Brotherly affections

I was too nervous to face him. Samuel Bishop King, aka my brother, who I know would be pissed off right now. So would be Myra and Damien and not to forget Lucian will be there too.

And I really don't want to face him after what he said. How can I look him into the eyes knowing that he actually loves me?

I walked inside the King's hotels and company and took the elevator for the top floor where the cavalry must be waiting for my arrival.

I dare not to think that what might going to happen with me in there. I don't want to see Samuel accusing me off something, I cannot see disappointment in his eyes.

I walked inside the cabin and saw familiar faces none of them which are happy with me. "Welcome Back Mrs. Olyphant" Myra said and I cringed at her voice. She was disappointed, I know I am disappointed in myself.

I looked at my brother, he said nothing. My heart broke more, but again as always it was my fault. Lucian looked at my attire and his eyes then landed on my finger on my ring and he walked out of the vicinity.

"Lucian" I called out but he didn't turned around. Damien shook his head and asked "why Rosa?" I looked down ashamed. I am ashamed. Why did I married him? Because of his money again. I sold myself to him again.

"you know Lucian had loved you? Why didn't you chose him? Why him? Why Ezra?" Myra asked. How could I say why?

"Because she wanted to save me. She sacrificed herself to save me and my business empire." I looked at Sam shocked. How does he knows?

"No one boards a sinking ship harmana, but Ezra did. And I knew why when I saw the news. Help came to me, my restaurants are saved my business empire was back where it should be because he mended it with his expertise and money. And my restaurant that had burnt already started restoration work. I knew something was up. But I never realized that something was my sister selling herself to that bastard. I am going to kill Ezra Olyphant" Sam said through gritted teeth.

"Sam..." I called and he caught me and hugged me hard. "I am so sorry Rosa, I am so, so sorry, I was not here for you. I failed you again. I failed you as a brother and that bastard took advantage of this situation. He took your happiness away from you, He took your future, your life away from you"

I hugged him back as he cried his heart out. "Sam it's alright. I am not complaining about any of it. I am alright. And I will find my happiness soon. I know I would." I cupped his face and looked into his brown eyes.

"Don't cry Sam, Don't think this as a sacrifice, think it as a phase, bad things happens but it is us who need to find the good things to hold on to when the world is against us."

Myra hugged me and so did Damien. "Oh Rosa, how could I ever repay you for this?" Sam asked. "You don't have to, Sam you are my brother, my family and I would do anything to keep you happy, keep you safe and if you really want to repay me I would like you to go on a blind date set by me. And you cannot say no" I said looking at him.

"You need to settle down too." Myra encouraged him. "My Rosa is always right, see us" Damien Pointed to him and Myra.

"Ok, one date. It is all I can do for you. And try not to be hopeful, it can very well go wrong on many levels. Trust me it will"

I smiled at my brother "I will make sure it never will go wrong." I said. "Now Myra if you please tell me about my schedule." I said looking at my dear secretary.

"Yes mam," Damien kissed her "See you later baby" Damien left and Sam left afterwards. "we are so going to nail this one" I said looking at Myra. She nodded in conformation.

"So am I done for the day or I still have boring meetings to attend?" I asked Myra who was typing rapidly in her laptop. "My..." I said to her. She looked up. "Huh?" She questioned. "I said did I have anymore to go?" I asked.

"No... you are free for today but tomorrow you have a breakfast meeting with Hamilton's." Nope not him. "Anyway you could reschedule it?" I asked. "Nope darling I sadly cannot." "Then you are coming with me" I said and she made a face.

I took my things and walked out of my cabin. Time to check on my Husband. I hope he is resting because if he is not , I am going to kill him real for this time.

I have encountered no problems so far. But I doubt my life will be all roses and rainbow with him. I walked inside my so called home and halted for a moment. It looked like... wow...

"Ezra" I called. I looked at the place. It was covered in white roses and candles burned at multiple places. Ezra came out and smiled at me. He walked towards me and stopped in front of me.

"Welcome home Wife." He kissed my forehead. And he pulled me into hug. I was surprised it is one understatement. I was astonished. "Why all this?" I asked.

"I figured I ruined your Christmas so we celebrate one today." I wanted to shout and stay mad at him but I simply could not. Not today.

"You should be resting you know?" I glared at him. "All day I was in bed I promise. I even took all the medicines and I didn't touch a drop of alcohol. I am so sorry Princess. I am so sorry. I promise you I will become a better person for you. I promise to become what you like me to be"

I heard the soft music playing on speakers. Justfor today then, "Come on let's dance" He took my hand and twirled me around theroom.
