The men quietly sat in the room with deep thought as they looked Nathan who just said a shocking statement.
Eli looked at his brother with a conflicted gaze. He just called Katelyn his woman and it equally meant that he had taken an interest in her, right?
Nathan looked over and caught Eli's vision. Flustered Eli looked away but he soon regret it since it made him feel more guilty.
'Jez! Why am I acting like this?! Brother is bound to get more suspicious!! I need to hide what I can before it's too late.' He made a mental note to hide everything about Katelyn.
He promised Katelyn that if there was some way or how she got married then he would do everything to hide her secret.
'Katelyn is honestly such a fool...' but wouldn't that make him an even bigger fool for hiding it? He shook his thoughts away.
Nathan knew that his brother was having an internal battle about something. It was probably his words that shaken Eli a bit.
"Do you like her?" Aaron asked breaking the ice in the room. Everyone secretly gave him a thumbs up for shifting the topic forward. Phew!! If they stay in the deep silence any longer they would have cried.
"I love her." He said shocking the room.
'That why I missed so much in the past...' he thought about how he was pushed away by her.
His hand clenched remembering that day.
'Why was I so stubborn? No, more like I was a coward.'
"Pff! Cough!! Cough!! Cough!!!" Matthew chocked in his wine and looked at the man with disbelief. At least on things for sure, Nathan didn't lie at all.
But can't he see that his words are breaking them one by one? Even the loud ones like Daniel and Micheal shut up and tentatively listened to him dumbfounded.
"Ooh? Nathan in love? Quite the tag I suppose. What do you love about her? No offence to Ms.Evertine, but there are many ladies that can match you better." Aaron said.
'Aaron your our hero!!' The group was glad it was the cold and indifferent Aaron asking instead of them.
"You say other ladies are better? Are you referring to the spoiled rich little girls who rely on their parents to make money while they themselves also blow off money? Sorry to disappoint but she wouldn't and never will be like that." He said calmly looking directly at the man.
That was a diss wasn't it? Aaron felt his brows twitch by his question.
He met Katelyn before and that was because he was dragged into her boutique by his sister to make her wedding dress and for sure she was anything but a spoiled woman. Okay he had a point. She was a woman with good character.
"A slip of the tongue. But why do you love her?" Aaron said.
'Shit! Now how would he explain that he loved her in his past life and that she was his wife? Aaron you really don't hold back in questions'
Nathan felt and idea hit him and explain to the rest, "Katelyn is.. how do I say.. when I think about her I would feel this tight feeling in my chest." He paused and gave a small smile that was new for everyone.
It was a happy and gentle smile and for sure it was for the woman he was thinking about.
They all nodded in agreement, Nathan had serious problems with women appearing in his bed. Thats why he would ruthlessly kick out any woman who makes a move at him. Most blind dates were like that for Nathan. It almost traumatized that man that he almost start hating woman for the reason.
"It's weird right? But I know that she would be the only one who could make me feel this way. The one who could make my heartbeat faster than ever. That when I knew I couldn't live without this woman and that I could love her." He said.
Aaron felt his eyes shift for a moment before returning to his usual calm self.
Eli looked a bit emotional hearing his words. He held the wine cup so tightly that soon enough it might break.
'Why did it have to be so early? Brother... even sister had the same feeling for you but she still wouldn't except you because of her own fears..'
'Maybe I should just tell him and face the consequences.' He was stuck in a battle of yes and no's.
"Nathan finally fell in love. Congratulations man!! Wait so does that mean your gonna get married soon?" Matthew asked.
"No she running away from me." He said sadly.
He was given a pitiful look by them and he glared back. It was not his fault at all!! It was his wife that was avoiding him, okay?!
"What did you do?" Tristan asked.
"She probably been scared by my sudden aggression towards her in the date. She even asked me if I was an imposter." He said.
Actually they all wanted to ask if he was an imposter, but they kept mum about it since this was definitely the same man in the flesh.
"At least I'm not like Daniel. I bet he will be the last one to get married before us all." Nathan deliberately said shifting the topic off him.
"I second that!" Michael said.
"Bro your attacking me!! You and Aaron may decline women who show up to you but I don't! It a free world and you can do whatever you want!" He whined and proved his point.
"Your mother gave me a call-" it was Adan who spoke showing his phone and the text Daniel's mother wrote.
"Shut up!! Shut up!! I don't want to hear it!! Don't even reply to her, she definitely captured and bring me home for a beating!!!" Daniel covered his ears making them laugh.
"Recently the Queen Dowager at his house was nagging him to get married since his cousin got married recently." Adan said to everyone.
"Adan!! You bastard!! I thought we were still friends!! Guess it ended... TODAY!!!" Daniel glared at him.
"Imagine telling her that Nathan finally found a woman. I could see that she would probably beat Daniel black and blue." Matthew snickered evilly.
"You wouldn't dare-" his mouth drop amazingly and he pointed towards the window of the private room.
"Tristan isn't that your sister!!!" Daniel said loudly instantly everyone turned around and saw Serena and few other women enter the private rooms area. They all laughed and talked before entering the room beside theirs.
Talk about a coincidence!!
"Katelyn Evertine, Serena Williams, Sergeant Lavi Nickson, Julia Frabi, Carmel Quest and Rachel Gregor!!" Michael said in an astonished tone.
Well shit!! Thing couldn't get any better!! The men looked at Aaron and Nathan who's eyes were looking at the women's retreating back. It seem they locked on to a certain prey.
"That's a group full of hotties." Michael said in admiration.
He could see that today would be and interesting show. Two women avoiding two men for their fear life.
Who wouldn't be interested?
