Tempting The Spitfire (Temptation Series Book 6) Chapter Seventy-Eight - Grandpa Ben Saves Them
Skylar sponged his upper body with extreme gentleness, taking care not to rub the minor scrapes and wounds that had almost healed. “Your upper body has healed well. In a few days, you’ll be perfectly fine.” “I feel better already. Maybe I’ll start working from tomorrow.” “Are you out of your mind? How can you even think about it? You still need rest, Christian,” she scolded him, helping him into a fresh shirt. Lillian knocked and came in to check. “Perfect. I think that’s all for today. I’ve arranged for a nurse to come over tomorrow to change your dressing.” Christian looked a little disappointed but smiled at his sister’s efforts. “You should rest now, Chris. Ever since you arrived from the hospital, you haven’t had a minute’s rest. Maybe it wasn’t a good idea to get you discharged so early,” scolded Grandpa Ben, walking into the room. He looked very stressed and Christian nodded, to ease his worries. Skylar went away to clear the mess while Grandpa Ben and Lillian helped Christ

Grandpa Ben was pronounced dead when they reached the hospital. Caleb called Lillian to inform her. “What happened, Caleb? Did you find Grandpa? Where is he now?” “Yes, we found Grandpa. Please come over to our hospital right away.” Lilian frowned on hearing his voice crack. Was he weeping? Her heart constricted with fear. Was something wrong with Grandpa? “What happened to Grandpa, Caleb? Is he critical?” “He’s no more!” whispered Caleb, breaking down totally. The phone fell from Lillian’s hand and she slumped to the chair in shock. “What happened? What did Caleb say?” asked Christian, anxiously waiting for her reply. Since morning, they had been waiting in the living room to get an update on Grandpa Ben. There has been no update so far.“They’ve rescued him.” She burst into tears unable to say a word more.“And? Why didn’t they bring him home?” asked Grandpa Phil. Granny was in the nursery tending to the twins since Lillian couldn’t.“Yes, where is he?” asked Christian anxiousl

Skylar noticed the longing in his tone, the desire in his voice. She couldn’t let him suffer for the next two months. She loved him, and it was her responsibility to keep him happy. “Are you experiencing pain anywhere after the physiotherapy?” Christian shook his head, making her look relieved. “My body is used to it now. Initially, the pain was unbearable.” Skylar smiled, her mind made up. She would try her best to please him. She wanted him to overcome his grief and lead a normal, happy life. “Good! Are you sleepy?” Christian raised an eyebrow at her quizzically. Now what was going on in her head? “No, why do you ask? Are you planning something?” Skylar blushed and got up to clear their dinner. “What? You didn’t answer me!” He watched her walk away without replying. “You’ll see!” she said near the door before disappearing. Christian waited impatiently for her to return. He was bursting with curiosity by now. After a few minutes, Skylar came inside and closed the door, flashing

After Two MonthsChristian and Skylar finally bade a tearful farewell to her grandparents, Caleb and his family. Seeing his miraculous improvement, Christian’s doctor had given him permission to travel. Christian couldn’t contain his excitement, and they packed up to leave the next day. “Keep us updated, Chris. Don’t overexert yourself,” said Lillian, with tears in her eyes. She still didn’t want her youngest sibling to leave, but Christian didn’t listen to her logic. Ever since Grandpa Ben died, Lillian almost doted on Christian like a mother. He didn’t mind, and neither did Skylar. “Don’t worry so much about me. I’ll call you every month. Happy?” Christian wiped her tears and hugged her. “No, I’ll wait for your call every week.” “Take care of yourself, Skye,” said Granny, hugging her to her bosom. “Yes, granny, you too.” “Video call us whenever you can,” said Grandpa Phil. “Sure, Grandpa.” Christian hugged her grandpa. After Grandpa Ben’s death, he had grown more attached to

Christian’s heart skipped a beat with excitement. He remembered how she had pushed him away the last time they were here. Her behavior had upset him so much. He had left home to go on a trip all by himself, only to return to get her. If he hadn’t returned that day, he wouldn’t have seen this change in his life. Maybe he wouldn’t have felt Skylar’s love at all! He had achieved the impossible in a matter of five months! He had made her realize her feelings for him. Skylar got up and caught his hand, leading him inside. She knew she had taken him by surprise again, but she wanted to make him happy. Once inside, she closed the door after her. Christian hesitated, his confidence wavering at the last moment. He was afraid he would fail her. What if she wasn’t satisfied? What if he was incapacitated? After his surgery, he wasn’t sure he could please her as well in bed as he could earlier! This was a fear that was eating him alive. It made him stop every time they made out with one another.

“First, enjoy what I’ve planned all day for you.” Christian tried to act unaffected, but her words echoed in his head all the time. He wished he could throw caution to the wind and make wild love to her! “I can’t wait to see what you’ve done all day. Was that why you sent me away?” Skylar excitedly followed him to the bedroom, eager to change for their date. He smiled and walked away towards the closet. Skylar freshened up and came out of the en-suite. Strangely, Christian wasn’t there in the bedroom. Wasn’t he getting ready too? She put on the beautiful, off-shoulder chiffon dress. The embroidered bodice clung to her curves while the skirt fell in layers all around her. She swirled in front of the mirror, loving the dreamy, romantic look. Brushing her hair she clipped on a pair of dainty diamond danglers. After a few minutes, she stepped out of the bedroom, looking around for Christian. Where could he be? Maybe in the dining room. She went to the dining room but strangely; he wasn

“Sure. You don’t need to ask me, Christian. I want you to have close friends like I do.” Christian looked genuinely happy at the prospect of reconnecting with Knox. In the evening, he dropped Skylar home. “I’ll come home in a couple of hours. Don’t miss me too much,” he said, planting a soft kiss on her forehead. “I won’t. I’ll video call the girls.” She walked away with a smile while Christian drove away towards Knox’s house. He still remembered the way, even after so many. There was a time when he spent all his vacations here with Knox and Andrea. He knew everything about them. Knox’s parents had a bitter marriage that ended in both of them committing suicide. It set the siblings against the very institution of marriage. He was the only person in the world who understood them. They stayed away from home after their parents' death. So it was a surprise to hear of their return. He hadn’t ever expected them to return. Christian parked his car in the driveway of the majestic Cromwel

Christian returned home only to find Skylar fast asleep, waiting for him on the patio. He felt guilty to have kept her waiting for so long. They had so much to catch up on that they soon lost track of time. He patted Skylar’s cheek tenderly to wake her up. If his leg would have been better, he would have carried her inside. Skylar stirred, waking up with a start. She immediately gasped to see him hovering over her. “Oh, I fell asleep.” She got up to follow him into the house. “Sorry to keep you waiting, baby! Knox and I lost track of time. We had so much to catch up on.” “And Andrea?” prodded Skylar, giving him a jealous look. “She was away at some club.” Skylar felt a little better to know that he wasn’t spending time with Andrea. “Did you have your dinner?” Christian shook his head. “Just some appetizers and beer. I wanted to have my dinner with you.” “I too wanted to eat with you. Shall we?” Christian nodded, relieved that she didn’t react to his late arrival. They ate togeth

Tempting The Spitfire (Temptation Series Book 6) Epilogue
Five Years Later “Wow! You’re looking so gorgeous, Skye! You look fresh as a daisy, like a virgin bride, marrying for the first time,” said Sienna while the others agreed. The last five years had been a roller-coaster ride for all of them. Motherhood and career had taken a toll on them. None of them could make it on Skylar’s first wedding anniversary. Therefore, she had dropped the idea of a reunion and party. Now, after five years, they planned to renew their vows in the presence of all their loved ones. The wedding would take place in the neighborhood church while the reception at Escapades. Maddox supervised everything to perfection, and they didn’t have to check even. “I know, right? Look at me! My hair is shedding from handling Axel and Alexander! I don’t understand how you guys handle your twins and husband,” complained Eva while fixing Skylar’s veil. “Maybe because Lucas isn’t like your Alexander!” said Sienna with a chuckle. They all giggled knowingly while Eva groaned.“I

“I’m glad you cleared your misunderstandings, Skylar. Now you can connect with them to your heart’s content like before,” said Christian. He led her towards their room to freshen up for the reception party to start in an hour. “I was very upset by their behavior at first, but later everything fell into place. They don’t want a treat now with their pregnancies. Why don’t we renew our vows on our first anniversary? We can plan it like a dream wedding and invite everyone!” “Great idea! We’ll do that. Now give me a kiss before we go down.”Skylar complied, capturing his lips in a gentle and lingering kiss. It portrayed her blissfully happy state. She was indeed now at peace with everything around her. “I want to see you this happy always!” he whispered against her lips. “I’m happy. Your presence in my life makes me happy!” He kissed her passionately, and Skylar gaped at her smudged makeup when he released her. “Oh no! You ruined my makeup.” She grabbed a tissue and started wiping it
Tempting The Spitfire (Temptation Series Book 6) Chapter Ninety-Three - Announcing Her Marriage To Her Gang
The response of their family overwhelmed Christian and Skylar. Even Erica was over the moon with happiness to know that Skylar was also pregnant. “I wish you too have twins like me.” “I wish the same too,” said Skylar unable to tell her she wanted both: a boy and a girl. “So I’ll have to plan two baby showers later,” said Lillian excitedly.“You can club it together. It’ll be easier,” suggested Erica. “Yes, we can plan it in your seventh month. It’ll be Skye's sixth.” They all agreed to the idea. They could plan the date and venue later at everyone’s convenience. Vivienne and Blade were the most excited at the prospect of having baby cousins. After spending three days with their family, they left for Miami Beach, where Hayley and Ashton had planned a beach wedding. Ashton had inherited a beach-facing mansion there from his former mentor and employer, Simon Baylor. In fact, Simon Baylor left the entire Baylor Group to Ashton after his death. They were happy for him since he deser
Tempting The Spitfire (Temptation Series Book 6) Chapter Ninety-Two - Blessed Indeed!
The next few weeks sailed by amidst fun, work, and lots of special heated moments between them. Christian planned a date every weekend and each of them was unique in their own way. Skylar was now quite comfortable around his group of reckless friends who frequented their home. Skylar didn’t mind, since her friends were the same. Christian’s therapy was going well. He had improved a lot in the past few weeks. The limp was almost gone and he could run unlike earlier. With the strength back in his legs, Christian was unstoppable. He trained with renewed energy now. At work, Skylar made excellent progress, making her mentor Mr. Fairbanks proud of her achievements. He was confident she could take over from him completely in three months. They kept in touch with their family back in Cleveland and New York. Erica was doing fine and had joined work. Expecting twin boys, they were excitedly on the lookout for names. Skylar’s grandparents were still staying with them in New York. Caleb and L

“When did you get all this done?” asked Skylar, noticing the mouth-watering fare served before them. With the romantic lighting and the soothing decor, the place looked more magical than ever before. “This time I sought Joanna’s help. I would have liked to do everything myself, but didn’t get time.” His eyes twinkled, catching the rays of the lights hanging around them. They lured her into their magical depths, promising her a night of passion soon to follow. “Still it blew my mind away! I must say Joanna did a wonderful job!” “Yes, she’s quite a pro at it!” There was an understated excitement in the air as they enjoyed a quiet moment with one another. “Yes, we can make use of her talent more!” Christian chuckled, feeding her a piece of the roasted chicken Katherine had made for them. “Even Katherine has done a wonderful job. So are we going to Escapades tomorrow?” Skylar didn’t want to go to the club. She was apprehensive about meeting the rest of his reckless friends. She prefe
Tempting The Spitfire (Temptation Series Book 6) Chapter Ninety - Marital Bliss
Skylar gaped at him for a moment, absorbing the bombshell he had just dropped. Then a slow smile spread across her face as realization dawned on her. With almost all her friends pregnant, she felt left out whenever they discussed, unable to contribute to their pregnancy woes. Now she could! She just hoped she got pregnant! “Really? I want to get pregnant with your baby!” she gasped, making Christian’s jaws drop with surprise. He hadn’t expected her to be so eager to embrace motherhood since he wasn’t eager to embrace fatherhood so early. He wanted to enjoy his married life for at least two years before planning to have children. “I wanted children too, but not so early.” He sighed, since it was actually God’s will. They had no say in the matter. “If it has to happen early, it will. It’s destiny, Christian.” “Yes, you’re right. It’s no use pondering over it. Come closer baby!” He grinned at her, pulling her closer, right into his lap. The water calmed them, invigorated their minds,
Tempting The Spitfire (Temptation Series Book 6) Chapter Eighty-Nine - In The Heat Of The Moment
With a savage sense of possession, Christian captured her lips, shoving his tongue into her mouth. The intensity of the kiss took her by surprise and she moaned with pleasure. He captured her feminine moans of bliss, swirling his tongue and devouring her hungrily. It was more of a kiss to vent out the pent-up hunger he had kept buried for so long. After getting a taste of her, he had been addicted to her sweetness, but Erica’s health prevented them from enjoying the trip. She kissed him back, making him groan as a shock of pleasure spiraled through his body. He wanted more now! His fingertips skimmed along her throat, trailing down to the buttons of her top. In a split second, he undid them and eased the top off her body. Next went the rest of her clothes. Skylar lifted her eyes to meet his glittering, lust-filled gaze. He gently cupped her breasts, feeling the voluptuous mounds that overflowed in his hands. Pressing his thumb over a taut peak, he sucked the other into his mouth. H
Tempting The Spitfire (Temptation Series Book 6) Chapter Eight-Eight - Missed You Like Crazy
Christian was sitting in the reception room waiting for her when she walked into the house. “So, how did the wedding go? Did Alexander whisk Eva away with him?”“Yes, he did. There was war, but no bloodshed thankfully! I’ll get myself a drink. It was too much for a day!” She got a bottle of water and emptied its contents. Then she explained everything that happened to Christian. However, her relief was short-lived. Erica was again critical, and they re-admitted her in the middle of the night. “You can go back and rest, Skylar. I’m here,” said Christian, as they sat outside the Emergency Unit. “No, I can’t leave you alone here.” She knew his condition. It wasn’t very good either. He needed more rest than she did.For the next two days, they took turns at the hospital. Skylar didn’t get time to catch up with her friends anymore. They eagerly waited for Sebastian’s return. After five days, they brought Erica home. She was pregnant with twins and her condition was critical with both f
Tempting The Spitfire (Temptation Series Book 6) Chapter Eighty-Seven - A Melodramatic Wedding
They reached Bellevue Hospital after an hour. Skylar immediately inquired after Eva, but it was strange she had taken a long leave for almost a fortnight. Was it because of her wedding to Alexander? “She is pregnant and her wedding is coming up!” the nurse informed her. Skylar was shocked to hear the news. She knew about her wedding, but not about her pregnancy. The last time she connected with Alyssa, she only found out about her upcoming wedding. Even Hayley cribbed about her own love life. So who was Eva marrying? How was it she didn’t know? Did Eva find her happiness at last with Alexander Van Every? “Let’s go to see Erica,” said Christian, leading her away from the neonatal department. They went to the emergency department and met Sebastian in the lobby. “I was waiting for you,” said a haggard-looking Sebastian. “How is she now?” asked Skylar. “She’s still on drips.” “How did her health deteriorate so much?” asked Christian worriedly. “She was exceptionally nauseous.
