Harper, an eighteen-year-old orphan fresh out of high school, yearns to claim her independence and make it into the cruel world on her own. Leaving the security of the only genuine family she's ever known, besides her father who passed away four years ago, she says goodbye to her foster parents who have sheltered her since she was fourteen. With her old SUV as her only sanctuary, she embarks on a journey across the United States in search of a college, a job, and a place she can call home. Finding romance was the last thing on Harper's mind, fueled by her father's last words to stay clear of men. But, what is she to do; when one fateful night an act of God thrusts her into the arms of a stranger who would change her life forever.

Destined Twist Of Fate Chapter Thirty-Two
LAYKENHaving spent the day walking the bustling city streets, our excitement was palpable. Throughout the day, I kept the ring in my pocket, unsure of when the perfect moment to propose would arise. The timing, however, never seemed quite right.As soon as her bare feet touched the cool water, a captivating transformation took place. A radiant smile graced her face, emanating warmth and peace. Her sparkling gray eyes reflected the full moon’s brilliance, twinkling with a touch of enchantment within them. Several emotions course through me. The tranquil lapping of the water against the shore echoed in my ears, heightening the anticipation. Time seemed to stand still as I realized that the moment had arrived - the perfect moment to slide the ring onto her finger, binding Harper and me together forever.As I reach into my shorts pocket and bring out the ring box, her eyes widen. I can’t help but smile down at her, gazing into her mesmerizing orbs. Her lips stretch into a broad smile spa

HARPERWe stopped at a shed that’s just a few yards away from the stream to gather our fishing poles and a tackle box. “We’re lucky my dad rigged up all the poles. That would take an extensive amount of time we don’t really have. But I’ll take the tackle box with us just in case.” He smiles over at me and points at all the fishing rods that are hanging from hooks on the wall. “The coral colored rod is Tenley’s, if you would like to use hers for now. Or you can use any of the others? All but this one, it’s mine,” he says, grinning as he pulls a black and gray fishing rod from the wall.Chuckling and shaking my head, I reach up and grab a black and green rod from the wall. “Somehow I knew the black and gray one was yours. I’m not surprised in the slightest. Whose pole does this one that I grabbed belong to?”“That pole is my dad’s. Don’t worry. He won’t be upset with you using his fishing pole.” Layken rounds me and pushes me towards the door.When we walk to the side of the shed, I see

LAYKENAlthough I want nothing more than to embrace Harper, undress her, and lose myself in the depths of her being, exhaustion has taken its toll on me. I couldn’t bear the thought of making her first time less than perfect and unforgettable. However, the time for us to ravish each other is rapidly approaching. Harper’s irresistible allure makes it challenging for me to restrain myself. For starting a family, I believe in waiting for a couple of years, if not longer. Harper still has so much life to live as a young adult. Countless adventures await her, and I want nothing but the best for her.“Call me old, but I don’t have the energy to walk, let alone make love to you, sweetie. It’s not that I don’t want to, because, believe me when I say I want to more than anything. We need nourishment before we even think of doing much else. Then I would like to take you to the stream. My brain is getting foggy and eyes are drooping. I’m on the verge of passing out.”Harper’s initial disappointm

LAYKENHarper’s eyes widen in surprise, a flicker of confusion crossing her face. She nuzzles me away, the cool touch of her hand lingering on my arm, as she swiftly makes her way to her closet. The sounds of bags rustling against each other fills the air. Moments later, she returns, the rustling of shopping bags echoing softly in the room. “What are you talking about, Layken?” she asks, her voice tinged with uncertainty. “I’m so confused. I thought we were going to the office.”She deposits all the bags next to me on the bed and blows a strand of hair out of her face. “What all do you have in these bags, Harper?”She blushes, then chuckles as she glances over at Tenley. “Clothes I purchased to take for the trip to Colorado. I haven’t washed them yet, so I hope there is a washer and dryer at the cabin,” Harper says, looking back over at Tenley with an apologetic smile. “Sorry girl, I guess we are leaving even earlier now than what I told you.”“It’s alright, don’t sweat it. I’ve taken

HARPER*Contrary to my expectation of heading straight to the office, Layken surprises me by taking a completely different route. It appears we were going back to Georgetown. I have no clue what his intentions are, but I can’t help but feel excited about the possibilities. The determination on his face as he drives only adds to the anticipation. Perhaps he’s taking me home, where we can finally release the sexual tension that has been building between us for weeks.Smiling over at him, I turn the radio on and place my hand on his thigh. “What’s going on?” He smiles, clutching my hand for a moment before putting his hand back on the steering wheel. “I have a prior engagement that I need to take care of before going to the office. Do you want to go back to your place or mine? It will only take me a few minutes, then I’ll be back to pick you up.”Well, crap, I thought maybe he was going to take us back to his place and have his way with me, but I suppose that would not be happening.“I

HARPERAfter the events with Jillian earlier today, followed by what just happened with Tenley, my nerves were all over the place. I can’t wait for this day to end. The anxiety from my morning appointment with Tambre is only adding to it. It shouldn’t be such a big deal, but because my life hasn’t been normal, I fear getting under birth control. Maybe if things were different, I wouldn’t be so afraid of having my own babies. I would love to have at least one baby with Layken, but I’m not sure if I can handle the stress.My biological mother had an IUD implant when she was eighteen, around the time she met my father. However, when she turned Twenty-One, she had it removed. Unfortunately, the IUD caused her fertility issues, resulting in multiple miscarriages before she finally conceived me. The hormones in the IUD had adverse effects on her health. Although there was no proof that the IUD caused her thyroid issues, she developed thyroid cancer during her pregnancy with me. Sadly, the d

LAYKENMy feet stayed firmly planted outside of Harper and Tenley’s apartment. Paralysis had overcome me, and I couldn’t bring myself to leave. If I could go back inside, swoop Harper off her feet and take her home with me, I would, but I can’t. I want so badly to heave her down on my bed and rip all of her clothes off and bury myself inside her. My desire for a woman has never been so strong. It’s becoming increasingly hard with each day that passes to not ravish her. I couldn’t wait any longer, but I needed to, for Harper’s sake.I rake a hand over my face, groaning in frustration. Taking a deep breath, I reluctantly stride towards my truck; struggling to control the desire to go back to her. I need nourishment and a back-breaking workout to relieve the tension coursing throughout my body. After jumping into my truck, I mindlessly drove into town. When I found myself parked outside of a jewelry store. I couldn’t remember how I had gotten there.‘What the hell is wrong with you?’ I m

HARPERI observed Layken as he made his way back to his office, noting the exhaustion clear in his demeanor. It dawned on me that I shouldn’t have kept him up so late the previous night. Still, I couldn’t help but cherish the serene moments we had shared, cuddling together before what I knew would be a demanding week ahead. Layken had even taken off his suit jacket and rolled up his sleeves, looking incredibly attractive. The temptation to heed his invitation and follow him into his office was strong. However, Jillian and I had established a comfortable work zone for ourselves, and I didn’t want to jeopardize that, particularly since I would work under her while Layken was away on his extended vacation.As Layken took a left instead of returning to his desk, a sigh escaped from my lips. I knew exactly what he would do - lie down on his couch. In that moment, I yearned to be by his side. Feeling a pulsing ache from deep within, I tightly crossed my legs, attempting to quell the desire

LAYKENEver since Harper started working here three weeks ago, I have attempted to keep my office door open at all times. Before her arrival, it was most always closed. I simply didn’t care to see what was happening beyond the walls of my sanctuary, if you can call it that. My office used to feel more like a prison, but things have changed. Nowadays, I leave my door open, unless Jillian, our legal assistants Jacob and Sasha, and I have clients here. Harper’s desk and work area are directly across from my office, and I find great joy in observing her work. Thanks to her presence, I have never felt so relaxed in the workplace.Hiring Harper was the best thing that could have happened to this firm. She is the most exceptional secretary I have ever worked with, and I say this because it’s the truth, not because she is my soulmate. Jillian and anyone else working here at the firm can attest to that. Her diligence and fantastic work ethic are loved by everyone. In fact, the other partners i

Chapter One
HARPER*My foster mom, Sarah, shakes her head with a sigh escaping her throat. “I wish you would stay here and let us pay for your tuition fees.” She sighs again as she sits on my bed and continues to rant in displeasure at me going so far away on the road alone. There are no funds available for my foster parents to cover my tuition fees. They would go into debt to help me. I could not allow that to happen. I’m an adult now, and need to devise a plan to attend college and cover the cost on my own.“Explore the option of getting an apartment nearby. That way, if anything happens, we could be there to help you as soon as possible.”Tears slip from her eyes as she watches me pack up the last of my belongings. Sarah is the only mother-figure I have ever known. My birth mother died during childbirth. Father raised me alone until a fatal hunting accident occurred. He survived the initial attack from being mauled by a bear, but died a few days after. I will always remember the last moments ...
