddess of seduction out of a fantasy book, I'll be the one enjoying the view alone, do you hear me?"
Oh, Emily finally understood what was going on. Judy was jealous which was kind of cute.
"Babe" she purred, wrapping her arms around his neck, "They can stare all they want but they can't touch me, remember?" Emily attempted to bribe him by kissing him sweetly on the lips.
"Nice try but no" Judy said the same words she used on him minutes ago.
"Go and change" he stood his ground after receiving her bribe.
Emily stomped her feet out of irritation and headed back to her room where she changed out of the sweatshirt, wearing a white blouse that left no part of her body exposed.
"Satisfied?" She scowled at him, attempting to move past him to the door but Judy reached out and grabbed her by the waist, pressed her against his chest, tilted her head upward, and kissed her till her anger dissipated.
"You look good," he complimented her while she tried to catch her breath.
"Seriously, I don't understand why I love you," Emily shook her head before she lowered his head by grabbing onto the lapels of his shirt and kissed him the way she wanted this time.
They almost lost control had she not remembered they had a date to catch.
"And you came with your car," Emily admired the blue sports car he had brought.
"I'm not as poor as you think," he said.
"I was not implying that," Emily clarified.
"I know," he winked at her," I was just messing with you. So my lady,
get into the car," Judy opened the other side of the car for her to get in.
"Where are we going?" Emily asked as he started the car and began to drive out of her place.
"It's a secret," Judy stated.
"I hate surprises," Emily threw her head back, slumping against the seat and blowing air noisily through her mouth.
Something clicked in her head and she whipped her head around to him, "Come to think about it, you've never told me about your parents,"
"I don't know about them which is why I haven't told you about them," he said without hesitation.
"I don't understand,"
"I was raised in an orphanage, so I don't know whether they're dead or alive," he explained, his eyes glued on the road.
"I'm so sorry," Emily squeezed his head gently.
"There's no need to be sorry, I don't even know anything about them- "
Judy was still saying when a car from nowhere suddenly overtook them and blocked them forcing him to step on the brake abruptly to avoid running into it.
"What was that?!" Emily screamed, her hand on her chest while tugging back her hair getting in the way of her sight.
"Don't get out of the car," Judy ordered her and stepped out.
"What are you doing?" Emily asked but he had gone to meet the bastards who almost got them in an accident.
Wait a minute, why were they familiar? Emily scrutinized them and her eyes almost bulged out of her sockets when she discovered it was her father's people.
"Oh my God," Emily's heart skipped a beat when they all emerged with baseball bats.
"Judy, look out!" She screamed, her heart in her throat when they charged at him. Why were they doing this to him? Who gave them the right to do this to him?
As usual, Judy proved himself to be capable of warding off their attacks but more cars pulled up and more of her father's men arrived at the scene.
"Judy!" Emily screamed and this time, got out of the car and rushed to intercept their plans.
"Stay in the car!" Judy ordered her amid being beaten all roundabout.
Emily had almost reached him when someone grabbed her from behind.
"No! let me go!" She screamed, kicking her feet in the air furiously but whoever held her was very strong.
"No, don't hit him! Stop hitting him!" Emily cried out, struggling to be set free but they wouldn't let her run to him.
The girl screamed for help until her voice turned hoarse, her hair was disheveled with swollen eyes and tear-stained cheeks that left a streak of smeared rouge and mascara.
At last, they had stopped hitting him and she somehow freed herself from her capturer clutch and ran to him.
"J-Judy" she choked on her tears.
Emily cradled his head on her lap, tears streaming down her face like a waterfall.
Even though he was bleeding from the head and had a busted lip and a black eye, Judy was bloodied that it looked like he was bleeding from everywhere.
"Why are you crying?" He wiped away tears that flowed down her cheek, " You look ugly when you cry" he smiled at her.
Yet that gesture made Emily cry harder, " Who ordered you to do this?!" She yelled at the men who remained unmoving.
Suddenly, a magnificent looking car screeched to a stop a few meters away from her and Emily saw her father step out of it.
