The only wife I’ve ever had

After Harper left the room to finish her work on the other side of the castle. King Evander quickly change his clothes and made his bed.

Then he popped himself over to the Magnolia golf club to join all the other men on the eighth hole.

Upon on his inconspicuous arrival in a club golf cart ,with a new set of clubs from the pro shop. He found Jackson and Ethan had already fashioned a mini bar in the back of one of the golf carts and a couple of coolers.

The two young men stood in the shade mixing martini's for King Charles and Mr. Boyett while Alex was standing with a golf club in his hand ,watching the ball he had just hit fly through the air towards the little flag by the small hole in the ground.

Upon seeing his great grandfather arrive Alex smiled " I didn't know you liked playing golf."

" I do enjoy the game quite a bit ,actually I have been playing for years now. I played my first round at St. Andrews golf course about four hundred seventy years ago, been playing a few rounds a week every since." King Evander nonchalantly replied.

"Impressive ," Alex whistled

" And why would you say such a thing Alexander? I'm old ,I have been one of the first people to do many things this world has to offer. Much more impressive than being one of the first few people to play a round of golf." King Evander nonchalantly replied , not bring his head up from his swing to look at his great grandson.

" I can only imagine."Alex hummed shaking his head as he stood beside

his great grandfather ,waiting for him to join him for a drink over beside the makeshift mini bar with the others.

" Come let's gets a martini ,Jackson makes a damm good one." Alex said, placing his hand on his great grandfather's shoulder .

" Excellent, I think I'll try one." King Evander smiled ,as he walked beside his great grandson over to where the other men where standing sipping on martini's .

" I will get a couple more made, I was just waiting for the two of you to stop playing with your balls." Jackson teased

King Evander chuckled " that reminds me , I need to borrow a car tonight."

"Van aren't you going out with us tonight?" Jackson curiously ask, surprised by the sudden change of plans.

"I will be able to hang out with you for a while. But I need a to be someplace at nine o'clock." King Evander explained.

" Sounds like a hot date. " Alex grinned glancing up at Jackson reminded him of what he had said today about the little witch not excepting a date with his grandfather ,because he's a powerful king.

Jackson narrowed his eyes suspiciously wondering if his great grandfather had ever been out on a date with a middle class girl before. Other then the type of woman he could pay to entertain him for the evening.

" Tell me where your going, I may have a car to suit the occasion "

"There's certain cars for certain occasions " king Evander hummed

" Yeah Van, if this girl is who I think it is than I'm thinking maybe you need to leave the golf game to Alex and our new dads. And hang back here with me and Ethan so we can give you a few pointers for tonight "

King Charles cleared his throat, and tried to hold back his laughter. As he glanced over at Alex nodding towards the other golf cart. He mumbled ," I think my ball landed over by those trees maybe we should go look for it."

After Alex and two older gentlemen left Jackson leaned against the golf cart with his ankles crossed . Ethan made himself comfortable setting sideways in the passenger seat with one foot inside the golf cart and the other one resting on the ground. Both of them facing King Evander with devilish smiles on their face.

Jackson began questioning him like a criminal " Now tell me ,who is the hot date with?"

" The young lady I ask you about, who else?" king Evander obliged amused by his great grandsons behavior.

"Hum okay, I don't know how you pulled it off ,but I have a little Porsche 911 it'll be good for your date. Nice comfortable car for cruising around town in. "Jackson informed him

" Is the car I'm in really that important for a date?"

" Well hell yeah, Let me explained this to you my friend. Young girls like fast cars and this one is just the right amount of fast for this girl you're going out with. Now this brings me to another topic. The girl you're going out with is pretty dam young and she might get a little jumpy on you."

" How damm old is this chick anyway?" Ethan grinned.

" She's eighteen " king Evander deadpanned

" Why the hell do you want to baby set?"Ethan almost shouted"There's some hot gals down at the club. You don't need to waste your time on bull shit like taking them places. The only place they want to go is in your billfold."

" And I'm taking dating advice from you two? "King Evander questioned

" Okay , all kidding aside now, have you ever been out with a nice middle class chick?" Jackson ask

" Not since my wife died,"

Jackson narrowed his eyes stammering in disbelief " T.... the...The wife that I knew ." Thinking about his great grandmother.

" Of course, the only wife I've ever had."

" Wow!"Jackson exclaimed " That's been a fucking long time ago."
