Theo POV
After leaving Abigail’s room, my head is spinning, I can’t even think straight, and my heart is beating so fast I think it might stop just to go on a strike for everything I have made it go through the last month. I close my eyes, storming into my office. I can hear Everly following me. That’s what I need, her and alcohol right now. I pour myself a big tumbler of whiskey and down it straight, noticing she is standing outside the office, in front of the door,
“Come here”, I say, offering her my hand. She stands inside and closes the door behind her. I walk to my chair, and she straddles me. That’s it, baby; make me feel your body against mine. That’s exactly what I need. To feel your warmth and your skin against my touch.
She places both of her hands against my chest. I bet she can feel my crazy heartbeat and how I m
Everly POVThings have been great between Theodore and me. He is so attentive, and he actually looks after Abigail and me. She is starting t warm up to him, and I am loving to witness it every second. Chris has disappeared, and Killian has been looking for him since that day. I have another bodyguard, but he is nowhere near as good as Spider, well, not in my eyes, anyway.“Are you ready, princess?”, Theo asks as he enters Abigail’s room as I finish braiding her hair. She looks at him through the mirror and smiles, holding onto her white Teddy bear. We found out that White is his name, coincidence? Probably not.“She’s almost ready”, I say as I finish her hair, and she stands up walking to Theo and holding his hand. They both walk out of Abigail’s room, and I follow them. When
Theo POVAs we reach the hospital and we get out of the car, Abigail holds my hand. I can tell she is very nervous because her hands are sweaty and shaking. I put one knee on the floor, standing in front of her and looking her in the eyes.“Are you okay, princess?”, I ask, and she nods her head. Her eyes locked on mine, and she smiled. I can tell she is nervous, but she doesn’t want to admit it to me. I pick her up, and she wraps her small arms around my neck, resting her head against my shoulder while I walk into the white reception area. Everything is clean and sterile, looking like there’s no life in there. I take a deep breath approaching the reception lady.“Hi, my name is Theodore, and this is my daughter Abigail. We are here to visit her mother, Agnes Smith?”, I say, and the girl types away on her computer and then she smil
Everly POV“Where are you going?” he asks, grabbing my wrist. I pull it away from him, forcing myself not to cry as I open the door and grab my laptop. Theo grabs my bag and then walks to me. He stands in front of me, towering over me.“Don’t do this, not like this. We can talk and sort this out. I didn’t agree with it. I had to speak to you first”, he says, and I shake my head, walking past him.I open the door to leave, but I am stopped by Everly. She comes running to me and hugs my legs. “Where are you going?” she asks with tears in her eyes. I bend down and cradle her beautiful little face between my hands. I have learned to love this girl with all my heart, and it is going to be very difficult for me to walk away, but I can’t stay here. Not when I am in the way of her happiness with her parents together.“I am going on a business trip, sweet p
Theo POV“I’m going to pick up Agnes”, I say as I walk out of the bathroom after brushing my teeth. I have been getting ready after waking up late because Everly decided she wanted to cuddle in bed. I have been busy with work lately, and Everly has been dealing with Abigail by herself. I feel bad that this is happening, but Killian is worried about Christopher and sent me on a fucking witch hunt. Everything went down the fucking drain when Christopher threatened Ashley’s life.Killian received an not long ago an email with pictures of Ashley walking and shopping and doing her normal things. Her security was increased both on our side and on the Italians. Shit is about to hit the fan as one more leader is found dead. The Spanish are trying to make an alliance with us now. So things are very complicated, and I don’t want Everly to worry about it.
Everly POVIt’s been a couple of hours since Theo left to go pick up Agnes. I can feel in my bones that something is not right. I just don’t know what. I hate this stupid feeling. I close my eyes as soon as my head hits the pillow at the end of the couch. I am feeling so tired that I can barely keep my eyes open. I allow them to close, taking me into a deep slumber and sending me to a dream world.“Why is she here?” I hear a woman’s voice, and I open my eyes to find a beautiful woman standing in front of me. She is wearing a fitted dress that hugs her slim body and rests over her knee. Her high heels are so high that they make her almost as tall as Theo as he stands next to her. My eyes meet his, and he doesn’t look at me.“Hi, I’m Everly”, I say as I approach her, offering my hand to shake, but she makes a nauseated face and takes one step back. Her eyes move up and down my body while she wraps one arm aroun
Theo POV“I’m gonna do some work, and I’ll be in the office”, Everly says. I know she is feeling uncomfortable, and I am not happy about this either. We just found out she is pregnant, and I haven’t even had a chance to celebrate with my wife. What kind of a man am I? I take a deep breath as I watch her move her sexy ass as she walks towards the office. I could easily sit her on my desk and fuck her senseless. Devour her body as if it was the only thing that matters in the world.“I didn’t know you could cook”, Agnes says as she laughs, and I smile back at her. She feels a lot lighter and not as crazy as she was when we broke up. I remember the last thing she said to me when I ended it. She looked deranged, and I couldn’t believe what she had done to me.As if she felt the change in my mood, she looks at me and a
Everly POVAgnes has been living here for a week, and I am not comfortable. I have been extremely sick and resting in bed all day while she walks around the house bossing around the staff while Theo is out doing God know what for his job. We haven’t announced my pregnancy yet, but we will be doing it today.Theo organised a dinner with Killian and Elliot. Killian will be taking his wife, that announced last week that she is pregnant with their first child. She looked stunning, her hair was shiny, and Killian looked like he could kill someone when people looked at her. She was shining, and she looked absolutely beautiful. I envied her because she was glowing while I looked like I hadn’t seen sunshine in more than a year, while my hair was not shiny anymore.I walk into the bathroom, determined to have a bath and wash away the smell of sickness and wash aw
Theo POV“Come on, why is it taking so long?”, I ask Elliot as I look at the road ahead. We don’t even know if we are going the right way.“I don’t know, fuck”, Elliot says as I drive around the traffic in Manhattan. “Left, now”, Elliot says, and I swerve the car turning left, making some cars beep and stop as I made my way down the road. “Okay, I am passing the coordinates to the car SATVNAV”, Elliot says, and all of a sudden, the map appears on the dashboard, and I start following the directions.“Are they behind us?” I ask, and Elliot nods his head.“Yes, they are”, he says, turning back to the front after he looks back to see if our man is following us. This mission has me on edge. I don’t like this at all, this is dan
