Hunter and I are back to the way we were before and I cannot be happier. There is still a lot of things hanging in the air, like the Sloane Empire, but we will have that discussion when we are ready.

What only matters now is the baby.

I am six weeks pregnant.

The morning sickness has started, and I am starting to feel the best parts of being an expecting mother. I have stopped counting how many times Hunter rubs my belly a day. He has, in the times that I really get sick, he has started reading to our baby. We decided that we do not want to know what the sex of the baby is, even though I still firmly believe it is a boy. We need something to look forward to, not only the pregnancy but the joy of a surprise.

So it is with great difficulty that I am finding something to wear. Even though I do not keep much in these days, I have grown rather bigger than what Hunter likes to refer to as a bus. This rules out the option of trying to fit into one of my favorite

    …Raven POV…We finally make our way back home after what was a very emotional experience. I am glad that we did it, for it has brought Hunter and me once closer again. It feels that nothing but only me and him exists.As we finally arrive at home, he takes me through the lounge and lays me down on the cushions of the soft couch; he moves in beside me until his body is right next to mine."So," he stretches his sentence as he does when he is thinking."What are you thinking about?""Hahaha. Who said I was thinking? Maybe I am asking?""What are you asking then, Hunter?""Can I kiss you?" He flutters his eyelashes as he asks."Why on earth are you asking?""I cannot go…"I place my fingers against his soft lips and wrap his face in my hands. I pull his face closer until there is nothing but a mere breath between our lips. Then I softly whisper. "I thought you would never ask."&hell

    …Raven POV…Hunter is rushing me to the Doctor.I have had some bleeding and he is concerned, well, not only him, I am goddamn terrified.It is with great speed that Hunter is navigating his way through the city streets. In less than what seems like fifteen minutes we come to a screeching halt in the parking lot at the Hospital.So as we wander down the hallway to Doctor’s rooms, Hunter takes my hand and looks at me, “Everything is going to be okay.”As with always, once we arrive at the room, I put on the awful gown and lay down on the bed. The Doctor is running late; the damn anticipation is killing me. Each second that he takes too long, it feels as if my heart is slowly being cut from my chest. I, too, need to know that my baby is okay.After what seems like an endless half an hour, the Doctor finally steps into the room, "Hunter, Raven, I am so sorry about that. I had an emergency birth.

  • Loved by the Mafia King   Temptation Before Seperation

    It has been a week since Raven lost the baby; she seems to have settled down, feeling a lot better. But even though her face carries a smile, it does not seem to reach her eyes.I am afraid that our relationship is going to fall apart in a spectacular way. I have, on many occasions, come close to asking her where our relationship stands, but then I remember that she is under a lot of pressure and that I should not dump anymore than what she is carrying.After all, she is still dealing with the loss of our child, which I, can honestly say, have not been dealing with in a good way. I cannot say that I have come to deal with it because I have not, and I do not think that I ever will.So I find myself here, early morning, sitting outside as I do with so many mornings alone now and think of how much different things should have been. This is not the way that I have planned my life, and most of all, my relationship to be.We are like strangers in one house; I t

    She has done it again.She makes love to me, then she hits me with that.Is she honestly for real? Why? Our relationship is not that bad. We still have a lot to fight for. Why is she giving up now?Not wanting to fight with her after all that we have just been through I sit up and listen to her. With the deepest affection that I hold in my heart for her, I take her hand for I know what is about to come and god! I cannot bear to go through this again.This is fucking killing me."Raven, what do you mean?""Hunter, I think you know.""Now I don't, please talk to me. Tell me the truth.""There is no us anymore."She shakes her head, the agony of her words comes through, and just when I think the words won't kill me, then I see her crying."Hunter, our relationship is not working. I cannot see how we can go on like this.""I don't understand."With that, the agony that is hiding behind my voice burst int

    As I stand in the quiet corners of my room, I dread to make this call to Raven. Yes, what was our love lay completely in tatters, and in a way, I know that I can make peace with that.What? Not for one fucking minute am I accepting that.It takes me a very deep breath, and with a rather big lump in my throat, I finally speak as she answers."Hey, princess.""Hunter.""Listen, I do not want to fight, but I need you to tell me whatever it is that you have been trying to say.""Hunter, I think you need to sit down for this.""My god, Raven, what have you done?""Please, just listen until I have finished, and then you can say whatever you feel that you need to say. I don't think that, well apart from this, that there is any more damage that can be done between us.""Raven, just tell me what is going on."As she hesitates for several moments, I start to pace the length of my room, waiting for her to speak.

    I toss my phone over the length of the table, but before it hits the floor, somewhere is there to catch it. As I look up, with eyes that are turmoiling in more tears than they really should, I look into the soft chocolate brown eyes of Maddison."Maddison.""Hi, Hunter."It is hard to say which comes first, but the moment those words come flowing from lips that I know is sweeter than honey, that ache I felt not so long ago has now disappeared."When did you get here?""This morning. I would have come to say hello sooner but have been so busy settling into the new place.""So what? Are you back? Are you staying?""Yes, this time I am staying."Maddison looks at me as she places her hand softly onto my trembling hand that feels far colder than it truly should. Her smile is warm as her eyes meet mine,"Sorry, but I heard the end. Do you want to talk about it?""Sorry about that. I guess I just had to get that off my

    It has been three weeks since things between Raven and me have fallen apart. I have come, in my own weird way, to accept that it has come to a spectacular end. I have on the occasion, and might I say too many, but I have had the desire to phone her. I find myself with my phone in hand near sending her a message quite often. But between Mason and Maddison, I have managed to come to a point where I can say that I am moving on, slowly but at a certain pace.It is early morning; it is still dead silent. I have come to the only place where I can breathe and free my mind. My office. As I sit here with my eyes closed, just as I am completely drifting off into my own mind, I hear a scuffle behind me."What the fuck, Maddison?""Whoa, Hunter. Is that the way to greet a woman?""Why the hell are you sneaking up on me?""Came to bring you coffee."She reaches over to me and hands me the hot steamy coffee that buys from the Bistro around the corner from

Well, I can only think of one thing, things with her and Jax fell through, and she wants me to let her back into my life.That is simply not going to happen.I can say that I have slowly started to move on with my life. Yes, Maddison has been a welcomed distraction, and yes, after all these years, I still have those feelings for her that I once had.

There is a damn room full of mafia bosses, why the fuck can't they arrest one of them. Raven is going to kill me even before I get locked up. But hey, maybe I should act dumb and they will think they have the wrong man, ”Sorry but you need to repeat that.” We said you are under arrest, Mr. King.” “You do see that I am busy getting married?” “We apologize Sir but you have to come with us.” Then from next to me, a shocked Raven speaks for the first time, “Just wait one fucking minute!” “I am sorry Mam but your husband has

    …Raven POV…The time has come for me to turn the corner. The time has come for me to make my bridal walk towards the man that I will be spending the rest of my life with. This is the very last moment that I can still decide to do this and turn around and run. But as I peek my head around to where he is standing at the altar, I know that I am exactly where I want to be.With a very nervous Ava behind me, I am being urged on to make my bridal walk down a carpet that is covered with, yes, much to Hunter's horror; it is covered in pink rose petals.But first Ava pulls at my hair and checks my dress, and I have a quick look at my make-up. Ava then looks at me, "Now let us get this wedding on the way."I take one step forward and then another, short and hesitant, but slowly to my future. Then the wedding march starts playing, and I know that it is time to go. So I slip in that corning in absolute elegance.At first, my eyes lie low, too sca

    …Raven POV…What I feared has happened, Ava has dragged me into her room just before sunrise to start getting me ready for a wedding that is only happening in eight hours. By the looks of her, it seems that she has not slept a wink. So I refrain from making any comments and allow her to pull at my head in every direction to get the perfect do that, as she says, will complement my face and, of course, my dress.After what seems like at least three hours, she looks at me very satisfied in the mirror and nod at her creation.Next is my wedding dressing, now if I thought that this would be easier, well, it is an understatement. If it is not bad enough that they cannot tuck my breasts in properly, which seems to have grown overnight, they try to move my belly into the perfect spot.With only but an hour two spare, they slip into their dresses, and we look at each other, then of course she says something, and there goes my make-up down my face.

  • Loved by the Mafia King   The Countdown Begins

    Before sunset tomorrow, I will be married to the love of my life. To say that I am not a wreck would be a complete understatement.I do believe that I have told this once before, yet, again, I need to stop for one moment and take a step back, for, beyond all the craziness that fill our lives, I need to allow myself to remember what drives me. What makes this all worthwhile is the beauty that lies in my arms. Should I not have had her presence in my life, I would not have had the sheer willpower to take the impossible on.To have beauty in your life is easy, but to have the beauty of the woman that you love and the one that loves you in return is the greatest gift that one can experience. I can, with all honesty, say that there is no doubt that she completes my life. To be lonely for eternity can be seen as a life sentence, but having what you crave, is the greatest blessing.I have never been more assured to have chosen her to be mine for life. I will promise he

  • Loved by the Mafia King   Possessed By A Dilemma

    After we bid our farewell to everyone, my intention is to retire to my room and not to leave it at least for another day. And I do see the same sentiment on my princess's face. But what I also noticed is that cheeky smile that is starting to rise at the corner of her lips. In such a strange time, I become aware of her arousal."Princess, I do believe that you possess somewhat of a dilemma...""Hunter.""Yes, Princess?""You shall possess your own dilemma if you wish to continue your sentence."So it is in awe as I watch her make elegant strides as she ascends the stairs. She moves every curve to perfect precision, her hips rock from side to side, and it peaks my arousal. I have to fight the desire to pull her back and take her right at this very moment. I can so easily push her petite frame into this very wall that is presenting itself at the perfect timing, and that is exactly what I intend on doing.It is as if an animal is awakened inside

    This engagement party has got me stressed. Why I let my princess convince me to do this, is beyond my senses. Everyone is running around like a bunch of crazy people.But let us forget about the people running around like crazy people, that perky ass has been running up and down past me this whole morning, and every time she does fuck! I get hard. But wait...the little minx is not even wearing panties.The girl is driving me crazy.I so seriously want to slap that ass for making me so very frustrated.But...then she comes walking up to me."Hey.""Hey, princess. What is wrong, well apart from you lacking underwear? Did you run out of fresh ones?""No, I just love how the cool air blows against me.""God, give me ten minutes, and I will blow more than cool air against you.""Hunter!""Princess, the next time that skirt flares, I am pinning you on that table.""Well..."Fuck...when Raven says, well, she is about to get her way...Or she already has.

  • Loved by the Mafia King   Let The Chaos Begin

    Today is the day. It might as well be my wedding day, for I feel that I am near damn going to faint. So Raven slammed me back with a condition of her own. If I want to get married, then she wants to have some dreadful engagement party. Well, I think I am nearly going to die; for a second time, I need to go down on my knee and ask her for her hand in marriage. So, while she is running around for what is the fifth dress to wear now, I sit in a silent chuckle as I find it rather amusing. Now all of them are all white; the first thing she so kindly pointed out to me is that you get different shades of white; well, that does not seem obvious to me at all. The second thing is that my blue shirt is not matching her white dress. Now I should have never asked her if it is the right kind of white, for I had some kind of white stilettos come flying my way. "Princess, how much longer are you going to take?" "Just give me five more minutes." So patiently t

  • Loved by the Mafia King   End Of My Rope

    I have been standing outside of Raven’s room, waiting. I don’t know if she knows that I am here, but I guess by the nervous pacing that she has a good idea that I am lingering outside here.Ya, I fucking love the woman.But she is now driving me insane. She, exactly in Mason’s words, threw a total tantrum when she had realized that I had left, and she knew there was only one place that I went.Now, I have a temper that will come out when you have tested me beyond my patience. Yet, I can control it to a certain extent, the extent being when it is not Raven that is involved. But this woman throws a tantrum as if she gets fucking paid for it.It is complete bullshit.So, my patience is up, and I am about to enter this room whether or not she likes it.With nothing but a very determined and angry hand, I fling the door open, I have Raven in my face trying to squeeze past.“Oh no, you are not princess.

    So next, I find myself sneak out the front door without Mason taking note of me disappearing out of the gates in my car; as I make my way in the drizzle of the night, I find my way navigating the streets towards my destination, the street lights are falling in shadows down a very ominous path. There is absolute silence, but only for the roar of the engine that echoes over the pitter-patter of the raindrops beating onto the sidewalk. There is a danger that is lurking here. There is a danger that is hiding in the shadows that is ready to step out and destroy what is in its path. That danger is me.It does not take very long for my destination to appear.Have I gone fucking insane once again?I think I have lost my sanity the first time I ever laid these lips on Raven Sloane.Yet, I am not done fighting for her, not tonight, not tomorrow, not ever.So, I am finding myself stopped in front of a gate; from what I can see, it is quiet, do I even wi
