Se connecterBradley was back at the place where it all started. As he looked at the steel structure being erected before him, he had an insane urge to tear it down with his bear hands, then he would tear up the stupid contract that he and his team worked so hard for and then jump back on his plane and head straight into the arms of his lovely mate. He became so busy that his conversations with Trishelle were sometimes less than five minutes. He knew the distance was a strain for her as well. He could see it in her eyes, and everything within him screamed to get back to her. He was so distracted, barking at Lorenzo every two seconds to be sure that Trishelle was well, that the doctor felt like he couldn’t even take a bathroom break. He was no better with his pack members, and Sammy was going through the wringer to ensure that she was safe and not left alone for too long.Surprisingly, James turned out to be the only one he felt he trusted to take care of Trishelle more and more, leaning on his onc
It’s been more than three weeks, and Bradley looked like he was no closer to ending his business than he was when it started. Some paparazzi snapped his photo, and now he has new requests for meetings and appearances coming out of his eyeballs. He was always mature, even as a kid, just as a future Alpha should be, but right now, he felt like throwing himself on the floor and throwing a tantrum any four-year-old would be proud of. He looked at Martha’s sharp glare and knew that she knew what he was thinking, and he did not want her “you ain’t gonna embarrass your mother” response.He sighed, closing his eyes and rubbing his temples. He was currently behind the scenes of a commercial, shooting an up-and-coming actress using one of his company’s latest products. He briefly remembered agreeing to this, but not to his sore behind actually being here. He was then to take her out for a late lunch, acting like he was grateful for her well-paid sacrifice, and allow someone to take photos so hi
Bradley flew in his private jet to the location of his new building. Sam was with him, heading his security detail. He would have loved to leave him with his mate, but Samuel was there. Martha sat opposite him, busy typing away, arranging and rearranging meetings and schedules. Bradley decided that he would take the next two weeks to get as many things done as would require his physical presence. He video-chatted with Trishelle every day, his desire for her almost a distraction. He even scheduled the call when she had her next doctor’s visit, and hearing the sound of his pup’s heartbeat made him cry. Trishelle got a recording and sent it to him, the sound of his lullaby every night.He also kept in touch with James and Goldmoon. He was worried that his members would be angry or at least disappointed, but they all supported him and held things together. He was surprised that Samuel stepped up, under Sam’s guidance, and proved himself. Of course, with his aunt offering her support and a
Trishelle knew that she needed to say something, but what, she wasn’t sure. She wasn’t even sure why she stopped him, but the look of hopelessness tugged at her heart. This man is the father of her child, and even though it happened in the way it did, that was one fact that would never change. Besides, James has made so many changes for her that she knew it was best to tell him the truth. When he placed his finger beneath her chin and lifted up her face to meet his, she knew she could not lie to him. “Honestly, James, I’m not too sure myself what happened today. Why I said what I said,” she whispered. At his conflicted look, she cleared her throat. “I mean, I get why I felt that way when that woman looked at Bradley like that, he’s my mate after all,” James winced, and Trishelle tightened her grip on the hand she still held. “But what I’m not sure about is why I felt almost the same way when she looked at you, too.”James’s heart began to pound, his mind racing with the possibilities.
Trishelle groaned and turned, blinking sleepy eyes. She yawned and stretched, realising that she was alone in bed. Turning, she looked at the little clock on the nightstand and realised it was almost 11 pm. Her stomach growled, and she rubbed her moving belly. The pup was obviously upset that she missed dinner. She shuffled to the bathroom with a smile on her face at the memory of the delicious “dessert” she had with Bradley a few hours before. She took a quick shower and dressed in a simple nightgown, wrapping her robe around her. Making her way downstairs, she headed straight to the kitchen.Opening the fridge, she spotted tonight’s leftovers and began taking out the containers, ready to heat up a plate or three for herself. The sound of someone clearing their throat behind her made her squeak, and she spun around. James was there, leaning against the island, a smile on his face. He enjoyed looking at the way her hips looked in the satin cloth covering her as she leaned in the fridg
Trishelle pushed on Bradley’s chest, directing him to her bed. She pushed until he fell onto his back, and she stripped out of her clothes. The sight of him, naked and dripping wet, made her arousal that much stronger. She wasn’t sure if it was because of the pup, but she had been feeling more and more horny as the days went by. She held back, but not today. Today, she was going to have her fill, and her mate better deliver or there would be hell to pay.A small voice whispered that if Bradley wasn’t enough, there was always James to finish the job. The thought of the two of them made her arousal surge through her, and Bradley’s nostrils flared as he sensed her desire. Shit, it was so strong, it was almost like she was in heat. It almost made him dizzy, and his manhood stood at attention, poking out from the towel. Trishelle saw and licked her lips, making Bradley even harder. It’s been a while, and he craved to be inside her.His eyes locked with hers, heat and desire mirrored within
