Lucas’ POVA month has gone by since Jackie brought our son into the world and it has been the best month and at the same time, stress filled. One thing I didn’t prepare for was how loud and fussy a baby could be. Even though the books said babies would keep their parents awake, Drake’s was too much. We barely slept a wink almost every night. He was always hungry. When I asked why he was fussy, my mother told me it came from me.From then, I didn’t complain but right now, it was three in the morning and Drake has been crying.My eyes were heavy, and my arms hurt from carrying him for two hours. Jackie had breastfed him, but he still continued to cry. He was either crying or refusing to sleep. I was sporting a headache already.“Hey, Drake,” I said to him as I rubbed his back softly. “Why don’t you close your eyes so daddy can go to sleep, hm?”The only thing I got was a burp as a response and when I felt a little warm weight on my shoulder blade, I knew he had thrown up. I sighed and

Lucas’ POVRookie CEO of Nexus Wealth Deals with Illegal Gang Race: Drug Trafficking and Drag Racing.My heart started to pound so fast in my chest and every sound around me muted. My phone suddenly appeared small in my hand as I stared at the screen, reading the headline over and over again. I took a deep breath and sat down on the closest couch then started to read the article. From start to finish, everything was about me racing illegally, mingling with people who did drugs at the racetrack, the team embroiled in illegal activities, with pictures of me being part of the group. It was over. There was no way I was recovering from this. Henry attacked me so well and I doubt there is anything escaping it.I searched up my company’s name, going on every social media platform but there was barely any article. I was partially relieved since I was just a newbie, but the attention was still on me, and this was social media. Digital footprints would affect me even if I escaped this and becam

Lucas’ POV“Dad?” What was he doing here?Why can’t he stop coming out in public so much when Henry could easily find him.“Dad?” Matt repeated and looked at me with wide eyes. “What is going on here?”I walked past Matt to him and stood in front of him, angry.“What are you doing here and—”“Move aside, Lucas,” dad said.We stared at each other for a few seconds before I stood to the side. He walked past me to where Matt was. I hesitantly turned around and watched Matt’s face. Shock and confusion was heavy on his face.“What…how?”Dad reached out his hand to touch him and he smacked it out of the way. I rushed over to his side and glared at Matt who looked like he was on the verge of exploding.“What the fuck is goin going on here?!” He yelled. “How are you fucking alive?!”Matt faced me and grabbed me by the collar, pulling me into his face. I held his shoulders, trying to put space between us.“Is this some sort of joke?” He asked in my face. “How much did you fucking pay for some

Jackie’s POVThe lack of sleep I have gotten for the past few days made me fear that I was going to pass out any moment I barely slept. It was already dawn and I could feel the new day but the urge to stay in bed was great. Ever since I gave birth to Drake, things changed. My body changed; my mood changed. My schedules changed. Everything about childbirth made me feel different. It was as if a new person took over the old me, a more mature-ish type of persona.I broke out of my thoughts and opened my eyes when I felt a warm weight around my waist. When it moved, my brain registered that it was an arm. I furrowed my brows for a few seconds in confusion before I remembered that Lucas was beside me. I smiled at the warmth of his arm and placed my hand over his that was resting on my stomach. His fingers flexed at my touch, making me smile. He moaned against the back of my neck, making me feel butterflies in my belly. I missed this. I missed us lying in bed and now, we were back together,

Lucas’ POVYesterday had been a stressful one and today, I had time to spend with my boys. Jackie was out to do some schoolwork, so I had to take care of them, not that I didn’t. Today Paul was with us so that meant I was taking him and his brother out with me. Drake was at an age where he was able to go out but as far as he was wrapped up nice. Which was why I got a two-seater fancy baby stroller with a plastic and net shield.Once the boys were dressed nicely, their bags filled with their food, water and snack, especially for an always hungry Paul, with some extra diapers, clothes and my work bag, I put them in the stroller and left the house. I wanted to spend some time in the park before Jackie returned home from school.I got to the park ten minutes later and found a bench under a big tree. I dropped the bag I was holding and sat down on the bench then pulled the stroller closer. I made sure the boys were facing me before unzipping my work bag. I took out my tablet and a notebook

Jackie’s POVEver since I saw the email stating that the scholarship I had applied for was a success, I have not been in the right state of mind. All I could think about was what Lucas would say or how he would react to the news.Looking at him now, it was hard to tell what he was thinking because of how blank his expression was as he read through the paper again and again. I knew this was going to be difficult. I had applied for the scholarship after Andrea sent me a link to the school since her family knew the dean. When I applied for it, I never thought he and I would get back with each other. I was scared now that we were back together. The scholarship would keep me out of the continent for years and it made me worried with fear.“Lucas?” I said his name softly.I watched the edges of his mouth twitch before it expanded into a smile. I was confused for a second before he looked up at me with an even bigger smile on his face. He opened his arms like before and I got even more confu

Lucas’ POVI returned to Rochester the following day the moment Ruth came to Atherton, saying she wanted to see her nephew. She was still pensive about Cindy’s son, Paul. She hated Cindy right from the beginning, even before Paul was conceived and her hatred now made more sense to her than before. So, when she texted me that she was in Atherton to see her nephew and not nephews, I knew what she meant. I already made her understand that hating a child that had nothing to do with how nasty his real mother was made no sense and she just told me she didn’t hate the boy.I just didn’t want any more bad blood between our families as our generation needed to move on and make amends from the damages created by our older family members. Which was why I was still stunned and somewhat relieved when the person who bought the night racing group was Matt Jefferson. I never knew the fucker had it in him to be good for fucking once.A knock on my office door made me blink out of my thoughts. I cleare

Everything around me felt as if I was in some type of bad dream that I desperately wanted to wake up from.Jared was beside me on the plane, trying to calm me down but his words were either distant or jumbled up.

Lucas’ POVPain, dullness and a slight feverish feeling was heavy on me as I struggled to open my eyes. I started to feel confused, wondering where I was and what had happened, especially why it felt as if I could not move. My chest felt heavy and at the same time, it felt as if I could not feel one side of my body.I opened my eyes and hissed as an ache hit my head. I blinked multiple times before my eyes opened properly. I raised my head and groaned when my arm hurt so badly. I looked at the arm and saw that the sleeve of my jacket was stained with blood.“Finally awake?” A deep voice asked.I tried to sit up and grunted when I realized that I was tied to the spot I was sitting in. I looked down at my body and saw a thick rope tied around my torso, arms and legs. I raised my gaze to the person and frowned when I saw Henry. He was sitting on a couch across the room, holding a gun and a glass of wine.“Untie me, you bastard,” I demanded, and he laughed with a shake of his head.“I kno

Jackie’s POVI felt like I was going crazy from all the influx of emotions inside of me.Anger, sadness, guilt, worry and shame.They were at war within me as I tried to clear my mind, to remain sane, to be hopeful. I was forcing myself to believe that it was not my fault. I was not at fault for losing Drake and was about to lose Lucas too. I felt so stupid all because I wanted to get a few school items. If I had just waited a little more, or forgot about it, a stranger would not have snuck into our home and taken my child.Tears formed in my eyes, and I let them fall, heating up my cold cheeks. I sniffled and began to cry softly. I had no idea what condition Drake and Lucas were in while I sat in comfort. I hated feeling useless. I wished I could do something to save Lucas and Drake, but I was useless. I was barely healed from childbirth and that made me even more angry.I curled my body on the bed and cried harder, trying to force the pain in my heart to seize. I grabbed a handful o
