N.B I updated twice last week so make sure you check those updates before this one.

GENESIS

Sunday evening rolled around fairly quickly, and thankfully the swelling on my cheek had started to subside leaving in its place a purplish bruise.

After the café, I had brought both the king and Armani back to my store and forced them to help me tinker around while I sketched a few designs.

A smile graced my face as I remembered how carefree the King was in my presence making jokes and barking in laughter.

I felt at home with him.

A knock at my door interrupted my reverie causing me to curse under my breath.

The person at the door was quite impatient as before I could make it off the bed there was another rapid knock.

I pulled the door open open with much force than what was necessary only for there to be a tired looking Michael.

Bruises littered his skin, but I could tell that he was getting some much needed work out by the way his muscles slightly bulged.

"Impressive" I commented with a smirk, pulling the door open so he could enter.

"King Amir finally allowed me to see you after I proved I could do one hundred push ups" he moaned throwing himself on my bed.

"You look worse for wear but it's a necessary step" I commented to which he rolled his eyes.

"I must admit, it's not THAT bad" he whined flipping on to his belly.

"But I do not want to talk about sparring, exercise or anything relating to that right now. I've been surrounded by testosterone all week"

This was good for Michael, he could get his ass kicked by a school girl and nothing about that is cute.

Walking over to my closet I started looking at a few options for the dinner this evening.

"What are you wearing tonight?" I asked knowing that his outfit was in the duffle that he brought.

No one gave me the impression that this is something fancy so I don't want to be too dressed up and at the same time this would be my first official appearance before the entire pack.

I pulled out a pair of leather brown pants and a beige sweater top to match. This will do it.

Michael held up his hands outfit for me to assess and I nodded my head in approval. Simple yet fashionable.

I started removing my top to change since I had already showered when Michael made a yelp in surprise.

"What?" I asked.

"We can't do that anymore Love. The King will have my head" he hissed, making his way to the bathroom to give me a bit of privacy.

I changed into the outfit, assessing myself before calling to Michael that it is safe for him to come out.

"You look hot" he complimented.

"Thank you" I said giving him a 360 view. I finished up by adding gold jewelry and a purse to match.

I walked out the door following closely behind Michael. Amir's home was empty as usual, save for the few royal guard that stood posted at each corner.

I felt their eyes on us as we walked pass before noticing that they all fell in to step behind us.

"What is this?" Michael whispered despite the fact that they would still be able to hear him.

I paused in step and heard as all the men stopped in unison.

"Yes?" I spun around in question.

They all stood rigid, staring a head not at all phased my question.

I scanned the crowd for a familiar face before landing on Jax. The guard that had brought me to the King my first day in the house.

"You, Jax" I pointed at him. "Come here"

I have no idea what overcame me and convinced me I had the authority to command the Royal guard but I did.

Following my command, he moved to the front of the crowd and gave me a lazy grin.

"What's all this?" I asked gesturing to the men behind him hiding my irritation. It was no way in hell, we were going to show up at our first pack dinner being flanked by guards.

"We are heading to dinner, I don't suppose you thought we were excluded from dinner right?" He asked.

"Hmm, I suppose not. You're not fooling anyone, the blind can see that this is an escort and I don't appreciate it." I sassed rolling my eyes.

"Tell that to the King darling" a man bellowed from the army.

"Since you were so kind to suggest that, I'm tasking you with telling him? How about that?" I asked and I saw the slight twitch of the lips of many of the men.

"We'll wait here for you" I said sweetly.

He didn't move from his spot, well trained. Nice.

I noticed they all stood a little straighter and the slight smiles that had once graced their lips were long gone.

The hairs on the back of my neck stood up and the reason soon revealed itself in the form of a buttery voice.

"Are you done commanding my guards Genesis"

And there he was, appearing from thin air in all his glory.

As usual.
