A Home For Christmas Chapter Thirty Two
Julia Hearing those words from Riley feels like a balm to my soul. I've never had anyone say anything like that to me before and knowing that he means it just makes this all feel too good to be true. "Julia. Say you're mine. Say you're my girl." Riley is deadly serious and I know that this is the moment that I have to make a decision. I can walk away from here and him right now, take Nina and carry on with our lives or I can bite the bullet and give this a chance. Granted I could end up heartbroken and so could Nina but this could also end up being the best thing to ever happens to us. "Julia?" Riley's voice brings me back to the moment as he gently holds both of my hands. I know he's waiting for me to say those words and I want to... "Talk to me, sweetheart. What's going on in that pretty head of yours?" his words are sweet and make me smile. "Are you really sure you want me to say those words, Riley? I mean I'm a mess, my life is a mess and I come with a child." "I don't want to

Riley As always, Mario was on time and the test was done without any trouble. The moment he left, we did the same. I know my family, Josh included, want to spend some time with Julia and little Nina and to get to know them more, but so do I. They can wait to spend time with them. I can't, I need to spend time with them. I've only just got Julia to agree to give us a chance, and I'm not about to mess that up, which means getting them both home where they belong and showing them how life is going to be from now on. Showing Julia that Nina is just as important to me is also something that I know I need to do, but it won't be hard, that little girl is a doll and granted I know her even less than I know Julia, but I can already tell that loving her will be just as easy as loving Julia will be. Before we step outside of the house, I put my coat on Julia before taking my spare one from the coat rack and hooking it over my arm. Julia gives me a confused look as I hold the door open for the

Julia The traffic picks up as we get further downtown, but it's still not long before Riley announces that we are home. Home, not his home, just home, and I am not sure what to make of it. This is his home, not ours... wait, this is the Royal Towers Hotel. It's one of the biggest buildings downtown and one of the most expensive. Only the richest of the rich stay here because of the stinkingly high price tag. What are we doing here? This can't be where he lives, surely. We turn off into the underground garage that runs underneath the hotel and keep driving until we reach the very back of the garage and the signs state private parking. We slowly creep along when I notice that the private parking spaces all have plaques on the walls with names on them and the first five that we pass all say Riley Carter... What the fuck? I turn to face him as we pull into parking space number six. Six spaces... six cars... fuck my life! "Six cars?" I turn to face Riley and he honestly looks confused.

Riley My stomach twists as I watch my best friend hit the floor and the prick that hit him standing over him. "Oh my god, it's him!" I turn to my side to face Julia to find her shaking. I pull her in close to me as my eyes once again find the security screen. "Who baby?" I want to stay here and comfort her but I also need to get to Josh before anything else happens. "Mario's man. The one that killed Nina!" "Fuck!" I quickly fish my cell out of my pocket and dial Sa,m the head of my security and as always, he answers almost immediately. "Boss." "Sam, I need you and whoever is with you down in the garage straight away. Josh is in trouble. Theres a male there but I do not know if she is armed or if there any one else there. "On it" I walk a shaking Julia to the couch and then sit her down as she continues to shake. "I need to go downstairs and make sure that Josh is ok. I want you to stay here and I'll lock the elevator so no one can get up here ok?" She looks up at me, the look in

Riley What the fuck are you talking about? I’m either hearing things wrong, or I was right when I said that this man is crazy "Say that again?" He looks directly at me and all I want to do is to end him right here, right now. "You heard what I said. She’s my daughter and I want her now!" "What did you just say?" We all spin around when we hear a female voice to find a gun-wielding Julia standing outside of the elevator and directing the gun straight at Caesar's head. What the hell is she doing? "Finally joined the party." Ceasre says to Julia, but I don’t look his way as I keep my eyes on her. "What are you doing sweetheart? She doesn’t even look at me when I talk to her, she just keeps her eyes on Caesar as she continues to point the gun his way. "I said what did you just say?" She’s still not paying me any attention so I turn my attention to Caesar and I instantly wanted to hit the Smirk off his face. He is enjoying this and it’s sickening. "It’s none of your business, you stup

JuliaThe moment it hits me, it feels like a ton of bricks are sitting on my chest. It was him. He was the one who raped Nina. He was the one that started her demise. What he did that night destroyed her, it turned her into someone else, she was never the same person again.I always wanted to know who had done it to her because I wanted them to be punished, but she swore to me that she knew nothing about him, that he was covered in black clothing and his face with covered too, and she didn’t know any details about him. But I don’t think that was true. I think she knew who it was. I think she knew that he was Caesar, but I’m not sure why she wouldn’t tell me.I can imagine that she was scared that Mario would find out, scared that Mario would blame her and punish her for it or maybe she didn’t want him to find out that it was Caesar because Caesar was very close to him either way, I’m not sure why she didn’t tell anyone, but I wish she had. And if there is a chance that he really is Ni

Riley I stretch out my aching limbs and slowly open my eyes, looking around my still pitch-black room, which means once again I’m awake early. It’s been two days since Julie and Nina came to stay with me, and I’ve hardly slept. I can’t stop thinking about everything that happened over the last few days and I can’t stop thinking about the fact that Julia came downstairs with a gun, that girl is fucking crazy, and she’s going to be the death of me. I swear. I don’t regret a second of them being here. If I’m being honest with myself, I love it, and despite the situation we find ourselves in, I know that I’ve never ever been this happy. I drag my ass out of bed and catch a glimpse of the clock 6:05 am. I've barely had three hours of sleep again, but it’s okay because I get to see my girls and that always makes it better. I quickly head into the bathroom, do my business and get the shower running. Before Nina was here, I would spend a long time in the shower every morning getting ready

JuliaIt’s been four days since Nina and I arrived at Riley's, and it has been both the best and worst four days of my life. The worst is because I’ve struggled with being inside a lot. I’m just not used to it, I'm used to being outside, and I never thought I’d struggle to adjust to being inside so much, but I am. I didn’t even struggle this hard when we were at the cottage, but maybe that’s because I knew deep down that it wasn't a permanent thing, whereas here with Riley, this could be a permanent place for us and that scares me.Another thing that scares me is just letting go. It’s putting my trust in Riley. He asked me to do it, and I am trying. He also asked me to let him take care of me and Nina, and I’m trying with that too, but it’s hard. I’m used to being independent, I’m used to being the one that Nina has to rely on.I’m used to being the one to constantly worry about where her next set of clothes will come from or her next meal, and now here we are in the penthouse of an ex

A Home For Christmas Epilogue Part Two
Julia It's almost fifteen minutes later when we pull into Mandy's driveway and my curiosity is piqued even more when I see Riley's mom, Grandad, Josh and none other than little Miss Nina standing on the front steps. "What's going on?" I'm less worried now and more excited as I see the people that I love on the steps as Jenny steps out from behind them with the twins in her arms right before Josh leans down and takes Jacob from her. I would question the fact that Nina is here even though I know that she left the house for the school bus this morning but it just so happens that Josh was the one to take her for the bus today and then he drove separately from us... It doesn't take a genius to work out what happened there. "Let's go and find out shall we?" He gets out of the car and quickly makes his way around to my side and opens my door before holding out his hand for me to take and we head towards the others as they all continue to look at us with cheesy smiles on their faces. As so
A Home For Christmas Epilogue Part One
Julia 5 years later I slowly open my eyes feeling groggy and insanely tired, inwardly groaning when I check the alarm clock beside me and realize that it's going to start blaring in exactly four minutes. Fuck my life! I shouldn't complain about getting up, not after I've had a solid 9 hours of sleep but still, between a bed that feels like I'm sleeping on fluffy clouds and an incredibly handsome husband wrapped around me how can I not? But with kids to get ready for the day and a job to get to I dont have much choice! Of course, Riley has always made it clear that I dont have to work and I did try it for a while but the truth is, the moment that I first walked into my office, I knew that it was the right thing for me. Of course, I love my children more than anything in this world but I can't be a stay-at-home mom. I need to be out working, helping to earn money and know that I'm contributing to their financial support. And honestly, being stuck inside the house for too long drives
A Home For Christmas Chapter Fifty Eight
Julia"When will Daddy be home from work?" I can't help but smile as my little girl asks me that one simple question. It's only been a day since she 'asked' Riley to be her Dad and yet, I swear that she has said the word 'Dad' a thousand times and I'm not even sure who loves it more... her or Riley.When Riley had the conversation with her I didn't fully understand what he was doing, can't say I fully agreed with him, that was until he told me his reasons and I got it, I did, and I still do, and I think he did the right thing. Of course, being honest is the right thing to do but in this case, a little white lie seems the best way to go. She's never going to remember the conversation but she'll always remember Riley as being her Dad. besides, when we had a chat we agreed that when she is old enough we will tell her the story so it won't always be a secret."He won't be long, baby. How about you make him a picture while you wait with your new colors and coloring book?" She nods excitedl
A Home For Christmas Chapter Fifty Seven
Riley "Why don't I haves a Daddy?" I'm sitting at the breakfast bar doing some work on my laptop while Julia takes a bath when Nina walks over to me and asks me that. She's been in the lounge playing with Josh so I don't know where that's come from. I look down at her and see sadness all over her cute little face and it breaks my heart. It's been almost two weeks since we found out that I am her Dad, but we decided to wait until after Christmas and New Year to tell her in case she got upset by the news. Of course, I'm praying that she doesn't but it is a possibility and none of us want to ruin her first Christmas and birthday with a roof over her head. I get off the stool and duck down so that I'm face-to-face with her. "What did you say, sweetheart?" I'm pretty sure that I know what I heard but I want to double-check just in case I'm somehow wrong. "Why don't I haves a Daddy?" Fuck, I was hoping that I was wrong. A million thoughts swarm my head while the words I want to say lay o

Riley Julia hands both Josh and me some beers before saying goodnight to us and heading for the bedroom but there are two problems with that one, I didn't get a kiss goodnight and that's not how our relationship is going to go. There will be a kiss shared last thing at night and first thing in the morning at the very least. The second problem is that she's heading towards Nina's room. She had better just be checking on her before she goes to our room, even though I only left Nina's room around 30 minutes ago so I can't imagine she checking on her already but she's used to being with her all the time so I could be wrong so decide to check. I creep up behind her and whisper in her ear "And where do you think you're going?" It's really hard not to laugh when she jumps but it's the cutest sight, and then she laughs her beautiful laugh as she turns around to face me. "I'm going to bed. I just said goodnight."She has such an innocent confused look on her face that it's hard not to just sc

Riley Nina's yawning brings my mind back to the room. "Are you tired, sweet girl?" My mom asks her. Her little head bops up and down as she goes to speak, but she just ends up yawning again. It's only 6.30, but it's been a long day for her and after an early start, I imagine she's more than ready for bed. After a few minutes of chatting, I start to gather our stuff while Julia gets Nina all wrapped up warm before we head out into the cold. "I'd best make a move too," Josh says as he removes the tiara from his head. His words give me a strange feeling, and I'm not sure what to do with it. We've spent every Christmas day together since we left school and his parents left to go travelling. Him saying he's heading off seems wrong even if I do appreciate him thinking about my family... my family. "Where are you going?" Julia asks him. He looks at me and then her before smiling, but I know full well that he's forcing that smile. "I'm going to head to the club." She tilts her head a littl

Riley “You know, son. There was a time when I started to believe that I wouldn't see this moment.” My Mom says as she comes to stand next to me. “What do you mean?” She gives me a warm smile before nodding her head towards the piano where Julia is standing with her arms around my little girl as they watch my Grandfather play the piano. "You with a family. I'd always hoped that I'd get to be a grandma one day but after what happened with... Well, I didn't get the impression that you wanted to have that anymore, but I'm so glad that you did. I'm so glad that you went with your gut when you met Julia." One thing I've always been able to rely on my mum for is her honesty, and right now hearing her say all those things makes me insanely grateful for that trade in her. "I didn't think I would either. If truth be told Mom, I knew that there was something special about her the first time I saw her, but I fought it and yet, suddenly, I was seeing her all the time without trying and then...
A Home For Christmas Chapter Fifty Three
Julia "Mommy, mommy, wake up!" My mind feels groggy as I'm pulled from my sleep by noise and when I go to move my whole body feels like I've just done the work out of a lifetime but as memories of last night with Riley resurface, I don't care about any discomfort I feel right now because it was worth every single second of it. "Mommy!" My eyes snap open when I realise that it's Nina calling me and I swiftly sit up to see her, grateful when I take the blanket with me, I'm naked underneath and that is the last thing my little girl needs to see. I don't even remember falling asleep last night, never mind falling asleep in Riley's bed. Jesus, I'm an arse, I hope he didn't mind. "Good morning, baby." She looks to a still sleeping Riley whos laying beside me then a massive smile plasters across her face. Suddenly she climbs up onto the bed and dives straight for Riley landing on top of him and scaring the shit out of him. A laugh burst out of me while Nina laughed hysterically. "Well, go
A Home For Christmas Chapter Fifty Two
Riley How I manage to control myself when she gasps at the sight of my cock I have no idea but somehow, I manage it. I can see that she's nervous and I get it but I'm going to be as gentle as I can be which is going to be hard. My dick is so hard that I want to nail her to the bed and have her screaming my name. But this is her first time and I'm going to make it as special as I can. Besides, there will be more than enough time for harder sex in the future and going by how Julia has responded to my small bits of roughness with her breasts I think she's going to like the harder sex and I can't wait to find out for myself. I climb back onto the bed and place myself between her legs, she's still coming down from her orgasm, her pussy still soaking wet and so so inviting. I cover her body with mine and kiss her like my life depends on it as I line myself up. "Are you still sure, baby? Remember you can always change your mind." She shakes her head no while smiling. "I'm ready. I'm ready
