Jackson walks down, sitting I talk to him, trying to get him to agree to go out.“You need to be able to leave her alone at some point, when I am on the mission, Georgina and Liam at work, then what if you get called to work” He nods giving in.“Okay, fine, let me go talk to her” He gets up walks into the room and sits with Alena talking. He walks back through and we walk out, driving to the local bar we sit and talk for hours.“She was saying about you moving out.” I hear Jackson's words nodding, I knew she would eventually.“She doesn’t want you to Marcus, she is lying, honestly, she was saying it through fear that I would leave her over the whole baby thing.” “I know what she means, but maybe it will be best if I do.” He shakes his head at me.“No, it won’t be, she wants you there still, and I do as well Marcus.” I nod not wanting to cause a fight.Hours pass by, and Jackson talks about the arrangement of Alena being my brat for one night if she agrees. That will be my official go
I am being plagued, every time I close my eyes and drift away into a deep slumber.“No, Marcus don’t please,” her screams following me into the darkness.“Please wake up, stay with me Marcus, you can't leave me.” Every night on replay, I wake up feeling frozen, my eyes wet, I wish I could go back and cuddle her, tell her I never died, but I can’t. Sitting up I look around me; I gave everything up for her to be safe.It has been nearly three years now, three years of no longer been called Marcus. Now I am Adrian, I look different, everything is different, and that day was the last I saw of Alena and the old team. That day, Marcus died, and when I woke up, I gave him up willingly every part of him.I walk in to the main tent; the team are sat there waiting for instructions.“Mate, when is this going to happen? We need to have some fun and let our hair down so to speak.” I turn, I don’t like been called mate, and I certainly am not here to answer his questions.“I am not here to make fuc
Walking in, I am greeted by a woman.“I am here to see Mrs Woodcock.” She nods leading me the way, I don’t need to be led I know the way. She knocks on the door, opens it she introduces me, walking in I stop, taking in Alena. Everything flooding back, I look at her, my heart breaking all over again, she smiles and points to the seat. Sitting down, she gets her paper and pen ready.“So, out of everyone who entered only three were put through, this is more to find out more about you, and why you want this job.” I am not prepared for this at all.“Well, I am Adrian, I was in the Army for over twenty years. I don’t have any family left; my team was my family.” I am not getting this, she looks at me and smiles, and I wonder how long till she realises I am Marcus?“Thank you, Adrian, have you ever done this type of work before? I know you have been in the army, but have you been a bodyguard before?” I nod, ready with all my fake documents.“I have ma’am.” I slide the papers across to her, a
Sitting Liam talks away to me.“I will admit it; it is strange seeing another man in this house.” I nod.“I understand, people will be used to just the husband being around, and things changing can be unsettling.” He nods at my reply.“She needs a lot of help.” I laugh at his words, he looks shocked at me, and I shake my head.“Sorry, it just sounds wrong, she seems so in control like she has everything sorted.” She does, so why does he think she needs a lot of help?“She makes it look that way, without going into detail, this is the first time Jackson has left her since an incident that nearly cost him his life, so she is on edge and not coping.” I nod, not sure what he is getting at, I can’t do much.“Just a warning, that is all.” He smiles at me and I turn to see Alena walking downstairs, my eyes taking her in. She is fine; sure she looks on the edge which would be expected but nothing compared to before, she is coping better than before.“Right, so you two are free to stay or leav
The babysitter walks in.“Morning Alena.” She looks at me and smiles carrying on walking towards the kitchen.“Morning Jo, same as always.” Alena finishes eating, gathering the plates and carrying them to the kitchen.“You remember Adrian; I am sure you two will get to know each other better in time.” Jo nods, carrying on with her task, seemingly feeling right at home.“It must help that she has known them for a long time, and built up that bond with your husband away.” The kids need that, someone here they have bonded with, and the babysitter is that person.“In a way, Jo has only been here about three weeks, to be honest, the old babysitter just never showed up, no contact nothing.” So Jo does not have such a strong bond with them.“That is a shame, strange she left without warnings or any explanations though.” I don’t understand why anyone would do that, children need stability, the babysitter being one, so to just go doesn’t make sense at all.“I have no idea, I can only assume sh
Mary walks in looking at Luke, then towards me, she walks straight to the office, and Alena comes out.“Right, time to go home, I will see you all Monday.” She smiles looking at me, Monday? It is Thursday is she not in now till Monday? Following her out I get in the car, I need to find out, all this time away anything could be happening without her knowing.“So, you don’t work Friday to Sunday?” I know Jackson left his business unattended for weeks sometimes, but then again it was not unattended it was in very good hands. I can’t say anything. Clearly, Alena and Jackson think her business is in good hands.“Normally I work Monday through Saturday. Usually, though Jackson and I took turns with the girls, and MJ, so they were not often left with the babysitter. We decided it would be best that I took a long weekend off, so they still got to me more with him not being here.” Well that I can certainly understand.“Anyway, if things are going well, he will be back at the weekend. So, I sho
Walking up to the house, I notice the window is open, the sound of Alena and Georgina talking, stopping I sit down.“It doesn’t matter to Jackson, he sees MJ as his own and always will” Alena’s words make me want to listen to the conversation.“Yeah, I still don’t understand how it happened, seriously how did you get pregnant by Marcus?” She can’t have, it isn’t possible.“I don’t know, maybe one of the times we were together with Jackson something was wrong with a condom, I have no idea. I got the results week, I had to wait for Jackson to leave because he refused to do one, we know he isn’t Jacksons but he didn’t care or want it proven.” So she knows for sure now, I can’t see him as my son, he isn’t my son he is Alena’s and Jackson's.“His eyes, you can see it Alena, just looking at his eyes you see Marcus” I need to go in, I can’t sit here and listen to it all. Walking to the door my hand reaches for the handle.“Is it weird, that Adrian is so much like Marcus?” My hand stops, wait
“Just catching up, I wanted to make sure everything was fine while I was away.” Jackson smiles at her pulling her up to embrace.“You go get a bath and an early night, you deserve it, I am going to talk to Adrian and make sure he knows everything.” She nods walking upstairs, he sits down looking at me.“So, why the hell is Alena part of a mission?” I walk upstairs grabbing the files bringing them down, pushing them across the table to him, my hand holding them down as he goes to grab them.“Jackson, you read this you realise you can’t make it known, you can’t stay and you can’t throw these people out, I mean it.” He looks at me nodding, his hand pulling the files towards him. I sit watching as he goes through reading, including the most recent updates about Jo, the security guy Luke and the old babysitter. By the end he looks horrified, looking up at me, I can see he wants to change everything.“Don’t Jackson” I shake my head.“How can you say don’t, how the hell did I not notice what
It is Monday, and Jackson leaves soon, and I know he will hate himself more than he hates Liam right now if he leaves and doesn’t sort it. So protecting my balls, I walk into the now-empty office.“Go see Liam.” He doesn’t even look up to me, he shakes his head and continues signing papers.“I mean it, you go and see Liam, he is the only family you have left Jackson. Go see him sort this shit out, I know Alena is hurting not seeing Georgina.” No one has even communicated, Georgina is sticking by Liam and Alena is sticking with Jackson, it needs sorting.“Go sort it, then Alena can at least say bye to Georgina.” He finally looks up and moves, standing in front of me.“I will, but only for Alena, I have no intention of accepting his apology none at all, but for her, I will.” He walks out, following him I watch him leave, Alena looking at him confused.“He is going to sort things out.” She smiles, clearly, she agrees it needs fixing“I am glad, he leaves in an hour and I don’t want him g
“What are you trying to do to me? Seriously.” I laugh stepping backwards, her body coming towards me,“Stay kitten.” She looks at me with an innocent look and slowly takes another step.“I thought I would come and help Master.” I shake my head looking at her, she is amazing.“Kitten, not happening, I would be fucking you right here for everyone to see all night” Her eyes spark with interest and it just makes me want to do it more.“Fine, no sex, I will just help you.” She steps forward now reaching me, her hand pushing into my jeans and grabbing my cock.“And how do you plan to do that kitten?” Someone walks in, Alena moving closer to my body hiding her hand, he walks past into a cubicle, and she smiles.“Well Master, first I am going to go so slow, so, so slow until you can’t take no more you drag me onto my knees. Then after that, I am going to tease slowly and gently with my mouth until you grab my hair Master, grab it so hard I scream and force me, gagging me” She smiles, does she
Arriving at the club we walk in, Georgina and Liam nowhere in sight.“You stay here Alena, and I will see if I can see them.” I leave her standing against the bar leaning over it ordering drinks, is she doing that on purpose? If she leans forward a bit more, we will see everything!Shaking my head I walk around and can’t see them anywhere, giving up I walk back to the bar, someone is standing with Alena. His arm is around her, and he is laughing. I recognise him, but I don’t like how his hand is slowly sliding down Alena’s back, and she is letting it.Walking over I stand behind them, Alena looking back and smiling.“Marcus, you remember Daz right?” Oh, I do remember Daz, pushing myself in between them his arm folds,“How are you Daz? Any new crazy girlfriends?” He flinches shaking his head.“No, no one yet still holding out for someone if I am honest.” I look at him, acting interested but really I am not, everyone knows that person is Alena.“Oh is she that good she’s worth staying s
“What’s happened?” Moving I hug her, my heart still beating in my chest.“You that is what, tell me next time please, I have been searching the house for twenty minutes, I even called Jackson.” Her arms wrap around me, hell I thought I had lost her, just like that.“Sorry, I didn’t think. I am fine.” She moves back, turning in a circle.“See, nothing wrong, totally fine. Let’s get packing.” Sitting we pack away a suitcase each for the kids. Alena carries on while I go down to cook, walking around the kitchen I make us dinner, Alena coming down looking exhausted already.“Early night for you tonight” She nods not even trying to argue with me, sitting we eat. Alena is quiet the whole time.“Why don’t you go get some sleep now? Honestly, there is no need for you to sit awake.” She nods and walks upstairs, I will even get the kids if she is still asleep, sitting in the living room I turn the tv on, sitting and watching random stuff.The time comes to get the kids, and as much as I want to
I throw on a pair of slacks and walk out, Jackson stood there in the hall waiting.“She came then.”I nod walking towards the room.“Good, the first thud I thought you fell off the bed, then the scream had me worried it was Max but checking her room was empty and the second thud came from your room, so I figured she had.”“Yeah, I walked in turned around, and she was standing there waiting”. I shake my head to myself, I took a risk there doing that to her, a huge risk.“What happened?” He looks at me sensing my doubt.“Nothing bad I don’t think. She just kept pushing for me to be me, to stop hiding and take control.” His eyes widen, he knows what I am like.“She cried, a lot but still didn’t tell me to stop even when I asked her she said not to. I need to clean the room.”“I will help, and you can tell me what you did, and how she reacted, so I know, I won’t do it myself, but if she gets that side from you that is a good thing.” Nodding I open the door walking in we clean the room, Ja
Walking to the office, I sit down with Jackson looking at me.“No way, even just to cuddle she didn't look comfortable. It may take time, if she is like this in a few weeks, it stops." Jackson nods, clearly agreeing her not being comfortable with doing anything with me with Jackson around isn’t good.“Right, bed for me, if you need me just come wake me." Walking out I go back to my room. Closing the door I rest my head against it and sigh. As I turn I stop, my eyes taking her in.“Sorry Master, I thought I should change first.” She stands smiling, her body looking perfect, heels and stockings, but other than that totally naked.“Would you like a picture?” She giggles.“Why would I need a picture when I have you?” I'm frozen, taking her in. I think it's just shock that she just did it, I thought she was in bed. She steps towards me, hitting the play button on the music. Her body stops before me, standing she looks at me, then her hands stroke down my chest, her hips swinging as she beg
Walking in Georgina and Alena are sat talking and looking through printouts of houses.“Right, for you two. I am happy with all these, Georgina has found houses local to each one as well. So you two decide which house and location are the best.” She hands us both a pile of sheets. Sitting at the table with go through them, Alena and Georgina cooking and talking.“You think she is giving a hint here Marcus?” I laugh and nod.“Yeah, considering for every one house in this country there are about four in America.”“Okay, if you're happy with it, throw the ones here away and pick from America?” He looks at me, and I nod.“Hell yeah, no arguing from me, let’s move to America.” Laughing I push the ones from this country away, sitting another hour we look over the pictures getting it down to two.“Alena, Georgina,” Jackson calls them over, sitting at the table Jackson places the two sheets down in front of them“Two houses, you two need to decide this part.” They turn over the sheets, Alena
My alarm wakes me and I get ready, walking down I grab a coffee, when Jackson comes down looking at me.“I’m coming, I left Alena a note, there is no way I am just going to sit and wait.” Grabbing his coat he follows me out, and I drive us the three hours to the court. The trip is done in silence. Nothing right now is right to talk about. I stop outside the court and both of us just look at the doors. Waiting for the other to move. I guess I will. Getting out of the car Jackson follows and we walk into the courtroom and sit down. We sit where they will see us. Jake is brought up first, then Roxy, their eyes catching ours but don't linger as they quickly avert their eyes away.Roxy's barrister stands up."My client made a full confession and admitted to all charges that were put before her. Yes, he was the one who used the gun, but she had no part in the torment of the family, the boxes, and such. She did not intend to physically harm anyone, and Mr Jake O'Brian used her broken mental
“In we go kitten.” I get out of the car walking into the house Alena follows me.“Honestly, after Melanie how did you have the energy for more?” Jackson laughs looking at her, and she looks embarrassed, seriously embarrassed.“Sorry.” Her head lowers, and we both look at her confused.“Oi, we agreed on no apologising, and why would you apologise anyway, you did nothing wrong in fact you did something right you let it happen around people that could see.”“Wait, surely she has at some point let you do that around people?” Jackson shakes his head, and I honestly feel shocked.“Other than at the business, those days when the blinds are up, and staff can check in no, never has she agreed or thrown caution to the wind and let me do what you did, so to me, that is an achievement.” He walks to Alena pulling her to him.“I love you kitten, go get a shower, I will be up in five minutes to cuddle and sleep.” He kisses her gently, and she walks off, turning to me I am ready for some sort of argu
