Trinity has not stirred yet; she has been under for what seems like endless hours.
The pain that I am holding deep in the depths of my heart with the thoughts that this might just be it they have been haunting me with every ticking second.
I know that it is not good for my soul to think that I have lost her for certain this time, but reality has that nagging ability to bring fear into your life, reminding you that karma is a bitch and that she is always hiding around the corner.
Though, there is one thing that this bitch does not know, is that I am Colton Cruz.
I might have that fear that Trinity is breathing her last breaths, but I am yet not near close enough to accepting it.
So as this incredibly, and I need to remind myself to fire his fucking ass, but yes, he has just given her some more morphine as I settle for the next hour.
Now Jax and Mason have tried their best to move my ass, and King nearly did win his attempt, but there is no wa
…Trinity POV…To say that I have not hit a new depth of stupidity in these past few weeks would be a total understatement. From wanting to blow Colton’s brains out to actually blowing a hole through his wall. That can easily be described as the most insane thing that any woman can set her mind to, regardless of which world it is that she finds herself in.Now, should I want to try and find the most logical answer for doing any of them, I cannot come to one single one.Why do I hate Colton so much?Even more important…why do I want to kill him?For the Stone Empire?Well, yes, there is that. But that alone should not want to justify putting myself in such danger, for I, after all, have a string of men that will do it for me within an eye wink. Is it perhaps that I wish to want to do it myself?Why would I want to hurt Colton so bad?The man that is sitting here next to me and has not let go of my hand
If my mind thought it was deceiving it, my eyes are telling me that I surely am not.Trinity has just opened those goddamn beautiful brown eyes and said one single word that brings all the joy in the world to me.So it is with a tiny jolt of energy back into my bones that I can barely stop myself from hugging her so tightly.“God, princess. You have no idea I am happy to see that sparkle in your eyes again.”She only but tries to chuckle, but the pain makes her body cringe as she cries out in agony. It breaks my heart and slices my soul open, but the solace that she is awake is the only thing that matters.“Princess…”She immediately interrupts me; under a strained breath, she starts to speak softly, “Colton, I owe you such a great apology; I don’t know what came over me. I was so mad with fury after you left me hanging like that.”“Well, I will never do that again; next time, I w
We all know that our time in this world is limited and that eventually, all of us will end up underneath some sheet, never to wake up. And yet, it is always a surprise when it happens to someone we know. It is like walking up the stairs to your bedroom in the dark and thinking there is one more stair than there is.Right now, it feels like there are no fucking stairs as I look at Trinity lying helpless under a goddamn sheet that is stained in nothing but blood.I cannot stop repeating how I can simply not be without her.And I think that Mason can see that I am about to hit rock bottom as he slowly comes walking over to me, “Hey, let’s take a walk outside. Jax can keep an eye on her.”Very reluctantly, I rise from the cold floor where I have not moved for the past hours. My heart hesitates, for I do not want to leave her. What happens if I leave and she…God, I don’t even want to think about it.“Five min
What's the Future? It's a blank sheet of paper, and we draw lines on it, but sometimes our hand is held, and the lines we draw aren't the lines we wanted.That is life, isn't it? Fate. Luck. Chance. A long series of what-if's that lead from one moment to the next, time never pausing for you to catch your breath, to make sense of the cards that have been handed to you. And all you can do is play your cards and hope for the best because, in the end, it all comes back to those three basics. Fate. Luck. Chance.Well, I am not a fucking poker player.But, ya…Life is also a collection of moments, some good and some bad; they ultimately form the puzzle of your life. There is someone who has stood in the same dark place, that the very same puzzle as you. It's okay not to be okay sometimes. Sometimes, it's normal, healthy, and necessary to feel defeated, so you know what it's like to rise another time.This, too, shall pass. This situation isn't you
In a strange way, I feel calm, it has taken eight days of touch and go, but she seems to be okay, and she will stay okay. That is the only thing I needed to hear from the Doctor today.But first, I know of a little woman that needs a good spanking, for she has just slapped me on my ass. Before she even knows what I am doing, I throw her over my shoulder and start to carry her out of the kitchen to the bedroom. She kicks and wiggles as best as she can, but I hold her firmly in place."Colton." She softly whispers. "Put me down.""Sorry, I cannot do that."She squirms, and she moans, "I have two feet. I can walk.""Nah,” I only but chuckle, “I am not letting you get away."I take her into the room and drop her down onto the bed. Her body bounces, and she nearly falls off from the side. I go to catch her, and I lay down comfortably next to her."I love you, but for slapping my ass..." I pull her closer into my arms, "Now plea
…Trinity POV…Do I know what I am doing?Not the slightest bit at all.Can I answer Colton’s question?No.So causing a much-needed diversion, I take Colton's hand, I slide it up my thigh, slipping his fingers under the seams of my dress, his other hand gripping tight onto my waist. My hand is moving up his leg, my fingers gently grazing his hard length. His body is trembling as he moves his hand further under my skirt. I am becoming a wet mess, my body aching for him to be between my legsHe spins me around and pushes my chest hard into the wall, pinning my hands firm above my head. He is grinding his aching groin deep into my ass. He scrunches up my dress and shoves the material all the way up to my waist. When he catches a glimpse of my naked ass, a groan escapes his lips.Then, all at once, there is nothing else in my universe but Colton kissing, touching, biting, and exploring every inch of my body with his mo
It is time.Who will be stepping up for the Stone Crime Family?I am not truly married to Trinity yet. So in all fairness, it should be hers to take. However, we have been unable to come to a decision. Trinity does fear what such a responsibility will bring. It will not only put her as my direct opposition, but it will put her in more danger than I wish her to be.So we find ourselves, Trinity, me, and the rest of my men, standing in the kitchen. We need to come to a conclusion today, as there are a rather great amount of King’s men lurking in the shadows just waiting to see what will be happening.To say that I have never seen Trinity so scared is only but an understatement, so I pull her back closer to my chest and wrap my arms around her tiny body. Then I softly whisper in her ear; the mere tickle of my warm breath sends her body shivering. Yet, “Princess, everything will be okay.”“Colton, what if they don’t want t
So, we are finding ourselves standing in the kitchen discussing the one thing that we all have left on the back burner for a while now, and since things are back to where it should be with Trinity and me, well I guess it is time to get rid of the only man that stands in the way of our happiness. King. Now the man has gone rather quiet since he had heard what he has been up to since the last time that he so casually invited himself in my home. He is a thorn in not only my side, but he is a threat to Trinity. She has suggested that we hit his warehouse. Well, I can say the girl impresses me, for I would only have taken that afterward. Mason, on the other hand, is finding this amusing, “Boss, why did you not think of this, or were you too tied up at the moment when your brain was present?” “Mason, in fact, my brain was not present, and you better fucking run before I get behind that counter.” Just as I am about to
In front of me is a very clear nervous Trinity that is just about to faint at this very second, slightly half unable to breath as she waits in anticipation for anyone so brave enough to object. So after what seems the longest minute of my life, the priest returns his gaze to her. She only grunts at him from underneath her breath, “I suggest you skip that question.” “All right then...Colton, do you take Trinity to be your wedded wife, to have and to hold from this day forward...” Trinity only but growls at him again, ”Can you please skip that part too?” “As you wish...Colton, do you take Trinity as your wedded wife?” “I do.” “Trinity, do you take Colton as your wedded husband?” “I do.” “By the power invested in me, I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss the bride.” And with that being said, that tear that tickled my eye has now rolled down my face. So as we get lost in this mom
…Trinity POV… The time has come for me to turn the corner. The time has come for me to make my bridal walk towards the man that I will be spending the rest of my life with. This is the very last moment that I can still decide to do this and turn around and run. But as I peek my head around to where he is standing at the altar, I know that I am exactly where I want to be. With a very nervous Ava behind me, I am being urged on to make my bridal walk down a carpet that is covered with, yes, much to Colton's horror; it is covered in pink rose petals. But first Ava pulls at my hair and checks my dress, and I have a quick look at my make-up. Ava then looks at me, "Now let us get this wedding on the way." I take one step forward and then another, short and hesitant, but slowly to my future. Then the wedding march starts playing, and I know that it is time to go. So I slip in that corning in absolute elegance. At first, my eyes lie
…Trinity POV… What I feared has happened, Ava has dragged me into her room just before sunrise to start getting me ready for a wedding that is only happening in eight hours. By the looks of her, it seems that she has not slept a wink. So I refrain from making any comments and allow her to pull at my head in every direction to get the perfect do that, as she says, will complement my face and, of course, my dress. After what seems like at least three hours, she looks at me very satisfied in the mirror and nod at her creation. Next is my wedding dressing, now if I thought that this would be easier, well, it is an understatement. If it is not bad enough that they cannot tuck my breasts in properly, which seems to have grown overnight, they try to move my belly into the perfect spot. With only but an hour two spare, they slip into their dresses, and we look at each other, then of course she says something, and there goes my make-up down my
Before sunset tomorrow, I will be married to the love of my life. To say that I am not a wreck would be a complete understatement. I do believe that I have told this once before, yet, again, I need to stop for one moment and take a step back, for, beyond all the craziness that fill our lives, I need to allow myself to remember what drives me. What makes this all worthwhile is the beauty that lies in my arms. Should I not have had her presence in my life, I would not have had the sheer willpower to take the impossible on. To have beauty in your life is easy, but to have the beauty of the woman that you love and the one that loves you in return is the greatest gift that one can experience. I can, with all honesty, say that there is no doubt that she completes my life. To be lonely for eternity can be seen as a life sentence, but having what you crave, is the greatest blessing. I have never been more assured to have chosen her to be mine for life. I
After we bid our farewell to everyone, my intention is to retire to my room and not to leave it at least for another day. And I do see the same sentiment on my princess's face. But what I also noticed is that cheeky smile that is starting to rise at the corner of her lips. In such a strange time, I become aware of her arousal. "Princess, I do believe that you possess somewhat of a dilemma..." "Colton." "Yes, Princess?" "You shall possess your own dilemma if you wish to continue your sentence." So it is in awe as I watch her make elegant strides as she ascends the stairs. She moves every curve to perfect precision, her hips rock from side to side, and it peaks my arousal. I have to fight the desire to pull her back and take her right at this very moment. I can so easily push her petite frame into this very wall that is presenting itself at the perfect timing, and that is exactly what I intend on doing. It is as i
Today is the day. It might as well be my wedding day, for I feel that I am near damn going to faint.So Trinity slammed me back with a condition of her own. If I want to get married, then she wants to have some dreadful engagement party. Well, I think I am nearly going to die; for a second time, I need to go down on my knee and ask her for her hand in marriage. So, while she is running around for what is the fifth dress to wear now, I sit in a silent chuckle as I find it rather amusing. Now all of them are all white; the first thing she so kindly pointed out to me is that you get different shades of white; well, that does not seem obvious to me at all. The second thing is that my blue shirt is not matching her white dress. Now I should have never asked her if it is the right kind of white, for I had some kind of white stilettos come flying my way. "Princess, how much longer are you going to take?" "Just give me five more minutes." S
…Trinity POV… Colton grips me by the hips and crushes my body into him; with one loud growl, he lifts my feet from the floor and carries me backward toward the bed. We are kissing like crazy. Like our lives depend on it. His tongue slips inside my mouth, gentle but demanding, and it's nothing like I've ever experienced; every square inch of my body dissolves into his. My fingers grip his hair, pulling him closer. My veins throb, and my heart explodes. I have never wanted anyone like this before. My body falls back into the sheets; Colton leans over me and centers me on the bed before he settled on top of me. I feel him, all of him, pressed against me; I feel his cock throbbing against my thighs, his heart beating through his sculpted chest, his warm breath lingering on my skin.He feels fucking amazing. He continues downward until his lips are locked around my quivering nipple, his tongue circling the swollen tip. His hand strokes t
Before she can protest, I pull her against the depths of my chest. I take in a deep breath and press her even deeper. "Princess, I want to own you, possess you, body and soul." Instead of answering, she reaches out to me, putting her small, warm hand on the back of my neck. Then she kisses me, first lightly, then more urgent. Her hips are tilted against mine; her breasts are against my chest; her whole body is sending a message that is undeniable. Then she nibbles my ear, touching my face softly with her fingertips, and she whispers, "Mr. Cruz, you are mine." "Oh, princess," I gasp as she takes another deep breath and pushes me back into the chair behind me. So I sit back into the chair and watch as her hands travel up her body; she caresses her exposed skin. Then she slides her hands to cup her breasts, rolling her nipples between her fingers. She brushes her brown hair away from her face as she turns and allows her hands to explore h
…Trinity POV…In front of me, I have Colton on his knees.Who is more scared at this very moment is left to be seen. But apart from the fear of the unknown, not knowing what to say next, I know that there is only one thing in life that I care about the most.And that is Colton.So I gently take his face between my hands and whisper to him,"Now it is your turn to keep quiet."With one deep, swallowed breath, I find the words that have never been so easy to roll from my lips."Colton, you are the only precious thing in my life.I hold close to my heart. There's no moment that I don't think about you. I've always wished to experience that kind of love shown in movies, not knowing I was a step closer to experiencing it. It's so great to finally have someone as beautiful as you are to enjoy life with. You're my push, my strength, my best friend, and my fighter. You've seen me at my worst and terrific moments and watched me cry on the
