Chapter 89
Kendrix
Her siblings and her father have done a good job so far trying to gain her trust and favor. We both stood there watching the women have fun, his other brothers and Jayden Win-rose’s husband joined us, because of Arielyn, I not only got the throne that I always wanted, but I also got friends and a family. I had better relationships with people now and even my mom confirmed that I was a better man now. I had my baby to thank, she came into my life and gave me everything I wanted and everything I never thought I needed and I wanted it to be forever. I wanted to make her my wife soon and the queen of my heart.
Even though I wanted to ask her as soon as possible, I wanted something special for her so I went for a custom-made ring which had both of our initials engraved in it. I didn’t get the ones for the wedding as I wanted her to have a say in what we would get. It took about a week for the ring to be ready and delivered and while I waited for it to arrive, I made preparations for the engagement, I wanted it to just be the two of us so I didn’t tell anyone about it and did all the things myself, I ordered a lot of deco materials from online shops, went to get other things I needed by myself.
On the morning of the day, I left the house after kissing her goodbye and telling her I was going to work. I drove to my cozy cottage house. I picked there because it would be just the two of us and nature. I have barely used the place since I got it and it felt like the perfect place to ask my love to be mine forever. I got to work as soon as I arrived. I already had people clean the place two days ago so I went straight to decorations. It was a lot of work but it was worth it. By afternoon, I called her to let her know that I would pick her up from the house so that we could go on a date. She happily agreed. I finished up in no time and drove back to town. I didn’t go to the mansion but went to my penthouse to get ready. At five pm, I drove home to get her and told Mom and Raul that we wouldn’t be coming back until the next morning. I first took her to a restaurant for dinner, I couldn’t cook for shits so that wasn’t included in the proposal package. We ate and talked until it was about eight pm. I smiled lovingly at her and stretched out my hand, she took it without question.
“Where are we sleeping tonight since you told your mom we won’t be coming back home?”
She asked me when we were in the car.
“You will see, you trust me, right?”
I asked and she nodded.
“Of course, I trust you, Kenny, with all my heart,”
I smiled and for some reason, I suddenly became nervous. Obviously, she loves me just as much as I love her but that didn’t make it any easier. I pulled into the place and drove the short distance to my cottage house.
“Wow, where is this place?”
She asked, looking around.
“A house in the woods, perfect for our kind of run, you know what I am talking about right?”
I asked her and she nodded.
“Wow,”
She said as I brought the car to a stop, I came down and walked over to her side of the car and helped her out.
“So? What are we doing here? It’s beautiful,”Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
She commented while looking around.
“Patience baby, you will find out soon,”
I said, placing my hand on her back and leading her through the narrow gate that led to my cottage house.
“Are the lights always like this? Wow, who takes care of it when you are not here?”
She asked.
“There are people who take care of the houses when the owners are not here, mine is left like that until I ask otherwise,”
I explained. I knew the moment she saw my house because she let out an audible gasp.
“Wow, this is beautiful, Kenny, wow, I didn’t know you had a place like this, why haven’t you brought me here before?”
She asked as she looked around in awe, I smiled, glad that she liked what she was seeing.
“I was saving it for a special occasion, let’s go inside my love,”
I said. She gasped again and I felt my hands shake, she let go of me and walked forward.
“Oh my, when, oh, Kenny,”
She gasped, turning around with so much emotion in her eyes, her expression gave me some kind of peace, she liked what she was seeing and it was clear.
“I did a good job right?”
I asked her.
“Wait, did you do all of this by yourself?”
She asked and I nodded proudly.
“Yes, I did, I may not show it but I know how to do things like this, my mom threw a lot of parties when I was younger and I always helped her out with the decorations, I mastered it,”
I bragged; only for her though, I would only ever brag about it to her because I wanted her to know every little detail about me.
“Wow, I am impressed, my boyfriend is not only loving, he is rich, handsome, and has a lot of hidden and unhidden talent,”
She said and spun around. I saw the perfect opportunity for what I wanted. I walked ahead of her and called out for her to come to me. She gasped when she saw more of the decorations. I stepped to the side for my big reveal and heard her audibly gasp when she saw it.
“Oh my, Kenny,”
She whispered. I smiled nervously and got on my knees in front of her.
