***LOGAN'S POV*** “You imbecile!” I snapped as I hit the tip of the gun on one of my idiot men's head, sending him to the ground. “I'm sorry, boss. Please forgive me.” He pleaded and I clenched my fist. “Who told you to fucking shoot at a kid?! I simply said scare Easton a little you fool!” I thundered and he lowered his head to the ground. “I'm sorry, boss. I'm sorry.” “You better pray that man doesn't die or I'll kill you myself!” I yelled before storming into my house. How could they mess up a simple plan like this?! I knew I have gone myself but what's the point of having them if I have to do every fucking thing myself! “How did it go?” I turned around to see Nicole standing by her door. “What do you think?” I asked and continued my way up the stairs. “Judging from the look on your face, I'd say something went wrong?” She asked with a knowing grin. “Just say what's on your fucking mind before I lose my patience.” I responded not stoping until I was back in my study and s
***EASTON'S POV*** I paced back and forth in the waiting room as I awaited news from the doctors. Jerald had been rushed into the emergency operation room and we were yet to hear from them. It's been half an hour now and Sandy had cried herself to sleep on Helen's laps. Alfred looked extremely sad and he just sat there quietly, so quiet that I was beginning to worry something was wrong with him as well. Did he get hurt from the fall somehow? “Easton! Alfred!” I turned around in shock on hearing Mirabella's voice and no, I wasn't hallucinating. She was right there as she rushed towards us, looking a bit disheveled. “Mommy!” Alfred suddenly burst out crying as he ran into Mirabella's arms. “I'm so sorry, sweetheart. I shouldn't have left you alone. Mommy is so sorry.” She cried out as she hugged Alfred as though her life depended on it. “Are you hurt? Does it hurt anywhere?” She asked worriedly as she scrutinized Alfred's body and he shook his head. “Sandy's dad got hurt. He pu
TWO WEEKS LATER***MIRABELLA'S POV***As we watched the priest say a prayer over Jerald's grave, I couldn't stop the tears from streaming down my cheeks. I may not have known him for long, but knowing the fact that Sandy had lost both parents at such a young age really broke my heart.She was standing next to Easton and I and contrary to my expectations, she wasn't crying. She just stood there, silent, as though she didn't fully understand what was going on but I could see she was in pain. Her eyes looked very sad.Easton and I had tried to reach out to any of her extended family members but even after two weeks, we couldn't get a hold of anyone, and so we decided to hold Jerald's burial ourselves.After the ceremony, everyone began trying to comfort Sandy. Most parents from Blakemore Academy had come, including Helen and Gina.“We are so sorry, Little Sandy. Everything is going to be alright, okay?” Helen said to Sandy as she forced back her tears but the little one just stared at He
***EASTON'S POV*** I couldn't help but smile as I stared at Mirabella's sleeping face. She looked so calm and angelic at that moment and I found myself tucking a strand of her hair behind her ear. She had fallen asleep on the couch last night and I carried her to her room, but after placing her on the bed, she insisted that I stay back. I felt a strange feeling as I watched her slumber peacefully with her head resting on my left arm. This is probably the first time we have slept so close to each other and it just felt so right. I wanted to wake up like this every morning, greeted by her angelic face but I knew that would have to wait. I needed to get to the bottom of this, or I fear we won't be able to live our lives normally otherwise. I gently pulled my hand away from her head and she stirred in her sleep, turning towards the opposite side of the bed which gave me the opening to pull free without waking her up. I picked up my coat from the table before quietly leaving the room.
***MIRABELLA'S POV***I slowly opened my eyes as I ran my hand through the other side of the bed but it was empty. “Easton?” I called drowsily as I forced myself up but the room was empty.I clearly remembered falling asleep in his arms... Thinking about that now, I found myself blushing like a teenager who had just found out her crush likes her.I shook my head, getting rid of all thoughts and I went into the bathroom to have a bath.I walked into the living room after and froze on the sight that welcomed me.“Surrender now, villain!” Sandy yelled as she pointed her plastic toy sword at Roman.“Spider man and wonder woman saved the day again!” Alfred beamed and Roman pretended to have fainted.I chuckled, making my presence known to them.“Mommy, did you see that?!” Alfred beamed the moment he saw me.“I saw how handsome you look in your spider man outfit.” I responded and he giggled when I ruffled his hair.“It's good to see you're having fun too, Sandy.” I stated with a smile and
***LOGAN'S POV***“Why do you have a picture of my family?” She asked, her gaze firm as she awaited my response. At first I panicked a bit but then I realized that it doesn't change anything whether or not she finds out. She was in my home, and I had the upper hand. I know I said I would save her for last, but if things go sideways, then I might just start with her.“I mean, no offense but you do realize you're from a well known family right? Of course images of you would be loaded on the Internet.” I said in a playful manner as I walked up to her and took the photo from her.“So you printed it off the Internet? Why?” She asked again and I let out a light chuckle.“I was curious. I mean I was fascinated by you the moment I saw you, and yes I'll admit I shamefully stalked your photos online but I promise I have no ill intentions.” I responded and she furrowed her brows, as though not believing a word.“But this isn't why you came all the way to see me, is it? And I know you also didn'
***MIRABELLA'S POV***I sat nervously on the chair as I awaited the hearing to commence. Easton and I have been working our way into adopting Sandy, and Roman had offered to assist as our attorney. Everything has been settled and now it was time for the court hearing and the final stage which would determine whether or not Sandy would be ours or get sent to an orphanage.“All rise.” We heard the bailiff announce and the courtroom fell silent as Judge Thompson entered before taking her seat.Easton and I as well as Roman, took our places at the petitioner table.“This court is now in session. The matter before us is the adoption petition of Mirabella Brookwood and Easton Grey, seeking to adopt Sandra Willows, a four year old female child. Mr. Lawrence, please proceed." Judge Thompson said, and Roman stood up from his seat.“Thank you, Your Honor. My clients, Mirabella and Easton are before the court today, seeking to provide a loving and stable home to Sandy, who has been left without
***MIRABELLA'S POV***We got to Blakemore Academy shortly and I let out a deep breath.“Easton,” I called and Easton turned to me with a raised brow.“Is something wrong?” He asked and I shook my head."I was just wondering if we would be changing Sandy's last name. Since she's legally ours. " I asked and he seemed thoughtful for a while.“I think we should rush things. Sandy is still young and she might not fully understand her choices now. Let's give her time. By the time she turns sixteen, if she decides she wants to change her name or keep it, then we'll respect her wishes.” Easton responded and I bobbed my head in agreement.We alighted the car and went into the building to get our kids. “Ms. Brookwood.” Helen called when she spotted us. She seemed to be having a little chat with Sandy when we arrived.“It's good to see you, Helen.” I smiled at her.“Thank you both for choosing to take Sandy under your wings.” “It's no big deal. We love her and we owe it to Jerald.” Easton resp
~KIARA~ The rest of the week was a blast. Phoenix and I really bonded over a short period of knowing each other. She was wild, more wild than myself but really cool. We had a lot in common too, including our undying love for fashion.“My boyfriend is hosting a party tonight. Wanna come?” Phoenix asked me as we both battled each other in a game of street fighter.I decided to hang out at her place after our classes were over.“I think I'll pass. I promised to spend the night with my sis —”“Are you her babysitter? Come on, Kiki. I'm talking lots of drinks, yummy snacks and hot guys! How can you possibly turn this down over a night with your sis when you can spend the rest of your life with her?” Phoenix probed and I let out a sigh.I did say she was wild.The offer was great but I wasn't interested in hot guys. I just wanted one - Gabriel. And so far, I've been doing a really shitty job at getting him to fall for me. I haven't even seen him ever since he showed up at the apartment, an
~KIARA~It was as though the air in my lungs had vanished and I was suddenly breathless, my heart thudding violently against my chest and I could feel the palm of my hands getting wet. Why was I so nervous? I guess I wasn't expecting to see him first thing upon my arrival.“Hey, Kiddo. Sandy told me she would be here, so I came to pick her up.” Gabriel said with a small smile on those deliciously looking lips of his — godmanit what's wrong with me!“Oh... Um, she left a while ago.” I stuttered so badly that I wished the ground would just swallow me whole.But then it suddenly hit me. Sandy did this on purpose! Else why would she ask Gabriel to pick her up when she had her own wheels and she literally rushed out of the apartment. I bet she didn't even need to go to the clinic today.“Oh, well in that case —”“Would you like to come in?” I asked, cutting him off. I mean if Sandy wanted to play matchmaker, then I might as well make the most of it.“Sure.” He shrugged and I stepped as
~KIARA~I took a deep breath as I crossed the main gates of Ousen University, a bright smile on my face. I was finally in Ousen! My transfer application got approved a month ago, and now I was to complete my registration before finally being seen as an official Ousen student.“First day here?” I turned to the side and noticed a girl standing next to me. Her appearance took me aback at first but at second glance, it settled in.Her hair was a mix of purple and black, parted at the side and stopped just above her shoulders. She wore a black strapless crop top and light blue bum short, and had a bird tattoo on her shoulder which stopped some distance before her elbow, and lastly, a nose piercing.She was giving off gothic vibes and at first glance, one would think she was a meanie but I wasn't one to judge people based on appearance... Well since Natasha of course.“How did you know?” I asked with a slight smile.“You're standing at the gates with a bright smile on your face as though y
~SANDY~“Sandy, take me with you when next you go to meet your aunt.” Kiara suddenly blurted out and I turned to her with a smile.“You sure?”“Of course. I want to meet your cousins and who knows, Andrew might just be my type.” She squirled and I chuckled softly.“Over Gabriel already?” I asked her with a smirk and she stared at me in shock, her expression laced with panic as her eyes darted around the living room as though searching for someone or something.“Why would you say that out loud? What if Alfred heard you?” She asked worriedly.“Heard what?” Alfred walked in that moment and Kiara's face lost all colors.We were both in the living room, watching a movie and chatting. It's been ages since we spent time together this way and I decided to make the most of every little time at hand.Hailey had suddenly gone back home due to an emergency and we haven't heard from her for almost a week now.I really hope she was doing alright as this was unlike her to be unreachable for so long.
~SANDY~As disappointed as I was that I couldn't get my release, my priority at that moment was chasing after Kiara who had run out of the room after obviously being traumatized by what she had just seen.“Kiara, Kiara!” I yelled out her name but she kept running until she reached the living room before I finally caught up with her, dragging her back by her hand.“What were you thinking, Sandy?! I know I wanted you and my brother to be together but not like this! He's engaged for goodness sake!” Kiara scolded me but I simply smiled at her, happy she wasn't upset based on me being with Alfred but rather because she thought he was still engaged.“Kiara —”“Don't try to reason with me. I'm telling Mom right now so you two don't have to suffer anymore. If you're too much of a coward to make your relationship public then I will!” She snapped, cutting me off and was about to walk away but I pulled her back again.“Kiara it's not like that —”“Don't try to tell me it's not what I think. I cl
~SANDY~I smiled the moment we walked out of the airport, inhaling the fresh cool breeze that was blowing non-stop.We were finally back in New York and it felt like I had been gone forever.“You ready?” Alfred asked as he walked up to me, taking my hand in his and I bobbed my head in response, a bright smile on my face.We got to the mansion soon enough and Alfred rang the doorbell which opened shortly after, revealing a rather grumpy Kiara.Her face lit up the moment she saw me and she ran past Alfred as she engulfed me in a tight hug.“Sandy! My gosh you're finally back.” She beamed and I hugged her back tightly.“It's good to see you too, Kiki.” Alfred sighed and Kiara turned to him with a small smile.“Since you brought Sandy back in one piece, I guess I'm happy to see you too.” She responded before dragging me into the house.Mr. Easton had just settled down on the dining table, ready to have his breakfast when his gaze landed on us.“Sandy?” He called just to be certain and I b
~SANDY~ I slowly opened my eyes, feeling sore all over, especially between my legs. I felt a heavy weight like a blanket keeping me still and slowly realized it was Alfred's big arms wrapped protectively around me. My cheeks flushed as the memories of last night resurfaced. I couldn't believe what we did, what I did last night. It was as though I had been possessed by a lustful sex driven demon or something that just couldn't get enough of it. I slowly turned around, trying not to wake Alfred up. He was still fast asleep and looked utterly worn out. I did that. I must have drained him out last night, and to think it was actually my first time! “Did you sleep well?” His hoarse voice resonated in the room and I widened my eyes in shock. How long has he been awake?! He slowly opened his eyes, his beautiful hazel green eyes meeting my gaze. “Good morning.” He smiled at me and I found myself burying my face in the sheets. I didn't know how to face him after what happened. I didn'
~ALFRED~ As Sandy rode me, my hands found her hips, guiding her as she increased the pace, her breathy moans mingling with mine. We were two halves of a whole, our bodies moving in perfect harmony as we chased our release. “I love you!” She cried out, her body shuddering as she came, her inner walls clamping down on my cock. But she didn't stop, instead continuing to ride me with renewed fervor. I realized in that moment that I had unleashed a horny, sex-starved beast within Sandy. Sandy’s hunger for me was insatiable. As I tried to catch my breath, she reached for my hand and placed it on her breasts, urging me to pinch and twist her nipples as she rode me. “Oh, yes baby!” She moaned out while I cursed under my breath, letting out low groans of pleasure. My hips bucked against her, matching her frantic pace as I lost myself in the waves of ecstasy. I groaned as I came inside her once more, my release mingling with hers as we collapsed onto the bed in a sweaty heap. But
~ALFRED~ I broke the kiss after what seemed like forever, giving Sandy room to catch her breath as I leaned my head against hers. “This is your chance to back down, Sandra Willows. If we keep going at this rate, I won't stop until I've claimed all of you, every inch of you, and every fiber in your body as mine.” I warned but the look in her eyes told me she wanted this just as much as I did. “Take me, Alfred. I want you. All of you.” She breathed and I reconnected our lips almost immediately, this time in a more gentle kiss. I lifted her up in one swift motion, walking towards the dinning table and gently placing her on it without breaking the kiss. The kiss was a slow burn, our lips moving together in a sensual dance. I savored the taste of Sandy's lips, drinking in her moans and sighs as my hands roamed her body. Her skin was soft beneath my touch, her curves fitting perfectly into my palms. I felt her hands grip my shoulders, her fingers digging into my skin as our kiss intens
