LAURA'S POVAfter our night of passionate lovemaking, Bryan pulled me into his arms. A bright smile played on my lips lazily as he kissed my forehead, and I drifted into sleep.I heard his phone ring, and I groaned slowly, turning to find a better position to sleep."What the fuck is going on?" I heard him groan in frustration as he picked up the call, his voice still sleepy."Shit," he cursed under his breath, making me snap my eyes open immediately as I looked in his direction, wondering if everything was okay."My love, what's wrong?" I inquired as I sat up, the sheets dropping to my waist as I watched him put on his shorts, searching for a shirt."Julie's water broke," he replied, and my eyes widened."Like right now? It's 2 a.m.," I uttered in shock."I'm coming with you," I added as I got down and slipped on my room slippers. I was already anxious, and I wasn’t even at the hospital yet."Babe..." he trailed off, concerned."I know it's your family, but I want to be there too. Ju
LAURA'S POVI was fast asleep on the bed when I felt someone walk into the room. My eyes snapped open and softened when I saw it was Bryan, and there was no cause for alarm."What happened to your arm?" I asked, standing up from the bed and walking over to him immediately."Hey, I'm fine," he assured me, but I refused to believe him."You don't look fine to me, Bryan," I stated, a frown on my face. I always had a bad feeling about his outing today, and this just proved me right."We got attacked, but we're good, I promise," he assured me, kissing my forehead, but I refused to buy all that. He was hiding something from me."I have a mission tomorrow night. Mikoy is gonna be there," I informed him before I could stop myself, and he froze."I'm coming with you," he declared almost immediately."Bryan..." I tried to argue."I didn't ask. I'm coming, that's final," he declared, making me anxious."Bryan, I only told you because we promised no secrets between us. I have been taking care of
LAURA'S POVI moaned in pleasure as he kissed me sweetly. The kiss felt so sinful yet sweet, and his naughty hands roamed my body, playing and squeezing my b**bs."Bryan, please..." I cried out in pleasure, as he latched onto my hard nipples, touching me in all my weak spots.I was supposed to be ready for tonight's mission, but here I am, doing something so sinfully dirty with Mr. Finch."Bryan, the be..." I stammered."Turn around, sweetheart," he commanded, and my eyes widened."Wh...what?" I asked, stuttering at how sexy his command was at that point."Turn, baby. If I repeat myself, I'm gonna spank your ass red," he warned, and that turned me on as I spun around before I could stop myself.He patted my legs, and I heard him unzip his trousers. I waited curiously, my desire building up. I was soaking wet by that point. I took off my robe and heard his sharp intake of breath. I cried out the moment he slide into me.My jaw dropped open as I shut my eyes tight, breathing rapidly. I
LAURA'S POVIt was time for the dance, and I knew just what I wanted.As I moved to the dance floor, I could feel pairs of eyes burning holes into my skin.One belonged to my man. I could recognize his intense gaze because it did something sweet to my insides. The other belonged to the girl under the mask. I held her gaze, and her unfamiliar eyes made me curious.*Who is she? She's with Mikoy, and that makes her an enemy of mine.*Lastly, I held Mikoy's dirty gaze as I swayed my hips to the music while different people moved to the dance floor.He’d come over to me because the old bastard couldn't help himself around beautiful women.I did a countdown: 5, 4, 3, 2, and 1. I felt his dirty hand snake around my waist.My blood went cold as memories of his different assaults filled my mind."Beautiful," he whispered into my ear, and the stench of smoke hit my nostrils.Mikoy has always been a disgusting man, and this just proves the extent of his madness."Dance," he whispered softly, yet
BRYAN'S POV"How is she doing now? Is she okay?" Her best friend Kora inquired as she rushed into my room where Laura lay unconscious on the bed.We moved her to my place after the doctors were done with the most important treatment."She's still unconscious, but the doctor assured us she's out of danger," I responded, and she heaved a sigh of relief."Glad to hear that. I was worried when they told me what happened," she remarked, and I smiled."I caused it though, I made things worse," I mumbled, and she chuckled."Oh c'mon, it's not easy to be with Mikoy in one space and not want to end his life, not after everything he put our girl through," she said, and I pressed my lips tightly together."Be careful, Bryan. I know Laura would want this fight to end with everyone alive," she commented, and patted my back."I will come to check up on her again. Yvonne is awake," she informed me, and I murmured an okay."Everything is complicated, Cindy is part of Mikoy's team, meaning they planne
LAURA'S POVBryan has been the sweetest since I woke up. I was strangely craving noodles, so I asked him to make me some.He stared at me in amusement because noodles weren't something I craved on a normal day. But he left to make me some, after which I invited him to join me.We ended up eating together, and his phone rang in the middle of the meal. I stared at him curiously as he picked up.He looked shocked about whatever he heard at the other end because he started talking in monosyllables.Something told me deep down that something was off."Huh..." He trailed off and stopped himself from continuing."I need to go," he announced immediately after he hung up the call."Go where? It's evening, and I want you here with me," I replied, and he bit his lower lip."It's very important, baby, but I promise I will be fine," he expressed, and I sighed."At least tell me where you're going, I don't feel too good," I complained."Maybe you're worrying too much," he mentioned and kissed my fo
AUTHOR'S POV"Is he okay?" Diane inquired, as she rubbed her arms softly."Mom, you need to calm down, please. At least eat something, Bryan wouldn't like to see you in this condition," Stephanie complained, as she hugged her mother closely."I can't eat with all those pipes connected to his body. I'm so scared, I can't lose any of my children," she voiced her fear."Bryan is a fighter, he'll be fine. Just be strong," Stephanie assured her mommy, and she nodded slowly.She had to be strong for her children. Bryan wasn't going to die on her, and that's one thing she strongly believed, even as fear gnawed at her."Hello, ma'am, the lady is awake," one of the nurses reported."Laura is awake, Mother," Stephanie exclaimed happily and left with the nurse to Laura's ward.Laura's eyes fluttered open for the second time, she closed them immediately due to how the bright lights burned her eyes.She opened them again and winced at how sore her body felt, her throat dry and her head hurt."Brya
LAURA'S POV"He asked about Cris," I told my best friend, and Kora stared at me."And what did you tell him?" she questioned while folding some clean towels."Nothing, I didn't tell him. What would I have told him?" I frowned, even the thought kept a rotten feeling in my stomach."At least, Cris used to work for you, so he would let it slide. You don't know how men can be," she chuckled."Cris used to like me so much, there was a time we even kissed, like, made out," I said, scratching my neck nervously."Wait, did you guys sleep together?" she exclaimed, her jaw literally dropping."No, no, bestie, what would make you even think that?" I replied, and she raised both hands in surrender."Don't blame me, baby girl, that guy is smoking hot..." She trailed off."Plus, you guys used to make out in the past," she teased, and my cheeks heated up in embarrassment."Kora..." I whined, and she burst out laughing."Chill, it was in the past. Bryan also had a relationship with Sylvia, they even
