"How can I not.Such good news.As soon as you'd like we can make preparations for your wedding and invite all the family and friends.Alex said you had something small and didn't want to go all out with all the trimmings because I'm still unwell."He said that,why didn't he have the decency to warn her ahead about all of this."Yes...yes."She said."Your health is important.I didn't want you to exert yourself.A wedding is hard work and takes a lot of energy but I promise as soon as you're strong enough we can start planning whenever you want.""I appreciate your concern dear.A real traditional spanish wedding is what you gonna have.I'll teach you all there is to know.""I can't wait."Avery beamed."My son found love."She was close to tears Avery can see that."A mother's wish has finally come true.I always knew there was a woman out there for my son. He isn't the monster he thinks he is.Thank you Avery."She gently cupped Avery's cheek before leaving.Avery went after her but was stopped by
"No..."The word inaudible as she whispered it."Nicole wouldn't...-"He can see the news shocked her,she's gone completely white."She wouldn't...she wouldn't do this to me."Yet as she said the words she didn't believe them at all.Her own sister."She lied to the police and said you and Brian planned this whole thing but I didn't believe her.I knew something wasn't right.So I asked for some time alone with her.I confronted her with the facts she admitted it to me alone. Then she threw herself on me saying if I wanted your name to be cleared then I have to make it worth her while."She couldn't hear anymore."Stop!stop it!"She said."I know my sister can be selfish but she would never do this.""Do you even know where she is?"He asked."Has she called you."Silence."The truth is staring you in the face yet you refuse to believe it.Your own sister was ready to sell you out to save her own skin.And still you're in denial about that. She even tried to blackmail me when I didn't fall for her sche
"Do you mind putting on something.""Don't behave like a scared little virgin sweetheart.There's nothing you haven't seen before besides we both know you love it when I'm naked."That made her uncover her eyes."No I don't."She lied a familiar tingle heated up her entire flesh as she drank him in.Damn but he's magnificent she thought as her gaze ran down his front."Those gorgeous eyes say a different thing."Avery forced her gaze away to meet his.He turned away from her to continue what he'd been doing,putting on a clean bandage.It's clear he's been struggling to put it on,going over she placed her hands over his,he froze their gazes locked in the mirror."Let me help you."She said,slowly he removed his hands.It was gonna be hard to concentrate with him standing naked next to her.Alex knew making her touch him won't bode well for either of them.He wanted her.Desperately.Him being naked won't stop him from jumping on her at least if he'd been dressed than he would've had the control to
"Why don't you take me home,that way we can finish what we started."Her hand was about to slip into his jacket but Avery caught it and shoved it aside not to gently she pushed her away from Alex and stood between them."I don't appreciate your hands all over my husband.So please if you don't mind we were in the middle of something."Angrily she glared at Alex,how can he just stand here and let this woman grope him like this with so many around."Do you know who I am."She asked Avery."Have you told her about us."She looked at Alex."We were engaged once."Avery's gaze ran back and forth."He's my soul mate.I love this man.Did he tell you he called me to come to Vegas so we can hook up."Avery stared at him in disbelief,surely she was lying.She must be."That's enough Paola!"He ordered."Don't listen to her,she's lying."He told Avery.Is she Avery asked herself or is Alex trying to hide his illicit affair.Gosh she has no idea what to think or who to trust.What if Paolo is telling the truth."M
But mostly how does he know she loved it. "How..did..you-..."She couldn't even browse any words,her eyes fell back on the sparkling diamonds,shaky fingers glide over the exquisite piece of jewelry she's at a loss of words."As my wife you'll have everything your heart desires."Avery can't believe he'd actually done this for her.But why.When whatever they have won't last.Then why is he doing this."As beautiful as it is.I can't accept it."She snapped the box shut and slid it over to him,but one big hand closed over hers."You can't refuse a gift Avery.And I won't accept your no.""Alex please I-...""Consider it my way of apologising and saying thank you for what you've done."One cue a huge bouquet of red roses was brought to her,Avery who's so stunned only stared wide eyed at the roses."I take it roses aren't your thing."He asked after a while when she only stared at them dumbfound."No,I uhm..I didn't expect this."She answered truthfully. "Surprisingly these happen to be my favourite
How can he do this to her,make her body respond the way it does she's still wearing her panty it was damp from her climax.He on the other hand is still fully clothed she can say without a doubt that her body no longer belongs to her but to him.Whatever she is or has it all belonged to him now.No man will ever compare to Alex.Grey eyes stared into brown eyes,Avery reached out to ran her finger along his jaw,he grabbed it between his teeth and nibbled on her finger.She's so scared to lay herself bare in case he might see her true feelings, she's afraid to even show the slightest emotion.Cause she knows Alex will see her truth and once that happens,he'll pull away from her.Any small gesture of affection will definitely send him running off."Let me." She said covering his hands with her own when he wanted to undress himself. Their eyes locked for a second then his hands slip away.One by one she opened the buttons of his shirt,the darkness of his olive skin tone gleamed under the moonlig
"Geez Avery why are you making such a big deal out of it.You here so that means I was right about him not making you go to jail.""The only reason why I'm still here is because I had to marry him.""Why didn't you invite me to the wedding.No wonder you wearing that big diamond.You didn't waste time sis at least one of us will have a better life.I always knew you would do good for yourself and I was right.Married to a billionaire."She rushed over to the table and grabbed the watch that was on it."Put it back Nicole.""It's a Rolex sis.I can get good money for this besides I doubt Alex will notice if it's gone he probably has a whole drawer full of them.Is he here or someone else?Does he know about your past.What you used to be and do.""There's no shame in what I did for a living in the past Nicole.So stop making it sound so horrible.Give me back the watch."Avery held out her hand to her."My advice.Don't tell him unless if you prepared to lose all of this."She waved her hands around
"Alex I was only letting you know.We managed perfectly well when you weren't here."He isn't too happy about the idea but he is glad that his mother will be in good hands.He never thought he'd ever say this but he trusts Avery more than he ever trusted any woman before."Fine.I expect you to take it easy and ask Claire for help if you need rest."He reached inside his jacket pocket."Before I forget. This is for you."He slid two credit cards towards her."As my wife you'll get a monthly allowance spend the money on whatever you want."Avery stared dumbfound at the cards,she can't believe it."I don't want your money Alex.I have a job.""Not anymore."He said matter of fact."My wife won't work.It's my responsibility to provide for you and the triplets and our unborn baby too.Your only job is to take care of our kids and yourself.Looking after the family and the household is your responsibility.Leave the rest to me."She appreciated how he said..our baby..and not his.How he referred to them a
