Once I was dressed Jack wheeled me to the lounge. Warren and Lance were about to watch a movie by the looks of it.
“Lance did not tell me it was that bad” Warren came over and started to check my head. “I will kill that bitch for leaving you all alone.”
“You will have to get in line for that one” Jack growled behind me.
“Get in line for what?” Ryan asked as he set a couple of bowls of popcorn down on the coffee table. He glanced over at me and saw my head. “What the hell happened to Charlotte’s head?”
“Daisy left her alone to go try fuck Jack, while she was gone, Charlotte fell over and banged her head” Lance growled.
“Where is the bitch now? I want to bang her fucking head up.”
“Gone and I told her not to come back.” Jack lifted me out of my chair and placed me on the couch and handed me one of the bowls of popc

Phillip’s POVOnce I was done with my toy, I decided to let her recover for a little bit and went out. I went to the warehouse where Hannah would be meeting The King and found a spot to hide. I listened to their conversation impressed with Hannah’s acting. Even I might have believed her, while they were talking, I slipped away and put a tracker on their car. I knew that they would take it back to a garage. I only needed to know what garage, once I found that out, I could find the name used and see if they had any other properties owned under that name. Chances are that other property would be where they had my Charlotte. The meeting did not take long, and I watched as The King drove off with his men. I watched the tracker move on my phone, once it stopped and did not move again for over five minutes I zoomed in and started searching owner information on the building. Soon enough I had a name and the location of a mansion under the same name. I chuckled as I

Ryan’s POVI glared at Daisy as Jack brought her to the kitchen, I had no idea why Jack let her stay and help. Anyone could see that she treated Charlotte like crap. Suddenly I heard Charlotte coming down the hall chanting for bacon. I was now glad that I made extra this morning, I must have known she would want it. Warren pushed her to the table and instantly started to fill a plate up for her. It would have been a nice moment if Daisy did not open her bitchy mouth and insult Charlotte. I glared at Jack, but he did not notice. He was too busy sitting himself next to Charlotte.“How did you go this morning.” He asked.“Good I walked both ways, so now I get my bacon” She smiled.“She was amazing” Warren told him as the bastard sat down in my seat.“That’s my seat” I grumbled as I sat down next to Lance.“I did not know we had designated spots now” He laughed.&ldqu

Jack’s POVI don’t think that I focused on the movie at all, all I could think about was how perfect Charlotte felt in my arms. I didn’t want this to end, I wanted her to stay here with us forever, with me forever. When Grant called out to me, I wanted to tell him that what ever he had to tell me could wait. But I knew that was wrong, I needed to hear what he had to say. Hopefully what ever he had learnt would help us in ending this shit with Gavin and Phillip. So instead, I untangled myself from Charlotte and then watched her snuggle with Ryan instead. I knew that she did not think of him like that, but I still felt the wave of jealousy. We walked to my office and he once inside he updated me on everything that he had found. I was shocked that she was the sister of the rat and she somehow managed to get someone inside my office. The only bad thing about that was that my office staff was mainly women, it would be near impossible to find out who the rat

Grant’s POVI followed Jack back to the lounge.“I need to talk to the men alone for a few minutes, are you ok if I take you to your room and then come and get you after?” Jack asked Charlotte.“Of course, it’s your house” She smiled up at his as he lifted her up and placed her in her chair. I watched him as he wheeled her back to her room. I turned to notice that the others were all watching him as well.Jack returned and addressed the others. “Grant has found out a lot of information on the girl we met. It turns out that she is the sister of the rat that I killed. She also has a spy in our office.”“Shit, what are we going to do?” Ryan looked worried.“That’s what I need to talk to you all about. The only way that I can think to keep Charlotte safe, is to move her into my office.” Jack told them.“But you do some of your un-legit business in there&rd

Charlotte’s POV“I think I need to fill you in on exactly what we do.” Jack advised as soon as Ryan left.“You don’t have to tell me anything, I am fine been in the dark.”“The thing is I need to move you into my office to keep you safe, you are going to hear things.”“Just get some headphones for me to wear.”“What if I want to tell you?”“I am guessing whatever it is, is illegal since you have so many guns. All I need to know is that you don’t hurt women.”“I would never hurt or sell women, we deal in the supply and manufacture of drugs. Phillip works for my rival, a man who has been trying to take me down for years.”“That’s why you saved me.”“At the start yes”“And now?” I held my breath waiting for his reply.“Now I care about you and want to keep you sa

Phillip’s POVAs soon as I saw the men running towards me, I turned tail and ran as fast as I could. I could feel one of them gaining on me, but I refused to turn around and check. That would just slow me down, I made it to the fence and quickly boosted myself over. Just as I landed, I heard gun fire followed by an excruciating pain in my leg. The bastard had shot me, I could not stop, or they would kill me. I hobbled as quickly as I could to my bike. I had to hold in my scream as I swung my leg over and started it up. I did not have the time to check it out, I had to get out of here. I glanced behind me and saw that the prick was still chasing after me. It was not until I reached the road that he finally stopped. Shit that was close, if only the stupid bitch had not screamed, she would be mine right now. Since they know I am aware of where she is they will up security, I know that I will not be able to get to her now. I guess I will need Hannah after all, hopefully she

Ryan’s POVAs soon as we heard Charlotte scream, we all pulled out our guns and ran to her room. It made me feel good knowing how quickly everyone jumped to protect her. I remember when I was the only one who paid her any attention. Now she has all of us wrapped around her little finger. As soon as we arrived in her room, we all spotted Phillip. I had no idea how he found us, but shit he had some balls trying to take Charlotte from our own property. Grant ran out the door chasing him followed by Warren and Lance.“How did that fucker find us” Jack growled.“We will find out and we will her safe” I told him “No one will get to her.”“Charlotte, I need you to move to my room with me, unless someone climbs, they cannot get to it from the outside. It also means I can protect you as you are right beside me.”She looked up at him with tears streaming down her face “Please don’t let him get

Jack’s POVCharlotte was moving into my room, I was not sure if I was more excited or nervous.“I will leave you with the boys to sort out your room while I make room for you in mine.”“Are you sure its ok for me to move into your room?”“I will do anything to keep you safe, once Phillip is caught, we can re-think the arrangements” I just hoped that she would still want to stay with me once this was all over.“That’s if you don’t get sick of me before then” She laughed as I wheeled her out of the lounge. We found all the guys sat in the kitchen drinking.“Are we celebrating something?” Charlotte asked as I pushed her to the table.“Yes, we are celebrating the fact that we may get to shoot some of the bitches in the office on Monday” Ryan laughed.I looked at him confused “What are you talking about?”“The women in

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

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

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 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
