Laura stared at Max as he looked at them with his eyes beaded with suspicion. What was with the look? She or Jackson has not done anything inappropriate. She had just being resting on his shoulder. It was Max who always looked at her weirdly.“Did you something?” Jackson asked calmly.Max rose his hands up in defiance. “What could I possibly want?” He asked calmly.Laura looked at Jackson, and noted that his face was set in harsh lines. Jackson wasn’t also finding Max particularly lively. So, it wasn’t just her too.Max sighed. “Guys, relax. I was just joking. Well, I don’t want to disturb you, because you’re obviously occupied with stuffs,” he said with a voice that dripped heavily with sarcasm.“Thanks for your good natured worries, we don’t need it. I will advice you cut your tongue from slipping statements that are quite inappropriate,” Jackson snapped.Laura swallowed slightly. She honestly thought that was a weak comeback, but looking at Max, his slight smile had vanished. So, i

Laura massaged her head slightly. Headaches.She slowly rose up from bed. She couldn’t believe she had slept back, knowing the type of awful dreams that greeted her. She was just so strange. She pulled at her hair and then, slowly made her eyes roam to the other side of the bed.Marcus wasn’t in bed. A frown tugged at Laura’s lips. He didn’t even make any effort. Jackson had said he had some ego issues thanks to Lin kidnapping her, but the least he could do was to kiss her good morning and make her feel nice. He didn’t need to do anything else.Why was this man like this?Anyway, it was no use to sit here and moan over his attitude. He wasn’t even home to complain too, so she just had to bear with it for the time being. “Ugh! So much for being a supportive mate,” she groaned.Marcus really needed someone to give him a hard reality check, because this ain’t it. What of her feelings? She had gotten a rude shock that he had impregnated some other woman, and at the same time, she got k

Laura couldn’t ignore the fear she felt no matter how hard she tried to. She had to leave this place. She placed as many portions of toast as she could in her plate, and ran up her room. She sat down, and went to the mini fridge in Marcus room, taking a glass of milk.Before sitting down, she realized she had not locked the door, and she did just that. Laura went back to her food, and ate as quickly as she could. She was still so scared, and hoped that Max would stat away from her. The last thing she needed was his unwarranted attention.She sighed as she drank her milk, and ate more of the toast. It was so delicious, and yummy. She wasn’t sure she could get enough of it. Ugh! So good. Lucien was definitely the best cook out of the brothers. Yes, she said it.She sighed, and slowly got up to her purse in other to take her phone. There might be some messages from her workplace, and mails too. Just because she was with Marcus now didn’t mean she would neglect that part of her life. Thou

Laura blinked in horror as Jackson held onto his head. She was so scared and worried that something was going to happen to him. “Please, stop,” she cried. “Is someone home?” She screamed on top of her voice.She had barely finished speaking, when Jackson pulled Max up, dragging him, and then, pulling his head into the running water. Max was thrashing about and screaming, but Jackson wouldn’t let go.When Laura thought that the whole thing wouldn’t get any worse, Jackson was repeatedly banging Max head on the counter. She screamed for help and finally, some men came in from the door, and helped to separate the men.Max was bleeding profusely, but Jackson despite the pain of earlier, seemed like he had been a spectator in the fight. Though, his eyes were brutally cold, and filled with rage.“You son of a bitch, if I see your hands on Laura again, I’m going to make sure I cut it off. Don’t even dare with the Johnson’s or you would have yourselves to blame,” Jackson threatened.Laura wat

Marcus rolled on his side, hoping to grab Laura in bed, only for him to hit the floor with a thud. He gasped in shock, as he rose up from the floor in shock. What was that?Marcus let his eyes skim through the length and breadth of the bed, but he didn’t see any figure that remotely looked like Laura, and that sort of made him upset.Where could she had gone?His hands slowly slid to the back of his head, and he massaged the growing migraine. He wanted to hold Laura tight, and kiss her lips sporadically, but that wasn’t happening.Marcus groaned slightly as he made his way to his clothes, wearing them quickly. He had to find her, and give her that kiss. He walked out of the house, struck by how quiet the whole house was. “Laura,” he called, but received no response.Was she even at home? Of course, she was. Where else would she go this evening. He knew fully well that Laura wasn’t an outgoing person. She definitely liked to do things on her own, and didn’t like to go out much. It was

Laura stopped midway, her worry getting ahead of her. There was no way she was going to sleeping in that room. She would have to make sure that it never happens. It was something that she had to do, and she would do it. Ok, maybe she was being overdramatic, but Marcus needed to see that he was hurting her feelings.She went back into the room, and noted that he was back out. That was just right. He had come out because she had gone. The man. She barely looked at him as she walked over to her side of the bed, grabbed her pillow and made her way out of the room.She made sure that this time, that the door pulled from the hinges. Well, it didn’t do that though. But, she knew he flinched, and that was enough for her.“What does he think he is to keep doing this all the time?” She grumbled as she made her way down. “If he is already tired of me, why can’t he just say it. Instead, he keeps giving me some stupid cold attitude like he is a kid,” she grumbled.She took the stairs, two steps a

Jackson walked slowly out of the bathroom, only to stand at the doorway. It was evident he wanted to give her some privacy, yet not wanting her to be on her own, so he could be able to assist when she needed him.Laura was grateful for that. She waited for a while for her hormones to stabilize, and wondered slightly could be cause of it.Was she pregnant?She swallowed hard in shock. If she was pregnant, then she was going to be a mother. How could this happen right when she and Marcus were going through a rough patch?She barely had an answer to that question, but one thing was certain, she was not going to tell Marcus till she was sure that they were ready to be parents.Laura pulled herself up, and walked over to the washing basin once more, cleaning herself up. She would have to talk to Marcus, and hope for the best. Someone had to be the matured one in their relationship, and she decided to be just that.Lost in thoughts, Laura pulled away from the basin, and walked headlong onto

Marcus stood at the door of his room watching Laura sleep. He bit his lips slightly as he watched her. There was an emptiness in his chest as he looked at her. He growled as he slid his fingers through his hair. He felt ashamed of his actions, and he wanted to correct them, but he hardly knew how to do that.Fine, he had been upset, but to hit Laura the way he had not once or twice had been borderline wrong. He slammed his hand on the wall in frustration. But, was it actually his fault? He couldn’t imagine anyone touching his mate, even if it were his brothers. It felt wrong on so many levels, and he hated it.“I…”Marcus turned around and his eyes met Laura’s. She was trying to sit up, and with the way her eyes went round when she noted that it was him, he knew she was sore afraid of him. This was not the type of partner he had imagined he was going to be to her. He had brought home an unwanted pregnancy, though he strongly believed that the baby was not his, but nevertheless, that
