The Gang Leader

Seventeen

Juliet.

"Princess wake up"

I hear a voice in my head. I groaned. "One more minute" I mumbled. I heard the familiar voice chuckle.

"Hey princess wake up" the voice said again then I feel his soft lips on my cheeks.

I open my eyes and found myself on the bed while Alex sat beside me with full clothes and look ready.

"Alex " I groaned.

"Finally you're awake. I wanna talk" he said calm. I groaned again "I am still sleepy. Alex. Can we talk later ?" I asked hoping he would say yes.

"No, baby I have to go now" Alex said. "Wait where ?" I asked suddenly not feeling sleepy again. "Brazil" he said scratching the back of his neck. I frowned.

"When ?" I asked bit my lower lip. "Now baby. I have something to do in Brazil" he said looking right into my eyes. "May I come ?" The question strolling from my mouth. He look surprised.

"Sorry you can't come baby. Its too dangerous" he said then kissed my forehead.

I pulled away. "If its dangerous you can't go. You might get hurt" I said reasonly. He shooked his head. "I didn't know you care about me that much" he said teasingly. I rolled my eyes.

"How many days ?" I asked knowing Brazil is far away. "Three days minimum. Don't worry I'll be back soon baby" he said again. I nodded.

"Give me something" he said. I frowned. "What ?"

"This" he said then crashed his lips on me. First I didn't kiss back cause I am shocked but then I am kissing him back greedily.

We pulled away.

"Caden and Ken will be here to protect you. I need Kyle with me" Alex said.

"What ? Why ? I need Kyle too" I said. He raised an eyebrow.

"He is hmm like a brother to me you know" I said don't want to get Kyle in trouble. Ryan and Jayden are enough.

"Alright then baby. Sleep again. Here my credit card if you want to buy something and buy anything you want but always take Ken or Caden with you wherever you go" he said handed me a golden credit card.

"Really ? Oh my god thank you Alex" I said. He nod and kissed my forehead once again then left.

Three days without Alex ?
I must be happy though. I shrugged.
When I decide I will try to be good wife for him , he walking away.

I decide I want to meet Jason and Gemma so I visit their house. I know Jason will be home in sunday. Caden and Ken keep following me everywhere since Alex left.

When I knocked the door. Gemma opened the door and she look different. She look pale and unhealthy.

"Gemma" I said. She smiled weakly then motioned me to come. I get inside. This house still the same. Their maid Ella welcome me. I only smiled.

I left Caden and Ken in the living room where Ella reserved them with food and drink.

Me and Gemma sat down on the couch next to swimming pool.

"He never come home" Gemma said. I frowned.

"Jason ?" I asked. She nodded. "I don't know what happen" she said sadly. "Are you okay Gemma?" I asked.

She shakes her head no. "I missed him so much Juliet. I can't live like this I even think about suicide" she said. I gasped.

Gemma is always known with her high personality. She can be friends with anyone and she likes to be center of attention. She is always happy.

I hugged her so tight. "Don't do that. Its my fault" I said.

"Its my fault." She said. I pulled away. "Me and Alex are okay now. We are married and live happy. Stop blaming yourself" I said.

"Are you serious ?" She asked disbelief. I nodded. "Alex might be bipolar but he called me princess and treat me like one" I said proudly.

"That's good. I am happy for you" she said weakly. "You look pale. Are you okay ?" I asked.

She look away.

"Gemma talk to me" i said. "I am pregnant, Juliet" she said.

I gasped. "Is Jason know ?" I asked. "He never let me explain" she said. How could Jason do this to Gemma ? Thought they always happy family.

"Don't tell him Juliet. I am fine. When I was about to suicide I found out that I am pregnant that's why I am strong. A little piece of him growing inside of me" She said smiled more to herself. I sighed.

"My brother is stupid. But he loves you. I know that" I smiled.

****

When I arrived at home I noticed that there is a range rover in front of the mansion.
I get inside and came face to face with Alex's mother. She looking at me with disgust. I know she never like me since the wedding.

"Hello " I smiled at her. She nodded. "Can we talk ?" She asked. I nodded. Caden and Ken left us.

I sat on the couch while she sat across of me. She wear beautiful red dress that fit her skin perfectly. Sometimes I am jealous at how beautiful she is.

"I don't like you" she said to the point. I frowned. "I am sorry but I didn't do anything" I said.

"You can make my son crazy with your behavior. I wanna say that my son deserve someone better than you" She said.

Never in million years I wanna cry so bad. Nobody ever say things like this in my face. Even my school freinds love me. I always meet love everywhere I go. Usual with people called me Princess but not when someone say they don't like me especially come from my mother in law.

"Mrs Kings I promise I will be better wife for your husband" I said sofly. She glared at me.

"No. I don't want you to be my daughter in law. You better divorce him" She said stood up.

"I can't do that Mrs Kings" I said confidently. "Oh why not ?" She asked mocking me.
"Because marriage is not a game
It's sacred. I will be better wife for Alex and I am sure of it" I said.

"Whatever. Now you know how I feel though. There is someone better for him anyway" she said then left me with my thoughts.

Alex is that true ?
Am I not good enough for you ?
I didn't realize till my tears falling down. Someone patted my shoulder when I looked up I see Ken.

He smiled weakly.
