Storm turns off the blow dryer as she finishes drying her hair. She just got out of the shower and was about to fix her some lunch. Edward went back to the city to go get the housekeepers that she had yet to meet.

Walking out of the bathroom, she eyes the room that was destroyed from her and Edward's...activities. She lowkey felt bad for having the housekeepers come and clean up their mess.

Storm makes her way to the kitchen but sees Edward walking towards the house with a man and woman. A smile makes its way on her lips at the sight of her husband and she changes her direction to walk over to them.

"Storm, these are our housekeepers, Gustavo and Kaure." Edward introduces, tucking her into his side.

"Prazer em conhece-lo (pleasure to meet you)." Storm politely says, Edward taught her the basic greetings of Portuguese.

Edward smiles down at her before turning back to the two. "Esta e minha esposa, Storm (this is my wife, Storm)."

The two waverly nods their heads and Gustavo clears his throat. "Com licenca (excuse me)." He departures while Kaure stares at the couple with a troubled face.

Storm furrows her brows but has a confused smile on her face as the woman slowly follows after Gustavo.

"Umm..." Storm looks up to Edward who was just smiling, rubbing her back.

"Let's just leave them to it." He tells her and pulls away from her, Storm quick on his heels.

"What was that about?" Storm whispers as they head to the kitchen. She watches as Edward opens the fridge to start cooking her something.

"She's afraid for you." He simply tells her, Storm tilts her head in confusion.

"She's afraid for me...?" Her eyes keeps on her husband's movement around the kitchen. "Does she knows about us?"

"More like she suspects about me." Edward corrects her, which made sense to Storm, seeing as you would think she was a mundane if she doesn't flash her eyes or use her powers.

"Oh." Storm straightens her posture, running her finger at the edge of the counter as she walks towards Edward who was by the stove.

Edward glances down at her. "She's native Ticuna. They have legends about blood-drinking demons who prey on beautiful women." He teasingly says.

Storm shows a toothy grin as she looks up at him. "She thinks I'm beautiful?" Edward lets out a small chuckle at his wife.

"Very beautiful."

He leans down to press his lips on hers. She lifts her arm to deepen the kiss but stops when a voice interrupts them causing them to part.

"Monster!"

Storm turns her head to look at Kaure holding the sheets with a mortified expression on her face.

"Hey." Gustavo says, passing by with the broken headboard.
