KillianTwo Years Later“I’m carrying twin girls!” announced Sydney, sharing my excitement. I gasped with surprise, wrapping her in my arms. “I’m the happiest man alive, Princess. Thank you for keeping your promise. I never thought you would remember.” I kissed her forehead and held her close to my heart. “How can I forget? We both had waited for this moment.” The last two years had been a roller-coaster ride for both of us. While Sydney spread her wings, I juggled between home and work. I was settled in my world, and it was the right thing to do. I had to give her time to achieve her career goals. Yet Sydney never let fame and success come between us. She was the most grounded and humble person I had ever met. We still shared the same magic as we did the first day we met. Every time we made love, it felt special. Now, when her career had taken off, Sydney stunned me three months ago with the news of her pregnancy. Ever since, I had tried my best to take care of her, to pamper a
Sydney “No, please, I don’t want one, Killian!” I jumped out of his lap, but he pulled me back. “I’ll try not to give you one. But I’m uncontrollable tonight. You have enticed me all evening wearing your latest design.” He pulled me flush against his body, grinding himself against my crotch. A soft moan of pleasure escaped my lips. I felt a wave of molten heat course through my body. The need multiplied every second, and he hadn’t touched me yet. I drowned in his lust-filled gaze. “And you as well with your eyes.” He chuckled knowingly. “So, you noticed, hmm? What could I do? I couldn’t look away from you.” I rolled my eyes, although my heart melted into a puddle. Did he really consider me so beautiful? “I’m not that beautiful, Killian.” He gave me a shocked look. “Of course you are. How about me? Do you think I’m good-looking?” I winked at him. “Fishing, Killian?” He grinned at being caught. “Yes, I am. So?” He pulled me closer, waiting breathlessly for my honest opinion of h
SydneyTwo Months LaterI looked around the enormous showroom with pride. After two months of relentless hard work, it was finally ready to be launched. When Emilia declined my offer to be a social media manager, I was heartbroken. However, Killian employed Caitlin Drew, his friend and Maddox’s cousin. With a huge social media network, she was good at her job. SBB Atelier has already grown by leaps and bounds across all social media platforms because of Caitlin's relentless hard work. I was glad Emilia had declined. She couldn’t have done justice to the role. “How satisfied are you with the outcome?” Killian came up behind me, wrapping his arm around my waist and pulling me into him. I leaned in to his warmth. This wouldn’t have been possible without his selfless support. “It’s perfect! Thanks, baby! I owe you!” He turned me around to face him. I gazed back at him, drowning in his eyes that held so much love for me. “You owe me nothing, Princess. You’re my heart, my life. I’ll do
SydneyAfter spending a week with my family, we returned home feeling rejuvenated. My life had never been this enjoyable before. With Emilia living close by, we met every day.“Let’s start something together, Syd. I’m bored at home.” She slumped into the chair in front of me on the patio.“What about your job?” I knew she was last working at an MNC as its marketing head.“I resigned in my second trimester. Ever since, I’ve been having second thoughts about joining back. I wanted to do something of my own. But Tony wants me to give time to the twins.” She gave me a hopeful look.“Even I’ve left the fashion agency I was working for in Paris. I want to start my fashion house soon. You can join me as my partner and market our brand.”Her eyes lit up at the idea. “Oh, I love the idea. But I have to ask Tony. So, have you thought of a name? We could start by registering the business.”I nodded, not liking Tony’s dominance over her. “I’m interested in creating stunning silhouettes for women
SydneyI hadn’t expected Killian to drive me to my father’s house in Pacific Palisades. Wasn’t it his enemy territory? Tears crept into my eyes to meet the old security guards I had grown up seeing. Jonathan, who had opened the gates for me that fateful night, was still there. “Miss Sydney, you’re back?” He had tears of joy in his eyes when he saw me. I smiled at him. “Yes, with my husband and boys.” They doted on the twins, ushering us to the main house. I was overwhelmed by the warm welcome I received after such a long time. It seemed nothing had changed here since the day I fled home. Only my father – the root cause of all my problems, was no more. Strangely, I felt no pain at the thought. If he were alive, I wouldn’t have returned home. I would never have considered patching things up with my brothers. In fact, my father wouldn’t have given me access to my bank account if he were alive. I was indebted to Louis for his thoughtfulness, or I couldn’t have survived in Paris. Th
Killian The flight landed at the Los Angeles International Airport, and I glanced at my little family. The twins were fast asleep, and Sydney, too, looked well-rested. I was glad they could endure this long flight. After a jostle at the baggage carousel, we were finally on our way home. But I had my doubts. Did she want to go back to my house? I knew how much she hated living there.“Home at last! Any regrets?” I watched her smile and shake her head.Her eyes sparkled with enthusiasm, relieving the tension that had been mounting inside my heart. “None.” “I know you hate the house. If you don’t want to live there, I’ll buy another place for us.” I didn’t want her to leave again. This time, I couldn’t survive the heartache. “I don’t hate the house, Killian. It’s a lovely beachfront house, but I felt lonely out there because you hardly spent time with me.” She sighed at the memory. It made me feel guilty. Of course, I was the only one to blame here. “I promise to change all that, Sy
