Slowly Ana shuts the door to Ayden's bedroom before heading down the stairs where Rayn and Jason were seated on the couch watching a movie. Furrowing her brows she steps inside the living room and looks at Rayn.

"Where's Adonis?"

"He went to the guest house. He wanted me to tell you to meet him over there when you were done putting Ayden to bed."

Silently Ana nods and heads into the kitchen to grab two wine glasses and one of their expensive unopened bottles of wine. Adonis didn't too much care for wine but these days Ana needed that plus more to keep her sanity around him. After the awkward dinner they had all had she was going to need this bottle plus more. As she turns to leave the room she sees Jason enter with the empty bowl to get a popcorn refill.

"Enjoy your night with your husband." He speaks as he places the popcorn bag in the microwave.

"I will. You should try focusing on Rayn instead of me and my husband tonight, you might enjoy your night too." Ana whispers.

"I'm only tryna help you ma. If you weren't so far up his ass you would want my help."

Ana pauses and rolls her eyes. Jason was starting to really annoy her and apart of her was ready to run out to the guest house and tell Adonis about him pushing up on her, just so he could kill him and shut him up for good.

"Like I said previously, you don't know shit about me or my husband. Because if you did know Adonis you wouldn't keep speaking to me."

"I ain't scared of that nigga."

"You should be."

Anastassia quickly makes her exit before Jason can respond.

"Call Adonis if Ayden needs anything before the morning. And for the love of God please fuck your man, he looks like he needs it." Ana speaks loudly to Rayn.

"Ana! Stop." Rayn giggles waving her off. "Go and have a Goodnight don't worry about us."

Ana shakes her head and exits the home with the wine glasses and bottle in tow. The closer she gets to the entrance of the home she grows more uneasy. Being alone with Adonis could always go really good or really bad, never in between always one extreme or the other.
She steps inside of the dimly lit home and sees Adonis sitting out by the pool smoking and enjoying the low music playing. Ana smiles growing hopeful that tonight would be a good one. Ana heads into the bedroom and changes into her two piece swimsuit before exiting the home to join Adonis outside.

"Took you long enough." Adonis speaks as the smoke leaves his soft pink lips.

"Sorry. Ayden didn't wanna sleep tonight." Ana responds timidly as she sits next to him letting her legs dangle in the warm pool water.

"Sure it was Ayden keeping you busy? Or was it someone else?"

Ana pauses and pours up a glass of wine before taking a long sip. Adonis never lets his eyes leave her as he waits for her to respond to his question.

"It was Ayden. Who else would it have been Don?"

"I don't know. I'm just wondering." Adonis shrugs.

Ana decides against asking him any other questions. Since she already knew he was referring to when he said "someone". Silence falls over them and before she knows it she's downed three glasses of wine and was beginning to feel the effects of the liquor. Her small hand reaches over and rubs Adonis's thighs and he looks over at her with a smirk playing on his lips.

"What you need butterfly?"

Ana blushes and shakes her head.

"You gotta tell me I'm not a mind reader." He whispers as he leans closer to her face.
