"I'm sorry for everything I did in the past. I want us to reunite as a family. I want to be involved in my child's life," Julian said to Ava, his voice laced with sincerity as he held her hand. Ava shook her head, her finger pointed accusingly to his chest. "Now, you want me because i have a child with you? It's too late, Julian," she replied. "Ava, we can make this work. Just give me a chance to make everything right," he said to her in a pleading voice. She remained silent, trying to pull her hand away but Julian held it tight.

"I don't know, I just got a random call and .. Listen, we have to go home," Julian replied, his brow furrowed. He left money on the table for the uneaten breakfast. As we drove back home, my mind raced with the worst case scenarios. "I hope they are okay. I won't forgive myself if anything happens to them," I muttered, my voice trembling.Julian placed a reassuring hand on my lap, his touch warm and comforting. "Everything will be fine, just calm down," he said firmly, but I detected a hint of nervousness beneath his calm demeanor.As we approached the house, my heart racing, everything seemed in order. Julian pulled the car to a halt, and I opened the door, my palms growing sweaty."Here, in case anything goes wrong," Julian said, handing me a gun. I grasped it tightly, the familiar weight providing a sense of security
Ava's povAs I slowly opened my eyes, a gentle groan escaped my lips. I felt strong hands wrapped around me, and my gaze fell upon Julian's serene face beside me.

My cheek flushed with embarrassment as I wondered how he knew I was staring. "Good morning darling," he whispered, opening his eyes which sparkled with affection. "Good morning," I muttered.

"Yes, I slept well, even though I don't remember how I got here," I replied."I brought you here, and I hope you don't hate me anymore," Julian whispered. "I don't know," I said.

Alex's povI paced around the lounge, a drink in one hand and a cigarette in another. My mind racing with thoughts of how to get Ava and Julian. I swear, I would make them suffer this time. The door pushed open, and Max walked in. "Any news?" I asked him impatiently."No, boss. Julian isn't in America now," he replied, his eyes cast downward. I took a sip of my drink, dragging my cigar along, trying to calm my nerves."What do we do? I have tried calling Ava but her number is not reachable," I said with a groan. "We can track Julian or get information from one of his guys downstairs," Max suggested, and my eyes widened. "His guys downstairs? In my house?" I asked in disbelief. "I'm sorry for not telling you. Madam Ava caught one of Julian's guys who came to spy on us," he said. "Why didn't I hear of this?" I demanded, feeling pissed. "I'm sorry, boss. I was too caught up with finding her to remember," he apologized. I waved him off, thinking about what to do. "Yes!" I muttered
Julian's povI groaned as Ava smashed her lips against mine. I had been resisting the urge to devour her, to take her right there but she was just too sexy. Grabbing her ass, i pulled her closer to me. She moaned, kissing me hungrily, her tongue dancing with mine. But as I glanced over at the kids, reality struck, and I pulled away, my heart racing. "Julian," Ava muttered, her voice husky and her eyes blazing with desire. "The kids," I whispered and she groaned. "I want you as much as you want me but we need to protect the kids from seeing us together," I said, my tone softening.Ava's cheeks reddened with embarrassment as she palmed her face, shaking her head. "Gosh, I'm such a bad mother," she muttered. "What are you saying? Just because you want to have sex doesn't mean you are bad, okay?" I tried to assure her. She shot me a glare and ran upstairs. I sighed, waiting in the kitchen and thinking of ways to calm my raging desire."Thank goodness," I muttered under my breath aft
Ava's povAs Julian handed me the bowl of flour, his finger brushed against mine, sending a shiver down my spine. "Thanks," I muttered, trying to sound nonchalant, but my heart raced with the brief touch. I moved away from him, trying to compose myself. Julian's eyes locked on mine, his intense gaze made my stomach flutter. "I'm excited to taste your cookies too. It's been so long, and I barely remember how they taste," he said. I bit my lip to avoid talking, trying to ignore the memories that flooded my mind. Instead, I focused on mixing the dough."So, where is the gold?" Julian asked, I turned to him crossing my arms across my chest."Why asking about the gold all of a sudden? You kidnapped me remember?" I said with an attitude.He sighed, pinching his nose as he leaned against the fridge. "What can i do to make you like me?" He questioned. "Let me go, Julian," I replied.

Ava's pov As I woke up from the bed, I yawned and stretched, feeling a sense of determination wash over me. I was resolute to find a way out of this place, even if it meant pretending to want Julian back. After taking a shower in the bathroom, I slipped in a red short dress. I enhanced my features with makeup. I smiled, staring at my reflection in the mirror, thinking. Men and their cheating nature won't pull me down, never. "Good morning, mommy," Aiden said with a yawn, breaking my thoughts. "Morning my prince charming," I gave him a smile. He grinned as he took in my appearance. "You look beautiful. Are we going to see daddy?" He asked. I sighed, feeling a pang of guilt. "We will see daddy later, but we must enjoy out time here and make the best out of it," I replied. "I really like Diamond, she is like a sister to me. Who is her daddy to us? He is so nice," Aiden asked curiously. I hesitated, unsure how much to reveal. "Her daddy is mommy's friend okay? Now, go shower like
Alex's povI watched with a smile as the car drove out of the compound, feeling a sense of relief wash over me. Finally, I had the house to myself. "Max and Maria!" I yelled. They hurried towards me, their eyes on the floor. "You can take the day off until your boss returns with the kids," I said, dismissing them."Okay boss," they replied and left. Few minutes later, they appeared well dressed. I noticed Max holding Maria's hand in a protectively, but I choose to ignore it. "We will leave now, boss," Max said, and I waved them off. After they left the house, i made some calls, inviting some girls over to the house. As I waited for them, I set the mood with music and candles.I wore only my briefs, feeling carefree and ready to have a good time. "Hello daddy," one of the girls, Vikky said, walking into the room with a seductive smile. My mouth curved into a smile as i pulled her close to me."Hey papi," the other girl, Liya chimed in, joining us. I hugged them both."How are you
Ava's povHurt flashed in Julian's eyes my words, and I felt a sense of satisfaction. "What from Alex in exchange of our freedom?" I asked. "I will release you when i want to. I want nothing from that bastard but my son, Ava," Julian replied. "Aiden is not your son just like Diamond is not Alex's. You are just a sperm donor," I snapped. "Shut up!" He yelled at me angrily. I shut my mouth seeing he was getting mad. My eyes closed voluntarily and my mind wandered around.Would Alex find out? Would Julian want to take Aiden away from me? What would we be doing in the house? "Let me show you to your room. I told Lucas to buy clothes for you and the kids," Julian said. I followed him behind upstairs, he stopped in front of a room pushing it open. "Aiden wil share the room with you," he informed me, then he walked away. Entering into the room, I saw my son sleeping peacefully on the bed. I walked towards the bed and layed on it. Kissing Aiden's forehead, and pulling him closer to me.
Ava's povMy heart thumped heavily in my chest as Julian drove us to an unknown destination. I was supposed to be at Aiden's school meeting but now I was a captive. Aiden, sensing my unease, clung to my hand. I had no weapon on me, and even if I did, I couldn't escape from Julian with two kids. "Mommy, why aren't we going to school anymore?" Aiden asked, his face scrunched up in worry. I forced a smile, trying to reassure him. "We will go later, okay?" But he didn't seem satisfied and his eyes lingered on me with concern. Diamond rested her head on my laps, and I stroked her hair, trying to distract myself.The car pulled into a halt, and the door opened.
