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

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 smiled as soon as I opened my eyes. Last night had been amazing as memories of it came flooding my head. I rolled onto my side and smiled wider when I saw the man of my dreams laying asleep with his bare and muscular chest open. I bit my lip and placed my hand on his smooth chest, loving the feel of his rigid muscles under my hands. He moaned when I moved my hand down to his abs, running my fingers around them. I was tempted to push my hand into the blanket covering his hips and legs. I shifted my hand up to his face and ran my fingers around his sharp jawline, following the line of his perfect jawline. I touched his pointed nose before touching his soft lips. My core tingled at the memories of how he had given me ultimate pleasure with his mouth and I still blushed when I remember how I had squirted the first time he did it. I felt his lips part and I tensed, hoping he wasn't awake. When he didn't open his eyes, I grinned and scooted closer to his body.I eyed his be

|||We went touring around, finding delight in the beauty of the city. We had left our hotel at midday and had our tour guide walk us around the place, taking in the magnificent buildings centuries old. The chatter in public was enough to make me feel welcome and relaxed, almost as if I was used to the place.I lifted my camera and took a picture of a statue in front of a tall building crowded with people while the tour guide spoke to Lucas behind me. As I dropped the camera, I felt one of the phones vibrating in my purse. I had Lucas' phone with me and we left our phones on vibrate. So, not knowing whose phone was ringing, I unzipped my purse and checked them.Lucas had told me to ignore whenever his phone rang as he wanted to have time for me. All I did was tilt my head to see who it was and I raised an eyebrow when I saw a call from someone named Cindy. I furrowed my eyebrows, trying to remember if I know the person but I came up with nothing. The only people I knew were Axel, Bar
