Chapter 41 - ALEX REVEALS THAT DIANDRA IS HIS WIFE

Taking up the catalog and rest it aside, setting his alarm for five then he relax and lie next to her.

'This feels so perfect, I was longing for this day where we could sleep in the same bed without any fear or argument.'

Closing his eyes satisfied that his prayers and desires has been answered, even if it is for just two hours.

Maybe she will change her mind concerning returning to the cottage, but he knows he must find a way to try and convince her of his love though matter what.

'He can't give up on this relationship, he love her to much, and he was scared of losing her.'

With the thought of her friends, 'But who is the little one, and what part he has to play in her life?

Alex knew he never paid much attention to her in all those years they were separated, but now he loves her and want to know everything, but she have concealed so many secrets.

If only she will reveal it to him, he was ready to face anything as long as she is with him.'

Opening his eyes, Alex heard the calling of his name, thinking, 'He must have dozed of seeing it was almost five.

She was snuggled upon him, hugging his hand and his shoulder was her pillow.

And his right hand was on top of her waist, whispering, "Lord, why can't it remain this way?"

Hearing Johnny calling him, Alex ease himself off the bed and walk with the catalog to give Johnny.

"Mr. Alvin, Diandra like this cream and brown curtain, but you will have to select the others, I have given you the job in the first place."

"Yes Sir, how is she now?"

"Resting!"

"Then, I will see you tomorrow Sir."

Locking the gate then the door, strolling through the house viewing the work they had completed.

'They have done so much extra work with her supervision, but will they complete this work by Friday? Lord, I only hope there is no setback.'

Sitting on the couch, Alex believe it is time to make some changes. The men are very mature and dependable, it is time to give them more responsibilities and ease his workload.

He realize that now is the time he should spend more time with her, holding her in his arms feel just right, but now he has to fit into her schedule and earn her trust, she still doesn't trust me.'

Calling Melissa, Alex instructed her to bring to him all the files of the Sergeants and the rooster to his home.

Both working in the Library where Alex set up his desk, knowing the men still has something to complete in his study and Diandra things are still in there.

While Melissa types the letters Alex calls the Sergeants, instructing them of their new responsibilities.

Stopping her typing when he rests down the phone and steps out of the office. Following him with her gaze wondering, 'What was wrong and why did he stop suddenly?"

Then the thought came, recalling he once asked her to order lunch and send home, he said, 'He had a friend staying while they work in the house.'

Stepping out from behind the typewriter, unable to believe what she was seeing.

With her mouth open staring at the beautiful woman, 'Who is she, he had gone to dinners with many beautiful women, but this one surpassed them all. '

When Alex hold her hand and he said, "I want you to meet my personal Secretary, she runs the office and the firm, "Melissa meets Diandra, my wife."

"Hello, Madam, nice to meet you."

"Same here," notices she hold Alex's hand and lead him into the kitchen, "Did you have to say I am your wife?"

Holding her face, "Sweetheart, I believe it is time the people know the truth, honey, when you sleep in my arms today I felt so complete."

Opening her eyes staring at his face, "I did what?"

"Yes, sweetheart we slept in each other arms."

"This cannot be happening."

"But honey, it already did."

"How could you allowed this to happen?"

"That decision was taken completely out of my hands."

"What do you mean by that Alex?"

"It is very simple, honey when you fell asleep you clamp down my hand, and you was so comfortable.

I could not disturb your rest, but no harm is done, if you feel it will complicate your life forget all about it."

Turning away Diandra mutters, "What is really happening to me, my life is getting tangled up, this is something I did not expect, and I need to get some fresh air."

Alex just looks at her walk away, then return to get his work completed. Thinking to himself, 'I shouldn't have said anything, but she needs to know how I feel.'

Returning to the library, noticing Melissa looking at him, "Are you alright Sir?"

"I am fine thanks so let's continue we have much to complete."

"Sir, I never knew you were married."

"No one does Melissa."

"But Sir, she is so beautiful."

"Yes, I know."

"Then why did you date other women when you have such a beautiful wife?"

"It is a long story, and I can assure you that she was never the faulty one." Ignoring her other questions he continue making his calls.

Diandra returns to the kitchen after half an hour wondering what time he started to work.

Fixing some sandwiches and place them on a small platter, then pour two glasses of juice resting it in a tray with the sandwiches and take it to the library.

"Alex, didn't you say there was someone you had to go and relief."

"Yes, I did, but I called another officer to fill in for me."

"It is already seven, don't Melissa have a family to go to?"

"Yes she does, and her shift will be over in the next half an hour."

"Then I will leave you to it."
