Forever In The Past And Forever In The Future Chapter 106

Chapter 15

Musu tries to hide her disappointment at Bronx's reaction, even though we were both expecting it.

"You did a good job, Musu.We knew he would not say yes that easily,"

I place my hand on her forearm to comfort her, "It actually wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be."

She smiles weakly at my compliment, "Thank you, Lenora.I suppose you’re right.At least he didn’t break anything."

"Listen, we have half an hour before the Bronx’s message goes live.How about we take a break from work? I'l] ask Mrs.Miller to bring a snack and we will watch the broadcast together.We can get back to research after."

Her smile widens to genuine gratitude as we make our way to the love seat on the other side of the room.

I mind link the kitchen staff and ask for some snacks and drinks so Musu and I can relax for a bit.

Ever studious, Musu keeps doing research while we wait for our food and the announcement to be released, but came up with nothing.It isn’t long before one of the omegas brings us food and drinks so we can sit back and relax.I turn on the TV.

The talking head announces a rare statement directly from the CEO of MasonCo, Bronx Mason, in regard to his wife, Kas Mason.

A head shot that the PR team took of Kas shortly before she and Bronx got married flashes on the screen.

An involuntary smile crosses my face just by seeing her.

"Our Luna is so beautiful,"

Musu muses with a smile of her own.

"yeah, Bronx is a lucky guy, huh?" I giggle.

Musu follows suit, with a little elbow in my side.

The video of Bronx slides onto the screen.He is wearing a gray suit like Ashley recommended, but he is wearing a black shirt and black tie.His eye patch is light green to match his eye.

I recognize it immediately.

Kas gave it to him for Winter Solstice.I watch as my brother lets go of all pretence and speaks the way he did when he was in the military.

A glint in his eye and tone in his voice that I have not seen or heard since before he met Kas.

The deliberate, succinct, calm cadence in contrast to the unrelenting intensity of his glare and caustic severity of his words makes my jaw go slack.I look over at Musu, who is wide eyed with a tortilla chip sticking out of her mouth, mid-bite.

She has never known this side of him.

"Is this the Bronx Mason who Elder Henri warned me about?" she asks in a quiet voice, never taking her eyes off the screen.

Elder Henri served in the military with Bronx.

He knows exactly how dangerous my brother can be.

"Yeah...that’s him.He’s been gone for a while, but looks like he’s back,"

I clear my throat, "This explains his reaction to the video we showed him."

My cell phone dings with a text message.

Dad: Lenora.What the Hell is going on?

Lenora: Everything is okay now, Dad.I didn’t know that was what he recorded though

Dad: Tell your brother to call as soon as he can.Mom is ready to strangle him.Love you, sweetie

Lenora: Okay, Dad.Love you too.Mom and Dad have been in Norway for the last five weeks.We had called them when Kas went missing.

They offered to come home, but there was nothing we could think of that they could actually do to help, so we told them not to come.
