" Hey Xaden " Daniella called out with a smile as she walked towards his table,she was putting on a low waist baggy jean and a crop top that had accentuated her model figure.
Xaden exhaled from his work before he raised his head to look at her and the moment his eyes landed on the big bag in her hand,he creased his brows,why did the bag look like a three days affair package.
"What's with the big bag " he asked as soon as she reached his table.
"Oh this" she replied. " I'm sorry I didn't tell you first but I'm planning to go see my aunt tomorrow morning as she's unwell so I was hoping I could just pass the night at your place today and head there straight tomorrow morning since it's closer " she explained in an apologetic voice.
Daniella was Xaden's long time friend and since she had explained her reasons for wanting to sleep over,there was no problem and so he nodded his head to her words after pondering on it for a second.
After his nod,he returned his eyes back to his work and so he missed the creepy smile that appeared on Daniella's lips the moment he agreed.
Xaden had barely written a word when the door opened again and this time,it was Shawn, Xaden upon noticing him wanted to ask him a question about a particular file but he soon halted as soon as he saw Shawn with a bag too but smaller compared to Daniella's.
"Where're you going" Xaden asked.
"Your house offcourse" he nonchalantly replied as he walked over to the table and placed the bag on a chair before glancing at a Daniella who was side eyeing him
"Okay,but what about the bag"
"Well I figured since it's been a while I could spend the night there" he answered taking a seat looking relaxed but his answer just seemed to have made Daniella flare up.
"Huh,What the hell is even your problem Shawn,so because I'm spending the night,you suddenly want to spend the night too" she yelled
"Watch your mouth you bitch cause I didn't even see you when I walked in here" Shawn retorted.
Daniella angrily turned towards Xaden's who was slightly surprised at Daniella's sudden rage.
"Xaden you have to refuse him,he can spend every other night at your place but not today "
"And why is that,huh" Shawn retorted. " Why are you so scared to have me there, is there something you're planning to do ehh"
Daniella's rage fueled " You imbecile..."
"Okay that's enough you two,for heavens sake that's enough " Xaden interrupted in a cool yet audible voice that was enough to silence the two.
As soon as they were quiet,he turned to Daniella " if you're worried about your space or you two getting into a feud,you don't have to worry about that okay,my house is big enough to contain you two and to also keep your space okay,so you really don't have to see each other if you don't want to" he explained.
"See" Shawn said still smiling.
Daniella's rage even fueled the more but she managed to keep a calm facade and sat down with a grumpy face folding her hands together,this Shawn of a man was really testing her patience.
Shawn had a victorious yet mocking smile on his lips as he stared at Daniella's sour face. " Don't worry,as long as you stir clear of me we good" he said teasingly before he got up from the chair and walked out of the office to finish up some work before they left the office.
Daniella bit her lips hard as soon as Shawn left,she wasn't happy that Shawn was coming with them.
At exactly 7:35pm,the three left the office for Reigns Mansion with Daniella sitting at the front passenger seat of the car while Xaden and Shawn at the back as they engaged in manly talks.
It was Friday and due to the heavy traffic,it was almost 9:00pm by the time they arrived at Xaden's house and as soon as the cars pulled up in the driveway,they all filled out of the car and walked into the house with a man helping with Shawn and Daniella's bag.
As soon as they stepped into the huge living room, Xaden loosened his tie and pulled his Rolex watch before dropping it on the table,all the while his eyes searching every corner of all floors for his wife.
"Mira" he called out unfolding his sleeves in which he had rolled up when work got intense in the office.
"Where is she" Shawn asked still looking around as he was totally excited to see her again,well it only took a matter of seconds before Shawn's question was answered as Mira suddenly appeared with her teddy on the second floor, dressed in red shorts and a small white top,she looked all so excited at the voice that had called out to her as she poked her head downstairs and the moment she saw Xaden,her eyes lit up like a thousand stars in the sky and her feet instantly moved and raced down the stairs,her mind litting up like a starry night sky with the anticipation of seeing her beloved husband.
"Oh there she is" Shawn exclaimed happily the moment he saw the red haired beauty running towards her husband.
Xaden turned towards her direction and opened his arms wide just in time to receive her.
"Hubby" she cried softly before she crashed into him,her arms around his neck and her voice a symphony of joy and happiness
Xaden wrapped his arms around her,his heart swelling with love. " Hey love" he murmured,his voice a soft caress as he placed loving kiss on her forehead. He loved it when she misses him as badly as he did.
As soon as Mira pulled out of the hug, Xaden tilted her head up to see her beautiful face,his hands still wrapped around her waist. " Mmmm won't you give me a kiss" he asked and Mira was quick to provide her pouted lips for her hubby to place a smack on and as soon as he placed it,she began blabbering about all that had happened today completely oblivious of the other two people present in the room.
"Hubby,do you know that today I saw a big dog on TV"
"Really "
"Yes"
"Tell me about it" Xaden urged and Mira began to explain, Xaden had always had that nack for giving his wife a listening ear no matter what it was she was saying and how childish or ridiculous it may sound
