The Kingdom

Chapter 6

Cookie groaned flipping her head to the other side. She snuggled into the bed. It was soft and warm. She could hear the soft sound of waves, and the birds chirping, and......

Her head snapped up. It was cool in the room. A sliding door was open its white curtains flowing in the breeze. She squinted thinking she was dreaming. The smell of saltwater all around her. She sat up in the bed. Looking to her left there was no indication of someone else sleeping on that side.

She stood slowly taking in her surroundings. She was in a lavender purple mid thigh nightie. She didn't remeber putting it on. Stepping out the door she gasped. The scenery was beautiful. Birds flew high in the sky. Beach goers walked barefooted on the sandy shores. The island was vibrant with color. A few boats in few, laughing children running the the street.

Stepping inside she was on the search for her man. Slipping on the robe to cover most of her skin she lead herself out of the room. As she passed by doors none seemed to be inhabited. She soon picked up the sound of chatter and clinking plates.

Her hands glided down the dark oak railing as she descended the stairs. She slowly crept up on the unaware group. The house smelt of an assortment of breakfast.

"I swear mom sleeps like a bear in hibernation." Andre joked shoveling the delicious eggs into his mouth.

"Right! Like damn. Is she still breathing?" Hakeem chuckled. Lucious shook his head at his boys.

"Dad. Go wake her up." Andre suggested with a smirk.

"Funny Dre. Let my baby sleep. She'll get up when she's ready." Lucious spoke picking up his toast.

"Yeah we how she gonna react when she get up. I bet she jump you right there." Hakeem joked. Lucious chuckled rolling his eyes.

"Lets not discuss their martial business." Andre spoke jokingly gagging.

"Maybe that's why mom's extra dead. She not just drunk...." Hakeem joked wiggling his brows at his dad. Tiana smacked her lips giving him a shut up look.

"All I'm saying is. Mom is gonna miss breakfast." Hakeem added.

"When she gets up I'll order her something." Lucious responded. Hakeem whispered something into Tiana's ear making her giggle.

"Dad. Did you hit mom with one of Your freaky tricks? Is that why she still sleep? Just answer the question." Hakeem teased. Lucious rolled his eyes, but chuckled sipping his coffee.

"Tookie!" Bella shouted with food muffling her voice. Cookie had slowly crept around the corner.

"She's sleeping baby." Lucious spoke to his granddaughter. Bella grinned locking eyes with Cookie. She clapped her hands happily.

"Tookie!" She cheered again promting everyone to look where Bella was looking. As she walked to the table she made sure to hit Hakeem hard on the back of the head.

"OW Ma!" Hakeem grumbled. Cookie grinned walking up to her husband.

"What me and your father do is none ya." She stated. He smiled looking up at her, her hands resting on his chair.

She leaned over the back of his chair, her hands running down his chest. He tilted his head to look at her. Smiling she placed a deep kiss on his lips, he groaned into the kiss once her hands got lower and slid down his inner thighs.

"Ewww!" Andre exclaimed looking down at his plate. Cookie smirked gripping Lucious under the table making him jump. He cleared his throat pulling at the shirt on his body to cool his heating skin.

"Shut up boy." She snapped playfully slowly releasing her husband while giving a little rub, then trailing her hands back up his chest till thet rested on his shoulders. She kissed his check, then right behind his ear.
