The long-lost love (VegasPete)

Chapter 2 - Spoiled vacation (18+)

WARNING 18+ SCENES AHEAD

Vegas POV: 

"I loaded your luggage into the car, and Pol already put Venice into the back seat. We should go. Everyone is waiting," I hear the Arm guy say, and Pete pulls away from me instantly. I spare him an angry look and see him looking at us awkwardly. It has been 6 months since Pete left the main family and came to live with me as my spouse. They should have gotten used to us as a couple by now, but all of his bodyguards buddies are still awkward around us. Except for Porsche, but that bastard had no respect even before.

 "I call you when we get there. Call me after every meeting so I know you came back home safely," Pete says and I just nod. He puts one more kiss on my lips quickly and sits in the car between Khun Noo and Venice. The Arm guy goes to sit into the passenger seat and I watch as his buddy starts the car and slowly leaves the compound. 

I keep standing there until I can't see the car anymore and Nop comes to me. "We need to leave in 30 minutes if we want to come to the meeting on time. The traffic will be hell this early in the morning."

"Uhm," I reply, listening only with one ear, still looking after Pete. 

"Where is Macau?" I ask and turn around to walk back to the mansion. 
"He is staying with some of his uni friends over the next week. I already have a couple of men looking after him. Discretely ofcourse". Good. There is still a lot of tension after I took over when my father died, and things have been a little rough with the business. I need to keep extra security, especially for Macau and Pete. And Venice, but that little monster is always with Pete, so it makes things easier. 

"Do you want me to send some men after Khun Pete?" Nop ask. I consider it for a while and then reject it. "No. The main family's bodyguards are not stupid. They would have noticed if someone was following them". Pete would definitely notice. And he would have gotten angry with me. I don't like to admit it, but Pete took over as a leader in this house. Everyone submits to him - me, Macau, Venice, and even the bodyguards know better than to oppose him. On the other hand, he brought plenty of improvements into our lives. He certainly wasn't the head bodyguard in the main family for nothing. He knows his way around the issue of security and he knows his way around the issue of a family as well. He is raising Venice...we are raising Venice I suppose...very well, he helps Macau to train and Macau loves to have him around. And so do I. Making him angry by not trusting his skills would only harm this little harmony we now can finally call family.

 "The Petrov meeting is in two hours and later today you have a conference call with the Chinese clients. Tomorrow you have to go with Petrov to look at the goods and confirm the delivery. He insists on it. I already prepared the plan for security and Khun Pete approved of it. The meeting with your uncle is at 10 am the day after tomorrow. I managed to push all the other meetings to next week so you can leave for the beach in the afternoon," Nop interrupts my thoughts as we continue to walk in the hallway. I wish I could postpone the meeting with uncle Korn too and come to Pete sooner, but that old bastard would never allow it. And I don't want to seem eager to get to Pete in front of him either. I can see what he thinks about Kinn and Porsche. He views Porsche as Kinn's weakness, as something that's in way of his plans. I don't need him to see how much I care about Pete, he would have used it against me in the future. I know he already knows a lot, but I am not going to give him more ammunition. 

"Prepare three men to go with me to the beach," I order Nop and leave to get ready for the meeting.

Pete's POV

"Let's sing!" Thankhun says and grabs my hand while gesturing to Arm with the other one to turn on the radio. It has been only a couple of minutes since we left the second family compound and he is already having some crazy ideas on how to pass the time. This will be a long journey for me. Kinn with Poresch and Kim with Chey are in the care before us blissfully spared of Thankun's singing. "Khun Noo, Venice will wake up if we are loud," I say and look at Venice worried that he will be crying all the way to the beach, but he seems satisfied in his baby seat.
