**Chapter 39**
A month had slipped by since the exam, and then, one fateful morning, I opened my email to find an acceptance letter waiting for me. The moment I read those words, I realized I was headed to a university, not just any college. And, of course, it was in London—a place that held a world of possibilities.
Fast forward to a week later, and I was buzzing with excitement and nerves, ready to embark on this new adventure.
“Christopher will still be your driver,” Kross announced as we all squeezed into the elevator, my bags in tow.
I craned my neck back to catch a glimpse of him behind me. His gaze was fixed on me, though all I could really see was the strong line of his jaw.
“He’s coming with me to London?” I asked, curiosity lacing my voice, even as my neck began to protest the awkward angle.
“Yes,” he replied simply.
Kade, standing beside me, placed a reassuring hand on the back of my neck, gently nudging me back to a more comfortable position. “Don’t do that. You might break your neck,” he said, his tone half-serious, half-teasing.
Axel, ever the jokester, ran his fingers lightly along the back of my neck and shot a smirk at Kade. “Our little rise isn’t so fragile, Kadey,” he teased, and I couldn’t help but laugh.
For the past month, life in the mansion had been a delightful blend of warmth and playful banter. There was still a palpable sexual tension hanging in the air, but it had transformed into something more subtle, a quiet undercurrent that everyone seemed to accept without question.
Every day, we gathered for breakfast and dinner, a routine that had woven us closer together. I had learned so much about Kross, Kade, and Axel—well, everything except the true nature of what they were. But honestly, I had reached a point where I didn’t feel the need to pry any longer.
The elevator doors slid open, revealing the garage, where Christopher was already waiting for us.
“Good morning, ma’am,” he greeted me with a polite nod as he took my bag from my hands. I returned his smile, feeling a warmth towards him.
“Hey, Chris. Looks like you’re going to be stuck with me for quite a while,” I joked lightly.
He flashed a small, genuine smile in return. “That’s not so bad. Your company isn’t so bad,” he replied, and I could sense a newfound ease in his demeanor.
I turned to head towards the car but suddenly realized that Kross, Kade, and Axel weren’t following. I glanced back, surprised to see them still in the elevator, their eyes fixed on Christopher as he meticulously arranged my bags in the trunk.
“Guys?” I called out, a hint of confusion in my voice.
“In all the years I’ve known Christopher, I’ve never seen him smile,” Kross remarked, still observing my driver with an incredulous expression.
“Or even heard him say more than two words,” Axel chimed in, his tone teasing yet curious.
Christopher cleared his throat, a hint of embarrassment creeping into the air, but he remained silent. I turned to look at him again; he had changed. He was speaking more freely now, and for the first time, I noticed just how handsome he was. His buzz cut accentuated his strong features, and those striking light blue eyes were captivating. Tall and muscular, with a scar under his jaw that somehow added to his rugged charm, I thought having him around in school wouldn’t be so bad after all.
“I don’t like that look you’re giving him, Rosette,” Axel growled, suddenly glaring at Chris as if he were a rival.
“Neither do I,” Kade added, his expression mirroring Axel’s disapproval.
“Maybe we should get her a new driver,” Kross suggested, his voice dripping with sarcasm.
“Someone less good-looking and all muscles,” Axel agreed, crossing his arms defiantly.
I rolled my eyes at their antics as I walked toward the car, but Kross’s voice halted me in my tracks. “You ride with us.”
“See you at the airport, Chris,” I called out over my shoulder as I approached their vehicle.
“Sure you don’t want to see your mom before you leave?” Kade asked, opening the car door for me with a gentlemanly flourish.
That question hit me like a cold splash of water, instantly dampening my spirits. “I sent a text,” I replied, trying to brush it off.
Axel snorted as he slid into the front seat. “A text, sweetheart. Not even a call. Naughty girl,” he teased, raising an eyebrow at me.
“If she doesn’t want to see her, then she shouldn’t feel obligated,” Kross interjected, settling into the driver’s seat. I shot him a grateful smile, and he nodded back, a silent understanding passing between us.
The drive to the airport was filled with playful chatter and light-hearted bickering—mostly between me and Axel, who seemed to thrive on teasing me about everything and nothing all at once. Before long, we arrived, but not at the bustling airport terminal. Instead, we drove straight to their private jet. Yes, you heard that right—a private jet. These people were rich beyond my wildest dreams.
Christopher was already waiting for us when we arrived, and we all climbed aboard together, settling into the plush seats, my heart racing with anticipation. London, here I come.
***
As soon as I stepped off the jet, the cold air of London hit me like a brisk slap. That was the first thing I noticed; the chill was palpable.
“Should have warned you,” Kross murmured, stepping up behind me and wrapping his coat around my shoulders. His scent enveloped me, warm and comforting. “Forgive me. It’s colder here than it is back home.”
I glanced up at him, grateful for his kindness. “Thanks.”
His gaze flickered to my lips for a brief moment before he quickly looked away, clearing his throat. “Come on. Let’s get moving.”
There were cars already waiting for us, and we quickly piled in, driving away into the city. My face was glued to the window as we passed by the sights. This was my first time in another country, and I was completely enthralled by how different everything looked and felt.
After what felt like an eternity of driving—two hours, to be precise—we finally arrived at my new apartment.
“You’re joking,” I exclaimed, stepping out of the car, my eyes wide with disbelief. “This is my house? Just mine?! What on earth do I need such a big house for?!”
“We should have gotten a smaller one?” Kross suggested, looking genuinely puzzled by the idea of a smaller residence.
It was a full house, far larger than I had expected. I had envisioned myself living among other students, not in a place like this.
“Campus is only about twenty minutes away from here,” Axel informed me as he and Kade carried my bags inside, while I stood there, utterly awestruck.
It was a bit overwhelming, but I found myself liking it. I had my own space, my own sanctuary, and the thought of not having to bump into anyone else was oddly comforting. I walked over to Kross and hugged him from behind, feeling a rush of affection.
He froze for a moment, his steps halting as if he were taken by surprise.
“This is too much,” I whispered, “but I love it. You three are spoiling me.”
He scoffed lightly, dropping the bag he was holding and turning to embrace me in return. God, he smelled incredible.
“We do our best,” he said softly, running his fingers through my hair.
I pulled away, already eager to explore my new home, but the looks on Kade and Axel’s faces stopped me in my tracks.
“What?” I asked, confusion knitting my brow.
“Kross is the only one that gets a hug, huh?” Axel pouted, crossing his arms like a child deprived of a treat.
I rolled my eyes playfully but walked over to them, first wrapping my arms around Kade. My face nestled into his neck, and he held me tightly, his embrace warm and reassuring.
Kade and I shared a bond that didn’t require words. He was a man of few spoken ones, yet in our silence, so much was communicated.
As I pulled away from him, I turned to Axel. He pulled me close, nuzzling his nose against my hair, and then he leaned back slightly to plant a quick kiss on my lips. “There. All good now,” he declared, a satisfied grin on his face.
But this kiss… it lingered in the air, leaving a flutter in my chest.
We stepped inside the house, and it was just as beautiful as I had imagined. The cozy warmth of the decor made it feel like a home even before I had settled in.
“This is beautiful,” I breathed, taking it all in.
“I chose the colors, by the way,” Axel felt it necessary to inform me, a hint of pride in his voice.
I chuckled lightly. “Of course you did.” My gaze wandered around, and then I realized one person was missing. “Oh, where’s Chris?”
“His house is just a stone’s throw from here,” Kross answered, his tone casual. “He’s gone to settle in.”
“Why can’t he stay here?” I asked, genuinely curious. “I mean, it’s a pretty big house.”
All three men froze, turning to look at me as if I had just uttered a forbidden question.
Conclusion
As I stood in the doorway of my new home, surrounded by the warmth of friendship and the thrill of new beginnings, I felt a profound sense of gratitude wash over me. The journey to this moment had been filled with uncertainty and longing, yet here I was, embraced by the laughter and camaraderie of Kross, Kade, and Axel. Their playful banter and genuine affection had woven a tapestry of connection that made me feel less alone in this vast world. The acceptance letter had been a catalyst, but it was the bonds I had formed with these three that truly made me feel like I belonged. With each hug and teasing remark, I realized that I was not just stepping into a new city; I was stepping into a new chapter of my life, where love and friendship would guide me.
Yet, amidst the excitement, a flicker of concern tugged at my heart as I thought of Christopher. His transformation from a silent presence to a man who smiled and engaged with us was a testament to the power of connection, but the question of his place in my life lingered. The hesitance in Kross, Kade, and Axel’s expressions when I mentioned Christopher hinted at an unspoken tension that I had yet to understand. As I took a deep breath, ready to explore this beautiful house and the city beyond, I knew that I would have to navigate the complexities of my feelings for both my friends and my driver. London was a city of possibilities, and I was determined to embrace every moment, even the ones that challenged my heart.
