When a fire destroys young Valiant's family home she finds herself hurled in a life that is attempting to destroy her. "Malcolm, please. I'm tired. It's been years and I haven't told anyone. I just want to be left alone." I pleaded with him for mercy hoping he'd been satisfied with the devilment he'd kept up for years. He grabbed my butt and hissed, "Bịtch, you don't get to say when you're tired. As long as I have access to you, you'll open up and let me fûck you. Now, where's the money I gave from the last time? Did you spend it? Do you need more? I'll stop by tonight. Since you weren't here last night....wait did you fûck him? You let him touch what is mine." My eyes widened in terror knowing that my revealing the truth to him would cause me more pain. I cry uncontrollably for minutes until I hear Roman's voice shouting! "I'm going to kill that motherfūcker!" But there appeared with Roman Driggs, his best friend and battle buddy Reece Shields, sexy, confident and dangerous. Charged with keeping an eye out for Valiant, Reece begins to fall in love with his friend's girlfriend... **** "Damnit woman! I love you! It kills me everyday that I'm not the one! He doesn't deserve you and in spite of what you think about yourself, you're the perfect girl for me. I've never wanted or needed something so bad." He had tears streaming down his face. **** "Reece, I love you and am in love with you. Please help me." "I think I'm pregnant." There's a trail of betrayal, lust and schemes that tear apart the world of two military friends and complicates the love of the remaining couple.
View MoreValiant's POV I watched all of the madness unfold before me three weeks ago. Shocked to say the least by Roman and Lettie showing up. A great day had turned very quickly red. Reece still hadn't made any moves to deal with the female just yet knowing that her male counterpart wouldn't want to jeopardize her life for the sake of their son. Our lives continued progressing toward bliss though. We closed the house and moved in. The boys all picked their rooms in the guest house. Papa and Madre purchased bigger golf carts that could accommodate the kids in their car seats. In just a few hours, we'd all be gathering to host our formal wedding ceremony to the world. The live stream would just for the frills. The groom said that he wanted us to have a fairy tale wedding with beautiful pictures and grand memories. The event would also signify Reece's most recent breakthrough as an independent tech firm supporting only private clients and a few military operations. We both agreed that I'
Roman's POV I watched the happy couple for weeks. I saw them go in and out of two homes, several offices, and many restaurants. Sometimes they were solo, sometimes they were together and sometimes they carried their son. They were popular in their small town which was sitting off the cusp of the major city. They never met a stranger and it infuriated me. And then one day, I followed them to the most peculiar place, a place that I hated to imagine. What was supposed to be my reality was theirs. My months of incarceration had brought them close. Lettie's failed revenge pulled them closer and bound them to a certain fate. They would became who and what I didn't want. Ever. I had resented Reece, since meeting him and I thought that somehow we could be equal. He wasn't this arrogant rich up front and once getting to know him, he was just annoyingly brotherly. None of us in his group with the exception of bald headed Todd knew he was rich. Reece could do all things well and he'd only
Author's POV The day was on them. The fellas had travel ahead into time and the jet lag was already pressing them...they had lost two whole hours and they already knew that Reece was going to be annoying as hell. When the plane landed on the private air strip not too far from the ranch and the new Shields' residence they all off boarded and took their luggage to the sleek army green pickup truck Reece left for them. He was a thoughtful asshole. He had painted the lift gate with "Bestest Men" and it caused them a lot of headaches with all the cars honking at them. When they pull up onto the ranch they blew the horn loudly and Papa came out to the porch. Leaning over the rail he yelled back in his morning, thick German accent, "Blow your nose and you'll get something out!" All the men laughed and went up to hug their surrogate father figure. Todd was the last to greet the old man and he kissed the top of his bald head as a show of affectionate acceptance. "Papa, I am glad to see th
Reece's POV I was so elated, knowing that we were expanding our family. I literally looked at my woman sitting around my brother and my parents and I was shouting on the inside. This was a dream come true albeit, I never thought I'd fall in love with a cheeky curly haired black girl from the south. She blew my expectation of what I thought I wanted in a partner. Valiant became my best friend. She is my rib. Sure she was pissed when she realized that my first and fifteenth paychecks from the military was pocket money for me. She didn't want me for my money. There was no hounding me for more than I wanted to give, she was actually more conservative with us hanging out before we got intimate and certainly afterwards. I loved how she could be polished, prim and proper one moment and then she was on that beat your ass shit the next. Her conversation scaled from politics to bioscience to business or from interpreting the geezers hanging at the corner stores. One thing was for certain.
Valiant's POV Three months later... I stared down at the one two lined plastic stick, the one 'positive' digital plastic stick and the one white and black diagnosis. And finally, the one black and white 3D ultrasound. Great job Reece! He has won again. Greedy bastard. Dylan was kind of enough to do this for me and keep it in the family since the news of the pending wedding was set at a rapid rate of speed. Every major news outlet was trying to get any new sensational news. I sighed in both relief and defeat as I collected all my evidence in a clean clear zip lock bag. My very soon to be husband is laying in the bed waiting on me to come back to him. He gave me more than some "be good" and I have proof that it only made me a bad actor. I couldn't resist being worse toward him. This man did not complain. Throwing the bag on his bare chest I heaved a deep breath and waited for his reaction. "Baby?" I didn't answer."Baby...I know you hear me." He poked my shoulder, he's so child
Valiant's POV After Reece and Val spoke intensely about the home, her plans and his desires they came to a compromise. She agreed to close the deal and purchase the house and if she wasn't pregnant in six months then she'd leave off to the Air Force. This was a trap. Her endeavors to go to the military would fizzle out with her impending pregnancy. This was all Reece wanted, he needed to see his family growing and prospering. Alas, she spent no tears or loss no sleep over the deal she struck with thus guy. He had such good business acumen and had a knack to negotiate fiercely. No wonder she ended up on a dinner date in a another city staying at a hotel and giving him a go a little over a year ago with a baby to prove it all happened that way. Still, there was a feeling stuck to the back of her mind as they drive out to meet Asher Valencia. The guy weirded her out and gave her pause when speaking with him. He was the kind of guy that she never want to be in closed quarters with.
Continued from previous chapterRoman's Flashback POV "This motherfūcker has some nerve! Get his aşs up!" Angelo roared. Two minutes later two of the men were dragging my hungover and bewildered ass out to the living room. Gerald grabbed a chair from the dining table and plopped me on it. Angelo gave me a cup of black coffee to wake me up. "What what's this? Why is everyone here?" I asked even more confused. "Caleb and Valor are in route, it'd be best if you start explaining wat the hell is going on with you before they get here." Todd was speaking so low that it sounded like a feral growl. "Too late." Angelo revealed.Caleb and Valor, Valiant's older brother came into the house only Caleb didn't stop until he got to me. Standing right in front of me, toes touching Caleb had transformed. "Quit talking in fūcking circles man! You got some explaining to do and I don't wanna hear nothing but the damn truth!" He was leaned down into my face but I was unfazed as my mask slipped down i
Roman's POV "She's fine man! Exotic with her big curly hair and deep brown almost eyes. Bro, her lips and the way she speaks....I almost came on myself when I saw the way those jeans hugged her." "I'm telling you, she is what dreams are made of but the men that surround her are nightmares. I'm not afraid to throw hands but c'mon let's be reasonable, you can't expect me to keep going around them." The phone was silent. "Think less with your dick, and do your fucking job. I am not your bro. I'll be there in soon." Click. Roman sat with his head in his hands while his driver drove him. His domestic bank accounts had been emptied and there were notifications of attempted access of his off-shores. All of his other assets, investments and retirement funds frozen. He had funds and resources hidden in all kinds of places and his people always come through for him. He was linked with some of the biggest political figures a
Author's POV 3 weeks later "Thanks Deej!" Val hugged her future cousin-in-law as he handed her the cleared for duty paper work with her medical file and x-rays. "Yeah, pretty lady, no problem. Now, you take care of yourself so that you can go do greater things." "I sure will and hopefully, we'll see you for dinner soon?" He pecked her cheek and left out of the door with her in tow. Todd and Gerald were sitting in the waiting room watching some videos that Reece, Papa and Angelo had sent of a new property Reece wanted to acquire. Caleb was gone again, he was set to go off to school to become an officer and he wanted to see his family and girlfriend before he boarded his plane. Dylan hadn't been coming around much after the engagement was announced he mostly avoided his cousin and future cousin for obvious reasons. He liked Valiant. He liked her so much that for days after the airport encounter all he thought about was her. He'd hoped she would use his number and call to have
