Davis's POV“I'm so, so sorry” I apologized, but the girl didn't look like sorry would solve this one. “Davis, please. I beg you, let me go. I didn't sign up for this” she cried. Her tears were rolling down her cheeks and when I took a step forward to wipe the tears away, she took many steps back in fear. Fuck!My jaws clenched, and my hands formed a fist beside me. I looked from her to Adriana who was standing close by, begging for help with my eyes. I didn't know what else to do, I was helpless for the first time since I met her. I don't want to lose her, I can't afford to lose her. “Can you let him explain, Grace?” Adriana asked, and I was grateful that she was trying to help me out because I swear, I was fucking lost for words.“What is there to explain?” Grace asked with a choked voice, causing my heart to break.“There is always something to explain. Give him a chance to explain” she pleaded. I stood there staring at them both as I didn't know what to do anymore. Even if Gra

Davis's POV A fucking swimming competition, I wonder how good my baby girl is in the pool that she wanted a swimming competitionIt's been two days since the deal. According to Grace, she wants me to heal first before we go swimming. I had intentionally gone to say a big thank you to Vincent and Adrianna that day for helping me out that day. I would have truly lost Grace. I wasn't fucking good at expressing myself, talking and trying to persuade her to stay, wasn't really my thing. After that day, we had been cool. She didn't speak about what happened down in the torture room again, and neither did I ask why she had come there in the first place. I had given up torturing and killing. Not after killing Bruce first, though. I wanted to please her, I was doing every fucking thing to please my babies. “I hope you're ready?” She asked me as she walked towards me. I was already standing at the back of the mansion waiting for her.“I've been ready since the day you challenged me to a sw

Davis's POVI sat down at the back of the SUV as I made my way to DDS company. With my eyes closed, I rested my bed backward against the chair rest. My thoughts were clouded with Grace and what happened last night. I knew she must be wondering why I didn't push further after she had given me the go-ahead, but I just couldn't. Not when I know what her desire was. I didn't want her regretting any fucking thing.She is my girl and I know what she wants. I won't let her be uncomfortable. The look on her face when she finally saw the video that I had indeed won was enough to know that she didn't want sex before marriage.I raked my hand through my hair before pulling out a box of cigarettes. Taking out one stick from it, I lit it while it was between my teeth. My mind wasn't even on the meeting I was going to but instead the lady back at home. I had gone to Grace's room to speak to her about it, but I was shocked to see her sleeping in the bathtub. If I had not seen her go upstairs, I wo

Grace's POVI don't know how long I sat there staring at the paper Davis gave to me, but he wanted me to sign it. He wants me to sign the paper in front of him.It was when we had walked him to the car, he kissed Helen on the cheek before asking Vincent to take care of us both. When Vincent left, he turned to me and smiled. I wasn't smiling. I was angry, I didn't want him to leave. But I knew I couldn't stop him.“How long will you be gone?” I asked him.He breathed in and out first before pulling me by the waist to himself, his intense gaze on mine“Just a week” My heart squeezed in my chest, a week, that's seven days, I don't want him going for so long, but I didn't say so. I bobbed my head slowly,“Okay” His beautiful blue eyes still continued to stare at me, making me swallow as I stared at him. Then I licked my lips and noticed how he switched from gentle just by his hold on my waist. “Fuck!” I heard him cuss before his lips moved to my nape, and I sighed in response with my e

Grace's POVI had slept off in my room while staring at the paper on the bedside stool. I just couldn't understand why Davis would want me to marry him so suddenly. Yes, I was happy about it, but it was still suspicious. Davis, I know, doesn't plan to get married, ever. Why then was he bringing marriage so early?I had slept off with those thoughts in my head till I was woken up by a knock on the door.The knock was gentle at first but then, it suddenly became so loud that I snapped my eyes open to see who was there. I didn't need to do much, as I heard the voice of Helen,“Mommy!” She yelled as she kept knocking. I had locked the door from inside as I didn't want someone bumping into me staring at a paper for hours like someone who had nothing else to do in life. I slowly got up from bed before making my way to the door,“I'm coming baby, hold on” I murmured a little bit louder so that Helen could hear me. When I got to the door, I opened it,“Baby, what is it?” I asked the moment
