LOGIN"How long were your parents married?" I ask and reach for another nugget."Just over thirty-two years." He replies, shaking his head."Were they happy?"He laughs, "A fucking disaster, they shouldn't have been together. They argued day and night. They were miserable." He doesn't sound happy, and I'm wondering what I'm missing."But?"His eyes raise in surprise, "You're astute." He comments and I smile at his words, "But, they were married, and they took vows, that's an honor they had to obey. Something that my ma took seriously. My dad on the other hand," He shakes his head. "As I said a fucking disaster."I glance around just to make sure that no-one is eavesdropping, "Do you hate my mom for their marriage ending?" I saw the disapproval in Mom's eyes today, but Levi's not once made me believe that he dislikes her.He doesn't look at me, and finishes off his Big Mac before he answers me. "I don't blame her for their marriage ending." His tone deep and pissed off; he doesn't want to ta
RenaeLevi's hand is on the base of my back, he's leading me into the house, my entire body wound up tight. The lights are on downstairs which means someone's awake and I have a feeling that it's Mom.Levi leans in close, his lips brushing against my ear. "Princess, it's fine, we're going to eat and then I'm taking you to bed." His gravelly voice as he murmurs in my ear sends shivers throughout my body. "How wet are you?"I gasp and turn to face him, his arm going around me, pulling me flush against his body, his dick hard against my stomach. He seems to be in a constant state of arousal. "Levi, when you ask questions like that, I get soaked."He bites his lip as his eyes dilate, "Soaked?""Mmmhmm," I reply with a smile, being around him is so easy, and I'm actually okay at flirting with him, it's fun to tease him because his reactions are so sexy, he loves being around me. He touches me at every available opportunity. Even though he's the first guy I've been with, he makes me feel ch
"I know that she meant that she sometimes regrets it, or that she'd look back and wonder what if, but the culminations of the lies and secrets got to me. I can't stand the lies."Now isn't the time to tell her what I do, but I need to, and soon, if I don't and she finds out from someone else, I could lose her."Do you think I'm overreacting?" She asks quietly, her gaze drifting back to the sea."No, I don't. I think you know how you feel and right now, you're hurt, and you have every right to be. But Renae she's your mom, you're going to have to talk to her eventually."Her nose wrinkles in distaste. "I know. Just not now.""Okay, time to go."She frowns as I lift her off my lap. "Where are we going?"Standing I pull her into my arms, "Well, you never ate dinner," I kiss her lips and she immediately melts into my body, "I can taste beer on your lips which means you've been drinking on an empty stomach." My words come out like a reprimand, but I'm not telling her off. I'm just stating
I sit down beside her, not saying a word. A lone tear falls from her eye and down her cheek, she just sits there and stares out onto the beach. I leave her be, just sitting here waiting for her to talk. I know she will when she's ready. My arm reaches around her back, and I hold her. Within seconds, she's leaning against me, still not saying a word."Is Lacey gone?" She asks, twenty minutes later."Yeah, she's with Barney. He'll make sure she gets home okay." A shiver runs down her body, "Are you cold?"She blushes as she ducks her head into my chest, "No." She murmurs, her words low as she's talking into my chest. "Whenever you talk, I always get shivers."I smile at her admission, "Are you ready to go back?"She shakes her head. "I don't want to see her just yet."I pick her up and put her on my lap, "Talk to me." I ask her as I wrap my arms around her.Her head rests on my shoulder, and she places a kiss on my chin, "I'm probably being stupid."I rub my hand up and down her arm. Go

Levi"Boss, Barney's with the girls now." Martin says, and I open my eyes, "He said that he and Lacey were talking and she told him where they were.""Good." At least they're with my man. He'll make sure they're safe."Um, Boss..." Martin says tentatively."Martin?" I ask, getting frustrated. He knows how much I hate this fucking hesitant shit. Say what you have to and get it over and done with."He said Renae's not doing okay. She's sitting on the beach with Lacey, that she was crying earlier. That both the girls were."Shit. "Did he say what upset them?""No, he said they were fine when he got there, and then when Renae came out of the house she looked pissed. She and Lacey spoke and they both burst into tears.""How long until we get there?" Now I'm on edge. She shouldn't have left the house, although I understand why she did. She's in a fragile state of mind. Fuck. Martin needs to put his foot on the gas."Ten minutes." He replies.Jagger laughs, "I bet he's fucking having heart f

Dorian"I can't talk about this," she says, shaking her head. She looks at the Senator with disappointment etched on her face, and brushes past me without a glance. I stand there for a minute, the silence in the room lingering. The Senator leans over the table, both palms flat, his head hanging. I'
