Chapter 15

"Ladies any sign of trouble you know what to do," Caspian said as he pulled up to the restaurant.
"Yes, yes Cas. We know," Mel said wearing a mischievous smile.
"Oh Rebecca before I forget I must warn you I might, note my emphasis on might, just be a little too blunt with dear old Raquel," Mel said chuckling as she saw dread clearly written all over the others features.
"I think we should abort this mission," Lia said looking worried.
"Nonsense it's a mother daughter outing and I can't wait to have some fun with my daughters," Rebecca smiled. "Time to show that old hag who is boss, she had the audacity to say my dress was hideous when obviously she was the one wearing something a pig threw up," Rebecca said with a disgusted frown as the others remembered the dress Sofia wore choosing not to comment their expressions saying it all.

Caspian's stepped out of the limo helping each of the ladies out bidding them farewell.
"Reservation under Shields," Rebecca said to the maître d'.
"Please follow me ma'am," he said with a large smile.
Following him they headed to a private room were several waiters stood. Pulling their chairs out at the same time the ladies sat impressed by the service thus far.
Ordering their drinks they waited for their late arrivals to join them.

Sofia was the first to join them as the ladies laughed at what Meg had been saying.
"Forgive our tardiness. Traffic is the reason of our late arrival," Sofia said pulling out a chair as her daughter did the same a plastic smile on her face.
Sofia was sitting beside Rebecca as Raquel was between her mother and Mel. Talia took a nervous gulp of water seeing the sitting arrangement before them.
"Shall we order," Rebecca said as the head waiter walked towards them with several waiters following suite each waiter took an order before disappearing.
"Hmm I can see Lincoln's money is being put to some good use. The service here is just superb," Raquel mumbled sipping her water.
"Well Linc does like spoiling the woman he loves," Mel said.
"Yes I know, I was once one of his woman," Raquel smirked as Mel only smiled at her.

Their food arrived a few minutes later as they started to enjoy their meal.
"So what are you thinking of doing now that you are now well? You are well now, right? Linc told me about what happened back then, that must have been truly awful," Mel said wearing a concerned expression noticing Raquel's hand clenching the knife.
"I'm still deciding. There are a few things I need to first take care of you see," she said turning away from Mel looking at the entrance.
Turning around Mel saw Linc standing by the door wearing a smile that only widened more when he spotted her. He was wearing jeans that hugged him perfectly showing off his powerful legs, a denim shirt rolled up to his elbows as he held his shades in his hand looking at his wife appreciatively. Walking towards the table the conversation died down as he went and stood behind Mel greeting everyone.

"Excuse me ladies," Mel said as Linc pulled out her chair helping her up. Moving a bit further away from the table Linc pecked her lips as she asked him what he was up to smacking his hand away as it glided down the forbidden territory.
"I missed you," he said making her roll her eyes.
"Really. That's the reason you came to disturb us," she sighed with a fake look of annoyance before a smile graced her face.
"Well that and the office keys, I forgot mine at home and since you were already close I thought to myself, why don't I go ask my smart, beautiful and sexy wife for her keys."
"Well if you put it that way who am I to refuse such since I am all those things you just said and more," she murmured before leaving him to grab the keys as he chuckled at her statement.
Handing over the keys she expected him to leave but he remained rooted to the same spot turning to the other ladies.

"The bill has already been taken care of so order all you want and have fun ladies," he said winning over smiles of thanks.
"And you," he said turning to Mel pulling her into his arms as he shielded her from the rest of the group. "Relax and have fun for me," he said cupping her neck not waiting for a response he gave her a knee shaking kiss that had her clinging onto him for support as Raquel turned away doing exactly what they wanted because they knew she was watching them whilst the other ladies continued with their discussion. Pulling her close she felt him harden as he continued to ravish her lips like it was their last kiss.
"I will," she said answering his request.
"Good girl. Don't check me out as I leave," he whispered smacking her lips with his before walking out with a wide grin as she chuckled doing exactly what he had told her not to do.
