Our Challenge

First Night.

Kade POV

Cain starts laughing, "Kade that was funny, but it is not the time for jokes. Tell me the real problem."

Jasmine laughs, "Cain, I thought you heard everything?"

Cain groans in annoyance, "Clearly I didn't hear everything, Jasmine. Now hush and let your man explain the situation."

Jasmine rolls her eyes and I let out a long sigh.

"Rosalie said that Black Dragon is secretly working with the President."

Cain stays silent for a full minute and sighs, "Yeah, don't talk anymore. We will be there soon. Make sure Zaiden doesn't go off anywhere. We're on our way to the jet now."

I shake my head, "You better call Zaiden because I'm not checking on him or telling him anything."

Cain groans, "Kade stop the childish shit! I don't give a fuck what happened between you and Zaiden. You two will fucking kumbaya before you leave that house to go to Niall's."

He hangs up after that and before I can put my phone down Cain calls me again.

"I'm watching you and Zaiden. I still have access to the cameras and audio. Stay your asses in the house."

He hangs up, and I toss my phone over my shoulder, landing it on the bed. I look at Jasmine, and she shrugs her shoulders. I pull her onto my lap, and she straddles me.

"My first night being engaged to you and this is how it's going. I thought we were going to celebrate with everybody and then celebrate in bed."

I hum in response and bring her face closer to mine, "We can still celebrate."

I squeeze her butt and she moans. She takes her shirt off and I trace my fingertips on her thighs.

Just as I am taking my shirt off there is a knock on the door.

I wrap my arms around Jasmine's waist and turn us over on the bed. She lets out a squeal and I put my finger over my lips, "They might not think we're in here."

She rolls her eyes and we hear another knock, "Who is it?"

I drop my head in defeat and Jasmine kisses me on the lips.

"Nancy."

Jasmine wiggles from under me and puts her shirt on. She walks to the door and opens it.

Nancy peeks in and looks at me, "Am I interrupting?"

I nod my head, "Yes."
Jasmine shakes her head, "No."

Jasmine glares at me as Nancy puts her head down. I throw my hands up in surrender and I stand up, "I was just joking Nancy. What's wrong?"

Nancy steps in and walks past Jasmine to sit on the bed, "I've checked on Zaiden, but he doesn't want to see me. He only wants Lyric around."

Jasmine rubs her back, "Did you come here to check on Kade?"

Nancy nods her head, "I told Titus that you and Zaiden were about to shoot each other and I asked him what I should do."

I raise my eyebrow, "My dad? What did he say?"

She looks at me with a defeated look, "He said that you two can figure it out yourselves. I don't know what I should do."

I nudge Nancy with my shoulder, "You should go to your room and rest. Don't worry about me and Zaiden. We're fine."

"Have you checked on Rosalie?"

She shakes her head, "No, I figured you and Zaiden don't want anybody in there."

"What about Beckham?" I ask as I motion for Jasmine to come to me.

She walks up to me and I wrap my arms around her waist and rest my face in her chest.

"He's okay. But he's scared that Zaiden might shoot him again."

I keep my head resting on Jasmine's chest and look at Nancy, "We can't promise him that Zaiden won't shoot him. But Zaiden won't hurt you, so maybe being close to Beckham for the next few days would keep Beckham at ease."

She nods her head and looks at me with a glint in her eye, "Kade, what would have happened if Zaiden had killed Rosalie?"

"I would have shot Zaiden. Not kill him, but shot him. Why?" Curiosity lacing in my voice.

She looks at Jasmine and then back at me, "Lyric is not the only one who would do anything for Zaiden. Zaiden is all I have and I will hurt anyone who takes him away from me. Zaiden cares for Lyric so I care for her. No matter who you decide to hurt you will be going against two."

She stands up and walks out leaving me fighting a smile, "No matter how you look at it they may have the strongest bonds amongst each other than any of us."

Jasmine forces me to look at her, "What the hell was that?! I was too stunned to even say anything. Nancy's whole demeanor changed it shocked me."

She squeezes my nose, "Are you smiling? Are you tempted to do something?"

I let out a chuckle and take her hand in mine, "Is it not interesting how they work?"

She looks at me as if I'm crazy, "I'm not telling my parents, but I'm telling Cain what just happened."

I shrug my shoulders and kiss her hand, "Cain would think the same thing. Isn't it crazy that not only does Zaiden have a crazy woman who would do anything for him because of a spell? He has someone else who would do anything because of an obsession. Zaiden saving Nancy from her house of horrors caused Nancy to do any and everything for the one who saved her. She may even be obsessed with Lyric in some sort of way. We're going to have the doctors look at Nancy."

Jasmine puts her face in her hands, "This is my first night being engaged to Kade Knight."

She grabs my face and places her lips on mine. Without hesitation, I kiss her back and she moans as I bite her lip.

I force her to straddle me and she pulls away. I groan in frustration and I wrap my hand around her neck and bring her inches away from me.

She places her forehead against mine, "I love seeing you frustrated."

"Are you regretting saying yes?" I question.

She quickly shakes her head, "Why would I regret it? I'm going to be Mrs.Knight, I'm not going anywhere and you're not either. I've been wanting you since high school."

I show her a smile, "I wish we could go off somewhere but right now that would not be the best thing to do."

I run my fingers through her hair and rub her ear, "I love you, Jasmine."
