Chapter 51
Keegan POV:
“Don’t doubt yourself,” I said with the shake of my head. “I am not upset about anything you said. It’s more that I don’t want you to compare me to him.”
“You’re nothing like him,” she whispered.
“But you were scared of me when I opened the door.” The headlights behind us again intruded on the moment, but Vianne didn’t seem to notice them.
“No. Not because I think you would hurt me. Just that I would mess up what we have going.”
I opened up my arms for her. She quickly scrambled into my embrace, her fingers immediately seeking my hair. I loved when she did it without hesitation. I rose with her tightly pressed against my chest.
“Nothing will make me turn away,” I said, nuzzling her ear and neck. “Every… couple fights, baby. But this time, it’s my insecurities that are upsetting me. Not you.”

Keegan POV:“Do you think I am man enough to handle you?” I asked in a husky whisper in her ear. Her hands tightened along with mine, resting on her stomach. With the slightest move, I let her feel what seeing her in that dress did to me. Her nails gently bit into my skin, alerting me that it wasn’t the time or the place.“Yes,” she hissed. “God, yes.” Her ass swayed left and right, almost making me groan aloud.“I’m gonna get you for this later.”I grinned against her skin, nipping it lightly. “I am looking forward to it.”“I can feel that.”The witch teased me with another dance of her hips. God, I needed to get her home. My heart, fortunately, decided to remind me of why we were at a restaurant. I didn’t want her to feel that she was nothing more than a job to me. That she was more than a fling. To do that, I had to at least show her a good tim

Keegan POV:“Let go, damn it,” Vianne hissed, trying to pull me away from the asshole. I was as livid as he was, as he continued to spit out vulgar shit to her.“Apologize to her,” I growled as I pushed his gushing nose against the wall again. He was lucky I held back from breaking his arm. His companion, wide-eyed and looking for a fight too, stepped forward.However, Vianne tripped him up with an extended foot and fist to his chest, causing him to fall onto his back in pain.“Dressed like she is, going out with scum like you,” the man said through his bloody teeth. “What the hell did you expect?” How did he come up with that stuff? He didn’t know anything about me.Vianne stood beside me with a flushed face, breathing heavily, pissed as hell, but she only shook her head. “They are going to call the cops,” she said firmly to me, fisting a hand in the back of

Keegan POV:“Any word on Claire?” Vivian asked from Clement’s right.Jarred shook his head. “That is the thing. There is nothing about what to do with the kid. He has you last seen with the child, but that is it.”“He knows that I won’t just leave her with anyone,” she explained softly. “So, he put a price on my head and that I am traveling with a little girl. Brant probably thinks I have no one to turn to, but the fact that I have such a large sum of money at my disposal makes this method the only solution for him. Is there any indication that the congressman or the public knows anything about my disappearance?”“There is nothing about the congressman putting this price on your head, just his son. But that could be only because he is a public figure,” Jarred said. “As for the public, the divorce proceeding has been announced.”“Divorce?” Clement g

Keegan POV:The following morning, when I woke up, Vianne had already disappeared. I went to look for her thinking she was in the gym. Instead, when I didn’t find her there, I sprinted downstairs and found Vivian, Tory, and Claire surrounding Vianne. Vivian had a pair of stained white plastic gloves, Claire’s eyes were wide as she looked at her mother and TOry had a pair of scissors and a comb.“What is going on?” I asked as I walked toward them.“It was time she got a new look,” Tory answered, smiling.“Dennis made it clear she had to,” Vivian said. “Her long hair is easily recognizable.”“Yup!” Tory quipped, holding up a long ponytail.My eyes widened in shock. “How much did you cut?”“Mommy said her hair can go to sick girls,” Claire said as she circled her arms around her waist, looking up at me. “She is still pretty.&

Keegan POV:I groaned as I got off the cycle that Claire had insisted on me riding. It was for a child a little bigger than her, but for her amusement, I had allowed it. “Fuck,” I hissed. A giggle made me aware that I wasn’t alone. “I will put in twenty in your jar later, princess.”“Mommy said the f-words count for double,” Claire said with another giggle.“Claire,” Vianne said loudly as she pulled up behind me. “He is hurting right now. You can get money from him later.”“Thanks for the help,” I grunted, leveling a glare in her direction. “I haven’t ridden such a small bike. Give me a break.”Vianne smiled and pressed her lips to my cheek. “I’m sorry, honey,” she said cheekily.“I’m sorry too, Keegan,” Claire said. “I am just playing. Swear words are okay if you are in pain.”I g

Keegan POV:Troy must have sensed that I was having a heart attack because he placed a hand on my shoulder. "Relax, Keegan. This is only a precaution.""What the hell are you talking about?" I said breathless and in all-out panic mode. "Is that what I think it is?""Keegan," Vianne called from behind me. "Calm down!"I was freaking out, but the idea of her pregnant… Sure, I wanted that with her. It was the fact that the timing was wrong that was making me panic. There was still too much up in the air."He's making me take the test just to rule it out before he gives me new birth control pills since I refused to be physically examined." I turned to look at her, finding an angry blush on her face. Her eyes darted to my cousin and Ricki who stood a few feet away, looking awkward. "Thanks for making an already awkward situation worse." She stomped toward the house, nearly slamming the door open to get inside.I groaned and tug

Keegan POV:“She is watching television, by herself,” I said, closing the distance between us. “Why didn’t you just tell me?”She shrugged, fingering the comforter on the bed beneath us. “I didn’t know how to bring it up without making things all weird between us.”"Okay," I said, kneeling in front of her, between her thighs. My hands slid over her jeans, watching her closely. "Please don't keep things like that from me again, okay? I don't like it."She nodded. “What about all this freaked you out so much?”“I wasn’t that freaked out,” I countered.She rolled her eyes. “Keegan you looked like you had been run over by a train. Don’t lie to me.”"I'm not going to," I said, taking a deep breath to find the right words. "The idea of you being pregnant isn't the problem, sweetheart. It's the fact that there is still so much that has to go

Keegan POV:I loosened my shoulders and took off my t-shirt to start a routine on the rowing machine. Twenty minutes into it, Vianne and Claire came in to join me in the gym after they asked if they could. As if I'd turn them away. I watched as Claire stood, smiling in front of the mirrors on a mat, dancing in place. Why did it hurt to see her so happy?Vianne watched her daughter for a couple of minutes and then joined her, after turning on the stereo. She looked at me and raised an eyebrow in question. It was obvious that she wanted to know if it was okay. I nodded, continuing my work out as they danced together to the music.It wasn't until several minutes later that Claire twirled toward me. She approached me shyly, maybe a little coy, and surprised me with her question."Will you dance with me, Keegan?" I'd never deny that smile, the dimple in her cheek, and the flash of adoration in her eyes. I smiled at her and nodded. After a quick sweat wipe-down
