Daughter of a Gun ➟ Reece Bibby ✔

chapter fifty one

Freya's POV

"How's everyone handling the tasks?" I asked as I was resting my head on Reece's chest.
"They're all doing fine but I'm kind of worried about Blake." he told me.
"Why so?" I asked.
"Usually, no matter what task he had, he's the one that reports the progress but this time, Mike reported it and it was like there was something he didn't want to tell me about what they found out." he said playing with my fingers.
"I should talk to him, maybe he'll tell me something." I said trying to reassure him. There was surely something wrong with Blake but I didn't want Reece to worry. "Anyway I feel kind of bad that we're here, cuddling, while others are out there working hard and risking their lives. I'm not used to this, Reece." I said standing up and looking him straight in the eye.
"This is what a leader's life is like. You have to get used to it." he said trying to make me lean back.
"Or we can try and help our people. It's in the laws that we have to work together on everything no matter how high up we are. I don't care if you don't want to help but I'll go out there and try my best to be there for our people." I said turning around and facing him with my back.
"I'll join you. But we have to plan out our wedding first." he whispered in my ear as he hugged me from behind.
"Screw that wedding! We have more important things to do. It can wait!" I told him visibly pissed.
"I'm sorry if I pissed you off." he said try to get me to face him.
"It's okay. Your best trait is pissing me off so I'm used to it." I said grabbing his face and giving him a small kiss. "We should get some sleep. We're joining the people in the morning." I said cuddling by his side.
I didn't even have time to fall asleep that I got a text. I checked my phone and it was from Blake. "I fucked up again, lil sis. This time jokes aside, it's bad." said the text. I knew that Blake was in trouble ever since Reece told me about the tasks. "I'll meet you first thing in the morning." I replied and put my phone down shaking. What possible shit could've he done again?
