Grant returned in record time with the clothing. I was impressed he had gone with trackpants, T-shirts and hoodies as well as some plain cotton nickers and bras. I was glad that he had been quick so that I could not make my way back to the hospital and bring her back here where I knew she would be safe. I quickly packed a bag with some clothes for her to wear home when Ryan rang me. I felt instant panic as I answered the call. I felt instant relief when I found out that he was only calling me to advise that Charlotte did not have any clothes to come home in. I was already aware of that and that is why Grant had gone out shopping. I quickly ended the call and rallied up Warren and Lance, I wanted to get back now.
As Soon as we arrived at the hospital I walked in while Lance and Warren took their places by the door. As soon as I go to the room, I sent Ryan to go get the nurse so that she can get Charlotte Changed. I want us out of here and back to the h

Charlotte’s POVWhen Jack came in with the bag of clothes I started to worry, what was he going to get me to wear? It’s not like I could turn down what ever he brought me. I had nothing to wear apart from the hospital gown and disposable knickers I was currently wearing. I was pleasantly surprised when the nurse closed the curtain and pulled out trackpants and a hoodie. He had even bought be basic cotton underwear. The nurse made quick work of getting me changed and then helping me sit in the wheelchair before she opened the curtain and left me with Jack and Ryan. Suddenly Jack surprised me by handing me a phone. He told me that he had already programmed all of the guys numbers into it. I never even used my old phone, it was only in case Phillip ever wanted to get hold of me. When I told this to Jack Ryan decided to perk up saying that now I could txt him. I didn’t know what to say, so I was glad when Ryan walked behind me and started to push me out. I sneak

Ryan’s POVI left Jack to get Charlotte settled and went off with Warren and Lance.“So, how long before she is in Jack’s bed?” Lance asked with a dark chuckle.I glared at him, the man may look like a serial killer, but I knew I could take him in a fight “What are you talking about?”“Come on man, Jack does not give a shit about women. He uses them for a release and that’s it”.“Exactly, so why would Charlotte end up in his bed?”“Have you not seen the way that he looks at her? Add on the fact he is letting her stay in his house, he has never allowed anyone to stay here apart from us” Warren came to his man’s defence.I hated how they were both right, I had noticed the way that he looked at her and it worried me. I was worried he would hurt Charlotte. “He better not fucking hurt her” I growled.“Wait do you fancy her?” W

Charlotte’s POVAs soon as we finished in the gym Jack told me he would take me to the kitchen and the lounge area. He told me I was welcome to go wherever I wanted apart from the boy’s rooms. As soon as we neared the kitchen, we would hear the other guys talking. All we heard was the back end of the conversation and Ryan saying, “change his mind hurting her”.“Who is getting hurt” Jack asked as he wheeled me up to the boys.“Hopefully no one” Ryan grumbled. “How do you like your room” He asked me“It’s huge” I giggled “I also saw the gym”. While I was talking, I tried to focus on his face to see if I could figure out what he was talking about. Who is he worried about getting hurt? Me?“She can move her big toe. Would you be able to start working with her to build up her strength?” Jack asked Warren. I felt a surge or pride, he thought I was ready

Jack’s POVI felt like shit, the look on Charlotte’s face before she turned and wheeled herself away broke me. We all stood in silence looking towards Charlotte’s room.“She will get over it, we can not get in the way. We need to take this time and come up with a plan to get him before he gets Charlotte. Now that he knows his new bird is not who he thought I have a feeling he will want Charlotte back” Grant spoke looking around us all “Charlotte is a sweet girl who deserves so much better. We need to make sure that prick does not get his hands on her”.He was right. “I want eyes on him at all times. He is going to have to go and see Gavin at some stage. We need to know were that coward is hiding”.“Do you think Charlotte might have any intel on Gavin? Her and Phillip have been married a while and he did not see her as a threat. She might have over heard things”.“I never thought of that, the answers we need might be right in front of us” I grinned as I got up and walked to Charlotte’s

Ryan’s POVI could not help but tease Jack about Charlotte and I acting like we were dating. I could tell that he did not like the idea, but he also did not want Charlotte to become a target. As I walked towards the gym, I could not get rid of the smile on my face. I wondered how long it would be before he realised that he was starting to fall for Charlotte. I was the only one in the gym what was the way I liked it. I put my earphones in and started my workout playlist. Once it was cranking, I got into my circuit. By the time I was done I was covered in sweat and in drastic need of a shower. The hallway was empty, and I did not see any of the guys on the way to my room. I was tempted to check on Charlotte, but Jack was right after all she had been though she needed her sleep. I went to my room and headed straight to the shower. Once I was done, I laid on my bed and started to read until I fell asleep.I was the first one awake as usual, I made my way to the kitchen and started to cook

Charlotte’s POVI was just about to try get myself out of bed so I could go to the loo when someone knocked at my door. “Come in” I called out while pushing myself into a sitting position. A curvy blonde bomb shell walked into the room and after looking at something down the hall finally closed the door with a sigh.“Man, that guy is sex on legs” She walked over to me and held out her hand “I am Daisy, and you must be Charlotte”.“That’s me” I shook her hand and gave her a weak smile.“You are so lucky to be living in a house full of hunks”.“As soon as I can walk again, and I help them with a job they are working on I will be leaving”.“Then if I was you, I would stall” She giggled. She helped me into my chair and wheeled me into the bathroom and turned on the shower “That Jack guy is both hot and loaded” She grabbed her perfect breasts “I had to screw an ugly old dude for him to pay for these babies for me. Thankfully his wife found out, so he sent me packing. Now I love to think ho

Jack’s POVWhen I woke in the morning, I could already smell breakfast. That was one of the things I liked about Ryan, he always made sure that we had a decent breakfast before starting the day. I quickly had a shower and made my way to the kitchen. The only ones up were Ryan and Grant. I had only just arrived when someone knocked at the door. I gathered that it was the career that I had hired to went to let her in. As soon as I opened the door and saw the big breasted blonde, I had to refrain from rolling my eyes. I noticed the way she looked me up and down like I was a snack she could eat, and it made me sick.“You must be the career I hired to look after Charlotte”.“That’s me” She held her hand out to me “I am Daisy, its super nice to meet you Sir”.I ignored her hand and turned to walk away “Follow me, Charlotte should be awake, and she will need you to help her get ready” I did not bother t

Phillip’s POVI got up and acted like I was going to work. I drove to my garage and climbed into one of my other cars. I drove back to the house and watched and waited for Jane to come out. I did not need to wait long before she came out dressed in a tight red short dress. She never dressed like that, she dressed so sweet and innocent when she was around me. Had the whore been playing me? She got in her car, and I followed. She can not have even noticed me as she drove straight to a large house. She pulled up and sat in her car. I was wondering what she was waiting for, but then I saw a gorges brunet leave the house and climb into a car. As soon as the car was out of sight Jane quickly jumped out of her car and ran towards the house. So, the father of her child was married, and his wife was hot as hell, why on earth was he banging Jane? Yes, she was cute, but she was no comparison to his wife.

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.

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

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

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.

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.
