2024-10-29 19:42:56Just a few steps and I'd be free, the thought had sounded simple enough. The door was supposed to be my passage to safety, outside should have lead to instant freedom. I just needed to make it a few more steps. God how I wish it would have turned out to be that easy.
David and I both stopped in our tracks when the door ahead of us slung open with yet more men advancing on us. I felt cornered we had men ahead of us, men coming from behind and only a handful of men were actually with us. With a single glance at David, he nodded at me letting me know he understood. We were fighting our way out of this and it wouldn't be pretty, it wouldn't be easy.
As I loaded a new clip into my gun I prayed to whatever God was stupid enough to ever agree to watch over me and began aiming as I made my way forward. My adrenaline was pumping and even the wound to my shoulder was forgotten at the moment. Each step forward I took seemed to be in slow motion and even though I wanted to protect

His Possession Apologies
Taylor POVEven before I opened my eyes I felt that something was different. When my eyes did open I looked out the window seeing how dark it had gotten and let out a sigh, I should have known better than to lay down so late for a nap. Rolling over I froze seeing Lucas sitting in a chair beside the bed. He wasn't looking at me. He sat leaned forward with his head in his hands, and his elbows resting on his knees. Lucas's hair was wet telling of an earlier shower.I sat up slowly confused, why hadn't he woken me? Where had he been? The fact that Lucas didn't even look up as I moved worried me. "Lucas," I said slowly.It was as if he had just noticed I was in the room with him. As his face lifted I let out a gasp jumping out of bed falling down to my knees. Lucas reached out grabbing for me thinking I had fallen and not dropped on purpose. Lifting a hand to his face I frowned as he winced at my touch. "Lucas are you ok?”He nodded moving his face away
His Possession Back Home
Lucas returned to our room with my drink and food in hand. Taking it from him I made myself comfortable in the bed taking a sip of my drink before I sat it down opening my omelet. I didn’t know how best to begin my questions to Lucas so I just flat out asked, “so what does all of this mean?”Turning his head to look down at me, Lucas sat beside me. “You don’t have to worry.”Shaking my head I sat my fork down, “so us going missing won’t alarm anyone? You won’t have people still looking for you? You’re not going to go back after them for what happened with David?”Lucas cut his eyes at me and for a second I thought he would straight shut down and not answer but soon he sighed. “If anyone asks we went out of town to relax. With you being pregnant it wouldn’t be unheard of. I’m not worried about being retaliated against and you don’t need to worry about what my next movie will
His Possession Changes
Lucas had done better than good on getting us in to see the houses we had looked at online. Even now we were on our way to look at our top picks. Each house was different in its own aspect. There had been others that had been shot down because one of us liked things that the other one didn’t so I hoped we would be able to find something perfect for our growing family.The first house we pulled up to caught my breath instantly. It was more secluded than any place I thought we’d ever find in the outskirts of New York. The house wasn’t near as big as Lucas’s current house. In fact, only one of the houses we had picked to look at today was as big as the current one.As we parked I followed closely to Lucas as he led us to meet with the realtor. The realtor who simply introduced herself as Diana was probably in her late forties or early fifties. She started spouting off facts about the 3 bedrooms 3 bathroom house. The house had all the extras, balcon
His Possession Ending to a Perfect Day
Lucas helped me clean the kitchen in a rush to hurry and get upstairs but ended up being called out on business. I hadn’t been happy but I didn’t argue about it either. It wasn’t worth it. Besides I got to go take a bath in peace, put on a cute nightgown despite being pregnant, and now I was sitting up in the bed admiring my ring. Lucas had done a fantastic job of picking it out. It was amazing and the way it shimmered in the light was mesmerizing. I never thought I'd ever own anything like it.“It’s not going anywhere you know,” I looked up rolling my eyes at Lucas smirking at me from the doorway.“Whatever,” I mumbled.Lucas laughed walking closer to the bed. "You miss me, baby,” he asked as he sat down on the edge of the bed.Shrugging I tried my best to look uninterested, “I don’t know it was kind of quiet without you here. I got to enjoy that huge ass tub all by myself with
His Possession Rejection
It had been a month since we moved into our new house, a month since Lucas proposed, and now here I was knocking on my parent’s door. Lucas had told me he would come with me, he had insisted it was only right. Even with him being with me I was nervous. Normally I would just walk in but things weren’t the same anymore. They hadn’t accepted Lucas and now that Cody was “missing” things wouldn’t be any better.Mom came to the door and when she opened it her mouth fell open. “Taylor...” her eyes moved straight to my now 6 months along stomach then up past me to Lucas. I had no idea if she’d even known I was pregnant. I could only assume Cody had told her.“Can we come in mom? Lucas and I would like to talk to you and dad.” Even as I said the words mom looked confused looking once again up at Lucas.Glancing back at me her face paled, “is it, Cody? Had he called you, is he ok?”My sto
His Possession Mine
As I looked at my reflection in the mirror I felt anything but excited and happy. Today was my wedding day and I felt alone. I hadn’t seen Lucas since last night and now here I was dressed in my beautiful wedding gown alone waiting for our ceremony to begin. Sure I had my stylist do my hair and makeup and she talked to me the entire time but it wasn’t like I had my family here. I had reached out to my aunts and cousins but they had all made up some excuse as to why they couldn’t come. I’m sure they didn’t want to make my mom or Dad mad but I still had hoped someone would be able to make it.Rubbing my belly I sighed, I would have preferred to have waited till after the baby was born to get married but Lucas was dead set on us being married before Chloe arrived. Hearing a knock on the door I jumped, we still had almost 20 minutes before the ceremony started and I was already completely dressed. Maybe it was the wedding planner checking to make sur
His Possession Getaway
Looking out of the limousine window I wondered where in the world Lucas was taking us. I couldn’t believe that I was now Mrs. Lucas Blake. We only stuck around after the ceremony long enough to take pictures. David, Jack, and Taliah had been the only ones allowed to visit with us before we left.Ever since David had been shot something had been off about him. Today however was a total change. He gave Lucas a hard time about being tied down and joked with me about how it wasn’t too late to change my mind.Feeling Lucas grab my hand I looked over at him and smiled. “So are you going to tell me where we are going now?”Lucas shrugged, “somewhere off the beaten path. Nowhere as nice as I would want to take you but I didn’t want to risk flying with you so far along.”I rolled my eyes, “I can fly, you act like I’m due tomorrow.” Laughing I squeezed his hand, “I’m sure it will be amazing.&rd
His Possession Ride or Die
As we left the cottage I couldn’t help but be sad. I loved our new house but there was just something about the small cottage that just seemed...I don’t know cozy. It was like me and Lucas actually got to know each other better. We bonded and not just in sex. We had laid in the bed doing nothing but talking one night. He had told me things I had never known about him, things that opened my eyes as to why Lucas Blake was Lucas Blake.As much as I wanted to hide in our cottage Lucas had things to deal with back in the city. The police had been to the nightclub looking for him and although they hadn’t called he knew from experience it was better to go to them first. His carefree demeanor had already changed, it changed the minute we pulled out of the cottage’s driveway.I still had no idea what being his wife would entail. He had already set up appointments to add me to several of his bank accounts and holdings. I had told him he didn’t have

His Possession Prized Possesions
It had been a month since Chloe came into our lives. Lucas had done good on his promise and had been spending a majority of time home with us. He would still make an appearance once a week at the club. David was helping out with the Dom situation so Lucas had been working a lot from home.I couldn’t ask for Chloe to be a better baby, she hardly ever cried and if she did she was just letting you know a she was hungry, or because she was wet. She even slept for a good stretch of time at night. That little girl had her daddy wrapped around her tiny little fingers. I loved watching him with her. His whole demeanor changed when he held her.Things were still the same with my parents. I had given up on them ever coming around. I knew they blamed Lucas for Cody’s disappearance. Even if I straight up confessed to murdering Cody they would turn it around on him. I wished things could have been different. I wished that mom and dad would be understanding for the sake
His Possession Here She Is
Taylor POVOpening my eyes I realized I must have fallen asleep in the recliner. Looking at my watch I saw it was just after midnight. Going to get up I felt horrible and debated on how bad I really needed to pee. Lucas was at the club and wouldn’t be home till sometime early in the morning. Closing my eyes I grabbed onto the arms of the chair to help host me up when I felt a sharp contraction hit. Oh shit I thought, I was only 36 weeks and at my appointment earlier in the week I wasn’t even dilated.Shaking my head I forced myself up thinking maybe I was tripping, maybe it was something I ate. Getting up I wobbled my way to the bathroom flipping on the lights before I quickly did my business and washed my hands. Heading back to the living room I grabbed my phone before going upstairs to the baby’s room to make sure the diaper bag and overnight bag wasn't still on the floor. I had told Lucas to put them in the trunk of his car and I guess he finally l
His Possession Late Night Thoughts
Lucas POVClosing my eyes I leaned back in my chair trying to drown my thoughts with scotch. I felt the weight of the world on my shoulders and no matter how much I shoved back at it, it just came down harder. I had a huge weakness now, a weakness that my enemies were determined to try and use against me. Taylor, Taylor and our baby to be exact.I knew she was probably upstairs still semi mad at me but I couldn’t focus on that right now. I was determined to strike back at every person who threatened us. To show them I hadn’t grown soft. If anything I had become more cold hearted. Taylor had no idea what I was up to when I left her, she had no clue the things I had done the last couple of months. She had no idea that even now I had the cop that snuck into our house tied up in one of my safe houses.Sighing I took a sip of my drink wishing David would hurry up and call. I had a clean up crew out tonight taking care of some loose ends. Normally I would
His Possession Forgiven
I sat with my arms crossed glaring at Lucas. He had found out pretty quickly that the two guys from earlier had indeed been cops but that one just happened to be a dirty cop. I had sat and listened as he spat orders out about bringing this guy in but not killing him he wanted answers. Well damn it I wanted answers too. I was more than a little put out at him and he didn’t seem to be noticing.It seemed like hours later before our house was silent again. The house had been bugged, the alarm system had been hacked, everything brought back my question of how. How had Lucas let this happen? He had enemies and right now I wasn’t sure if I could even trust his men. Everyone was a suspect in my eyes.“You hungry?” Lucas asked looking up from his phone. I shrugged which brought an automatic sigh from him, “Taylor baby you need to eat. I can go get something, or we can go out.”I rolled my eyes at him, “you can do what you want b
His Possession Why Does This Keep Hapening
Sitting at the bar I looked up angrily at the clock on the stove. It was after 10 and I had yet to hear a word back from Lucas. Both my calls and my text remained unanswered. Part of me feared he had gone missing again but the other half of me knew he was still dealing with whoever had rushed him out of the house.I had finally gotten hungry enough to cook but was lazy so I settled for a grilled cheese sandwich. Taking a bite I dropped it back down aggravated at the whole situation. Was this what my life would become, a lot of nights left wondering where he was or what he was doing? I knew I couldn’t really complain, I knew who he was, I knew what he was. Hell, I willingly stepped into this new lifestyle.Even though I had known better I tried to call my Mom, the phone went straight to voicemail. I left a brief message telling her I heard Cody was still missing and if she needed anything to call. Part of me knew she wouldn’t but at least I had tried. I got
His Possession Just a Few Questions
I sat on the edge of the bed watching an angry Lucas slide into a fresh white button-up shirt. We had just made it in the doors when David called him back telling him there had been some “changes.” I didn’t know what the change were but I knew it had pissed him the hell off. Any and all plans of messing around before he left went out the window.Looking up at him I sighed, “how long do you think you’ll be gone?”Lucas shrugged not answering me. Frowning up at him I shook my head, “why can’t this meeting wait? We just got home.”Turning to look at me Lucas sighed, “Taylor you know I don’t want to go but this is important. I have to get things set up so I can lay low when Chloe gets here for a few months without things falling all apart.I rolled my eyes, “I thought that’s what David is for.”Lucas shot me a look, “Taylor.”I knew I was aggravating
