Marcus ignored Harlan’s remark. He leaned back in his chair, having finished his meal.
“When do you plan to leave?”

Marcus retorted sharply, “I'll make myself clear. Harm no innocents, or you'll find yourself at odds with me.” There was a deep seriousness in Marcus’ eyes. He was far from joking.
Harlan stayed silent fora moment before nodding and saying, “Rest assured. I’m only here for leisure. I've been away from city life for too long, and | missed it. I'll leave in a few days.”
He paused before continuing, “I’m not as ruthless as you presume. I’ve not forgotten the favor you once did for me.” Soon after, Harlan departed.
Marcus, on returning upstairs, found the bedroom bathed in darkness. Upon turning on the light, he found Millie sound asleep on the sofa, her breaths soft and rhythmic.
He could tell from her peaceful slumber that she was worn out.
With a quiet stride, Marcus approached Millie who was draped in a soft, light pink nightdress. The room’s temperature seemed to imbue a gentle warmth, painting her cheeks with a delicate pink hue.
Her sleeping form, covered in a sky-blue blanket with a slender calf peeking out, was alluring enough to make him feel a heat rising within him.

Ahandsface was mere inches from hers, the warm breath caressing her face.
She realized that she had been clutching his neck!
She remembered dreaming of finding a wall to embrace. Why was she in bed now?
Just as Millie was reeling in surprise and confusion, Marcus opened his eyes. Their gazes met, and Millie swallowed hard. He had awoken at the most awkward moment.
She was still clinging to him like a koala to a tree.
Her mouth felt dry as she asked, “Why am | in bed?”
