Both the brothers clinked their wine glass.
"Its blood that tied us..Its blood we shall never shed.."
"Wow what's with the tag liner?"
"Its not a tag line Lea.Its the Kings' men motto."
"Really?"
"Yep..Do you like it?"
"Its cool."
"Let me show you something more interesting."

Both Xander and Xavier had a same tattoo bearing i.e a King's crown.
"Its beautiful."
She traced Xander's tattoo with her soft and delicate finger.
Xander swore loudly.
"Something  wrong?"
"When a woman touches her man so intimately in a public area,there will be consequences."Xavier pointed at Xander's lower half.
Azalea's face transformed into the most beautiful shade of pink.
"Xav..."Xander warned him.

"Uhmm..Why didn't I see this before?"Azalea queried more like speaking to herself.
"Maybe because your mind is occupied elsewhere whenever I am shirtless."
Xavier laughed loudly followed by Xander.
"Pervert."Azalea muttered.

Her phone rang loudly and she excused herself to pick it up.
"Hello..Mrs King?"
"Yes."
"I'm calling from NY Hospital.The specimen you gave matches with the drug found in Mr.King's blood."
"What?"She whispered.All blood drained from her face.
"Are you cer..certain?"
"100% Ma'am."
"Thank you.Do send me the hard copy of the report please."
"Will do Mrs King."

When she returned to her table both the men were watching her curiously.
"Hey,you look pale.Is everything
alright?
Who was there in the phone?"
"Umm..m..Its Gianna.Uh..she wanted to meet me."She lied.
"Right."Xander sounded unconvinced.
"Who is Gianna?Tell me,is she your cousin?Should I be lucky enough like Xander?"

Azalea offered him a weak smile.
"Gianna is her best friend.And yes she is very beautiful but definitely less than my wife."
"You're always such a charmer."Azalea tried to calm her troubled mind.
"No my darling.You're always such a stunner."
They were both lost in each others eye.Xander could feel Azalea's tension so he laid his hand on hers reassuringly.

"If I stay anymore here,I am going to puke.You two are..ugh.
I think I need to get laid."
"You do that."Xander advised.
Azalea hit him on his shoulder.
"Way to give your younger brother such an advice."She scolded Xander.

"Now,you listen,I'll set you up with my best friend only if you promise to be a gentleman and stop chasing everyone with a skirt."

"Hey,hey you wounded my heart Lea.I have a class.Besides,I don't run after every
woman.They follow me you know?"He said brushing imaginative dust from his lapel.

"Keep saying that,and you will end up alone.
Not a single woman out there wants a manwhore."
"Ouch."
Azalea shrugged nonchalantly.
"Man,keep your women in check.She deflates my confidence."Xavier replied sourly.
"Correction,I keep your big ego in line."
"Whatever."
Azalea smiled at him.
Now it was Xavier's phone that rang.
"Work,gotta go.You two have a nice time."
He kissed Azalea's cheek and sprinted outside the cafe.
