Chapter 94. His Purpose
Prince Vincent
"This is nice!"
Alex exclaimed while his eyes move around the area, his gaze directed afterwards on the women standing at the front desk. Caleb on the other hand took in the atmosphere with the same attitude as me. At least this place is better than the other hotels in this City.
There's nothing unusual about how the hotel looked, except maybe for the fact that it's owner or that the hotel manager is someone who belonged to me. Looking back from that very first time I saw her, I have to say that I've got a strong feeling that we have a connection.
Although she was young back then, while I'm a teen wolf without a mate and is troubled by the relationship I have with my father. That did not hinder my emotions from slowly building.
Hotel Blanca is written on the front side of the white building which is consisted of fifty floors that stands in the heart of the City. The wide name with glittering lights all over, attracts the people into its fancy decorated wide entrance hall.
"Good evening, do you have a reservation sir?"
The smiling face of the hotel receptionist puts me back to reality. We were already standing at the front desk taking a final evaluation of the place.
"Yes please."
I began to explain slowly the deal I had with someone I spoke on the phone the other day. The receptionist nodded and found out I had a reservation in one of their VIP rooms on the top floor. While Caleb and Alex is on one floor lower.
"Prince Vincent, we could all stay together on the same floor. Why do we have to stay far away from you. Are you serious about this set up?"
Caleb deeply frowned while looking at me he's not in favor of the idea.
"Yes! I'd like to have some privacy on the VIP floor, so I want you guys to stay on the lower floor to check on everyone that goes up."
"Come on Caleb! I don't see any problem with this set up."
Alex grinned from ear to ear, some of the women are already having their eyes on him. He's more interested with flirting than listening to us, I exhaled softly and waited for the receptionist to hand over the card key.
"Your luggage will be sent upstairs in your room Mister Langston. Thank you so much for waiting, here is your key."
I nod my head formally to the receptionist while I held the key in my hand. "I'll go ahead Caleb, you know what to do. And Alex, don't forget why we are here."
"It's alright Prince Vincent I'll remind him every now and then."
Caleb smile while Alex groans in disagreement. I have to keep them at least a little bit further away to give us privacy. I needed to know how she feels when i told her the truth and I don't need the presence of my two buddies for this matter.
I walk fast and press the elevator button not far from the hotel receptionist, a hotel bell boy has already taken the small luggage that I brought. He was quick to follow on the direction that I'm heading.
Caleb and Alex both send me their last look when the elevator closes and Alex started talking to the receptionist. My mind is completely taken away from the current scene, it is occupied with her image dancing inside my head. I couldn't wait to talk to her.
The bellboy held my small luggage bag and waited for me to walk out of the elevator first when we reach the fiftieth floor.
"Thank you, I'll take it from here."
He looked at me with a curious gaze when I wave my hand to decline his assistance to my bedroom. I handed a few dollar bills to tip him off and make him leave while I pull the small luggage away from him.
"Oh! Thank you sir."
His smile turned wider while accepting the cash from my hand. I'm not a usually generous tipper but this time I wanted to be alone and think of a better idea to lure the hotel manager into my room.
The air surrounding the room's floor is filled with a scent of flower that I could not be mistaken. Freesia, a faint scent I recognized as hers from a long time ago. But it wasn't as potent as it is now. Maybe because of the years that passed which made her bloom into a complete woman.
I sniffed the air and took in most of her scent, the aroma filled my lungs and body all the way to my stomach and veins. My hand almost tremble as I search for the card key in my pocket to open the door of my room.
Wide and luxurious from the ceiling to the floors, fully carpeted while the glass wall allows a wonderful peek of the view from outside. The King size bed looks warm and accomodating, on the other side a set of luxurious couch and a very clear glass table gives me the idea of taking the hotel manager's companion for the night.
Without any hesitation, I dialed the front desk number which registered as number one in the phone directory.
"Good evening, this is Alice of the front desk. How may I help you?"
I remembered her voice a few minutes ago, she sounded friendly and professional.
"Hi, I'd like to know if I could order the most expensive wine in this hotel?"
"Oh! Of course sir, actually I should not be the one you are calling as we have the number of the hotel's restaurant on the directory but it's alright. Would you be needing anything else aside from the wine?"
"No, that would be all and thank you. I do have another request that if you can guarantee that you will help me, then I would not hesitate to have you rewarded generously."
The gasp of the woman from the other line made me smirk. "Let me know your other request sir and I may do all I can to make it possible."
"Thank you, I appreciate that you are glad to help me. I'd like to speak with your hotel manager Miss Ashley Snipes. It's something urgent and important."
The line went silent for a couple of seconds. "I'm so sorry sir but Miss Ashley has already retired for the night. She is not accepting anymore duty."
"Oh please, it's not a duty. I'm not gonna be asking for her assistance, I just need to have a word with her. Our families are friends since we were young and I knew her parents too. Please I insist that you asked her to speak to me even for just a few minutes then I'll be happy to wait."
I change my voice from normal into the Alpha tone. The woman on the other line gasp again before she agreed to my request.
"Alright Mister Langston, I will make a phone call to our hotel manager and convince her to talk to you."
I close my eyes and smiled in the air before I put the phone down. Now I just have to wait for her to come to me.
As I paced back and forth inside the hotel room, my mind went back to the few years I have endured. Those years I've set aside the idea of having a mate and focusing on my strength, building the resilience and power.
