Jack’s POV
As I was firing my shots at Jessie, I started to think about Charlotte and how she was acting this morning. After all of this was over, I wanted to make her my wife, I wanted her to know every little thing about me. I hated keeping things from her, so I made a promise to myself. After Phillip was out of the way, I would never keep anything from her again. I gave Warren the order to put Jessie in the boot and be ready to go out once I was finished in the shower. I had a couple of things that I needed to get sorted for Charlottes Christmas present and having Grant here would greatly help me with one of them. While Warren can come out with me to sort the other one. Out of all my men I trusted these two to keep their mouths shut. Ryan liked Charlotte too much so would end up letting things slip and Lance just didn’t think when he spoke. Probably why he was usually the silent brooding type.
I quickly showered, not that I got any grime on me today. But
Grant’s POVAfter we locked Jessie in the boot Warren, and I went our separate ways to go and get showered. Since we were the ones having to carry Jessie about, we were the ones who got dirty, not Sir King. But we are but the servants to the King.Once I was showered, I went to wait for Jack at the bottom of the stairs. Warren came out a few minutes later.“So where do you think we are going?”“You are more likely to know that than me, you are the ones who are with him all the time”“You sound grumpy” He chuckled.“No, I am just pointing out that I am the least likely to know where we are going. Has anyone else pissed him off?”“Na not that I know off”“Maybe he just wants to go Christmas shopping or something”“Maybe”We stood in silence after that until Jack came down. “Grant, I need you to find some people for me” He handed me a bit of paper and I read the names on it.I grinned up at him “I will let you know what I find” I told him as I ran off, I got to my room and looked at the
Charlotte’s POVAfter we finished at the suit shop, we went straight to see Reece. I got myself settled while the boys started looking for cufflinks to go with the suit. I smiled as I closed my eyes and zoned out, I suddenly woke up when I felt someone kissing me. I snapped my eyes open and was surprised to see Jack smiling down at me.“How do you sleep while getting tattooed” He chuckled.“It’s a special gift” I smiled back “Are you finished with your work?”“Yeah, we just need to strip and burn that car as I don’t think we will ever get the smell out of it”“It did smell super bad” I gagged.“You are doing a good job” he told Reece motioning at my arms.“Yeah, I am almost finished the arms and if she feels up to it, I will move on to her neck and back. If you want your chest done let me know and I will call my wife in for you”“The chest does not have many scars and my bra hides most of them, as long as Jack does not mind the scars, I will leave them”“You could have left all your s
Grant’s POVCharlottes parents where so happy when I left. I gave them our address and asked them to come over on Christmas morning. I also gave them my number so that I could come over and let them watch Charlotte on the cameras whenever they want. After I left them, I decided to go and join the others at Reece’s. I am sure that they would be getting lunch soon and I was starting to get hungry. I arrived just as they were ordering lunch. I grinned as I took a seat and listened to them all banter. Lance was doing his Christmas shopping, I was surprised he was doing it already. He usually went out on a mad dash on Christmas eve. I hung out with them all until dinner when I decided that I better go and start stripping down this car. We did not want to leave Jessie in the boot too long or it would start to smell. One of the bad things about summer, I walked over to Warren and Lance hoping that I could persuade them to come with me and help.“Want to come strip a car with me and set it al
Jack’s POVI did not like Reece’s comment, what the hell did he mean by ‘I don’t think it’s your men that you need to worry about when it comes to hurting her’. Did he think that I was going to hurt her? I had never felt like this about a woman before, I was not planning on hurting her ever. Maybe he some how knew about our plan, but that did not make sense as he is always with Charlotte when the men are here. I know that they would not risk talking about it when Charlotte is around. So, he must think that I am going to hurt her somehow. Did Charlotte think the same thing? God my mind was going nuts, I needed to snap out of this over thinking. I had my girl right here and I needed to make sure we enjoyed each other’s company as much as we can just in case anything happens. I know that Charlotte will be safe sine the guards are all Grants. It’s me I am not so sure about, I will have the men fully on Charlotte, so she is safe. The bad thing about that was that I was leaving myself vulne
Charlotte’s POVMy tattoo work was finished, I was over the moon. Now I could spend more time with Jack and the men. I wanted to get more training in, I didn’t like that Phillip might still be out there and want to hurt me. I know that Jack and the guys would never let him close to me, but I still wanted to be prepared just in case. On the way back to the house Jack started talking about letting me drive when we go on a trip. I had no been on a holiday since I still lived at home with my parents, the thought made me miss them. I had not heard from them in years. The last time I saw them we had a fight as they wanted me to leave Phillip. Phillip had told me that if I did leave him and go with them, he would make sure that they died a slow a painful death and he would make me watch the whole thing. How could I leave him and go with them knowing that? After that I never saw or heard from them again, I guess they finally gave up on me.We arrived home and I noticed Grant, Lance and Warren
Ryan’s POVI was shocked that Charlotte managed to hit me in the head with the pepper shaker. I could already feel the lump forming and that was with the ice pack on it. I kept looking at charlotte out of the corner of my eye. She has been eating more than usual the last couple of days and now she was craving food. She did not seem to take it seriously when I teased her about the cravings, so maybe she was just more relaxed now and starting to eat more. I decided not to worry about it, I am sure that if she was worried, she knew she could come and talk to me. After she had finished her cheeseburger and milkshake she retired up to their room with Jack.“How’s the head?” Grant chuckled.“She got me good” I laughed back “I am excited about starting up with her training again”“Me too, I bet she will be a pro with the throwing knives”“I am sure she will, so what was the real reason for you guys all been outside?”“We just got back from setting the car with Jessie in the boot on fire”“Oh
Phillip’s POV That night I slept so peacefully, the doc came by in the morning and gave me the drops again. Zac came by to bring me breakfast. He had nothing new to repost so after a short visit he left again, telling me he would be back with lunch. After an hour the Doc came back and removed my bandages for me.“I will give you some more at Lunch time, before them you should notice that your eyesight starts to become clearer”I could already notice a change and it was starting to get me excited. “Thank you, Doc,” I grinned.I spent the rest of the morning looking around, by the time lunch time came I could make out the outlines of most things. They were still blurry though and I would not trust myself to try walk anywhere on my own. I was hoping that might change and by dinner time I might be able to take myself for a piss.The Doc arrived before Zac and gave me my drops, I sighed as he put bandaged back on.“Its only for an hour” He told me “We need to make sure that your eyes sta
Charlotte’s POVI woke up feeling so excited, now that my tattoo work was all done it was time to get back to my training with the boys. I looked over at Jack who was still sleeping peacefully. I tried to slip out of bed without waking him but failed. As soon as his arms was no longer touching me, he woke up and glared at me.“Where do you think you are sneaking off to? Its Sunday morning, that means its sleep in day”“Sorry, I wanted to get downstairs so that I can start my training”“So let me get this right, you were going to leave me in bed alone, to then go and hang out with the guys?”“When you say it like that it sounds bad” I sighed as I climbed back in to bed “I just want to get some more training in. I like knowing that I can protect myself, it makes me feel more empowered knowing that I will never be a victim again”“Now I feel like an arsehole, come on let’s get showered then get you down to train with the boys”“Thank you” I grinned as I jumped into his arms. “I promise o
