Chapter 17 – The Angel Inside The Cabinet (Sky‘s POV) When Angela left the study room and closed the door, I opened my eyes and walked to the coffee table where she placed the tray. I took the tray to the balcony and sat on the metal decorated chair to enjoy the coffee and sandwich. 

I smirked as I sipped the coffee, tasting how different it was from the usual coffee Elenita or my secretary would prepare for me. I hate to admit it, but this is how I want my coffee. I tap the table with my fingers, allowing them to dance near the plate as I recall how we got crazy last night. 

The truth was Frank was adamant at first in taking us to a wedding officiant last night because he knew we were drunk, and we had no idea who the girl I was with the previous night, but we were too crazy about each other. I was too drunk that if she didn‘t stop me, I wanted Frank to get out of the car just to indulge my desire to claim the innocent woman with me. I had to threaten my driver that I would take his scholarship and financial support if he would not grant her birthday wish, which was to be married to the Mighty Sky. 

I propped my elbows on the table and massaged my forehead, disbelieving myself at how stupid I got last night. Closing my eyes, I tried to recall the beautiful woman with me last night who made me crazier when I found out I was her first. I inhaled, remembering her intoxicating scent, sweet and delicate. 

The sound of my phone ringing startled me, snapping me from a dream and bringing me back to the present. I sighed, reading the name of the caller. “Dr. Greene,” I said, hoping to hear good news from our family doctor. “Still awake, Sky?” He chuckled as if we were friends. Remembering how he showed interest in Angela annoyed me, but it was less of my concern now. I will deal with it later with her. 

“Have you heard of a sky sleeping, Uncle David?” I asked, calling him ‘uncle‘ although we were not related. The Greene has been a family friend for who knew how long that I didn‘t want to dig the history now. “Yeah, I know, but I just called to tell you that Steve already woke up and was looking for Angela,” he informed me. “We‘ll be bringing him to a regular room tomorrow morning. What time will you come tomorrow? I want to be here when you and Angela come.” I curled my lip, annoyed at what he said, almost asking him why he had to see Angela again. Now, the irritation I was feeling was in the confusion of whether I hated that he was showing much interest in her or that my father was looking for her, not me. “I‘ll ask her later,” I answered. “But it‘ll definitely be morning, maybe before lunch.” 

“Okay. I‘ll clear my schedule in the morning,” he told me, causing my forehead to crease.
