Chapter Fifteen: Feminine Wiles:

Mosh walked over Sakura Ai Palace, pouting. Noiz didn’t know how to get through to him.

“Baby, what’s wrong?” she asked. The mouse refused to talk to her. He spent the day mostly ignoring her and spending time with the baby when she was awake.

“Look, I’m sorry!” Noiz said. “How many times can I say that to you?” Mosh narrowed his disappointed eyes at her. The kitty sighed and dropped her shoulders.

“Come on!” his wife shouted. “Say something!” He walked away to his office. Noiz lowered her hand. Baby… She looked down at her lap. He’s still upset about last night, she thought. Noiz lifted her head. I have to make it up to him tonight. She took her time with planning the make-up.

Around seven o’clock, Mosh received a text from Noiz. He opened the message, unimpressed.

            Meet me in Aiko Suite.

Mosh shrugged to himself, looking bored. Still, the message had his curiosity. Well, might as well check it out. He got up from his desk and walked out of his office. The mouse stopped a trail of pink petals on the floor.

“Heh,” he said. Nice try so far. The mouse followed the trail into their bedroom. Noiz sat on the bed, waiting for him. She gave her a flirty little pout dressed in nothing but at robe. A little smile came onto her husband’s face.

“And what is all of this?” he asked. His wife leaned forward.

“A peace offering,” she said. “I really wanted to make it up to you somehow.” Mosh slid the door closed behind him.

“And this is your way of apologizing?” he asked. The kitty gave him a little pout.

“This was all that I could think of,” she said. “Please forgive me?” Mosh smiled and shook his head.

“Only under one condition,” he said. Noiz tilted her head at him.

“What’s that?” she asked. Her husband walked over and embraced her by the waist.

“Try not to doze off on me again, okay?” he asked. She gave him a smile and a little kiss on the lips.

“I promise,” she said.

“I’ll hold you to it.”

“Okay.” Once her robe hit the floor, the “apology” began.
