***Mature Content***ReeceI have died and gone to heaven. This incredible woman is my wife. She is timidly walking out of the bathroom in a black lace bra that highlights her perfect boobs and matching lace panties that barely cover anything. If she thought she was doing herself favors by putting on my white button down shirt, she has another thing coming.It’s taking all the effort I have left to keep myself planted right here on the bed. The way she looks right now is better than any wet dream I have ever had.“Come here.” I beckon her over with a flick of my finger. She slowly moves towards me, biting on her lower lip like she is unsure. I have to remember this is all new for her, but she is unconsciously doing everything that drives me crazy.She walks up and stands in between my legs. My hands automatically find her hips and slide to her perfect ass as I pull her flush to me. Her hands slide to my shoulders then to the back of my neck.“Do you have any idea how beautiful you are?
LindseyI never understood what the pull was to have s*x until last night. Reece made me feel amazing. While I am glad I waited for him because of the way he took care of me, I now understand people wanting to try out different partners before settling on ‘the one.’I lay there, very early morning light creeping in the window, in the warmth that I associate with Reece, not opening my eyes, wanting to savor the aftermath of our night together. But, I also knew whirlwind Brandon was probably already up and making preparations for our wedding today.As if I conjured him, by thinking about him. An over enthusiastic knock at the door and his cheery morning voice let me know he was coming in whether we liked it or not. Before I could truly register what that meant, the door came flying open and Brandon sauntered in wearing a cranberry colored suit with matching shoes and black tie. He took one look at me pressed up to Reese and smiled. I looked around myself and realized the sheet had slippe
LindseyWe step out of the car and Angie helps me adjust my dress and make sure everything is picture perfect. She looks amazing in her off the shoulder cranberry colored dress. I think everything fits her perfectly without trying. The sheer material falling off her shoulders highlights her ivory skin and her raven hair is pulled into a loose messy bun behind her right ear. Her make-up is simple, similar to mine.She gives me a tight hug and then we both start following Brandon around the side of the building down a cobbled pathway and through two more vine covered archways to a garden with high vine and flower covered walls making the space feel intimate and private.At the opposite end of the garden I see Reece’s massive form filling out a tux jacket to almost breaking point. His head is down and his hands are in his pockets. He looks lost in thought.I don’t even hesitate or wait to be told to move. Everything in me wants to be near him, like that is where I belong and this is far t
Reece“ARE YOU F**KING KIDDING ME REECE?! What were you thinking, marrying that child without my consent?” My grandfather is raging after the girls left. “Do you realize what you have done to this family? You have ruined us all now, all of our plans have been f**ked in a matter of stupid hormonal moments from you. You have never been this impulsive before, you have to leave now, while she is being distracted. We will get this annulled and you can complete your union with Dominique like you were supposed to. I will make your excuses to the family. Just go now.” He sits down and rubs his hands over his face as if I am the one being unreasonable. I just let him yell and get it out, my rage growing as he insults Lindsey. I finally break when he just assumes I am going to leave her, just because he said so.“You had better start explaining yourself old man. You have exactly five minutes to tell me what your real issue is.” I growl out and cross my arms over my chest, Max matching my moveme
LindseyI can tell whatever was said after Angie and I left Reece and the guys really affected him. He hasn’t put me down since he carried me down the aisle. He said he would tell me later and we haven’t had a moment without other people around the whole day, but something feels off, like he’s keeping me close out of fear.I have to take a deep breath and trust him. He hasn’t lied to me yet, I just hope he won’t keep whatever this is from me thinking he is protecting me. He settles in a chair sitting me sideways across his lap wrapping both arms around me. I snuggle into his chest, and rest my head on his shoulder, letting his body heat calm me down. Brandon brings us both water and I am so thankful. I don’t know if I could start drinking anything right now.“Well, my lovelies, and Bossman, after that very interesting ceremony are you ready for the rest of the wolves?” Brandon laughs and I try to smile, but I can’t even force it. I don’t know if I can handle any more bulls**t today fro
Thank you for your patience while this story has been on hold for a bit. I had a family emergency that required my full attention for much longer than I anticipated. I am back to the keyboard now!I am writing regularly again and editing as quickly as possible. My regular posting schedule will be twice a week as I build up my chapters. I hope to be back to a daily posting schedule by the end of July. I appreciate all who read and continue to help me grow as a new writer.As always constructive comments are always welcomed and appreciated.
LindseyWe got to our hotel in record time. Reece ushers me straight to the very large bathroom and lifts me on to the sink to inspect my arm. He looks terrified, like it wasn’t just a little bit of glass. For some reason this tantrum of Dominique’s has affected him more than anything else she has tried so far.“It doesn’t look like there is any glass in your arm. I’m so sorry about that, I should have been able to protect you better.” He gently caresses my face, looking almost broken.“I already told you, don’t do that. She is a leech that will not go away easily. We’ll figure something out, but this isn’t your fault, it’s hers. Now, help me out of this dress before I get blood all over it. I think there might be some pieces of glass stuck in here.” I gesture toward my cleavage and give him my best flirtatious look trying to distract him. Thank God it works. I watch his eyes dilate as they roam from my face and down my neck.I slowly work my shoulder straps down exposing my breasts. M
ReeceI roll over and stretch, reaching for Lindsey, hoping to get a little more sleep before we leave for our honeymoon. As I reach around the bed, though, I can't find her. I shoot up, my grandfather’s words ringing in my head. I frantically look around the room and find her sleeping at the dining table with the tabloids and magazines scattered everywhere.I look at her face and it is clear she has been crying. The tabloid under her cheek explains why. Dominique has been cornering me as often as possible for a month now. Showing up everywhere I go. Even Brandon can’t find the leak in our operation. I think it is my grandfather, but we have kept things from him as well, so I know it’s not only him or he has several people reporting to him.The tabloid under her face is a picture of me and Dominique the day before I met Lindsey. My grandfather talked me into having dinner with Dominique and she got sloppy drunk and was hanging all over me. Of course her picture-hungry mongrels caught
Epilogue Lindsey Well Reece was true to his word and has kept me barefoot and pregnant for the better part of 3 years. He was intrigued by the idea of practicing to make babies and took his job very seriously, and so did his DNA. When I am done with this pregnancy I will be 21, almost 22 and have 5 kids under the age of three because fate seems to like to mess with me and I was blessed with two sets of twins. Angie is convinced that our oldest, Carter, would have been a twin or was probably a twin, but due to all of the trauma he was my miracle baby. The thought makes me laugh and also makes me sad that I might have had complications we knew nothing about. He was what helped me get through the worst of the healing from my time in captivity with Vaughn Benedict. Although I wasn’t harmed much, the memory of the isolation and waking up alone still haunts me and Old Man Raines’ death gives me nightmares. The dreams seem to be more vivid as I get further along in my pregnancies too. Reec
Reece “What if the baby is yours?” Angie pulls up a chair and sits so we are almost at eye level and cocks her eyebrow at me. “I’m really not sure how, we never talked about kids and were always careful. I was always careful with her.” “Always?” She has this sarcastic tone that tells me she knows more about my sex life with Lindsey than I do. “As far as I know, we only had one time that I didn’t wrap it up.” “So, what you’re telling me is you need to get off your doomsday mind track and wait to hear from the doctors and talk to Lindsey. It only takes one time, genius.” She looks like she wants to smack me upside the head. And she’s seriously considering it. I really need her to stop pushing my buttons right now. “But when you do go in and talk to your wife, and my best friend, you will do it calmly and respectfully. Because I will beat your ass if you hurt her with your accusations after everything she just went through. Like you said you only had contact with her twice while she
Lindsey What the f*ck? Cousin? I am stunned and have nothing to respond to that revelation. “We have a deal.” Benedict says after I sign the documentation with all of my stipulations written in and initialed by both of us. “Come get your girl cuz, we just opened up the IP address for you to search. Although, I wouldn’t mind a bit more alone time with her, seeing as you’ve been with mine, it’s only fair.” He laughs at Reece’s look of pure fury as he touches my face again. This time I did pull away and gave him my most murderous look. He better not come anywhere near me, the sleezeball. Dominique looked offended at the exchange, but what can she expect, this douchebag thinks he has everything. What he doesn’t realize is I didn’t sign everything and I used his inability to keep his hands off Dominique to my advantage while his lawyers and I handled the paperwork. And his lawyers really aren’t that smart or they straight up let me get away with signing my maiden name and ‘under duress’.
Lindsey As I am being escorted down to meet with, I assume Benedict, I make a decision. I believe I am going to die here no matter what I do, so I need to think through what is going to happen to everyone that depends on us. “You look positively radiant today” Benedict sneers from the table as I walk in. What the hell does that mean? Does he know about me being pregnant? I should assume no one here is on my side and figure he knows, but is probably playing me to see if I confirm his suspicions or what doctor Beth told him. I hate not having information. And where the hell is Dominique? “That’s the result of being fed for the first time in days, I guess.” I try to keep my smartass remark to a minimum, but I also want to see if he will let anything slip as well. We can both play this game. “How can I help you today Mr. Benedict?” I try to let as much sarcasm lace my sugar sweet tone. “You know what I want, and I will have it today.” He gestures for me to sit across from him.
Lindsey HOLY SH*T! HOLY SH*T! HOLY SH*T! I can’t move and I’m barely breathing. I think I’m in shock. I sit there staring at the screen, I know Reece is still in front of me, but I’m not really seeing him, not anymore. Someone shot a gun right behind me and a thump tells me someone was hit. The gunshot came out of nowhere. There were no threats made, we were just having a conversation. Although, I was trying to stall for enough time for Reece and Max to hopefully get closer to figuring out where we are. The old man was just whimpering like the weak little man he truly is, was. How he ever ran a company like Raines Corporation is beyond me. He was a great actor I guess. I really should feel bad for him, but I am just scared for myself now. They aren’t going to hesitate to do what is needed to get what they want now, and they just proved it. “Every time we all meet and this isn’t resolved, someone else loses the privilege to go home.” Benedict says from somewhere near me. It
Reece “Reece.” Her breathy little whisper is all my heart needed to jumpstart and start racing like it was trying to jump out of my chest. “Lindsey, baby.” That's all I can get out. I just stare at her beautiful face. She’s thinner, her cheeks are sunken in and her hair is dull and flat, but she’s alive. I can feel my heart beating wildly in my chest like it trying to jump out and get to her. There is so much I want to say, so much I need to say. We talked about what to do once we were able to get her on, but I just froze, my mind seizing up completely at the sight of her sitting there. “First things first, Mr. Raines. We have made contact as requested, you see your wife is unharmed, now we want the documents signed and you can have her back within the next 24 hours.” A deep voice off camera instructs. Lindsey looks down and if I wasn’t staring at her so intently I would have missed the slight head shake she gave me. She’s telling me not to agree, but what the hell else am
Reece We are now going on a month of Lindsey missing. We have been tracking Eyler for a few weeks and Conrad is building a case against him, just on his activities here. Thank God Eyler doesn’t look too closely at his phone. I do know that they are trying to turn people he has contact with into informants, but it all takes time. I did receive a proof of life photo about a week and a half ago, but that is all I have heard. It was of Lindsey sleeping. She at least looked peaceful, but I could only see her face, the covers pulled all the way up to her chin. I don’t know if she’s actually sleeping or knocked out. I can’t see if she’s injured or harmed in any way, but it’s the only thing I have of her right now. I have the photo in my wallet and pull it out every chance I get. I have actually started talking to her photo. Telling her it’s going to be alright and we are coming for her, that I am coming for her. I have started asking her what she would do when I come across a situ
Reece The elevator to the top floor seems like it is taking forever. I just want to get this over with and clear up all of the misconceptions that have been going around for the last decade in my business. When the bell chimes as we hit our floor, Max and I walk out full of angered purpose. I am doing a full house cleaning, but I also need to know if any of these guys have information on Lindsey’s whereabouts. I trust no one outside of Max, Brandon, Angie and Anton. I feel like all of them have had some part in this for their own gain and Eyler and the old man were just crazy enough to take it this far. “Down to business gentlemen.” I say sitting at the head of the table. Max to my right. All of the guys look paler and more ragged than usual. Being cut-off doesn’t suit many of them. Only Reg seems to have been able to maintain his usual lifestyle. Good, I think to myself. They know I mean business now and won’t be complacent any longer. “I’m glad your investigations are ov
Lindsey “What are you going to say to Benedict? We need to have the same or at least a similar story as to why I am here. I still have to figure out what he wants exactly. I don’t believe he would put this much effort into taking over a company. From what I have heard he’s more likely to kill the person in his way and replace them with his own people. What’s he playing at?” “With your current condition and the test I have run, I can easily claim you are diabetic. Similar signs and symptoms and necessities to control it as your pregnancy. Like food and vitamin regulation, also lowering your stress levels.” “Okay, I guess that works. I don;t know anything about the condition though.” “That will work in our favor. I can keep regular, daily checks on you, which is what I would do with an actual newly diagnosed patient here.” “What about me?” Dominique almost whines. “Is he going to try and keep us separate? I’m pretty sure she is the only reason I am still alive right now
