Jack’s POV
The worry about Charlotte been alone with Phillip was eating away at me, I needed her to be able to protect herself. I was so worried about losing her, I chose to be the one who stayed and helped her cook. I needed to be close to her, I sent the others away so that I could have some alone time with her. I noticed that she kept giving me odd looks, I knew that she would have picked up that something was wrong. I was just hoping something would come up so that I could point her in the wrong direction. Thankfully Warren brought up her self-defence lessons, I could use the face that I have enemies to my advantage and get her learning to defend herself. I would get Grant to teach her how to shoot as well, then as long as she keeps the gun on her she will be able to defend herself. I was hoping it would only be minutes that we would not be there, but you have to be prepared for the unexpected. I trusted Grant and is his men said that they would protect Charlotte th
Charlotte’s POVLance grabbed my hand and dragged me up to the bedroom. I had not even looked at the dress yet, I wondered what Jack had chosen for me. We arrived and Lance walked straight into the wardrobe and putted out a garment bag. He placed it on the bed and winked at me.“Go on then, open it”I slowly unzipped it and inside was a stunning silver ball gown. It was what I would imagine I would get married it if I ever got the chance for a real wedding. I pulled it out and ran into the wardrobe closing the door behind me. I quickly got dressed and looked at myself in the full-length mirror. You could still see a lot of scars on my arms and chest area, but hopefully by the party they will be all covered with tattoos. I opened the door and motioned for Lance to come in “So what shoes do you think?” I asked while motioning to the row and rows of shoes that Jack had bought me.“Oh my god, this is heaven” Lance gri
Ryan’s POVI tried not to laugh as Lance dragged Charlotte upstairs. Then let out a sigh “She so knows something is going on”“I know, we just have to think it’s a normal threat and nothing to do with her directly”. Jack told us.“It’s good that she will be getting training on how to protect herself. Phillip will not expect her to have a gun, we need to make sure she has it on her at the party”. Grant grinned, I could just imagine the thoughts going through his head. That man was as crazy about guns as he was hacking.“She also needs to be able to get to it, we know that Phillip will tie her up” Jack turned to face me “Can you include how to get out of a robe in your training?”“I will teach her out to get out of any restraints, relax we will make sure she is safe and able to protect herself”. I cared about her too much to risk anything happening to her.
Grant’s POVI watched Charlotte training with Grant, she was doing really well. It took me ages to learn how to escape restrains and even now I struggle. Not that I ever get caught to get tied up. I was trying to figure out a good place for her to hide a gun when we are at the party. Her dress was quite puffy, I was wondering if we could sew a hidden pocket into the back.“Hey Lance” I called out.“What?” He grumbled as he walked over to me “I was having a dance with Warren”“Would you be able to sew a hidden pocked into he back of Charlottes dress?”“Yeah, how big are we thinking?”“Just to fit a small handgun”“Once you have the gun let me know and I will make the pocket to fit and conceal it”“For such a scary looking dude, you really are a bit of a girl” I laughed.He gave me the finger as he walked back to carry on
Jack’s POVGod Charlotte was amazing, she has no problem as all getting out of the handcuffs or the rope. I knew her hands would be sore though. I would have to rub some arnica cream on them to make sure that they do not bruise.“I am going to go talk to Grant” she told me as she gave me a kiss on the cheek.I watched her go and then turned back to Ryan “She did really good today”“She did, I will contact my knife guy and see what knives he has for women. I want her to have a pretty one that she will like”“Ok, use my card to pay for it”“Na man, this is my gift to her. I am happy to pay for it myself”I nodded as I made my way over to Charlotte. I just arrived to hear her sigh “I feel like I am getting trained to be an assassin”“You would be a very cute assassin” I chuckled as I wrapped my arms around her from behind.“Be ca
Charlotts’s POVAfter all the dancing and trying to get out of handcuffs and rope, I was exhausted. I remember Jack carrying me out of the gym and the next thing I knew it was morning. I tried to nudge Jack to wake him up, but he did not even move. I tried blowing in his ear, but all that did was cause him to moan. I glanced under the covers and noticed that he was stood to attention. I grinned to myself as I crawled under the blankets and got myself comfortable between his legs. I licked the tip causing him to lift his hips up. I lifted the blanket to see his face, but he was still fast asleep. I guess I needed to do a proper job to wake him up. I took his whole length into my mouth causing myself to gag. He started to moan as I increased my speed, I used my other hand to stroke his balls. His hips started to move with me, soon I felt his release hit the back of my throat. I gaged again and then swallowed it all and then started to crawl back up him. I noticed he was a
Phillip’s POVI sat waiting for Zac to return with the security back up, I was hoping that I would find out what was going on with doc. After I had been waiting over two hours I was getting pissed off. I was just about to call him to find out where the hell he was when he turned up.“What the hell took you so long” I growled.“Sorry, doc was asking lots of questions”“What did you tell him?” Crap I thought that the doc might have left after us.“That you wanted to notice if there is a pattern of when the husband and wife go to visit Jane as you are interested in the wife”“Good save mate” I laughed “I like how you are quick to think of your feet. I also quite like your thinking and might check that out as well”. I set up my computer and inserted the hard drive “Want to make me a coffee” I called out to Zac who was walking towards the door “Also wh
Ryan’s POVAfter we practiced with the cuffs a couple more I moved on to the rope.“You might get some rope burn” I apologised as I tied her up.“Yeah, but like you keep telling me, what Phillip will do is worse”“That’s my girl” I grin at her “Now you need to be careful as rope unlike handcuffs can pull tighter”I moved her hands to show her how to get out of the rope. If we manage to hide a knife on you that would be better as you would be able to cut your way out”.“Knowing me I will probably end up cutting myself” She grumbled.“No, you won’t, with the right training you will be amazing”. I retied the rope “Now try and get out of it on your own” I told her.She glared at me as she started to slowly move her hands. From the front you could hardly notice her moving. I was impressed with how quick she was picking everyth
Grant’s POVAfter my workout I made my way to the kitchen, I needed coffee, and I needed it now. Ryan was already in the kitchen and was getting started on breakfast.“You, ok?” He asked.“Fucking peachy” I growled as I walked past him and started to make a coffee. Once I made my coffee I went and sat down with the others. Ryan finished cooking and dished everything out, Jack and Charlotte had still not bothered to come down even when we all started to eat. I guess he is allowed to sleep in I grumbled to myself.“So, are we changing our start time from 8 till 9 now?” Ryan laughed once Charlotte and Jack finally decided to grace us with their presence.“Only for some of his staff, others he wakes up at 4am” I growled while taking a bite out of my toast.“What?” Charlotte turned and glared at Jack “You couldn’t sleep so you went and woke up poor Grant”&
Jack’s POV“You!” Charlotte screamed at me “This is all our fault” She screamed as another contraction shook her.“Its ok dear, just push” The midwife told her.“Fuuuuccccck” Charlotte gasped as she pushed.“I can see the first head”Yes, first head, we found out when we went for our first check up that Charlotte was pregnant with twins. Ryan one that bet so one the money that Charlotte got from Phillip and Gavins bank accounts. As for the sex we decided not to find out, so the men are all waiting eagerly. Charlotte told Grant that she did not want the property from Phillip. We have the farm to Doc who is living happily on his own. He opened his own clinic and sees all the locals and charges them a super small fee.“It’s a boy, congrats” The midwife smiled as she called me over and I cut the first cord.“One more boy and I win the house Phillip shared with Jane” Ryan rubbed his hand together.It turns out that was the first prize, and the second prize was the house that Phillip shared
Charlotte’s POVI woke up with a grin on my face, it was Christmas morning and today Jack would find out I was pregnant. I rolled over and frowned when I realised that the bed was empty. I heard the shower running so climbed out of bed and made my way to the bathroom with a frown on my face. “What have I told you about leaving me to wake up to an empty bed” I pouted.“I only just got up to get the shower started, I was just on my way back to you” Jack tried to explain.“Ok” I walked into his arms and leaned up to kiss him “Merry Christmas” I mumbled against his lips.“Merry Christmas my love” He smiled “Come on we need to have a quick shower”“Why?” I asked rubbing my hands up his chest.“Behave” He chuckled “I have things I need to attend to this morning and some important people arriving that I will need you to greet with me”“Really?” I groaned as I quickly showered like he asked.I walked back into the bedroom, and he walked into the wardrobe and came out with a red velvet knee le
Jack’s POVI woke up to Ryan ringing my phone, I groaned as I slid out of bed and left the room.“What” I growled into the phone.“Your delivery is here, where do you want it?”“Shit, coming” I quickly ran down the stairs and got the delivery driver to place the tree in the lounge and the boxes of decorations down in front of it. “I better go back upstairs” I told Ryan as I ran back to Charlotte. I was shocked when I entered the room and the bed was empty, but then I heard the shower running and quickly made my way towards the bathroom. I stood enjoying the sight of her naked stood under the stream of water.“There you are” She grumbled “I did not like waking up in an empty bed”“Sorry babe, I just had so sort out a delivery. I have time to join you now though” I quickly undressed and joined her in the shower. I missed looking after her, I spun her around and started to wash her hair and her body while he tried to find out about the delivery. She seemed surprised that I did not try to
Charlotte’s POVAs soon as we got home, I hid the baby grow in Ryans room and then Grant started to show me around the rest of the property. I was shocked at how large it was, they had their own orchard and grape vines. This place was amazing, lastly Grant took me to see the pigs. They are tucked away behind the cells, what made sense.“Did Phillip get fed to them?” I asked.“Yes” Grant told me. “Does that upset you?”“No” I told him honestly “I am glad that he is dead”“On that note, you now own all of the properties that Phillip and Gavin owned”“What?” I looked at him shocked“You also have all their money too”“No” I pulled out my phone and almost fainted when I saw my bank balance.“Jack has taken over their business dealings, but I am sure if you wanted them, he would happily pass them on to you”“Fuck no, he can keep them”“The Doc was wondering if he could stay in Gavin’s old place”“He can have it” I told him “I don’t need any of the houses or the money. Give them all away to
Jack’s POVAfter Charlotte left, I went back to my computer and booked the holiday. I decided that we would bring in the new year on a tropical island.“Do you not think it was odd that Grant was so eager to go with them?” Warren asked.“What do you mean? He enjoys spending time with Charlotte”“I know, that’s not what I mean. It just seemed like he had to go with them as he did not like the idea of Zac going”“You think that he has an issue with Zac?”“No not that, I am not sure what I think. I just think it was odd how keen he was to go with Ryan and Charlotte”“I will talk to him later at the house and find out what is going on” I told him. “I don’t think it will be anything important” I decided that I better get back to sorting out the payroll while Charlotte was gone. Since she was helping me with the gift cards, we might be able to finish work early.“Have you thought about getting tree for the house?” Warren suddenly asked.“What?”“A Christmas tree, I know we don’t usually do
Grant’s POVI went to see the Doc first thing on Monday morning, while I had been gone, he had gone though and found a few positions that he wanted to apply for. All we had to do now was sort out his resume and figure out what he had been doing for the last few years.I had spoken to one of my old mates in the special forces and he said he was happy to act as a reference for the guy if he needed one. So that’s what we added to his C.V, he had been a medic for the special forces.Once his resume was updated, he sent off for the jobs. “Now I just need somewhere to live” He sighed “I cannot keep living here”“I was going to ask Charlotte if it would be ok for you to stay at Gavin’s old place”.“No one knows were that is” Doc looked at me in shock “He kept that very well hidden”“I have the location, and the property is now in Charlottes name, it’s a nice little lifestyle block. I thought that would suit you”.“Really, is she would be ok with me staying there that would be amazing. I will
Charlotte’s POVI looked at Grant in shock “How did you?” I was starting to panic, would the others figure it out so quickly?“Oh my god, am right” He looked at Ryan “You’re a sly dog how long have you known?”“Not long, I found out the same time as Charlotte”“And that was?”“Saturday morning” I sighed “It was Grace who figured it out when I vomited after smelling coffee”“Shit, so no more coffee for you” he laughed.“Well not for the moment no, but please don’t tell Jack. I want to wait and let him know on Christmas morning”“You should go get a little jumpsuit and wrap it up for him”“That’s such a good idea” I smiled at him, I could get it embroidered with something like ‘Heir to the King’ I laughed.“Ok you have to do that” Ryan told me.“I will, but right now we should probably get back to the office before he has a mental breakdown” I laughed. I could just imagine how much he was stressing, wondering if I would come back.“You going to tell him what she told you?” Ryan asked as
Jack’s POVAfter Charlotte left, I slumped in my chair, now I just had to wait and see what happens. I did not understand why she would want to cameras and stuff disabled. Was she scared that we were lying to her about me getting drugged? I hated waiting, I wanted to leave and go home so I was there when she was finished with Hannah. But I knew that was a bad idea and I needed to be patient and wait for Charlotte to come to me.Warren came and sat in the seat opposite me “What do you think she will ask Hannah?”“I have no idea and that’s what worries me” I sighed.“Lance told me that she said something that shocked both Ryan and Grant that stopped walking in shock”“Does he know what she said?”“No, they were too far away” “Fuck I hate waiting” I growled.“You are not the only one, we all want her to come back home” Warren told me as he stood up and went back to the door.I groaned I needed something to keep me distracted. I opened the internet browser and started to search for roman
Ryan’s POVThe whole time I was in Jack’s office I was on edge, waiting for him to blow up at me for hitting him. I eves dropped on his conversation with Zac thinking maybe he was going to give him my job and fire me. Only he was offering him a job as Charlottes driver, I guess I did still have a job. Once Zac left, I waited for him to call me over. I was wrong yet again as he called Charlotte over instead and started telling her that he had Hannah in the cells, and he had kept her alive for Charlotte. Honestly my head was swimming right now as I watch Charlotte set rules in place for her going to see Hannah. I was impressed when Jack agreed, and I got to go with her. Yes baby, I was going to have a very interesting afternoon.Then Jack offered her a coffee, I was about to step in myself and quickly take it away. Thankfully Charlotte managed to get away herself.Jack then called Grant and Charlotte went back to her desk to wait, now he was going to call me over and tell me this job wi
