Page 30 of Captured By A Reckless Soul

“I don’t fuck with the dynasty no more and Ream knows that. Tell Ream to go fuck himself and you can afterward!” I sneered. “When I get in my car and y’all ain’t out of my way, I’m ramming that nice company car until you get the message.” I turned my back and slid into my car. I looked in my rearview mirror at Solo and could see him laughing while shaking his head. He told the guards something and they followed suit getting back inside of the limo. I waited for them to pull off and started my car.

Ream had me fucked up to think he had it like that. I no longer wanted parts with his fake ass operations. I didn’t like the way he made me feel either whenever I was around him. I would be good if I never laid eyes on him again. Ten minutes into my ride to one of my favorite restaurants my personal phone rung, I looked at it with lifted brows. Anybody that called my personal phone, I knew who it was. The number popped up as unknown, battling with answering, I said fuck it and tapped the screen, and remained silent.

“Big mistake Reaper. It’s sad that you chose to go about things the hard way with me.” Even his deep sexy voice had my insides going crazy. Ugh, I really needed to get a proper grip on myself.

“Ream, you and I have nothing to talk about.” I smiled as if he could see me.

“We have so much to talk about Mattea.” The way my name rolled off his tongue had me briefly closing my eyes and almost swerving into the next lane and cars to the side of me started to hunk their horns. Rolling my eyes and flicking them off, I focused back on the road as I listened to what he was saying.

“Look Ream, I finished my last assignment with Hector. I no longer have a place in your company.” I chose my words carefully since we were on the phone. “You and my father made a deal that I have nothing to do with. My services are no longer available to you and your fake ass company.” I hung up before he could respond and headed to Ruth Chris Steak house to eat alone in peace. Valet parking my car I hopped out and made my way inside. After being seated at my table I ordered lobster and steak and called my dad to check up on him.

“What’s up baby girl?” my dad sounded happy, it sounded like him and Kayori were out in traffic.

“Nothing, out to eat by myself. What y’all doing?” I told my waiter thanks for my drink and took a sip then picked up the bread to add some spread to it. My eyes drifted to a table that had a couple sitting comfortably under each other. They looked to be so in love. Sometimes I craved to know what it felt like to love someone other than my family. To be so attached to a person that I didn’t want to be apart from them. Those same thoughts would dissipate after I thought about my mental state of mind and my personal problems. I never wanted to be a burden on anyone and have a person feel sorry for me like I was weak.

“We out on the yacht. Everything okay with you?” I could hear the worry in his voice.

“Yea, everything is fine. I was just thinking of you, so I decided to call you. I think I want to throw a family dinner next week. Cook for you and Yori,” I smiled. It was the least that I could do, my father would never admit it, but I knew myself, Matthew and Kachella was a big disappoint to him. It was all overshadowed by how much he loved us. I went through my hot and cold moments that I sometimes couldn’t control when it came to my dad. I loved him to pieces but sometimes my attitude towards him could be fucked up. Heated arguments with him reminded me on how he had lied for years to me about my real mom. Not that I purposely tried to hold it against him. I just hadn’t forgotten about it and probably never would. It was just proof to me that even though my father was like my superhero, he too wasn’t so perfect.

He had broken down and told me the truth a hundred times and gave it to me raw. At first it hurt me to the core that I didn’t have my biological mother because he killed her. After understanding why and what all took place, I understood the position he was in. Things hadn’t been smooth or normal for me ever since, randomly I have dreams of my mom that’s disturbing. All in all, Kayori and my father wasn’t perfect, but they were good ass parents and I wanted to let them know how much I truly appreciated them.

“Aww that’s so sweet Tea.” Kayori cooed causing me to smile harder. I loved making these two happy because they always showed so much love and support to us. I hated when me and my father were at odds because a part of me felt unbalanced.

“Okay baby girl, have you been dating?” he asked, and I dropped my mouth in shock. If anybody didn’t want me dating that would be my father.

“No, I’m not looking for love dad.” I took a bite from my bread. “I don’t want my problems being someone else’s concern.”

“If you talking about the episodes, you have Tea that can be controlled by controlling your thoughts and feelings. When you hear that dark voice in your head, you got to embrace it and be able to know right from wrong. That’s what I do.” He stated confidently and I nodded my head.

“I understand but what about the catatonic disorder? I take meds and I have been trying to do everything in my power to prevent from freezing up. That shit is embarrassing.”

“It’s not embarrassing to me.” I heard a deep voice behind me and damn near jumped of my seat. My hand instantly clutched my gun that was in my waist tight.

“I thought you were eating alone?” my dad questioned.

“I am, someone I know just came to my table, now my waiter is here with my food. I will call you when I get home and settled.” I rushed my speech as fast as I could, I watched Ream open his suit jacket before taking a seat in front of me. Scanning the restaurant, I spotted Solo and a couple of other men sitting at a table close to the entrance.

“Okay, well we will continue this conversation later on. I love you Tea, call or text when you make it in safe.”

“Love you too and I will.” I hung my phone up, looking up at Ream, I couldn’t deny how fine he looked in a three-piece Navy-blue suit. He looked like he just left the barber shop with how sharp his tapered fade was. His goatee beard was lined up perfectly, I stared into his hazel brown eyes.

“What are you doing here?” I asked as the waiter walked up with my food.

“Bring a to-go container please.” He opened his suit jacket exposing his gun inside of its holster and pulled out a money clip that held neatly folded bills and peeled off a couple of hundreds from it and sat it on the table.

“We can do this shit the easy way, or perhaps you love it rough and hard.” He licked his lips and stared at my cleavage. Leaning over the table, his tall frame had the waiter looking on amused, his cologne drifted up my nose.

“You look like you love shit slow and easy, when it gets too good you like for a person to speed that shit up and give it to you rough.” He sat back and smiled, nodding to the waiter who was now flushed red in the face, she switched her perky ass off fast to get the to-go container. Ream had me speechless.

“Let me tell you how this shit gonna go.” He folded his hands, my eyes looked down at the big blue diamond ring on his pinky finger. “You’re going to pack your food and come with me slow and easy baby. I miss your sexy ass, so I’m willing to do things real slow and nice, but, if you give me a hard time… Shit is going to be real rough and fast. You got me?” I felt flutters in my stomach and hated how turned on he had me.

“I have a hair appointment in the next hour, since you’re here we can schedule a meeting later on next week. My schedule is full this week.” I smiled as we both looked at each other amusingly.

“That’s not going to work for me Mattea.” He paused as the waiter sat a to-go bag and container down in front of me. Ream picked up the money that he had taken out and handed it to her which was way too much for what I had purchased. “Keep the change and take this to the back and pack it up for her neatly please.” He winked at her as she hurriedly picked up my plate and walked away.

“When she returns with your food, make your way to my car promptly Mattea. I will take you to get your hair done and you will come with me. Leave your car keys with Solo, he will bring it to my place of residence.” Standing up like the conversation had ended he buttoned his suit jacket and nodded to his men as everyone except Solo stood. I made eye contact with Solo as he smiled back at me and waved. Once the waiter brought me my food, I got up and marched right past Solo, and headed to my car. Ream had me fucked up if he thought he was running anything when it came to me.

I knew exactly where the valet parked my car, so I headed to the restaurant’s parking garage to retrieve it. I looked around as I walked and didn’t see Ream anywhere in sight. My heart started to beat wildly. I slowed my pace when I noticed his Phantom sitting right behind my vehicle with him seated comfortably on the hood. Behind his car was an all-black Yukon.
