    Author note: This is one of my first stories from a free app. It is a bit raw and needs a good edit. I’m going through and fixing this story up to flow better as well as the grammar. I’m leaving the story here so any that had read it already can still access when edits complete. i just wanted to give you a warning before you dive in. My other books are more polished and you can tell by the popularity of them vs this one. I still love this story (I’m bias of course) and I don’t want to trash it. If you want a more completed story line with edits, check out my others. If you like raw books from beginners then please read on. I hope to have the edit version out in a few months, but I’m also working on newer books. Thank you all for you support :)Alley POVI grew up in a small town in the Midwest which seemed to go unnoticed by the rest of the world. It made our little town a perfect place for those with money and power to take advantage of those without. The rich do as they please while

    Ace POVDerek and I just dropped Alley off at home and I was itching to fuck a girl. I know I shouldn't be thinking about Alley's now tan legs or how they led to her perfect ass. I swear she turned from this geeky cute chick to a hot as hell temptress in Europe. Thinking how sexy she looked at the airport made both my dick hard and my anger boil over.While I white knuckled the steering wheel from my frustrations, I tried to think about anything else. I would never use her that way. Never cross that line but I'm 17 and she came home looking hot as fuck. If I can't get the image of her curvy little body out of my head, I can only imagine what every other teenage asshole is thinking. "Want to check out the lake?" I asked Derek. He gave me a knowing smirk, nodding in agreement. Most of the kids from school hung out by the small beach area that was hidden through the woods. There was a path off the side of the main highway that led to an opening. Once the car was parked, we had to walk a

    Ace POVI was exhausted and wanted nothing more than to pass out. I was so happy Alley was finally home, but she had me so irritated all day. Seeing her at the airport this morning nearly gave me a heart attack. I can't believe she was wearing barely any clothes and alone for 6 weeks in Europe like that. I regretted paying her entry fee for that competition. She thought it came from a scholarship for poor kids, but the truth was no one gave a shit about them. She spent so much time studying for it I couldn't see her not even get a shot at it. Now she was back with a whole new attitude. I tried to not let it show how much her confidence pissed me off. Her attitude mixed with that body is going to get her in trouble. What was causing this change though? It was nagging at me all day. It's like she went from a little girl to a woman overnight.Oh fuck! She better not have. It can't be that. My head was swarming with all the ways I would kill whatever boy took advantage of her. No! She

    Alley POVI applied a little red lipstick then blotted my lips taking a final turn in the mirror. I had a white crop top on that covered my shoulders and sat right above my waistline. My blue pleated skirt was a little on the short side but didn't show any of my ass. It was perfectly in line with what Derek and Christian deemed as appropriate attire. The heels on the other hand, they were going to lose their shit over.I rolled my eyes thinking about their reactions then pushed out my door. They weren't going to make me hide anymore. I'm not a slut, but I won't be a scared little mouse either. I needed to be me. I liked wearing skirts and dresses just as much as I liked jeans or even sweatpants. "Seriously!" Derek said, shaking his head at my outfit."Come on bro, I followed all your rules. No shoulders, tits, belly, or ass on display. So don't even dare tell me to change." I said crossing my arms trying to give him a don't fuck with me look. He was always the easier one to get ove

    Alley POV"Are you stupid or just an idiot little girl?" Christian asked spinning me around to face him. Geez, for someone who is supposedly my best friend he was sure laying the insults on thick today."Pretty sure that means the same thing, but I like to think I'm a confident, smart... creative... a fucking awesome little girl. A little girl that so happens to be hot as hell." I said, cocking my head to the side while my eyes slowly traced his face from his eyes to his lips. Then without thinking I brought my chocolate to my mouth, letting my lips slowly brush over the bar before biting all the way down and letting a little moan out. I didn't plan to try and flirt with my best friend, but if he was going to start acting like the rest of these assholes then I would start treating him the same. Christian didn't know how to respond to my flirting and backed up some."You think this is a game?" he said softly. I almost felt bad seeing his mood change from anger to concern but he wasn'

    Ace POVI was livid from Alley's attitude all day. The first day of school and she comes in wearing a skirt with a huge fucking attitude. Then she demands I apologize to her for trying to protect her. Who the fuck does she think she is?I know exactly what every scumbag in this place is thinking. I'm not even ashamed to admit I know because I'm thinking the same thing. Somehow, she turned into this flawless temptress and has a badass attitude to go along with it. It is known that every guy wants to hit the hottest girl and it was even more sexy when they were wild. The need to tame her was a natural part of being a male. At least I think it is. I don't actually know for sure, but I can see in everyone's eyes how they wanted to claim her just like I did. The difference was that I would never let anyone control her that way, not even myself. Every time she walked the halls the guys raked her body up and down, lingering their stares at her breast and ass. The girls were snickering out

    Alley POVAfter our talk on Friday at school things were actually normal. We all hung out last night at the park and it felt so good to just be us again. Derek tried relentlessly to beat the furthest jumper mark. He was right behind Christian's spot, but the other night I beat his. Derek and I had serious competitive issues.I was standing in my bra and underwear switching between black sexy dress or short jean shorts. It was Saturday night, and the guys would be here soon to pick my friends and me up. "I say black dress. You'll look hot. It's sexy but simple so, not too much for the Lake." Layla commented, noticing me struggling to decide on what to wear. She had waist length black hair, dark skin, and mysterious grey eyes. If I ever discovered I'm gay she would be the chick I went after. She was a Junior but since I was in higher classes, we shared a few together. She was from a wealthy family but somehow had decent parents and wasn't like the other entitled snobs. Usually, the adu

    Alley POVAfter driving down a long open road we headed down a dark path into the woods. Are they serious? This was the plot of every scary movie. I was getting a little nervous waiting for the lake to appear when Christian rested his hand on my knee. He leaned in a little closer and whispered to me like a psycho. "Relax Alley Cat, the only monster in these woods is already in the car with you.""You're a jerk." I replied looking from his farm green eyes to his light pink lips. I gave him a smile then leaned my head back to breathe in some fresh air. I loved how they both always knew when I was getting anxious and how to calm me. I honestly didn't know if I could get through life without them. When I was little, I would cry a lot and when I got a little older, I would start to have panic attacks. We were poor as shit and my mother was usually the cause of my tears and anxiety, so I never got any professional help. I didn't need it though, I had Derek and Christian to comfort me, prote

    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
