Chapter 38
Ellie
I woke up Saturday morning to find my boyfriend sleeping on my couch in the main bedroom . For a man who was deeply troubled he was sleeping soundly which was a relief because he hadn't been sleeping well for the past couple of weeks. I was surprised to find him in my room ,and I had a feeling he asked his brother to track me down. As soon as I made my bed , made sure Max was warm , cleaned up and made him coffee in a travel mug , I received a text from Cleopatra asking me to come through to her house. I trust Cleo she has been through the same flames I have faced and she is very easy going .
When I pulled up to her house she let me in and I was welcomed by her two year old who was running towards me calling my name... She had told me that Angelo went shopping with Pia because Pio was just not budging when he asked him if he wanted to go to the shops . He simply stuck out his tongue and ran to Cleo
Song - Craig David - you don't miss the waterMaxI can't keep anything secret from Ell. She has been the only person who has always supported me regardless of how badly I messed up. Nicolai threatened me the day before yesterday. The money I owed was to also cover an incident that had happened with Garry. I should have known better than to go along with anything he suggested. We were both fired because we were found out . Maria was the chairman's daughter and she told her father everything and the truth about her abortion. It was a joint decision and Tim understood that. The club had a no doping policy ,and any match fixing in any way or form. Garry was being investigated for the latter and we both were found guilty for using gym candy . The Club let us both go and the DC banned us from anything to do with the sport or club, on condition that the story doesn't get out. We even signed an NDA and finned. That was why it wa
EllieI have always had the fear getting hurt and no one being there to help me get up or fix me up after I have fallen . I have a stubborn and impulsive streak, I have always had it from when I was a kid. I was once told not to get back on my BMX bicycle after I had fallen down repeatedly and never listened. The only way to learn is by messing up. I learned that when I was taught how to cook and bake by my mother ,I learned that when I sustained a injuries that resulted in scars from learning how to ride a bicycle after being used to a tricycle , I learned that when I failed sub -editing class in college in the first term when I submitted a hand written , not typed assignment that was torn right in front of the whole class after my laptop was stolen from me three days earlier when I got mugged and saved by Daniel.When he found out what had happened;he bought me a notebook as an early birthday present . He even wen
Chapter 41MaxWhen I tried to call Ellie , the call was sent to voicemail . I dropped everything grabbed the keys to Ellie's Jeep and took the rout that was sent to me via her location and when I tried to take a short cut I got stuck in traffic , in a panicked state of mind I called Salvatore , who knew how to fly a chopper and had one . He told me he that his father had taken it but he would drive to where Ellie was . While I was trying to get to Ellie ,a Ducati panigale sped through the traffic towards the direction of the location I was headed to . Salvatore was already on his way and he said he would meet me there. As I was approaching the location , the fire brigade , two ambulances sped passed me and when I heard a chopper I knew they were headed to where Ellie was . What was meant a fifteen minute drive took me twenty minuets . I spotted Salvatore's car and Daniel entering another chopper . I ran to the scen
Chapter 42EllieSeven days LaterYou never realize how bad something is until you wake up. I have never liked hospitals but they seem to like me . Even when I went to surprise Daniel with lunch or a late dinner I had to condition myself. He knew that I didn't like them , but he had shown appreciation for the effort I always took. Our relationship was and still is a good one . I knew he loved Amy and he knew that I loved Maxwell and I was still not over him . We pretended to be serious because we knew the truth and Salvatore his own brother thought that we were going to get married at some stage. We had a physical relationship and a friendship that was undeniably strong and special. I am forever blessed to have him as a friend .My body was slowly switching on and I was in pain. My abdomen hurt like hell and I felt groggy. I was breathing on my own which was a good sign ... I felt warm and all my senses were heigh
Chapter 43MaxKillian terrible timing . When he walked in ; I was asking Ell to marry me . He just walked in and did what he had to do. I now get what Eleanor meant about his two sides. As soon as he was done checking Ell he briefed us on everything that had happened with regards to losing our babies and the extent of her injuries. When Ell asked about Daniel , Killian looked visibly annoyed and to an extent I saw a flash of jealousy pass through his eyes. He had told her that he was okay and Amy was with him taking care of everything and that she can call him and ask him how he is because he was a mess when he was sent home . Killian told us that he would give us the release papers tomorrow morning , and that Ell needed to be kept for overnight observation. Killian clearly didn’t like my baby love , and for a guy who was accommodating and sweet towards me , he was being
Chapter 443 months laterEllieThe hardest part about making a decision that feels right in your gut and in your heart is telling the person who actually thought that they had a shot at a relationship with you that they are being benched again.I don't like being torn between two guys and not knowing how I feel . I have two amazing guys who want to be a permanent part of my world ,but I can't seem to make a choice and it's not only unfair to them , but it's also unfair to the women that want to be with them too . I don't want to compare them .Daniel is a Virgo and the only feelings I've had for him are that of a brother . What we did on the side was just an agreement . We have been friends for years and there were many reasons as to why I just didn't want to cross the friendship line . I've known for the longest of times that he was part of the Mafia and even though his father has always been nice to me and he isn't the monster
Chapter 45MaxIt has been a long year and with everything going on you'd think that it was only just yesterday that Ellie came back into my life and we were well on our way to getting married and having children. She hadn't talked to me since the day she asked me and Daniel to leave her alone .I know that she didn't plan on catching feelings for both of us but what we have is worth fighting for in more ways than one. We've been through hell and back and I'll be damned if I let a doctor come between us and what we have. I've been sending El gifts and she has a box full of them in her revamped apartment that just looks exquisite. She has amazing taste and I'm proud to call her my girlfriend ... Even though the past three months in have been hard to get through.Today marked a year since we lost Benjamin and a couple of weeks later our first child . I could only imagine what El was going through. I feel everything
Chapter 46Ellie Your body has a way of showing you flames if you aren't taking care of it properly . Over a period of time you put it through hell or sometimes heaven and hell come to your body all at once , and your body talks to you in ways you can and can't comprehend.Your body has a way of giving you a receipt of everything you've put it through . Only this time I didn't put it through anything . I've been keeping a healthy diet and I had been going for my check ups . I am pregnant with Max's baby , I've already established that, I don't have any feelings for Daniel except that of brotherly sister love . Maxwell owns me and I indirectly own him . We have binding runes and their powerful.I was going to freshen up and change into blue jeans and a yellow crew neck sweatshirt. I was feeling okay and since my floors were made if wood , I was walking around barefoot . Max also knee that I didn't like&n
