“How dare you lay your hand on her? She is mine!”
Marissa saw him going after the man who was trying to run away but then stumbled. The poor fellow wasn’t expecting an interference when he was threatening Marissa.
Rafael made him stand holding his shirt quite brutally and punched him on his nose. This time it was bleeding.
Marissa was standing there almost shivering. The face of that man wasn’t visible anymore but the red color on his face could be seen.
He was grunting in pain and wanted to throw some profanities in Rafael’s direction when a well–built man approached them and held him by the neck quite easily to throw him against the
wall.
Just then Marissa realized that they were no longer alone. Two well suited men who must have come out directly from a Bond movie were also there.
“Don’t forget to batter his face, Rafael told the men, “And chop off his hand.”
Marissa gasped at the order.
The man who was trying to touch her and was too confident a few minutes back was now pleading, “I’m sorry. I’m sorry. Please let me go, Mister. I didn’t know she was your woman.”
Marissa wanted to tell him that she wasn’t anyone’s woman, but his wailing was so loud that her ears were ringing.
“Sir, please forgive me. This won’t happen again. I’m a guest here. Please let me go. I swear I will never set foot in Kanderton again.”
Marissa saw Rafael coming her way unbuttoning his shirt.
What is he doing?
He took it off and helped her putting it on.
Crap! It reached lower than her dress. She looked down at the shirt that was surpassing the hem of her dress. The shirt also covered her bare arms.
Rafael’s arms were en loping her in his warm embrace.
“You alright?” he held her chin and regarded her face. Maybe looking for some injury.
Marissa who was feeling like her body was swimming through the air, at once leaned into him.
She raised her face and found him still looking down at her, “Can you take me out of here, Rafacl?”
“You can go and sit in the car. I’m not leaving the place without meeting a friend, Marissa found
it odd.
Meeting a friend? She thought he was here to save her. Whatever! At least she was safe.

He snapped his fingers to signal a suited man, “Take her to the car and make her sit. I need to

“Ca…can you… take me? To the car?” she asked him and found him looking at her face again.
“Sure, princess, he kissed her forehead and helped her walk towards the car. However, his grip tightened when her steps faltered.
Cursing under his breath, he got down to scoop her up and carried her to the car.
Once she was settled in the back seat, he buckled the seat belt around her and a cocky grin crossed his face, “I’ll be back in a minute.
His face was so close to her that even in her drunken state she could see every facial feature so
clearly.
“The only thing that’s not swimming before my eyes,” she told him with a giggle, “is your face.” This time again he didn’t speak but just watched her face for a few minutes.
His eyes. They lacked the usual laughter that used to be there for her.
She asked him in concern, “Are you mad at me?”
“That I can answer, once I return,” he said in a low murmur. Marissa could only nod and then wrapped her arms around his neck.
“Meet your friend tomorrow,” she said, “Stay here,” She felt his body becoming a rock against her, but his touch remained gentle.
“That won’t take time,” he said softly in her ear and kissed her cheek, “I promise.”
Seeing him shirtless in her room was one thing but letting him go like that in the swarm of
women was another.
She quickly took off his shirt.
“What are you doing?” this time his voice had a tinge of irritability.
“Wear that, Rafael!” she ordered him, “This is too revealing!”
“Oh yeah? Look who is talking,” with a chuckle he closed the door. She could still detect the smile on his face through the window.
“What’s so funny?” NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.
True to his words, he joined her in the back seat after a few minutes. The Bond movie men were sitting in front, and one of them was driving the car.
Marissa whose cheek was leaning against the window, quickly moved towards Rafael after unclipping the seat belt and leaned into his body.
“Let’s call it a night!” she said and then yawned loudly closing her eyes, “I’m so tired.” But then her eyes were wide in surprise.
“Rafael! Kids!”

“They are safe,” he tightened his grip around her, “They are still in the hotel. Obviously, I wouldn’t come to meet you without having them looked after by someone I trust.”
“Who is with them?”
“Joseph.”
“Oh. Ok” All satisfied after investigating him like a police officer, she again rested her face against his chest.
He smelled amazing.
“Thank you,” her eyes went wide when she heard him.
Horrified, she raised her head and looked into his eyes which had amusement in them.
“Did I say that out loud?” and he simply nodded.
“Don’t tell me!” she hid her face in his chest and moved her ass a little closer to him. She gasped loudly when his hand reached below her thighs and lifted her up to make her sit on his lap.
“Don’t worry. I’m trying to make things easier for you. Now keep smelling me as much as you
want.”
Marissa could feel the blush crawling from her neck to her earlobe.
“How you got here?”
“I have got my resources,” he said with a careless shrug, and she slapped his shoulder.
Her arms went around his waist, her face was under his chin and her nose was poking in his chest. He didn’t seem to mind any of it.
He was her knight in shining armor.
