“I thought of introducing you to my daughter because you’re a great kid, Taylor, and it’s a shame that your girlfriend’s father hasn’t accepted you yet,” Adrian went on, not thinking straight. “But—”He sucked in a deep breath before resuming, “This isn’t the perfect timing. Charlie will be here in—
"If Dad doesn’t approve, we can run away to another country and live under new identities," Charlie said bitterly while helping Taylor slice onions. "I have enough money for us to raise a family with ten kids, and we wouldn’t even have to work—neither would our grandkids. So you don’t have to worry
Riley and Freya were still running late for dinner, so Adrian had the pleasure of tasting the dishes Taylor and Charlie had prepared beforehand.He sat at the table as Taylor and Charlie set the food. He narrowed his eyes, emitted his dominant aura, and asked, “What is this?”Taylor pointed to the s
“Guys, let’s welcome Taylor to the family!”Charlie: “…” Guardian Angel: '…' Inner Devil: '…'“Can you imagine?” Adrian said, looking excessively happy. “My precious baby girl and the governor’s grandson together? It’s—it’s what we’ve always wanted!”Taylor gave Charlie a look, silently asking if
“Charlie is so damn lucky,” Jasper added.“You know what the best part is?” Taylor shared. “I used almond flour for these. They’re gluten-free, lower in carbohydrates, higher in healthy fats and fiber, and packed with nutrients like vitamin E and magnesium.”“Damn!” Freya remarked. “Lucky Charlie ge
“Dad? What are you doing?” Charlie asked after Adrian inspected her trash.Adrian narrowed his eyes. “I’m just making sure there’s no—no—no—”Charlie kept waiting, but no words left his lips. Instead, Adrian sighed and said, “Never mind.”“I’m not doing drugs, Dad,” Charlie said with a frown.“Of co
“Good,” Adrian said.“Third rule,” Adrian resumed. “I expect a regular visit to Halliport, at least once a month. That way, I’ll know if Charlie is getting fat on one part of her body.”Charlie: “...”Her dad got a punch from her mom, but he continued. “This brings us to the fourth rule. Taylor, you
“Nice to see you again, Adrian, Riley!” Savannah said, waving goodbye.“Come and see us in Halliport too,” Riley encouraged.“We would love to,” Grayson said before turning to Charlie’s father. “Adrian, again, I’m really sorry we weren’t open about Charlie and Taylor’s relationship from the start. W
Dawn shook her head. “Let’s start with the good news.”“We have actual clothes. I found two of your shorts in here. They probably got mixed in with mine,” Maxwell said. “But the only shirts we have are these.”He pulled out one extra-large T-shirt with a print that read: [I Put the ‘Max’ in Maximum
Dawn felt the pain, but as soon as Maxwell pinned his bare body against her, the pleasure returned. The fact that they were skin-to-skin gave her a different level of happiness.“Max,” Dawn shut her eyes, noting how it felt to have something long and big inside her.It honestly scared her at first,
“Mmmm.” He heard Dawn react.He continued to kiss her jaw, then her neck. He gave her soft bites, licking a few parts of her skin while slowly moving down.“You smell so good, Noodle,” he said softly.When he stared at her breasts, his breathing hitched. He had been looking forward to getting his mo
Standing in front of Maxwell was a very slender Dawn wearing sexy, soft pink silk nightwear that flowed a few inches below her hip.And Dawn? She was covering herself with her hands. Her fair skin was on full display—from her chest, arms, and long legs. Her face was red, and she averted his gaze. Sh
By Friday, Maxwell still drove Dawn to the hospital. They had lunch together and came home together.Dawn was preparing to give a little more to their relationship—because why not? They had the ultimate green light—not just a nod, not just a wink. It was like their mothers were holding up signs: “GO
Yes, they welcomed Thomas into the house, but no, he wasn’t comfortable in any way.He was standing before Dawn while she was seated on the couch.And the entire time, Maxwell paced around the living room, repeatedly thrusting his fist into his palm as a warning. Mina stood behind them, throwing dag
“Thank you, Mrs. Hamilton. I’m really glad we talked,” Dawn said.But, it wasn’t just Mrs. Hamilton. At 10 a.m., Andi walked up to her desk.“Wow, I saw you and Maxwell Turner kissing outside. I—” she gulped, “I’m sorry. He’s hot, by the way. You’re so lucky.”Dawn just stared at her, then calmly re
Luxford Iron Pulse was taking a one-week break. So, many of the players were in their hometowns, resting and spending time with family.Since Maxwell was free, he brought Dawn to work on his motorbike.Dawn was fixing her hair after removing her helmet in the parking area. She was about to head into
Maxwell was so confused. When did they kiss before?“I was twelve, and your mom invited us over for her birthday. We were hanging out in your room when you fell asleep,” Dawn began.“You didn’t,” Maxwell reacted, his heart swelling. “Fuck.”She pouted and admitted, “I did.”“That barely counts, but
