Dimitri POVMy eyes opened to silence. Looking around to the other side of the bed I saw it was empty. I peeked up and saw the cot which was attached to our bed was also empty. Puzzled, I got up and walked downstairs.“You’re a pretty girl hey?” I heard Harper say as I entered the living room. My heart felt like it was going to burst with happiness as I saw her, sitting on the couch.“Morning,” I said and realised how rough my voice was. Looking up she grinned at me.“Look baby daddy’s up!”“Why did you let me sleep in? it should be you sleeping in.” She shrugged.“You have had no sleep as well, you don’t have to wake up with me every time I feed her you know,” she chuckled, a beautiful sound. I smiled at her and lent around.“Dobroye utro printsessa,” I picked her up to say good morning to my princess. I stared into my baby’s face. She was a perfect mix of me and Harper. Harper’s soft face and beautiful lips but she had my dark eyes and much to my mum’s delight she definitely looked

I looked at myself in the full length mirror and took a deep breath.“You look beautiful Harper.” Latisha was behind me in a stunning burgundy full length dress. I smiled, tears in my eyes. I looked straight ahead again at my fishtail wedding dress, full length lace sleeves because we decided to get married in autumn in Russia and two foot veil. That was my favourite. The door knocked and Maxim came in eyes closed.“We are ready ladies.” He nearly knocked himself out as he exited the room. We both cracked up laughing. I turned to Latisha who handed me my bouquet. Red and white lilies. My mum’s favourite flower.“You got this,” she kissed my cheek and put a stray hair behind my ear. My hair was down slightly curly but nothing major.“Lets go.” We left the room and walked down the stairs and to the left. Latisha opened the door and we were greeted by my wedding planner Anna.“Harper, you look amazing. Dimitri is here ready to go. Are you ready?” My heart quickened at his name.“Yes.” We

“Don’t forget you have a meeting tomorrow at two,” I said to Dimitri, my head in my notes. Looking up from his computer he spoke.“Thanks but did you not want to reschedule it? It clashes with the sentencing.”“No I’m not going to go.” I sat opposite Dimitri, him behind his desk. Looking up at me his eyes burned into my soul.“Are you sure?” He wrote some notes on a pad next to his computer.“Yeah I don’t care.” I crossed my legs and his eyes flicked down.“Okay. Did they say what they’re expecting?”“Four years,” I spoke softly, keeping his eyes on mine. Shutting down his computer he threw his suit jacket on. I stood up with him, notepad still in hand. My desk was stationed outside Dimitri’s office and as we walked out I threw it on my desk. The man who assaulted me pleaded guilty at the first opportunity which was a blessing for me. I didn’t have to give evidence in court which I was dreading. Dimitri grabbed my hand and our fingers entwined.“Okay, they have your victim statement t

I opened my eyes, my headache had completely gone but my chest was still killing me. I sat up and realised Dimitri wasn’t there.“Dimitri!” I called out suddenly panicking he wasn’t there.“I’m downstairs milaya,” his voice was full of reassurance. “How are you feeling?” He asked as he met me at the stairs.“My headache is gone but my chest is still hurting”. Holding my hand he helped me down the rest of the stairs. I went into the living room and sighed in relief. It was spotless. I must have been out cold as he clearly had hovered as well.“Toast for you ” he sang, dropping a plate on the kitchen counter. I looked up at him, already dressed and he looked amazing. Plain t-shirt and grey tracksuit bottoms. I sat at the counter and looked down. I also had a cup of coffee.“Thank you.” He sat next to me with his own food.“The police woman is coming at two. Did you want to do anything this morning?” He took a bite and stared at me. I shrugged.“What’s the time?”“Ten,” he answered.“Wow

“Harper.” Is all he said.“Yes?” I whispered.“I don’t know what to say. I don’t think anything I’m going to say is going to help.”“Try,” I whispered.“I’m proud of you. Beyond proud of you. For everything tonight. You need some rest,” he stood up and kissed my forehead. I swallowed hard, he wasn’t coming to bed with me. Walking out he smiled as he closed the door. My eyes began watering again and I needed him here. But he didn’t want to be here. I was tainted. I stared at the ceiling for which felt like hours, my head moving up as he walked back in.“I’ve spoken to Latisha,” his voice was gentle, something I’ve never heard before.“Did you wake her?”“No. I texted her and she called me, feeding the baby.” I nodded. “She’s coming first thing, I have to go into work but will be home by lunch time. I’ll make sure of it. I won’t leave until she gets here.”“Are you coming to bed?”“Do you want me to?” The question made me sob adding to my already wet face.“Of course I do!” I shouted, m

***This chapter has descriptions of sexual assault. Please skip this chapter if you need to***Dimitri dropped me off at work and I waved at a few of the girls as I got into the changing room. I undressed quickly, I had my work ‘clothes’ on underneath and as we walked out into the night club the music started. It was just another night for me, my show at ten thirty and just after midnight a customer beckoned me towards him. He was young, younger than me. Blonde messy hair and build like a house.“Can I get a dance?”“Of course come,” I purred at him walking towards the private booths. Nothing had changed for me work wise while with Dimitri if anything I found it a little boring. To mix it up I did like to close my eyes as I gave a dance and picture him. Mouth slightly open them eyes staring into my soul. The man sat down as I closed the door. His own eyes were strong and I could tell he was massively turned on. The music cut in and I did my thing. Getting lower and closer to him as I

I giggled as Leon pushed his hard on into my backside, his arms around my waist. "Leon!" I giggled again as he pulled me back into his bedroom, his hand up my top. I had no bra on and his warm hands on my breast made me squeal, taking a breath in as his thumb rubbed my nipple. His hands moved and after a second I felt his warm, bare chest on me. I rubbed myself against him, feeling myself get wet. "You are so fucking sexy," he moaned in my ear, his other hand in my knickers. He stroked my clit gently, my eyes closing. We were at the end of the bed, my hand grabbing his neck behind me. Leon's finger traveled my whole wetness, making me giggle. "I can't get over how wet I make you." He bit into my neck and I heard his trousers drop. I turned around and his hands went to my backside, grabbing it and pushing me closer to him. My arms went around his neck as he kissed me. I took a deep breath in as his tongue explored my mouth, Leon slowly dropped me onto the bed, his tongue never leavin

I was back in the field and I was so fucking happy. My adrenaline was pumping and my hand was tight around my gun. We had been called to an active shooter in an office block, there were shit loads of us, armed police on every floor. We were told to get to the fourth floor and Leon was in front, walking up the stairs, Matt was behind him and me behind Matt. I was doing my usual, walking backwards up the stairs, my gun pointed. We didn't actually know where the shooter was so my eyes were darting up every step. It felt odd to not be directly behind Leon, but I was so fucking proud of him. We got to the fourth floor and Leon and Matt stopped. I stopped walking myself, one foot on a step. I didn't turn my head to them so had no idea what was on the fourth floor. My heart was smashing into my chest, my eyes down the stairs. “Baby," "Yeah," I responded to Leon. "Take the men's toilets, on your right when you're up the stairs.""Received." I walked backwards up the last steps, turning to

The last two weeks had gone by in a spin. Trying to organise nan’s funeral and sort out her house. It allowed me to put my mind to something, none of this really hitting me. I went back to work a couple of days ago, but Leon put me on desk duty. Allowing me to do paperwork and help organise the armoury. I was grateful, my mind wasn’t in the right place to be out in the action but I did start to miss it and Leon. I was in the second row of the church, crying my eyes out. Dad was in front of me, in his police uniform. I thought it was odd and you could see Leon’s face about to explode when he clearly wanted to make a joke out of it. Ryan was on my right, Leon my left. I listened to the pastor talk, talk about my nan like he knew her. He didn’t, not like us. She was the most amazing woman and without her I would have a massive hole in my heart. I just fucking knew it. I let out a sob, my head going down. Leon grabbed my hand, our fingers entwining. I let myself cry, my back shaking as th

It was a Wednesday, me and Leon were about to go on nights and had a day off to prepare. He was sitting, shirtless on his sofa, playing some game. “Did you want me to go home at any point?” I walked into his living room, a bowl of cereal in my hand. I hadn’t really been home in months. Only occasionally to tidy or check my post. “No, this is your home.” He said firmly, grabbing a slice of toast and taking a quick bite. “It’s not.” I tried to giggle. “One sec, this is live. I can’t pause it.” Leon’s face was still on the screen. I continued eating my cereal, watching him. He threw his game controller down, turning to me. “Then make it your home.” He shrugged. Wow, I waited for that.“How are we going to live together and people at work don’t even know we are together? That sounds scary to me”. I watched his face cross, picking up his controller again. “I checked the guidance, the longer we leave it, the worse it will be. You can’t be my sergeant.” “Alright jesus woman!” Leon laugh

I opened the door to nan’s house, shopping bags in both hands.“Nan!” I shouted, going into the kitchen. “I’m coming baby, tell me you brought that wonderful man.” She cackled and I rolled my eyes. “Oh here he is!” She grabbed Leon’s face, kissing his cheeks.“I’m here too nan,” I sighed, putting her shopping away.“You’re not her favourite though Lex, that's me now.” I threw Leon a dirty look as he helped nan sit down. Leon sat opposite her, I’ll sort out the shopping then shall I?“How are you nan?” I asked, turning my head to her. She shrugged, oh I didn’t like that at all. “I saw your father yesterday. He made an appearance.” She scoffed. Leon sat back, his hands behind his head. “No way, police commissioner Duggan realised he has a mother.” “Oi!” I shouted at him, he turned to me with a stupid smirk. “Too far man, that is still my dad.” I laughed, turning the kettle on. “Tea nan?”“Please. Make one for Leon too.” I slapped my arms to my side, really? “Your dad is okay, he wan

It was Leon’s first day back in the office and I couldn’t be more excited. I was really trying to play it down, but I made him a coffee which sat on his desk as I looked at the time. He better hurry up, it was about to get cold. “Morning!” He shouted, making me jump. I turned around to see him strolling into the office. That cheeky look on his face as per usual. Stuart stood up from his desk, grabbing him for a hug. “Welcome back Leon, I’m so fucking happy for you.” Stuart said, the emotion clear in his voice. “Thanks Stu, a lot. I mean it. I don’t know what I would do without you and Lex.” Leon put his hand on my shoulder, making my butterflies appear in my stomach. “Leon, my office please.” Williams said, her smile was huge and Leon threw his bag at his desk, practically skipping into the office. I looked at his coffee, and it was definitely going to get cold. I played about on my computer for a little bit, waiting for the door of Williams’s office to open. I turned around to Le

Olivia I could barely breathe as Sebastian's tongue lapped over my clit. Fuck, he was getting good at this. "Bash" I whispered, my heart smashing against my chest. "I've already cum". I said as quiet as a mouse. "You can't cum again?" He asked me, being much less quiet than me. I grabbed his head, attempting to move it upwards. He got the memo and his face came up to mine, starring down at me. "I can't make my wife cum twice in one evening?" His voice was cheeky, a huge smile over his face. "We can't wait for tonight?" I had to stop myself from laughing. "We have to do it in the fucking toilets of said wedding?" Sebastian grinned, kissing my cheek. My heart was completely full, I had never seen him this happy. Ever. "You're lucky that dress is thick as fuck, because if it wasn't." He blew out a breath and I slapped his arm. "I would bend you over right now". My pussy throbbed at the thought. "Can we go and talk to our guests?" I giggled. "If he have to." Sebastian rolled his e

Me and Sebastian sat opposite Blake and Stacey in the small Italian restaurant. They looked great, Thailand clearly did them well. Stacey's skin was darker and it suited her perfectly, Blake even had a tan. "Enough about us, what about you two?" Stacey asked, giggling. Blake grinned at me and my heart was full that he was happy. Finally we were all happy. "We're good," Sebastian turned to me, smiling. I grinned back at him, feeling his hand on my thigh. "I'm moving my stuff into Olivia’s on Saturday". Sebastian spoke before taking a sip of his drink."Stop it!" Stacey giggled. "I'm so happy for you both. How are the kids Sebastian?" I smiled like a mad woman at the mention of them. Jayden and Izzie were a credit to Sebastian and I loved watching him be a dad. "They're good. They love Ollie. I get to see them more now Ava has the new baby". He shrugged but I could tell he was trying to push down a stupid smile too. "I'm glad it worked out for you Bash. You deserve it". Blake spok

Watching Olivia with Jayden and Izzie made my heart nearly burst. Even on her day off she helped me a hundred percent. Settling Izzie in bed, making them dinner, all of it. I was sitting in bed, watching her change into her pajamas. "Not sure why you are bothering putting them on". I chuckled as she rolled her eyes at me. "Funny". She laughed as she got into bed next to me. "Is sex like always on your mind?" "With you. Yes". I answered, pulling her closer to me. Olivia’s head hit my chest and I rubbed my hand up and down her side. "Let's talk then" she whispered, her hand on my chest. "I don't think I've spoken to a woman as much as you". I chuckled, it was true, me and Ava never spoke like this. Olivia sat up and I saw in her eyes she was upset. "I'm joking baby, come". I dragged her back, her sighing into my chest. "I would move into your place tomorrow but only if you're okay with the kids being there." I shrugged. My heart was in my throat. Ever since I had known Olivia I wan

My body naturally woke way too early as I moved my head over to Sebastian’s sleeping face. I took a deep breath in, fuck he was gorgeous and I felt giddy that he was sharing my bed. He was mine, all mine. He had taken his plaster off now and the cut wasn't as bad as I once assumed. My nursing training told me it wouldn't scar. I ran my hand ever so gently down the other side of his face, stopping at his soft lips. I ran my finger across his bottom lip and jumped slightly when it moved into a smile. "Ollie" he moaned, still half asleep. I giggled like a child as Sebastian’s arm went around my waist and pulled me closer to him. "What's the time? Go back to sleep" Sebastian said, his eyes still closed. "I can't sleep. Let me just stare at you" I whispered, snuggling in closer to him. His body was warm and soft, his arm strong around my waist. "You are crazy, stop being a perv and let me sleep”. I burst out laughing at his words, kissing his cheek. I went to pull away but his hand came

I watched Olivia come back into her bedroom, she looked amazing and I still couldn’t believe she cared about me one and then loved me? I had put her through so much already, my heart felt heavy that she was still here with me. “Are you sure you love me?” I couldn’t help myself. Olivia scoffed, sitting on the bed next to me, she had just got out of the shower, her blonde hair darker from the wetness, wearing just a t-shirt and knickers. “I'm a hundred percent sure. Stop being silly”. Her voice had humor to it and it made me smile. This fucking woman, other than my kids she was the only good thing in my whole life. “Come here, I need to touch you”. I whispered, grabbing round her waist and pulling her closer to me, I heard her giggle, my dick flinching. We laid down on the bed, our faces centimeters away from each other, our legs entwined. “I love you” I whispered.“I love you too Bash, you’re safe with me I promise”. My heart nearly smashed out my chest, she really could read my mi

I walked into the breakroom at work, I desperately needed a can of coke before my legs completely dropped off. I was barely half way through my shift but I was absolutely shattered. I grabbed my phone from my locker and my stomach dropped when I saw I had ten missed calls from Blake. I immediately rang him back, he answered on the third ring. “Blake, what's wrong? What happened?” I asked, my heart beating a mile a minute,“Nothing, we are okay, you're going to have a massive bill for calling me back, sorry I will pay for it.”“What is it?” I asked, freaking out even more.“Bash has been arrested.” He dropped. My hands started shaking as I walked deeper into the slim hallway of lockers.“What?” I whispered.“Yeah, he called me this morning, knew you would be working but wanted me to keep trying you. I’m sorry Ollie. He's okay”“Wait, why is he arrested?” I spat out, my mind completely frazzled. I could feel my heart smashing against my chest and I now had a headache. “Ava said he pun
