The alpha male

“Robert wash up than you can eat my angel.”

“Yes let’s get cleaned up. “Ian said on his way to the bathroom.

“I am still waiting for my answer. “Andrew said.

“Enjoy the wait. “I said while walking away to go to the dining table.

When I got to a chair and tried to pull it out his hand was on top of mine and he pulled the chair out as a true gentleman would do. With a smile on my lips I took my seat and waited patiently for the rest of the sexy men to come and sit down for supper.

When everybody was sitting Robert took my hand and closed his eyes for his prayer like he does every time. There was a silence at the table when all of them looked at Robert. After Robert said grace and everyone started eating there was a sense of peace settling over me.

This is how I would love my life to be like. Someone there for me to tackle any storm that may come.

When everyone was finished I tried to get up to go and clean the dishes but Brian and Shane shot up, cleared the table and started cleaning up. Ian took Robert to where Robert can sleep for the evening and got him in the bath and ready for bed. I was left sitting there with Andrew watching me intense.

Andrew got up and stood behind my chair waiting for me to get up. He took my hand in his again and led me to the front of the house. When we stepped through the door there was a veranda looking out over the garden with a swimming pool glittering in the evening lights.

There was also one of those swing benches and we walked over there and sat there together, listening to the night.

This was peaceful. I felt at peace for a little while. But then I remembered that someone tried to run me over this afternoon.

“Stop thinking so much. Just relax.”

“Easy for you to say, someone didn’t try and run you over with a car. Not to even mention the explosion at the house. If something happened to Robert I will not be able to get through that.”

“But you are safe and Robert is safe, I promise you nothing will happen to you or Robert I and all of them will make sure about that.”

“Why? All of you guys are sexy men who deserve to not be burdened with me.”

“Ah that is why you laughed in the kitchen. You think all of us are sexy? Why thank you mam. All of us were in the Navy and are here in South-Africa to see about expanding our company. With the training we became like brothers and so we decided to start a company that specialises in security, now we are expanding here.”

“That sound interesting. So with your training you will be able to give me self-defence lessons?”

“Yes I will do that when the time is right. But for now we will protect you always.”
