His Maid's Son novel Chapter 4

That boy hasn't been able to leave my mind and I haven't even talked to him yet. I wonder how bad it will be once I get to meet him. I made sure some of my security detail had accompanied them to retrieve their belongings from their house. I had given them precise instructions that no harm should come to Christian and his mother, and if need be, to involve authorities.

Hopefully, by the time I get home, they will have already moved into my compound. I had Yussuf prepare a two-bedroom flat and it should be enough for both of them.

I decided to drop by a friend on my way home. Jake owns several clubs in town; I had to call him just to know where he would precisely be and at what time. I ended up overstaying to my disappointment, when I got home they had gone to sleep.

I went straight to bed with hopes of seeing him tomorrow before I leave for work.

"Good morning sir." Elizabeth greeted me warmly when I got in the kitchen the following morning. She seemed happier than and almost younger since I last saw her.

"Good morning to you as well Elizabeth, " I answered just as warmly. " And please call me Alexander."

" Are you sure you don't mind?"

" I don't, since you will be working in my personal space and mostly making meals for me, I think a first name basis is in order. " I assured truthfully,

" How are you finding the place? I hope your living quarters are comfortable enough." I added

"It's more than we could have asked for, it's so comfortable and we love it here. "

" I'm glad to hear," my eyes scanned around for any sight of Christian but nothing. " How is your son?" I prompted so that I could get an idea of where he was.

"That silly boy is still sleeping. I think he is enjoying the comfortable bed too much for he has never laid in such a bed." She answered light-heartedly.

Because that is what I was too Christian and as much as I find him attractive I can't act on it. I promised myself never to go down that road again and I intend to keep it. All the excitement I felt earlier had drained out of my blood by the time I got downstairs. I took my coffee from Elizabeth and looked around for Christian. As if she read my mind; "He is already waiting outside with Yusuf."

"Did he have breakfast yet?" I prefer my employees well rested and fed.

"Yes he did earlier together with Yusuf," she explained.

"Okay, have a nice day" And I walked out.

The sight that met my eyes made me halt mid-stride. The boy I hadn't quite seen clearly, was standing by the car in a cheap suit that shaped his slender frame amazingly. His curls were pushed to the side revealing greyish eyes. When his eye caught mine, I got stunned for a second before I straightened my back and strode toward him.

"Good morning Christian, we haven't formally met, my name is Alexander." He put his small hand in mine as he shook it and I swear I felt a shiver run down my spine I almost gasped. I quickly pulled my hand from his hold like he had burned it, startling him in the process.
