It was dark when he reached the house, and Charlotte was already asleep. He wanted to come home sooner but when his father called, Seamus was quick to get back to the office to find out what his father had uncovered. His father was not kidding, what he found was something that he could benefit from. Something very significant that he will surely use against the judge, together with what Keegan had found, Seamus was convinced that Cormac will be released sooner than he expected.Seamus was too tired when he arrived at the house. He had been working too hard for the past couple of weeks, while also impatiently trying to wait out on getting Charlotte's dad legally freed. So, instead of talking to Charlotte that same night, he decided that he'd tell her the next day. But when morning came his phone was buzzing, demanding his attention. It was a text from Keegan, telling him that he was out front. Seamus who was already dressed thinking that he'd spend a quiet breakfast with Charlotte ha
Charlotte was bored with nothing to do but paced around the house. She was still concerned about her dad, though there was nothing to do wait while worrying about his condition and the situation was driving her crazy.Yesterday morning Seamus left in a hurry, and though he gave her the best goodbye kiss, still she missed him. She had danced and then spent time at his home library reading books, though it was more like flipping pages since she couldn't read past a few pages of the books. Yes, she tried several books and nothing was interesting enough for her to continue reading.Then, when he was not back by dinner time, she grew wearier. She understands that Seamus Braddock is a busy man. Charlotte wanted to wait up for him but the stress was depleting her energy and she falls asleep sometime after nine in the evening. After an uneventful yet tiring day yesterday, Charlotte hoped that Seamus would have breakfast with her the next morning. But just like the day before, he was needed s
It was not the kind of breakfast in bed she was expecting. This was the kind of breakfast where she was the main course. Charlotte was writhing under him as Seamus moved under the cover. His hands were all over her body, and his sinful mouth somehow kept on devouring her until she saw stars. "Seamus!" She cried his name the second her climax hits. Charlotte was blushing profusely when he dragged her body to lay on top of him."Morning, beautiful." She smiled and let him snuggle into the crook of her neck. They lay together while his hand rubbed her backside and she practically blissed out from her orgasm. "Don't baby, I can take care of myself later. This is for you." He whispered when her hand started stroking his erection."I know, but I want to take care of you too." She said sweetly as she kept on moving her hand up and down his cock. The man groaned knowing he couldn't say no to her. It didn't take long for him to smear his warm cum on her thigh and she giggled when he had to
When it was almost dinner time, Charlotte decided to put on makeup. Her eyes were still red and all puffy. She looked like a mess but then decided to let go of the makeup and put on a damp towel over her eyes instead.She was resting on her bed when Seamus entered her room with a glass of hot tea to soothe her nerves. "I'm still red and blotchy, I can't believe your parents will be coming for dinner.""I'm sorry baby. But I couldn't say no to my dad, since it was because of him that I managed to have the leverage to persuade the judge to take another look at his case." The lies spilled perfectly out of his mouth. Well, part of it anyways, because his dad did help him out."Now, I've said to you before that they're going to re-open the case. But, I don't want you to worry about the details, since there's nothing that loomed over your dad's anymore."Seamus gave Charlotte her tea and waited for her to drink it before he sits beside her on the bed. His back was on the headboard just like
The next day Seamus decided to have a chat with Cormac before they left for the cemetery. "I want to ask your permission to marry your daughter," Seamus said while they waited for Charlotte to come down and join them."Yet, you've asked for her to marry you already." He replied with an amused smile on his face."Yes, yes I have. It was too spontaneous but I want to make this right. I know she loves you very much and your blessing will mean so much for her and also for me. For both of us." "You're a good man, Seamus, you got my blessing." The younger man looked relaxed before Cormac continued. "What I've heard about her in prison made me almost lose it. But your lawyer had convinced me that you had nipped the issue and taken care of her." "What exactly did you hear?" With all of the earlier issues with Charlotte and her work, he didn't know that Cormac had learned anything about his daughter while he was in prison. This was news to him and he was really clueless as to what it might
When Seamus got arrested, Charlotte was a total mess. But after he called her, she calmed down for a little while deep inside she still felt some uncertainty over her future husband.As Seamus predicted, her dad watched how Charlotte was acting all though in front of him. And Cormac felt bad when he wasn't able to help her. He could see on her face that she was falling apart on the inside.Seamus's parents arrived at the house a couple of hours after they did and it was a good thing because her dad was not getting through to her. "Come on my beautiful child, let's leave them to talk it over while you and I can make some cookies and mini sandwiches for their afternoon tea. Tell me, how does your father drink his tea?" "Um, hot? I usually see him drinking coffee."Charlotte looked unsure but Erin just smiled at her and put her hand on the crook of her arm as she ushered Charlotte to the spacious kitchen."That's alright, dear. Come, help me prepare." Erin patted her cheek warmly and l
Seamus's parents went home after dinner. Charlotte's dad retreated to his room not long after, and the young couple went to theirs to rest for the night. Everything in the house was quiet and peaceful as Seamus wrapped his arms around her under the covers. He had taken his pain pills and Charlotte had drifted off to sleep minutes ago while he was still watching his beautiful soon-to-be-wife. He let himself close his eyes after kissing her forehead. It felt like he had slept only for a few minutes when his phone buzzed from an incoming call. He grunted but was alert immediately when he saw Keegan's name flashing on his screen. "Yes," "Boss, there are people inside the house. We're on our way. Get everyone to safety." "Shit," "I got you, just hide. We got this." Keegan reassured him and he acted quickly rather than asking questions. Seamus ended the call and started pulling up his pants then woke Charlotte after reaching for his gun. "Charlotte baby, you need to get up and get dr
It had been more than a week since the attack and Seamus was getting better. He was still weak but pretended that he was healed then got sneaky by popping painkillers for his shoulder. He didn't get to a hospital for an operation but he did get the friendly local doctor well known in the underground crime organization to illegally operate on his shoulder in the privacy of his own home. Just like the good old days, his dad told him after he was awakened from his anesthesia. That day Charlotte was as white as sheet, one might think she also had gotten shot. Her eyes were puffy and her hands were so cold when he touched her. But she smiled only for a couple of seconds before she was back to pouting and ready to demand assurance from her fiance.Two days after the incident Charlotte started having nightmares. She would wake up sweating, shaking, and screaming so loud that Seamus's heart ached every time he cuddled her until she got back to sleep. And almost two weeks in she was still hav
