When Alexis was tasked with delivering a message from her boss to her former lover, she was reluctant. But when she met Ethan Marcus, she knew she was getting into trouble. Especially because she didn't expect to feel so instantly attracted to him. The big issue was that Amanda Shepherd, her boss, wanted him back! And Alexis really needed that job, as she dreamed of advancing in the company. Ethan Marcus is a laid-back guy who finds himself enchanted by the sweet and shy secretary of his clingy ex. Alexis Morgan is simply beautiful and sexy, despite hiding under clothes that don't do her justice. He needs to taste those perfect lips, to discover every curve hidden beneath her demure attire, but the girl is challenging. Not that he's going to give up because of that... "I knew," he murmured as he took a breath. "that your mouth had a delicious taste..." "Ethan..." she protested. She needed to pull away. "Shhhhhh!" he hushed her, holding her head in his hands. "Don't talk, don't think... just kiss me!"

She smiled and shook her head.Soon her little boy, dark, with beautiful and expressive blue eyes and curly hair, appeared. He was the exact copy of his father. Even the heterochromia in his left eye he had. He came with his arms hanging by his sides, dragging his feet and his head down. It was the picture of defeat. But it didn't move her. Every day was the same. And he looked gorgeous in his Buzz Light"year pajamas ..." Mom, why do I have to go to school today? – he retorted. " It's too early, it's raining, it's cold, and I'm still sleepy...“Noah! She grabbed him by the collar of his blouse, leaning down and showering him with kisses, from his rosy cheeks to his neck, where she knew he tickled. " Stop being lazy, boy!" Stop, mother !" – he scolded, squirming to get rid of her hands, while trying to hide his laughter and keep an angry face.With one last kiss on h
She nodded in agreement, seeking support in her husband's arms, she braced herself." Now. Come on, it's almost there, Alexis... " encouraged the doctor.Ethan was all agony. He hugged the woman's hard body, holding her tight and praying to heaven that it would all be over soon." Ready! – the doctor exclaimed. – A perfect baby… And with great lungs!And then they heard the little one's desperate cry. And Noah was in the world. Alexis collapsed onto the bed, smiling, her body completely given over to exhaustion now.Ethan, as soon as she was seated, went searching for his little treasure.When his eyes landed on that tiny creature that was now wrapped in a towel by the nurse, he could never put into words what he felt at that moment. It was a feeling that everything in life finally made sense. That everything was complete! And that his love for that tiny piece of people was so immense, so intense, that he would give his life for him, without even blinking.Without realizing it, he had
Alexis sighed and stroked her enormous, nearly nine"month"old belly. As usual, he couldn't help but smile. She could not even believe that she would soon meet her already very beloved son! And thank heavens for having the smoothest of pregnancies. A little nausea or other, but nothing that bothered her too much. Now that she was heading for the final stretch, she was feeling more uncomfortable, her legs more tired, her back that wouldn't let her sleep, or sit, or walk, but still, nothing could take the smile off her face. I was delighted! And seeing the happiness of her beautiful husband, every time he looked at her or caressed her belly and talked to her little one... She asked herself if she deserved so many blessings!Ethan insisted, as did Godmother Norah, that she stay home and rest, but she just couldn't sit still. Like now, when they finished an arrangement that would be delivered the next day, and they were already closing the office. When she felt that her body was asking for
But I knew something was missing. Even though her adoring husband didn't push her, it was no secret how much he wanted a baby. Alexis also avoided talking about this subject, as he was still too afraid to go through that situation again. But every time she saw how much love he treated his little godson, son of Eric and Eileen, the more her heart sank.So, a few weeks ago, without telling him, she had stopped taking the contraceptive… And then came the main gift she planned to give him.Grasping the handle, Alexis bit her lip and slowly opened the door.Ethan looked up at her as she walked in and leaned against the closed door, hands deep in his coat pockets. With that so beautiful, sensual and beloved sexy smile in the corner of his lips, he examined her completely and slowly:"Hmm... Especially... And those red shoes..." His pretty white teeth showed as he widened his smile. "Can I take my clothes off now?"Alexis bit her lip again, throwing her head back, in a short sensual laugh, s
" Excellent! " and headed for the stairs. "Because all I want is to take care of you!" You must be exhausted! " already in the bedroom, he placed it carefully on the sheets. "You've had a surgical procedure, you shouldn't be walking around!" He feigned an angry expression as he freed her from her shoes.Alexis laughed and stretched out her arms, beckoning him with her hands:" It's because I needed to see you today!Ethan also quickly got rid of his shoes and went to her side:" All you had to do was call me, and I'd be back on my own axis, to you!They stared at each other for a long moment, as if memorizing each other's faces. Arms wrapped around each other, bodies very close together. As if they were one." I love you! Alexis whispered, lost in his blue eyes. "And I would give anything to be able to make love to you…" She nibbled lightly on his lip.Ethan closed his eyes, holding a sigh in his chest.“What's a few weeks? " he himself seemed not to feel firmness in his words. "And t
'It wasn't your fault, Alexis!' Ethan stated, exasperated to see her in that state, reaching for his hand. “It was natural. The doctor told me..."But I rejected him one day!" " she interrupted him, excited, fleeing contact. "And God punished me by taking him away from me!" And I'm sorry if I let you down... " he added in a thin voice, lowering his head."You didn't let me down!" He softened, this time clasping her hands in his."But you wanted this baby so badly!" She looked at him, dejected."Yes, but that wasn't in your hands!"Alexis raised her teary eyes to him. They looked desperate, anxious. And then the words came out:"Ethan, I love you!" So much! His voice was serious. " You have become the reason for my life! But even feeling this way and feeling this way,” she subtly released her hand from his. "I can't impose myself on you...Wow! What was going on there? Alexis Morgan had just confessed that she loved him? Ethan was stunned for a moment. He couldn't believe his ears!But
Ethan turned as Norah returned to the living room. But even without the other saying anything, she knew the answer and sighed."You know her, don't you, my friend?" " lamented the brunette."How is she, Norah?"“In a deplorable state, Ethan! Of all the blows she's taken in the last few days, I believe this was by far the biggest blow.Ethan collapsed on the couch:"She was so happy lately!" This is all very unfair! he whispered, anguished. "I need to see her!"“Better not, Ethan!“Damn it, it's my wife, Norah! I have to be by her side now!"I don't think she wants you to see her the way she is, Ethan!" She is really devastated. Give her a break, buddy!He looked at Norah, his blue eyes even more intense. Then he let his shoulders tense and rested his head in his hands."I've never felt so helpless before!" I do not know what to do...The brunette sat next to him, caressing his shoulder:"You'll come out of this situation stronger, Ethan!"" It will be? I don't really believe in it...
“She… how did she react, Norah?”“You're in shock, Ethan. She just didn't react. It went into automatic mode after I found out what happened. He let them do what they wanted, no questions asked. And I don't know if that's a good thing, Ethan!" Can I see her? He indicated the door."He's asleep, but I am not convinced that's a problem."He put his hand on the doorknob, but stopped himself, taking several deep breaths. Then he straightened up and turned the piece of metal, very slowly."Norah, can you call the doctor, please?" – the brunette asked softly. "I'd like to speak with him."" Yes, of course…Ethan walked in and closed the door, carefully so as not to make any noise. The room was in shadow. Everything very silent. But he could see Alexis's silhouette, huddled in the middle of the white sheets. She looked so small in that bed!What the hell! Your Alexis… your baby! He covered his mouth and nose to stifle an agonized scream. It would have to be strong! He repeated to himself. F
" The baby? Ethan's question was asked very quietly, as if he already knew and didn't want to hear the answer.The woman shook her head slightly in the negative." Oh God! he gasped, as if he'd taken a powerful blow to the stomach.Then he would bend over, bringing his hands above his knees, as if gasping for air.“I'm so sorry, Ethan! " Norah came to hug him, no longer holding back her tears." My God! " he was too agitated to be able to stay in a hug, so he accepted the touch quickly and pulled away, studying his friend's features. " And Alexis? She is fine?“He's sleeping now. They had to do a curettage, I think that's the name. She's sedated now.“She… how did she react, Norah?”“You're in shock, Ethan. She just didn't react. It went into automatic mode after I found out what happened. He let them do what they wanted, no questions asked. And I don't know if that's a good thing, Ethan!" Can I see her? He indicated the door."He's asleep, but I am not convinced that's a problem."H
"I am not paid for it! "replied Alexis, examining the address in his hand and staring at the building before her.She was a secretary at Shepherd and Harry’s Landscaping. Office! Amanda Shepherd had no authority over her to ask her to “negotiate” with her former lover!Well, she could have told that to her boss at the company. Now, standing before the construction of two floors, of apparent bricks, I thought it was too late to complain.With an exasperated sigh, he smoothed his beige suit, which matched the pants and his white silk tank top. An outfit that made her look like an old woman and not the 26-year-old woman she was, as your friend Norah used to say.She felt comfortable in her costume. It seemed more professional, more serious. Before pushing the door leading to the bar, she sighed again. Throwing the behaved ponytail over her shoulder, she came in.By the time, the environment was practically empty. Few people in the background, next to a pool table. And on the counter, thr...
