Chapter 42


    “Heather? How… How long have you been standing there?” Levi questioned as he hung up his phone


    and walked up to her with wide eyes.


    She narrowed her eyes suspiciously on him.


    “I just came. Why are you acting so weird?” He heaved a sigh of relief then smiled at her.


    “It’s nothing. I was just talking to my brother and I said something embarrassing and was hoping you


    didn’t hear that” He mentally gave himself a handshake for being able to think of a lie that fast and by


    the looks of it, Heather believed him.


    “Oh I didn’t hear anything. I was busy staring at the beautiful painting down the hall. I feel like it has a


    story behind it, right?” He furrowed his eyebrows.


    “Show me?” She nodded and they walked out of the room and towards a huge painting stered on


    the wall. It was kind of hard to miss and Levi understood how this painting was able to catch her whole


    attention.


    “Oh this, it was painted by my mother. She poured her whole soul, pain and happiness into it… well


    ording to my Father. I guess it takes a creative eye to really know what this painting is about” He


    muttered as a sad smile appeared on his face.


    “I guess that means your mother’s dead?” Heather questioned as she turned to him and he nodded.


    “She died when I was three so I have no memory of her but my father made sure I never forgot she


    existed” There was something with the way he said that that made her frown.


    “She was an artist?” Levi nodded.


    “Apparently she met my father at an art gallery and he had been staring at one of her paintings and


    they instantly clicked. Sadly after she died, my father got rid of all her paintings but my grandfather


    saved this one. He said it had too much meaning to be thrown away and I guess he was right” Heather


    nodded slowly then turned to the painting.


    “Kiara would die If she saw this. She loved art so much and could probably decipher what this painting


    was trying to say. When she gets back, she has to see this” Levi smiled.


    “She likes art? I don’t know why I never saw her as an artsy kind ofdy”


    “It’s because of her love for art that she decided to take up Interior designing. It was a form of art to


    her” He nodded slowly.


    “Thank you, Heather” She turned to him with a raised eyebrow.


    “Why are you thanking me?” He turned to her with a smile.


    “Because I know exactly what to do on my first date with Kiara now”


    After their conversation, Zane and Kiara both decided that they were going to try and forget about the


    past for now and just enjoy their Vacation. Whatever happens in the future, happens.


    “Do you still want to go back to the penthouse?” Zane questioned as he caressed her cheek.


    “You wanted to take me somewhere?” Zane nodded.


    “I know a certain person who has always been obsessed with art and castles so…”


    “No way, are we going to the Versailles castle?!” She squealed and he chuckled before nodding.


    “I guess you do know ces here” She turned to him with a giddy look on her face.


    “Are you kidding? The Versailles castle has been one of my dream ces to visit ever since I learnt


    about it. I won’t deny the fact that it slipped my mind that it was in Paris. What are we doing here then?


    Let’s go!” Zane chuckled.


    “We don’t have to rush. The tour won’t start without us so rx” She frowned.


    “Why are we wasting time here when I could be exploring the garden over there?” She gasped lightly at


    how abruptly he leaned his face towards hers.


    “Do you know what’s more fun than Exploring a Garden?” She bit her lips unconsciously when his eyes


    trailed Down to her lips.


    “Wh… what?” He reluctantly raised his eyes and they locked in with hers.


    “Exploring me” She froze as her eyes widened.


    “Zane…” He chuckled lightly then ced a kiss on her lips before moving away from her and leaning


    back on his seat.


    “Now that I’ve seeded in making you flustered, we can leave” She stared at him in disbelief as he


    called the driver back in.


    “You are unbelievable” She grumbled with a pout as the car drove off. Zane turned to her with a tilt of


    his head.


    “Don’t be saddened, my love. My body belongs to you so you can explore it whenever you want” She


    gasped with her eyes wide then pped him on the shoulder.


    “Can you be shameless for once? There’s someone else in the car now” She muttered as her cheeks


    turned redder than before.


    “Did you hear anything I just said, Mateo?” Zane questioned the driver without taking his eyes off Kiara.


    “No Alpha Zane, Not a word”

    “See?” See what? He has obviously heard but was just scared of Zane. Honestly, she was


    dumbfounded at that point.


    “Let’s just go before you ruin my mood” She muttered then was about to turn towards the window when


    Zane grabbed her face gently, turning her attention back to him.


    “What?” She questioned with a frown and he sighed.


    “Don’t frown. I was just ying with you. Since when did you get so serious, hmm?” He murmured then


    ced kisses on her frown lines, her lips and practically any spot he could get his lips on on her face.


    “Don’t you know if you keep frowning? You’d get ugly?” He murmured yfully as he pulled away and


    stared at her face. She scoffed.


    “So what? If I get ugly, you won’t want to be with me anymore? Or you won’t want to kiss me anymore?


    If that’s the case then I’ll keep frowning till I look like a troll” He raised an eyebrow.


    “Well at least you’d still be my troll, My beautiful troll, Kiara. That has a nice ring to it, don’t you think?”
