Davis' P.O.V. Lisa is due to arrive soon for our workout session. I couldn't get the thought of her with some guy her dad involved her without of my head. It has played in my thoughts since I dropped her off at her apartment. More like she dropped herself off since she drove. She knows how to handle a bike well, and I'm all for it. Lisa is a very interesting woman. She has a sharp mind, a kind heart, and a playful demeanor. I was surprised when she asked me to teach her how to fight, but I was happy about it. God knows she needs to defend herself. Every woman should have the know-how, really. I taught Izzy, if only the basics since she protested the entire time. She's not into fighting, having grown up watching it. She's tired of it, and, frankly, desensitized from it. It gives me peace of mind knowing Izzy could handle herself if she needed to. I won't let what happened to her mother happen to her as well. I pulled my phone out, texting Lisa when she still hadn't showed 15 minu

Ch. 14 I'm So Sorry Lisa's P.O.V. "Where's auntie?" I asked Abi as I hid behind her small blanket. "Here I am!" I popped out with a smile. Her little happy squeals were music to my ears, reminding me why I'm doing what I'm doing. For her. For him. For them. There's no way in hell I am letting Dad hurt them…any of them. I will marry Chris and I will endure his abusive ways until I can defend myself. I promised Davis my time away from Chris and I plan to keep that promise. Chris and I are to see each other this afternoon. He tried to get me to come to his place, but a public setting is best for now. Seeing how violent he got last time, I knew I needed to keep him away from any closed doors. I convinced him to go to a car show with me. He seemed to be a car enthusiast, but I'm sure for him it's more for show than an actual passion. He seems the type to talk out of his ass when he doesn't know shit. Still, it was what saved me from meeting him at his home. I sighed realizing it was t

Lisa's P.O.V. I watched Davis hungrily. I was horny as hell, and I wanted him desperately. It felt like I had a craving that only he could satisfy. I ran my hand over those large muscular arms of his, working up towards his face. I pressed my half naked body against him, standing on the tips of my toes. My lips met his in a fervent passion, sucking and licking. My hands held him close, pushing him into me while pulling me into him, simultaneously. I know this is wrong. I know that I have to marry Chris and that I'll have to bear him a child. The rules to making a baby haven't changed. I will have to sleep with Chris, but all I want is Davis. I want him in me, on me, with me. There's no denying the hunger I have for him deep inside me. I want to pretend that it's not there, to make all this less complicated, but it's impossible. It's ingrained in me, and doesn't want to let go. He's safe, kind, warm, and caring. He's all that I want. All that I wish for now is Davis. "Are you sur

Lisa's P.O.V. Chris stood before me with accusation in his eyes. He smirked almost as if he were happy to have caught me with another man. I don't know how to explain this away. I thought I had gotten rid of him with my texts, but he somehow found me. Does he have a tracking app on my phone? This sick bastard. I felt the adrenaline kick in, forcing my heart to beat at a faster rate than I would have liked. Davis stepped in front of me, immediately making me feel safe. I didn't calm down though, because Davis can't beat Chris up the way he wants to. Chris would tell his dad everything and they would break the contract, causing Dad to lash out. "Let's go, Lisa. You're coming with me," Chris demanded. Not a word was spoken between Davis and I, but I knew he wouldn't let me go. He looked at Chris like he was ready to kill him. I really thought he might, but I don't need him going to jail for murder because of me. I was still trying to find a lie that was plausible enough for him t

Davis' P.O.V I placed Lisa on her passenger side seat, taking my place behind her wheel. I held my hand out for her to hand me the keys. My blood was still boiling and my heart was breaking. How dare he touch her? She was going to stay. I admired how adamantly she wanted to protect Lucas and Liv. She will set her own happiness aside for them. Willing to be broken and beaten to keep them safe and happy. I can never be mad at her for that, but God, do I wish she could understand that her happiness is just as important. She doesn't have to do this. We will all protect Lucas and Liv. They have many friends, a lot of them are just as powerful as her dad. I'll beat his ass if he ever comes for my girls. My girls. Lisa, Izzy, and Liv are my girls in different ways, but they each hold a big part of my heart. "Davis." Lisa's small voice brought me back to this moment. "I'm sorry." Her apology only hurt my heart further. She shouldn't be going through any of this. I grabbed the key
