Irene was the one who initiated it, but she was also the one begging for mercy soon enough.
Pressing herself against Isaac's chest, she said, "Your eyes haven't recovered yet..."
"Yes, but I'm still able-bodied..." he retorted, leaning in and reaching for her lips for a firm kiss.
Since it had been a while when they were together, he really missed her... especially physically.
And with Stan keeping watch outside, no one would dare to disturb them.
Soon, the skies turned dark.
Irene fell asleep, nestled in Isaac's arms.
She groggily heard Isaac's voice-Stan just came in, bringing food.
Opening her eyes, she asked, "Are you hungry?"
"I should be asking that question," Isaac smiled. "What time do you think it is?"
Irene glanced at the time to find that it was already night—she arrived in the afternoon.
And there went an entire day.
Getting out of bed and straightening her clothes, she told him, 'Let's get you cleaned up."
Isaac would need help with showers since he could not see, and he murmured softly. "Okay."
Irene smiled. "You mind not being able to see, don't you?"Isaac did before, but he was a little less upset about being blind around Irene after getting it on with
her.
With that, she helped him out of bed and to the bathroom.
They must have been getting antsy after abstaining for a while and went at it again in the bath, which
was why it took another two hours for them to finish up.
Stan returned with dinner, and Irene started to feed Isaac.
"I can do it myself..." he said.
Irene refused and insisted on feeding him. “I'll help you."
Martin was found tortured to a gruesome death, with parts of his body missing.
They did not even arrange a funeral for him-Lulu and the other officers of the precinct had him buried in
secret.
Lulu sent Jean away exactly because she was worried that Jean would be unsafe with her. Now that
Martin and her baby were gone, she decided to return to the force.
She wanted to avenge Martin, just as she blamed herself for his death.
If they did not argue, Martin would not have returned to work sooner or worked undercover-the reason
for the latter being because she had been constantly cold-shouldering him.
His cover was blown, and it led to his horrific death.
She felt very miserable, especially at the thought that she did not have a child for him despite their
marriage.That would not be the case if he married another woman, but in marrying her, he died without leaving
anything.
She believed that she owed him, but the force disagreed with her proposal.
"You're a woman who has not been trained, and you'll be exposed quickly. Captain York is gone now.
You're his wife, we-'
"I'll do it my way even without your approval." Lulu was determined.
Hence, after discussing and deliberating on the matter, they agreed to her request to go undercover.
However, Lulu already had every intention to bring down the enemy with her —she did not fear death,
only a tormenting life.
Naturally, she had to be trained extensively for the operation as ordered by the higher-ups.
An assessment followed after the two-week training.
Before she went undercover, she texted Irene:
[I have neither regrets nor fear. The only attachment I have is Jean, so please take good care of her.]
Irene replied: [I will. Don't worry.]
[I'm relieved since you see that. See you around.]
Irene stared blankly at Lulu's text, a foreboding feeling crossing her mind then.
She wanted to reply to Lulu's text and ask how she was doing when the door opened.
