Kiara's POV:By the look on Dean's face, he's not too happy about it. Guess I'll have to explain this later to him. There's no time for it now. Sean brought my Subaru here today and we need to get the fuck out of here, and Dean sure shouldn't be caught with me here. With his black Lambo I know he'll get fast out of this anyway.I watch him drive off, before actually clutching my foot down on the pedal myself, while Sean was already yelling at me to get away from here.Half an hour later, I drop Sean off at his home, before heading to the garage for my Subaru myself. It's only a couple of streets away from home and to be honest I'm glad to have a small walk in the fresh evening air, to clear my head, before reaching that place.Dean now knows quite a bit more about me now. This weekend definitely has changed a lot. How will things be at work for us now? We were clear about it, keeping it a secret for a while until we both know this is what we really want.Did Dean get home safe? I deci
Dean's POV:Getting up in the morning, I can't help but chuckle at the thought of how Kar would be moaning and groaning now, just because of having to get up. The both of us are polar opposites and yet somehow the same. Our working morals are the same. The passion is the same, and even some ways to react and think are the same. Maybe that's why we are so explosive, just like I would never back down. She would never do it either, driving me insane.When she called me yesterday evening, I was on the verge of looking into her file, to find out where she lives, or call David if he still had her address. Knowing she was out there in the dark was bad enough, but then in those clothes.... Next time, I'll make sure to bring a blanket I can wrap her in.My god she looked hot as fuck. There was something off about her though at the end of the call. I couldn't quite put my finger on what it was, but something changed. What ever it was, if I notice it again, I'll make sure to find out.My whole
Dean's POV:She rolls her eyes. "Sure, it's part of my job to know these things. I've seen the articles and pics from us. They are also spread all over social media. I woke up to my phone beeping non-stop this morning, with people texting me about it.""So what do we do about it?""We knew we were in for it the moment we caught the paparazzi. I mean, you said they do that with every girl you're being seen with, right?""Yeah, but these pics were different. I mean, it's clearly to be seen that there is some kind of chemistry between us. And god, I hate they got those bikini photos from you or us dancing at the club."She goes pale all of a sudden. Obviously, she hadn't seen everything. "Bi- bi- bikini photos from me?" She stutters."Yes, I'm so sorry. I had no idea about them until I saw them myself this morning. I could sue them to take them down, but I suppose that would only catch more attention. Especially as I have never ever reacted to any photos taken in the past.""How bad are
Dean's POV:Dean's POV:I didn't get to see Kiara all through the day. Work kept hold of me most of the day, but also Kiara didn't seem to have time. Of course, I heard the talks in the hallway, and I suppose she did too. Trish seemed to be everywhere where the gossip was. Seriously, why the hell do I even pay her to be here?She better keep her mouth shut. Otherwise, I will really end up firing her. That girl has done enough damage as it is.Once all the other office lights are off, I decide to finish off my work and stroll over to Kiara's office. After all, I still have her clothes in the boot, and I wanted to talk to her."Hey Kar, you alright?" I ask as I see her face hanging low while stemmed onto her fists. She doesn't respond. "Kar?" I ask once more, and her head bobs up, tearing her out of wherever her mind was.Between her ellbows, I see her phone on the table and wonder if it has anything to do with the photos?"Sorry, I didn't catch you coming in. Did you say something?"No
Dean's POV:In the morning, there is still no message from Kiara and reaching the parking deck, I start panicking. Her car is nowhere to be seen. Reaching the offices, I check her office first, but the lights are still off and no sight of her. Looking at my watch, I know it's still early, but Kiara is always here before me.Ok, it's only been a little over a week now, and then she might have just gotten caught up in the traffic. When I head across to my office, Gina already comes walking over to me, bringing me a coffee."Thanks Gina", and as always, her eyes are oggling me, and she is close to drooling. At least unlike Trish, Gina knows to keep her distance.Just as I'm about to enter my office, she stops me. "Oh Dean, Ms Summers called", my heartbeat starts racing immediately. "She says she's going to be late, as she needs to see the doctor, but she will be in as soon as possible.""Thanks for the information, Gina."For a moment, I think about asking her if she knows the reason, bu
Kiara's POV:"Why the hell is your fucking ex boyfriend sat on your stairs? Is he the reason you've been staring at your phone all the time yesterday? Don't think I've been stupid enough, not to notice that you're shielding messages from me. Is there something between the two of you again?"Is he fucking serious? My head is pounding and I sure don't have the power to go through this fight right now. Despite the fact that Brad is sitting on the stairs."Of course, there's nothing. I hate that piece of shit. Didn't you just hear me calling him a cheating piece of shit? Please, my head is pounding. I just need to get to bed. Thanks for taking me back."With that, I open the door and step out of the car. I probably should have turned around and kissed him goodbye. But right now, all that I want to do is to vanish. What I didn't expect was Dean to step out of his car too and walk up behind me as Brad, on the other hand, approaches me.Great, just great.As soon as we are all face to face,
Kiara's POV:"Leave my George in peace," my mum cries out and starts slamming her palms down on Dean's back. "Kiara, help your dad," she demands from me as I'm still standing there, watching in total disbelief about what is happening right in front of my eyes.Dean gets up, only pushing my mum back slightly to keep her at distance. "And you?" He hisses at her. "What kind of mother are you to leave your injured daughter lying unconcious on the floor? Don't you care, she could have been dead?""She should have simply stayed out of our business. And if she hadn't been whoring around with you, her boss," she snarls, "we wouldn't have had that trouble in the first place. She causes nothing but trouble, always has. Getting into things which are none of her business. So one way or another she had it coming." My mum's words cut so deep, I feel like someone has just stabbed me.She's never been the loving and caring kind of mother. And yet, she came to me so many times after my dad had beaten
Kiara's POV:A little dazed I can hear people motioning around me and quiet but hushed voices speaking."So what's wrong with her, Dr. Pierce?""Don't worry too much, Dean. She has a bad concussion. She should have been resting. You said she had passed out and yet worked all day?""Yes, she said she was fine and only needed to take it a little more easy. Damn, I could see she wasn't well, I should have made her take the day off.""Her muscles are all extremely tense too, even although she's passed out. I have the feeling she is under a major distress right now, only making things worse. If she works as hard as you do, she might be overdoing it.""She does, but I think that's not the reason. She collapsed after being kicked out by her parents.""Oh, I see. Care to share more information? Maybe we should put her up for psychiatric care?"Even with the little power my body seems to provide right now, I can feel the anxiety in me rising and the will to escape as fast as I can."It's not d
****12 years later****Dean's POV:"Dad, why the fuck am I not allowed to go to the party?" Phoebe whines and there's no doubt where she's got her language from."Because I said no. You're seventeen. You're not going to some party where the guys are just waiting to get you drunk and do things with you." "Damn dad, I'm seventeen and a half, so in half a year, I'm legal and can do whatever I want. Besides, you know exactly I can't do shit. You'll know exactly what I'm doing anyway.""Yes, the last time I had to see you kiss some guy as newest tweet from some stupid tabloid. And I'm sure not having that again." For years, I hated the media showing so much interest in our kids. Now, for the first time, I can see the perks of it as our kids can't do shit without us not knowing. Or them at least being afraid of getting caught."Damn, it was just a kiss. I didn't fuck him or anything. He didn't even touch me.""If he had, he'd be a dead man by now." I grit out, not even wanting to think abou
**** 3,5 years later****Kiara's POV:From my shaded place at the pool, I take a glance over to my husband. The way his muscles flex along his broad worked out shoulders is ever so delicious. God, how can someone look so incredibly good and mouth-watering? He turns around, and his toned chest and abs are right on view for me. The way his wet shorts cling to his body showing every well-built leg muscle, too. It definitely has my heat rising.His hands run through his wet hair while he clears his throat once he's standing in front of me. Damn, the way the water is drizzling down every perfect shaped and toned muscle on his body. And those wet, full, soft lips which are now twisting into a crooked smirk."Honey, if you keep on looking at me like that, I'll never finish preparing for Wyatt's birthday party in two hours. Jeez, just the look on your face turns me on like hell.""It's not my fault you had to jump into the pool and look so incredible delicious," I defend myself."Sorry, I nee
Kiara's POV: ****nearly 1,5 years later****My dreamy eyes linger on my two toddlers in front of the Christmas tree, while Dean is trying to convince them to play with the toys he so proudly chose but now aren't of interest to any of them. Instead, they are having hell of a fun playing with the wrapping paper. "Why the hell did I spend so much money on toys if all they want is some stupid wrapping paper?" Dean complains while walking up to me. Dean is such an adorable dad, and my heart swells every time I see my three loved ones playing together."I told you they don't need all of this fancy stuff and the amount of toys you bought. You went a little crazy again, didn't you?""I just want them to be happy and have everything they wish for." The expression on his face is a little sulky while looking across the floor to Phoebe and Leo. Phoebe, in the meantime, finds it awfully funny to put the sticky ends on to her brother and hiding his face under the wrapping paper."They're not even
Hi dear reader, if you have come this far, I want to thank you from the bottom of my soul for reading and supporting me with this book. As a new writer, it means the world to me.I do know that I have put you on hell of a roller coaster with this book. Due to my brain tumour, I also know there are still errors in grammar and spelling. But I hope you can look past them and enjoy the story.If you've enjoyed the book (including hating it at times), it would mean an awful lot to me if you could vote for this book. And of course, every gem you give is like a gem to my heart.At this point, it's only the epilogue left to come. As it's turned out freaky long (nearly 6,5k words), it will be divided into 3 parts.THANK YOU!!!!I hope to see you on future books perhaps, too.Lots of love Jackie♥️♥️
Kiara's POV:Once I've made sure to show my appearance nearly everywhere once, I take my time to fully take in everything here. This place is a huge mansion, and the garden is amazing. I've never seen anything like it. It's like a huge sculptured park with all kinds of flowers everywhere. The air is filled with a sweet scent of the roses and lavender. I love lavender. There are secret hideouts, fountains, a lake, and huge old trees, giving this place a romantic look as if it were from another century. Nancy obviously went all out on the decorations, too. I can see fairy lights everywhere, which are probably meant to light up the garden in the evening. Flower bouquets are spread throughout the area, torches put up for the night, huge ribbons, and other kinds of decorations wherever you look. We're so lucky with the summer weather, making it perfect. It's warm, but the many old trees give us enough space for people being able to stand and sit in the shade.This looks like a fairy tale
Kiara's POV:,"You're so god damn beautiful, Mrs Arlington." Dean whispers full of awe against my lips before drawing fully back. I love the way that sounds.People around us start laughing and cheering even more at Dean's eager kiss. Neither of us wanted to break out of it. He noticed right away when my legs had reached their limit, and now I'm in his amazing, strong arms. Arms, which make me feel treasured and protected in every single way.Sean was the only one who knew about me wanting to walk down the aisle. He rushes down the other end, where I have left my wheelchair behind, and he gets it for me. Tyler uses his chance to squeeze us first, and I literally mean squeeze because what he's doing right now isn't hugging. He's squeezing the living shit out of us."Air, Tyler. I need air." I manage to get out totally breathless while being squashed between Dean and him. "We're not a hamburger, and I'm not the piece of meat in between.""Oh, beautiful, but I wouldn't mind you being the
Dean's POV:And then she appears with Sean at her side. My heart stops for a second, as I don't just see my absolutely stunning bride, but also see how she gets up out of her wheelchair. Oh my god, she starts walking towards me, secured by Sean's arm. Step by step, she comes closer.Everyone around us is gasping at her sight."Holy fuck!" Tyler exclaims.I feel the urge to rush up to her and carry her the rest of the way here. I can clearly see she is struggling, but also how determined she is to walk her way up to me. She must have trained more than I knew. I had no idea she was able to walk again at all. Tears start rolling down my cheeks at my incredible bride.She's so strong, and seeing her walk totally knocks the breath out of me. Besides, she is absolutely stunning. Beautiful, sexy all in all beyond imagination. The dress she is wearing is beautiful too. As soon as she's in front of me, I can't hold back and wrap my arms around her and cry. I don't care what the people think,
Dean's POV:The last couple of hours have been torture. No scratch that ever since she left the house yesterday at lunchtime has been a torture. Damn, it's only been a little over 24 hours, and I'm missing her like hell. At least I had Phoebe and Leo during the daytime yesterday, while Gale took Kiara for a spa. But since Gale picked up my babies last night, I missed them all so incredible much.Tyler and Chris wanted to go for a strip club. No way was I up for that. I don't want to see any other woman naked in front of me, other than my own girl. To my surprise, Tyler even wasn't too pushy about it and quickly understood. Of course, he had a remark about it."Honestly, man, if I had Kiara at home, I wouldn't want to see any other chick naked again either. She's the jackpot, and no sexy stripper could keep up to that. Fuck, I'd never let her out of the bed again and fuck her until she couldn't walk and keep it going." Yes, he did get a smack for that from me.The thing with Tyler is,
Kiara's POV:Only minutes later, I hear the knock at the door Nancy and Gale have arrived. Apparently, Nancy has already been to our location where we're marrying, making sure everything is being prepared as it should be. She scares the shit out of me when she yells through the phone because the wedding cake hasn't been delivered yet. And there was me thinking I could be a badass and impatient.Gale gives me a huge smile and hug. "How are you feeling, darling?""Excited and nervous," I lower my voice for only her to hear. "And a little scarred of Nancy, to be honest." Gale looks across to Nancy, who is still yelling orders through the phone and laughs."You should have heard her ramble away beforehand. She was beyond pissed because the table clothes apparently now are an off-white instead of an eggshell white like she had ordered. Honestly, I couldn't tell the difference, but for her, it was a huge disaster, and she's saying the whole colour scheme has been messed up through it. She's
