Chapter 67 - Out Of Tune
Keira now understood that there's no perfect love or perfect relationship. But if it's the right person, you'll feel everything as perfect. She shrugged off the loneliness from Arianna's story. She knew that her husband won't do the same to her. Although they've been away from each other and she didn't remember anything about him, he knew that her husband was nothing but caring, lovable, sexy, a little dominant but oozing hot.
"So, I heard that you are giving your compositions to the winners of the contest?" Arianna asked.
"Yes, I had in mind for their solos." She smiled at her. "But I have a particular song that I want to collaborate with you on."
"Yes, I am so glad. We can put it on bonus then? And of course, you'll have the part for it." She winked.
"You can put it on your album but this song is for my hubby."
"Oh," Arianna's eyes widened. "What's the title?" She asked.
"I haven't had a title for it. But now that you asked. It's more like The Moon wanted to Embrace the Sun."
"How about the Moon Embracing the Sun?" Arianna asked.
"I love the title." Keira grinned.
"Well, sing it for me!" Arianna stood and gestured to the piano.
Keira cleared her throat.
"I haven't practiced but," She stood. "I'll give you my piece, I'll play it on the piano while you sing for it."
Arianna read the lyrics after Keira gave the music book to her.
"This is like a poem."
"It's a poem and it's more beautiful to write a song like a poem with rhyming words," Keira said as she sat on her grand piano and opened it. She started playing the keys starting with soft and gentle notes.

After Arianna left, Keira's head felt like it's been hit by a sledgehammer that she nearly stumbled from walking.
"Madam." Johanna and Vanessa quickly hold her and take her back inside her office. "Madam, what's wrong?" Johanna asked.
"Maybe I'm just tired." She mumbled. This time, her head felt like breaking as there were flashes of memories as she played the piano badly and out of tune.
She felt the bouncy leather sofa and they lay her down. Vanessa even removed her shoes.
"Get some blanket and notify Mr. De Alegre," Johanna told Vanessa who quickly went to the drawer and pulled out the blanket. Johanna placed it over Keira as Keira breathed in and out. "Madam," She called again.
"I'm fine. You don't have to call Ales." She mumbled. "Please go back to work."
"How about water?" Johanna asked. "I'll leave it here then. Warm water." She said.
"Yes, I'm going to sleep this off and wake me up later." She told them as her ears started ringing. They finally leave her.
Keira groaned as she heard herself screaming and playing the piano madly and out of tune.
"Stop screaming, please, Keira." Alessandro hugged her from behind and kissed her cheeks. "You'll break your voice. Please don't do that."
"Then who is she?" She tried to resist him. She covered her face and kept on crying.
"Are you calm now and ready to hear me?" he asked softly. She didn't respond but she kept on crying. "But always remember that I only love you."
She opened her eyes as she felt a hand caressing her. She sat up as her husband pressed his lips to her forehead.
"My poor wife," He mumbled. "Let's go home?" He asked.
"Will you carry me?"
"Yes, of course." He kissed her lips. "Your water was already cold so I replaced it with something warm." He reached the mug and gave it to her. She sipped on it and sighed. He put her shoes on as he went to her table which is now organized. He took her purse and her coat. Then, he put the coat on her and carried her to their car.
She cuddled with him and played with his tie as their car traveled throughout the busy city.
"Did we ever fight back then?"
"We do." He kissed her hair.
'Then, an extreme fight?" She asked again.
"Hmm," He caressed her hair. "What do you remember?" He asked softly.
"Screaming and playing the piano madly. I don't want to listen to anyone at that moment."
"We had a big fight." He mumbled. "It's the biggest fight that we ever had for our three years relationship."
"And about a girl?"
"Hmm,"
She hugged him tightly and looked up at him.
"You didn't do it?" She asked and he smiled at her.
"No. I would never do it to the love of my life. Besides, all I do is protect you, love, and be truthful to you. I can't cheat on you, my love. It's a dying wish of my mom."
"Your mom?" She creased her brows.
"Well, before I transferred to your school. I have a crazy ex-girlfriend who beat me. I could never hurt a girl because Mom told me so. But, when mom noticed my bruises, I could do nothing but tell it all to her. That ex-girlfriend that I had sex with when we were together. We only do it once and so, when she wasn't satisfied she cheated with another and I caught her." He sighed. "I tried to break up with her but she threatened me that she'll kill herself. Then, I stayed."
"That's harsh." She mumbled. He smiled and scooped her face.
"My dad and mom helped me escape her since she started beating me and implying that I was cheating on her. That's why I dropped off from that school and moved to your school."
"Hmm," She pointed to her nose. "Then it's good that you are with me."
"Yes, it was." He mumbled and kissed her lips.
"I'm tired." She raised her hands and wrapped them around his neck. "Shall we have a quick dinner and then sleep?"
"I'm tired too and I like your idea."
Keira leaned on his chest as her husband's arms tightened. Her head was a little messed up. And the girl that she got angry about must be that psycho. It must be her. Sure that girl is lingering around her husband. But it came from her husband's mouth that the ex-girlfriend was crazy that she could manipulate anyone. She manipulated Alessandro too and seduced him back in high school.
"Dad contacted me," He caressed her hair. "It's better if we live in the mansion than in the penthouse. So," He rubbed her back. "We have to move in there."
"Then, how about your step-mom?" She looked up at him.
"She'll be out of the picture like she always was." He caressed her hair. "Don't worry, my love. You are safe even though I am a few buildings away from you."
"I'm not worried." She kissed his neck. "You are always worried about my protection." She giggled.
At the time that they reached home, have their dinner. Alessandro planned to stay awake and thought about his conversation with his father during their private lunch. He told him about his plans that will soon be executed after the surprise engagement. His wife looked so tired after she drank her medicine on headache and he's relieved that he's not bothering her.
Suddenly his wife sat up and smacked his chest.
"Sleep." She demanded him. She rubbed her eyes. "I don't want your headache to come back." She still looked sleepy. She eyed the phones beside them. She slipped off from the bed and gathered the gadgets and put it on their walk-in closet away from their bed. "That's better." She crawled over the bed and straddled her husband who looked amused. "Aren't you going to sleep?" She frowned at him. "Or do you want me to take that energy?"
He giggled and scooped both of her cheeks and squeezed them.
"I thought you were asleep."
"I was." She groaned as she started rubbing his man that magically gets hard. "Oh, you are ready." She giggled. "I was dreaming about something hot with you. Now, I have to make that dream come true."
"I'm waiting until you are ready." He teased her.
She only fell asleep when her husband was already drained and sleeping soundly. The couple was tangled at each other but at the same time, someone was watching them from the open curtains.
On the other side of the building, an apartment building, a woman in brown hair wearing nothing peeked at her telescope. She saw it all how that handsome man got pleased by his wife. It looks sensual and too good that she watched Alessandro's expression that he never had to any woman. But soon, she'll make sure that she could see that relieved expression again while the wife which she refers to as a slut riding on him.
"Peeking at them in the middle of the night?" The man snorted.
"I am peeking at my man." She turned to him and smirked. "You are just my toy. Now go back there and make yourself heard." She demanded him.
"Wendy, just looking at you like that made me already hard." The strange man winked as he approached her. "I'll take you to that open window and make sure everyone sees you."
Wendy smirked as she let the man please her like a Queen.
"Can you kill her for me?" She asked him as she knelt in front of him and used her hand and mouth.
"Go on…" He mumbled. "Don't stop. I'm near."
"Can you kill her for me?" She asked again. "I'm not going to make you come if you didn't answer." She said and showed his tongue playing it on him.
"Yesss, I will."
She smirked and did what she needed to do. Soon, she'll have to get rid of him after she's done with her plans.
