Chapter 88

• Kendrix
• I watched Arielyn talk and laugh with some women who were at the cookout, some of whom were her brothers’ wives and their friends. We were at a cookout that her older brother was hosting at her family’s resort. I looked at their fingers and realized she was the only one not wearing a ring, I knew it was time to fix that. The past seven months have been nothing but blissful for me. Arielyn was and is the best thing that ever happened to me, I couldn’t stay away from her for long, I took her everywhere with me and she willingly followed me even though she sometimes had to work, I made sure our schedules never crashed to the extent of me going away without her, the only time I traveled without her had been hell so I ended up sending my jet to go get her. she talked about me being too obsessed with her and I accepted it whole-heartedly and told her I was making up for all the times we couldn’t be together because I had been blinded, if Veronica had not done what she did to me, I would have found Ari earlier and she would not have had to spend eight years alone. She was mine from the beginning, mine. Never was she met for Jordan, he never had her, never deserved her. Because she was meant to be mine, we were able to find each other even though it took eight long years.
• Jordan, that bastard, after I made up with Arielyn, our father had requested to see us. He made us tell him everything that had been happening after he saw the bruises on Jordan’s face. I didn’t say anything but Jordan was the one that spilled everything and even had the mind to try and blame me. That’s when I finally spoke. Father had told us to put everything behind us and focus on the future, he told Jordan that he needed to respect me as his future king and older brother and Jordan had grudgingly left.
