Mafia's Curves novel Chapter 38

The entire office was walking in egg shells, their boss was in the worst mood they have ever experienced. He has already fired 3 people in one presentation and now people are more careful with what they do or say. But it wasn't like this from this morning, he was in a pretty good mood but all that went to vein after mid-afternoon. It was now 5 in the evening and the office was as tense as ever especially his floor.

The door of his office busted open making everyone there tense to their core. A raging Caleb walked out of the office with a scowl on his face, "I am done for the day. Make sure to lock everything and if anything is missing.. you know what will happen!" He said as soon as get got out of the office to his secretary. The poor boy just nodded his head and muttered an 'okay sir'

Caleb got inside his car still agitated with the whole fiasco. He tried to call Fallon but it went straight to voicemail, "Damn it Fallon! Pick up the phone" he gritted his teeth and sped up the car. He was burning in rage and jealousy, it was just one little text on his mind.

*Flashback*

Caleb's POV:-

I couldn't help the smile that etched on my face. I looked out of the full length window looking down at the beautiful city of New York. I leaned back on my chair and closed my eyes, it's been so long.. since we first met. It's my birthday today. I had somethings made very specially for my dandelion. I know I know it's my birthday and I shouldn't be the one giving gifts and not the other way round but it's my dandelion and I'll take every chance to make her happy.

I could only imagine the smile on her innocent face. She has been stressed with the hospital lately and doesn't have time for anything. Maybe this will help her relax.

I was snapped out of my dreamland when my phone pinged with a message. I unlocked my phone and it was Fallon.

' Hey babe I am sorry I won't be able to make it home today.

Sorry hade, I love you'

My mood suddenly dampened, she hasn't been home since last night. I really wanted to spend some quality time with my wife. That's all I wanted. I picked up my phone and called her, after two rings she picked it up.

"Hey babe" she sounded breathless

"Hey dandelion, why can't you make it home today?" I asked trying hard to keep my irritation at bay.

"Yeah I have been assigned the night shift again!! I swear to God if I don't get tenure I'll shoot myself" I could practically see her rolling her eyes and huffing and puffing.

"It's okay sweetie... I was wondering if you could get home for an hour or two between shifts... And you know... We could go out for dinner" I said just trying to get some moments with her.

"Aww babyyy... I wish I could come.. but...." She sounded a little hesitant making me raise my brow.

"But what?" I asked sitting up straight on the chair.

"...I am just tired and I wanna grab some Burger King and go off to work... You know... Coming back home taking a shower and all... I won't feel like coming back to work..." She trailed off

I released a breath, "Okay then... Umm.. you wait in the park I'll bring you something nice to eat?" I said desperately wanting to spend my birthday with her even if it's for a few minutes.

"...... I can't... Actually this senior of mine offered me to grab a bite with him.. and I couldn't say no because he is.. well my senior.." now that pissed me off.

"Why can't you just take the fucking day off??? I mean today?? Of all the days you had to work today for an entire day???!!!" I yelled out in irritation. It's MY birthday, her husband and instead of spending it with me she is off with another man?? Son of a bitch! Only if I had my gun, I would have shot that mother fucker right in his dick.

"CALEB it's not up to me when I work, okay? How hard is it for you to understand I HAVE WORK! I am not the one owning a billion dollar company, okay? I need to work not for me but for others. And don't worry it's just one regular day, I'll take the day off tomorrow and spend time with you, okay?" She exasperated annoying me further.

"You don't have to!! Spend tomorrow with YOUR senior!" I snapped and cut off the call.

*End of flashback*

I raced back home through I wanted to go to her hospital and throw her over my shoulder and bring here back home but I can't. She is her own person and has also withhold sex a lot of time because I went all 'caveman' on her.

I parked my car outside our mansion and got out. I heard the main door open and a small head peep out of the door. She came out from behind the door with a huge grin on her face and raced towards me, "Dadddaaaaaaaa" my little angel ran with her tiny arms wide open.

"Hey hey, what did I tell you about running in the drive way?" I said and caught her in my hand. I picked her up and threw her in the air and caught her again making her giggle, "Sowwy dadda" she said with three teeth missing from the front. I chuckled and kissed her head.

That is our 2 year old daughter, Endellion Jade Kings. She is the most perfect thing in the world, big beautiful doe green eyes, a cute button top nose and a rosy pink lips and her silky black blond hair framing her angelic face. But don't let her innocence fool you. She is one hell of a prankster, obviously taking that part from me and my brother's viscious kids.

Three days back she spilled oil on the floor when her babysitter was chasing her to take a bath. The poor boy fell down and my little prankster poured a bag of flour on him. Thank God he didn't break a bone or anything major and he was a good kid who understood her mischievousness and didn't take that to heart. I had to increase his salary for being this understanding but hey it's for my little prankster.
