[Ava]

Gabriel carried me in a bridal style as he walked out of the restaurant, my heart was pounding hard against my chest. How do I begin to explain this to him now? I would always be the one to make the rules of no secrets, and yet I kept this from him. Should I simply tell him that I received a call from Caleb after he had left? But lying to him would just make things worse.

I raised my head a bit as Gabriel opened up the passenger seat and slowly pulled me down, he leaned in closer and reached for my seat belt as he hooked it up, he shut the door and walked right into the driver's seat, he settled in, I was lost for words

He picked up his phone, his finger darting across the screen before bringing the phone to his ear.

"Please forward the required paperwork to Mr. Sanchez, and after it's signed, make sure you go over it carefully!" Gabriel said to whoever was on the phone and hung up.

He put his phone down and started the engine as he drove off, his hand gripping the steering whe

    [Ava]"Ava, do you think saying sorry fixes everything?" Gabriel snapped as he slowly lifted my legs and cradled them in his lap.I bit down on my lower lip, staring at his gray orbs as he lowered his head and carefully examined my leg. My eyes darted to the bruise, which was only a faint scratch but was hurting a lot. Gabriel slowly reached for my black four-inch strap heels and pulled them off my leg"I'm sorry, baby, but it's not what you think," I said slowly, biting my lower lip."It will hurt a little bit!!" Gabriel stated, ignoring my apology, as he took a pea-sized amount of gel from the gel tube and applied it slowly to my leg"Did it hurt?" Gabriel whispered, his eyes still fixed on the band-aid in his hand as he tore off a little"No," I muttered, and he gave a firm nod as he slowly placed the bandage over the bruise, making sure it was well-covered"Baby!!!" I called out to him in a whisper, hoping he would at least look up at me"Was he the reason you kept reminding me th

    [Gabriel]As I shut Ava's door and walked down the stairs, my mind wandered back to the look in Caleb's eyes, that smirk on his lips when he stood at that door, no matter how much I wanted to ignore it, I just couldn't, that smirk seemed to have a lot of meaning behind it. Did he ever see me with his little sister? This question has been hovering over my head since I stepped out of that restaurant.First, there was fear in his eyes when I walked up to them, he looked like he recognized me from somewhere, but no matter how much I think about it, I don't think I've ever seen his face before My finger dug into my scalp as I walked into the kitchen, grabbing a glass of water and an analgesic from the first aid kit. I dropped it on the counter and grabbed my phone to call Jaxon, we needed to find out if that young man knew anything about me. Dialing Jaxon's number, he picked it up on the first ring."Boss!!" His voice was more of a groan, and I didn't need anyone to tell me he was fuckin

    [Ava]I walked out of the bathroom, slipped into my short pink gown, I tied up my hair into a bun, staring at my reflection one more time, I picked up my phone and made my way downstairs.I walked towards the kitchen entrance, my legs halted, I stood still, staring at Gabriel, his two hands folded across his chest as he leaned against the kitchen cabinets. My eyes darted to the food that was on fire that he wasn't even paying attention toMy gaze returned to Gabriel as I observed his face, his lips were pressed into a thin line, and he was still unaware that I was in here. What the hell is he thinking about? I rubbed my temples, clearing my throat as I walked into the kitchen. He batted his lashes, his lips curving into a smile as he looked in my direction."Are you done?" He motioned for me to come forward, I smiled and walked closer to him. His hand circled my waist, as he kissed my forehead before pulling back."Did it hurt while you were bathing?" Gabriel asked, pointing to the sm

    [Gabriel]My lips curled into a smile as she whispered, her eyelids fluttering closed. My cock twitched as I watched her pouted lips."My princess," I stroked her hair gently. "You worry too much, I said I'm fine!!" I leaned in and kissed her forehead, a soft snore escaping her lips, and I knew she had fallen asleep. I reached for the duvet and covered her properly. I leaned in to kiss the corner of her lips only to pause when a soft whisper escaped her lips."I will miss you, Daddy!!" She curled herself up as she whispered. "I am still here, princess, I'm not going anywhere yet!!" I mumbled under my breath and kissed her lips before pulling back, giving her one last look, I stood up and made my way to the door.Jaxon already called that he was waiting for me and I needed to explain the situation to him, we need to find out more about that Caleb guy, and I need to be sure if he has ever seen me with his kid sister, I can't let my guard down, that look on his face is not just an ordin

    [Ava]I stirred in my sleep, my lips curling into a smile as I felt a hand stroking my hair. My eyes snapped open as I tried to adjust to the lightening that was sipping into my room, I batted my lashes, rubbing the remaining sleep off my eyes, my eyes took a close look at the figure sitting beside my bed with her fingers on my hair stroking it gently with a wide smile all over her face"Good morning, pretty damsel!" Ashley's sweet voice cut through the air, making my brows furrow together"Ashley!!" I mumbled under my breath, a yawn escaping my lips, as I sat up straight"How did you get here so early? did you come back last night?" My gaze was fixed on her as I watched her suppress a chuckle."What a sleeping beauty! Did you say early?" She rolled her eyes jokingly. "Take a look," Ashley tilted her neck pointing at my wall clock, my eyes followed her"What the fuck? Noon? How?" I gasped, looking back at Ashley, who narrowed her eyes at me playfully."Beats me, did you drink last nig

    [Gabriel]This could have been a big issue if I wasn't careful with my words with Logan, I was very sure that I hadn't said anything I wasn't supposed to"Gabriel, I'm talking to you!!" Ava said softly, "It's nothing for you to worry about princess, meanwhile you're looking gorgeous this afternoon!" I leaned in and placed a soft kiss on her forehead."Don't try to avoid my question, I noticed you were not looking good last night, and now I just heard Logan telling you not to worry, don't I deserve know what's bothering you?" She made to pull away from my lap, but I held her back."No, princess, that's not what I meant by that, when I said it's nothing for you to be worried about, it's because it's about work, I have been trying to sort out a few things, but it's not going exactly as planned." I said, hoping she would just buy it and skip the topic, but this is my little doll, and she will always try to know more"Work? But it didn't look like you were discussing anything work-related

    [Ava]"This is beautiful!" I said softly as Gabriel pulled up at a showroom,. Gabriel stepped down and I made my way out, my eyes darting around, there were a lot of cars parked outside the huge compound and I could see the showroom from where we stood"Let's go in!" Gabriel smiled at me as he held my hand and we made our way insideThe sound of the gently polished marble and gentle chatter filled the room. The showroom was spacious, with high ceilings and large windows that let in a lot of natural light. The walls were adorned with sleek modern designs, and the floors were spotless.Gabriel took my hand and led me to the roll of a shiny car, a young man walked up to us with a smile on his face. "Mr Pierce, you're welcome!" He bowed his head respectfully and smiled warmly at him before turning towards me"Welcome ma'am!" He smiled and I returned his smile"We will take a look around!"
