The drive to the restaurant was comfy and quick. There wasn't much traffic on the road which made us reach our destination right on time. Kyson parked the car in one of the parking spots next to the restaurant.

We stepped out of the car.

Kyson walked to my side and put his arm forward. I wrapped my arm around him and we both made our way to the front entrance of the restaurant. We walked through the door, making our way to the counter.

There was a lady behind the counter.

"Good evening," she greeted us.

"Good evening, we have a reservation under Kyson Lucero," Kyson spoke.

"Let me check,"

The lounge area was pretty. The wall was white but with the small lights, it look like a shade of light pink and beige.

"I'll take you to your table, Sir." A man approached us. We followed him inside and my eyes roamed around. It was prettier.

The restaurant has a few people and it was quiet with slow music playing in the background. The man guided us to the table for couples.

We sat down and the man handed us a menu card. He went to grab a bottle of red wine and pour us some for us while we decide on our appetizer and food. It didn't take us long to decide as we both agreed to try the seafood section. The waiter took our orders and took the menu cards away.

"It's really pretty," I commented as I looked up at the light decorations.

"Hmm, not as much as you."

I shift my gaze to him and found him already looking at me, with a soft smile displayed on his lips and his eyes showed his admiration.

I grabbed my wine glass and drink a sip, trying to hide my blushing face.

"Cheesy," I spoke.

"I'm not wrong though."

The waiter came by with our appetizer.

"Thank you."

We both grabbed our forks and tasted test it.

"It's good," Kyson commented and I nodded, agreeing. We ended up finishing the whole thing within ten minutes.

"How was your day today?" I asked as I leaned my right elbow on the table, my hand under my chin.

"It was good, I didn't have much to do besides going to a meeting and going to a street fair." He answered.

"A street fair?" I repeated.

"Yeah, Val was driving and he went there to meet Cassandra. Unfortunately, I had to tag along." He explained, making me chuckle at the last part.

"You were the third wheel huh?" I playfully said.

"Well, I let them alone and went roaming around... How was your day?" He inquired.

"It was good. I was mainly at the mansion looking at the guys training." I replied.

"Half-naked guy training." He added in a monotone voice.

"Hmm no, they were fully naked guys," I said sarcastically.

He raised an eyebrow, clenching his jaw clearly not liking what I just said.

"Chill, no one train bare chest... beside Ryker," I reassured him.

His eyes never left mine.

"Lean forward." He demanded.

What?

I found myself slowly leaning forward like he asked me. He moved closer, his face a few inches away from mine and he reached to stroke my cheek with the back of his fingers.

"I do not like it went you stare at other men and I hate it when they eye fucking rape you right in front of my eyes. If it was up to me, they would be dead. I told it once before and I'm saying it again... sharing isn't one of my abilities, especially not my girl. Now if my girl misbehaves, I have my ways of punishing her." He spoke, his eyes bored into mine.

Woah.

That was hot.

He's hot.

I closed the gap between us by leaning in more and I pressed my lips against him, giving him a sweet, long and soft kiss.

"You look hot when you're angry," I murmured with a smile on my lips.

"Any other girl would freak out and hate my possessiveness... then there is you finding it hot." He pointed out.

I shrugged," I know you care and if being possessive is your way of showing it, who I am to stop you?"

He stared at me before smiling.

"Will you marry me?"

A laugh escapes my lips.

"Hmm maybe one day," I said.

We both pulled away as the waiter came back with our food. The first thing he bought was the red sauce shrimp and clamps with Garlic bread. Then he bought our sushi order, which was a lot.

Once he left, we both dig in. All the food came in separate large plates and we had our plates in front of us. We served ourselves and started to eat.

Everything was delicious.

Then we proceed to eat our dessert.

"I have something to tell you."

I looked up at Kyson, "Yes?"

"I'm going out of town for a few days." He told me.

"Oh, where are you going?"

"Canada. My father lives there and he's not well. My brother told me that he asked to see me, so I'm heading there." He explained.

"When are you leaving?"

"Tonight at 11 30 p.m," he answered.

Oh.

"If you don't mind, can you tell me a little bit about your family?" I asked curiously. I know nothing about his family while he already met my mom, my brother and even my dad.

"Sure... My father is my only parent. I have an elder brother and a younger brother, I'm the middle kid. They both have their own business including their mafia. Despite being close to each other, we rarely meet up because of work. These past two years my dad has been sick and it's only then that we started to meet up occasionally." He explained.

"What happened to your dad?" I asked cautiously.

"He worked a lot on the field when he was a leader and he got hurt a lot. The last one touch his organs making them internally bleed. The doctor was able to fix it, but now we found out he has cancer in his lungs." He spoke.

"I'm sorry," I said sincerely.

"He's a tough man,"
