My Harem Will Help Me Get My Revenge-Chapter 30: Lucius, Cassey and the Shower (18+)

Chapter - 30

The sun was starting to set, painting the sky with soft orange shades. Iris sat at a corner table on the rooftop, wearing sunglasses and sipping black coffee.

Meanwhile, Lucius sat nearby, his arms crossed, as he scanned the area out of habit.

"He is late," Lucius muttered as he checked his watch, "Are you sure he is worth it?"

Iris sighed, "Well he is. He is annoying, but he gets results."

A minute later, a tall, lean man walked in wearing a bright floral shirt, tight jeans, and sunglasses even though the sun was going down. He waved like he was entering a party.

"Daaaamn girl, you still look rich and pissed at the same time," he said, pulling out the chair across from Iris and sitting down without asking, "Looks like I will be getting paid handsomely."

"Hello, Blake," Iris said dryly, taking off her sunglasses.

Blake leaned forward, grinning, "Did you miss me cutie?"

"I missed peace and quiet," she replied.

Lucius smirked but stayed silent.

Blake looked at Lucius and pointed, "You must be the hot assistant. I tried to find out about you. But you are a mysterious boy."

Lucius raised an eyebrow, " And you must be the clown. I don't need to find much about you"

"Hahaha... Feisty," Blake laughed, " But fair enough."

Iris crossed her legs and got straight to the point, "Get to the point. What do you have for me?"

Blake sighed dramatically, "It is always business with you." 

"No 'how are you, Blake?' or 'wow, you have been working out'?"

"I don't care if you have grown wings," Iris said, "Talk."

"You heartless girl," Blake shook his head, "Stop drinking this black thing. It corrups you," He said pointing at her coffee.

He then pulled out a small folder from his messenger bag and slid it to her.

"That's everything I have got on Drone Industries' plan. Marcus Drone is personally flying to India. That means they are serious." Blake told Iris.

Iris opened the folder and flipped through a few pages. Her face stayed calm, but her eyes were sharp.

"They are trying to buy out two of the family members. If they succeed, then you might not even have a chance," Blake said, sipping a fancy mocktail he ordered without asking.

Lucius frowned, "Is it legal?"

Blake shrugged, "Why not? It's just lobbying. And Marcus Drone has a big mouth and a bigger wallet. I am sure he can afford it."

"But there is something I am curious about. Why would both you and Marcus Drone jump into hotel business? And not just hotels from what I know you guys have been spending a hell lot of money on consumer businesses." Blake looked at Iris with a curious gaze.

"Food... Groceries... Clothing... Heck you are even selling diapers," Blake mentioned.

"And why are you so interested in this?" Iris asked, looking up.

Blake winked, "Because I like you. I care about you. So if I can be of some use... Hehehe... You would pay me a whole lot better."

Iris, on the other hand, looked at him in nonchalance, "I am sorry dear Blake. If I tell you this, I am afraid I will have to..."

"Kill me? Classic cliche," Blake chuckled, "That's the usual threat. Still waiting for someone to follow through."

She handed the folder to Lucius, "Don't wish for it. Someone might actually."

Blake leaned back in his chair, arms behind his head, "Oh, and a little bonus info... You will probably see Marcus very soon. He is landing the same night."

"Foes coming face-to-face," Lucius nodded slowly, "That should be fun."

Iris stood up, "We are done here."

"So cold. Can I at least get a hug?" Blake pouted.

But Iris just walked past him without even giving him a second look.

Lucius chuckled looking at Blake, "You are a weird guy."

Blake grinned, "That's why they remember me."

"Let's grab a drink some day," Lucius extended his hand for a handshake.

"I am sure we will," Blake shook his hand with Lucius. And then Lucius followed Iris out.

"We sure will..."

After a long and tiring day, Iris and Lucius reached home. As they walked upstairs, Iris turned to Lucius.

"Don't take too much time packing. We have to leave in three hours," 

"Pack only what's necessary." 

"I will text you when we need to leave."

Lucius nodded without argument. They both headed to their respective rooms.

Iris entered her room and sat on the bed with a deep sigh, "Such a busy day," she muttered to herself.

She knew she had to start packing soon, but exhaustion was weighing her down.

After a few moments of rest, she finally pushed herself up and began sorting through her belongings.

Meanwhile, Lucius wasted no time. He carefully placed his clothes into his luggage and made sure to include all the important files he needed.

And once his packing was done, he went to take a quick shower. The warm water felt refreshing, washing away the exhaustion of the day.

But unbeknownst to him, Lucius had an uninvited guest in the room.

He left the door open and taking this opportunity, Cassey had silently entered his room.

As Cassey peeked into the bathroom, a playful smirk on their lips as she watched him stand under the shower, completely unaware of her presence.

For a moment, she admired him, biting their lip. Then, unable to resist the temptation, she tiptoed inside, slipping through the shower door without making a sound.

Lucius had no idea someone was there... Until he suddenly felt a pair of hands wrap around his chest from behind.

It took him by surprise and turned around, his wet hair dripping.

"You? Cassey?! What the... What are you doing here?" he asked, his eyes looking visibly surprised.

Casey just giggled as she leaned back slightly, "Relax, Lucius," she whispered as her fingers slowly unbuttoned the top button of her shirt, revealing just enough skin to catch his attention.

"I just thought I would join you...help you unwind some of the tension."

"But here? In the shower?" a slow smile spreading across his face.

She stepped closer, her hands reaching up to touch his face.

"I couldn't stop thinking about you," she said as her voice barely above a whisper, "I wanted to see you."

Lucius grabbed her wrists, his thumbs brushing against her soft skin, "And what makes you think I want to see you?" he asked with a teasing smirk.

Cassey laughed as she heard him, "Because I know you do," she said.

"I saw the way you were looking at me, Lucius. I know what you were thinking," Cassey looked him in the eye and replied.

Lucius smiled hearing her as Cassey unbuttoned another button on her top.

The warm water soaked through her shirt, clinging to her curves.

"So you want to play, hmm?" he muttered, his hands instinctively finding her waist.

"Why not?" she teased, pressing herself closer.

Lucius exhaled sharply, "Think twice before you ask for something."

"I already did," she whispered, her lips just inches from his.

"There is no chance of backout now." he pulled her under the shower stream, letting the water drench her completely.

She laughed softly as he ran his hands through his neck.

She reached up, her fingers running through his wet hair, "Oh my my... It seems like you took that seriously."

Lucius smirked, his fingers playing with the last button of her shirt, "Did you have any doubt?"

He pulled her closer, his lips capturing hers in a fierce and demanding kiss. She moaned into his mouth as her body pressed against his.

When they were finally out of air, they broke apart, breathing heavily and their eyes locked on each other.

"You are playing with fire, Cassey," Lucius growled, his voice low and dangerous.

She grinned, her eyes gleaming with challenge, "And who said I don't like fire?" she said, her hands moving to his chest as her fingers drew circles on her chest, "I like it hot."
