Willow's POV

One of the men was standing in front of the other two, the man that had spoke. I glanced up at him but then quickly looked away. His face was fierce and tattoos snaked their way over his arms, covering almost every inch of skin in black ink. Everything about these men screamed ‘menacing’ and I saw Alex backing away, trembling, into the corner of the room.

They paid no attention to me, their eyes locked on their target – Alex. They came at him in large strides, cornering him.

“You owe money,” the front man said as Alex cowered in the corner. “Your debt is overdue.”

“I know,” Alex said in a shaky voice. He wrung his hands in front of him. “I just need a few more days. My brother is sending me some money and I can pay off the debt with it. I promise,” Alex pleaded.

“That’s what he said last time, Big D,” one of the men said to the man speaking to Alex. Big D gave his henchmen a sly smile.

“Please, just a few more days,” Alex said.

“I’m out of patience,” Big D replied, his voi

  • Ex and Son Beg, But I Never Turn Back   Chapter 454: The Christmas Concert

    Willow’s POV“Willow Anderson. I have to say, you’re the last person I expected to see here.” The tone was cutting, riddled with sarcasm. I looked Marianne dead in the eyes, lifting my chin in the process.She was the president of the school Parent’s Association, and as such, she was manning the door to the Christmas concert. She eyed me up and down, her expression belied her thoughts.I was the fiancé of a criminal. That’s what she was thinking. It was written all over her face.“Why wouldn’t I be here?” I asked, my voice steady. “All three of my children are in the show.” I wasn’t going to let this judgmental bitch’s snide comments bring me down. We were all here for the children.“Well, given the…circumstances,” Marianne said, “I guess we just assumed you’d be sitting this one out.”“Nonsense,” I chuckled. “We wouldn’t miss this for the world.” Logan, Adonis, and Jay stood at my side. Mira, Carl, and Leo had all scurried away, to meet up with their classmates backstage to get ready

  • Ex and Son Beg, But I Never Turn Back   Chapter 453: Willow’s Confession

    Third Person POV“What is it, Willow?” Logan asked, taking a seat on the bed beside the vanity. He was concerned about Willow. Her face was very pale. She sniffled back some tears and dabbed at her eyes with a handkerchief. Then she swiveled around to him.“Okay,” she said, swallowing hard. “I’m going to tell you something, but you have to promise to keep this between us.”“Of course,” Logan told her, his concern increasing by the minute. He’d promised Luigi he’d look after Willow in Luigi’s absence, so that’s what he was going to do. “Cross my heart,” he said. He drew an X over his heart, causing Willow to smile faintly.“It should be good news,” Willow said, her voice weak. “The best news, really. But given the circumstances, it’s just…” Her voice trailed off.“You can tell me,” Logan prodded her. Whatever it was, it was clearly weighing very heavily on Willow’s mind.With a deep sigh, Willow brought her eyes to Logan’s. “I’m pregnant,” she confessed.The words hung in the air, momen

  • Ex and Son Beg, But I Never Turn Back   Chapter 452: Looking After Willow

    Third Person POVThe guilt that Logan felt over knowing that Luigi was locked away while he was roaming free was suffocating. Unpacking his clothes in the guest room at Willow’s estate, Logan felt tired beyond words.It was only a week until Christmas at this point, and Willow was beside herself. Carl had taken a turn for the worst, and he was waking up in the middle of the night screaming. Willow explained to Logan that Carl had a lot of trauma, and now that Luigi wasn’t home, he was reliving the fear that he’d felt when he lost his parents.Adonis and Jay had also moved into the house. They’d all agreed it was the right thing to do. They intended on keeping a close tabs on Willow, and helping out with the kids as much as they could.Glancing up at the TV, Logan saw yet another news flash with Luigi’s name across the bottom. The media was having a hey day with the story and it felt like every time they turned on the TV, there was another story about Luigi and his incarceration.For th

  • Ex and Son Beg, But I Never Turn Back   Chapter 451: High Security Prison

    Luigi’s POVSitting in the back of the transport van, my hands cuffed, I stared out the window at the passing scenery.“Whatcha in for?” a burly looking man sitting beside me asked. He was missing a front tooth, and had a dark snake tattoo that crawled up his neck.“Assault,” I lied, knowing that it wasn’t a good idea to tell anyone that I was committed for selling illegal grapes.The van lurched to the side, and I almost fell onto the man beside me.“Huh,” he said, staring me up and down. “Murder for me. Second degree. The dick had it coming to him.”Nodding at the man, I turned my attention back to the window. Since I’d plead guilty, I was being transferred to a different facility. It was a higher security prison, full of men with life sentences. That’s what Stewart had told me in our meeting before I left.I knew that this prison would be even more dangerous than the previous jail. I intended on just keeping my head down and not drawing any attention to myself. Stewart was already w

  • Ex and Son Beg, But I Never Turn Back   Chapter 450: Carl’s Outburst

    Willow’s POV“Oh, Carl,” Logan said. “Just um, wait a minute bud, okay?”Logan looked to me, his eyes flooded with concern. I flashed him a look that said I didn’t know what to do.“What’s wrong, Uncle Logan?” Carl asked. “Do you want to come and wait for Daddy too?”“It’s just that, well,” Logan started. He raked his hands through his hair. Adonis and Jay looked at me with sympathetic smiles. This had already gone on too long. I couldn’t keep letting the kids believe that Luigi was coming home.“Come here, love,” I said, digging deep to find the courage I needed to break their little hearts. “All of you. Come sit.”I made my way to the couch and sat down. The kids gathered at my feet, sitting on the plush carpet. They looked up at me with such sweet eyes.“What is it, Mommy?” Mira asked. “Is Daddy late?”Inhaling a deep breath, I figured it was best just to come right out and say it. Like ripping off a bandaid, so to speak.“The thing is, um, Daddy won’t be coming home tonight.”The m

  • Ex and Son Beg, But I Never Turn Back   Chapter 449: Home Coming

    Willow’s POVPacing around the kitchen, I was an utter wreck. I was furious with Luigi for pleading guilty and leaving me all alone. But I was also proud of him. He’d taken the fall for Logan, and I knew Luigi. In his heart, he believed he was doing the right thing.But still.Biting my fingernails, I served the kids their dinner.“Aren’t you going to eat, Mommy?” Mira asked.Shaking my head, I wandered over the sink. I couldn’t eat anything. Not only was I sick to my stomach over what had happened at the courthouse, but I was also struggling with really bad morning sickness.It had started about a week ago, and it was getting progressively worse.The children wanted to know where Luigi and Logan were, since I’d told them we’d all be having dinner together tonight. I didn’t have it in me to tell them that Luigi wasn’t going to be home for a while.But Logan would be.And that’s what I was waiting for. Any moment now, Logan would come through the doors, freshly released from jail. Ther
