The Ex's Daddy Chapter 63
HarperHis breath stinks of hard liquor it repulses me. I feel like I am going to gag. His voice is low and laced with danger and threat. How on earth did my mother even get involved with men like this? It saddens my heart and entire being to realize exactly how low she got. Fuck, I hope she makes it through rehab.“Don’t talk to me like that you piece of scum,” I hiss at him not backing down. What’s he going to do? Slit my throat? Hardly, he won’t get a dime that way.“I want my money, Princess otherwise I’m going to have to take you.” He sneers; his teeth are yellow I can make them out with the light that is on our porch wall. With all of my being I hope that Taylor is in bed, she doesn’t need to witness this.“I don’t have any money, I’m broke. My mom is broke and besides she isn’t around.”He leans in closer and threads a lock of my hair around his finger, the one and only strand that has somehow managed to break away. He curls it making my stomach heave. Fear is not something I a

Levy“Sir, can you tell us what happened please?” A dark-haired woman who stands to my shoulder asks me. She has a friendly yet no-nonsense face.“I only just arrived when I saw that fucker,” she shoots her eyebrows up at me. “Apologies, I mean that man leaning into Harper. He had her pinned to the damn wall.” She nods her head and takes a few notes on her small pad. Do they still carry those things around?“And what happened then?” It’s kind of obvious to me what happened then surely, she can see that, I get she’s only doing her job right now but my mind is on Harper.Another female office took her inside and is questioning her in the comfort of her own home. No doubt they will insist she gets checked out. Knowing Harper she will refuse. And I can only imagine that by how her sister is already downstairs with all the commotion outside her house. All I want to do is put my arms around my baby and hold her tightly into my chest to comfort and protect her.I rake a hand through my hair

HarperIt’s been two days since the incident outside our house and staying with Levy is like living in a dream. The man cooks, I mean he actually cooks using all fresh ingredients and prepares everything from scratch.He made us a delicious smoked salmon yesterday evening with fresh long green beans and mash. For breakfast today he flipped pancakes for Taylor and I. She sat there grinning like a girl who’d been given a year’s supply of candy floss. Sure, I make them sometimes but not very often. Between taking care of the house, my work shifts, college and college work I don’t have time in the mornings. In fact, I always feel like my back is up against the wall.This is luxurious, his house is much bigger than ours and everything about it is spacious. It only hits me now since I’ve been staying here for two nights. Funny how I never realized it all the times I came to play and then later years study with Dylan or stayed over. The kitchen patio doors are slightly open allowing in the c

LevyI have no idea which way my conversation with Dylan will go. So far, since I have been back from Montana, things have been okay-ish. However, the glue that is holding us together right now is Harper and the events that took place two nights ago. It makes me burn up with rage that another man has tried to hurt her. I hope he rots in fucking hell.It's too early to pour myself a strong drink, not that I am much of a drinker but right now my gut churns waiting for Dylan to come into the office. I’m seated behind my desk, but that’s a bit formal, right? Maybe I should go sit on the black Chesterfield sofa in front of the doors that open to the back. Mm, maybe too informal. Oh, fuck it, he’s my son for goodness’ sake surely I can handle a man-to-man conversation. So why the hell do I feel like my stomach wants to drop to the ground?“Hey,” he says as he saunters in like he has no cares in the world. But we know he does. He loves Harper not like his girlfriend anymore but she is his be

HarperIt’s been two weeks since the attack and I am going to see a therapist on Monday evening after college. I have managed to change one of my shifts over to the Tuesday. Am I nervous? Yes, because I have hardly spoken about it not even to Levy. Who I hasten to add is treating me like I am porcelain.The man is swoony no two ways about it. He’s bought me home hand-picked flowers from the meadow not too far away from where we live. It made me smile when he presented them to me with a piece of green string tied around them at the base. The way he planted a gentle kiss to my cheek sent butterflies swarming in my stomach.Even though I am still insanely attracted to him and want him, I can’t go to the next step. Something has shut down inside of me and I desperately want to get it back. Levy is being as patient as a saint. We kiss and cuddle and of course I get turned on, let’s face it, Levy would turn a nun on. He’s handsome and sexy, he’s hot with a capital H. Still, I run into a men

LevyI’m rooting for my girl; it’s the day of her therapy session and I am hoping that it goes well for her and she can open up to the therapist. She’s going private, I wouldn’t take no for an answer and arranged everything for her. Dr Mullins comes with some amazing references and assures me that she has handled plenty of cases similar to Harper’s. Still, I’m nervous as hell for Harper.To distract myself I pick my mobile up from the sofa by my side and hit Lex’s i.d. What I need is to get out of the house. Dylan and Lacie are on a movie date, they’re watching a re-run of a Stephen King movie. Not what I’d call a romantic date, some kind of horror but he assures me that Lacey loves Stephen King books and movies.Lex picks up, I can hear his kids screaming in the background. “What’s up, Man?”“Ah, nothing you know. Just, well, okay, Harper has her first therapy session and I’m kind nervous for her.”“Hey, that’s normal. You wouldn’t have a heart if you didn’t care about her. How is sh

Harper“How are you feeling, Sis?” Taylor asks as we sit in the ice-cream shop in town. It’s one of those retro, 1950’s places that doesn’t seem like it has made it into this era, but we love it. There are pictures of Steve McQueen, Elvis and Marilyn on the walls. The seating is peppermint bench seats with pale pink tables. Kitsch but it works, this is one of the busiest places all year round in our small town.“I’m doing okay, exhausted but you know,” I shrug as I dig into my peppermint and mint-choc-chip ice-cream. Taylor has mango as she plays with it making it softer and swirling it. Her hair is tied off her face in a messy bun and her eyes are not looking as sunken as they used to. A saving grace.I think us moving in with Levy for those two weeks did her some good, she has proper structure, he was at home for her in the evenings whilst I worked my shifts and Dylan was mostly around and Lacey too sometimes. Levy cooked meals every night that were wholesome and rich in nutrients.

LevyI’ve just gone up to my room with a glass of water and a book from our downstairs library I created for Dylan when he was younger. It’s grown from children’s books to adult reads. It warms my heart that he and I share the same love for certain authors. My favorite being Lee Child and James Patterson. Sometimes we’ll have our own guy’s book club meet, and yeah bikers read too! I wouldn’t tell my bro’s they’d rib me for it because they’re like that, except maybe Lex he reads a lot too.There’s a knock on my door, “come in,” I say placing the glass on the table by the bed and my book I throw on the duvet. Turning, I see Harper which takes me by surprise since I thought it would be Dylan and Harper specifically told me she had college work to be getting on with after her shift.The way she looked when she saw her new gleaming car made my heart melt for her. Wrapping her in my arms and inhaling her mango shampoo almost sent me over the edge. I’m being patient with her, she needs all t

The Ex's Daddy Chapter 95
LevyI take in my son’s face and Harper’s. Both look expectant yet Harper looks as pale as a ghost. I worry for her. I worry what she will think when I tell her what happened all those years ago. Fuck, my heart is banging in my chest so badly, I wonder if they can hear it. And her mother is sitting on the edge of the sofa with Taylor next to her.This wasn’t exactly how I was picturing tell my son and Harper. I thought we would have more privacy and I could keep this away from her younger sister and her mother.I lean my elbows on my thighs and lean forward slightly. I stretch out a hand and take Harper’s in mine. She squeezes my hand. That’s a good sign and I let out a long, slow breath.“Dad, whatever it is it won’t change how we feel about you. You’re my father and I love you.” His words strike a chord in my chest; I swear my heart is going to crack. From the first moment I set eyes on my son at birth, he cracked my chest wide open. Not a day has passed where I haven’t wondered at
The Ex's Daddy Chapter 94
HarperI put the phone down and wonder how on earth I am going to explain this one to my mother and my sister. So far, they are in the bubble of momma being home like everything is peachy and the roses are blooming in the garden.My heart feels like it is having palpitations. More men around the house? This does not sound good and I am frightened to the core for Levy. Whatever he has gotten himself into, I am not sure I can deal with that. I have to think of my younger sister and my mother. Who right now, my mother that is – does not need any upset or stress in her life.And why all of a sudden am I some kind of target? What the holy shit is all that about? There isn’t anything I can do until Levy comes home and tells us what exactly is going on.I go downstairs and call my momma and Taylor to come sit with me in the lounge. After of course I have double checked that the front door and the back door are locked and the windows too. It gives me a sense of eeriness doing this and Levy ha

Levy“Fuck,” I say out loud as Lex looks me in the eye. “So, you’re telling me that Jake had a kid brother?”Lex nods. We’re sitting in his den. It’s actually the basement of his house and runs about four hundred square meters. He has also sots of monitors and screens hooked up. The man runs a private surveillance company on top of being a marine. How he fits it all in is beyond me but he does. Of course, he has a whole team. No, a whole village of people that support him and his brothers.“And you’re telling me that the kid was around five or six when Jake died?”“That’s correct. Man, are you going to fucking sit down? You’re making me anxious with all that pacing. Besides, I just had this floor laid and you’re gonna wear it out.” His voice is good natured but I can tell that my stressing is stressing him out.I run my fingers through my hair, at this rate I am going to bald. “And stop doing that with your hair. You need to chill out, none of this was your fault, Levy.”The hell it w

HarperFear engulfs my body. Who is that man? Momma is talking telling us how happy she is to be free and I am happy for her. I am happy for all of us but now with this man showing me the slit your throat gesture - has shivers running up and down my spine.Taylor hasn’t noticed, she is too engrossed telling momma all about her classes and what she has planned for her birthday and her new boyfriend. Which does make my ears prick up. I didn’t even know my little sister had a boyfriend. I need to pay more attention. Let’s face it all those hormones will be on the rampage and she needs to have the sex talk very soon.“I can’t wait to see what you girls have done with the house,” momma says as I turn to her and force a smile on my face. As soon as we are home, I need to get hold of Levy and let him know what just happened. Maybe this is connected to why he left and went out of town.Am I in danger? Alarm bells start cursing through me as momma chats about her program. “I need to attend a s

HarperI can’t take my eyes off my momma. It is like seeing a new woman just off the catwalk or from a magazine cover for one of those mags that is like, oh, I don’t know – Homes & Gardens or something. She doesn’t seem to fit in a rehab center.“It’s really me, sweetheart. Come here, let me cuddle you,” Momma says. Damn even her voice sounds different. It’s not hoarse or brittle or angry anymore. It sounds soft and gentle, full of love.Taylor wraps her arms fiercely around my mother as if she is scared to let go, like a baby monkey holding on to its mother for dear life. The scene unfolds in front of my amazed eyes making my heart stutter. Is that a thing? A stuttering heart? It is now. Usually, I would have assumed only in a romance novel or for lovers, but honestly it has stuttered.“Harper?” Momma says tilting her head to the side. Her smile is wide and infectious making me smile back. God, please don’t want to slay me but seeing my momma so elegant, so put together and so downri

HarperHe left me breathless, like shaking legs, stars in my eyes and my heart jumping and flipping all over the place. Sex with Levy is out of this world! I am still recovering as I walk back across the street to my house where my sister will be waiting for us to go for my mother.We still have half an hour before we need to leave. Levy said he would come with us and cancel all his plans. Sweet of him but you know, this is something that I have to do with my sister on our own. I’m an adult, a big girl now and all my life it seems, I have done big girl shit. Today is no different.Of course, it would be good to have my man by my side to support me and place his arm around me. Only who would Taylor have? Exactly. I need to be there for her like I always was when it was just her and I against the world.Besides, I know that Levy has some pretty important shit to sort out himself. We still need to talk about that, not today, however. It can wait. I trust Levy implicitly and when he is re

Harper“Where are you going?” Taylor asks as she spoons cereal into her mouth.“Over to see Levy. Are you good?”She looks adorable with her bed-hair and rosy cheeks. The best is watching her eat with an appetite. For a hot minute or two, I thought she was going to have some serious issues with eating. Thankfully, whatever she was going through has passed and her appetite is restored.“At this time? You know we have to go for momma in,” she glances up at the clock on the kitchen wall. “An hour, Harper.”“I know but I feel like a shit about last night and I, you know,” I shrug my shoulder. “Kinda want to go over and see him.”“You better not be late back.” My oh my, she sounds like one of my old school mistresses back in the day.“No, ma’am. I won’t be late.”“Cut that shit out!” she says making me grin.I go over to her at the island and give her a kiss on the cheek. “Thanks, Sis.” She shrugs me off but I give her another kiss in any case.With a light step and fluttering in my stomach
The Ex's Daddy Chapter 88
LevyI have been awake most of the night thinking about this whole damn shitshow of a situation. Harper is absolutely right. I need to tell her. After all, if I want a relationship with her that is long-term based on trust, openness and honesty, then Harper deserves to know everything about me and what happened back then.Hell, I’ve carried the guilt and burden of this on me for eighteen years and I need to tell Dylan. My insides churn and I am not a man who suffers easily with a churning stomach. But all of a sudden, I feel like I have way too much to lose.Throwing the rest of the dregs of the black coffee down the sink, I swill out the mug and leave it on the side for later. I’ve got an early start to go meet up with the guys but first I need to drop in and see Harper before she goes off with Taylor to pick up her mother.Dammit, I missed her warm body in bed with me last night. I love the way she snores lightly; it’s like she blows bubbles in her sleep. When she is with me at nigh

HarperI let the tears fall as soon as he left the house. And I am beating myself up for pushing him so hard. It’s not like I don’t trust Levy, of course I do. But whatever is worrying him - which it is, because I could see the angst written all over his face – he needs to tell me.It upsets me that he is treating me like a child, although I know he regards me as an equal and an adult it just doesn’t feel like it right now. God, all these conflicting emotions are too much to handle.A gentle knock to my door, I lift my head and wipe my tears away. “Can I come in, Sis?” Taylor asks from the other side. I’m sitting cross legged on the bed clutching one of my favorite Teddy bears from when I was a kid. Back when things were normal and I had a non-alcoholic and junkie mother. Oh, and a father.“Yes,” I mumble. The door opens and Taylor comes in.“Are you okay? I couldn’t help but over hear most of it.”“I’m fine, it’s not like we’ve broken up or anything. I just need some space. He’s trea
