[Gabriel]I dropped Ava off just as she requested, a little further from her house, so she could continue from there, and I handed her the gifts I had gotten for her earlier.I had ordered her the latest iPhone 15 series because I noticed she was still using the old version from a year ago, and I had gotten her some beachwear and some clothes because I was planning to take her out to my private beach house soon, which was the third house I mentioned when I told her I had three houses in Zurich. I have houses in almost every city in Switzerland and a few other countries. I was smiling thinking of how she would react when I was strolling back upstairs earlier.But what I was not expecting was to walk back upstairs and see a shadow of the past lying on the floor, at that point, I felt my body go numb, I was trying to make sense of her reaction and why she was staring at that piece of necklace like that, I knew where it came from, but I did not understand why she was staring at it in that
[Ava]I had just returned from work, it was Friday, and it was currently 7 p.m, I had picked up a few items to prepare some food because Ashley planned on coming over for dinner, Logan got back a while ago, I asked him if he was going out again but he said no, I texted Ashley that he was home and she said she would be here soon.I swayed my waist from one side to the other while I cut my veggies, I stared down at the necklace on my neck, Gabriel had gotten me a beach wear and a new iPhone series, with some few clothes, I touched the necklace and smiled, my phone suddenly beeped, I washed and dried my hands with the hand towel, I think Ashley has arrived, but how did she get here so fast?I picked up my phone to answer her call, but a smile tugged at my lips as I realized it was not Ashley, but the love of my life. I took the phone and placed it in my ear."Look who has not called me since morning," Gabriel said over the phone."Sorry, I meant to call but I'm still a bit busy, how are
[Ava]I watched Logan smile and walk towards his room, my eyes following him until he was out of sight. I turned to Ashley, who had her lips parted and was staring in the direction Logan walked in"Could you please close your mouth a little before something enters there?" she turned to face me and leaned in closer."Ava, he looks more handsome than the last time I saw him, how can you be living in the same house with such a hottie and not... Oh, sorry, I forgot he was your brother." She said, and I shook my head, crossed my arms over my chest, and stared at her."Ashley I have no idea on what you're talking about, Please have a seat first. I still need to finish dinner. I didn't know you would get here so soon. please, make yourself comfortable. I will round up in the kitchen," "No, I will just drop my bag and come help you out.""No, Ash, make yourself comfortable, I will be done in no time." "No I want to help out, so we can be fast I need to see him more already," She smiled and
[Ava]"What are you doing here?" I asked Gabriel, who was staring back at me. He was dressed casually, wearing blue jeans and a black T-shirt."Where is he?" Gabriel asked, staring at me with a scorching look that made my skin prickle."Where is who? What are you doing here? You were supposed to be in Lugano.""Move aside," he said, shoving me a little as he marched inside, I shut the door and followed behind him, he walked towards the sitting room, scanning everywhere before heading to the dining room, his eyes met Logan and Ashley and he stood still "What happened, Gabriel?" Logan asked, staring at Gabriel, whose eyes were busy scanning the entire room. What the fuck is wrong with this Man? Did he come down here because of something I just said over the phone?"Nothing, Logan. I finished earlier than expected," Gabriel said, his gaze still scanning the entire space.I looked in Ashley's direction, and her gaze was fixed on Gabriel, her lips slightly parted."Seems you have company
[Gabriel]I was seated in Logan's bedroom, my fingers scrolling through her phone, the door swung open, and I looked up to see Logan entering."What's up, man? I thought you were supposed to come back in two days?" Logan asked."I kind of rounded up early, meanwhile, who is she?" Logan walked towards his closet, ignoring my question."Did I speak a language you don't suddenly understand?" I leaned against the bed headboard, staring at him."Ava's colleague, she invited her to dinner," Logan said as he searched through his closet."It did not seem like it when I walked in, it was as if you were the one who invited her over instead." I stood up and walked towards him, my hands slipping into my pockets, "Where to?" I asked."I will be right back, Gabriel. Stop asking such stupid questions. If you are hungry, have Ava get you some food." He slung his jeans jacket over his shoulder and grabbed his car key as he walked towards the door.And just as I expected, the door swung open in exactly
[Ava]"Gabriel no you can't do this, please," I held his hand, trying to shove his hand back into my pussy, he pulled his hand off and smirked as he stood up from his knee"What did you cook? I am hungry." He asked, adjusting my gown, and walked towards the bed, I watched him retrieve my phone before moving towards me."Have your phone," I ignored him, staring deep into those gray orbs."Are...are you serious right now?" I stammered, pressing my legs together, why did he fucking start touching me if he knew he would not let me cum? I held back tears that threatened to spill from my eyes."That's your punishment, my little doll." He drew me closer to him and spanked my ass hard before storming out of the room."Gab, Gabriel..." I tried to call his name, but my voice was muffled. I pushed the door open and walked towards the stairs."Little doll, I said I am hungry, should I starve?" I halted in my tracks and stared in his direction, I felt the urge to punch that face of his, my fist ti
[Ava]"What time are you coming back?" Logan asked as I walked downstairs, I was dressed in a black crop top and a short jean mini skirt, paired with my long black boots and holding my mini white bag. I let my hair rest on my shoulders, swiveling it to one side as I tucked the right side behind my ear, exposing my silver cross earrings."I will be back soon, Dad," I said, rolling my eyes at him."Dad?" He asked me, his gaze leaving his laptop to meet mine."Is that not who you are? My second Dad." I dropped my bag on the couch as I adjusted my skirt"So looking out for my kid sister is now a bad thing to do, right?""You missed the word big brother, being overprotective of your kid sister.""Ava Morales, just be careful and don't drink too much, you know you have a very light head, and remember I am not there to pick you up.""Yes, Dad, I will do as you have said, I am off." I rolled my eyes, and he chuckled."Be careful, little demon," He yelled as I walked up to the door and walked
[Ava]I followed him as we headed for the stairs, looking down to find Ashley, and my eyes suddenly met hers, she was standing with a lady, chatting, and smiling throughout, how the fuck did she suddenly forget that I came in here with her?"Are you alright?" Austin's voice jolted me out of my thoughts, I turned to face him, and I let out a smile that didn't quite reach my eyes.He held me until we reached a door, he pulled the doorknob and we walked in. It was a large bedroom with a completely black interior. I slowly walked in, and he shut the door. I looked at him and knitted my brows."Because of the noise," he replied immediately als if he could hear my thoughts. I nodded and stood in the center of the room, staring at him."Please take a seat, Ava." My heart skipped for God knows what, I stared at him, my eyes would not stop roaming around his body, I averted my eyes away from him and headed towards the couch, even though he was pointing to the bed for me to take a seat."You a
[Gabriel]I parked right in front of my office, my eyes darting to my watch. It was still 11 a.m. and I had a very important meeting with a client that I shouldn't missTaking a slow deep breath, I messaged my aching temples—I barely got a wink of sleep last night—Logan's words kept lingering in my head—what if the kid happens to be mine?I made my way out and headed inside my office, walking directly to my elevator carI walked out of my elevator, and my secretary, who spotted me, immediately followed behind me."Good morning, sir. Sir, you have... I cut her off, halting in my tracks."Apart from my meeting with Novastra Holdings, reschedule all other meetings!""Yes, sir, I will do exactly that!" She gave me a firm nod before walking straight back to her desk. I walked into my office and headed straight to the bar, grabbing a bottle of whiskey and a glass. My heart was pounding for no fucking reason - what-ifs were creeping into my head but I refused to let them draw out the fact t
[Ava]I'm not sure if it was my instincts, but something was not right with Gabriel.He zoned out twice while we were in a meeting with the interior designers, but he said it was work and he was fine so why was my mind telling me something different, like I couldn't put my finger on what it could be, but something was not right?I walked over to Ashley's porch, and pressed on her doorbell, I bit down on my lower lip, pressing the button again, and in seconds the door swung open, my brows knitted together as I stared at Ashley, she was wrapped up in her duvet, her hair scattered all over the place, with droplets of tears in her eyes."Ash!" I pushed the door wider and walked inside the house. She hummed, her eyes fixed on mine as she took a deep breath."What's wrong? Are you okay?" I tried to pull the duvet away from her body, only to find out she was naked underneath. "What's going on?" My brow creased even more as I held her, dragging her to her bedroom.I walked over to her closet
[Gabriel]"Did anything happen at work? You're not looking good!" Ava asked, her hand circling my neck. I'm supposed to be telling her about Sasha, but the last thing I want is to make my woman worry about such What was Sasha thinking? That if she mentions a DNA test, I will fall for her lies? I knew she was up to something, but I will make her realize that I am smarter than she will ever beTelling Ava that my ex of eight years ago suddenly showed up in my office would put her in a state I don't want and that's the last thing I want - making her worry"Gabriel!!" Ava's voice drew me out of my thoughts"What are you thinking about? You were fine before you left at noon, what happened at the office?""Nothing happened, baby." I leaned in, kissing her lips.I already had a feeling that Sasha was lying, I knew how cruel and deceitful she could be, which meant that if I had to take the DNA test, I would have it done by the hospital I would choose myself."Then why do you look sad? Why do
[Ava]"Oh my baby, I'm so happy for you, your ring is gorgeous!" My mother smiled on the screen. I sent her the picture of my ring and told her everything that happened, including the new studio Gabriel got for me, she was happy about it and couldn't stop giggling on the video call like she's doing right now"Why are you blushing so much, Mum? I was the one who got proposed, not you!" I rolled my eyes at her, and she burst out laughing, throwing her head back."It reminds me of my teenage years when your father asked if I would marry him, he was such a sweet man!" My mum said softly, and a smile formed on my lips, it's not something I could tell my father directly, we rarely even talk - he's always a one-word man and it's always awkward between us"Your father would be happy to hear this when he gets back!" My mum said softly making me bite down on my lower lips again. My father is hardly home, 365 days a year, if he spent time at home, I'm not sure he had ever spent up to 65 days at
[Gabriel]"What the hell am I supposed to see here?" I growled out staring from the phone to the disgusting thing standing in front of meThe screen displayed a picture of a little girl, with long dark hair, and big silver eyes, her lips were stretched into a wide smile as she held a teddy bear close to her body blowing a kiss to the camera - my stomach twisted but I forced a scoff staring back at Sasha"What am I supposed to see here, miss?!" I asked, pushing the phone back toward her."Don't tell me you don't see anything similar Gabriel," Sasha pressed, her voice trembling with urgency. "She's got your eyes, your lips..."I clenched my jaw watching the woman in front of me as she fought back her tears. I needed to see where she was going with this"She..." Sasha's voice cracked as she drew a shaky breath, wiping away her tears. "That's Elma...our daughter, our child!"A sharp laugh ripped from my throat before I could stop it. "What the fuck did you just say?" "Listen Gabriel!!" S
[Gabriel]"Hey, handsome!" Sasha's smile widened as she walked toward me, her lips curving into that stupid innocent grin - The audacity What...the fuck is she doing here? My jaw clenched as I stared at the familiar black and white orbs, my gaze shifting down her body. She hadn't changed -- same long silky black hair, the same face that once fooled me, the same slender figure wrapped around a short dress that screamed calculated intent. Her presents reeked of confidence. The kind that once had me trapped in her web - not anymore"My God, how long has it been?" I took a step back as Sasha held up her hand as if trying to circle them around my neck. Without giving her another glance, I sidestepped her heading straight into my office "Really, Gabriel?" Sasha snapped behind me, the clicking of her heels already indicating that she was right behind"I'm sorry, ma'am, but you can't go in. Please step back," my secretary's voice rang out, my jaw clenched hard, and I tilted my neck back, m
[Gabriel]"When did you come back?" Ava purred in her sleep as I pressed a kiss on her forehead, wrapping my arms around her. She was already asleep when I walked in last night"A few hours after I left!" I pressed her closer to her body, my lips stretching into a deep smile as she pouted her lips, trying to rub the remaining sleep from her eyes."Oh, that means I fell asleep then!" She said softly while flashing me those beautiful blue orbs."You did!" I pressed another kiss on her brow."What is the time?" She asked, her hand reaching for my cheeks. I inhaled softly, closing my eyes as I felt the warmth of her hand against my skin."It's noon!" I mumbled, and Ava shot up from the bed, her eyes widening as she stared back at me"noon?" She yelled. My lips sank deep into my teeth as my eyes trailed from her face to her boobs that were staring back at me, my dick throbbed hard as I took in the beauty before me, the sunlight slipping through the curtain, kissing her skin like it was mad
[Gabriel]I smiled as I walked out of Ava's door. It fucking happened, she said yes, and I couldn't tame the excitement that bubbled inside me the entire time, being balls deep inside her, I couldn't stop kissing that finger that now has my ring on it - knowing damn well our wedding ring will be there soon enough"Mine!" I groaned, shoving my hand inside my pocket as I made my way down"Where to?" My gaze shifted to Logan, who was walking out of the kitchen, shirtless, with his face drenched in sweat as he gulped down the chilled water in his hands.I shook my head staring back at him, he gave me the middle finger as he noticed what I was smiling at. "You're an idiot!" Logan snapped, making my lips curl into a smirk "Hmm, I never said a word!" I threw back at him and he scoffed"Are you leaving?""Jaxon texted me earlier that he has something important to talk to me about!" "Is everything okay?" Logan asked, his brows knitting together."I wouldn't know if I don't go meet him, I'll
[Ava]I couldn't believe it, my heart was pounding hard in my chest, and everything felt like a movie. I had just received the best engagement surprise, but that wasn't enough, Gabriel had gotten me a space. He made my dream come true."I'm so freaking happy for you, Ava!" Ashley pulled me out of her arms, staring back at me with tears streaming down her cheeks. She stiffened back her tears, her eyes darting all over the place."Thank you!" I mumbled, this is massive, I can't even begin to tell how shocked I am right now. My eyes darted back to Gabriel, he was staring at his phone with his brow creased together, and just as if he noticed my stare, he shoved his phone back into his pocket and gave me one of the most charming smiles I have ever seen."Congratulations!" My gaze shifted to Logan, who was now standing right beside me. He opened up his arms for me, and I threw myself into his arms"You deserve everything good, little demon!" He chuckled, pulling me out of his arms. I rolled
