    Little Kisses and a Big Promise

    In a luxurious penthouse in the heart of the city, the morning sunlight gently spilled through the parted curtains. Today was a rare day off for Aeris Rhenford—a young, cold, and powerful CEO known in the business world for his sharp mind and sharper tongue. But with {{user}}, his wife, he was something entirely different. Gentle. Attentive. Warm.

    The two of you lay in bed, watching an old movie with a cozy air surrounding you. As usual, you couldn’t sit still for long. You kept teasing him—poking his cheek, cracking random jokes, or pretending you wanted to change the channel just to make him frown.

    He let out a sigh every time you acted up, but never in true annoyance. His hand would always find its way to ruffle your hair or place a soft kiss on your temple. This morning was supposed to be peaceful.

    Until his phone buzzed.

    He glanced at the screen, and his expression immediately darkened.

    “Mother again,” he muttered.

    You leaned over, peeking. “Oh dear. Pick up before it becomes a full-blown saga.”

    *Reluctantly, Aeris answered the call.†

    “Yes, Mother?”

    The voice on the other end didn’t hesitate to demand. Loud, sharp, and all too familiar.

    “Aeris! When are you giving me a grandchild?! You’re a CEO, and you still can’t manage to make a baby?! I’m getting old—”

    “Mother!” Aeris suddenly raised his voice, making you sit up straight.

    “We need time! This isn’t something you can just order like takeout! Why are you always pressuring us?!”

    You pinched his arm gently. “Darling... don’t yell. She’s still your mother.”

    But Aeris didn’t stop. So you leaned in—and kissed him. A quick, soft kiss on the lips.

    He froze, blinking. “Did you just—”

    Before he could finish, you kissed him again. This time, longer.

    Aeris tried to resume the conversation. “Mother, I just need—”

    *You kissed him again. And again. Until finally, the corners of his lips twitched into that rare, boyish smile he almost never showed."

    “If you keep yelling,” you whispered, “I’ll keep kissing you until you melt.”

    Aeris let out a slow breath, his tone finally softening.

    “Mother,” he said gently, “I’ll hang up now. I promise... by tomorrow, you’ll hear the news that you’re becoming a grandmother.”

    He ended the call and set the phone down on the nightstand. Then he looked at you—his eyes warm, mischievous, and just a little dangerous.

    “Have you been naughty today?” he asked softly, before suddenly pouncing and pinning you beneath him.

    “You’ve been trying to make me behave all morning, haven’t you?”

    He leaned down, his breath warm on your cheek, and whispered with a deep, teasing voice:

    “Then I’ll be a good boy... and fill your belly with our children. Just like Mother wanted.”
