Letting go Chapter 21
Christian I have to admit watching Molly put Amy back in her place was fucking funny, she wiped the floor with her and didn't back down regardless of what she said. I also hate to admit that seeing Molly like that was fucking hot and a major turn-on. I've been nothing but an ass to her since she arrived here but still, she had my back; more importantly, she had my kid's back, and I can't forget that. Fuck she's even following Amy off the farm to make sure she leaves and already I know this is going to mess with my head even more. "That was fucking hot!" Jack suddenly blurts out while all my brothers quickly agree including Tom. "Molly has the biggest heart I know but she's also a tiger when she needs to be and she doesn't take kindly to anyone hurting her friends or someone she loves." "So let me get this straight... You have been nothing but a dick to her since she arrived and yet she still had your back just now?" Jack looks straight at me as he asks me the one question that I
Letting go Chapter 22
Christian It's almost 6 and I will say that between the four of us, we have got every single room sparkling, and I've even managed a quick shower and change of clothes. Jack and Tom are bathing the kids as we speak and Molly excused herself and went upstairs to give me privacy which I appreciated. A knock on the door brings me back to the present and even though I know that everything will be fine and that there's no reason as to why the kids can't stay here I'm still so fucking nervous and more than anything I realize that I'm terrified that they will take Katie away from me and there won't be a dam thing that I can do about it. I open the door with a smile on my face but inside my heart is pounding. "Good evening Mrs. Peterson." "Good evening Mr. Bowen, please call me Sally." She has a warm smile and I'm hoping that's a good sign. "Please come in, Sally." "Thank you, Mr. Bowen." She wipes her feet on the rug at the front door before closing the door behind her and instantl
Letting go Chapter 23
Christian I open the door to find Molly thrashing about on her bed. She's wrapped in the bed sheets but sweating like fuck. "Molly," I call out to her but she doesn't respond. I walk further into her room and towards her bed while she goes between mumbling and calling out. She's clearly having a nightmare as she's calling out to Archie begging him not to leave her and begging him to wake up. She sounds heartbroken and it gives me a feeling that I dont like. I may not like Molly but she's clearly having one awful dream and I can't just leave her like this. I wasn't raised to act like that, and I don't need to behave that way. No matter what I think or feel about her she's clearly in distress and I have to help her if I can. "Molly." I call out to her louder but still nothing, I keep moving towards the bed until I'm standing right in front of her then I lean down until I'm pretty close to her body, "Molly, wake up." Still, nothing so I gently place my hand on her arm and slowly shak
Letting go Chapter 24
Christian Crying brings me out of my sleep and I quickly drag my ass out of bed before Katie wakes up Sophie. "Good morning princess." The moment I pick her up and hold her close to my chest while placing a gentle kiss on her head she stops crying and as always it tugs at my heart. As I do so often I start to wonder who she thinks I am. I mean she's obviously comfortable with me but then she's also comfortable with my brothers and parents still, I can't help but wonder if she thinks more of me. I wonder if she thinks I'm her dad from hearing Sophie and Brody calling me dad. I know she's only 6 months old but still, babies are more intelligent than we give them credit for. She starts babbling bringing me out of my thoughts and I walk her over to the chair that I have by my window and lay her across my lap so that I can change her diaper. I really need to invest in a changing station. Once she's all clean again I check the time and slowly groan when I see that it's 4 am and a wide-aw
Letting go Chapter 25
Molly I wake up feeling tired and stressed, After that hell of a nightmare it took forever for me to get back to sleep and more dreams soon interrupted my sleep. Only these weren't dreams of the fire but dreams that involved Christian and today of all days is not the day for me to try and figure out what they could possibly mean. I stretch out only to quickly realize that I'm not in my bedroom or, should I say Tom's guest bedroom. Where am I? I sit up and soon realize that I'm on the couch in the living area but how the hell did I end up here? As I get up from the couch a swarm of voices quickly reach my ears including one of the cutest voices that I have ever heard which can only be little Miss Sophie. "Tom and I have the fields covered and Hunter will be here at 12 so Tom will come back in then and help you guys. Jack's voice is the first of the adults to reach me. "I've got the late shift tonight so I'm free all day for whatever is needed," That's Callum.
Letting go Chapter 26
Christian The moment Molly's out of the room everyone at the table turns their attention towards me. “I already know what you are all thinking so save it. Yes, I was a dick to her ok but I still know that I’m right!”“Christian, what is it you think you know?” Tom's voice is more calm than before but I know him well and I know that it won’t take much to piss him off again. “That she’s hiding something. That the fact that one minute she doesn’t remember coming down here last night but then the next minute she does seems strange. Also don’t think I haven’t thought about the fact that she just upped and left both her and Archie’s family’s after the funeral and hasn’t bothered to even go back there to visit them never mind living there. And there’s also the fact that she doesn’t have a job but never seems short on money which makes me believe that she’s spending yours and I won’t have her rinse you for everything you have. No way, you worked too dam hard for that!” The more I speak th
Letting go Chapter 27
Molly My heart is broken, completely and utterly shattered! How could he do that to me? I know that this could be all made up and just some random woman trying her luck but only a few people knew about Archie's life insurance and aside from that there was a picture amongst the papers, a photo of a little girl and she was the mirror image of my late husband. "Molly, sweetheart look at me." Tom's voice drags my mind back into the room. for a split second, I wondered if he knew about this but I saw how sincere he was when he answered me, and in all honestly, I know that Tom wouldn't do that to me, he wouldn't keep a secret like that from anyone or for anyone, not even his best friend. "I'm going to go for a walk." I take the papers from Tom and place them back in the thick brown envelope as I turn to head for the door only I end up bumping into a pissed-looking Christian. "Shit, sorry! I'm just going to take a small walk and then I will be back for my stuff. It's all packed up and if
Letting go Chapter 28
Molly I've been walking for a while without any success in recognizing my soundings when the heavens open up and rain pours down on me. I dont think I've ever seen rain this bad before. It's freezing cold and within seconds battering down on me and everything around me leaving my clothes completely soaked through. What the hell? I decide to start jogging hoping to figure out where I am a lot sooner than if I was walking, however, after some time I realize that it isn't going to work. The ground beneath my feet is starting to get muddy and slippery and if I keep running I will end up face down in the mud. The wind is picking up and I'm starting to think that maybe this rain is more than just that, maybe there's a storm coming that I hadn't heard about. As I keep walking carefully avoiding falling flat on my face as much as possible I pick up a nose amongst the rain and wind and I'm pretty sure it's a dog barking. I keep heading towards the sound and feel relief when I hear the ba

Letting go Epilogue part Two
Christian Just a few minutes later we arrived at the house and my brothers helped bring in the babies and the bags then put both of my boys in their bassinet that's been set up in the living room while I got Molly comfy on the sofa then they joined us for a cup of coffee and we chatted as I kept watching the time and wishing it to hurry up so that all of our children can be here together. Our future as a family looks amazing and I already know that we are going to make the best memories. Our children will grow up knowing that they are loved and cared for and will never be in need of anything ever again. It still shocks me to think about where I was a year ago and where I am now but I wouldn't change a thing... well, if I could change something it would be Molly's last name, she would be my wife until our last breath and maybe we'd even have another baby or two but even if that time doesn't come I'm still going to enjoy every single moment of my life with my little family and foreve
Letting go Epilogue part one
Molly"They are so beautiful, Molly dolly." Tom cooes over the little bundle in his arms as he walks around my bed and takes a seat next to me. "I agree, little heartbreakers in the making here," Jack says as he stands over by the window with my other son in his arms. "You were so incredible, baby," Chris whispers in my ear as he sits on my other side and gently plays with my hair. I've always found it soothing and Chris knows this."Who do I have?" Tom asks not once taking his eyes off his nephew. "This is Jacob and Jack has Jonah." Jack walks over to us while rocking Jonah in his arms smiling so hard that his face has to be hurting but he doesn't seem to care. "Cute names." Both Chris and I nod agreeing. I love the names even if I didn't pick them. A little while ago I discovered that Chris has never got a say in what any of the other children were called. Of course, he loves all of their names but still, his opinion wasn't even considered so I told him that he could pick both the t
Letting go Chapter 103
Christian“So what do you want, Amy?”“We’ll mostly I want to apologise to you and your family for everything I have done but first I want to ask you something. Is… is that any chance of trying again, Chris? I miss my family and I want you all back.” That I was not expecting and for a moment it threw me, which of course she takes as me considering it.“We can start again, Chris. You me and the kids. We can move house if you want. I’m better now and clean and I have no plans of going back to who I was.”“Amy, that’s not going to happen.”“But I thought… won’t you even consider it?” Fuck why does she have to do this? Even after everything that she has done to everyone I still don't want to have to hurt her in any way. Am I stupid for thinking that way? properly but it is what it is. She was once my wife regardless of what she has done. "No, Amy. I'm sorry but I don't need to consider it because it isn't happening."But why, Chris? We were great together once.""We were Amy and when we f
Letting go Chapter 102
Molly "Amy?" She gives me a nod and a smile that seems genuine which is worrying in itself. "What are you doing here, Amy?" Ruby comes to stand next to me looking seriously pissed and I don't blame her, Amy has tried to destroy her life in more ways than one. I'll give it to the girl, she has some serious balls to come back here after everything that she has done. "I know I shouldn't be here but there is some stuff that I need to say to all of you and I really hope that you will allow me to, even if I don't deserve it." She looks like she's being genuine but I really don't trust her. “Why should I let you anywhere near my family?” Ruby moves so that she's pretty much standing in front of me and covering my body with hers. Which brings her attention to my stomach. “You're pregnant!” If this was anyone else the look of shock on her face would have me laughing but as it is I just want to hide my baby bump from her. I nod but don't say anything. For a moment a sad look covers her
Letting go Chapter 101
Christian"It feels like it's been forever since we've had a chat just you and me. How's things going at the bar darlin'?" My mom sets a cup of coffee down in front of me on the kitchen table and then sits next to me with her own. Brody is at school while both Sophie and Katie are taking a nap and everyone else is either on the farm or at the pub. "I know, Ma. The bar is going great but things have been crazy busy these past few weeks, especially with getting ready for the twins."She nods her head excitement pouring out of her, She's not been shy in showing how excited she is for the twin's arrival but then again she's always been the same with all of my children. "I know things are crazy but it will be worth it. Two more little babies, two more grandbabies for me to love. Oww, I can't wait!" Her words make me smile and laugh. "I know, it's going to be manic but so much fun.""Oh yes, I knew the twin gene would go to one of you, maybe it will go to more than one of you, can you imagi
Letting go Chapter 100
MollyIt's been two months since I told Christian about the baby and it's honestly been the best two weeks of my life. When I told him part of me knew that everything would be okay, he has said on several occasions that if it happened that we would be okay but still, there was a part of me that worried that he had changed his mind and that he wouldn't want this. Of course, I was wrong and I kind of feel a little guilty for having any doubt in him.The day after I told him we told the rest of his family. We did tell Tom first on his own as he's my best friend and I felt that it was the right thing to do and thankfully Chris I was more than happy about it. As you can imagine his family was so insanely excited at the news of another baby coming into the family and I'd be lying if I said that I didn't cry for about an hour at the pure love that is in this family.I never knew the love of a family growing up. My birth mother put me into the foster care system when I was two years old becau
Letting go Chapter 99
Christian"I'm sorry say that again?" Molly looks a little nervous but still, I can see the ghost of a smile on her beautiful face. "I said I'm pregnant, Chris. I'm sorry about the blunt delivery but I didn't know how to tell you and I want you to know so that you can be sure that me moving in with you is really what you want." Is this girl serious?Aside from making this girl my wife, I couldn't think of anything more I could want. Fuck I don't know what scares me more right now, the fact that I'm thinking about marrying her so soon or that the idea of marrying her so soon doesn't scare me. After the shit show that was my marriage to Amy, I never thought that I would want to be married again."Chris?" The small tremor in her voice brings me back to the present and her sad face. Shit, I was so lost in my own thoughts that I've got her worried when she doesn't need to be. I place a kiss on top of her hair and watch as a shiver runs down her body only it is more a shiver from her being
Letting go Chapter 98
Molly"Chris, what are you doing?" I giggle as he leaves the farmhouse and starts heading towards his house with me hanging over his shoulder. "I already told you." I yelp then laugh even harder when he slaps my ass and picks up his pace. The embarrassment that I felt when he picked me up in front of his brothers has quickly turned to lust and now I'm more than eager to get to his place. "Yes, but I could get there just as quick on my feet you know?" He smacks my ass once again before gently rubbing it. "That may be true but I much prefer you over my shoulder." I must admit being over his shoulder isn't the worst thing in the world, not when his fine ass is in my direct view.Whistling and hooting have my head shooting up and my face going bright red when I see Hunter and some other guy standing in one of the pig pens looking our way. Well, that's my embarrassment back. What the hell are they even doing out here so late? Of course, Christian has no shame at all and instead of ignoring
Letting go Chapter 97
ChristianOnce I know they are happy, distracted, and being taken care of I throw on my boots and head out of the house and across the field to the farmhouse and my girl. I walk in and instantly spot her sitting at the kitchen table next to Tom. I walk over to them and rest my hands on her shoulders before placing a kiss on the top of her head. "How's the shopping going?" She tilts her head up to look at me and rolls her eyes making me smile. "Great! I have everything that I wanted." Tom says sounding very proud of himself. "And how about you darling, you bought yourself anything?" "No, she hasn't despite my pleas." Tom groans dramatically. "I don't need anything sweet cheeks, not right now anyway." He gives her a look as if she has offended him making me laugh. "You do not have to need new clothes to shop my girl, have I not taught you anything in our long and lively friendship?" She laughs at his dramatics while sipping on her coffee. "One outfit and that's it I mean it!" She s
