"Because of the babies."She whispered softly,averting her gaze from his.Now she's beginning to wonder if he knows the truth or not.Him doing all of this tells her he doesn't because if he had she doubts he would've done all of this for her."Alex...I need to tell you something.""Me too sweetheart."He was by her side so fast she hardly had time to blink, her face is cupped between his hands.She can see his wounds have been addressed. "Finally,I see things clearer now.This one hour has given me time to think and I've come to know I don't want to spend the rest of my life without you."Avery is so caught of guard that she could do nothing but glare at him in shock."What I have and feel for you I've never felt for any woman.Not even Paola.I never could understand my possessiveness towards you.Why it angers me when other men look or touch you.I never could understand why but the truth has been staring me in the face all this time.I was too blind to see it."That very same glow she'd seen i
Avery gently closed the door to the triplets bedroom,soon enough they gonna split up,except for the girls who'll be sharing a room.Alex is downstairs in the study busy with work she's in her last month of pregnancy so he has taken time off to be with her,to make sure she's on bed rest and not on her feet. Having him home is a godsend,she cannot imagine her life without him.She can't wait for the birth having to carry around all this weight is getting to her she cannot run after the triplets anymore from the moment they began walking they've done nothing but mischief.Taking care of them is a mission which is something that takes all of her energy,day in and day out.If it isn't for Alex lord knows she wouldn't have survived.It's amazing how his presence alone instill orders and the manner in which they listen to him when he talk is even more astonishing whereas when it comes to her it's a totally different story they always end up doing the opposite of what she says.Hence Alex had sa
Avery gazed down at her adorable babies,her biggest treasures not a day goes by that she doesn't thank the heavens for giving her,Alexis,Alexa and Alex.At one point in her life she'd thought she would never experience motherhood but sometimes faith has other plans for us.Giving them each one last kiss she took the baby monitor and made her way to the kitchen where she began the process of cleaning and sterilizing their bottles,for eight month olds they drink and eat alot not that she was complaining it shows her they are healthy. Halfway through she heard a loud knock on her door,she wonder who it could be so late.The second she opened the door she wished she hadn't,her sister was staring back at her she's the last person Avery expected since she stole her diamond necklace Avery was about to slam the door in her face when she shoved past her.Nicole's drug addiction has caused serious problems for her almost resulting in her losing the triplets.And to make matters worse her sister r
Who could it be?Who from her past is looking for her.She's finally start her life afresh she doesn't need a blast from the past to come and ruin it for her.A life she tried so hard to forget.A life she left behind.She wonder who the person is she had many rich clients whom she'd entertained privately but it never went further than touching the club had a strict policy about clients becoming too touchy.Only one man had ever intimately touched her and where had that got her,pregnant with a big fat check and all alone.Never again will she be so stupid as to listen to her head."Who was it?"She asked."I don't know.He didn't give his name.All he wanted to know was if you're still working there and if I knew where you were.""You didn't tell him."She said her voice on edge,she wonder who this mystery man was."I don't know anything."Nat said."You're really hiding yourself.""I'm not hiding.I have a new life and I don't want a daily remainder of my past.""We miss you at the club.Scott has
"Fight me.Deny me."He said stopping her."But you will come to me,and when you do you'll beg me to take you.On your knees."She shivered at the thought. "And this time around I'll have you tied to my bed,bending over with your legs spread while I fuck you from behind.Hard.."He hissed at the end.His words shouldn't affect her so much that she was close to shouting a loud yes. She dashed off before he could utter another provocative word that will have her agreeing to anything he says.The whole day she was on tenterhooks,she didn't even dare leave the sanctuary of the twins's room just in case he was around.She knows he had left hours ago but he has her nerves on high alert,so much so that any noise she hears makes her jump.She can't wait to get home,far away from him.The thought of their paths having to cross again later on didn't sit well on her.But all she has to do is stay upstairs and keep away from the activities that will take place downstairs.Margaret came to inform her that the
That sexy smirk was on his face,she felt like slapping it off."Oh y-you so full of yourself."She stuttered.Being this close to him she can smell his masculine male scent mingled with his shower gel,it toyed with her senses. Making her even more aware of the insistent ache between her legs.She needs to move away from him or else she'll find herself naked and bending over this bed with him buried deep inside her heat in a matter of seconds.She should've known he wasn't about to let her go so easily she thought when she tried to move away from him.The air around them thicken as they stared at each other,the outside world faded away.It was just them in this moment.Avery was spellbound.His hand went up to her hair,he undid her ponytail her hair tumbled down framing her face.Her scalp tingled as long fingers curled around her hair and tugged,exposing the curve of her neck to his hungry gaze. Her breathing became heavier as his head slowly descend towards her own. "There's nothing I'd lov
"No!"She fiercely shook her head."My gosh Nicole.What's the matter with you. Asking your younger sister to whore herself only for money.What happened to you."She dragged a hand through her hair."Brian put you up to this.Didn't he? Only he has such nasty thoughts going around in his head.The Nicole I know my sister would never ask such a thing from me.""You're right."Nicole whispered after a while."I'm sorry.It's just.."Avery walked over to her."Just what?""I'm pregnant Avery."She spoke so softly Avery wonder if she heard her right."What did you just say.""I'm pregnant.Brian doesn't know."Avery saw tears slid down her cheeks, gently she swiped Nicole's hair out of her face and tilt her chin to look at her. "Why haven't you told him.Is he putting his hands on you again.""Has he ever stopped."She threw back."Anyway that doesn't matter.I don't know who's the father Avery.One night I had used too much and popped some ecstasy too I ended up sleeping with three guys.""My God Nicole.T
"Love?"He repeated."Is something that will never cross my path.I'm too damaged for it.Broken."She came over to where he was standing at the window and cupped his cheek. "Don't say that.Everybody deserves to be loved no matter how broken they are.The past isn't our fault.Love heals all.Give it time.""Does it really.Is there something as love.Paola claimed she loved me but look what she did.We were together since forever,I actually believed it was love but I was fooling myself.""She's out there Alex.The one for you.All you have to do is wait for her or go look for her.""I don't run after women."His sister smiled."You'll sing a different tune when you find 'the one'.Mark my words."Catalina grabbed her bag on the couch."I have to go.Take care of yourself.""I will."He walked her to his door."I've decided to stay here in Vegas.For good.""That's great news.Now I can come over anytime I feel like bothering you."It was his turn to smile."Find a house and get rid of this penthouse.""I a
