Christian

"You have got to be kidding me, Amy!" Whenever I think that she can't shock me anymore she goes ahead and does just that. I've had a niggling in my brain all night telling me that she wasn't done yet and I think that's one of the reasons that I couldn't sleep and now here she is proving me right once more.

"Why the fuck do you need more money, Amy? Surely one million is more than enough for your drugs an-"

"Tom, wait!" He looks at me shocked and confused at why I'm stopping his rant. "Not in front of her." I nod at Katie who is cuddled up in my arms and I know he now gets it by the look of understanding that he gives me. "Sugar, I'm sorry baby girl!" He walks over to me and kisses her on her head. I know she's only a baby and doesn't actually understand what's being said or what's going on but still, I don't want her witnessing any of this.

"I'll take her." Callum comes to a stop at the side of me, they must be able to hear us inside the barn. "Hey bubble bum, wanna come cud

    MollyFuck Amy has more front than Walmart, asking for more money when she's about to become a millionaire any day now. Although I can't say that I'm surprised that's why I withdrew that extra fifty grand. I just wish that I had been wrong about her but once again she sinks to new lows.It took everything in me not to knock her out when I heard her saying that she would keep Sophie and sell her to someone else. The bitch is crazy if she thinks that any of us would ever let that happen. As much as I despise giving her any money, I would give her my last to keep those kids safe.Another thing that's pissed me off about her wanting more money is that I was the one who had to go out and sort it with her. When Tom and I had picked the money up from the bank I was so concerned with getting it to the farm safe that I forgot to tell him about the extra money that I had withdrawn and so he was stuck at that moment and now... well now I'm pretty sure Christian knows that it's my money or at the

    Christian "What do you mean she's gone, gone where?" A sinking feeling hits my stomach like a rock but I won't let it affect me not until Tom says the words I have a feeling he's going to. He stands from the table finishing his beer in one swift mouthful before heading for the fridge and pulling out two more and passing me one. "I can't... I promised Chris. I promised I wouldn't say." He looks torn and I hate to put him on the spot but there's a difference between her going to Penny’s for the night and leaving Huston. If she's at Penny’s because she needs a break then as crap as that will be I will deal with it for a night, I'll have no choice but if she has left Huston or is on her way to leaving then I need to know, and now. I have to stop her. She can't leave Huston. She can't leave me. "Can you answer me this then is she still in Huston?" He takes a moment to think about his answer before nodding his head. A puff of air leaves my mouth as I feel relief flood me. "For now anyway

    Christian The traffic on the way to the hotel is busy, much busier than normal for this time of the day and it's pissing me off! Why the fuck is everyone out at the one time that I need the roads to be clear or at least as little traffic as possible? I swear everything is a fucking battle lately and I'm surely about due a break, right? My phone ringing through the car stops my loud cursing at the ass in front of me who's going 15 miles an hour and grating on my last fucking nerve. I notice it's Tom and I'm quick to answer, he may have something new that I need to know. "Hey, brother. Everything ok?" I can hear the kids in the background laughing and it instantly has me smiling. "Yes, brother all good. Are you there yet? Only the kids wanted to say goodnight to you before Zack reads them their bedtime story." "No, I'm stuck in flaming traffic that's never about at this time of the day! stick me on speakerphone." I hear the phone click before the voices of my babies come through. "Hi

    MollyI feel so lightheaded that I wouldn't be surprised if I fainted at any moment. Christian has turned up here, kissed me like his life depended on it and is now pinning me down on his lap by my hips... Fuck my life! Why has he come here when he could have just stayed away without having to see me again just as he has always wanted? Why is he acting this way? and more importantly, why the hell do I like it so much?As for Tom, that little shit is going to pay for this, not only has he told Christian where I'm staying but he must have given him my room number too because there's no way the receptionist would hand out that information, she isn't allowed. "Molly, you ok?" I blink as I put my attention back on Christian completely forgetting that he was just talking to me. I'm so distracted by the hard bulge that I can feel under my ass that I zoned out for a moment there."Yes, sorry. So you want to talk about... us?" He nods his head with the sexiest smirk across his face and hell it

    MollyI'm stunned by his words, stunned enough that it's left me speechless which is a rare thing, trust me. He leans forward and places a gentle kiss on my lips and it seems to bring my focus back where it's needed. "Molly, don't go. Please don't leave. Forget about your flight and come back with me. I don't technically have a home right now but I will soon and I want you there with me."His words make me smile for a moment but the fear that I've been feeling soon takes back over. "Molly, talk to me, sweetheart." There's so much I want to say but my throat seems to have tightened up making it hard to say the words, to admit the truth but I still force them out. "I'm scared," My words sound raw as if I've been swallowing razor blades but they are true and it's a truth that I don't like admitting."What are you scared of baby?" He takes his hand off my hips and slides them around my back pulling me into him until we are chest to chest, racing heartbeat to reaching heartbeat. "I'm scare

    ChristianThe moment we got back to the house last night Tom stole Molly from me, the girlfriend-hogging prick! Sophie was still awake when we got there and she wanted to sleep with me so Tom dragged Molly into his room with him. I've not seen her since and I swear this morning has been the longest morning of my life!I grin to myself thinking about her finally being my girlfriend, actually being able to call her my girl feels good and something that I won't be taking for granted anytime soon. Thankfully Sophie slept all night with no nightmares which is amazing but me, however... well, I've not slept much. I couldn't get my mind off Molly and like a teenager in love I was counting down the hours until I could see her again. She was only sleeping across the hall and yet I missed her.You can imagine how annoyed I was when I didn't get to see her before the school run this morning. Don't get me wrong I'm glad she slept in it'll do her good but it also meant I had to wait longer to see

    MollyIt's early morning but I've not been able to sleep too well so while everyone is still in bed I decide to head downstairs and make a cup of coffee and enjoy it on the porch, maybe even watch the sun coming up. It's a little chilly so I grab the throw blanket that's on the swinging chair and wrap it around me before holding on to my coffee with both hands while leaning on the wooden fence that runs around the outside of the porch.As I enjoy my coffee my mind begins to wonder. It's been five days since I agreed to give me and Christian a chance and so far I don't regret a thing. It's crazy to see such a different side to him now but I've quickly come to realize that he thought he was protecting his family and I can't say that I wouldn't act the same in that situation.However, the person that I first came to know wasn't the real Christian, that I know very well now. The real Christian is amazing, he's caring and kind and so so sweet but he also has an edge that makes me think tha

    Christian The moment we arrive at the court house my heart sounds pounding, I'm so nervous that I can feel my hands getting clammy so I try and wipe them along my jeans as I sit in an uncomfortable wooden chair right outside of the courtroom door while waiting for my solicitor to arrive. I see Molly's hand come across my eyesight as she takes my hand and gives me her beautiful smile. "It's going to be ok." I want to believe her, hell it should all be straightforward but this is Amy and despite my confidence in her doing what she needs to for the money I can't help this feeling deep in my stomach that something's going to go wrong today. I squeeze her hand then let out a sigh when she leans forward and places one sweet kiss on my lips. She is slowly getting less shy about being touchy with me around my family and I love it. I nod my head while giving her the best smile that I can manage. "I know, I just can't help but have this feeling that something is going to go wrong."

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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
