HAVE YOU TOLD HER YET David had put Lulu to sleep. He went into his study, now that he had her back, he could come to his senses and take action. Steven walked behind him. "Contact Rose," David ordered, anger laced in his voice. Steven returned minutes later with the phone. "I didn't know you'd call me so soon after kicking me out so shamelessly the other day." "So you know who it is," David frowned. "Of course, how could I not be prepared for you of all people?" "Let's meet, and this time, I choose the location." "I'm in, when and where?" "Right now, at my old cabin." "Alright." "Rose, we're going to talk like civil people, let's do just that." "You have nothing to worry about." * "I see you were here recently and seeing that you didn't bother to take care of the messy sheets I'm assuming it's with that woman?" "What do you want exactly?" "I have your child," she snapped at him. "Until I can prove it I'm calling bullshit." "Call bullshit all you want, it's your bab
I THINK I HAVE A CONFESSION TO MAKE David headed back home "Sir, I'm waiting for your orders." Steven commented. "I could easily get rid of her... But then, the possibility that she might not be lying, that 1 percent chance she might actually be pregnant, Lulu's words keep seeping through my head, that the child is not at fault." "So what do we do sir?" Steven asked him. "I know that image isn't just one copy she must have pasted it onto multiple sources." "Yes sir," Steven agreed. "So do well to get access to each and every one in every way that you can." "Yes boss." "And restore her works." "Sir are you sure? Won't she have nothing to lose then?" "She might try to blackmail me with this, it's her only saving grace from her husband cutting her off, so she won't share it to the media without milking me first." "You're right sir, if she does post it, she would only be affecting her own works." Steven disappeared to do just as he had been told. David looked around, "where's
LUCIANA BRIDGE Lulu smiled from ear to ear, "I love you David Carlson." "No you don't understand," he shook his head, "I've loved you since I first set my eyes on you at the doctor's office, I was left speechless by how beautiful you were, the way you pick on your fingernails when you're nervous, the way you articulate your words when you want to say the right things, I can't explain how you make me feel, I see you and I forget all about my worries, nothing has ever made me want to live more, to love more, I love you so much Lulu." Lulu had no idea she was crying until he caught her tears with the pad of his thumb. She buried her face in his neck and wrapped him in a tight embrace, "thank you so much, I love you so much..." It felt so good to hear the words roll out of her lips. He lifted her in his arms and led her into his bedroom. He set on the bed and she wouldn't take her eyes off of him. "Just because I don't express it doesn't mean I can't get shy," he teased her. "I'm s
KEEP MY FAMILY'S NAME OUT YOUR FUCKING MOUTH There was a flock of reporters taking their pictures. They had become the couple of the town by now, everyone looked forward to seeing them at all the events, ignoring all the other celebrities. "Mrs Carlson tell us why you always reject working with all the brands who want to work with you even the highly sophisticated ones?" One reporter asked. She turned to David with wide eyes, "I have been getting requests from brands?" "I turned them all away, I didn't want anyone stressing you." She chuckled, as they made their way in. There were multiple tables arranged with assigned seats for every attendee. "Wow, this looks fancy," she commented, "what's wrong?" She furrowed her brows, noticing the sudden change in his expressions, "is everything okay?" "It's nothing," he dismissed. "Okay I'll be right back, I need to go to the bathroom, it seems the baby is starting to press on my bladder a lot more these days since I always feel the n
ALEX THE SAVIOR She knew David was yelling for her but she couldn't see him or hear him at this point. She also knew she must be drawing murmurs but she didn't care All she needed at this point was a place to hide, to be away from him. She gasped as one hand yanked her, pulling her away from view and behind a wall. She gasped, feeling trapped between the wall and the body that had a familiar scent. "Alex?" She finally met his eyes. He pressed his index finger against his lips, "I can help you get away from him." The last person she wanted to save her was Alex but she knew David wouldn't give up on looking for her. Taking her silence as a yes, he guided her to his parked car and helped her in. Not long after, David showed up in that corner, gasping for breath from running so much. He saw Alex standing there and shook his head, gripping his clothes aggressively, "where on earth is she?" "What are you talking about?" Even though the glasses were tinted, she worried that he w
David had multiple flashes capturing him the entire time He had his eyes on the look out for Lulu through the crowd. Reporters filled him with questions. "Nobody really saw this coming." "Why did you randomly drop out of the board earlier?" "Why are you rejoining now that the elections are closer?" He continued to scan the crowd to see if he would find her but instead he found Rose standing close to the podium with a devious smile on her face. He closed his eyes, she was responsible for this. Shouldn't I have gotten rid of her when I had the chance. Steven was beside him, he leaned into his ear, "check all the security cameras and make you find her." "Yes boss." David climbed onto the stage. "Mr Carlson?" The presenter drew his thoughts away from Lulu. "We are waiting on your speech." "Right." He never showed nervousness but for the first he was afraid he looked nervous. "I thought it was better to let my competitor have the post which was why I stepped down but my yea

DESPISED THAN THE DEVIL"What?" David thought he didn't hear her clearly."Since we're on the topic of lies, I'll just come clean, because I know Alex or Rose will attempt to blackmail me with this sooner or later.""What the fuck are you talking about?""I was never your surrogate David, I always w
Lulu smiled at the sight of her two favorite people playing together. She joined them, helping Sage grab small handfuls of sand. “Look, Sage! We’re building a castle for you.” As they worked together, their laughter filled the air. It was a beautiful moment, one Lulu would always cherish. “Okay, S
After Tina and Steven left, David and Lulu lay on the couch, wrapped in each other’s arms. The afternoon sun streamed through the windows, casting a warm glow in the living room. Lulu sighed contentedly, resting her head on David’s chest. “I love days like this. Just you, me, and Sage.” “Me too,”
Lulu and David were still basking in the warmth of their reunion when there was a knock at the door. Lulu looked at David, her eyes bright with curiosity. “Who could that be?” she asked, glancing at the clock. It was still early in the afternoon. “I don’t know. Want me to check?” David replied, ge
Mirabel wiped at her eyes, her tears falling freely now. “I’m so sorry, David. I didn’t mean for it to go this far.” David shook his head, disgusted by her words. “Sorry isn’t enough, Mirabel. Not for what you did.” Mirabel looked up at him, desperation in her eyes. “Please, David. Don’t fire me.
David slowly opened his eyes, feeling the warmth of Lulu beside him. Her arm was draped over his chest, and he could hear her soft breathing. They hadn’t slept like this in a long time, wrapped up in each other, the way they used to when everything felt right. For a moment, it felt like everything h
They sat there in silence for a while before David leaned in to plant a kiss on her lips, they stayed that way for a moment before he laid her on her back, slightly hovering above her. it was only a moment before they were both completely naked, panting hard as they both moaned desperately, wanting
Lulu stood there, her arms crossed, staring at David. The silence in the room was thick, and David could feel the tension radiating from her. Her lips quivered, her eyes sharp and filled with suspicion. “You could be lying to me,” she said suddenly, her voice low but filled with hurt. David’s hear
David parked the car in the driveway, stepping out quickly. He waited as Lulu pulled up behind him. She got out slowly, holding Sage close to her chest. Her face was pale, and she looked drained. David walked toward her, his eyes full of worry. “Lulu…” he began softly. Lulu looked at him, exhaus
Lulu stood frozen, staring at James. Her heart pounded in her chest as the shock of seeing him still lingered. “How did you…?” Lulu started, her voice shaky. “How did you get out of jail? You were in England. What are you doing here?” James glanced around nervously. “I can’t say too much,” he re
