(COMPLETE) The Bastard and The King

Chapter 7

So it was Sunday night and currently I was getting ready to go to dinner at dad’s. He called early this morning to let Alexander know that he had made a decision and that I should bring him with to the dinner.

I was still sore after sleeping the whole of Sunday. I wanted to cancel on the dinner but dad wasn’t having any of that because the decision included me as well.
I told him that I wasn’t going to dress up for the occation and just put the phone down.

I heard doorbell and went downstairs. When I saw him something in my chest felt warm and glad to see him.

He wasn’t dressed up either and I think he was feeling the same way I was. But this man could walk around in a plastic bag and he would still be sexy as hell.
When he saw me he smiled. “Unicorns?” he asked and I looked down at my tights. “Yeah I’m not in the mood for this”

“If this wasn’t half of my money I would have asked for his answer over the phone” he snaked his arm around my waist and led me to the car.
Dad made sure that Cole wasn’t there and neither was Ashlee. Apparently I broke her nose and she wasn’t coming out of her room untill it was healed. Such a drama queen.

Dad agreed to the proposition but he wanted me to have a bigger persentage so that when shitt hits the fan that he wouldn’t be sitting with the same amount of right to the club. As for the mafia business I tuned myself out. Whatever went on down there wasn’t my slice of pie.
Somewhere during their conversation on who gets what and who does what I fell asleep. I felt how Alexander picked me up and put me in the car. We drove home and he carried me inside the house and put me to bed.
While he was covering me with the blanket I grabbed his arm “Please stay” I say to him in desperation to feel his arms around me again. I needed to be home for a little while longer before I go back to being alone.

He took my face in his hand and kissed my forehead. “Can I take a shower?” he whispered. I nodded my head. I could hear him going to the bathroom and starting the shower. I also heard when he was done and came outside.
He got into the bed next to me and covered himself with the same blanket. I turned on my back and put my arm on his chest.

“Please hold me like you did the other night” I said and opened my eyes. I felt so vulnerable when he was with me. Like I could trust him with my enitre heart.
He turned on his side and wiped under my eye with his thumb. A tear. One tear that escaped.
“I don’t want to feel alone anymore” I said and a few more tears rolled down my cheek.
He grabbed my waist and pulled me flush against him. He held me tight and whispered in my ear. “I will always be here. Now sleep baby. I won’t go anywhere”

I didn’t say or do anything else but only fell asleep. I knew we would have to talk about this and he would say that it won’t work but for now I was safe and I wasn’t alone.
The next day when I woke up he wasn’t there. I figured that he had to take care of business before he comes to the club. We didn’t discuss when and how things are going to happen.
I got into the shower and quickly got ready for work. I was going to start the day at the club as normal and work from there when I see Alexander again.
