100 Days to Seduce the Devil

Chapter 514 Guarding The Door

?

Day Fifty-Nine…

~~*****~~

Abigail and Dave didn't return to their respective cabins last night. They slept inside their tent.

It was already 6:00 am when they woke up. Just when they stepped out of their tent, Tatsumi passed by. He saw the two together.

"Dave and Miss Abi? I thought Nathan Sparks and Miss Abi were in a relationship." Tatsumi murmured to himself as he watched Dave and Abigail walking side by side with their entangled hands.

He frowned when he realized that there might be a possibility that Nathan and Jane would end up together if Abigail and Dave became the official couple.

'Damn! I should watch out for a competition.' Tatsumi thought to himself.

Tatsumi decided to look for Jane. Mr. Hiroshi reminded him last night to watch over his two precious daughters.

Meanwhile, Ethan also woke up and noticed that Jane was not around. He rubbed his eyes, his head turning from left to right. All he saw was Cherry sound asleep in Abigail's bed.

"Where's Mom?" Ethan softly mumbled. Since he reconciled with Jane, he began calling her again as Mom.

Ethan got off the bed and proceeded to the bathroom to wash his face. He decided to go back to his Dad's cabin to brush his teeth and take a bath before looking for Jane.

Ethan left Jane's cabin without waking Cherry up. The mountain resort was so quiet and peaceful. It looked like everyone was still sound asleep. He didn't see anyone outside.

Ethan made his way to his Dad's cabin. He didn't knock because he already got a key. He inserted the key and turned the doorknob. He gently pushed the door and entered the cabin.

The first thing that caught his attention was the basin scattered on the floor along with some pieces of clothes.

'What happened here?' Ethan mused to himself.

Ethan's eyes roamed around the room and he gazed up only to be shocked by the view he saw on the bed. Two figures were lying on the bed, covered with a blanket.

The young boy traced his steps toward the bed to verify something. His eyes widened in shock and his mouth gaped. He was at a loss for words. This was something he had never expected to see as early as this morning.

Soon, the shock was replaced by joy. His eyes lit up as he watched his Dad cuddling Jane in his arms. The two were still sound asleep.

Ethan even covered his mouth to hold his giggle. He didn't want to disturb the two. With a broad smile on his face, Ethan tiptoed as he quietly left the cabin.

He made sure to lock the door. And what he did next was stand by the door as if he was a security guard. He would guard it with all his life, not allowing anyone to enter the cabin.

Ethan didn't leave his spot and stayed there. Tatsumi, who passed by, noticed the young boy. He decided to approach him.

"What are you doing here outside? Where is your Dad?" Tatsumi asked him curiously.

Ethan maintained his expressionless front and said, "I'm just doing my morning exercise. My Dad is still asleep."I think you should take a look at

Tatsumi just bobbed his head. He just stared at the young boy strangely. He found it odd to see the boy just standing there doing nothing. But he didn't pay much attention to Ethan.

  "Okay. I'll go ahead. See you later in the breakfast hall." Tatsumi ruffled his hair before leaving. Though Ethan was Nathan's son, Tatsumi couldn't help but be fond of him. He was so cute and charming.

Ethan heaved a sigh of relief when Tatsumi walked away. He continued guarding the door. Stephen also saw Ethan from a distance. The young boy was like a statue in his spot.

"Why is he just standing there?" Stephen mumbled. He was sitting on the balcony of their cabin, drinking his coffee.

Aiden joined him, rubbing his temples. He still had a headache as a result of his hangover. "Maybe Nathan locked his door and Ethan left his key inside the room. Why don't you go and help the kid, Steph?"

Stephen shifted his gaze back to Ethan. He put down his cup of coffee and stood up. "Okay. I'll check on him. I put your hangover soup and med on your bedside table."

Stephen headed to Nathan's cabin where Ethan was standing still. 

"Good morning, Ethan. How is your Dad? Is he still asleep? Did you forget your key?" Stephen approached the young boy.

"No, Uncle. I have my key. My Dad got tired last night so he is still asleep. Let's not disturb him." Ethan grabbed Stephen's hand, guiding him out of the balcony. He was sending him off.

"Then why are you standing there like a guard?" Stephen asked the boy suspiciously.

"To make sure that no one will barge into my father's room," he promptly responded with an innocent look in his eyes. Then a wide grin appeared on his face.

"You are so thoughtful, Ethan," Stephen commended him, stroking his hair.

'Of course, Uncle. My Dad and Miss Jane are having a special moment there. I don't want anyone to ruin this.' Ethan added to his thoughts, unable to hide his joy and excitement. Then he tossed a look at the closed door, feeling hopeful. He wished his Dad and Jane could start over. Today was a good sign.

Meanwhile, inside Nathan's cabin, the two people were still lying comfortably in each other's arms. Nathan smiled in his sleep as if he was having a sweet dream. He moved and pulled the delicate woman in his arms. 

He hugged her tightly and settled his nose on the crook of her neck. Her scent gave him a soothing feeling inside. Jane's back was facing him, and her body was enclosed by his strong arms. The only thing that covers her body was Nathan's shirt.

It did not take long before Nathan finally woke up. He slowly opened his eyes only to be greeted by Jane's slender neck. Nathan blinked several times, trying to adjust and clear his vision. Was he still dreaming?

Nathan moved his arms only to find out that he was holding onto something soft. 'I am hugging someone.'

With that sudden realization, blood rushed down his face and he let go of Jane. He sat up to check and confirm the person lying beside him. Nathan froze and his mind went blank as soon as he recognized the woman in his bed. It was Jane!

Nathan didn't know if his mind was playing tricks on him. How did she end up in his bed? The blanket that was covering their bodies a while ago slid down when he suddenly sat up. His eyes widened in horror when he realized that he was half-naked and Jane was only wearing his shirt. 

'What the fuck?' he cursed in his mind. He was shocked beyond belief. He was still trying to figure out and recall what happened last night when Jane moved and turned in his direction, facing him. Jane opened her eyes and saw Nathan's indescribable expression.

"W-What are you doing here?" Nathan asked her in confusion.
