Shane's pov

Lucy's after sex look was one of the breathtaking looks I had ever seen. The faint pink on his cheeks and the bridge of her nose. Her slightly parted lips and drooping eyes. If i wasn't hard before I was now.

So hard I could break.

Her shoulders sagged and she yanked hervryes open her face turning more crimson. Before I could mutter a word she dragged down her shirt bolting out of my room. A breath left my lips and I ran my hand down my hair.

What the hell did I just do?

Lucy wasn't supposed to be like this. She was strictly business and now I had ruined such a clear line. Her face flashed in my head and I let out a frustrated groan. I spent the next hours eating dinner then trying to answer as many emails as I could with one of the most painful boners I ever had.

Jerking off wasn't an option and my taste for other women had shrivelled more than a dry raisin with her in the picture. With a groan I shut my phone heading for my room. I fell to my bed and with a hand over my

  • The Billionaires Game    Chapter 228

    Lucy's POVIt had been months since Meredith sent any threats to us. The twins' third birthday was approaching in a week.“One potato, two potatoes, three potatoes…” Aria counted.“Stop counting. You're giving me a headache,” Ethan complained but Aria ignored him.She was so eager to count every single thing in the basket. We were in the kitchen and she thought it was better to count than hand me the potatoes like she was supposed to.“Mom,” Ethan called. “Please, tell Aria to shut up.”“Sweetie, don't be harsh on your sister. Aria, can you stop counting?”“But I want to be sure we have the right amount,” she complained.“It doesn't matter. You can count later when you're eating but we have to cook these. Hand me the potatoes,” I said gently.She held one, looked at it sadly like it was her precious toy and stretched her hands. “Thank you,” I mouthed and threw it into the pot.Ethan wasn't as patient. He picked a couple more and gave them to me. Soon, the basket was empty and when Ari

    Lucy’s POVGolden morning sun filtered through the curtains, lighting and warming the room. For the first time in weeks, both twins had slept later than dawn.It was supposed to be a gentle start.I was halfway through my coffee when Caroline blew in with the paper. “Front page, darling.”There was one: a picture of Dwayne and Xandra’s engagement, the headline citing the “Mason family charm.” I laughed. “Charm? They certainly didn’t see me screaming at Shane in that parking lot.”Caroline smiled. “They saw what mattered.”Before I could answer, the doorbell . It was quick, and sharp.Shane emerged from the nursery, still in his pajama pants. “Expecting someone?”“No,” I said. “Maybe Xandra forgot something.”The guard returned with a glossy black envelope. He handed it over to me. I took it, confused. It has no name and no return address.“The mail man said it was for Mrs. Wilson,” he said and I nodded, letting him return.I stared at the silver wax seal, imprinted with an odd symbol

    Lucy's POVThe twins changed everything from my sleep, to my schedule, my sanity. Everything was gone. The first week was a pain, then the next month. I was slowly getting used to it.It was 2 a.m, and I was doing what had become my nightly routine – trying to rock Aria to sleep while humming offline to a lullaby I barely remembered.Shane was up, holding Ethan because he was the one who started it, crying for no reason and waking his sister up.Ethan was the starter package. Aria was more quiet. He would cry so loud, waking his sister and go back to being quiet.Finally, Ethan closed his eyes and Shane had a lot of crisis trying to lay him in his crib without waking him up. “He's a little pain in the ass,” Shane whispered.“You're not different,” I mumbled back.Then he took Aria. She was a daddy's girl closing her eyes when she got in his arms. He rocked her, staying that way a little longer and I knew she was going to be spoiled rotten.“You're cheating. Ethan got little time,” I c

    Lucy's POVTwo and Half Months LaterThe music played in the ballroom. Tonight was Dwayne and Xandra's engagement party. He was as nervous as hell a day before, asking me for the hundredth time if Xandra would love to be his.Shane had fun mocking him. Dwayne and I had gotten closer. He acted like my brother and made Shane swear he would be the godfather of our child. Shane didn't buy that.“That's Caleb's role. You're an uncle. Deal with it.”“Tsk. After denying he was your best friend for so long,” Caleb complained.Shane had his hands over Dwayne's shoulder and teased him some more. “Thanks for making me realize it. You're not completely useless after all.”Dwayne shot him a glare and I knew what was up. “Nope. Not here. You two are going to act like grown men. Shane, stop testing Dwayne's patience. He needs it for tomorrow and you…”Dwayne's eyes immediately went to my face. “Let it go. Come help me with this.”Dwayne rushed over and then I felt a kick in my stomach. “Oooh,” I gro

    Lucy's POVI fastened the last clip of my mule. Shane wouldn't let me walk in heels even when I told him it was fine. He was scared I would break my ankle.My reflection in the mirror guided me as I applied my lipstick. I had a movie premiere to attend.My recent movie was cresting waves in the movie blockbuster and I was trending. Shane had promised me a surprise when he heard the news.I was still struggling to get my bracelet clasp when he stepped in looking handsome in his black tuxedo. His hair was perfectly styled.His eyes softened when they met mine. “You're glowing,” he praised, checking me out.I chuckled, trying to hide my blush and failed. “That's just the pregnancy hormones talking.”“No,” he whispered, closing the distance between us. “This one is on you, darling.”Mama Mia. How did I get this man? His fingers softly brushed a stray curl off my shoulder. I shivered when his warm hand touched my skin.“Close your eyes.”“Hmmm,” I said cheerfully. “What's the surprise?”“Y

    Lucy's POVThree Months later:I held onto the phone speaking to Susan. It had been ages. “Hold on, girl. I feel the baby's moving,” I said. “!!!” Susan screamed while I rubbed my belly. “How's my strong man doing?”“Susan, we aren't sure of its gender yet.”“Why not?” She asked.“I don't know. I just wanted it to be a surprise.”“Ah-ha. I wonder how surprised you'll be if you have twins.”I chimed. “Susan. Don't. I have a major crisis thinking about having one. I love babies but it's going to be twice the stress.”“I know. I'm just so excited to be a Godparent. How far gone are you?” She asked like an excited chipmunk.“Three months,” I answered and she giggled. Susan was more excited for the baby than I was.“I have to go. The models are giving me stress. I'll talk to you later. Bye, sweetie.”I kissed her back and the line went dead. I smiled, running my hand around my belly. “Mommy can't wait to meet you,” I cooed.Then I got out of bed. The image staring at me from the reflecti
