Hey everyone. This is a short one. We are in the middle of a red alert for a heat wave in England, and being eight months pregnant is kicking my ass. I can't focus as I am boiling and tired. I will update another chapter tomorrow. I am sorry if you are disappointed by the new chapter, but that was the best I could do. There was more to it, but it will be on tomorrow's chapter.
Killian POV The drive to the warehouse took longer than I wanted it to. But using my helicopter helped. It got me there in under two hours. I lean against the side of the door in the dark as I watch the dynamic happening. I close my hands into fists inside my pockets as I see the way Selina is looking at Ashley. The team has done a great job making me believe she has been beaten up and used in so many ways that it’s making my stomach turn. I can see the paper with the words don’t come looking for me that Ashley is holding for the photos, and I smile. That bastard won’t even know what hit him. When he is so desperate to look for her, making deals, he will never be able to comply. I will end him and come out publicly with Ashley as my woman. “Stop smiling”, Selina snaps at Ashley, nodding her head, and taking a deep breath. I stop leaning against the side and cross my arms in front of my chest as I watch her interaction with Ashley. She has been snapping at her and looking at her as
Ashley POV As I look down at his body I feel my heart beating fast and my stomach fluttering. He is an amazing specimen. How can someone like him want someone like me? Killian rips the clothes from my body like a hungry man. His hands touching my skin sent jolts of pleasure as I have never felt before. I can feel my face warming up as his hungry eyes look me up and down, taking me in. Without a second thought, I cover my body with my arms, hugging myself, trying to cover my fat stomach, my thick legs, my big breasts. Killian’s face twists and he shakes his head as he grabs my hands pulling them away from my body. “Don’t you ever hide from me”, Killian tells me, his voice strong, commanding and I can’t stop myself. I nod my head as he grabs my hand and places it on top of his massive cock. I can feel the piercings on it and I can’t help but gasp. “This is what you do to me woman”, Killian whispers as he takes my lips in his. He pulls me to bed as I fall in the middle of it, Killi
Killian POV “Hey, are you okay?” Theo asks as he enters the office. I lift my eyes meeting his. It’s been a while since I have been so uneasy. I could kill someone. I nod as I don’t want to tell him what happened to Ashley. It’s not my place or my story to tell. “Any news on Lorenzo?” I ask as he sits in front of me; at the same time, Elliot walks into the room. His breathing was heavy, and his face flustered. I stand up, and he looks at me, his eyes going wild. “They’re here”, he says, and I frown, looking out the window to see four SUVs stopping in front of the house. I look at Theo, and he starts running out of the room, knowing exactly what he has to do. I grab my gun from my table and open the safe behind my desk. I dial the code, and the door opens. Elliot starts grabbing weapons and bullets. Fucking great, that’s all I need right now. “How did they find us?” I ask, and Elliot shrugs as he keeps getting himself equipped. I grab my bulletproof vest and put it on as I keep get
Ashley POV I still can’t believe what happened today, my mind is moving so fast that I can’t even begin to comprehend everything. I know the doctor is coming to attend to his wound, but I still feel like I should be doing something. “I was so scared”, I let out, my hands are shaking as I clean my mouth on the towel. As I look into his eyes I can see how the wheels on his brain are moving. There’s a knock on the door and he walks opening it. A tall skinny black haired woman smiles at Killian and I feel my stomach turning again. “Getting into trouble again?”, she asks as she steps inside and Killian nods his head. He knows her, she is absolutely gorgeous. She places her case on top of the table in the corner and tells Killian to sit down. I wrap my arms around my body. I feel like I should leave. I shouldn’t be here. I can see her eyes on him, how many women has he had sex with? I can feel the sexual tension between them, but fuck. Who wouldn’t want him? He is a greek god in a man
Killian POV “Do you have everything you need?”, I ask Ashley as she grabs a small box. I walk to her taking it away from her hands and she smiles. I put it on the bed and she raises her eyebrow at me. I wrap my arms around her waist. Pull her close to me and she looks up as she wraps her arms around my neck. Slowly I draw circles on her lower back as she moves onto her tiptoes and kisses me softly. I can’t believe I am this lucky, Ashley is the best thing that has ever happened to me, and I need to keep her safe. Even if it is the last thing I do with my life, I will never allow her to be treated like she was before. “If you keep kissing me like that I won’t be able to walk out of this room”, I say between kisses and she giggles. Her hands move down my arms to my chest and down my stomach. Slowly she moans in my mouth as my hands grab her ass. I lift her from the floor and put her on the bed. Ashley gasps against my lips as we both fall on the bed. I hover over her and she opens h
Ashley POV “Careful”, I hear Theo shouting as I open my eyes and a bright light comes facing us. Elliot manages to move us from the car facing us, but we slam the car against a tree, and everything goes dark. I open my eyes, not knowing how long after, as I hear a commotion. I’m stuck, and my head is aching so much. I flinch as I look to my side, and Killian is bleeding from his head, and his eyes are closed. “Killian, baby”, I say, undoing my belt and getting closer to him. “Ashley, don’t move”, I hear Elliot say, and I look up to see guns pointing at the car from the outside. I gasp in horror. “What is going on?”, I ask in a low tone as the door next to me flies open, and someone holds on to me. “Let go of me, don’t touch me” I start kicking, but my body doesn’t really want to react. It Doesn’t want to obey me. “Stay still lass, you’re safe”, I hear a thick Irish accent. I frown, looking around as Killian is being moved from the car. His body was floppy and his eyes closed. “Kil
Hey everyone.This is just a short message to explain what is going on with me and what is going to happen now. I have been having contractions for the past week, been really uncomfortable and feeling very anxious. Last night I woke up at midnight and the contractions didn’t stop. They were painful and close together. I called the maternity ward in theMorning and was sent in. So basically…. I have gone into labour early. So I won’t be updating this book during the month of August. I need to rest and I want to have lots of cuddles with my little one. Updates will go back in September.I hope you all understand. I was supposed to have my C-section on the 12th of August. But baby girl decided that she wants to be born early. Stay safe
Killian POV I open my eyes and I am hit immediately by a shock of pain, my entire body aches and my head feels like it is about to explode. I frown and as I take my hand to my head I realize I have a cannula in. I look at my arm and then slowly look around the room, it's all white and clean. The liquid is being injected into my veins. I frown and sit up on the bed feeling a sharp pain in my right arm. Fuck. I look to see it all bandaged. What the hell? I pass my free hand through my hair and blink a couple of times. By the looks of this room and by what is happening I assume I am in some sort of private clinic. I see a bell and as I am about to press it the door opens and a blonde woman walks in. Her hight heels clicked on the white floor. “Oh, you’re awake, I’ll get the doctor”, she says as she smiles and walks out of the room again. I raise my eyebrows and a sense of panic takes over me as I remember what happened last night. Where is Ashley? Theo and Elliot? That was a massive att
Theo POV I can't believe that my best mate is getting married today. I am his best man with Elliot, and I can say that we never saw this day coming. I remember the day that he introduced me to Ashley, and I thought he was joking. She is nothing like the type of woman he used to go for, and He used to date the model type and not really date. He would have occasional sex with them, and that would be it. "Mate, I hope she makes you happy", Elliot says and Kill looks at him and nods his head. He is the quietest of the three of us, always deep in thought while I have verbal diarrhea. "Shall we go for a fag?" I ask, standing up and patting my pockets to find my fags. The other two stand up, following me. "I need to tell Ashley", Killian says, and Elliot moves his phone that makes a whip sound, and I can't help but laugh out loud. That is the funniest shit ever. Elliot smiles as Kill flips us the bird. We walk towards the bathroom, and he knocks on the door. "Babe, I'm going for a fag
Ashley POV I look in the mirror and smile as I see myself wearing the most beautiful wedding dress I have ever seen, this time one I chose, this time something simple and something I will treasure for the rest of my life. I love Killian so much that I can’t wait to get this day over and done so I can be his wife. So I can be his for the rest of my days until death. Or not even then. Because I know that even if I die I will linger around him. Not letting him meet anyone else. ever. There’s a knock, on the door, and Mark and Jonah walk into the room. I smile as they walk towards me both smiling and looking at me as if I am the most beautiful woman in the world. “Wow, you look beautiful,” Mark says and I smile thanking him. “How nervous are you?”, Jonah asks and I shrug, I am not really nervous. I am more excited. I am excited about this next chapter of my life. I am excited to be Killian’s wife, I am excited to be spending the rest of my day with him. “Everything is ready, and Kill
Ashley POV “Babe, wake up”, I hear Killian whisper in my ear. I open my eyes slowly and see him smiling as he looks at me. The sun shone behind him, making him look like a blue-eyed angel. I kiss his lips softly and his hands rest on my stomach. “How are you feeling?”, he asks as he kisses my stomach and I frown looking at him. “Good”, I say and he smiles as his hand moves up and down my stomach. “What are you doing?”, I ask and he kisses me again as he whispers into my belly. I freak out and sit on the bed pulling away from him and I see it, my pregnant belly. Panic takes over and I open my eyes. I am breathing fast and heavily as Killian turns around to face me. “Was just a bad dream baby”, he whispers in the dark and I smile. We have arrived in Ireland yesterday and we have been for dinner with his “family” and today we are on our own. I can’t wait to go out exploring with Killian. “What were you dreaming about?”, Killian asks as we sit at the kitchen table after getting read
Killian POV Italy has been great, but Ashley has been working like mad since she arrived here. She had meetings and gala events and I can’t believe this is happening. She has to go alone because an Irish bloke would never be seen in those meetings. Marcello traveled here yesterday and is keeping her company while I stay in a fucking hotel room. “I know. I am sorry,” she says as she walks through the hotel room. She walks straight to me and wraps her arms around my neck, pulling me close to her for a kiss. I kiss her deeply, wrapping my arms around her waist, and her hands move to my hair. I close my eyes as she moans against my lips as my hands move down towards her ass, and I give her a hard squeeze. “What are we doing tonight?”, she asks, and I look round and smile. She rolls her eyes, pulls away from me, and smacks me in the arm. I grab her arm and pull her close to me again as I kiss her neck, and she moans against me, her body melting against mine. I take a deep breath inhali
Ashley POV I open the dressing room door and walk in pulling my luggage. I place them on the table in the center and open them. What do I need to take? I have no clue. I look at all my swimsuits and I pick up three of them and shove them into a small bag. I walk around picking up all the clothes I might need. Then I move to the shoes. I finish packing my luggage and I start packing my make-up. As I am leaving the bathroom Killian smiles at me from the bed where he is resting with only his boxer shorts. One of his arms is behind his head. His broad tattooed chest is in the open for me to enjoy. I walk to the bed drop my bag on the floor and crawl to him. Softly I kiss him on the lips and he wraps his arms around my waist pulling me to him. I can’t help but let out a small scream and I start laughing as he straddles me and starts pulling the t-shirt I’m wearing off of my body. “Babe, we don’t have time for this, I need to pack”, I let out and Killian kisses me to shut me up. I smile a
Killian POV “Yes, I am on my way there. Where would I be going if not to sort out my shipment that is being held”, Ashley says using the most sarcastic tone I have ever heard. I can tell she is upset but I am only doing what she asked me to. I am only treating her business the same way I treat all the others. She didn’t want special treatment and I understand why, but now she can’t be pissed at me for not giving her special treatment. I pass my hands through my hair pulling it back. “Don’t use that tone with me Ashley, and I am just looking out for my business. You said you wanted me to treat you like any other business associate, and that’s what I am doing”, I let out as I shove my hand into my pocket as start to pace around. I can see Marcello on his phone with a slight grin on his face and I frown looking at him. I signal at Theo and he nods his head walking to Elliot. He gives him a small head signal and I can see Elliot typing away on his phone and quickly walking to me. “I k
Ashley POV I open my eyes and my entire body is sore. I moan as I move my legs and arms rolling to my side. The bed is cold, I open my eyes to find that Killian is not in bed anymore. I frown as I hug his pillow sniffing it. I feel like such a creep doing this… I smile against it before getting up and struggling to walk to the bathroom. I close my eyes resting my hands on the sink and when I open them I see my bruises on my face and arms. I flinch as I touch the one on my shoulder. Fight training has been brutal and Theo is not taking it easy on me. I have been dealing with so much shit that I don’t know how I am still breathing. It’s been one year since I took over the Italian mafia, everything is going well, Killian and I moved into a big house where the Irish and the Italian don’t exist. Here we are just a couple, a normal, regular couple. In here we don’t discuss work and we don’t mention anything from the outside. This is our safe haven and that’s how I want to keep it. No guns
Killian POV I am sitting in the back of the car with Ashley, her hands are on mine and they are freezing. I close my eyes slightly and rest my head back. I don’t like this at all. I don’t trust any of those blokes and I know she is in danger there. Theo and Elliot will be escorting us in. I know I won’t be able to protect her on my own in there. There are too many of them and not enough of me. Ashley holds my hand tight when the car comes to a stop. We park in front of the modern-looking building. Ashley looks at me, offering a small, shy smile as she opens the door and exits the car following me. I stand next to her as I slam the car door and hold her hand. We walk inside hand in hand and I can see all the security of the different mafias eye each other, and Elliot and Theo follow us. “They can stay outside,” a large man guarding the double doors says. Ashley shakes her head and I open the door, and Elliot and Theo follow us inside. We are given a stinky eye but I don’t care what t
Ashley POV “Hello, sunshine,” I say as soon as I see Theo. He looks at me and only gives me a small nod as I place my hand on his shoulder. He is still upset with me because of what I did yesterday. I wish he could only see that I am trying to help him. I want him to be happy the same way I am. Before I met Tobias, I thought I would never find love, and I know now that he was a means to an end, that I had to pass him to get where I am today, to meet the love of my life, to be happy and think about a family someday. I want that for everyone, and I want everyone to feel the same happiness I feel. “What the fuck is wrong with him?”, Killian asks Elliot and he shrugs before kissing me on the cheek as I sit next to him, nesting my coffee between my hands. Killian walks to the coffee machine and pours himself some coffee, and walks to stand between the boys and face me. “So? What’s the plan?” Elliot asks, putting his phone down, and Theo mimics his reaction and looks at the two of us. I s
