I'll find you

Chapter 7

"That was delicious." I patted my belly and he rolled his eyes in amusement.

"Can I ask you a personal question?" He asked nervously.

"You just returned to me a part of me with that box you stoled from my father. I think you can ask me whatever you want." He chuckled at my answer. A deep chuckled that had my body shivering with delight.

"Back there you told me Xavier was the love of your life is that true?"

"He wasn't. He is the love of my life. I actually went back to his hometown a few years back but he had moved and no one knew where so I haven't seen him." I confessed.

"You went back for him?" He ask bewildered.

"Of course I did." He nodded. "Was that the question you wanted to ask me?"

"No, that was just me building up to the question. I know this is private and non of my business but.." he took a deep breath. "howlonghasitbeensinceyouwereintimatewithaman?" He said to quickly for me to understand.

"Can you repeat that just a bit slower?"

"How long has it been since you were intimate with a man?" My mouth drop open. I was not expecting that.

"Why do you want to know?" I asked him slowly.

"I was just curious since you said he is the love of your life and all." he said still nervous.

"Not that is any of your business but since I feel like I owned you I'll tell you. As much as you or anyone would like to believe I'm lying... I've only been with one man and that is Xavier,my son's father." I saw X smile and sighed in relief. Why? No idea.

"That's amazing." he finally spoke.

"So, you believe me?"

"Of course I do. You don't have any reason to lied to me."

"That's true. Now when can I get my things?" I need to call Edmund.

"I'll give them to you if you promise not to mention any of this to anyone." I looked at him confused.

"Oh!!! Right, you kidnapping me?" He nodded. "I won't tell a soul." I promised.

"Alright then. Here." he took my phone out of his pocket and gave it to me. I mumbled a thank you. He is not a good kidnapper but then again it's not like I'm trying to escape or anything.

I dialed Edmund right away knowing well that he will be worried and in front of X.

"Where the hell have you been? I hope you have a good explanation." I pulled the phone away from my ear as he yelled question after question.

"I'm sorry. My phone died and I was tanning like I'm supposed to be doing in my vacation." I told him.

"Are you sure you are okay?" He asked more calm now.

"I'm more than okay, I'm fantastic. I've been drinking a bit but I'll be fine." I added to make it more believable.

"Fine but call me at least ones a day." he demanded.

"I will, dad." I mocked and X send me a surprised look. "Got to go now and yes I'll call you tomorrow."

"You better, have fun." and I ended the call. "That was my partner, Edmund. He acts like my dad sometimes." I explained sheepishly.

"You guys close?"

"Yeah, I think the reason we get along so great is because he is a few years older than me plus he is not constantly trying to get in my pants like the past ones." I laughed a little remembering the others. Funny guys they were. X looked mad for some reason.

"Are you alright?" I asked concerned.

"Yeah, I just need to get some rest." he stood up from his chair. "I'll show you back to your room." he extended a hand out for me and I took it. Tangling my arm with his and our hands still holding each other we walked back into the house down the hallway until he stopped in front of a door.

"If you ever need me my room is down the hall. Four doors down to the left to be exact." I nodded smiling up at him. He bent down and kissed my forehead. "good night sweetheart." he said in a soft voice that melted my insides.

"Good night." I said breathlessly. He turned around and disappear into the growing darkness. It's only now that I notice how fast the day has gone by. Maybe because I slept most of it. Or maybe because of the great company, a little voice in my head added.
