121 Locked in

***~~Soren~~****I wake up to Lilah's skin on mine.She's half on top of me, one leg draped over mine. Her arms lies across my stomach, and her cheeks rests on my chest.My eyes travel over body. I see all of her. Every inch.Her soft hips curve out from her waist, bare and warm. I can feel the heat radiating off her skin.I study her pretty face, the way she sleeps so peacefully, the slow rise and fall of her breast.She's perfect.So perfect, an ache rises deep in my stomach.My cock stirs. It's hard to look away, to pretend I'm not hard.God.I just had her last night, across every corner of this room.But I still want more.I brush a finger through her hair, a sick smile tugging at my lips.She shifts. Whispers something I don't catch.I shouldn't be this hard.My body reacts anyway. I shut my eyes, and shake my head hard, like I'm physically battling away those demons in my head asking me to put my dick in her.I force it down.Don't be a perv Soren.She must've been exhausted

122 No more shield

***~~Delilah~~***He kisses me— deep, intense, slow enough to steal my breath.I kiss him back just as fierce, our lips moving in sync.I can already feel my cunt twitching, my body melting into his.“Sir, what do you want for —,”Susan doesn't finish her words.I know she's frozen. I try to split from Soren, but he won't let me.His shameless ass didn't even break the kiss.I guess he meant it when he said ‘Let them see’“I'm so sorry…” Susan chips in and I hear her footsteps as she scurries off.Soren won't stop kissing me. He holds my chin up, keeping me firmly as he devoured my lips.I could barely catch my breath.Quickly I pull my lips away and he stares at me.“I told you I don't care who's watching, Lilah.”I roll my eyes. “Well, I do.” I blurt out. “Just like I should be home getting Liam ready for school. Where's June?”“Off to school.”“I should go,”“Why”“It's a workday, Soren.”“Call in sick. I'm the boss, I don't mind.”“Seriously?”His only answer is a smirk.“I'm su

123 Talking it out

***~~Delilah~~***“Baby, there's someone I want you to meet,” I tell Liam as I button his shirt.He lifts his brows. “Soren?”“No, sweetie.”He frowns. “When am I going to see Soren?”Okay, this plan includes Soren staying off Liam for a while, that way he's off target.Which I honestly don't understand by the way. It's not like I can't protect my own son.But no matter how absurd it seemed, I agreed to it.But Liam's not having it.I slipped the last button in and ruffle his hair gently. “You'll see him soon, honey. But until then I'm taking you to see his grandfather,”“Soren's granddad?” he repeats, eyes wide.I nod. “Don't you want to see him?”“I do.” He answers quickly, albeit with a confused look. “But why are we going to see him?”I exhale slowly. “Because uhm– you're Soren's friend, it's only normal his dad wants to see you,”He tilts his head. “Is he as kind as Soren?”“Absolutely, baby. He's a good man,”He grins. “All right Mommy. When are we going?”“This weekend,”I ki

124 Has me gagging

***~~Soren~~***I texted Delilah and hour before Knox asked me over for a drink.But I've been left unread.Sometimes I don't know what's running through her mind.One minute she's soft on me, the next minute she's detaching.But I intend to get to know her better.To build trust.Whatever it takes.Someone clears their throat.I look up. Hunter and Knox are both staring at me with their glass in hand.“What's up with you, Soren?” Hunter asks.“Me?”“You've been staring at that phone since you got here,” Knox observed, taking a sip of his drink.Hunter watches me, closely.“Reports from accounting,”That gets Hunter's attention and he smirks.“It's weekend. You don't revise reports on weekends and certainly not in a damn club,”Right.I exhale. “Delilah left all my texts unread,”Hunter groans. “I literally brought her to your doorstep. Don't tell me you fucked that up too,”“I didn't,”“Or maybe you should just leave her alone,” Knox blurt out.I glare at him. “Never,”They both sh

125 Lost in fear

***~~Delilah~~***“Soren!”Liam squeals, giggling on his chair.Seeing him makes my stomach dip.I've spent a generous amount of time ignoring him the entire day.But here he is, looking so hot in that black shirt, that clings to his arm, and exposing a bit of his chest.His dark hair is neatly styled, highlighting every magnificent angle of his face.And somehow my eyes dips low to his crotch, instantly noticing the swell filling his slacks.My breathing dulls, and I peel my gaze off him.Chiding myself mentally for even noticing.I push a breath down my lungs, willing myself to breathe.Soren goes over to Liam, ruffle his hair gently and lean in to kiss his forehead.“Your shirt, it's cute.” He says, his face beaming.Liam's eyes goes down to it and back on him. “My mom got it,”Of course I did.“I know,” Soren's smile widens.Then, finally, his gaze drifts past him. Past Alfred and directly to me.Our eyes lock.He smirks.“Hi, Delilah.” he says.My heart does a little flip.My m

126 Ask me again

***~~Delilah~~***“What if I tell you I won't?” He breathed out, staring right into my soul. “Will that count for something.My heart slams at it's ribcage. It was hard to force down the emotions starting to eat at me.His hand reach for mine but he stops himself, as if he's not sure he's allowed to touch me.“I'm sorry, Lilah. I really am,” he trails off. “I know you've heard it a thousand times and you probably don't want to hear it anymore but…”“Is this about Liam?” I cut in, stopping him cold.“What..?”I swallow. “Is your sudden interest in me because I had him?”That's when his hand goes over to mine. My eyes linger on the contact and then back to him.“It was never about that.” He blurts out. “I understand you're overwhelmed by everything and need time to process it. I can wait. No matter how long it takes to gain your trust.” His eyes pins me in place. “But I need you to know that’ve always loved you, Lilah. And it was never about having a kid or not,”Heat creep up my ches

127 Doing what's right

***~~Delilah~~***I'm in front of the mirror, trying to apply my lipstick for what feels like forever.I know I'm stalling.I'm just worried about later. It's going to be a really difficult conversation with Logan.Especially when he thinks we're on a date.It's hard to hurt someone who's been so nice to me.But I know this is what needs to be done.This is what's right for me.I'm not sure he knows that I'm aware he's been tipping Karen good money just to get me to be with him.But that's funny, I'm not even close to this said mother, how's she going to convince me?I'm going to talk to him about that too.I exhale, putting the lipstick down and straightening.Screw it!I'll just go get this over and down with.***I've gone over how this will play out over and over again.But still, my nerves grew as I wait for Logan.Just then, the doors open and he walks in. His face lights up as soon as he spots me.He walks over, pulling out a chair and settling down. “Dahlia, this is a nice

128 Be my guest

***~~Soren~~***My screen lights up and it's Delilah.I reach for it, fast, and with a smile creeping up my face.“You got me a new car?” Her voice is laced thick with disbelief.“You like it?” I mused.“Soren, you honestly didn't have to,” she breathed. “And it's the latest model, must've cost a fortune.”I lean back into my chair and smile. “Well, I can afford it, and I want you to have it,”I can hear her hiding a chuckle.“There's no winning in this case, is that right?”“That's right, baby.”“Don't call me that,” she groans out in that tone that tells me she likes it and trying to pretend not to.I bet she's rolling her eyes hard.“I have a long list of the names I want to call you, wanna hear it?”Her breathing slows. “Definitely not,” she mused. “But hey mister, you gotta slow down, don't want to get used to this,”“You should,” I blurt out. “Because giving is my love language, Lilah. Brace yourself,”“Gifting is your love language?” she repeats with a hoarse voice.I smirk, p

129 The reveal

***~~Soren~~***A month later….The Lancaster clan is buzzing with people from higher-ups, reporters, different media teams.It's the official reveal of the next Lancaster heir, the firstborn child.An occasion that holds every thirty years.Which means that an heir is mandated to have a successor before he or she turns thirty.Or at least someone pregnant by him.News has even spread that Dahlia Rhodes pulled out of Bsg and went back to Deloitte.We got a backlash for it of course but I managed to pull through.Now, Rebecca thinks she's left for good.Ashley too.Eden bows as I get to the front door alongside Hunter and Knox.Inside, Julian is standing arm-in-arm with Rebecca who's all beaming.Alfred is sitting at the head of the long table prepared for the elites.“Soren,” Julian calls as we inch closer with a smile on his face. “Go say hello to a few guests,”Seeing a smile on my father's face freaks me out.I'm not sure how often he smiles.I don't respond by words. I just nod

130 Not my heir

***~~Soren~~***June's brought in.She's on a beautiful ball shiny dress.I watch my baby and my heart simply aches for her.Beside me, Cameron stiffens like someone's just poured ice water down his back.His eyes snaps to me.I know he knows.But I don't acknowledge his gaze.My eyes stays glued to Rebecca.I can see the sheer excitement as everything's going as she planned.Ashley too.I catch her leaning over Rebecca as they whisper something I don't catch.I let them have that one.Let them merry. Let them think it's going good.But when it claps back, they won't be smiling.Of course the crowd erupted. Cheers.Applause.Until…“Does anyone have an objection to this?” Benjamin, the older blonde who's also the emcee asks, his eyes darting across the room.Silence.Everywhere is so quiet you could hear a pin drop.But I can feel it deep in my bone. That one person won't let this go.Rebecca stands. Just like I said she would.A smirk crossed my face but it dies off clean.Julian
