Book Five: Brent's Story Brent POV“Congratulations!” I extended my hand for a handshake, but Flint pulled me for a hug. It was his wedding day, and he was smiling happily at everyone. During the ceremony, I saw him take out his handkerchief to dab at his eyes. Still, before he put it back into the front pocket of his pants, he interrupted the ceremony, pulling at Anna’s veil to wipe her tears, too. The crowd gathered at the Basilica de Arkadia to witness this historical event, especially the women, swooned. A collective gasp was heard in the entire hall, but the couple seemed oblivious.They were lost in each other to factor in their surroundings. That moment, I believe, won him the hearts of Arkadian. If they doubted his intentions for marrying their newly installed Queen. Now, they expressed praise for my friend. We all witnessed his devotion to his wife. He was willing to play second fiddle as she assumed her post. If it were some other weakling, his pride could not take

Brent POV “But I don’t know where to start. How did you court your wives?” I asked the Ford brothers and Noah as we gathered around the mini-bar.  I was holding a shot glass in hand, drunk as f*ck, but still lucid enough to know what I wanted to say.   It was my desperation talking, seeking answers. I had never courted anyone.  The Ford brothers, Charles, Rowan, Marcus, and Noah Hunter, looked at me as if I had grown another head.  Noah spit out his drink.  It was a good thing he was able to think quickly and let his shot glass catch everything, or he would have splashed it all over us. &nb

Brent POV I felt like a specimen under a microscope as Carlo Bianchi circled me.  He made me stand while he studied me from every angle, running a critical eye over me.  Next, he made me sit in front of his vanity chair and mirror. He twirled my hair and parted it in various directions while he looked at my reflection in the vanity mirror.  Then, he took out the scissors, and I began to panic.  “What are you going to do?” I nervously asked when he started to snip at my hair. “I am making you more attractive.  You have a gorgeous face, but you bury it under

 Brent POV Beth’s words felt like an attack.  Luckily my little girl interrupted.  "Mommy, Daddy had a makeover for you so he could look better than Dr. Roberts."  What a save! I wished the floor would open up and swallow me when my cute, talkative daughter snitched on me, especially since her voice was loud enough for everyone in the lobby to hear. Sweat beaded on my forehead and neck in embarrassment.  I had never gotten this much attention until now.  I could feel people staring at me and self

Beth POV“What is wrong with you?” I asked Brent after he came down from Krizzie’s bedroom.We went to dinner as planned, and Krizzie was over the moon.It was a rare event for Krizzie—the three of us sharing a meal because Brent and I alternated taking care of her most of the time. We co-parent.Brent even bought the house next door to be effective in our parenting.In this way, Krizzie has easy access to both parents. Though I am the main parent in this set-up, Brent helped as much as he could. Plus, he was a good provider. He even bought this house for Krizzie for convenience and easy access. Brent sat on the couch in front of me. “What are you talking about?” He acted clueless, which added to my frustration. “Why are you messing up our relationship?”“I am not messing up anything. You did.” He told me. “Since when?” Now, it was my time to be confused. I could not recall a time when I had become errant in our agreements pertaining to our co-parenting set-up. Brent did not s
