“I’m going to keep you away from fires from now on,” he said with a disapproving shake of his head.

“Sorry. I should have told you before...” I murmured apologetically.

Honestly, I just didn’t know that my reactions would be this severe. I thought that I had gotten over my fear and it had been a while since something like this happened to me. In the end, I was probably just fooling myself that my condition had improved.

“Stop apologizing. You’re making me feel guiltier than I already feel,” Adrian told me with a kind smile.

He gave my hand a comforting squeeze. His presence next to me always helped to calm me down. He didn’t even have to say anything much at all. Just seeing and feeling him close to me made me feel strangely reassured. It felt like everything will somehow work itself out if he was by my side.

“Are you free today?” Adrian asked.

Good question. I don’t think I’m free today, but I just haven’t talked to Justin if there was something for me to do or not. The way Adrian’s eyes stared hopefully into mine told me that he wished that I was free for the day. I also began feeling the same way. He’s my client too so...

Am I being unprofessional for favoring him over my other clients at this moment?

.....

“Yes...I’m free...” I replied as I got lost in his beautiful eyes again.

“Great. I don’t want to push you too much after...” Adrian said before clearing his throat.

After fucking me countless times last night?

I finished his sentence for him in my head as my lips curved into a sweet smile. My pussy still ached, and I was sure that as a doctor he must know that as well. I had no idea what left a more lasting impact on me, my fear of fire or the love we made last night.

“I’ll be fine...” I replied.

“Umm...yeah. If you’re free, do you want to come to pick Millie up from her school with me?” Adrian suggested brightly.

This sudden turn of conversation was quite unexpected, but I did feel excited to go along with him. It felt like he was eagerly trying to make me part of his family and I really appreciated that.

“Sure. Let’s go,” I replied enthusiastically.

“It’s not as fun as it sounds. It’s more like a chore but...yeah...” Adrian said with a small laugh.

I was sure that any chore with Adrian could turn into a sweet and fun exercise. He stood up from the bed and offered me his hand.

...

Adrian and I arrived at Millie’s school after a while of driving. As expected, Millie went to a special school dedicated to privileged children of the rich, famous, and wealthy. The school resembled a castle with a large garden and playground. It was the end of the school day and many parents, and their kids were walking around.

“Do you pick Millie up from school often?” I asked as I walked at his side.

As always, Adrian held my hand firmly in his. It really made me feel like we were a real couple and picking up Millie together with him made me feel like we really were a family. I wouldn’t go as far as to say that I had developed any motherly instincts or feelings toward Millie, but I did like the girl.

“Unfortunately, no. I try my best to pick her when my work allows for it, though,” Adrian replied with a smile.

Being the CEO and a single parent must be hard work for him. I’ve heard that it was rough raising children even when both parents were around. Adrian led me into the school’s building and soon we arrived at the room where the children were waiting for their parents or guardian to pick them up.

“Oh, Millie! Look your father is here to pick you up today!” a young woman exclaimed excitedly.

I smiled as I thought that the lady looked more excited to see Adrian than Millie did. Millie turned to smile at her father before making her way quickly toward us.

“Are you happy that I’m here to pick you up today?” Adrian asked as he smiled down at his daughter.

“Yes!” she replied happily.

I couldn’t help but smile along with the two of them. Millie truly looked happy. Seeing her so happy made it hard for me to believe that there were issues bothering this little girl. However, I also knew better than to assume that everything was all good and rosy just because it seemed that way.

“Thank you for coming today,” the lady said to Adrian before she smiled sweetly at him.

“Thank you for taking care of Millie,” Adrian replied politely.

“Elena. How are you?” Millie asked as she looked up at me.

The worried look on her face told me that she must have been worried about me fainting. I wondered how much Adrian or her nanny told her about my condition. There really wasn’t anything worth for her to worry her little head other, though. Still, I was quite happy that she seemed to care about me. Maybe, she was just as kind-hearted as her father is.

“I’m fine now. Completely fine. So, don’t worry about me anymore, ok?” I replied as I reached out a hand to pat her shoulder softly.

“Good! Ok!” Millie replied with a bright smile.

“Let’s go, Elena,” Adrian said softly to me as he wrapped his arm around my waist.

“Sure...” I mumbled.

Something about the atmosphere made my body feel stiff. It was like we were being watched; however, it could have just been my imagination, so I tried my best to ignore it. When we got in the car, I felt relaxed and normal once again. However, there was a nagging feeling at the back of my mind and when I glanced back at the school building as Adrian drove off, I was convinced that there was more than met the eye at the exclusive school for privileged children.
