The next morning, I woke up to find that Damian was already up cooking breakfast. It smelled amazing. I got out of the back of the truck and walked over to him. He was sitting at the picnic table looking at the map. I walked up and wrapped my arms around him.
"Good morning," I said, as I kissed him on the cheek.
“Good morning baby girl. How did you sleep?"
"I slept well actually. The air mattress is pretty comfy."
"Yeah, it's not too bad."
"So, what's our next stop?"
"Well, we're going to go across Tennessee over to Arkansas. We'll probably stay the night in Arkansas and finish the drive tomorrow. I want to arrive after my cousins have left for school. I know my aunt and uncle are going to have questions. I figured it would be better to explain this without worrying about the kids hearing."
"That's fine. Will I have to use

Ophelia's Bodyguard Chapter 30
Ophelia As we drove through the small town in Texas, my heart started racing. I was so nervous about meeting his family, but I was even more nervous about what they would say if we told them the real reason we were here. Damian pulled off the main highway and onto a gravel road.Both sides of the driveway were lined with wooden fences. On one side there were horses and on the other side there were cows. "Damian." "Yeah?" "Can we maybe not tell your family why we're really here," I asked timidly. He pressed the brake and brought the truck to a stop, put it in park and looked at me, "Why?" "I really don't want to tell them right now. I mean, I want them to know me first before finding out why we are here or who I am. I mean, what if they get pissed off that we came down here?" "They won't get pissed off. If you don't want to tell them, that's fine. I'll

Damian I grabbed a few of the handguns out of the bag and walked out of the closet back into the major section of the cabin. I placed a gun in the drawers in the kitchen, one on either side of the counter, and placed another one in the drawer on the island. I walked into the living room and placed a gun in the drawer on the coffee table then went into the laundry room and placed a gun in the cabinet above the washing machine. It might be overkill, but you can never be too safe. I walked out of the laundry room and went over to the couch, kicked off my boots, pulled my gun from behind my back, and set it on the coffee table. I laid down on the couch. I felt exhausted even though we had stopped a few times along the way down here. I slept very little last night. Once Ophelia put away clothes, she came out into the living room and sat down in the recliner. I looked over at her and motioned for her to come here. She got up f

OpheliaThe next morning Damian’s alarm on his phone went off at 5:00 am. He got out of bed and walked into the bathroom, took a shower, brushed his teeth, then got dressed. I sat up in bed, resting my head on the headboard, and turned the TV on. My eyes widened and my jaw dropped when I saw Damian walk out of the bathroom wearing his jeans, a gray t-shirt, his boots, and a black cowboy hat.I had never seen him in a cowboy hat before. Damn, he looked good. He saw me staring, and a smirk came across his face, “See something you like?”I bit my bottom lip and nodded my head. He walked over to the side of the bed and hovered over me. I wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled him closer, placing my lips on his. He pulled back and kissed the tip of my nose, “I’ll see you tonight baby girl.”“Do you have to go?” I pouted.He placed another kiss on my forehea

DamianI hated to leave Ophelia alone, but Itold Joe that I would help him around the ranch and that’s what I was going to do. Joe was already up and waiting when I got to the main house. I grabbed a cup of coffee and we sat out on the back porch talking about what he wanted to do today. We were going to be moving the cows from one pasture to another, giving the horse fresh hay, and cleaning out the barn. We were going to be running the fence and checking for any spots that needed to be fixed. We were also going to work on getting a site ready for the next barn he was going to build.A couple of the ranch hands showed up, and we went to the barn to get the horses saddled. I was so excited to see Browning. Joe had been taking good care of him, he looked healthy and happy. I put his bridle on, walked him out of the stall and tied him up. I ran a brush over him and checked for any sores then grabbed the saddle pad

MitchSeveral weeks had passed since I sent Ophelia into hiding. I was confident that she was in a good place and no harm would come to her.I had Jax call the pilot and get the plane ready. I packed a suitcase with enough clothes for the week, then we left the compound and flew to New York City. Later in the day, Noah and Oliver would fly down to New York also for the reopening of Jonol. The renovations were complete, and Liam planned to have a huge reopening party. I was looking forward to spending some time in New York. The house had been so quiet without Ophelia; it reminded me of when she got kidnapped, and that was not something I enjoyed being reminded of. I needed to get out of the house for a while, so I went to handle some business at the office.When we got to New York, Jax and I got into the car that was waiting, while the rest of the security split off into the Knights and followed us. We drove over to t

Liam When I left the club, I knew exactly where I wanted to go. I stopped by my apartment and packed some clothes. I went over to my safe, pulled out all the cash that I had and my passports. I tossed my old phone in the safe and grabbed the other burner phones I had. I put everything in a duffle bag, went downstairs, got in my car, and drove to the airport. I knew I wouldn’t be able to use the private plane, so I used one of the fake IDs that I had to purchase the plane ticket to Russia.I’ll admit, I was a little nervous about going to Russia. Ivankov was pissed after the massacre of his men at the papermill, and Viktor wasn’t too happy about the head he received. But I hoped that they would still help me. After a twelve-hour flight, I arrived in Russia. I got off the plane, grabbed my bags, and walked out of the airport. I called a taxi and gave him the address to Ivankov’s compound.&

Ophelia The next few days seemed to drag on. I had so many thoughts running through my head, but I had no one to talk to about them. With Sam and Noah now dating, I knew I couldn’t talk to her about Liam. I also knew I couldn’t talk to Damian about Liam either. He would flip out if he knew I had talked to Liam. I was so confused. Ever since I talked to Liam, I’ve had knots in my stomach. Part of me believes dad and part of me wants to believe Liam. He had done nothing to hurt me before. While he may not have been as overprotective of me as Noah and Oliver, he had never given me a reason to doubt him. I wanted to sort this out. Neither dad nor Noah was giving me much information, but they never do. It took the accident in Miami to happen before I was even told some of what was going on. They always kept stuff from me. Not that I wanted to be right in the middle of everything going on, but I at

Damian Ophelia told me she was going to the store today, so when she left, I thought nothing of it. A few hours passed, and I had not seen her come back. I tried calling her, but she didn’t answer. She always answers my calls. I sent her a text and still nothing. I went back to the cabin. Maybe I missed seeing her pass. She was not in the cabin. I called her again, but still no answer. I called again, still no answer. My heart rate was rising as I thought of all the things that could be wrong.I sent her a text, but no reply. I called her again, no answer. I was in full panic mode. Something was wrong. This was not like her to ignore my calls or texts. I ran back to the main house and went inside. Mary and Joe were sitting at the island eating lunch, “I need to borrow the truck,” I said with urgency. “What’s wrong?&r

Ophelia's Bodyguard Bonus Chapter II
DamianWhen we got back to the states after deployment, Noah told me to take a few days and go to Texas, then he would pick me up from there and bring me to New York. Noah knew the strained relationship I had with my family in Texas. But he insisted on me going down there.I went to Texas for a few days and stayed in the cabin on the ranch property. Despite everything that had happened in the past, most of my family was happy to see me. I hadn't been home since I left to join the Army. Of course, Tyson and I still were not on good terms, but none of that mattered.After catching up with everyone, I finally called Noah and told him I was ready to go to New York. He told me to give him a few hours and he would be down to get me.I met Noah at the airport and was surprised because they had their own private jet. He told me that Nathan and Brad had also accepted the job and we would pic
Ophelia's Bodyguard Bonus Chapter I
DamianGrowing up in Texas was outstanding. I was an only child and spent most of my childhood working with my father on our ranch. We had a large ranch in West Texas with horses and cattle. Every day after school I would hurry home to help dad tend to the animals or round up the cattle. We spent our weekends repairing fencing around the ranch or working on the new barns we were building.As I came into my teen years, I had some trouble in school. It took little for me to get in a fight. I'm still not sure why I was like that. My parents were on the way to the school to speak with the principal about my behavior. A few hours after my parents dropped me off with my aunt and uncle, two officers showed up at their house.That was the day my entire world came crashing down around me. While they were on the way to the school, a drunk driver crossed the white line and hit my parents' truck head on. The ac
Ophelia's Bodyguard Epilogue
Ophelia2 Years later:Looking at my reflection in the mirror, I could not believe it was finally happening. Today was the day I married the man of my dreams. The man who has protected me and fought for me. The man who brings me peace and comfort. I never expected to fall in love with my bodyguard, but Damian wasn't just any bodyguard. He was my everything, and I could not wait to be Mrs. Damian Blackman. I chose a very elegant dress made of lace and tulle with a modern fit and flared silhouette with a gorgeous lace train. The sweetheart neckline and natural waistline complimented my figure perfectly. There was beading and latticework on the bodice, while sequins and the addition of silver and ivory beading added to the dress. The sexy silhouette finished with a chapel length train and a lace hemline.All my girls were with me, including Lana. She has become such a great

Damian I brought Ophelia to one of the rooms and told her to rest then made my way to the bottom deck. We only had a few more hours before we would be ready to leave Russia and finally go home. When I walked onto the deck, I saw Mitch talking to Oliver and Noah. "Hey Boss." "Damian, how's your shoulder?" "It's good. I'm sorry about Jax. What happened?" "Yeah, me too. But Nathan and Oscar missed a sniper and Jax was killed when he came from behind one of the containers.""How the hell did they miss a sniper?" "According to them, when they scanned the first time, they only saw one sniper. Once Jax gave the signal, they took out that sniper. I'm guessing the other sniper was hiding somewhere because after the sniper was down a little while later, we started getting hit with another one. That's what happened to Andrew and

Mitch I watched as the men cleaned up the mess that was left from the fight with Ivankov. The concrete was stained red from the amount of blood that flowed over it. Oliver had taken charge and was barking out orders and making sure that everyone was doing what needed to get done. It had been a little while since the response team left the port to assist the team at the compound. Everything had been silent on their end and I was not sure what was going on. I was anxiously waiting to hear something from them. Once Oliver had given out orders, he walked over to me, “So what do you want to do with Liam and Ivankov? Are you planning to take them back to the states?” “I’m not planning to let them go. They both need to pay for what they have done. Because of them, Jax is dead and several more of our guys are dead.” “Let me handle it. I’ve jus

DamianWhile we waited for the signal, we split off into groups surrounding three sides of the compound. We each had a brick of C4 that we would place on the wall to blow our way into the compound. I had realized that this was not going to be graceful. We were not going to be able to sneak in quietly, we were about to make a lot of noise.“All teams get ready to set bombs,” Noah said over the radio.He kept his eyes on the watchtower to see when the guard turned and when he was facing us. We had to time this perfectly or we would give away our position.I got into position and when Noah motioned, I ran to the wall and placed a brick of C4 on the wall. I waited for Noah to motion again then ran back to the cover of the woods. “Bombs set.” team one and two said across the radio. I breathed a sigh of relief that they were able to set

MitchAmber made sure all the girls knew what to do. She did their makeup so that it looked like they had been beaten and messed up their hair. She told them to keep their heads down so that Liam would not recognize any of them. We loaded the girls into the container and the crane picked it up from the ship and brought it down onto the ground. During our trip, I had the guys outfit the container to make sure the girls would not be harmed when bullets started flying. I knew they were nervous, but they each agreed to play the part.Once everyone was in place, Javier and I got into the backseat of one of the Knights and Jax got into the front seat. We were going to sit in the truck until it was time. We made sure to have everything done before Ivankov and his men showed up.Nathan came across the radio and told us there was a sniper about 500 yards out. He and Oscar were going to take him out as soon a

Mitch We made it to Russia, two days ahead of schedule and were only a few hours from docking. Jax had the men on the bottom deck and was getting ready. They each put on Kevlar vests and the containers emptied quickly as each man armed themselves with weapons and ammo. I placed a call to Jason and told him we were only hours away. It surprised him we would dock early. But I didn’t want to take any chances. I wanted my men in place before Ivankov and his men even arrived. Jax had drawn out plans on where the containers would be placed giving us both an advantage and cover. Nathan and Oscar were busy setting up on the highest point on the ship, giving them the best vantage point. You couldn’t even tell there was anyone up there. Ben launched his drone and flew to the coordinates that Jason had sent of the compound. Once he was overhead, he informed me that there were abou

Mitch The next morning, I woke up to find Amber still in my bed snuggled against my chest. She looked adorable sleeping so peacefully. I carefully got up and went to the bathroom, taking a quick shower, and getting dressed. When I walked out of the bathroom she was still sleeping peacefully. I leaned over and kissed her forehead then walked out of the room. I walked down the hall and to the door that leads outside. When I stepped outside, I could see we were in the channel being brought in by tugboats to the dock. Placing my hands on the rail I looked out over the water towards land. I loved visiting Ireland; the country was beautiful. Should I ever actually retire, this would be where I would want to spend the rest of my days. I turned around and started walking to the bridge. Looking down at the bottom deck, I could see the guys getting the harnesses ready. There were paint buckets and brushes
