Chapter 14 - Shopping together

Aurelius expected her outburst for a while but it came late, he smiled at her as he picked up a pack of all purpose flour staring at it curiously.

"Mad? I don't think I am. What is the problem this time? Aurelius asked as he threw the flour into the shopping cart, he had planned to prepare something weight gaining for her at night. Freya couldn't help but frown as she stared at him shopping while he listened to her.

"Why did you claim me as your woman in front of all those people? Huh? We aren't even engaged for crying out loud" Freya said, when Aurelius had said that earlier, she wanted the ground to open up and swallow her instantly but that only happened in movies and novels.

"You are mine after all, whether I claim you or not. I don't think it matters. Now, cam you stop whining and get back to shopping, thought you said you needed something's?" Aurelius asked tired of her ranting. Freya humped as she walked away from the food section.

She looked at her hair in one of the glasses and noticed it was getting even more tough than before. After locating the hair section,b she selected out some products for her hair, placing it in the basket as she moved to the snacks department. Since Aurelius had asked her to shop, she would go all out, getting every single thing she wanted.

She started looking around the snacks department. She started dumping almost every brand into the cart, starting from gummies, to potato chips, to candies and so on. By the time she was done, she couldn't even push the cart.

"Aurelius!" She yelled as she tired moving the cart but it wouldn't budge.

Aurelius who was still picking out his vegetables heard her voice and immediately stopped, he held his gun in his hands as he approached the spot he heard the scream from, but what he saw next made him want to knock Freya.

"What in the world's name is this?" Aurelius asked as he face palmed, Freya looked at him, knowing she guilty as she chuckled.

"You told me to shop and told me I could get whatever I want in here. So...." She said as she gestured to the pile of snacks. Aurelius felt like fainting right now, he turned to an attendant who was at the verge of dying from laughter to come forward.

"Just pack this up and calculate the bill, then send it back to the Villa" Aurelius said as the attendant nodded running off to call for assistance. He grabbed Freya by the arm pulling her with him.

By the time they got back to the Villa, Freya was tired and wanted to go upstairs for a nap. "Don't sleep for too long, someone would come up to get you for dinner" Aurelius reminded her and she just nodded as she made her way upstairs.

"Bring this to the kitchen, Piper" Aurelius said as he stared at the girl suspiciously but he said nothing about the way she was gawking at him, he knew he was one fine piece of meat and he'd never deny anyone the sight.

Cocky much.

Freya got up to her room, falling on the bed tiredly. She closed her eyes going over the things she had done today.

What was truly going on with her head?

The plan was to NOT fall in love but she could feel her self resistant slowly slipping through her fingers. She covered her face as she blushed.

Aurelius had publicly claimed her his woman and had given her that large mall to manage. At least looked at for a job was out of her list now.

Freya didn't know when her eyes slowly closed and like that, she fell asleep.

"Mummy, where is Colton?" Freya asked as she took of her shoes walking into their house. Her mother, Jane, looked even more pretty than recently.

She had a very curvy body, long dark red locs, gold coloured eyes and was strict as hell but still a caring mother. Now, Freya is currently 13 and her brother should be around 15.

"Don't you both go to the same school? Why come and start asking me, huh?" Jane asked as she patted her small daughter's head.

"But momma, I didn't see him at school today, like at all and all his friends too haven't seen him" Freya said and Jane squinted her eyes, she didn't want to believe her obedient and handsome son had skipped school.

"Don't worry, go upstairs" Jane said as Freya nodded, giving her mother a kiss on the cheek before running up to her room.

Jane grabbed her phone as she dialed Colton's line, it rang for a while but nobody picked up, she scrunched her face as she called again.

"Sorry, the number you've called is switched off" Jane ran her finger's through her hair letting out a shaky sigh. She immediately dialed her husband's number explaining the situation to him.

"I'm on my way darling, just take deep breaths and try calling the school" Joseph said before hanging up. Jane did as he told, she took deep breath's as she dialed Colton's school.

"Hello ma'am, I was about calling you. I'm at the hospital now and I'm sorry to say this but Colton is dead. He got hit on his way the a cake factory and he kept calling mum before he died" The principal said with a deep breath, "I'm sorry for your loss"

"Y-you must be joking...dead! My baby isn't dead, bring my baby back or I'll rip that school apart" Jane yelled as tears rolled down her eyes.

Freya heard her mother's scream and ran downstairs, running to her mother's side to see her in tears. "Mum, are you okay?" Freya asked as she touched her mother's arm but her mother just pushed her to the side, flinging her cell phone right at her.

"Don't fucking touch me Freya" Jane yelled as she buried her face in her palms, slowly crying.
