The Billionaire's Kept Woman

Chapter 109 - The Dream

"Conrad!"

He opened his eyes as sweat ran from his forehead and his eyes were wet. He stared up at the woman over him and he quickly pulled her down and hugged her tightly.

"What's wrong?" Johanna asked. "You were crying like crazy." She rubbed his back.

"You are here…" He whispered. He gently pushed her down on the bed and he looked down at her. He caressed her hair and her face. "You are here."

"Yeah," Johanna was confused.

"What's wrong?" She asked again and wiped his cheeks. "Why are you crying?" Johanna was confused and when Conrad shoved his face to her neck, he started sobbing as his arms were wrapped around her tightly. She let him be until he calmed down. With the pain that he felt, she somehow felt it too. She never saw a big man crying over a dream. But it must be traumatic.

Conrad sat up and turned his back from her.

"I'll get you water." Johanna slipped off from the bed and went to her mini-fridge and took out a bottle of water. She approached him and gave it to him.

Conrad looked around and noticed that there's only a small window. He slipped off from the bed, stood, and approached the window. He made sure that it's locked and the curtains were also closed. He needed to take her away from this area. A private house in a subdivision is much safer than this penthouse. He already looked for the houses in the same subdivision close to the mansion. He also has to visit EPUA tomorrow.

"Tomorrow, you have to sleep in your sister's mansion."

"What? Why?" Johanna was curious.

"I won't be with you at night. It's better if you are there, guarded."

"Okay, if that's what you want." She sighed and patted the bed. "Let's get back to sleep and drink your water."

Conrad sat on the small space on her right and hugged her.

"Come on, drink your water." She opened the cap and gave it to him. He drank half of it and put it on his side. "What did you dream about?" She asked. "Was it really bad?"

"Yeah," he pulled the duvet. Then, she moved to her left to give him space. "You have to be safe always. Okay?" Conrad caressed her hair and she turned to him and shoved her face to his chest.

"I will. If that would make you feel better."

He held the back of her head and kept her like that while he kept himself awake to protect her.

Keira watched as her brother held a gun. She didn't know what type of gun it was but he had his back on her.

"Harvey," She called and the silhouette of a man in front of them was frightening. Harvey signed her to stay back. A gunshot echoes as she screams. Then, her brother fell to the ground. She froze and looked at Harvey's body, lifeless. She was confused as she saw a few more dead bodies around her. Her mom, Johanna, Alex, and her husband, Alessandro. They are lying in a pool of blood.

"Keira." A man called. It sounds familiar.

Somehow, her eyes were open but she couldn't move and she started choking. She saw her husband above her, hushing her. She tried hard to move, but she couldn't.

"Relax." He said softly. "Don't think of anything. Just relax."

Keira breathed in and out as she relaxed. Then, she closed her eyes again and felt her husband's embrace.

"I'm here. I'm here." He said softly. After hearing that, Keira opened her eyes, her body felt sore but she reached her hand over her chest.

"Sandro?"

"Hmm?"

"I have a very, very bad dream." She told him.

"Those dreams aren't real. And I promise you, it won't happen." He said softly. "They can be signs too. We just have to be careful. I promise you, you'll be safe."

"I~I don't want you to promise that." Keira squeezed his hand. "What I want is for you to be safe. To be mom, dad, Jo, and Harvey to be safe."

"Yes, we'll be safe too," Alessandro said softly. "I won't let anything happen to mom, dad, Jo… Harvey."

Keira sighed.

"What time is it?"

"It's four." He answered and kissed her forehead.

"Let's visit Bonnie later." She said as she sat up. "The first hearing is also set today." She turned to him and kissed him.

"We should sleep more." He said softly. "I'll embrace you this time."

"We'll have to go to the hospital later. Okay?"

"Yes," He nodded and patted his chest. "Sleep here, love."

"I'll just drink water."

He nodded and watched her approach the table and drank her water. She came back and crawled on the bed. She smiled at him but somehow, she noticed his phone blinking.

"Someone messaged you at this time?" She asked. He looked at it and reached it. She lay on his chest and watched him open the unknown message. Then he frowned seeing bold letters and a photo of a naked woman.

HELLO LOVE! LOOK! I MISSED YOU. MY BREASTS MISSED YOU AND MOSTLY, MY MOIST DOWN THERE.

"What the fuck?" She commented and frowned. She reached for his phone and replied to it as she typed. "Stop sending nude photos to my husband. He doesn't like you."

"Her boobs and everything," Alessandro said.

"Okay," She continued typing. "He doesn't like seeing your boobs and everything because he has me. P.S. Your breasts are soggy. -Keira"

Alessandro burst into laughter and watched her delete it. They looked at each other and laughed. They just sent a reply to the lunatic murderer.

"Her boobs are bigger than mine." She suddenly said, ``I guess you have to change your number again."

"Nah, I'll give it to Harvey once I transfer it to another number." He said.

"Use my other number." She said and blinked in front of him to look adorable.

"Sure."

"But do you like bigger boobs?" She asked.

"Nah. I love yours." He pulled her up and kissed her forehead. They stared at each other for a while and laughed.

"I can't believe that we just sent it to her!" She exclaimed as Alessandro burst into laughter. The couple kept laughing. "We are crazier than her."

Alessandro rubbed her shoulders.

"I love you." He said out of the blue and she frowned.

"Uh, does that mean anything?" She asked.

"It means everything." He answered.

"I will not be able to have sex with you~~"

"Yeah, it's totally fine. We need a break." He rubbed her back. "You were tired from all of the problems that you are dealing with."

"You too." She hummed and a pillow over his chest. "You deal with lots of matters. Isn't the Charles Empire trying to put you down?"

"Yeah, it's all thanks to your brother who pointed out the spies in my office."

"He did that?" She asked.

"Yes," He caressed her hair. "You have less to worry about, my dear."

"Hmm,"

He kept caressing her hair until she fell asleep. He reached her phone and messaged Harvey about how Wendy could send email to him although he blocked her many times and he even changed his email. Maybe it's time that he would just let her and let his wife access it so she would trust him. His phone vibrates and Harvey's message comes.

Handsome Hulk: You got a crazy stalker out there, huh.

Handsome Hulk: She's sexy though, as a porn star.

Alessandro: I only have my wife set in my mind. Want to know details.

Handsome Hulk: Gross! I swear, if you aren't married to my sister, I might have already tortured you.

Handsome Hulk: I am currently torturing those bastards who hurt my woman and cutting off their dick.

Alessandro: Hays, I wish I could do the same to the bastard who played on my wife.

Handsome Hulk: Who?

Alessandro: I'm not going to say a single name. Anyway, I would like to ask for a favor. I don't want her to invade my emails again like this.

Handsome Hulk: Why not? The crazy stalker was sexy and pretty?

Alessandro: Teasing me into that woman won't do. She's a psychopath and I still won't forget that she nearly killed my wife.

Handsome Hulk: Okay, okay. I will shut up now. Then, I should send it to my men. If she sent another email, my man would automatically receive it and trace her.

Alessandro: Good, good. Sent the diamond so I could get it to the maker.

Handsome Hulk: Great! So, are you going to pay for it?

Alessandro: Whatever, you old man. Just sent it over. I'll do the rest.

Handsome Hulk: Kisses from your big brother. LMAO.

Alessandro finally put down his phone and closed his eyes as he patted his wife's head. He wondered what he should do to protect her from those assassins. Those assassins will still keep coming back. However, if she loses one of them, and if she loses Harvey again, she'll be sad and she might blame herself for it. All of these are happening because of him. He didn't want to push his wife away. He wants to be selfish because he loves her.

To keep her safe, Alessandro might give her up and go to that crazy woman. Probably killed her and got killed. But Harvey told her to stay with her always and he'll work out the rest. For now, he's getting insane and messed up, just to protect his wife and everyone around him.
