Gabe Lewis Novels & Stories

I just don't think I'm destined for pleasure. "I'll stay here with you then. It's a nice night, and I'm enjoying the view with the girl I love. What more could I ask for?" Lewis was a rare diamond in a sea filled with coal. He was like my helium, all he had to do was speak and I began feeling lighter than I had previously. I watched as his eyes glazed over slightly, and his look became distant. I had no doubt he was mindlinking the doctor about what had transpired.

"That's not an answer, Mrs. Leister." "It's the only one you're getting." She straightened even more. "And while we're being honest with each other. I'd advise you to stay away from Kade." My stomach dropped. "What?" "No one understands my boys better than I do." She glared at me. "Especially, Kade. He may be charming but he's complicated, Noah. He's more than you know and more than you could possibly untangle in the little time you try to know him." Then a small pause,

His gaze was filled with sorrow and tenderness. I didn't speak, just waited for him to explain. "Lewis is the child of my first love. I was only 20 back then. She betrayed me, and after being abandoned by the guy she was with, she died during childbirth. Before she passed, she entrusted her child to me. To protect her reputation, I accepted him as my own.
