Marcel could smell a light scent of women's fragrance in his nose, a kind of smell of flowery shower gel that carried the fragrance of spring, it was beautiful and triggered endless imagination.
If he wasn't in this situation now, he would have enjoyed it.
But, at this time he didn't have the chance to think about it more.
"Braeden, Braeden!" He heard the yelling of a woman, then there were the sounds of steps, then someone was saying this as if talking to herself, "Not back yet? That is not possible! Didn't we have a deal to meet tonight?"
As she said that, the woman seemed to have gone to the bedroom, and turned the light on.
Then, there was a sound from a different room as the woman came out, dialing a phone number.
She first had the speakerphone on, and the voice in the phone said, "The number you have dialed is turned off!"
The woman was getting impatient, "It's off!"
Then she threw herself on the couch, there was a voice out of the TV.
Rae and Marcel did not dare to move, was she the owner of this home?
Rae was surprised in her heart, ‘please don't stay in the living room all the time, how are we going to get out?’
She didn't know why Marcel wanted to investigate this case in this way, why they had to be sneaky? What if they were caught?
She was trembling a little and was immediately held by Marcel.
She stared at him scared, the light was good, and she could see the way he pressed his lips, his eyes showed a warning.
Rae got scared and looked down, she was nervous and shy and it made her face blush.
Through the shirt, Marcel could feel Rae's soft and warm body, her gentle hand was on his hips, there was a kind of magic that was waking the deep longing in him.
His dark eyes flashed, there was like a fire in them, showing his longing.
Marcel was now spreading out an aura of danger.
Rae felt it suddenly, and she backed off, but Marcel grabbed her again.
"Don't move!" His voice was hoarse, and very little so that only the two of them could hear, that hot breath was on her long neck, it was seductive, and tickling.
Her heart was beating loud.
Each heart beat was stronger than the one before.
Rae felt that it was about to jump out if she only opened her mouth.
She could feel how he changed, and she was even more nervous, "What if she doesn't leave?"
"Just stay quiet!" He said in a low voice at her ears, his warm breath was surrounding her ear, causing goosebumps on her beautiful neck.
Rae got confused and looked to the side, she looked right into his perfect and handsome face, her heart was even more anxious, and she looked to the side immediately.
Marcel's eyes trembled.
He lowered his head to look at her.
Her skin looked so smooth, her clear eyes filled with light, her lips were sexy, and she looked really withdrawing.
Marcel lowered his head, but just as he was about to kiss her lips, he suddenly stopped.
What was he doing?
Marcel looked to the side, and stopped himself.
Rae's body trembled, she had a feeling that Marcel was about to kiss her?
Did she think too much!
But it really looked like that!
Marcel suddenly pulled the curtains, it was a very small move, but Rae got so scared that she got closer to him.
Marcel only pulled the curtain lightly to see the people outside.
Rae was afraid that they might get caught, but Marcel was too brave, at least nobody noticed them.
Marcel saw the woman outside, she was watching TV, and his hands suddenly froze.
Rae noticed immediately what Marcel was doing, she asked in a low voice, "You know her?"
Marcel didn't speak, he took his hand off the curtain, then put it on Rae's shoulder, his eyes were showing her not to move.
Rae felt that she was living through hell, every second of it.
But, she could only endure it.
The two of them were facing each other, with their bodies turned to each other, Rae was sweating, but the person made no move of leaving, and they didn't even know who it was, it must be the owner of the house, otherwise, why would she have the keys.
From the TV they could hear voices talking about finances, most of it was news about the financial market analysis and stuff like that.
The woman was watching for about half an hour, she made two calls during this time, but it always said the phone was off, then the TV was turned off.
Then, the lights were turned off too, and Rae could hear the door was closed, and then it was quiet.
"She's gone!" Rae said in a low voice.
"Don't move!" Marcel pushed her down by the shoulder, "Wait a little longer!"
The two of them were there for a few minutes until the apartment was deadly quiet without a sound, only then Marcel pulled Rae out from behind the curtain.
Rae sat down on the ground, she was soaking wet, and she was exhausted.
Marcel lowered his head to look at Rae, then he took his phone to turn on the light, and went to the bedroom.
The light there was off, and he gathered what he needed from the room.
Rae sat on the ground for five whole minutes before she felt that she regained some of her strength.
She was skin on skin with Marcel for almost 40 minutes, this was such closeness that was exhausting for her.
But now was not the time to feel awkward, they had to solve this case, she took her own phone to turn on the light and look for Marcel.
With her light, she saw the house, it was a simple two-bedroom house, the living room wasn't very big, but because of the simple furniture, it looked very roomy.
Marcel was still in the bedroom.

the writing is quite childish, but maybe it's just the translations...
