"Are you crazy, Noah? Have you forgotten about the two kinds sleeping in the next room?" I say looking at him like he has lost his mind.
"No, I haven't forgotten, you can take them along, or I can..."
"No, I won't ask Eli to babysit again, why should I go, and he doesn't" I say cutting him off.
"Well, if you give me a chance, I wasn't going to say Eli. I know the right person, and the kids will love her. Plus, she needs the money for college, you wouldn't deny a trying college student an honest wage, now, would you?" he says, and I roll my eyes at him.
"Don't do that, Noah."
"Do what? Its full time you meet them" he says
"I don't know Noah, what if they don't like me for you, I've never met anyone's parents before" I say looking at him with knitted brows.
"Right, so you are not a good judge of who would like you. I know my parents and they will love you, like I do. Look at me" he says, I do and then he asks, "trust me?"
"Yes, I do" I say as I nod my head, and that I know more than anything was without a doubt.
"Good, I know a stylist, who will come and help you with a dress to wear, your hair and makeup if you would like" he says. "When do you move to Walnut Creek?"
"Thursday the furniture will arrive on schedule so we will drive up early Thursday morning just to get things straighten out before they arrive" I respond.
"Ok I have meetings all day Thursday, I have to meet with my tech guys and engineers. Plus, I have to meet with the Russians to smooth out a few issues that I am currently facing with by brainchild" he says.
"What is the problem with your brainchild" I ask, Noah
"We're in the prototype stages, but there are a few hiccups that need straightening out. We have a long way to go before we can actually install an engine in a real plane but so far test results are proportional to scale as traditional engines, we just need to tighten up a few areas."
His zeal when he talks about his work is so sexy to watch, it's like his dick gets hard or something and I love listening to him talk about it.
"Wow, I hope it works out, I know how passionate you are about this" I say to him.
"I'm passionate about you, baby" he says looking at me, and round two!
Noah left the apartment before the kids woke up, we agreed that before we take things further, together we would talk to the kids about our relationship. He was adamant that it be done soon since he was going to be a permanent fixture in our lives. Although I think my extremely observant little sister, Abby has picked up on that already.
The rest of the week goes by rather smoothly, and without incidents. Its 8AM Thursday morning and we are now packing the last of our stuff in my car so we can start our trip home. After loading the last bag in the trunk of the car, I notice a black SUV pull up in the parking space beside us.
Panic raises its ugly head when the car stops, and no one comes out. Tom was already buckled up in the backseat, while Abby and I were standing by the trunk of the car. "Get in the car now Abbs, that vehicle looks suspicious" I whisper.
She gets in and I follow suit, I hastily put the keys in the ignition and the car engine roars. I start to back up when one of the men exit the car, I recognize him as Noah's security, and I breathe a sigh of relief. He walks toward the car, and I pull the window down as he approaches my door.
"Good morning Ms. Cambridge, I am Andrew, and my partner Jay is in the car. Mr. Draccon instructed us to escort you home" he says.
"Excuse me? Noah can do no such thing. I know where I am going, and I don't need you guys to waste your time escorting me" I say.
Andrew with an unreadable expression on his face says, "I'm afraid we have no choice in the matter, ma'am".
"Let me call him. then" I say
"Ma'am Mr. Draccon said he would be in meetings all day I doubt you will get him on the phone" Andrew says.
"We'll see about that" I say.
Not wanting to disturb his meeting I send him a quick text "Are you out of your fucking mind?"
A minute later my phone rings and Noah's voice comes over the speaker "Taylor, what's the problem, mmm, what have I paid for now".
"Don't be a cutie pie, why did you send two guards to take me to Walnut Creek? Literally 40 minutes away? Won't these men time be better spent doing something constructive Noah? I don't want to be escorted" I say impatiently.
"You promised me that you wouldn't have a problem with the guards I assigned, Taylor. You can refuse the guards if you want but then you would have to move in with me. You forfeit the living on your own thing if you do not want the guards. It's one or the other, baby, you gave me your word. Now I need to get back to this meeting, so when I see you later you can tell me what you decide" he says, and I hear the satisfaction in his voice.
I roll my eyes, even though he can't see me, I sighed deeply and say "Jeezas, Noah, I'll keep the guards. You need to stop managing, me. I haven't much experience, but I know this isn't supposed to be like this. There should be compromise not dictating".
"Baby, we'll talk when I get home" he says then hangs up the phone.
'When he comes home?' I think to myself he must be talking about his mansion on the hill. Certainly not my modest three-bedroom house. His maid's quarters would probably make the house look like a hot mess.
We drive home with the two guards trailing behind us, 'welcome to the life of being the mate of an Alpha Wolf.' I say to myself then sigh. Something tells me that even if I agreed to live with him and I would still have these guards tailing me.
"Is everything ok Taylor" Abby asks.
"Yes, Abbs no need to worry, all is well. We're heading home baby, whoo-hoo!" I say then turn the radio on and put it on blast 'Beyonce and Jay Z's Bonnie & Clyde come over the speaker.
