Chapter 64 

I lay in bed listening to the breathing from Everest. It was so nice to finally be back home and in our own bed again. I know it was only a week, but to me, it was a week from hell. I was so very thankful for the safety of Everest and more importantly, our Kingdom. 

I rolled over and sat up on the side edge of the bed. I yawned and stretched as I stood up. I walked over to the window and pulled back the curtain. The sun was beginning to rise, and the sky still clung to the darkness that lingered from the night. Where the sun was rising in the sky held hues of orange and pink. It was beautiful to witness and for the first time in forever I took in the beauty of it all, 

I ended up taking a hot shower and got ready for the day. I walked to the side of the bed, where Everest was still snoozing away, leaned down and placed a soft kiss on his forehead. He stirred under my touch, and that brought a smile to my lips. He still had a week of healing ahead of him as i handled manners from the war. We were still having to weed through the ones who were forced and had no other option, over the evil that lingered through Dexter’s men. 

Then that left us with Dexter and what to do with him. Brent has yet to say anything to his brother or go see him. As much as I hated the situation Brent was in, I knew that he would do what was best for all of our people collectively. My phone buzzed on my nightstand and I walked over to it and read who it was from. The text was from Miranda. 

Miranda: “Hey. Good morning. I hope that I am not waking you up. I tried waiting as long as I could before texting you.” 

Me: “Morning, I am awake. Meet me in my office in ten minutes. / I have one of the workers bring up breakfast. Claire and Amber should join us in decisions later in the morning regarding Brennon’s men. It seems we have a long day ahead of us. 

Miranda: “Okay I will see you in a few minutes. I am grabbing some coffee, want some?” Me: “Of course. Two creams and four sugars. Thanks!” 

I walked to my office and called down to the kitchen to have breakfast brought up to us. I ordered sausage and egg biscuits with cheese, bacon, egg and cheese biscuits, hash browns, different fruits, water, and orange juice. I opened the filing cabinet where I kept a detailed photo album of sorts that had information on everyone who was in the prison cells.
