ISA POVI couldn’t believe I was doing this!I groaned before taking a sip of the now cool tea I had in my hand and yanked down the oversized hoodie of a bloody pink and blue onesie I was wearing.I swear if I got my hands on that very particular soul that came up with such a becursed, horrible idea of dressing me up in a multi-collared onesie; I was going to shred them to pieces.Fast forward from my clash with Edwina, Becca and some of her minions visited the clinic and had Ava give them my records of the ultrasound; then met up with the prince of hell to plan and execute the whole charade. “If we’re going to pull this off sweetheart, you better work on your smile,” Xander called out suddenly standing way too close to me; way too close that I could feel his breath washing over my cheek. I gave him a death side-glance that had him snickering softly. I wanted to kill him for more reasons than one, one of them being the fact that he looked like a damn sex god exuding pheromones and sex

*BACK IN DARK WOODS*VERZI POVA deep groan of a pained savage beast rumbled from deep inside of my throat as my bloody fists continued pummeling into the disfigured face of a fucker who remained unmoving beneath my weight. But I didn’t give two shits because he probably died on the first two punches. But here I was, a thousand punches later still mauling his already sucks-to-look-at face. A pair of strong arms circled my torso from behind as they pried me off my human punching back which actually thought it had balls big enough to screw with us; lie about the whereabouts of my woman just so he can claim a 100 fucking thousand euros reward. I let the calm and collected energy seep from my brother’s warm embrace to sooth and curb the crippling pain that had my heart clenched so tight it felt gruesome to be breathing.“It’s okay. He’s dead now.” He cooed softly pulling me in a bear hug that undid all the restraints I spent so much time building. My shoulders slumped drastically as all

ISA POVTime really seemed to be having the mind of its own. Within a very short span, a month had flown by and I was well accustomed in my role in the US. And ever since the drastic gender reveal party, Xander has been a no show case and if I were to be bluntly honest, I was actually thankful for the peace and quiet. That man always managed to vex me so much I felt like biting his head whenever he was near, and his absence felt like magic. Even though I knew damn well that he still had his lackeys keeping an eye on him.Although it was almost natural to ignore his possible existence, I did know with every cell in me that there was never a time I was going to shake him off.A lot has happened in a month. Because the dearly beloved neighborhood wives found it really worth their time, attention and energy to nominate me for the annual presidential election of the little organization they had going there. I’ll admit, I was astonished that they had such a real thing going on, instead of j

XANDER POVSitting in a $500 grand penthouse on the 18th floor in the heart of Chicago, I circled the rim of the glass that contained the brandy I have been drinking for the past two hours while lost in the deep conversa- cancel that, while lost in deep negotiations.“My father used to ship the merch to Brazil, Cuba, Puerto Rico, and Peru. There are pharmaceutical labs in each country which makes it easy to do ‘business' without getting…” the man sitting across me informed while his eyes continued roaming around at the heavily armed guys that were minding their own business, patrolling in his expensive penthouse. I wonder if they didn’t ache by now.“So you’re just going to walk away from all of that? The money, your father’s legacy?” I leaned forward causing him to yelp and nearly jump out of his skin, then stifled laughter because he’s been doing that every time I breathed, which was every damn second. By the time we left here, he would be so damn sore. Leaning forward, I made sure

ISA POV“HOW MANY TIMES DO YOU WANT ME TO ANSWER THAT: I DO NOT KNOW WHAT THAT IS OR HOW IT EVEN GOT INTO MY CAR. It’s a setup, I was set up.” I called out for the umpteenth time and this time, with annoyance and exasperation lacing my tone. I have been answering the same question ever since I stepped into this interrogation room, and I was so fed up that I was no longer scared. I was for the most part, but heck; this had to be the longest hour ever.“Miss Jones, it would be really helpful and time-saving if you could tell us where you got the pack of ecstasy from, and where you were going to ship it to before getting caught. Give us a clue, anything. A name and I promise you that you’ll walk away free.”The first name to pop up in my mind was Alexander Fucking Aldermen.“Dear officer, with all due respect, you’ve been keeping me here for more than an hour, asking me the same question over and over again. My answer remains unchanged, I do not know anything about drugs unless it’s for

ISA POVSitting in the back of the police car as it swerved through the busy evening streets, I watched as the sun crawled to the horizon below; ready to give way to the night. The sky cast a lovely orange hue on the skyscrapers in the city, bathing them in its golden glow. The evening breeze was gentle and very pleasing to the ones exposed to it, and it was clear that winter was well frail, ready to part. My hands were nestled on my tummy, rubbing small soothing circles on it. The little act had quickly become one of my favorite things to do, and it was magical the way it just calmed me. Of one of the things that came with Xander, finding out I was pregnant had to be the biggest blessing of them all. Although I missed my boys terribly. They were what made me wake up in the morning to face all the troubles of this world, and not being near them made me feel painfully incomplete.As of now, my mind was muddled so.Because I knew this place was no place for a child. And I will be damne

XANDER POVI watched the little stomp in her feet as she took off, and when it hit that minutes had ticked by with me just sitting there staring at the spot she had vacated at her doorstep, I let a frown drop to my face to wipe the silly smile I had on. I didn’t smile, I never did. Unless when I was drilling someone else’s skull. With an angry frustrated groan, I drove off.The drive back to the city was filled with thoughts of her, about how she managed to make everything just so easy to deal with. I hated to admit it, but she was slowly making her way into me. Cancel that, she was now so etched deeply inside of me that it was almost maddening. Because all I did was think about her. In a matter of days, weeks, she had managed to crawl into my skin, despite the thick, long wall I built, and the foolproof vest I had on as my armor.Seeing that tear roll down her face was something else. But knowing that I was the one who caused her eyes to well up was something entirely different. It

XANDER POV“What do you think of Leigh-Ari?”The words escaped my mouth faster than I registered them in my mind, and when they did, heavy silence settled inside my bedroom. The rustling that was once brewing from somewhere next to the bed halted, and evening breathing seized. It was as if someone had hit pause in the existence, that the time itself had stopped.I propped myself on my elbows and looked up, to find Ava glaring at me with gorged eyes as she tied the knot to her coat, concealing her once naked body. Not considering the butt floss she had on. “Ava?” My voice rumbled deep and impatient, snapping her eyes from me and she dropped them to the floor in submission.“Sir?”“I asked you a question.” I stated bluntly, and I could hear the silent ‘Seriously? You’re asking about Leigh-Ari right now?’ she was sitting on right there. She sighed heavily before walking towards the side table that was leaning against the wall at the far end of my bedroom, with a top full of wine bottles
