Chapter 55 - Chapter 55

I head fo the kitchen to make some food for him, after fifteen minutes I go inside to hand it to him when I see him patching yet another bullet wound

Are you kidding me right now?!! You got shot again?!! How many times has it been already?!!

I put the plate down and head towards him, my voice filled with rage and a hint of desperation too

It's not that big of a deal...

He says as he patches up the wound,

Tell me. Who did you save this time.

I cross my hands and ask,

Orion don't be like this... please understand he had a family back home...a son...a daughter and a wife. He had people waiting for him back home

He looks at me with a weary state

Do you not have someone waiting for you too??! Do I mean nothing to you?! Why don't you understand! Stop putting your life on the line! You're the only one I have and you're out there just putting your life in danger each day!

I didn't even realize that I started crying at this point. (Why does he never listen?!! Does he want to die so bad?!!)

Okay okay I'm sorry Orion... please...stop crying. You know I don't like it went you cry

He pulls me in close,

And I don't like it when you get shot but here we are!

I yell through tears

Okay okay I promise...I'm not going to put my life on the line again.

He looks at me, the same weary face but with a smile, I punch his chest avoiding the many bullet scars he has.

You'd better...

PRESENT TIME

SEBASTIAN'S POV

I'm working in my office, there are only a few days left till the event and I'm trying to wrap everything up because once this deal is secured and finalized it would change all our companies. I'm deep in paperwork when I hear a knock on the door and Louise walks in

Boss we've sent out the invitations to everyone and almost all of them have confirmed

He says placing the list on the desk,

Who hasn't?

I aks him grabbing the list,

Just the Sinclairs and the Carringtons. I'm sure they'll confirm too.

Ok good, what about the budget?

I ask him looking over the expense sheet

Well, we got 100k down for the decor, seating and catering and an additional 50k for the staff.

Louise says,

Great...how many people can we seat?

I ask,

About 400 people boss.

I looks over at the guest list,

400...make that 500. Adjust the expense sheet too.

I hand over the sheet back to him and he takes it and leaves.

PHEONIX'S POV

I'm working at my desk deep in my thoughts of what's to come in a few days when Louise approaches me with the same smile I've grown to love since day one.

Hey Liam I need a favor

He says passinge the sheets

Yeah what's up?

Can you please adjust the sheets to add 100 more guests?

He asks me with those puppy eyes which I couldn't refuse

Yeah of course don't worry about it I'll handle it

I reassure him and he sighs,

Thanks dude you're a good friend.

He pats my shoulder and leaves,

NIGHT BEFORE THE EVENT

I'm just laying in bed dreading of what's to come tomorrow, (it's all going to be over in a couple hours...I'll sneak away at the peak event...grab the documents and head out the back door where there is least security...hang on Orion I'm coming...)

Hey princess what're you thinking about...

I hear Sebastian's voice as he slides into bed next to me and wraps his arm around me.

Nothing... just nervous about tomorrow..

I reply trying not to make eye contact,

What's there to be nervouz about...I'll be right there with you ok?

He kisses the back of my neck

Hmm...ok...

He turns me around and pulls me in for a kiss, his arms wrap around me pulling me closer to him as he deepens the kiss,

Mnghh~

He pulled back slightly, his breath hot on my skin as he moves to my neck, leaving bites and kisses down my neck and onto my collar bone (what are you doing pheonix...you can't...not like this...I can't do this to him...I can't...he doesn't deserve any of this...) he keeps kissing my neck and collar while his hands were unbuttoning my shirt

Sebastian... please...

He moves down my chest leaving kisses everywhere not hearing me, I'm starting to feel bad and panicked inside...( I can't...I can't...) Before I knew it tears had started to fall from my eyes

Sebastian please...stop...

I manage to whispers out and he looked up at me and instantly stopped, his eyes filling with concern immediately.
