Chapter 32JuliaIt was over. Almost anyway. The bastards who had broken into our home had been caught, and I had no doubt that they would pay. Ryan had been so pissed these last few weeks, he was so wary of everything. I always had an escort, wherever I went. Most of the time it was Ryan himself, but some days, he had work to do, so he would send one of his brothers to come. I had my own car still, the gift from James, so they would meet me and drive behind me until I was home, safe. I loved how much he cared about my safety, it proved how much he really did love me.I had been elated when he asked me to be his old lady. I kinda thought I already was, but apparently it had to be made official. I was hoping that this would still go ahead, seeing as they caught the ones who had broken into our home. After Ryan managed to detain the last guy, he handed him to Ink who threw him in a truck. He ran over to me and ki

 Chapter 34JuliaRyan let go of me and headed outside to one of the other rooms that weren’t really used. I knew James would be really annoyed that he had proposed, and I had accepted, but honestly, I didn’t really care. I loved Ryan. I had no doubt in my mind I was going to marry him.As I watched Ryan disappear into the room, Bella waddled over to me. She really was massive. “Are you sure there is just the one baby in there?” I laughed. “Yep. We checked, more than once.” She laughed. She was really glowing. Pregnancy really suited her, she looked beautiful. It made me feel a little broody myself. I couldn’t wait to start a family with Ryan. I knew he wanted kids, he had told me, especially since Bella started showing more. “So, I am totally taking credit for this engagement by the way” she laughed, as she hugged me. “I agree” I laughed back. &ldquo

Chapter 36BuzzMy intel had paid off. At 9am, the following morning, Tom Jackson left his little apartment on a quiet street in Queens, for his routine chiropractor’s appointment. We had called Holgate to let him know we almost had him, and then we would be on our way home. We had decided to rent a van and drive back to North Carolina. It will take around 8 hours with good traffic to get us back home. Then Julia and I would take a few days off to drive it back and then we can go wedding shopping in New York. She would love that.I was driving the van. I needed to stay out of sight or Jackson would know what was going on. Tank and Rider were going to get him on the street, Creek would be inside the van with Gears, waiting to open the doors to get him in, and then I would drive off. We sat outside the apartment block at 8:55 on the Tuesday morning.Finally, at 8:59, Jackson left the building. He looked up and down th

EpilogueJuliaIt had finally arrived…. My wedding day.After we learned of my shocking pregnancy, we had decided to move the wedding up to February. Even if I was showing by then, the dress would be able to be let out a bit. Bella had her baby the day after I found out I was pregnant. A beautiful baby boy called Samuel James Warner. They named him James after my brother.We decided to wait a few months before we told anyone that I was pregnant. It was too risky, especially after the awful morning sickness I had been suffering with. We just wanted to make sure the baby was fine before we told everyone. We told people that we were moving up the wedding because of problems with a supplier, and luckily, they believed us. Nobody commented on me not drinking, because I didn’t drink a lot anyway. We should be able to keep our secret for a little bit longer.I had set my alarm nice and early in the morning, n
