The Essence Of The Darkness
Episode 88: Xavier's Surprise

For a moment, Elana tried to thrash. It was all because his rational mind realized that they were currently out in the open, in the presence of other people who could see them so easily.

Elana's hand moved about to grip the Akram shirt, but then stopped instantly when she realized there was a scar of Akram's shot there. If he touched his hand carelessly, he could even touch Akram's wound that still has not healed properly and hurt the man.

Finally, Elana could only stand stiffly with clenched hands as Akram smashed his lips with a lustful deep kiss. The man smacked his lips with all his desire, as if what he was doing with a frenzy on Elana's body last night and also early in the morning was still not enough to satisfy his desire. His powerful lips pressed down on Elana's lips, while his tongue roamed like a battle troop charging into the fortress of Elana and pressing right at the place of Elana's weakness. The tongue was slowly tasting the surface of Elana's lips, then moving seductively, touching the open part of Elana's lips. As Elana gasped and opened her mouth slightly, Akram pushed her tongue in, before then teasing the entire mouth of Elana passionately.

Akram should have been punished for having such great smelling skills and using them mercilessly on a poor woman who did not have much experience.

Elana grumbled in her heart while her whole body was filled with uncontrollable trembling, feeling the pleasure of running her without being able to be dammed, making her legs become weak so that it would definitely fall if Akram did not hold her body and support her.

I don't know how long Akram satisfied himself intentionally and shamelessly. When Akram finally let go, Elana's breath was as chasing Akram's breath, desperately trying to get oxygen because they were too busy satisfying their passions with a very hot kiss.

Akram pushed Elana into his arms, rubbed her arms slowly and let Elana drown her red face blushing with immense embarrassment to his chest. The man seemed to be trying to neutralize his own breath and was relaxed by putting his chin on the top of Elana's head.

Elana let out a long sigh, just like Akram, she was also trying to calm herself down and neutralize her breath. But then, in his ear that was attached to Akram's chest, he felt the man was pounding hard. It was as if his heart was hitting his chest cavity with full force, driven by a desire to leap out from there.

Curiously, Elana raised her head and her cheeks were hot when she felt Akram watching her.

During this time, Elana almost never noticed, she always knew that Akram was a figure with a charming physical appearance, that is also evident by the number of women who are crazy about the man and dream to become his lover.

But, now, as the man was looking at him with deep glints of emotion and burning desire that were mixed into one, one, with reddened lips and slightly paled around him due to their hot kiss earlier and also with molars tightened like a tough fighter who was holding back from immediately rejoicing and claiming his victory results, Akram looked amazingly dazzling in Elana's eyes.

This was the first time Elana showed a dazzling glint as she stared directly at Akram, and Akram of course noticed. Unfortunately, it did not make the condition of his body that began to feel pain due to passion for the better, even worse, making him feel a primitive urge to carry Elana, who was not, take her to the nearest bed and make love to the woman.

But of course, Akram can't do that. There are things that must be prioritized and Akram knows that now, Elana's recovery is the main one. He had to be patient for the next dozen hours to be able to hug the woman again.

Akram gently kissed Elana on the forehead, then sighed the woman's body towards the medics who had been waiting in an awkward manner, misbehaviour over the heat-inspiring performance that Akram Night seems to have deliberately shown before them.

“I'll pick you up later,”

Akram said the promise, and let the medics take Elana to the treatment room as usual.

After Elana's body disappeared behind the passageway, Akram turned his gaze towards Xavier, getting ready for a confrontation.

Xavier tilted a wide grin, then tilted his head while watching Akram in a mocking manner.

“You may need a tissue over there,” they are currently in the living room area of Xavier, they said, and the man purposely pressed his chin towards the golden colored tisue box that was available on the living room table.

Akram followed the direction pointed by Xavier, then frowned furiously towards the man back.

“Tissue for what?” rough sambarnya.

Xavier leisurely moved his fingertips making a circular hovering motion before his own lips, his expression seemingly withstanding laughter.

“To remove Lana's lipstick stains from your lips. You're really mottled and pink around your lips. You certainly do not want to return to your company with such conditions, right?”

Xavier's reply managed to hit Akram hard, making a red hue instantly flashed across his high cheek hue. Akram said nothing, just took a handkerchief from his pocket and rubbed his lips slowly with a late elegant demeanor.

Elana actually does not use lipstick with a thick and striking color like other women. The woman only used something in the form of a pink stick similar to a lip moisturizer with strawberry flavor that became pink after a long time of use. That's why it's easy to moisturize the colored lips moved to Akram's lips after Akram kissed him with heat earlier.

Akram notes in his heart to order Elios to give a lipstick of the highest quality, with an inconspicuous color and not easily fade after he kisses Elana later. Because Akram believes, there are many opportunities in the future where he will kiss Elana many times spontaneously.

After being sure that his lips were clean from the pink mark that was stuck on, Akram put the handkerchief back into his pocket, then looked at Xavier with a serious expression as if nothing had happened before.

“I'll go as per your requirements, but there are things I should talk about with you,” he said in a deep voice and deliberately sent an intimidating tone there.

Unfortunately, Xavier seems unaffected by Akram's strong stance. The man still looked relaxed and once again nodded his head slightly.

Akram gritted his teeth, but he held back. It takes a very high patience to face Xavier's provocative attitude, it is still coupled with the burden of trauma that still hits him thickly, because every time he looks at Xavier's face, Xavier, immediately imagined the face of his first lover who lost his life with a body hanging on the ceiling of his treatment room. The shadow was certainly not as terrifying when compared to before he met Elana. Now, after Akram has Elana in his arms, somehow everything is traumatized and the terrible memories he has seem to fade, driven away by the happiness that fills his soul.

“Nathan called me this morning and gave me the report I asked about the effect of your antidote serum with ELana's condition. If ELana was really pregnant, Nathan said that it would not have a bad effect on her fetus. But of course I have to make sure of myself. Of course ELana remains my top priority, if the serum turns out to harm her fetus, I will think of a way to save Elana first,”

Akram's words this time managed to turn Xavier's expression from casual to overwhelming shock. It was as if the smile mask placed on his face was instantly torn apart and changed with widened eyes and open lips as if in disbelief.

“You.... You made Lana pregnant?” xavier exclaimed quickly, trying to ascertain the impossibility that had just grabbed his ear.

Akram cleared his throat, not at all expecting that Xavier would give a real surprised reaction. She thought that Xavier would taunt her, or perhaps even use Elana's pregnancy to threaten her and make things difficult for her. Akram is ready to argue and negotiate, so he is not at all ready to see Xavier behaving like a normal human being who is surprised to hear the news of Elana's pregnancy.

“I haven't confirmed that yet. But according to Nathan's conjecture, the odds were huge,” with narrowed eyes, Akram threw a blaming gaze at Xavier. “All because of your poison and your healing serum at once, Elana could not get her contraceptive injection because of that,”

Xavier immediately chuckled at Akram's sentence, the man regained his smile mask and shrugged leisurely.

“You're trying to find a scapegoat for your own carelessness? If you knew that Lana couldn't take a contraceptive injection, why did you keep fucking her and taking the risk?” xavier's gaze looked down at Akram and was full of accusations, “Is it because you finally considered my proposal and tried to restrain Lana by impregnating her?”

Akram of course would not say that at the first time, he made love to Elana because he did not know that the woman was in fertile period without contraceptive protection. Xavier mustn't know about his boredom that one. After all, for the second time, Akram keeps making love with Elana, knowing that Elana will get pregnant as a result of her actions. All of this was done consciously, with a strong desire to impregnate the woman.

“I did that not because of your proposal, do not look too highly at yourself,” Akram looked at Xavier with a haughty look, “Is the serum dangerous if indeed Elana is currently pregnant?” Akram restores their discussion to his previous main question, his attitude is impatient, waiting for Xavier's answer because whatever Xavier will answer at this time, he said, will determine what action will be taken by Akram next.

If Xavier says that serum is dangerous, then Akram will really put Elana's safety first. Even if it had to make her fetus.Their two children were trying to grow up to be terminated. Of course Akram will keep all the processes he did from Elana because he does not want to make the woman sad. But really, now Akram hopes the serum does not hurt the fetus that may already be in the womb Elana, so he can focus on keeping until Elana can give birth to their child.

Xavier watched Akram's tense expression waiting for his answer. This time he decided to be kind and put a brief end to Akram's suffering.

“Serum it is not harmful to the fetus. You can calm down.” Xavier learned the relief that immediately adorned Akram's face and he grinned. “You've already made your own plans huh? Are you planning to marry Lana, or will you keep her your mistress until you give birth to your illegitimate child?” he asked with an irritating fishing tone, making Akram's expression that had softened because of relief instantly hardened instantly.

“I'll treat Elana as a dignified woman. After all, the child who is my descendant, of course, must bear the name ‘Night’ officially,” he replied quickly with a slightly offended furious tone.

Xavier shrugged his shoulders.

“I just asked. Because I've seen all this time you seem to avoid anything related to marriage. I can't believe you turned out to voluntarily surrender yourself in a bond, with a woman I didn't think would subdue the savage Akram Night,” he mocked.

Akram immediately squinted his eyes. “For this reason, it also confirms to you that you have no more chances with Elana. She's mine,”

“Oh, he may be yours. But that won't stop me from making Lana my ally,” sambar Xavier shamelessly, filled with a deliberate mysterious tone.

Akram widens his eyes. “Elana is on my side, she won't want to be your ally."

“Oh yes? You don't even treat her well, how can you guarantee Lana will be loyal to you with your degrading treatment of her? For example, many dignified positions with light workloads you can give Lana, but you made him a cleaning service in your company who had to work hard to scrub the toilet and do various laborious work…. Is that how you treat your future wife?” cela Xavier with a straightforward accusatory tone.

“That's because Elana herself wanted it!” Akram says hard. “If I may choose, I won't even let it work! You think I'm happy to see him work like that? I can give you a job as my convenient private secretary, but, do you think Elana will accept it easily?”

“Later if I enter your company, Lana will become my secretary and personal assistant, and you can calm down because I promise to keep Lana comfortable in work,” Xavier suddenly replied in a confident tone, saying, making Akram's anger flared up until it almost reached its limit.

“What did you say? How dare you be so presumptuous?” akram's voice still sounded flat, while his hands were clenched, trying to refrain from slamming and hitting Xavier's dirty mouth right then and there.

Xavier scatted, leaning his body casually against the wall, then grinning triumphantly at Akram.

“In exchange for the factory and biological weapons research center I handed over to redeem Lana, you have made a deal with me by legally handing over your main company shares to me. It is only ten percent, but it is enough to give me the power to enter your company and choose my own private secretary.” Xavier shrugged his shoulders.

“For so long I have not been so fond of difficult office work. But specifically for your company I decided to give my dedication. I'll start working at your company on a regular basis starting next week. You may be too busy taking care of Lana to realize that I'm building my own work space by utilizing a large, empty meeting room located right next to your room. Meanwhile, for my personal secretary, I have already submitted the command memo to the personnel section, and once I have effectively taken office, then Lana will officially become my secretary and personal assistant. Although you are officially the owner of the company, but I am part of the shareholder commissioner and you have no right to annul my decisions regarding employees, it was written fairly in the stock purchase contract given by Elios to me,” Xavier's grin widened when he saw that Akram looked inflamed. “Oh, really I can't wait to see the days we can work well together in your company, Akram.”
