"Let Ellis go, now!" a male voice yelled loudly.I looked up to see Jesse! "Jesse! Just in the nick of time. Thank god!" I said with a sigh of relief."Yeah I know, you bastard. If I would've been a few minutes later, you would be dead, Ellis." Jesse said sternly."Drop your guns!" one of the policemen yelled out.Bennett shook his head in disbelief. "Why are you guys here? Nothing is wrong here, officers." Bennett said softly to the policemen."Shut up, drop your weapons!" a male police officer yelled out.Bennett cocked his head in confusion. "Umm, I'm not sure what the problem is here, officers. But you do realize who I am, right?""Yeah, we know who you are, Bennett Klein. That doesn't matter to us. Now hands up!" the officer yelled."My family works well with the police force. We help deal with the black market. Why are you guys here bothering me now? Why today?" Bennett asked as he held up his hands."You're under arrest, Mr. Bennet Klein!" another officer yelled out.I flipped
**Olivia POVMy heart thumped loudly inside my chest, racing a mile a minute. My body started to feel really warm and then I could feel sweat start to form on my forehead. Chills went up my spine as I felt the color on my face drain rather quickly. My face must have looked as white as a ghost. My mouth gaped open in fear and in shock.I saw that gun pointed at me and fear grew inside me. I didn't know whether Nancy would really pull that trigger or not. But I didn't get to see much else after I heard gunshots since Ellis covered my eyes. My whole body shook as I felt the trauma unfold before my eyes.I felt nervous and scared to death about the whole thing. As Ellis held me in his arms, my mind began to wander. I wondered what would have happened if I had been just a little bit too late. Questions ran through my mind. Would Nancy really pull that trigger on Ellis? I couldn't imagine that horror. As Ellis started to whisper inside my ear, I felt speechless. I couldn't talk and I felt
**Olivia POV"Morning, baby. Are you ready to go visit Herman?" Ellis asked me as soon as I opened my eyes."Sure. Do you think he will like me? Do you think he will accept me and Ken?" I asked nervously as I sat up in bed.Ellis nodded at me. He smiled from ear to ear. He said, "Of course he will, baby. He's a loving guy."I nodded. I didn't know what to say. I felt Ellis rub my back and it soothed me. He also kissed my neck, which gave me chills up my spine. Feeling his tongue on my neck made me quiver with desire. It also made me forget about my nausea."Mom, Dad! You're awake!" Ken yelled loudly as he came rushing in.Ellis hurried to remove his mouth from my neck. I could feel he was disappointed that he couldn't continue. But he also did enjoy seeing his son. "Hi, buddy!" Ellis said happily.I saw Ken jump onto the bed. The bed bounced and made my stomach churn and do a flip-flop. More nausea hit. I put my hand on my stomach and rubbed it lightly. I hated waking up in the morning
**Ellis POV"What's going on? You're not spending time with Olivia?" Jesse asked me.I was sitting at the bar and drinking a beer. My friend Jesse had just opened a new Red Sea in Boston. I felt happy for him. It was what he really enjoyed. I could see Jesse smile a lot while he helped other customers.I took another drink and shook my head. I liked hanging out here because it wasn't very full of people. Plus, I didn't have to enjoy anyone's company here except for Jesse. I like to enjoy being around only a few people at a time. "My house is full of people now, Jesse. It feels crowded.""Hey, you should be happy that Herman is back at the mansion." Jesse reminded me of the good news."I am happy. But it just feels overly crowded, with not enough time to go around to enjoy everyone's company," I complained and then took another gulp of the beer."Besides, you made Olivia's day when you invited her mother to come to stay at the estate. She was missing her family, you know. It makes you l
Ken and Kevin rushed in, their eyes widening when they saw the ring on my finger. Ken squealed in delight. "Yay, Mom and Dad are getting married! Finally!" he said."Congrats, when's the wedding?" asked Kevin, who seemed almost as excited as Ken. I felt speechless. I wanted to be happy and excited, but I couldn't find the words. Ellis answered for me. "I think two months will be a good time, just enough time to get everything ready." The words hung in the air, and I felt a weight descend in my stomach. Could I really get ready in that short of a time to do something so big and life-changing? Could I forgive Ellis for all the lies? I would need to seriously think this over. Ellis seemed to understand, and he lightly touched my arm. "It's okay," he said quietly. "You don't have to decide right now. Take your time and think it over." I nodded, feeling relieved. I looked out the window, my thoughts taking me far away. I thought about the past few months, about all the secrets, the d
Ellis grabbed me from behind. Since everyone was asleep now, I could feel Ellis push his body into mine. "I want to enjoy you while we're on a cruise ship." Hearing those words made me quiver with desire. Goosebumps formed on my arms and a chill went up my spine. Ellis grabbed my body and carried me to our room placing me on the bed. I giggled as I reached for him. My fingers crept up his thighs, playing over his skin until I could grab hold of his shaft. Feeling his muscles tense and hearing him moan made me also moan. My hips bucked forward, and the shaft moved under my hand.I felt his hand on my chest and one of the cups of my bra moved down. His fingers dug into my breasts and pinched my nipples. My other breast sprang free, and the air moved across it like waves on the ocean.His tongue darted out to lick his lips as he backed up away from me. I pulled him toward me with my hand on his shaft. For several long moments, Ellis explored my body with his hands and mouth. I wiggled u
On the day of the wedding, the island was alive with excitement. The weather looked perfect for this special day. No wind or rain would ruin this special moment for me. I felt thankful for that. Ellis and I were finally tying the knot! It felt like we’d been together and engaged forever without any progress. Now our families and friends are here to witness the special moment. I wore the stunning white wedding gown with golden design on it. Everyone could see my bare shoulders since it would be off-the-shoulder, which I loved since you didn’t see off-the-shoulder dresses that often. Seeing Ken and Kevin go down the aisle made me smile wide. They both looked good in black and white tuxes. I walked down the aisle with my father. It felt so special to me. Once I stood in front of Ellis, I could see him dressed in a classic black tuxedo. The vows came now and I held my breath as I heard Ellis speak loudly and clearly. “My dearest Olivia, we have been through some rough times. Again, I d
**Ellis POVThe last leg of our journey home was a flight that felt longer than the entire cruise. It probably didn't help that it was the middle of the night. Everyone looked exhausted as we all sat in the plane. I dozed off from time to time. Holding Olivia’s hand as much as possible the entire way. It felt nice to finally get into the limo and see the familiar surroundings. It was nice to be back in Boston. The ride from the airport to the house didn't seem to take all that long. Once the limo stopped in front of the Peterson mansion, I sighed with relief. Everyone climbed out and rushed inside.As soon as we stepped inside, we were greeted by a familiar face. My grandfather, Herman, held out his arms wide with a bright smile. I smiled happily at him and set our bags down for a moment. “Welcome home,” Grandfather Herman greeted us. He was beaming with joy. “Did you have a wonderful wedding trip? I’m sorry I couldn’t make it, but I’m so glad you’re here now.”“We’re glad to be home
