Lucien was always bothered by the fact that he didn't know Serena's true identity even though he had made love to her twice in one night. Serena refused to answer the man's question. The woman turned her back, her back to Lucien. Makes the man even more curious. His hand grabbed Serena's shoulder to turn the body to face her back. "Answer me, is all this just your game? You're not crazy. " The man declared Serena is not insane.

Serena opened her eyes to look at Lucien. She wanted to laugh seeing him frustrated by it. "I never said I was crazy."

"Then why does everyone say that?"

"But, have you also forgotten that all crazy people will never admit to being insane." That statement made Lucien even more confused. It's true what Serena said. There will never be a crazy person who claims to be mentally ill. "So, you decide whether I'm crazy or not."

"You're not helping." Lucien grumbled at Serena, who had closed her eyes again. The man knew Serena wasn't sleeping because the woman was still grinning smugly. While seeing the expression on the woman's face, Lucien looked at her once again. "Why are you hiding yourself?"

Serena didn't open her mouth again and let Lucien's question hang in the air. After Lucien was sure that the woman would not respond to him again, Lucien gave up on asking Serena. He put his arm around the woman's body which Serena immediately brushed it roughly. The woman's eyes opened again, and stared flatly at Lucien. The gaze returned, Lucien thought.

“The guests are still downstairs and waiting for you. You better get out of here. " The woman's orders angered Lucien.

"You have no right to kick me out."

 "Why would you have a celebration like this if you didn't greet guests well."

"Andrew will replace me there." Lucien stubbornly put his arm again around the woman's waist. Make Serena even more annoyed at him.

"You have your own room, go away!"

Lucien rose from his sleep and crushed Serena's body in seconds. “When I want to hug you, I'll do it. Likewise, if I want to make love to you, you will do what I ask. "

“No, we did it earlier because I was bored and wanted you. Not because you want it. Next time, I won't do it with you again. "

Lucien's eyes hardened. The man was irritated by Serena's condescending manner of speaking. Lucien hold her chin then wrenched a harsh kiss from Serena's lips until she gasped and ran out of breath. After she struggled and beat Lucien's chest, the man finally let go of her lips. "You bastard!"

Lucien raised the corners of his mouth up in satisfaction. He annoyed her. “I told you I'll kiss you when I want to. No need for your approval. "

"You never wanted that from me before!" Serena snapped. Then after that Serena turned her back again and didn't say anything else even though Lucien had tried to lure the woman out of her argument.

Serena's breaths had turned slow and steady, indicating that the woman was really sleeping. He sighed and then started to dress, after which Lucien left Serena who was already asleep and returned to meet his invited guests, some of whom had started saying goodbye. Only a few friends whom he considered close are still waiting and continuing to talk about their business.

As Lucien came down to them Andrew grinned at him. "You finally succeeded in conquering that woman?"

"Otherwise. That woman who conquered me. Embarrassing." he didn't lie to Andrew. If Serena hadn't teased him, he wouldn't have touched her tonight. "Tell them all to disband, Andrew."

Andrew was surprised, because the show still didn't finish as they had planned. "The top event has not been carried out."

"I do not care. I want them all to get out of this house. "

“But, Lucien .. What's wrong? Is there something you have to do tonight? " Andrew asked curiously because his boss had never canceled a party before. Moreover, the remaining guests who were still there were close friends of Lucien who were waiting for the peak event but Lucien insisted on disbanding.

"Nothing. I just want to get back upstairs. "

Unconsciously Andrew immediately looked up and he frowned. "You mean. . Ah!" Andrew understands. "Are you going back to see Serena?"

“I will spend my time with her. Not with them. " Lucien pointed at the rest of the guests with his chin.

Andrew scratched the nape of his neck because he was confused about what Lucien got from a woman with a mental illnes like her. Did that woman understand what the two of them were doing, or was it because Serena didn't understand that she wanted to play Lucien? Because if he saw Lucien's face right now, he was clearly getting what he wanted from her. It is highly unlikely that Lucien and Serena did not make love as long as they locked themselves in the woman's room after the fight between Lucien and Guzman, the man who seduced Serena. Or rather, the man who was teased by Serena because everyone had clearly seen the woman teasing Guzman first.

"Okay I will send them home."

Lucien nodded at Andrew and then he hurried over to Serena's room. When his hand tried to open the door, the heavy wooden plank didn't move an inch. “Damn it, Serena! Open the door! " Shouted Lucien from outside.

Inside the room Serena chuckled softly as Lucien tried to get inside. But of course the man couldn't, because after Lucien walked out of his room Serena immediately locked the door. Now Serena is trying to sleep, ignoring the loud knock on her bedroom door.

He thought he was about to fall asleep when a loud sound caught his ears and made him gasp. Serena immediately grabbed onto her elbow and saw what happened.

Lucien managed to get into his room, the man broke the lock of the door because at this time he saw a tool in his hand that Lucien was throwing to the floor randomly.

The man's face was so creepy that it made Serena unable to think, he just stared at Lucien in horror.

Lucien walked over to him, one knee he climbed onto the bed and his hand tugged on Serena's chin. "I told you, don't play with me." The man hissed at Serena's still mute face. "I warn you once again, don't test my patience."

As she regained consciousness, Serena instead lifted her chin higher. Bring his face closer to Lucien. "I've finished playing with you. You can go back to pretending I'm not in this house. as usual. I don't mind that, that's exactly what I want. "

Lucien growled to her, how could he pretend that she didn't exist. Meanwhile, the image of Serena's face while being under his body continued to rotate in his head. No, long before he made love to Serena, Lucien was already haunted by guilt for wanting a mentally insane woman like Serena to satisfy his passion. God and Andrew are witnesses. He repeatedly reminded himself that what he wanted to do with Serena was wrong because the girl is innocent and doesn't understand anything about a husband and wife relationship. But now that he knew that this woman was not crazy and even very good at it, Lucien could not help himself anymore.
