Elena's POV He cupped my face with one hand and with his other hand he pulled me roughly against his firm chest. Then he brushed his lips over mine when I didn’t pull away he finally kissed me. I parted my lips to allow him to dive his tongue, he explored my mouth kissing me like a starved man. I was breathless within seconds as he moved us towards the couch. We parted away to take a breath. I shoved him on the couch and climbed on him. I wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled his face closer to mine. I took his bottom lip between my teeth, nibbling on it while he held my waist. Finally, I pressed my lips on his, feverishly kissing him. It felt like he was my antidote of the pain. He responded to my kiss passionately by pulling me closer, I felt his arousal stabbing me and I clenched my leg around his waist. Jake groaned when I started to move creating a gratifying friction between us. Jake deepened the kiss; his mouth was generating hot lava of passion in my belly which was d
Elena's POV“Umm, we can order some pizza and stay in bed. I really don’t feel like dressing up. Besides, I don’t have any clothes here,” I told him.He pulled out a huge box from the closet, it was tied with a dark blue ribbon, and he shoved it into my hands.“What’s this?” I asked inspecting the box from outside.“It has everything that you need to get dress and go out with me,” he said with a grin on his face.“So someone came prepared,”“You can say that,”He pulled out a navy blue color suit.“Don’t tell me that you are going to wear a suit? We are not going to the wedding, are we?”“We need to leave soon so you better get dressed in time.” He said pinching my nose and leaving the room with his suit.I looked at the heavy box in my hand and placed it on the bed then untied the ribbon. When I lifted the lid I gasped in shock, there was sitting a baby blue color dress that looked like it came out from some Cinderella’s movie with a pair of crystal heels and a makeup bag. I pulled o
Elena's POV“Elena Edwards, will you do me an immense honor of becoming my wife?”“Jake? Is this true? Are you sure?” I asked him in my shaking voice.“I’ve never been this sure for anything in my life before,” he answered.I stretched my trembling hand forward, chanting yes. He didn’t waste a single second in slipping the ring onto my finger and wrapping his arms around my waist.“You have made me the luckiest man on this earth tonight,” he said.I cupped his face and pressed my lips on his, kissing him passionately. His hand was resting on my waist while his other hand was in my hair, pulling my head closer to deepen the kiss.Our kiss was sloppy, fanatical, not perfect, but the passion we were feeling was beyond any fairytale description. It felt like we couldn’t get enough of each other.Suddenly, someone yanked me away from him. I looked at the intruder to see furious Brandon glaring at us.I was confused, shocked, and angry at the same time. Jake grinned, looking at my brother n
Elena's POV “I promise if I’ll find another pregnancy test in your room then I would throw a baby shower for you.” He draped his arm over my shoulder dragging me towards our parents and Jake. “She has forgiven me,” Eric announced. Dad glared at him and mom raised her eyebrows at us. I nodded my head to let them know he was right. “But Eric you’re still under the radar,” Brandon said with the smirk. “So...I am off the hook. Right?” Eric asked. “You’re still going to work with Chris in his firm for two months on your break. This is your punishment for not coming to your parents first. We have done our best to teach you all some discipline but you still disappointed us that night. Doing a job in the law firm will teach you how to obey rules.” Dad declared. Eric’s face dropped. “You know I am sorry for what I’ve done,” Eric said making a puppy face. “We know, dear. But you still need to do this. You’ll work with Chris before your next semester starts.” Mom said. “Okay, okay. I’
Elena's POV“Can I have your number?” I said stopping her and handing her my phone. She took my phone and typed her number hastily before leaving.My parents looked upset but relieved at the same time. Brandon still had a frown on his face. Madeline, Alyssa, Noah, and Eric were relieved too. On the other hand, Jake was standing like a monument with his hands inside his pocket and looking at the ground.I walked to him and placed my hand on his shoulder. He looked at me then gave me a soft smile.“Are you okay?”“I’m fine. I’ll just go inside and freshen up.” He said making his way inside the manor.“Do you think it’s a coincidence that Hanna’s twin sister appeared here?” Brandon asked breaking the ice.“I think it is a coincidence,” I said.“I agree with Elena,” Madeline said.“Me too,” Alyssa said.“I think it’s pretty late and we should leave. I am really tired,” Mom said.Everyone agreed with her.“So are you coming with us?” Noah asked me.“I think I’ll stay with Jake tonight,” I
Elena's POV“We do? You’ve only two.”“Well, I have four. One is married too,”“Wow, what have I missed?” I asked him.“Jacob went to meet Veronica; he told her how I was shot and he saved my life. She called me to know about my health. We got into a heated argument; she said they always considered me their brother no matter what. They hated me all these years because Amanda brainwashed them. She forced them to hate me but they never really felt the hatred.”“Did they apologize to you for their actions?”“They both did. Veronica even wants to introduce me to my nephew and niece. They will be coming to meet us soon. They said that they wanted to have a new start as a family.”I was surprised but delighted at the same time. I hugged him.“I’m so happy to hear that. Now, you have the family that you always wished for. You have everything, Jake.”He looked at me with tears in his eyes.“I do and that’s only because of you. You brought the ghost of my past and destroyed them to give me the
Jake's POV I held my breath as Bryan, my almost eight years old nephew, handed me a ring with a cheeky smile. I returned him a grateful smile as he made his way back to Brandon. I put the ring on her finger with a kiss on the back of her hand. “I give you this ring as a symbol of my promise.” Elena took the band from Madeline’s hand and slipped it on my finger with trembling hands. “I give you this ring as a symbol of my promise,” she repeated. “They have pledged to be loyal and loving towards each other in our presence and sealed their promises by exchanging the rings. Therefore, it is my pleasure to pronounce them husband and wife. You may now kiss the bride!” The officiant said stepping away from us. Without wasting a second, I grabbed my lovely wife from her waist and pressed her to my chest. A gasp in shock escaped from her mouth. “Aren’t you too eager to kiss me, Mr. Jake Carter?” she mumbled, her breath fanning against my lips. “I’ve been dying to taste these luscious li
Jake's POV A year ago, Jacob and Veronica asked me to give them the key to our family house in Maine Coast. My relationship with my siblings was finally improving and I didn’t want to destroy it because of the property that our father left me responsible for. I gave them the keys and never asked them what they had in mind about the house. They renovated it and surprised me by officially signing the papers of that house to my name one month ago. It was one of the many wedding gifts they gave to me. And Elena wanted us to spend our wedding night in that house. After two hours and thirty minutes of the drive, we arrived at our house and I decided to wake up my sleepy bride. “Elena, baby, we are here,” I said, shaking her shoulder. She was a heavy sleeper and showed no signs of waking up. Arthur opened the car door and I handed him the keys of the house. “I think I’ll have to carry her,” I said, picking my bride in my arms and pulling her out of the car. Arthur unlocked the main do
