BXBX NOVEL Chapter 333: Catching Up
And after thorough chastisement by the police, and a bit of bribery, Alex found himself released from interrogation, free to walk the Seoul’s once more. Where Chun-Hei was by his side, laughing at the trouble he had gotten himself into on her behalf.
“You really didn’t have to do that…”
Alex, however, felt that his actions were fully justified and vowed that he would do them again, given the chance.
“Of course I did! Any man who dares to touch my women will share a similar fate! After answering all those questions, I’m a bit hungry. How about we go grab a bite to eat before going back to your place?”
Chun-Hei couldn’t help but agree to Alex’s request. After all, she was maxed out in affection, essentially making herself beholden to his every request. She would never deny Alex, nor betray him, even if she herself didn’t quite realize this reality.
Because of this, she clutched to his arm and followed him to a nearby fast-food joint, which was pretty much the only thing open at this ungodly hour. Judging by the way these two were dressed, the employees could guess that the two of them had been clubbing, and were naturally jealous of Alex as he ordered food for himself and his girl.
Chun-Hei couldn’t help but laugh at the absurdity of it all as she spoke to Alex with an endearing tone in her alluring voice.
“I have to admit… I never thought I would ever be at a fast-food joint, at three in the morning after going clubbing with you…”Alex was munching on his meal, truly starving after everything he had been through, and in doing so casually tossed out a promise to the woman that she fully expected him to keep.
“You call that clubbing? How about next time you and I go out and have some fun for real, just the two of us?”
Alex then bit into his food once more while Chun-Hei smiled at him, admiring his handsome appearance despite the fact that just a few hours ago, he literally killed a man. She spoke her mind with a wistful tone as she agreed to Alex’s request, albeit with a caveat of her own.
‘I’d very much enjoy that. Just promise me no more clubs! I can’t stand those party like environments…”
This merely elicited a chuckle from Alex, and a nod of his head. He was too busy focused on his food and satisfying his intense hunger to really care. It was only then that Chun-Hei asked him about what he had said earlier, dragging his attention to the forefront.
“You said you were in Iran? What in the hell were you doing in that god awful place? Especially with everything going on in the middle east right now, don’t tell me you’re doing something illegal?”
Even if Alex confessed to his involvement in Los Zetas and going to Iran with the purpose of acquiring weapons for the cartel. Chun-Hei wouldn’t care, despite her profession as an officer of the law. That was just how much she loved Alex.
But Alex did not confess to this, having thoroughly learned his lesson the last time around. Instead, he came up with something that wasn’t truly a lie. In fact, it was legitimately his primary reason for being there.
“Why else? Romance, of course. There is a woman there who has caught my fancy and is quite the tough nut to crack. But I’m determined to do so, even with everything that is going on in the region right now. Oh, this reminds me, I haven’t introduced her to any of you, yeah, but I already nabbed myself an Arabian Princess. I should introduce you to her the next time I’m in town.”
This confession stunned Chun-Hei, who nearly choked on her food, washing it down with her drink and breathing heavily before asking for clarification on what Alex had just boasted about.
“Hold on Alex! Did you just say you have gotten yourself an Arabian Princess? I mean, I saw the news about you being a prince and all, but what the hell?”
Alex scoffed as he heard this before bringing Chun-Hei up to date on the whole Aisha issue. The story was riveting, and was almost something out of a movie, causing Chun-Hei to be thoroughly enthralled by it. But at the end of the story, she was deeply jealous and felt a vague threat by what Alex had said.
Obviously with him being revealed as a member of the British Peerage from an older Royal Dynasty, which came to light after he had eloped with the Saudi Princess it was only a matter of time before Aisha contacted her family in an attempt to set up a marriage between herself and Alex.
Not wanting to be a mere concubine, Chun-Hei was quick to alert Alex to this potential reality. Causing him to freeze in silence for several seconds. Until he stood up in a panic, shouting as he did so.
“She wouldn’t really do that, would she? Shit! This complicates things…. I’m sorry Chun-Hei, I have to go right now. I promise you I will be back in a few days once I have resolved this issue! I love you, sweetheart, and tell the others I feel the same!”
Chun-Hei sighed heavily. She, of course, wanted to sleep with Alex on this night since he had shown himself for the first time in months. But she was, of course, all too aware of what Aisha’s schemes meant to the stability of the harem. And because of this, she was willing to let Alex go so long as he fulfilled the two promises he had made to her on this night.
