Once we pulled up to Coltons mansions I was flabbergasted. It looked more like a castle to me then a mansion.Sam held onto my hand as we made our way up the big steps to the front doors."I'll take care of him. Mother and father want you to go and find Colton so that you two can really seal the deal on being a couple." Amlian rolled his eyes as he helped me out of my coat."Alright I'll see you guys later." I walked off in front of them and grabbed a glass off a tray as a person walked by. It was champagne. Not my favorite but still I'd take anything right now.As I made my way to the ballroom I realized how many people I knew here. Many of these people was dad's friends with ordad had deals with them. A few friends of my mother would wave at me as I past and I offered them a kind smile.As I walked through the double doors into the ball room all eyes went to me. Not scary at all...I grabbed the railing with my other hand and slowly made my way down the stairs. My eyes went to Colton who
Colton took me up to his room with him and gave me a shirt to put on to sleep in. I used his bathroom to get changed.Once I had slipped out of the dress I put the long shirt on. It went to mid thigh on me because I was so small.I found makeup wipes in the draw which made me laugh a little. How many other women had been in this shirt...As I dried my face off I looked at myself. My whole face was red and puffy from tears. It was a scary sight but something told me I would see this a lot more now.I looked down at the ring and almost couldn't believe that it was true. Just a few weeks ago I was dreaming about the perfect summer. Now here I am with a ring on my finger.Walking out into the bedroom I saw Colton talking on the phone outside on the balcony. I didn't pay attention to him I just went to the bed. I grabbed a blanket and a pillow and put them on the couch for myself. I got under the blanket and rested my head on the pillow before closing my eyes.Colton talked on for a few more min
Later I got ready for this date with Colton. I wasn't really in the mood but I knew if I didn't he would find a way to get me to come.I put on a light pink dress with long sleeves that puffed out on the end. It was high on my neck which helped with the marks that Colton had left there.Once I was ready I made my way down to the living room where I heard people talking. I didn't mean to be snoopy but I couldn't help myself."That's her" Red asked."Yes." Colton replied. It was Colton and Red from what I could tell."Jesus Colton I thought you told me you were going to let her live her life for a little." Red said. Who were they talking about?"I did Red for years!" Conton replied."Ok I think we need to calm down a little here guys." That was a new voice I didn't know yet. Now I thought it was time to make my presence known."What are you doing?" Axle asked.I jumped out of my skin when Axle came up behind me.I turned to hit him but it just made him laugh."Adriana?" I knew that voice and I
The rest of the dinner was small talk here and there but I didn't really want to speak.When we finished up Colton payed and we made our way back to the car."You know I don't like when you kiss me." I huffed as we drove away from the restaurant."Really because I do." He smiled keeping his eyes on the road."And your mine so I can kiss you when ever I want to." he said."You see you are wrong! I'm my own person!" I turned to him getting mad for the second time tonight."I do what I want hangout with who I want!" I yelled."Oh this is about your boyfriend isn't it? Well he's fine now that he got the message." Colton said."YOU ARE SICK!" I yelled.At a stop light he turned to me and smiled "your cute when you get mad.""I swear if you hurt hi-" I was saying but he interupted saying "You'll what?"."God your so difficult!" I said."And you think you are any better?" he asked.I laughed "oh I forgot you think I'm a whore! Which is rich coming from the biggest man whore I bet there is!""WHAT!" He sc
"She's safer with me." "SHE ALMOST DIED WITH YOU!"I heard people screaming but I was to tired to open my eyes. I tried not to move as I listened."Colton honey can you tell us what happened?" A woman asked sounding a little bit like someone I knew."We we're pulling out of the restaurant and I saw someone following us. When I told Adriana is, when things took a turn. They started shooting at us. I got her to drive while I started shooting back. We thought we had gotten away from them but one hit us from behind and then another hit us from her side. She wasn't wearing a seatbelt so she flew to me and I held onto her till I couldn't." He sounded like he was upset right now. I couldn't understand why because he knows how I feel about him. He should hate me back."I got out to go to the other car after the one left. This car had turned over and caught on fire a little so I didn't know if anyone had gotten out. After I checked it I came back and someone was standing over her holding a gun
Later on everyone left me and I sat in my room searching through my tv for something to watch.A knock came and I called for who ever it was to come in.I was shocked to see two doctors with masks to walk in. But there was something different about these two doctors."You think they would left two grieving friends by!" Ashley cried as she pulled her mask off."Yeah I mean we had to sneak around to many people." Eric took his off and I covered my mouth."You came." I said softly looking at them both. I couldn't believe that they both did this for me."Hell yeah!" Ashley ran to me throwing her arms around me first. Then Eric did and he held onto me for a little longer."I'm going to kill him for hurting you!" He hissed pulling away. They both sat around me making me feel a lot better."He didn't hurt me Eric. This was an ambush." I looked down at my hands and Ash grabbed hold of them."What's wrong? You only get quiet when something is up." she said.She knew me to well and it was scary. Ashley h
The next couple weeks we spent getting the wedding ready and me resting. Things were in full swing for this. Mom and Mrs. Dalton were working together to prepare it.Me and Ashley were looking into getting dresses and called some of our close friends to be my bridesmaid. Of course Ash is my maid of honor.Tonight was the night of the wedding rehearsal. We had to go through the whole mass together and got some photos so that people knew it was real.Colton and I ran down the aisle together with smiles on our faces as the cameras went off.As soon as we got out of sight from people I pulled my hand away from Coltons and walked to my room that I'll be in tomorrow.I need to take some time on my own right now. Everything was happening so fast and there wasn't anything I could do about it."You coming! We're going out now!" Ash came in keeping the door open as she rushed in."I-I don't know." I said."Your going to turn down fun?" I turned to see Red standing there in a nice dress. Something I wa
I felt as though time was slowing down. My mother and the girls all came into my room this morning to wake me up and to start getting me ready.I don't remember really getting in this dress or the makeup being put on. I do remember me and Kegan taking a shot together because he said I looked like I could use one.How were brides supposed to feel? Because honestly I felt numb. I felt like my whole world was slowing down and there was nothing I could do to stop it. You know those parts in a movie where time seems to slow...that's the part I was in.Before I knew it I was staring at the white doors with my fathers arm locked with mine."You ready?" He asked as the guards came closer.All I could do was nod my head. The doors opened and out we went.I didn't look at anyone at first. I kept my eyes down at the floor watching where I was going.Then curiosity got the best of me. What was Colton doing?I got my answer right away when I looked up to him. His eyes were dead set on me. His face wasn't
9 months later"AHHH!" I screamed as the doctors pushed me down the hallway. This baby was coming and it was coming now.I looked up at my mother and Ashley who were both leaning over me helping the doctors push me down the hall."Mommy." I cried reaching out to her and she took hold of my hand."I know baby girl but think about how happy your going to be holding this baby in your arms!" I turned to Ashley."I have a bottle of wine for you in my bag." I smiled leaning back into my pillow a little."I couldn't get a hold of him!" Axle rushed down to the other side of us and I looked up at him. I grabbed his tie and pulled him real close to me."I am about to give birth to a damn baby. His baby to be exact. If the man isn't here in 20 minutes I will personally chop his and your dick off for NOT BEING HERE!" The doctor pulled my hand away from Axle and smiled up at him."She's just in a lot of pain." The doctor shrugged."No that's her on a normal day." Axle let out fast before rushing off to t
We rushed down the hall together both pushing it to get to the end of the hall. I slid down to the door and opened it to see Colton sitting up in his bed.As soon as he turned to me his eyes lit up. Before I could even stop myself I was jumping to him.He pulled me close kissing me face as tears went down my face.I pulled away and slapped his face hard feeling angry for a few reasons."You jumped in front of a gun!"I said and also I heard Axle stifle a laugh."Now I know I didn't just live through a shot for my baby to slap me as soon as I wake up." He said Turing to face me.I jumped to his lips fast wanting to feel them again. It felt like coming home and I loved it.He pulled back with a smile on his face "now that's more like it."."Good to see your better brother." Axle came up next to us putting his hand out to Colton."I trust you took care of everything?" he asked."Me an Quinn had it all under control." Axle replied."How is Red?" Colton asked."Wheeling down to see you." Axle said.We
"Adriana." My mother said as she sat down next to me. I hadn't left Coltons side in days. He has been asleep hooked up to a few Machines and hasn't moved. Everyone was concerned about me but I would leave now."I think you need to think about the baby right now." she said.I almost forgot about the fact that I was forced to take a pregnancy test once I got to the hospital to be checked out.It was really true though. I was pregnant and Colton was going to be a dad."I can't leave him mom." I said as tears fell from my face.She kissed the top of my head and pulled me closer."How's Eric." I asked turning to Axle who was keeping guard at all times now."Adriana." he stopped."Don't lie to me. He's not dead."I said."Baby I'm so sorry but he is." My mother said softly holding on tight to my hand."Get out." I said."Adriana." Axle said."BOTH OF YOU OUT!" My mother jumped up and Axle followed along taking my mother with him.Once they were both gone I climbed up into bed with Colton and put my hea
Adriana's POV.I laid there for a while just holding my stomach as I thought of being pregnant with Coltons child. It made tears of happiness fall from my eyes. I was so damn happy right now that it felt like nothing could hurt me.Then reality hits."Get up." he said."Go to hell." I repliedd.He reached down pulling me up to his chest and I spit in his face when he tried to grab my face.That definitely was the right move because the next thing I knew I was slapped across the face.My body dropped to the floor and he just laughed before pulling me by my hair to the bed.I kicked and screamed hoping that something would come out of this.Now I had a list of ways for this man to die."Do you even know what your husband did to me!" He hissed pushing me down to the bed as he took out cuffs."He killed my family right in front of me! He killed my little boy and my wife and didn't hesitate to do so!" he said.I screamed making my voice even more raw and I tried to kick but he held my feet down."FU
Adriana's POV.My body jumped awake and my eyes scanned the room that I was in.My hands were above my head with ropes holding me up. Looking down at my body I saw that my dress was all ripped up and dirty now."Sam!" I freaked remembering where I was and what I was doing."Don't worry baby doll. He's safe now. I had one of my men take him safely home to mommy and daddy."That voice. I knew it was him but I couldn't see him. Footsteps walked all around and it scared me more knowing that someone was in the dark with me."How do I know you are not lying." I hissed trying to pull on the rope but there was no use."Would I lie to you?" He sounded hurt but I knew it was just a game to him."What do you want." The walking stopped for a few minutes and I was trying to search for him in the dark.My head was grabbed and brought back into a shoulder and my eyes went right to his. The could eyes I remember from that day."You don't waist no time do you babygirl." I wanted to throw up from the nickname
As the car pulled up to a big house that was fenced in I started to think of what was going down."Let's go" the driver hissed as he came to open the door for me. He pulled me out and I let him pull me where he was going.We walked through the house where I saw a lot of fancy things and a few people who would give me glares here and there.We stopped at a door and driver man pushed it open looking back at me to tell me to go. I stepped my foot into the room and a light went on. There Sam sat on a chair with his little hands tied behind him and a cloth in his mouth."SAM!" I rushed over to him and fell to my knees pulling on the cloth that was on his mouth first." I-I'm so sorry." he muttered."Don't be I'm just happy your alright." I said."I want to go home." He cried and I almost wanted to."You are going to go home I promise." I nodded my head and I would do anything to keep that."Oh he can go home. You just got to stay." I turned around quickly and came face to face with a man who look
"I think that was the hottest thing you've ever done." Colton laughed spinning me around."Can you please stop talking about it." I cried feeling horrible now that I did it."Nope my wife is a badass." he said."Colton." I laughed as he pulled me in."And you actually called me your husband...I think I'm warming up to you." He smirked knowing that it was true. This man had me and he knew it to."Shut up." I tried to hide my smile as I leaned my head to his shoulder letting him move us all around. When the song finally came to an end , we made our way to the table that Axle and Red were at."Remind me never to piss you off." Axle laughed as I sat down next to him."Very impressive , if I do say so myself." Red added."God !did the whole place saw?" I asked."Well there were some older women who gave you the evil eye..." Axle laughed looking around at some of the women."God I need to hide for a little. I'll be back I'm running to the bathroom." I said putting my glass down."I'll go with you." R
"Don't you think this is a little much?" I asked as Red zipped my dress up for me."It's perfect and you look great!" Red said.I looked at myself in the mirror and didn't know how I felt about what I saw. It was a beautiful dress just thought it was to much for me."You look like a bad bitch." Red complemented.I laughed as Red said that making me look back at myself. "No one is going to mess with you now." Red said again."I'd love to believe that." I chuckled."Time to go!" Red took my hand and pulled me out the door to the top of the stairs to look down on the Dalton brothers who both looked up to us when they heard us come.Coltons eyes zoomed in on me as I saw a smile go to his face. It made butterflies go off in my stomach as a smile spread across my face.I made my way down the stairs and Colton took my hand pulling me to him."You look beautiful as always." He could say that over and over again and it still gets me every time."Damn Red." Axle said moving to take her hand as she came
"I want 24/7 eyes on her. She wants to go anywhere she's not to go with out a bodyguard or two." Colton said to everyone in his office as we at here the next morning. I sat there feeling shallow inside like someone had found out my deepest darkest secret."Sir we may have some information on the attack up the mountains." One of his people said as I looked out the window. I wasn't there. My body had been taking me to room room but I wasn't there."Great I'll take anything you all have. Dismissed." He called and everyone got up to go.I jumped when I felt a hand go to my shoulder Red looked down at me with a weak smile as she wrapped her arms around me. I pulled her closer feeling tears start to pick up."Colton." Quinn called looking up from his phone. Colton turned his head to him."We have him." The look on both their faces made me question who this him was."What's going on." I asked."We had a rat." Quinn said speaking first."He told some information to someone." Axle added when he saw
