Grace's POV“Hey,” I smiled as I walked into the kitchen. Adrianna was preparing lunch. “Hey, you should rest. Don said—”“I'm okay. Davis is worried about nothing” I cut her off. I was always lazing around because Don said this and Don said that. “But you're pregnant, Grace. Don said—” “Adrianna…” “Don said the pregnancy is a rare one and any slight mistake can lead to you losing the baby. We cannot afford to put yours and the baby's life at risk” I rolled my eyes. She was saying all this because I picked up the vegetables and wanted to get busy. What's wrong with standing in one spot and slicing vegetables?“Don't mind your Don. Adrianna, I was with Helen's pregnancy, and I did all I needed to do to make sure I earned money for myself and my child. In the rain and under the sun, I struggled, but I didn't lose the baby, so what makes you think we'll lose this one for just cutting vegetables, huh?” “Grace, you're just too stubborn,” Adrianna said to me as she gave up while I had
Davis's POV I stood at the airport waiting for Harry and his family. They had insisted they wanted to see Helen and Grace. Since I couldn't let Grace travel a far journey, Harry and Catherine decided to do us the honor. It was two weeks ago, we moved from Jack's penthouse. We made sure we went very far from the city. We were definitely in New York, but far from it. Yes, I want to take back my position as Don, but I needed to be careful, I wasn't living only for myself anymore. I've decided to wait until Grace delivers the baby. I don't want her to worry about me so much that it affects the baby. I try to give her all that she needs, including myself. But that doesn't mean we're not working.Jack had gone back home, I had to send Gideon back to his gang to keep them in hope and to prepare. The unexpected can happen anytime, and I'll be needing them. My people all over New York, when they heard that their Don was alive, had searched us down to where Gideon was, and I had asked him to
Grace's POV“Position your hand like this, Mummy” Helen said, a little bit pissed that I wasn't getting it right. It isn't my fault, what's easy for her and her father wasn't so easy for me.She has been teaching me how to use knives. I think she is just natural, taking after her father because how can a small child know how to do this so well when I can't. It seems unfair. “But I'm doing just that,” I replied. “You're not. If you are, there is no way you'll miss the target”“But I am” I whined, and she frowned before turning to Vincent who was sitting not too far from where we were. “Uncle Vincent, come and show mummy how to do it. She doesn't know how”. “Honey, you're doing it well. Your mom is not just good at those things. Rather she is good at treating those who get cut by it” he replied without taking the book he was reading from his face. Helen sighed while I frowned at him. He peeped and saw the frown on my face, he smirked, taking his eyes back to his book. “Mummy liste
Raymond's POVI hate the sight of that woman and at all cost, I'll get her to tell me where she hid the fucking girl. It's been years and she was being stubborn. Even to the extent that she risked the life of her own husband. Who does that?Margaret Jones, my fucking mother, I searched for after I left New York. After Godfather Stone made Davis Don instead of me. I was more than worthy to take over the position of Don. How dare he do that to me? I have been by his side even before he knew, the son of a bitch. Did he think I would cover? Sit and watch someone younger take over? Never!It was well planned, calming down to gather allies, power, weapons, and resources. Who dares stand in front of me? I didn't only wait for ten good years, I waited in the hope of one day ruling over New York, and I am here. A dream come true. But I will never let Margaret Jones destroy my plans. All I want is the fucking name of the fucking country she had sent Florida Jones to. The minute I find where s
Davis's POVI stood in front of the mirror as I worked on the buttons of my shirts. The white sleeved shirt, I had worked on, cutting the sleeves off, making the shirt sleeveless. That's what I did to all my sleeve shirts. I hated the inconvenience it caused around my elbow. “Set?” Vincent came out of the bathroom, dressed also in a brown suit. I picked up my black charcoal suit and wore it as well. “All set” I replied. We both just didn't understand why Harry wanted us to do this. Worse was, Harry had forced Vincent when he wasn't even dating anyone. Just yesterday, we were having a discussion when Catherine asked Grace about her last dinner date with me. Grace openly disgraced me, telling everyone in the dining room that I had never taken her out on a dinner date before. Harry took it worse than his wife. I was expecting him to understand since he was a mafia Lord like I am, but the man just couldn't get the silent signs I was giving to him.Harry promised Grace on my behalf th
Grace's POVThere was this unusual joy in my heart as we all sat there in the restaurant. I don't know how the men did it, but it looks like they had booked the entire restaurant for the night. No one was coming in and no one was going out. The place was just for us. Catherine and Harry, Adrianna and Vincent, then Davis and I. The indescribable joy I was feeling was visible even on my face. I couldn't take my eyes off Davis. He was looking so handsome today, I couldn't wait to get back home and undress him. I really do not think he'd mind at all. Harry and Catherine happen to be the best couple I've ever seen because they were just too perfect in this love thing. The way they talked, dressed, and discussed, everything about them makes me envious of them. I'll have to speak to Davis, so we can do this more often. Going out and just having our own time. The food was served by the waiters, instruments were playing in the background. I couldn't see where the people playing those were,
Davis's POV“I can't wait to get home and take his clothes off” I heard Grace reply Harry and my eyes widened. Was she serious? I almost chuckled. Grace's appetite for sex increases as the day goes by, making me wonder if it happens to all women who were pregnant or if it was only Grace. She wasn't even shy to say it, she said it like she owned me and Harry would do as she said. Sorry to burst her bubble, but a dinner date is a dinner date, and it would completely end before we go home, so she'll have to wait till we get home. “You heard the princess. Everyone pack up, we are leaving” Harry announced, causing me to snap my eyes at him, “What?” I asked in shock,“You heard her. She wants you and she'll have you. Now, dinner's over. Get up and let's go home. Your woman wants you in her bed” My eyes moved from Harry to Grace and back to Harry, why do I feel that Grace had a way of controlling Harry? Or am I overthinking? It wasn't like I was complaining but for every of Grace's wishe
Davis's POVAfter the search, it showed that she was clean. I still can't believe she escaped Raymond, he isn't all so perfect after all. While we searched her, we could see the scars all over her body and her clothes were torn."Fuck!" I cursed when I saw her back and thighs. Raymond is a sick bastard to do something like this to his own mother. "We have to take her to the hospital" Vincent suggested and was already pulling her to his car before we could stop him. We allowed him before Grace and I made our way into the car. This time, I drove. She didn't even look at the driver's seat twice and went to sit in the front passenger's seat. Till we got home, she was quiet making me wonder if it was because she had almost hit Margaret. "Are you okay?" I asked as I opened the car for her. She gave me a small smile before coming down. "I think so. I just realized I would have hit her if it hadn't been for your help" she responded as she walked beside me. We both made our way inside the
