Ace POVI left for the city straight after our game Friday night but every mile I traveled away from Alley I felt my body ripping apart. I hated myself for the way I treated her all week but mostly I hated myself for missing out on this night with her. It was her first dance, first time wearing a pretty dress and spending the night out just being a kid at a stupid school dance.I imagined her in a hundred different dresses wanting to know desperately what color she picked. Long or short? Sparkly? Satin or cotton? I spent a few hours sipping whiskey at the lounge with associates from multiple companies my father owned and all I wanted to do was punch each of them in the face. Imagining how I could make them bleed was becoming my new way to feel calm. Elise was there again and she made sure to flaunt her body in front of me. Leaning into my side, stealing touches as her hand slid over my arm, and of course the long stares while her eyes trailed over my body. It wasn't like how Alley's
Alley POVWhen I found out Ace had gone to Seattle early my heart felt like it literally shattered. Every day that passed I prayed more and more he would be home for Christmas. Usually, the three of us spend Christmas break together. Ace always had some charities to attend to, but was never gone for more than a day.I sent so many messages to him that I knew I was bordering pathetic. I had so much I wanted to say to him but he wouldn't listen. If we didn't have a screaming match soon, I would surely explode.Christmas Eve, I spent in bed with movies playing in the background. Derek offered to stay home with me but I just wanted to be alone. Layla, Ethan and Katie had their family events to be at so I took this time to just wallow in self-pity. Besides my mom barely knew what day it was let alone it was a holiday so there wasn't much else to do. Even if she did, I would be the last person she wanted to spend time with and I was thankful for that. My phone was on my pillow with Ace's m
Ace POVI had to hang up on Alley or I would lose control. She was going to the biggest party that happened every New Year's at the Lake. It would be filled with drunk kids and a mass amount of drugs. Alvarez was the head of the drug operation in our town and he was of course put into place by my father. Tonight was his biggest night all year. Kids bought thousands of dollars' worth of shit and as much as we tried to keep the Lake scene away from the heavy drugs it always showed up in large amounts this night.I had already seen the shipment that was sent to Alvarez last week and it was filled with ecstasy, molly and acid. There was no way I was leaving Alley in the hands of Derek or Ethan at that party. I packed my stuff and told Daniel change of plan. He of course didn't question me and got his stuff together after rebooking our flights.I didn't even tell my father. I knew he would stay in the city for at least a week and I was looking forward to having the house to myself. It was
Alley POVThe devil of my dreams was grinding against me, demanding I was his tonight. I won't deny it felt so amazing how his body reacted to mine but I wasn't a fool. He was claiming me as his weekend whore and I would never be just some ass for him to fuck. I should have told him to fuck off but I was weak for his attention. I was becoming that pathetic girl pinning over a man that would only use her up and throw her away. I hated it, yet never felt so fucking good in my life right now. His mouth molded to mine, his body pressed to mine, and his very large hard cock rubbing back and forth against me was driving my body wild.He finally broke the kiss leaving both of us gasping for air. "Now Alley. Let's go." He demanded and I burst out laughing."Told you I would win dipshit. You always crack first." I spun around leaving his arms and Ethan quickly grabbed me in his."Fucking savage Alley." Ethan chuckled."I'm not your weekend whore and don't ever treat me like one again." My voi
Ace POVThat fucking she devil, I swear. She never listens and it made me want to drag her home, bend her over, and spank her raw. Fuck! I guess the need to own her body wasn't fading. In fact, I think it just increased ten folds. I wasn't holding back this time. I wasn't boyfriend material, but I was a fuck boy and damn was I going to have her. I followed her out of the water, getting harder every second she revealed more of her body. This fucking vixen was wearing skimpy ass lingerie. Where the hell did she get this shit from?I grabbed her hand, stopping her where the water was just below her knees. "Stay!" I ordered."Fuck you!" She spat and I spank her ass. "Don't disobey me or I'll make sure my hand print is bruised on that ass for a week." I warnedShe bit her lip and squeezed her thighs together. Shit! She was going to be so much trouble.I walked out of the water grabbing a blanket Ethan retrieved from the truck. I walked ankle deep and crooked my finger for her to come.I
Alley POVAfter Derek demanded I go home from the lake Ethan led me back to his car and I just followed. It was well after midnight and honestly after the amazing orgasm Christian just gave me my legs were a bit wobbly. Was that supposed to happen? So much I didn't know but loved how he constantly forced me into the unknown."So, anything you want to talk about?" Ethan asks opening his door."Nope."We were silent a few minutes driving out of the woods. I wasn't sure what to say and suddenly felt a little awkward. Not from Ethan, just from everything. The beer and weed did go to my head fast, but that was hours ago and I was already passed my high. Now I was just exhausted but my mind just kept replaying every moment with Ace. The way he showed up there and never took his eyes off me, watching me kiss Ethan while he kissed Jess, how he blew smoke in my mouth, dancing, actually dancing, and then the whole lake thing. I guess he does want me. That should make me happy, right? Nope, it
Ace POVDerek was getting on my last nerve. How we were so close before I don't know. He looked at me just like my father did, worthless. Was he actually only friends with me for the benefit of my power? There is no way he ever really thought we were friends if he gave so much hate right now and I didn't even do anything.Alley was standing in front of me, arms crossed and pissed off. Damn it was so fucking sexy. "Fuck with me how exactly?" She demanded to know."Wouldn't you like to know?""Is this really all a game Christian? Are we done for good? Ten fucking years we were all inseparable. I don't know why you two are all of sudden mortal enemies but I'm not ready to throw it away. So, tell me! Are we done?"Her face was pure bitch, but her eyes showed me how my next words could shatter everything. I should say that I don't fucking care. That I want nothing from either of them and that they mean nothing to me, but I couldn't."Always so fucking dramatic, Alley. Derek is the one losi
Alley POVI don't know what is happening to me right now. Why do I constantly give in to him? I was completely naked on his bed with him sitting between my legs staring at my body. I didn't need to wonder if he liked what he saw. I knew that hunger in his eyes and he was always so blunt about what he was thinking.I moaned when he cleaned me up with a rag. For some reason these stupid little acts of caring were making me want him again. Then he bent down and kissed my pussy. I don't know what he was like with other girls but I couldn't believe he was like this with them too. Probably my own stupid self-trying to make me feel special but I wasn't going to lie and say I didn't love the way he made me feel.He leaned back down taking my lips again and we just laid there making out for at least a half an hour. We felt every curve of our body's, testing what got a reaction from each other. My hand slid under his pants and grabbed his ass and he moaned out. "Do you know how long I wonder w
Ace POV Seventy two. That's how many years I lived this life so far. At eighteen I thought I would be lucky to see thirty and now I've seen so much more. I wish I could say it was all good. That after Alley and I found each other again that everything was just happiness and perfection, but that wasn't life.Our first heartache was losing our daughter when she was seventeen in a car accident. Alley could barely breath for what seemed like years after we buried our child. I would relive all the horrors my father handed me over and over to never have to experience that pain. Our seven other children keep us going though. We had other's depending on us and we had to push through the heartache for them. Show them life was still worth living, despite the hole we all shared.My Nanny passed shortly after our daughter. She battled her lung disease for years and I knew she was in immense pain but she held on. Losing one of her great grandchildren I think pushed her to the end though. She told
Nanny Fuck Face POVI looked down from my balcony from my bedroom window leaning on my cane as all my great grandchildren played in the pool outside. Today was the twin's sixteen birthday and the house was full of friends and family. For six months I stayed with Ace in hiding, waiting patiently to be able to live this life I desired for so long. After my daughter died I gave up thinking life would ever be kind to me. I felt hopeless and weak until that day I stood at Ace's graduation party and saw his undying love for Alley. They were saying goodbye but I knew she was his salvation. The light he needed to keep his soul alive and good. Then I saw my other grandson, a boy I thought that was lost to this family and was thankful for it. The Blackwoods were so deeply rooted in sin I prayed everyday my grandchildren would find a better life than my daughter or I did.I never thought it would turn out like this. I wish I could change my past but I also didn't want to change a single moment
Alley POV"Are you saying my son is a problem. I can assure you he is the least of your worries." Christian's tall muscular frame was backing up a perky little woman against a wall. I rolled my eyes with a sigh. Such a brute, especially when it came to his kids."Calm down there, Varsity dip shit." I pulled his shoulder away from the scared woman. Christian's eyes turned dark on me and I just raised my eyebrows at him. My fingers touched my necklace, one he had made for me on my sixteenth birthday but gave to me years later. He was my forever, our love and bond infinite, and he will be a good boy that listened."This woman said Darien seems distracted. She thinks he's been the one pranking the principal. I want to speak to this so called principal!" His voice softened as he spoke to me, but it still held a demand in his tone. "This woman is his teacher and is harmless. We know our son and I'm sure he has been causing some havoc. Sit and calm yourself." I pushed him down in a small cl
Alley POVMaybe it was the pregnancy hormones or maybe I was really hating Ace right now. So much rage was coursing through my body and I was doing everything in my power not to grab the cake next to me and smash it in that motherfucker's face."What just happened?" Greg asked. He was still playing catch up."Ace faked his death. I'm going to kill him." All the pain I felt the last six months and he was alive? He was just hiding out, lying to all of us to keep us safe. That was bullshit, he was a motherfucker."Whoa! Alley's about to go lethal." Ethan and Daniel were next to me now as I watched Ace kneeling down speaking to Darien and Derek. He did look really hot and how he played with the boys was making my body call to him. No! He pays first."He lied to us." My head shot to Daniel. He knew too."Calm down. Remember you are with child Alley." Daniel had his hands up in the air in surrender."What's happening? I love when Alley goes psycho!" Elise said way too happy at my anger. Lyd
Alley POVSix months later:It has been a hard few months, but Greg was right, I did find happiness again. Losing Ace was just as hard, if not harder, than losing my brother and I would never get over losing either one of them.Daniel and his partner Rowan survived the explosion, but had some scars on their face and arms. I was beyond thankful they made it out alive and thought they just looked more bad ass now. Today Greg, Lydia, Darien, Derek, and myself were driving up to Daniel's summer home in Rhode Island to celebrate his engagement to Elise and his official promotion. Ethan and Layla had the baby girls in tow behind us and I looked back to them in my rear view mirror with a smile. For some reason, I was really, really excited about this weekend trip. We hadn't all spent time together in months and I wanted to be surround by my family for the whole weekend. Daniel already promised a big fire pit out back just for me, it was of course for everyone, but he knew how much I like s
Alley POVIt took Ethan a long time to calm me down and get me on a plane back home. I didn't want to leave without Christian, but Darien was waiting for me at home. I wish I could say it was easier to walk away for my son. I would always choose Darien above Christian, but it didn't mean it made my decision to leave any less harder.I cried in Ethan's chest the whole plane ride home, swearing I would never step foot on one of these again. The second I did get home Darien and Derek were there welcoming me with tears. That did make my sadness a little more bearable. I loved this family so much and I just didn't understand why I couldn't have Christian too. That night Greg stayed with me and we watched movies well past the moon rising. He knew I wasn't sleeping anytime soon and Ethan needed to be with his wife. Layla was doing much better, but she still had her own stuff going on.We didn't speak much and I appreciated how Greg was relentless with the way he cared for me. It reminded m
Daniel POVI paced the hallway outside Ace's hospital bed losing my mind. The switch was supposed to take place already and now I was losing my window. On top of that, once they arrested my boss IA moved in our department. Within a few hours I was assigned as the temporary head of the criminal organization task force and had one sorry ass fucker with a stick up his ass questioning my every move."So, you've worked undercover for seven years with this," a studious prick with four inch thick glasses looked over his paperwork, "ah, Christian Ace Blackwood?""Yes! We discussed this two hours ago. It's not that hard of name to remember either.""I see, yes. I'm just curious if maybe you've been too deep undercover. Seven years is a long time and you seem to have an unhealthy relationship with this murder." The IA agent looked in Ace's room with disgust. He was a murder, but they didn't know his story. He didn't kill randomly and never hurt someone innocent. I can't explain that in any ra
Daniel POV"It's time." I called into Rowan to move in on the people at Déjà vu. "You got everything on our boss we needed." I could hear his amusement over the call. We've been working to take our boss down for over seven years and this was our moment."Every last fucking word." I smiled and hung up.Once I heard about Angelo taking Alley, again, and how Ace was calling a meeting, which included Dmitri I knew how to get my boss. His filth went as deep as you would line his pockets. I feed him the bait that Angelo was desperate and he contacted him to make a deal.Before Ace's little meeting my boss meet Angelo to workout a plan to remove Ace permanently, for a hefty payment of course. Angelo paid him more money then he owned and I got it all on video including the wire transfer.My men moved in already knowing I was running this operation. I saw my boss standing behind Ace with his gun to his head and I knew I had to remove him quickly. He would kill Ace just for the high of taking
Ace POVI stood in front of my wall length mirror adjusting my tie. I haven't looked myself in the eye in a week and I wasn't sure if I liked the man staring back at me. I had my black suit on, black tie, and white shirt. Tonight was about ending as much of the bullshit as possible so I kept it simple. My jet black hair was still a little wet and slicked off to the side. The best feature of my whole body were these eyes and that was because they didn't belong to him. Well one other part of my body but he wasn't getting any attention tonight. I used to see my father in the mirror and fucking hated it more than anything. Despite knowing I was a good looking man I would give anything to change my appearance. To look less like that monster that raised me. Now I say that little boy. A smile tugged at my lips seeing his little face with so much power in it. He was a confident little shit and would grow up to be a man that did what he wanted. No one would keep him back, build him up just
