LYNN'S POV Entering the familiar family kitchen, I slid out the wooden farm table chair and sat down in front of my parents. Drake took the seat next to me as I stole a nervous glance at him and then focused on my parents. They looked stressed and tired and I knew they were going to give me an ear full about ruining their BBQ. I honestly didn't mean to, but I wasn't going to let Melissa and Jason stay here. They didn't belong here."How is your hand?" Mom asked Drake.He looked at it and then just shrugged before he hid it beneath the table. It was as if he was ashamed of what he had done. I wasn't ashamed. I was proud. Seeing Jason get pummeled like that was the greatest thing I've ever seen. There were times during our marriage that I wished someone would punch him out for me, but nobody came to my rescue. Until now."What is it that you want to discuss?" I asked. They called us down here for a reason and I wasn't leaving until I knew.The scowl on Dad's face made me a bit nervous
Dad scoffed and shook his head. "You know that Melissa will never go for that. She's too independent and thinks nothing is wrong with her."I shook my own head and sat back. They were defending her again. There was probably nothing I could say to change their minds. Then I looked at my mom."Who is Melissa's father?"She looked down at her hands and replied, "His name was Mack and he was very abusive. I ended up in the hospital right before I gave birth to Melissa... that's when I left him for good.""What?!" Deja vu punched me in the gut! How do I seem to know nothing about my family?! Then a realization slapped me in the face. "Is that why you freaked out when I told you what Jason was doing to me?" This question was directed at my mom. "I cried to you on several occasions and you always told me to just stop making him angry and he wouldn't hurt me anymore. You knew about the bad stuff and still let me suffer."It wasn't until he almost killed me that you offered me a way out." My h
DRAKE'S POV "Something doesn't feel right," I mentioned to Lynn as we stepped into our private elevator to head back up to our suite. There was a tightness in my chest and my instincts were usually spot on."What do you mean?", She askedI shrugged as I stared straight ahead. I didn't know what to say as I couldn't pinpoint the problem. There was something much deeper going on. I could feel it."Half a million just seems like so much money for the debts they mentioned. How much money did your lawyer cost? It just doesn't seem to be adding up." I ran a hand over my face as I blew out a breath.My head was pounding and I had long ago lost my buzz. A hangover took its place and all I wanted to do was crawl into bed and sleep, but there was no way I could fall asleep with my mind going as fast as it was."I didn't think he cost that much and when the divorce was finalized, Jason was supposed to cover his costs. I wanted nothing to do with him once it was finalized and I was so lost that
DRAKE'S POV After I got off the phone with luis, he quickly texted me and said that he got a flight and would be here in six hours. It was perfect timing for me to get as much sleep as I could and be up to meet with him before lynn woke up.I was so afraid to tell her everything because what I was about to tell her would change her whole world. I couldn't help but wonder if she'd stay with me through all of it. That's why I called her best friend. Luis helped her through the divorce and got her away from Jason. I was hoping he could do that again.I slipped into bed next to Lynn and stared at her perfectly sleeping form before I drifted into a deep sleep. My phone was in my pocket, ready to vibrate when my alarm went off.And when it did, the sun was just barely peeking over the horizon. We needed to move fast before lynn woke. I needed to give Luis all the details and go through the emails that buzzed me awake a few times through the night. To say I was nervous was a huge understate
LYNN'S POV Drake's soothing, deep voice woke me out of my slumber as I smiled and stretched. He was clearly in the other room talking to someone on the phone. Who was he talking to? His boss? Dakota? But then I heard another voice; a familiar one.I jumped out of bed and ran into the living room to find Luis standing there with Drake. My heart leaped with excitement as I lunged forward and threw my arms around his neck."Luis!! What are you doing here?!"He hugged me back and grinned when I looked at him. "Oh, ya know, I missed you too much."I giggled. "We were only going to be gone for a few days, but I'm glad you're here. I missed you, too." I winked.Then I looked over at Drake and sauntered up to him next, giving him a good morning kiss. His lips were soft but I noticed how the kiss was different. He kept his mouth closed and simply gave me a small peck before he leaned back and smiled down at me.My eyes moved between them and my heart sank. Something was wrong."Tell me," I de
I ignored Dominick and Luis's stares and continued on with the documents. I needed to read them all. I needed to get the full picture.Clicking on the next one, I saw an old newspaper article about a fatal fire in downtown Seattle. The owners of Tuffin Aerospace were killed in the late-night house fire. Their daughter, lynn Tuffin, age four was staying at their nanny's residence on Birch Street. That's where my parents live!My hands shook so badly that I nearly dropped the phone and Drake was right there to hold me, but I didn't want him to. I wasn't angry with him, but I needed my space. I felt like I couldn't breathe. My entire life had been a lie and I had no control over it.I inhaled a deep breath and kept going. The next document showed the adoption papers for lynn Tuffin and the Martinez. I didn't want to believe it when Luis blurted it out only moments before, but it's obviously true. It's right here on a legal document.I clicked back to the embezzlement documents and looked
Then I thought about those adoption papers and how I wasn't actually their daughter. According to them, Melissa wasn't my dad's either. Was that the truth? Or another fucking lie?!Any happy childhood memory that I had went right out the window after today and I couldn't stop myself from wondering if they ever loved me. Was I always just a paycheck for them? I tried to remember my life as a little girl and realized all the memories were blurry. I've always looked up to my parents as they were always there, but if my mom was actually my nanny, that would make sense. Fuck!Someone knocked on the door as I quickly wiped away my tears and jumped up to grab clothes from my luggage. I didn't want them to see me this."You okay, babe?" Drake's voice filled the room as I gave him a smile over my shoulder."I'm fine. I'll be out in a moment."The look of sadness on his face nearly tore me in two. I knew that he was just trying to help and even though his feelings meant everything to me, I coul
LYNN'S POV "Make sure to speak clearly and face them when they're speaking," Micky instructed as he wired me up.One look over at Drake and I bit back the laugh building in my chest. He was throwing daggers at Micky and if looks could kill, he'd be dead ten times over. It probably didn't help that Micky was wiring my front side up and taping the pieces to fit between my breasts. And even though he was being completely professional about it, I knew that Drake didn't like where he was at the moment."What else should we know?" I asked as my heart started pounding over the thoughts of what wiring up meant. I was terrified to go back to my parents after learning everything. They might have been the parents I knew growing up, but they weren't actually my parents after all. What happens if I slip up?"Just get in and get out. Don't poke the bear and don't let them know that you know everything. We don't know what these two could be capable of if they feel cornered. Just get that journal an
Once we have that information, we'll go after her." His voice was softer now, but I could tell he was still withholding something from me.I was exhausted and just wanted today to be over with. It started out amazing and ended with a nightmare. Slipping out of the Audi, I walked into our house, grabbed a beer and headed for the living room. I plopped down on the couch, not giving a shit where Drake was right now. Nothing could go right in our lives and I was tired. I just wanted one fucking good week with him. Just one! Was that too much to ask for?!The sound of the garage door closing echoed through the kitchen. I held my breath, waiting for Drake to join me. His footsteps became louder the closer he approached me. I kept my eyes forward, staring out at the inground pool lit up like a glowing blue sea and took a deep breath.Drake plopped down next to me without a word. He was inches away from me but we didn't touch. More tears blurred my vision, but I quickly blinked them away. I k
LYNN'S POVIt smelled awful here. Like bleach and stale crackers. Weird concoction. I've never been in jail before. My nerves were shot and nobody was giving me any answers. All I knew was that I had been arrested for aggravated assault and distributing sexual images to a minor. I've done neither of those things, and can't help but wonder who the hell set me up. Two faces come to mind: Brooke and Monique's. I knew in my heart that one or both of them had set me up. There wasn't anyone else, right? Maybe Noah?I hated being a sitting duck. There was nothing I could do behind bars. Drake must have felt this way when he was locked up, too. I felt helpless and I hated it. I've paced through my cell for the last hour, gnawing on my fingernails, but I've been in here for much longer. I had no way of telling time, but I knew it had been several hours. The sun had set through the tiny window across from my cell not long ago.A loud buzzing broke me away from my thoughts as I ran to the bars.
But before she could move away from me, I wrapped my arm around her waist and pulled her up to me. "That's all I get?"Her cheeks turned rosy red. "Oh, you want a better kiss?""Always."She perched on her tiptoes as I framed her face. Our lips connected; mine on her top one and hers on my bottom one. It was a closed-mouth kiss at first, but as soon as I tasted her, I needed more. Our mouths parted as our tongues tasted. I knew she got nervous about public affection, so I broke the kiss and pressed my forehead against hers."Are you ready?" I whispered."Yes." Her head nodded against mine. "Get to work and stop making out with the staff, will ya?"I laughed as she stepped away from me, winking over her shoulder at me. God, I loved that woman. I got into work mode and turned to the camera. The actors came out in their silk robes. It was showtime. Luis and Lane were in their spots, while the other lighting and sound crew milled behind us.As soon as the actors removed their robes and ap
DRAKE'S POV Everything was coming along beautifully in our life, and our first shoot was no different. As I drove along the freeway to head to the studio, lynn sat beside me with a permanent smirk on her lips. I had thoroughly fucked her last night before we spooned into the early morning hours. I could still see her orgasmic face in my head as I made her explode and squirt not once, but twice. She might have been a bit embarrassed by it, but I thought it was the sexiest thing in the world.I brought her hand up to my mouth for a kiss. She turned her gaze on me and giggled. It was awesome seeing lynn so happy and content. This was the exact life I wanted to have with her and we could finally have it. Her family issues were dealt with, and so were mine. There may be a few issues left, but nothing that could tear us apart. Lynn was my everything and I was pretty positive she felt the same about me."So, before we get to the studio, I think we should talk. This is something that's compl
"Drake!" I cried when I felt my orgasm growing again.It was so tight and full, but oh so delicious. The sound of his balls slapping against my ass filled the room, making me clench my walls around him. He threw his head back, revealing the tattoos lining his neck. I wanted to taste him; needed to, actually.I pulled him down flush against my chest, inhaling his flesh into my mouth before I bit him. He let out a guttural moan as his fingers dug into my hips. His thrusts were deeper and then they slowed to a steady, slow pace. He was cumming."Ah, fuck!" He groaned.His body jolted above mine as he lowered and bit the top of my shoulder. I held him tightly to me, still breathing through the tightness between my legs. This one was for him, but I couldn't promise I wouldn't be able to hold off my orgasm again.As he slowly pulled out of me, his entire body quivered and his chest vibrated from his chuckle. It melted my heart to see Drake be so carefree and comfortable around me. We'd come
The excitement was unreal and I was almost shy that I was this intrigued for something I've never done before. This wasn't something most couples did in the bedroom, yet I couldn't wait to be double penetrated by both Drake and his replica. It was going to be like sleeping with two Drake's.Drake leaned back on his knees, smirking down at me as he grabbed his real cock and stroked himself. I watched every second of it and couldn't pull my eyes away from the dildo bobbing from his movements."We'll start off nice and easy, okay?"I vigorously nodded, moving my eyes back down to his cocks as he adjusted his hips. His warm, hard cock tip pressed against my clit as my back arched from the bed and made me moan. He might want to take it nice and easy, but I was ready for him to fuck me already.He lowered his mouth to my breasts, locking and nibbling each nipple as he centered his cock over my entrance. Then he slowly pushed in.The tight pressure only got worse when he sank all the way in,
LYNN'S POV When Drake pulled into the driveway, I hadn't realized we'd gotten home so quickly because I couldn't pull my eyes away from my ring. He had amazing taste and I couldn't wait to see the wedding band next to it, sealing our marriage. Speaking of that, I wondered if he'd be okay with a short engagement. I wanted to be Mrs. Hudson sooner rather than later."Welcome home, baby," Drake said as he got out of the car, rounded it, and helped me out.I hadn't been in the garage since Diego attacked Lane, but I wouldn't think about that right now."You changed the security codes, right?"He laughed. "Yeah, I changed them right away. I'll give you the code when I'm finished with you. Nobody can get in besides us. Not even luis."That made me laugh. I could picture luis getting all kinds of flustered because his code wasn't working, but it will be nice to have some privacy again.Drake pulled me inside just as the garage door closed, and continued to pull me upstairs to our bedroom. I
LYNN'S POV The grin on my face wouldn't go away as I tugged my dress back over my head. Drake had just claimed me twice in his office and I was on cloud nine. The man was everything to me and I never wanted this honeymoon stage to end. I couldn't pull my eyes away from him as he put his white shirt back on and zipped up his jeans.He caught me gawking at him as a smirk lifted his lips. I loved it when he looked at me like this, but when he moved toward me, I held my breath. He grabbed my hips and pulled me tight to his body. My heart beat rapidly in my chest as I flattened my hands on his pecs and stared into his mesmerizing gaze.Drake Hudson was mine. Forever."I'd like to introduce you to someone," he said.I cocked an eyebrow at him. "Who?" I asked, trying to figure out who he might have hired while I was gone.He laughed. "I've hired a new accountant and you won't believe who she knows..." He rolled his eyes. "Lane. Apparently the two met back in Vegas a while back. I'm trying t
"I never said that," she whispered. Her cheeks turned a light pink, and I knew she was getting all hot and bothered by my close proximity. "I missed you more than you'll ever know. Promise me you'll come next time.""Done."I leaned down and captured her lips with mine, open-mouth kissing her until we were both breathless. Her nipples hardened beneath my touch, and I lightly pinched them, groaning into her mouth."Okay, we need to go before I fuck you up against this wall and give everyone a free show.""Don't threaten me with a good time, Mr. Hudson."I let out another groan and squinted my eyes at her. Did she seriously just say that? Fuck, I loved this woman."Are you telling me that you wouldn't mind being caught? Does public sex excite you?" My voice was thick with desire as I continued to fondle her breasts, watching her mouth fall open before she panted.Holy shit, my lynn really was excited about the thoughts of being caught. Fuck the surprise I have waiting for her at home, I
