The Billionaire's Kept Woman

  Keira was like a child. She was excited to go to another place. She couldn't research the country since she was busy packing up clothes. Her mother also bought her warm clothes since it was winter in that place. Their private jet was also on standby. 

"Are you sure that you won't come?" Keira asked her mom and dad. 

"Darling, you enjoy your vacation." Karmina smiled at them sweetly. "Do you want to go with them, Alex? You can find a new wife." 

"Oh, come on. Stop teasing me already." Alex crossed his arms. 

"Well, too bad. You won't be able to enjoy it, dad." Keira teased. 

"I will stay in the house. Go and enjoy your vacation together." 

  Keira hugged each of them and they entered the car as her husband followed. She waved at them like they are off to some honeymoon. Alessandro quickly held her hand and she leaned on him. 

"Love, I was thinking that we should re-act our first encounter?" She asked him. 

"What do you mean?" He asked and reached her forehead. "You mean when we were kids or when we were teens?" 

"No, silly. I was talking about that night." She looked up at him and winked at him. He looked down at her. 

"What?" He was puzzled and thought about it. Then, he somehow remembered how to become a bad boy toward her. But it seemed like she was in love with that bad boy. "Babe, I wasn't a gentleman." 

"I don't mind." She snuggled to him and clung to him.  "I love it when you become a bad boy." She purred like a cat. He laughed and kissed her forehead. 

  It was a happy trip for both of them. No one from the Charles Empire can follow them since Karmina managed to divert their enemy's attention into something horrible. While they are happy, currently, Wendy was losing her mind again and Klaus was planning on how to control Victor. 

  After and a half drive to the airport, they finally hopped into the luxury jet plane that her husband recently bought. 

"I can't wait for us to get there." She said excitedly as she gaped at the beautiful furniture and there was also a private bedroom for them. "Wow." 

"We have a bedroom," he said and he took her there. She gasped after seeing the bedroom. 

"Wow, it's beautiful." She rushed to the bed and dropped her body. She sighed happily and looked at her husband who placed their bags on the safety cabinet. 

"Are you hungry?" He asked. 

"No. Can we leave now?" 

"Let me check with the pilot. Stay here." He put his phone on the 

  She smiled and snuggled to the pillows. Suddenly, Alessandro's phone started ringing. She sat up and reached for the phone. She stared at the unknown number but she answered it. 

"Alessandro," A male's voice made her frown. 

"May I know who this is?" She asked. 

"Oh, Princess Keira." The man laughed and she recognized that voice although she only encountered him many times. 

"Why are you calling in my husband's number, Ken?" She asked in a very strict tone. 

"Well, I was only going to ask him if he could visit Wendy. You know her, she's losing his mind because of the gift you sent." 

"What gift?" She was puzzled but then she realized that it was the thing that was sent by her mother. 

"Well, this will be bad news, don't you think, Princess?" 

"I won't let my husband visit your lunatic sister, Ken. Do you think that if my husband visits her, she will be cured? There's no cure for mental illness unless she had it cured by herself." Keira sat back on the sofa. "You see, your sister had killed so many people. Innocent people. She killed them because she's insecure. Instead of practicing on people as lab rats, why won't you experiment on her?" 

  Ken was silent for a while but then he laughed. 

"I think you are right." Ken chuckled. "Just tell your husband that I called." 

"Whatever," 

"Nice talking with you," Ken said in his usual carefree voice and then he hung up. 

  She sighed and put the phone away and shortly, her husband entered and looked at her for a while. 

"What?" She asked coldly. 

"Something wrong? Or something happened?" He asked. 

"Yeah, Ken Charles called." 

  He stopped and stared at his phone. 

"And yes," She nodded her head. 

"What did he say?" He asked as he removed his coat. 

"He was thinking that you should go and visit Wendy. She's losing her mind." She removed her shoes and lifted her feet to the bed. 

"She's not my responsibility." He grumbled. "Do you want to eat?" 

"No." She crossed her arms. 

"Love, you can't let him get into your head." 

"Yeah, he's just annoying." She rolled her eyes. "I think my mood will change as soon as we get there." 

"It is more than eight hours flight, baby. We can have some mojito." 

"Yeah, sure." 

  The couple went to the lounging area where their bodyguards were gathered. They are having fancy drinks. 

<><><><>

  The eight hours of travel lead them to drink and sleep. Keira was groggy as soon as they landed in the Kingdom. She put warm clothes on in a very stylish way while her husband only put on a thick coat and gloves. 

"You look pretty." He said while glancing at her. 

"Thank god that you noticed." She said sardonically. He grinned as he put a scarf around his neck. Then, the steward took their luggage. "What's the first stop?" She asked. 

"They have a very old and old cafe here." He said as he checked the tablet as soon as they entered their car. "Let's go there first." 

  She snuggled to her husband and slid her hand inside his coat. She easily gets cold and that's why he makes sure that she has warm gloves, warm socks and stockings, and a scarf. 

"How long are we staying?" She asked while looking up at him with those big beautiful eyes. 

"For like a week or so." He grinned and kissed her forehead. "You looked adorable my love." 

"You should keep saying that every day." She rolled her eyes but she shoved her face to his chest. 

"Even though I won't say it, you are adorable as fuck." He grumbled. She stared at him and froze for a long. 

"Did you just say adorable and fuck in one sentence?" 

"Yeah," he chuckled and patted her head. 

"Are you horny?" She creased her brows. 

"No. It's cold." He laughed at her. Her eyes widened as she looked down at his crotch. 

"Babe," She grinned like a maniac. He shook his head as he quickly pulled her hands from his waist and pushed her to her seat. He grabbed the blanket quickly and placed it on her. 

"No." He scolded her as he took the cushion and placed it over his lap. Keira started laughing and she moved to him. He moved away from a little until he hit the end. "Keira, please. Stop teasing." He frowned at her. She stopped and moved to her side while she's laughing. He grinned and watched her laugh carefree. He loves it. This trip was worth it. She was happy. 

  They shortly arrived in the cafe as the car stopped in front and they hopped out. Few of their bodyguards come with them as the car maneuver around to find a parking spot. Few people looked at them or more like they caught the residence's attention. They entered the cafe and she slid her hands to the pocket of her coat as she looked around. 

"Smells good." She commented and looked at the menu. 

"What can we serve you, Madame?" The barista asked. She looked at her husband since she's unable to decide. 

"What's your specialty? We will have it." He said as he glanced at his men. "They will have whatever they want." He said. 

"We will serve it right away. Please find a comfortable seat, Sir." The barista smiled. Then, he holds his wife's arm and takes her to the sofa. 

  She sat down and looked around. The photos were antique and there were pretty antique designs that she liked. She stood as she stared at the photo when she saw a familiar pendant. A beautiful woman with long brown hair smiling beautifully and gracefully. 

"That's Queen Lorena," An old man said and she turned her head to him. "The last picture of the Royal Family before the war." 

"Oh," She said and sat down. She was about to fidget on her hands. "So," She looked up at him. "Uhm, this is a stupid question because I didn't research about the country. Was it still monarchy or…" 

"It was a mixed, beautiful lady. Both monarchy and aristocracy." He said as he looked around. 

"Oh, okay." She nodded her head. The man then looked at her and stared into her eyes for a long time. He didn't say anything and he bowed his head. 

"Please enjoy your stay." 

  Then, he went to the counter. 

"That's weird." She whispered at her husband and scanned through the photos. He patted her head as he went through the tablet. "You are not working, right?" 

"No.." He grinned and continued scrolling through the tablet.
