Before I met Marco, I already had the streets in my control. It wasn’t easy at first. Because I had to fight head to head, fist to fist, knife to knife, gun to gun, name it, you have it! The rules of living on the streets are tough. And only those who survive them remain. And only those who are not scared of death get to muster their strength and sit on the throne.
I learned on the streets that being fierce is not enough to win any battle. Fierceness is bland. One has to spice it with humor and concern, respect and loyalty, in order to secure the alliance and submission of those that are in your legion.
I value their family like I do mine. I even teach the idiotic ones who seemed to abandon their family due to experiencing abuse- physical and mental. I remind them to hate what they do and not follow their ways when the time comes that they bec
“Relax! She did not say anything. She did not spit the food out of her mouth either. It might mean that the taste was somehow bearable,” I comforted myself. And I thought of something else to offer her.“Coffee or juice?” I asked timidly.When she said she’d love to have a glass of fresh fruit juice, I did not dally.After I gave Skye the second glass of juice as she had asked for a refill, I saw Marco looking as shocked and astonished as I was when I realized Skye was talking to me. But since I had somehow adjusted to my mind-blowing emotions, I broke the silence and greeted Marco.“Hey!”I guess Marco also bit h
“That was my seventh birthday gift from dad Ted,” Skye said in between huffs of breaths and wiping her tears from having a fit of giggles and cackles.“Wow! I am more amazed that despite you knowing what was inside the box actually, you still jumped as if it was the first time you’d seen it in your life,” I said with chuckles. I was really amused at how she bounced on her seat as soon as the monkey inside the box of wooden made, creative and decorative box.“I was still about to ask you about what you guess was inside it when Jack the monkey popped out of his hiding,” Skye said with the smile on her face never fading.“I never thought it would be what it is,” I answered as I tried to put the box the way it was when I spotted it earlier. I closed
“I only want to talk to you,” a man in his late fifties almost, wearing an elegant suit, blatantly declared as soon as we got into Marco’s office. He was already waiting in the receiving area of Marco’s office when we arrive.“If that is the case, I am afraid that is not possible. You can forget we met and cancel whatever deal you were offering,” Marco decisively answered.“Are you sure about that?” the man in suit leisurely commented. He even sat with his legs crossed, left above his right knees. “Think about what you will lose if we cancel this deal….”Marco clenched his teeth. Based on what I could see, the man was holding some kind of ace card to threaten Marco the way he did, and Marco was somehow a bit shaken about the possible resu
Marco’s POVIt was refreshing to see and watch Skye and Gab share a joyful leap of laughter after jumping at the same time when the wooden box Gabriel was holding suddenly opened, and a funny-looking monkey toy sprang out of it. I could not help joining their boisterous cackles and guffaws as they both seemed to bust their sides. I know it meant more for Gab than how it might appear to be, but I am happy for him as well. I had hoped the tension would die down between these two precious people I now regard as my living family. As weak as it might sound or appear to anyone who knew and knows me well, Gabriel and Skye are the dearest people I have in my life right now. I don’t know how to explain how they both came into my life in different ways, but they have one thing in common. They both saved my life! Intentionally or by mere coincidence, fate had brought them into my path. Somehow, somewhere down my labyrinth, they happened to cross, and now, they both weigh so much more to me t
I did not get any answer from the two, so I paused in my tracks, and my eyes took turns looking at Skye and then at Gab, asking silently what was wrong. I noticed the look in Gab’s eyes was the same as mine. He was also asking, and the only difference was the questions in his eyes and mine. I knew I could not conceal my expressions from this man since he knew me for more than a decade now, but I was hoping he would not be so vocal asking right in front of Skye. I guess my thoughts were accurate, considering Gab seemed to hold his tongue from asking me verbally. But…“What’s wrong?” Skye asked. I could sense the wary in her tone, and I wanted to slap my own head for not being able to hide any of my emotions from her. I even tried to deny it and make her think she was wrong to think something was off, but her next words shattered me into a million pieces. “I don’t know if Gab here is buying it, but I am not. So, just spit it out,” Skye’s eyebrows drew a line on her forehead, eyeing G
“And maybe I am just feeling so guilty that I could not keep my word to Skye since I said we could stay here all day if she wanted to, and now I had to go, but I do not want to leave her behind,” I groaned and sighed in frustration.I blew a few big breaths with my self-mockery.“I know I can trust you with her, but I don’t feel comfortable leaving her behind. I hope you understand, man,” I turned to eye on Gab, defeatedly.Gab shook his head as he smiled back at me when he heard my words.“It’s not like Skye would want to stay behind either,” Gab chuckled. “Besides, I would feel more comfortable to have you both under my watch, just in case chaos comes swinging by, by any chance,” he added.&nb
Before anyone could say anything, Skye continued with her words while checking my safety belts securely fastened.“I was there the whole time my dad was restitching your wound. You were naked that time. You had a blanket covering your lower body, but when he realized that your catheter got misaligned, he had to do it again, so I also have seen whatever you are desperately trying to hide from me right now,” she stated like it was a matter of fact trivia and not something I should feel so embarrassed about.Nevertheless, I felt so naked even with all my clothes still on, covering my entire body decently. I had to beg her to stop her litany. I was worried my flushed face would not be enough. The car might flood with my blood seeping out of my ears and eyes in so much torture from her mere words.
Skye’s POVWhen we arrived at the car parked in the yard, all ready and waiting for us to leave, I got into my usual seat in it and was actually expecting Marco would do the same. I just realized I was wrong to think so when Gab told Marco to sit in the back. I looked at the two upfront of the vehicle and saw Marco was already seated next to Gab, who was sitting behind the wheel.Marco seemed to be insisting, defying Gab’s words, and the two bickered, so I decided to butt in.“I agree with Gab. Hurry up and move to the back, Marco,” I said my words with a hint that told Marco I wasn’t just suggesting. It was because I was ordering him.I find his actions childish to insist on taking the passenger’s seat, know
Gab’s POV The moment I held the little girl in my arms, I knew my heart no longer belonged to me. I belonged to Skye and this precious little angel in my embrace. The words Marco had said reflected exactly the same thoughts and emotions I had in my heart. I could not help feeling crazy for the extent of euphoria that captured my whole being. I was ready to give way for Marco had Skye decided to live a totally normal life– I meant to say normal by having only one spouse when she settled down. I even gave them a space for a month, I used the alibi to work with Sarge in dealing with the most crucial missions. I dared death to take me if I did not belong to Skye’s side. I was able to move according to my wishes until Skye found out about the avoidable risks that I chose to face head-on. “If you are trying to get yourself killed, then I am not going to let you do it all by yourself!” Skye nagged at me, crying. She rebelled against me by starving herself for days until she forgave me
Surrogacy.Unlike every other decision, I did not discuss this matter with my husbands in advance. I was going to surprise them with it. But in order to do this, I had to ask for Aunt Almira and Uncle George’s help. I did not want to get any personal involvement with the surrogate, so I made sure none of the three of us, Marco, Gab, and I knew anything about the procedure. After carefully understanding everything and knowing what to do, I took their sperm secretly. After a year of waiting, the day finally came.When the babies were about to be born, I simply suggested adopting a baby or two. As we waited for the day, I continuously mentioned wanting babies. And just as I expected, my doting husbands did not deny me of this wish of mine. The moment they agreed, we got busy decorating and renovating our home to welcome our new members. On the day the babies were born, Aunt Almira and Uncle George ordered us to stay at home and wait. “What are they up to?” Marco asked. “I have no idea
Skye's POV“Yeah, although I still think you are the sexiest when you are in all-work-mode, I am not happy to see you tiring yourself this much,” Gab said as he started to clear my desk with all the paper and folders on top of it. “Well, well….” I giggled as I started to feel relaxed from Marco’s gentle kneading on my sore and aching shoulders. “You kept your word when you said you would not bother me, so how do you want to claim your rewards?” “If only no one has declared any rules about doing it in the office, I would really love to have you bent on your desk while we get your glory holes filled with cock,” Gab answered. I know having two spouses was more than of a shock to many, so I do not want to add to the negative thoughts people would be having about us by doing things in other places, such as the office. I believe respect starts within oneself. If I want people- employees or not, to respect us, we have to be respectable. We have to observe decency if we want to be treated
Skye’s POV“Boss, the CEO is at the door again,” my secretary informed me for the nth time ever since the clock turned four in the afternoon today. “Never mind him. But if he insists on getting in here, tell him that if he keeps bothering me, we will end up having overtime again today,” I answered without lifting my head to move my eyes away from the paper that I was meticulously checking in my hands. “Uhmmm….” I heard my secretary stammering, but I did not bother looking up.I guess it was not easy to relay my message. Nevertheless, it did not stop me from doing what I supposed I should. I had my nose focused on studying the biggest project I have ever had in my entire career, I could not afford to be wrong in any way, nor in the slightest. “If you have nothing more to say, you can go now. And when the clock strikes five, there is no need to inform me. You can leave for the day,” I said, still not sparing her a glance. “I…. Uhm….” I heard Marissa, a lady about five years older th
Marco’s POV“Why did you have to be so mean when I presented my report that morning, cupcake, huh?” I heard Gab ask while delaying and interrupting her release. “Yeah, I remember that!” I whispered breathlessly as soon as I released her lips from my playfully punitive kisses. “Oh… God!” Skye moaned again. “What are— Mmmm... I didn’t! Ah….!” She tried to reason out.If she wanted to defend herself by saying that she did not make anything difficult for Gab or for anyone in any way that day, the more I tried to reason out, the more Gab seemed to punish her for something he believed Skye deserved to receive. “I don’t think Gab here agrees with that statement, sweet pea,” I teasingly said, still whispering and chuckling. “Whatever you want to say, can we discuss it later? I feel so horny. I think my period is soon to come. So, will you fuck my brains out first and deal with the rest later?” Skye said in between moans and groans. “Oh, baby. Who am I to deny such a sweet request?!” I
Gab’s POVThe way Skye delivered her words– before leaving Marco and me speechless in the living room and going upstairs to her bedroom, sent shivers down my spine. But then again, I wasn’t sure if I was right in taking her silent indications about something while responding to Marco’s offer to become the head accountant of his Construction company. In my understanding, which I believe to be foolish, by the way. Skye was referring to something else when she said she did not want to work side-by-side with Marco. This assumption of mine was boosted to be correct when she mentioned working front and back.It made me think of something sensual!‘Me and my deprived sexual gratification!’ This thought alone made me stiffen entirely. The sinfully sexy memory of having Skye sandwiched in between Marco and me, taking her front and back and, at the same time– with me in her back door while Marco was upfront. However, every time we get the chance to do it, Skye does not show any signs of want
Skye’s POV“Ohhh, fu–!” My moan was swallowed in the heated kiss that Marco was giving me as Gab was fervently eating my wet pussy like he had been starved for a thousand years. I had to tap the side of his left upper arm to let me catch a breath of air as Marco seemed so eager to devour me to the soul with his hungry kisses. “I have longed to hear the sweet sound of your moans, baby….” Marco whispered huskily. This is what I was craving for, but my imagination did not compare nor give fair justice to what these two were doing to satisfy that longing I had within me. Not that I have told them about it, but when they came to my room after the given time I mentioned to them earlier, I realized I was not ready to chew and swallow the bite that I mindlessly took. “Ggggggg… God! Damn!” I groaned when I felt Gab sucking on that tiny button of pleasure sitting so prettily close to the hood of my soaking-wet and pulsating-in-excitement pussy!“Why, babe? What did you expect we would do on
Marco’s POVI tried to hide my fear for Skye when she mentioned her discomfort being in the actual battle that we spent time planning strategically before executing our attacks. I was worried she was having a hard time in any way concerning the ugly view of the bloody surroundings we had to go through, whether we liked it or not. In the war zone, there are only two options. To kill or to be killed. Mercy is foolishness when the enemy is desperate to stay alive. So, to walk out of a battlefield with a secured and maintained life, the only choice one has is to kill the opponent. Sometimes, shooting the other party somewhere not fatal is an option, but it also falls into a case-by-case situation. I have seen how Skye would despise the sight of blood. Although she seemed tough in everyone’s eyes, I could not help worrying about her most of the time. But whenever I get the chance to keenly and intently watch her reactions, what I would see on her face comforting my wary mind and let go o
Gab’s POVAs per Skye’s request, I did everything I could and the rest of the IT team to dig and find out all about the man named Douglas Cane. I am not very sure I got everything there was to find, but instead of discovering much about his identity, we were able to trace and locate all his properties, and just as the legal documents of the lab where we found him, everything he used to own became Skye’s. According to the records of registered birth, Douglas Cane turned out to be Brandon Ford’s great-grandfather. Brandon’s father was the son of Douglas’ illegitimate daughter. A child he did not know he had with a woman he slept with. He had other children, but they all died before they turned of legal age. Anyone in their family that dies young means they did not possess the blood of their ancestors. But because Douglas did not know about his daughter, who possessed the blood to pass on whatever their ancestors had passed on him, he could not die. He had to make living sacrifices of v
