After Kade left her flat, as Lily's phone rang, she noticed her mother's name flashing on the screen. With a smile, she answered, the warmth in her mother's voice instantly putting her at ease.

Seems like you're dating Kade Wilson. Quite the catch, isn't he? No one's managed to get to girlfriend status before."Lily's cheeks flushed at the mention of Kade's name. She couldn't h
Lily sat with Bella, cooing and playing with little Asher. The baby's giggles filled the room, providing a soothing backdrop to their conversation."Can you believe how quickly these last ten weeks have passed?" Lily mused, glancing at Asher, who was joyfully grabbing at a colorful toy.Bella smiled, her eyes softening as she watched Asher's playful antics. "I know, right? Feels like just yesterday we were at the hospital waiting for his arrival."Lily chuckled. "Remember when Reid was pacing back and forth like he was the one about to give birth?"Bella laughed, nodding. "Oh, he was a nervous wreck. But seeing him with Asher now, it's like he was born to be a dad."They shared a moment of silence, just enjoying the presence of each other's company, until Lily broke it with a more serious tone. "How have you been, really, Bella?"Bella sighed, her smile fading slightly. "Better, definitely. But some days are still hard, you know? I'm just glad the trial's over. The fact that Tony is b

His voice was as cold as ice, yet it sparked a flame within her. She knew it would be safe here, with him. Her hands trembled slightly as she untied the top part of her dress, revealing her full breasts. As she slid off her dress, remaining only in her black lace panties, she could only imagine what Kade had planned for her."I asked you to remove your clothes", he repeated, this time louder.Lily complied and slid off the small piece of lace.

The shrill sound of Lily's phone alarm cut through the morning silence, jolting her awake from an uneasy slumber on the couch. As consciousness slowly seeped in, she realized that Kade had not returned home overnight. Anxiety clutched at her chest, and her gaze darted around the living room as if expecting him to materialize.Checking her phone revealed no messages or missed calls.

Lily's laughter echoed in the room, a nervous response to what she believed was an awful joke. She looked at Kade, waiting for him to burst into laughter and say, "Gotcha!" But his expression remained stern, void of any amusement."This isn't funny, Kade," she finally managed to say, her laughter fading.Kade's gaze held firm as he spoke, "It's not a joke, Lily.

What changed?"Kade's tone remained detached as he said, "People change, Lily. Feelings change. It's better for both of
