Axel delivered uninterrupted kicks. He went at it so strongly that Lucas scrambled to find something better to protect him. With a swift motion, he grabbed a chair, wielding it as both a shield and weapon. Lucas fought but with hesitation. He didn't intend to harm Axel, but he also needed to protect himself. Papers scattered, and chairs toppled as the room transformed into an impromptu battleground. Lucas groaned and said, "Axel, listen to me! Whatever is going on, you have it all wrong!" Lucas swung his body from side to side to evade Axel's punches. At one point, he managed to grab his arm, gripping it with both hands. He said, "I'm your friend, Axel! I would not kill you!" "Liar! You sent men to have me killed!" Axel snapped. He rotated his arm, forcing Lucas to free it, and Axel threw in a decisive kick! Lucas found himself forced backward until his back hit the wall of the conference room. Before he could regain a fighting stance, Axel swiftly grabbed the office extension

Lucas was holding Lily like he was afraid of losing her. He was kneeling in front of her while she waited on the bed. He had his arms wrapped around her, and it felt like his hold strengthened in each second that passed. "Lucas," Lily repeated. Her voice trembled in suspense. "I opened the door so you could tell me the truth. I want the truth, Lucas. I can't bear it any longer with what I have heard. The Mullins also said Vice President Wallace was involved with the Alpha Vipers. So what is it really? What was your involvement with the Alpha Vipers?" "And why!" Lily's voice strengthened as she said, "Why get involved with them in the first place?" "Lily, I -" Lucas stared into Lily's blue eyes. He said, "I did what I had to do to ensure your safety." "What?" Lily's heart sprinted. Fear crept into her soul, and her head imagined all the possibilities of what Lucas meant. She said in frustration, "What do you mean, Lucas? Tell me? Please, I have to know!' "About ten years ago." L

"How long have you been awake?" Lucas inquired upon observing Lily lying on her back, lost in thought. Her eyes were swollen, and the corners of her eyes were moist. 'She cried again,' he assumed. Lily blinked. She didn't face him. Instead, she remained staring at the ceiling, asking, "Lucas, I want to know more." Rather than responding, Lucas gently held her cheek and drew her closer. He kissed her face and inhaled her scent. He genuinely didn't want her to feel any more guilt about his past choices, but it was also in Lily's nature to probe. He said in a hushed tone, "What - what do you want to know?" "Is Axel part of the Alpha Vipers?" Lily asked. "And so is Ryan?" 'Oh, no,' Lucas thought. 'She would never stop bothering Ryan after this.' "Lucas?" She asked again. Seeing her frown, Lucas acknowledged, saying, "Yes." He told her about Axel and how the Alpha Vipers leaders had planned to eliminate him after accomplishing his mission. He explained, "The organization had mis

After Lucas left the room, Lily refreshed her mind as to what she knew about the Alpha Vipers. She had files about them on her laptop when the organization ceased operation. Lily read parts of the company's official statement: [Dear Clients and Partners, With regret, we write to inform you of the closure of Alpha Vipers, effective November 20XX. Over the years, we have valued your partnership and trust in our services. However, due to discontinued support from our investors, we find it necessary to cease operations...] Lily put two and two together. Lucas had brought down the leaders of the Alpha Vipers, so it was natural for the organization to lose its backbone. She made a phone call to her contact with the FBI. When the person on the other line picked up, she requested, "I want all information about Bane Emerson, his prison, and the charges against him. Also, I know we have stopped looking into the Alpha Vipers, but can you see if you have named the investors and all the le

"The Elder Marshall was convicted and locked up. He died five years ago, killed by inmates," Lucas said. "Everyone in prison hated him. I got my justice through other people, so calm down." Lily did not have her phone with her. She grabbed Lucas' phone and asked, "What's your passcode?" Lucas groaned. He replied, "Your birthday and 143." "You are crazy," Lily muttered. She was having an emotional moment, yet his mobile passcode threw her off track for a second. Lucas only chuckled as Lily unlocked his phone. She asked, "What's his name? Marshall -" "Marshall Edmond, and the cult name is Family Above," Lucas replied. Lily read the details online. It was horrific! She thought, even if this man had not harmed Lucas, she might also kick his balls and punch him in the gut! "This is terrible," Lily commented. "I know, but he already got what he deserved," Lucas said. "He might even be burning in eternal flame." Lily was still angry, imagining Lucas mending his wound at the foot o

While Lucas chuckled, Lily's mouth fell on the floor. Lily glared at Lucas, but as they walked out of the villa, he said, "He already had sex education in school. You know that right." "I know, but -" "If you put malice into it, the more he'll be curious," Lucas suggested. "Better think of it as if it's nothing - that's part of human nature because it really is. We just need to set boundaries." Lily sighed. She said, "Fine." They were heading out. Lily said there was still time. She made a few phone calls while Lucas changed into casual clothes. Lily was also dressed nicely that night. She was in white instead of her usual brown or black leather jacket. She was still sporty but with a touch of elegance. Before the driver could bring the car up front, Lily took out a black tie from her jacket pocket. She said to Lucas, "Close your eyes." Lucas leaned back. He reacted, "What the hell is going on?" Rolling her eyes, Lily replied, "It's a surprise. Come on." Because she was put

The heat of the moment continued in the car. Lily and Lucas were still at it, making out intensely. They did not care about the driver, but thankfully, the poor guy's eyes were on the road. With Lucas kissing her hungrily, Lily felt like her lips had swollen. The driver must have felt the urgency of the situation that he sped the moment they entered the private community that belonged to Lucas and his siblings. As soon as they arrived at the mansion, the car skidded to a stop. Lucas and Lily hurriedly got out of the vehicle. Lily ran up to the door first. She opened the door just in time for Lucas to catch up with her. He immediately carried her weight, lifting her so her legs automatically wrapped around his waist. Lucas forced Lily against the wall. He pushed his entire body onto her frame, kissing her wildly while he ground against her. When Lucas firmly tugged on her jacket, Lily pulled away and complained, "No, no. This is Versache."

"We will have to figure out a way to get to the hotel safely, to securely travel to the city's municipal office, to drive to the site location, then visit the hospital to see the affected workers, and go back, possibly without being detected," Lily said while studying a map of Koplin City with Gunner. A hiss left Lily's lips. She said, "This is difficult." "That is so many trips for someone being targeted," Gunner remarked. "We need as much help as we can get," Lily declared. "That's why I have coordinated with the military and local authorities, but we can't always rely on them. We have to have our own men." "I have already instructed our people from the Black Hawk to secure the hotel first," Gunner said. "I have asked for twenty contractors." Lily nodded. She said, "That should be enough. I will bring six of Lucas' existing bodyguards." While Lily and Gunner were planning the visit to Koplin City, Ryan and Lucas met in the study. "Maybe I should go with you. You will leave

Gone Too Long, The CEO Becomes A World-Class Doting Husband Author's Announcement (March 2, 2024)
Dear Beloved Readers, Thank you for supporting me with Lucas and Lily's story. I also appreciate the care and patience you have shown me over the past two weeks. I have a few announcements. So, here it goes. Author's Health. After what happened to my eyes, I realized that I must give time for myself. And it is not just my eyes; I have gained weight. Lol. I blamed it on the holidays, but it's already March. In line with this, I will take it a little slow in my next book, enough for my eyes to rest so they won't get strained from all the screen time. I know you are all used to me delivering two chapters daily on most days, but in the next book, I will probably publish an average of nine to ten chapters per week. I need this badly, so I am asking for your understanding. Note that you can always read at the end of the week or after the book is completed. What book will I publish next? I know you love the Wrights and the Thompsons, but I have been advised to write outside the s

Four years passed. ~"You might have a mom, she might be the bombBut ain't nobody got a mom like mineHer love's 'til the end, she's my best friendAin't nobody got a mom like mine" ~ Dancing to the tune of "Mom" by Meghan Trainor, the children danced in simple steps to appreciate their mommies on Mother's Day. This was a gathering that Amara had organized for the mothers in their family and close friends. The seven-year-olds, Autumn and Maeve, and the four-year-old Ivaan were forming hearts with their fingers, and together with Shauna's and Anna's daughters, they found partners to sway along to the music. Shauna's daughter, Mareese, was nearly seven, while her son, Shawn, was three. While Mareese had Shauna's looks, Shawn was a definite copy of his dad. Shawn was less coordinated with the other kids dancing, and that was because he thought dancing was only for girls. Still, Shauna appreciated her son's efforts. Anna's daughter was dancing with the group too. Ryan and Anna nam

Over three months passed. "Ready for our first round?" Aiden asked with narrowed eyes. "Ready!" Autumn and Maeve said at the same time. His sisters were in the playroom with him, smiling from ear to ear. Earlier, Autumn and Maeve were unhappy because they missed Lucas and Lily. Their mother had been confined for four days since she had another C-section to deliver their baby brother. To cheer them up, Aiden went the extra mile and created a fun activity for them on a Friday afternoon. Together with the caregivers, Aiden cut out large and various shapes in different colors. The mechanics of the game was simple. Aiden would dictate the shape and color, and they would step on it. The highest number of correct answers would be awarded a prize. "Blue star!" Aiden said, and his sisters scrambled to find a blue star and step on it. "Next, an orange circle!" Aiden added. "Green square! Red triangle!" They did not necessarily get all of them. Like how Autumn thought orange was re

Six months passed. Ryan and Anna's wedding was held at The Green Pine Restaurant and Lodge. Around the venue, candles flickered, and soft fabrics moved in the mountain wind, making everything feel magical. The wedding happened under the moonlit sky, and the hills stood in the background, watching as two people joined their lives together. As the celebration extended, the couple had a romantic dance at the end, swaying to the tune of "Lover" by Taylor Swift. Ryan wore a black suit, while Anna wore a mermaid wedding dress. ~ "Can I go where you go?Can we always be this close forever and ever?And ah, take me out, and take me home (forever and ever)You're my, my, my, myLover?" ~ Ryan had a big smile on his face, his eyes glued to his now wife while Anna looked at her husband adoringly, her hands wrapped around his neck. Anna's eyes were gleaming, her red hair adorned with gems tied into a beautiful bun behind her head. Halfway through the song, Anna and Ryan looked around. An

Over one year passed. "Ladies and gentlemen, distinguished guests, and nature enthusiasts," Axel said while addressing everyone in the crowd. He was standing before a podium and on a makeshift stage. Surrounding him stretched a vast expanse of land adorned with lush green grass, while the venue for the press conference was sheltered by the shade of trees and pines. "A warm welcome to all of you on this glorious day as we gather to celebrate the grand opening of The Green Pine Restaurant and Lodge." Axel smiled as he stared into the eyes of those watching him. He resumed, "Today is a testament to the harmonious blend of nature, hospitality, and my family's love for farming." "This farm resort is a dream realized - a way for us to bring you the countryside and do what we love to do as a family. We, the Greens, love to farm," Axel proudly announced. "Just an hour away from the Rose Hills proper, you can escape the hustle and bustle of city life and immerse yourself in the beauty of

"My feet are killing me," Anna complained after she, Lily, and Shauna went shopping for clothes for the past four hours on a Saturday afternoon. Shauna bought maternity clothes, while Lily and Anna bought clothes for themselves. They all rested on one of the benches inside the mall. Anna and Shauna took both ends of the bench while Lily sat in the middle. Once settled, Lily asked, "Is the baby coming out yet?" The idea of going to the mall was Shauna's. She was already forty weeks pregnant, but she had no signs of going into labor. She thought that strolling around would help. Shauna rested her shopping bags on the floor. She touched her belly and said, "No, I don't feel anything." Suddenly, Anna screamed, "Ouch! Luke! What the -" "Anna, come back with me!" Out of nowhere, Luke appeared, and he grabbed Anna's wrist. Luke did not appear well. His hair was disheveled, and he had dark bags under his eyes. He begged, "Anna, please forgive me." "Luke, what are you doing? Didn't R

### MARCUS' FLASHBACK ### "Hey, Guys! Can I join you?" Kamila said while taking the vacant seat next to Lace. "Looks like our parents have made a huddle of their own." "Of course. They always do that," Lace replied. "We should have a gathering of our own." "I'll go to join Samuel and the others," Amara said, referring to their uncle Sean's second son. "Go," Marcus said. It was always like this during gatherings; they split into different groups. "Let's drink," Kamila proposed with a mischievous smile. Marcus laughed. He looked back, searching for Keith, and when he found Kamila's father having a drink with Evan and their other uncles, he said, "So, that's why you came here." "Yeah, good luck getting a drink when I am near Dad," Kamila remarked, and she laughed. "He does let me drink, but not too much." "I think not too much is okay," Marcus commented, but either way, he asked a food server for another bottle of wine. He winked at Kamila and assured her, "Don't worry, I'll

Louise was celebrating inside. Finally, for the first time, Keith Henderson would see that Kamila wasn't the perfect daughter he had assumed her to be. Since the Hendersons had granted her a scholarship, Louise had seen how easy Kamila's life had always been. She realized that life was so unfair. Here was Kamila, tall and beautiful with long and shiny black hair. She was often the center of attention during their college years, leaving Louise in the backseat. In the past, Louise earnestly appreciated Kamila, but the more she was exposed to how the Hendersons lived, the more she coveted Kamila's life. Louise would have had a chance to live that luxury if only she had been chosen for the management trainee position for Prima MedCare. The problem was that Kamila was in the way of her dreams. It was obvious that Keith Henderson, being the CEO of the insurance company, would prefer to bring in his daughter rather than an outsider. Knowing this, Louise had been trying to find a way t
