K-Brothers And The Little Maid

Leigh-Ann’s POV

I strolled around the estate wishing Ace could bump out of nowhere so I could tell him I wasn’t interested in the dinner. Gosh, I felt so worked up.

If I am to say, Stiles was right. I had no right whatsoever to neglect my position as a maid whether Kael was there or not. He must’ve felt disappointed in me. And to think of the audacity I had telling him of my dinner with Ace.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

“Leigh-Ann!” Alejandra called out breaking into my thoughts. I heaved a sigh of relief as I watched her get down from the car. She had gone for some photo shots at the studio.

I walked towards her and noticed she had been smiling all along. “You’re back”

“I’ve got good news for you, come” I followed her into her room which was just like Kael’s. It was big and exquisite.

“Have you ever thought of being a model?” She asked once we had settled down.

“A model??? Hell… Hell no”

She smiled and took a sip from her drink which had been served by a maid. “Why? You look so perfect for it”

I shook my head and she chuckled. A model??? Why’s she asking me that?

“You’re so beautiful Leigh, I mean everyone says so, even my mom”

My mouth dropped immediately. Everyone including her mum? How… How come?

“Remember the pictures we took at the studio, I forwarded it to the National Gallery and everyone loved it, especially yours”

I gulped hard and then picked up my glass of juice which had been served. My throat suddenly felt dry and I needed something chill down there.

“Just think of yourself as a model Leigh, I would love you to become one but that’s if you decide to.”

“A dinner with Ace? Oh how cute!” Alejandra squealed. I had decided to tell her about her cause it seemed she was much closer to Kael. I could use a little help from her.

“Not anymore. I don’t think I can go for it, besides, Sir Kael has a game tonight which needs my service” I replied dryly.

“Heard the game was canceled. My dad is supposed to be present too cause he loves Lacrosse games but he left for an official appointment”

Oh, so the game is canceled, I should be happy, right?

“Come on, Kael wouldn’t mind as long as you told him. Did you?” She said and asked while I nodded.

“Yes, I did. He wished me a happy dinner in advance but I feel he’s disappointed”

Alejandra laughed, startling me. “Who? Kael? Why would he be disappointed?”

She laughed again and it made me nervous. Did I say something funny?

“Come on sweetheart, Kael’s not that kind of person. He’s a good guy and if he told you to go for the dinner then trust me, he means it”

“If he didn’t want you to, he’ll tell you bluntly, and besides, Kael’s got far more pressing issues to get disappointed over some dinner you chose to attend” Alejandra added.

Somehow, I felt relieved. Maybe because I was hearing this from someone who has been with Kael and had known him all her life.

“So, have you got a dress? I can imagine you and Ace being shown on TV, celebrity Channel” She said and laughed as my eyes widened in shock.

What??? We’ll… I’ll be shown on TV? Celebrity Channel? The fuck!

Kael’s POV

I got down the stairs with my eyes glued to my phone. Pictures of Leigh-Ann and Alejandra were all over the net with Leigh being tagged as the “Ash model”

Ash model… I smirked and looked up. A guard stood with his head bent but that wasn’t what caught my attention. He held this large design package and a bouquet. It caught my attention cause I called out to him being overly curious.

“They’re for a lady here named Leigh-Ann” I nodded then picked out the card that was stuck in the flowers.

•~ Roses are red

Perfect wines are red and

sweet but you are the

Sweetest.

A~•

” A ” As in Ace.

“Hey, what’s that?” I suddenly heard Alejandra’s voice. I turned and watched her approach us “Beautiful flowers… for who?”

I didn’t want her to see I had read the card but she caught me before I could think of hiding it. It was wrong to read someone else’s card.

“From ‘A’?” She asked with a puzzled look then turned to me “who sent the flowers?”

“I don’t know. He might” I said and nudged at the guard. She turned immediately “For who?”

“A lady named Leigh-Ann”

Alejandra squealed then got the package from him along with the flowers I held. “You read her note, I’ll tell her” she joked and walked off while I laughed.

Everything looked romantic and I sure liked it. Ace was one freaking guy who was a crack hand at romance.

I shook my head. Romance was definitely not for me.

Leigh-Ann’s POV

“And finally, a lil blush at the corner of your cheeks” Alejandra announced, and finally, she was done.

I looked at the image that stared back at me in the mirror and my mouth dropped. Was it just me or I was certainly dreaming?

“OMG, you’re so beautiful Leigh-Ann”

I smiled sheepishly trying to hide my nervousness. A package had arrived earlier from Ace.

A lovely evening gown and matching accessories with glass heels to match. He also sent flowers which blew me off. I’ve never been treated to all those kinds of things and as he did, it felt weird.

“Remember, Golden Hills. That’s where you’ll tell Ace to take you to” Alejandra reminded for the umpteenth time. Okay, Golden Hills.

She said it was the best and she would also be there for dinner with her date. I couldn’t say no to her cause I felt safe. She was gonna be there too.
