Yana's PoV

Rubbing my head slowly, I try to ease the throbbing pain I'm feeling as I wake up. I groan and attempt to exit the bed, but Zach tightens his hold on me.

Groaning, I pry his hands off and drag myself to the bathroom to relieve myself. I look like I've been electrocuted, what the hell happened?

As I exit, Zach chooses that moment to stir awake. "Hey baby, you okay?" He asks, opening his arms for me. I begrudgingly lay on him, and he starts rubbing my back.

"My head is about to split in two." I complain with a grimace.

He eases up and then hands me two aspirins and a bottle of water, which I take gratefully.

An awkward silence ensues between us until Zach clears his throat. "Laura told me to come..." He averts his gaze, "I'm gonna go, I know you need your space."

Hearing him say it pained my heart, but I try to hold my composure. Leaning back against the headboard, I sigh deeply.

His eyes close briefly, "No re

    Yana's PoVThe amount of shit Damon had pending on his desk is simply atrocious. This dude must've spent more time whoring than working! Yawning, I check the time on my phone and I'm shocked to see it's 7:35p.m. Dialing Zach's number, I wait for the line to connect. "Hey baby! Are you ready?" He asks in a chirpy tone."Yes, I'm beat and done for the night." I stifle a yawn as my eyes start feeling droopy.He chuckles. "Aite, I'm gonna head out. I'll be there in about fifteen minutes.Resting my head on the desk, I drift off to a soundless sleep. Sometime later, I'm awakened by a loud thud outside my office.

Entering the hallway, no one is in sight, so I advance towards the cubicles to look around.A window clanks rapidly against the sill , so I close it and breathe a sigh of relief. As I'm about to return to my office, someone grabs the back of my head and pushes my face to the glass. I scream out but shut up instantly whe

Her face is bruised, so are her arms and side when I checked. Laura stands beside me, giving my shoulder a gentle squeeze. "She's gonna be okay.

They enter the room and a torn expression etches their faces at the sight of Yana.Laura approaches me nervously. "Please don't get angry." She pleads then glances at them briefly.

    Zach's PoVNerves are wracking my body right now as Yana gazes up at me. My dick is pulsating at her entrance, she bites her lips as I push it further inside. Yana tenses against me, I stop to allow her to get accustomed to my girth and length. I kiss her slowly, and as she relaxes, I push all the way in.Yana mewls and sinks her nails into my back, drawing blood, no doubt. "Shiiitttt! That hurts so bad!" She says shakily and tries to push me away.I ease myself up and close my eyes, savoring the moment I've been waiting for. It's finally here! "You good babe?" I ask lowly.

It's as if she dropped off the face of the earth. I tried reaching out to her friends and the few family she ever introduced me to, but none of them know her whereabouts. Footsteps echo down the hallway, I move stealthily to see who it is. Kyra! She always sneaks out of her room to get a snack or ice cream, thinking I'm unaware of it. "And where do you think you're going young lady?" I ask, leaning against the door frame. She jumps, startled. "Umm...umm to get water." Kyra says with a sheepish grin. I fold my arms, "I wasn't born yesterday you know." I walk towards her with a gentle smile, "I always helped you sneak downstairs when you were much younger." She sighs in relief, "Gosh, couldn't you have said that years ago?" Kyra slaps my arm, "How was I supposed to remember that bit on info?" We walk hand in hand downstairs, I gra

    Yana's PoVThe past year has been simply amazing and filled with success for my entire family. Zach and I opened YAZ, the newest hotel a month ago, and I'm the Managing Director. We struggled to find a name until Laura combined the first letters of our names, including Azair's. The grand opening was dubbed the event of the year, with celebrities and top officials giving us rave reviews. I cemented my name in the industry from thereon, being featured in several business magazines because of my creative innovations and designs.Laura opened her own real estate firm with Zach and Kyle as her silent partners. She's now reeling in the big bucks, especially since she amassed a huge clientele in a short time. Kyle proposed three months after they became official, on Laura's birthday. My guess is that she got pregnant that night, as they are now expecting a baby girl!Sapphire is my assistant director, and she's absolutely amazing! Connor relentlessly pursued her until she finally gave in. T

I certainly released my inhibitions, and Yana definitely let her hair down.Easing her head from my arm, I slowly slip from the bed and go to check on Azair. I enter his room to see Kyra seated in the rocking chair feeding him. "Awwe you're such a good big sister!" I tease and pinch her cheek.Kyra slaps my arm, "I didn't think y'all would be awake til tomorrow. Lastnight was crazy!" She grins then hands Azair to me.I'm having a raging hangover but I'm trying not to let it show. Azair burps loudly and pukes on my shirt. "Way to go buddy." I smirk at him as he smiles at me.Kyra snickers, "He just loves you Dad, suck it up, or I'll tell Mom!"Flicking my finger against her forehead, I sit in the chair and turn the T.V on to catch

Reverend Dunbar looks at me, excitement swirling in his eyes. "Ready to pledge your undying love my dear?" He grins, and I beam with pride."Definitely! I've been waiting for this moment all my life!"Zach smirks and takes my hands in his.

Yana, you changed my life completely and I'll forever be grateful to you, especially for our son, Azair. My entire life is at your mercy, I vow to make every day better than the last for you from this day forward. Our family is now complete because of you and I am forever indebted to you.

    Zach's PoVThree Months laterI still can't believe this day is finally here. True love really is a beautiful thing and I'm glad I took a second chance with Yana. Her indecisiveness resulted in us settling on a private ceremony with only our family, closest friends and a few associates.Standing at the altar for the last hour is actually wearing my patience thin! I'm just about ready to go find Yana and drag her here myself! Kyle dabs my sweaty forehead once again and snickers, "You sure Yana knows the wedding is today?"I swat his hand and glare at him. "Say that again and I'll knock your ass out!" I threaten, but he simply bumps Connor's shoulder and they laugh at my misery."I've never been this nervous in my entire life and y'all find this shit funny?" I grumble but it falls on deaf ears.Connor snorts, "Love is a beautiful thing and should not be rushed."How did I end up with these two as friends? Rolling my eyes, I ignore them and focus on Azair, who's playing with my tie.'Mom

    Yana's PoVForty five minutes! That's how long Zach and I have been waiting on Ramon to get here! Calls to him keep going to voice-mail, so just imagine how pissed I am right now!The only reason I'm not riled up is because Khadijah kept her promise and has been sending me pictures with Azair. Zach nudges me, drawing my attention away from my phone. As I look up, my eyes lock with Ramon's and he gives me a sheepish grin. I instantly glare at him and stand up to greet him."Remind me again why Zach has you as his lawyer!" I seethe, my nostrils flaring for emphasis.He scratches the back of his head, "Sorry hun, I got into a minor fender bender."I'm almost inclined to believe, but Ramon is the Devil's spawn! "Pssshh, tell that to someone who doesn't know you Ramon." I slap his arm hard, much to Zach's amusement."Why are we here?" Zach asks as he folds his arms and widens his legs.Ramon points towards a nearby door and walks off. As we enter, I realise it's a large room with several

My phone starts ringing as I enter it to head downstairs. "Hey Suarez, what's up?" I ask skeptically.As my attorney, he only calls me when there's a problem that needs my immediate attention. He chuckles, "Let's get straight to it shall we?"I grunt, "What's the problem now, man?" I ask dejectedly.His response is marred by alot of wind, I instantly roll my eyes. Ramon is definitely driving with his windows down! Ughhhh! "Bro, I can't hear a damn thing you're saying!" I snarl. Nothing annoys me more than this, and he knows it!He cackles, "Shit, my bad bro. As I was saying..." Ramon starts but a fit of giggles in his background distracts him.Taking a deep breath, I roll my eyes and snap! "Ramon, for fucks sake, tell yo sidechick to shut it for a few minutes and focus! I don't have all day!"Unfortunately, the elevator opens

It's gotten extremely busy, especially with new acquisitions, contracts, and properties.Khadijah stays with Yana to help her out with Azair and also monitor and report to Dr. Chambers. It's now 6:43a.m, and I'm feeding Azair, allowing Yana to sleep. "King, you gotta give Mommy a break at nights please." I whisper softly as he gazes up at me innocently.He looks at me as if he understand, but simply continues to drink from his bottle without a care in the world. "Mommy needs her rest, so take it easy on her, okay?"A few minutes later, I place him on my shoulder to burp him. As if taking revenge, he pukes all over my white tee and gurgles. "You little twat!" I exclaim then place him into his crib.Within minutes, he succumbs to sleep and I si

His overbearing father even has a nurse on call, just to monitor him!Grabbing my phone, I call Laura since she didn't bother to visit us since Wednesday. "Hey sis, what's up?" She asks casually."Don't hey sis me. You didn't come to see me or your nephew in two days!" I retort.She huffs, "Sorry boo, but work has got me on a hampster wheel these past few days." I notice how tired she sounds and instantly regret my approach."Damn, you need to take a vacation sis." I state pitifully.Laura chuckles, "Yep, I really need some me time, so you better come get yo nephew-son."I mull it over for a few seconds, then a brilliant idea comes to mind.
