chapter 26
Cindy pov
It's been only a few days since I saw my daughter. It's been driving me crazy wondering if she is okay, Roger had told me I could trust Xander. But with the rumors I have heard about him, trust is far from my mind. I knew I had to call her. I just needed to hear her voice. So I dialed her cell. The third ring she picked up. I was so thankful to hear her voice.
“Hi mom! Is everything okay?” Here, I am so worried about her. She worries about me. I had a small smile on my face when I spoke to her.
“Yes honey. Everything is just fine. I know it's only been two days, but I just needed to hear your voice, that's all. I need to make sure that you're okay, honey.” I could hear chuckles over the phone.
“Mom, of course I'm okay. We have just got done with a meeting. So we're about to go eat. I'll see you in a month, okay? But it doesn't mean not to call. I love you.”
“I love you, sweetheart. I'll call again in a few days.” we hung the phone up. I sat it on the desk. I was glad I could hear her voice. But I still felt uneasy. LeeAnn is our only child. We tried having more, but it never took. It wasn't meant for us. To have another pup. I sat back drinking my wine. Roger walked into the room, asking.
“So, is she okay like I said she would be? When I say you can trust Xander. It means you can trust him, honey. He's the king, and our daughter is now the queen. So just have some patience, we will go see her in a month, okay?” I knew he was right. Maybe I'm just overthinking it.
“How about we go to her restaurant tomorrow, we could see her then. I'll be okay after I make sure she's okay” he lifted an eyebrow at me. I knew what he was thinking.
“Fine Cindy. But if you made a scene in her work place. That is all on you. Do not, and I mean do not do that.” Sighing, I finally said
“Fine. But I still want to go and see her”
“Fine, but you better not make a scene. She's a grown woman, Cindy. I know she is our only child. But sometimes you just have to cut the apron strings.” We got up and went to eat dinner. Sometimes, I would just love to slap up upside the head.
LeeAnn pov.
I knew it's only been a few days since I seen my parents, I was missing them so much, When i got a call from my mother i thought something was wrong, but something tells me she was thinking the same thing, i don't think she trust Xander at all, with the rumors that people spread around about him, is nothing compare to what i see, I see a kind man that only wants his people to be safe, i see a man that wants everyone to be happy but also rules with an iron fist, for the last few days, he's been going with me to my jobs making sure that everything is okay, we go back in forth from the restaurant to the hotel, hes probably getting tired of driving me around, so tonight i was going to sit him down and tell him i could actually drive myself to work i mean with as many helpers we have in that hotel amazes me how much work they have gotten done, i means for goodness sake, the hotel is almost done, and its only been a few days since they started working on it, every mistake or anything broken, they make sure to fix it or replace it right away, the hotel will be done in a few weeks, and for my restaurant, when people here that i am the Kings mate they want to come see me and ask for favors,, no thats not going to happen, if you want something, come ask and we will talk about it, and we together will see what we can do about it, When we had finally gotten home i told Xander i would like to speak with him, i think he thought i had other ideas because once we got into our room, he held close, kissing me passionately, i mean like oh s**t fireworks were going off in my head when he kissed me like that, i felt so weak in the knees that i was glad that he was holding me up, When he pulled back, he closed the door,
“Sorry about that, people were watching so i kept the door open so they could see us kiss,” Damn, was that the only reason why he had kissed me like that, i was really disappointed, sighing i had to collect my thoughts, than i told him,
"Xander, I know you're getting tired of driving me around. Once upon a time, i drove myself around to and from work. I'm a big girl now, you can let me drive, you know.” He held up his fingers to his lips. thann whispered to me to unbutton a few of my buttons on my shirt, i looked at him like he had grown four heads or something, but i said alright fine, i unbuttoned three of my buttons on my shirt, then i ruffled my hair, he took off his shirt than opened the door,
‘Can i help you, laura? she was standing there about to knock but something tells me she was trying to hear what was going on in the bedroom, i let out a soft growl as i walked over there by Xander, i laid my right hand over his bare chest claiming what was mine,
“What do you want,sweetie pie? Me and the king were right in the middle of something. Can we help you with anything?” i knew she was pissed by the look in her eyes, Lola smirked inside my head, telling me that she dared me to lay a lip lock right in front of her, so that's what i did, standing between them my arms went around his neck i laid one h3ll of a liplock on him, and i could tell he liked it alot, not only liked it but he loved it because he started kissing me back just as much as i was kissing him, i gently pushed him back inside the room kicking the door shut in her face, i heard her growl as i was the one that stopped kissing him, than i heard her footsteps stomping away, I knew she was mad, i really didn't care, but something tells me that wont be the last time she would try to listen in or try to interrupt.
