The Billionaire’s Song - Chapter 30 Overstepping

Kyle’s POV

I was super excited. Maya was coming home today. We would be flying back to LA tomorrow and I was anxious to leave. I would be taking her back home as my wife. I still had to get used to it.I had decided to give her a surprise wedding and fortunately she was excited as I was. I had expected some resistance but I had read between the lines and I was right. I wouldn’t lose her this time. I was ready to protect her to the death.

I was on my way to collect her ward and I noticed Dr Williams was sitting by her side and clinging onto her hand. They seemed deep in conversation and he was looking at her like a love-struck teenager. I stood outside and monitored the situation through the slightly open blinds.Maya seemed uncomfortable and kept looking around the room like a trapped animal. I could hardly make out what she was saying but he was started kissing her hand rather affectionately. I moved closer to the room and stood at the door, but the love-struck doctor didn’t notice me.

“I’m going to miss having you around,” Dr Williams said, “I wish you weren’t married then maybe I could have had a fighting chance-but yes I get it-you love Kyle and you’re soul mates and all that-but I thought I’d just let you know how I feel-maybe there was a slight chance that you felt the same way?” He looked at my wife with dreamy eyes.

You’ve got to be kidding me..this guy was hitting on my wife. No way was I going to stand around and watch this. I burst into the room ready to tell him where to shove his declarations of undying love.

He jumped up when he finally saw me. He seemed nervous and couldn’t look me in the eye.

“Just a quick reminder Dr Williams-Maya is my wife.She is married.So just remember that before you overstep your boundaries okay?” I scowled at him.

“Kyle-” Maya tried to cut in.

“Babe stay out of this please?”I didn’t take my eyes off Dr Williams.

“Kyle-I’m sorry-I just had to tell her,” he mumbled.

“She’s my freaking wife!” I was close to losing it.

“I know but I’ve always loved her-for a long time now and when I tried to fight my feelings theyjust got stronger,” he boldly declared.

“Dude-you’ve got-you know what just get out of here before I do something that we will both regret,” I stepped up to him.

“I’m sorry man but-” he gulped.

“I-said-get-out.Now!” I clenched my jaw.

He glanced longingly at Maya and then walked out in a huff.

“What was that?” I walked over to my wife.

“I’m sorry you had to see that,” Maya frowned.

“The nerve-” I sputtered angrily.

“Baby..relax there’s no harm done okay?” She pulled me closer and kissed me.

“Don’t try and distract me-that guy was disrespecting me-and you babe,” I fumed.

“He’s a non-event okay? So let this go-please?” She smoothed my shirt.

“Okay fine,” I said grudgingly as I kissed my wife back.

“You’re ready to go home babe?” I asked.

“Yes!”

“Then let’s get out of here before I break someone’s neck,” I grabbed her bags and handed them over to my driver that was waiting outside.

We settled into the back seat of the car and I scooped Maya and placed her onto my lap.

“I missed this,” I kissed her neck.

“Hmmm,” she smiled and put her hands round my neck.

“Would you like to go away somewhere-anywhere just for a little while? ” I asked her.

“What did you have in mind?”

“I have a little house in Kandersteg- Switzerland and I’d really like to take you there?”

“Little?” She raised her eyebrows.

“Well. .it’s cosy,” I laughed softly.

“Is this like our honeymoon?” She smiled.

“Kinda..we can do that if you’re up for it babe. Whatever you need.” I said softly.

“I guess I could use some time away,” she looked away.

“Hey..I’m here for you babe. We will get through this together okay?” I turned her chin up and kissed her nose.

She nodded and buried her face in my chest and started to cry. She cried quietly at first and then opened up the flood gates.Her body shook as she sobbed uncontrollably.

I didn’t say anything to her, I just held her in my arms until she quieted down.I stroked her hair and kissed her tenderly.

“I’m sorry-I’m a bit emotional-I’m not usually like this-” she choked.

“Hey don’t you dare apologize okay?” I said sternly. “You went through a very harrowing experience and you have every right to be emotional okay?”

She nodded quietly.

“When I found you I-I even broke down and-I cried..” My eyes got misty.Just thinking about it drove me to the edge of insanity.

“I’m- sorry you had to find me like that,” she said sadly.

“Hey-stop apologizing okay?” I exclaimed.”None of it was your fault. You need to stop blaming yourself okay?”I kissed her firmly.

“Can you tell me? Will you ever be able to..?” She twisted her hands nervously.

“Babe..you can ask me anything..anything at all and you know I would do it in a heartbeat. But-don’t ask me to do that. I can’t. I don’t think I can ever-” I shook my head.

“It’s okay. I understand. I just needed some answers-that’s all.” She said morosely.

“I’m sorry babe. I can’t,” my face dropped. “When I gave a statement to the police it was the hardest thing I ever had to do. I don’t think I can talk about it again.. maybe I just need time..”

“We need to get out of the car now. We can talk some more over dinner. Sounds good?” I had to squash this before it went and further.

“Yeah. .I think I need to rest a bit though. I feel really drained. Will you take a nap with me??” She said shyly.

“Of cos babe.I can do more than that,” I replied and she smiled.

“Butfirst-I need to carry you over the threshold Mrs Kinley,” I smiled as I scooped her into my arms again and carried her into the house.

“By all means Mr Kinley, ” she giggled.

“I love the sound of your laughter babe.It’s like music to my ears,” I kissed her forehead.

I carried her upstairs and laid her on the bed. I removed her shoes and got a soft brush from the nightstand.

“I’m going to brush your hair because I know it makes you fall asleep quickly,” I waved the brush as I jumped onto the bed and started to brush her lovelyhair, that was already splayed across her pillow.

“I love it when you brush my hair baby. It’s the best feeling ever,” she sighed contentedly, she was already getting sleepy.

I put my arms around her and spooned her until we both fell into a deep sleep.
