2021-05-30 19:35:56Leaving? Fear and disappointment washed over her. Had she overdone it? Was he tired of chasing her already? "You're leaving?" he must have heard her panicked expression because he sat down and pulled her onto his lap.
"For business. I'll be back after a week or so"
"Oh," she sighed. That one word holding so much relief.
"You didn't think I was giving up. Did you?"
"No, not really"
"Have a little faith in me, Princess. I don't like that I said it out loud because you could use it against me whenever you want to but I won't ever give up on you. I will chase after you every time you run and be sure that I will catch you. However long it takes. Okay?"

Ray bounced his knee up and down in pent-up frustration. His flight was delayed for two hours. That was two more hours he should have been with Alexis. Two more hours he should have spent kissing her but he was stuck in an airport lounge. There was a lady working there who'd made passes at him several times and he'd had it. One more pass was all it would take to make him do something he'd never done before. Tell her to go screw herself.He was anxious to get back but what worried him was how Alexis would react. He'd picked up his phone a million times to call her but stopped himself last minute. He thought giving her time to miss him was the right thing to do. He was wrong. Henry had called him and according to Marjorie, her friend had been sad but after a few days, she'd started being mad at him. He had been instructed to go back home bearing gifts, expensive ones at that if he wanted he

Alexis caught a glimpse of someone stomping off angrily and pushed Copeland away before their lips touched. Was that Ray she saw? Impossible. He hadn't called her to say he was coming and even if it was a surprise he would have made an appearance. She'd spent last night tossing and turning, wondering why he hadn't contacted her. She imagined how different this weekend would have been had he been there with there. She had planned to spend the whole day in bed shutting out the rest of the world but Copeland had shown up and convinced her to spend the day with him.They were friends. In the last two weeks, they'd spent a lot of time together since the other employees were wary of her. And while he was fun to be around, she really missed Ray. Copeland could make her laugh all he wanted but Ray made her happy. She hadn't realized until then how different those two things were. Whenever she was

Ray fastened his lips on hers, battling with his control. He wanted to take this slow, really really slow. She deserved to be loved and cherished and God knew he wanted to be that man, but with the way he felt, slow was out of the equation. Hard and fast. That was all he could think about. He had to have her, possess her completely, to get rid of the anger he still he felt. It was either this or go in search of Copeland. The latter wouldn't end well. So Alexis would have to do. He only hoped that by the end of this, she would still want him.Grabbing a handful of her hair, he pulled her head back none too gently, exposing her long neck to him. He kissed, licked, nipped and nibbled on it and when she sagged against him moaning, he wound a hand around her waist to keep her up. He could feel her nipples digging in her chest through the bikini. He remem

Alexis came to realizing she was on top of someone. Quickly before she had a mini heart attack, she searched through her brain for yesterday or was it today's events. She'd woken up, had breakfast, then Copeland showed up at her doorstep, Ray.... As she remembered Ray, her body did too and she felt how sore she was. Deliciously sore. Just the thought of him bending her over the couch had her squirming, trying to ease the throb that was starting up between her legs. Now, this was...."Quit it Alexis" Ray's voice rumbled through the chest her head was on and she lifted her face up to look at him."Still grumpy?""No. But I've been lying here for the last hour convincing myself that it would be creepy to touch you when you're asleep. Rubbing your breasts against me isn't helping"

"You passed out""No, I didn't""Yes, you did baby.""Oh my God, shut up before I knock off all your teeth" Ray hadn't stopped teasing her since yesterday. So she'd passed out after having a, well, phenomenal, fantastic, out of this world orgasm. It was his fault that she'd zonked out in the first place. He had no right to tease her about it. All morning he wouldn't stop going on and on and she was seriously seconds away from punching him."C'mon sweetheart. Just admit that I'm the best.""Jesus Ray will you shut up about it. You're starting to make me angry""I can work with anger.

That first day, they'd walked into the dining room and the second he'd seen Copeland he'd kissed Alexis. Claiming her in front of his partner and employees. The man had narrowed his eyes but did nothing mainly because Alexis kissed him back with the same intensity he did her. It was truly one of those moments Ray felt like he was on top of the world. He got the girl in the end. And boy did the girl tease him but he loved every second of it until she whispered 'two days' in his ears. When they sat down to eat, other employees flocked to their table, thanking him for his generosity. He was so busy talking with them that when he felt Alexis' hand on his thigh he jumped. Ray excused himself, saying his ringing phone had startled him. Which was a lie. He needed a chance to brace himself. By the time he got back to the table from answering the fake phone call, the whole office was at their table chatting excitedly. He had a mind to sit far away

"Hi beautiful""Hey, you. Have you arrived at the office?""Yes. And I miss you already""I miss you too babe""Say the word and I'll come back. Let's spend the day together""We did that yesterday and the day before that. You have responsibilities Ray""You're my number one priority sweetheart.""And I can't tell you how happy that makes me. But you have to work too""Don't you want me anymore? 😔"

Not that he'd had the fun alone. Alexis had flipped him over then sprayed a single line of whipping cream down his chest, stomach and his erection. Suffice to say she'd done her own licking and sucking. By the end of the night, she'd come to the conclusion that sex with Ray was never going to be boring. He was always coming up with ways to spice it up and she couldn't wait to see what he had in mind next. Or maybe she should be the one to make an effort next time. An idea struck her making her smile. Ray was going to love it for sure. Opening her eyes, she looked up at him expecting to see him smirking down at her. The frown she was met with was unexpected."Morning. What's with the frown?" she asked attempting to sit up but he tightened his hand just as she heard someone say "Good, she's awake" Alexis whipped her head towards the voice. "Dad?"

Five years later "Natalia Catherine Lachlan, what are you doing?"Startled, she gasped and dropped the bowl full of flour, on the floor. "Nothing. I promise I didn't do anything""Then why is your face covered in flour? And what is that in your hair?""It wasn't my fault mommy. Jamie told me to do it"Alexis would have laughed but Talia needed to be taught a lesson. She was always blaming her little brother for everything she did even when it was clear she was the one who'd committed the crime. Ray and her grandfathers had spoiled her rotten. She had been folding the laundry when she

"That doesn't make sense""It is clear how much your boyfriend loves you and no matter how many times I've tried to scare him away, he wouldn't budge. He is so much like his father that I want to punch him every time I see him""You're such a bully. Why do you have to take your anger out on Ray? Your problem is with Vince. Not his son""But I don't want him to marry you even though he really is the right man for you. You're making Vince a part of this family. It's frustrating honey""I think you're getting old since you don't remember that Vince is Jasmine's husband." she didn't even want to understand what he was talking about so she let him be. If they started arguing about Ray, they'd never leave the house. Changing the subject she ask

"Wow you look like a princess""You forget that she is a Princess" Jazz bumped her mother smiling. They'd gone all out with the dress, a dazzling beaded bodice on flounced tulle ball gown that made her feel like the princess they kept calling her and the makeup was kept to a minimum. Her shoes were a pair of embroidered ivory lace heels that completed her look. She couldn't begin to imagine what they'd done with the venue.Ray had insisted on getting married in a church which was funny because normally the brides were the ones who did that. Not the bridegroom. But this was the man who loved her and wanted to make all her dreams come true. To him, that included giving her a church wedding. He really wasn't like any other man she knew, excluding her father of course. Last night he'd insisted on not s

"True" he replied straightening from the bed to stand in front of her. Slowly he took off his clothes, starting with the jacket then the bow tie. As he untucked his shirt, he noticed how her breathing had hitched and decided to give her show. Which was pure torture for him because he could see her glistening center from where he stood. Spread out and ready for him. But he was never one to back down from a challenge, especially if it involved her so he unbuttoned his shirt with trembling fingers. Inwardly rejoicing when he was one less button away from being naked. Then came his belt, pants, and boxers which proved to be difficult since he still had his shoes on. Alexis tried to close her knees together but he knelt between her to stop her, not wanting to lose sight of that wet pussy and kicked his shoes off while cursing because the action was taking too long. He snapped his head up when he heard her giggle.

"Ray" Alexis breathed, letting out air she hadn't known she'd been holding. It took a lot of effort on her part to keep a neutral expression on her face. A few minutes passed as she just stood there staring at him, afraid of blinking in case he was an apparition. When she was convinced that he was real, she let her shoulders sagged in relief. At that moment she wanted to do a lot of things like hugging him or kiss him or slap him but her body wouldn't move. She was frozen in place not actually believing her eyes. It was him. He was there, standing in front of her looking dashing in a tuxedo suit. Her breath caught in her throat and she wondered if this is the same man she'd seen in that orange jumpsuit. There was no trace of that man at all. The beard he'd had from days of not shaving was gone. The Ray standing in front of her was different and dare she say happy? But why would he be happy? Shouldn't he still be mad at her? And when did h

"Lexi you have an hour to get ready. Red or black?" Jayden barged into her room announcing. He had two gowns on either hand, holding them up for her to see."Did I miss something?""Yeah. Dad needs you to accompany him to this event he has to attend so hurry up""Really? Why can't mom go with him? I don't feel like going anywhere" she grunted letting her head fall back on the pillow. The police had told her that Copeland was the killer but it would take them a few days to let Ray go due to the amount of paperwork that needed to be signed. Add the fact that most government officials were on holidays, they'd said a week at most. She didn't know if he would come to see her or if he'd keep being mad at her. God forbid he went to see Odessa first. The thought of them together made her pull the

"We found photos of you and your girlfriend, together and apart. It looked like he had been stalking you for a while. We also found the clothes he had worn when he'd killed ConnorGrey. They were hidden in his closet and the DNA matched. We're still investigating but all I can say for now is that your business partner was obsessed with your girlfriend. It happens when people think they're in love but by killing Mr. Grey, Duke Copeland had taken his obsession to the next level. There's no saying what he would have done to Miss Rutherford hadn't she ran from him. These kinds of cases are a bit hard to solve because we never really know when the perpetrator's behavior escalates. Most stalkers start out innocently. It's always to keep someone they love safe or just wanting to know the person's every move. Until they feel betrayed or something snaps inside them. Then they s

She swallowed. How did he know about her apartment? Did Ray tell him? "Thank you. That was really nice of you""Anything for you my little bird," he said taking a bite of the bagel. It was the second time he'd called her that. She didn't want to know why he kept calling her 'little bird'. If she asked too many questions, she'd spook him. So she kept her mouth and ate her breakfast. Alexis was so busy trying to find a way out instead of actually eating, that she missed her mouth and spilled coffee on herself."Crap," she said standing up. Copeland did too."Don't worry. I'll get you something to clean the mess with" he said hurrying to the kitchen. She couldn't stop him this time so she did the only thing she could think of. Ran out the door barefoot. There was an elevator but she kn

Alexis paced back and forth in front of her bed fuming. She should have taken her mother's advice and pulled Odessa's hair. That damn woman was everywhere. She'd left home willing to give Ray a chance to explain himself. She was so ready to listen until she saw Odessa, sitting there and talking to him like she had every right to. But then again it was her fault, wasn't it? She'd served Ray on a silver platter when she'd told Odessa she could have him.Even so, she didn't think Ray would fall for her tricks. They'd signed the divorce papers. So then why did he keep seeing her? Wasn't there a rule about not keeping in touch with exes or something? Dammit. Why was she letting that woman get to her? Her intention hadn't been to fight with Ray. She had carried the ring in the hopes that he'd get down on one knee and propose the right away after th
