Chapter 62 Reyna Cruz: I had dozed off during a call with my son, and honestly speaking I was glad I spoke to him. I had been worrying sick ever since Hunter took him. So those few hours of FaceTime helped me feel much better. However, there were a few things that my son said that rubbed me the wrong way. He claimed Tara was trying hard to get involved between him and Hunter, and that made Turner very uncomfortable. I woke up to my son’s messages. After rubbing my eyes, as I read through the messages of him basically telling me how much he misses me, I checked the time and almost gasped. “I slept through the entire morning?” I yelped, rushing out of bed and almost tripping. It was afternoon, and I don’t even know how I slept through all the alarms. As I took a shower and wore blue jeans with a white high-neck sweater, I made my way downstairs to check on Sam. I felt bad now that I recalled how his plans were ruined last night. After going downstairs, I acknowledged that Sam wasn’t even in the house anymore. The kitchen seemed to have been used, so I made my way there and found food on the counter and a note on the refrigerator door. “I waited for you to wake up, but I guess you slept late. No worries. I made some pancakes and hashbrowns; make sure you eat your food. I am headed to the office to take care of the projects since Hunter is taking a day off.” I read his note and instantly felt bad. He didn’t deserve to be flaked out. However, it only happened once. It wasn’t like I was going to do it every night. Sighing. I sat down in the living room feeling completely useless yet again after years of doing so well for myself. I then tackled some assignments on my laptop, and after what seemed like hours had passed, I received a call from Sam. “Hey,” my guilty tone must have been too recognizable because he took a pause before responding to “Don’t sound too low. Turner will come back soon,” he responded in a much concerning tone. Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
“I am not only upset about him,” I mumbled, rolling the strands of hair around my fingers nervously. “Then what is bothering you? Are you fine?” It felt nice to have someone care for y you so much. “I am feeling bad that I couldn’t even wake up early to see you,” pouted even when I knew he couldn’t see me through the phone. “Ah! You know what? You saying that is enough. Honestly, I wasn’t expecting anything either. I know under what circumstances you have decided to accept me, so I am not rushing you over for anything. Just you being with me is enough,” his words and sweet tone really helped me to smile widely. “But I am calling you for something else. I was thinking about taking you out this evening. How about that?” he suggested, and without any delay, I responded to him. “I will be ready” Even though a part of me still felt weirdly guilty over the fact that Hunter and my relationship didn’t work, after how Hunter tormented me by taking my son back to the mansion where that evil woman lived, I was ready to move on entirely. “Then I will pick you up around 6,” he said, and after talking for a while, we hung up. Since I had nothing else to do, I decided to get ready for the day, wearing a beautiful yet simple black dress. I also did my makeup well and curled my hair a little. 1/2 13:12 Wed, May 15 O Chapter 62. 70% As the clock struck 6, Sam was home just like he had promised. “So, you don’t want to go out with me?” the first thing he said when I opened the door made me frown at him. “Why would you say that?” I questioned. “You are dressed like you expect me to take you out and not take you to the bedroom?” he gave me a cheeky smile, making me roll my eyes at him before he came closer and kissed my check.
“I will go take a shower quickly and then meet you here,” he whispered, passing down another kiss to my neck before parting his way with me. I was excited to go out on my first date after years. It was not the same exact type of excitement like I had in the past when I would go out on dates with Hunter, though. Back then, I didn’t think we would ever fall apart. So those dates were only filled with happy moments and big hopes. However, now every happiness left a bit of fright in my heart, and I wondered, “what if this too ends? Well, before I could delve deep into any more stress, I was met with Sam walking downstairs and smiling at me in a gray shirt and black pants. “Let’s go, Mrs. Samuel,” he joked, wrapping his arm around my waist and taking me to his car. With him being a gentleman, I didn’t have to even care about anything. He opened the door for me, and together we sat off to our destination. “We opened a new restaurant here. Most of it is outdoor, right on the beach,” he smiled happily, obviously proud of his own success. I was proud of him too. He had really come far. “I can’t wait to see it,” I clumped my hands in my lap, and sadness took over me briefly as I recalled my son. Since Samuel had been doing so much for me, I decided to put on a smile and not ruin his might. After taking back the smile on my lips, I watched him park his car and then help me out. He was right. It was a very cute setting and romantic too. The tables were set on the beach with fairy lights and little dances being performed. He held my hand and walked me to our table. The weirdest part was that the moment we began to catch eyes, everybody got up to bow down to us in respect. It reminded me of something from my memory, but I instantly shut down the thoughts and forced a smile onto my lips for Sam. We had only sat down when I watched the people get out of their chairs once again, and this time when they bowed to the next customer, my heart sank in my chest. I knew who must have come for them to bow down to, Alpha King Hunter Sparrow. 曲 COMMENT
