Thank you for reading. I suppose our couple will have to try again. Will they have kids? How many do you think? The next chapter is tomorrow morning.
On the bed, Carlos sat behind Kate. He pulled her in between his legs. He wrapped his arms around her waist and kissed her cheek. He reminded, “I’m sorry about the miscarriage, but, just to remind you, we just got married. We still have many years ahead of us to have a family.” “There is nothing more important for me than having a family, but at the same time, I don't want you to feel bad or feel obliged to get pregnant right away.” Kate turned to Carlos and hugged him tightly. She sighed and replied, “But I wanted it, and ... It’s heartbreaking.” Pecking on Kate’s neck, he acknowledged, “I know. I wanted this too. I want my mini Kate, and I want a little Devil.” “We won’t stop, and we won’t give up,” Carlos suggested. He leaned back and looked into her eyes. “Let’s see the doctor tomorrow. In fact, it’s probably best that I have myself checked too… We are in this together.” Kate nodded. She forced a smile and echoed, “We are in this together.” *** The next day, the couple visit
“Are you okay, Alex?” Carlos asked, seeing how his friend was puffing his cheeks repeatedly. “Yeah. Um.” Alexander gulped. The swell beneath his pants wasn’t getting any release. It did not help that under the table, Savannah was practically squeezing his manhood with her palm, feeling his size. ‘Whatever happened to my innocent Savy?’ Alexander asked in silence. Returning his regard to Carlos and his family, Alexander declared, “I think I’m feeling a little unwell." He turned to Savannah and said, “Must be from that drink we ate across the street.” “Oh, yeah. That was it. Definitely,” Savannah acknowledged. “Yeah, I think we better get home,” Alexander quickly said, excusing himself from the Wrights. “It’s all been a pleasure hanging out with your family, Carlos.” After giving his respects to the head of the Wrights, he rushed Savannah outside the mansion and into the driveway where his car was parked. He pushed Savannah against the body of the vehicle and hissed. “You’ve be
“Thanks for coming, man,” Alexander said, giving Carlos a manly embrace. He turned to Kate and greeted, “Kate, thank you for arranging this dinner.” “Of course,” Kate answered. “I heard about your father from Carlos. Maybe he wants to make up for lost times?” Alexander forced a smile. He turned to Savannah before addressing Kate’s suggestion. “I don’t know. I’ve known him long enough to know that he does not care. If it does happen, it's going to be a miracle." “Maybe, he realized your potential after winning the US Open,” Carlos suggested, and Savannah nodded in agreement. Still, Alexander was doubtful. He said, “I guess we will see.” Evan Jenkins never told Alexander his reason for visiting. He simply insisted that he meet him for a special dinner. Kate had booked a private conference for their dinner at the First Diamond Hotel. She ordered the best dishes for that night, knowing that Alexander was somewhat anxious about meeting Evan Jenkins. It took only a few minutes befo
“What’s so funny, Alex? I really felt hurt at how your father looked down at me, you know!” Savannah scolded. Her eyes narrowed. Alexander sat on the sofa and offered his hand to her. He signaled her to his lap and urged, “Come here.” Savannah sat on his lap and wrapped her arms around his neck. She rested her head on the slope of his neck and remarked, “I hate to say this, Alex, but your father and stepmother are not my types of in-laws.” “I’m sorry,” Alexander said. He pecked on her forehead and assured her, “Don’t feel bad about how my father intends to cut me off. I can survive. While it’s true, I have a share in his company, and he gives me money from time to time - it is his way of compensating for not being a father to me. Even until now, he is splurging me with money and cars.” “But Savy, I don’t need his money.” He chuckled and added, “And I certainly won’t be poor without my father’s help. Whatever gave you that idea? Did you forget I won 2.6 Million dollars from last ye
French Open Women’s Singles Finals. For a fleeting moment, Savannah turned to the VIP seats and saw Alexander mouthed, ‘You are doing great, babe!’ She smiled before finally tossing the ball up in the air and giving an impressive serve. “Arrghhh!” Savannah surprised everyone by getting through the semi-finals and going head to head with Maria, the Russian tennis player who ranked number two worldwide. It marked Savanna’s most noteworthy achievement in her entire tennis career, and she was contented. Win or lose, to her, she had already won. Savannah grunted as she ran and returned every volley and toss that came her way, her eyes fierce against the tennis ball. They were already in the third set, and that last serve would eventually mark one’s win, with Maria leading. Following a backhand stroke, Savannah caught up, managing another tie. “Deuce!” Announced the umpire, reminding everyone that another tiebreaker was in order for that set. Yet again, Savannah returned to serv
“We met at the tennis camp many years back,” Carlos revealed in an interview. Because of that footage of the four of them celebrating Alexander’s win through an embrace, one of France’s leading TV networks invited the two tennis players for an interview, addressing exactly how they wound up becoming friends. “I was juggling studies and training, minding my own business, when I saw a group of trainees pick on me. They called me a show-off.” Carlos smirked in Alexander’s way when he revealed, “Alex was in that group.” In his seat, Alexander chuckled, thinking back to his college days. He explained, “Carlos never joined any of the group gatherings. Carlos was always on his own, just focused on tennis. I was new to the tennis camp back then while Carlos was in his third year, already joining tournaments.” “Anyway, we thought he was indifferent, a snob, whatnot, Carlos Ronaldo, the son of Manuel Ronaldo, but later on, when I found myself in the same locker room as The Devil, I realize
Alexander: [Just give me about half an hour. I still need to get past my guests.] Lexi smiled, reading Alexander’s text. She turned to Mia and Evan, saying, “You better leave before Alex gets here.” Lexi’s father, Hector King, wanted to marry her off to another business partner’s son, which she did not like. Instead, she preferred Alexander Jenkins, a tennis superstar. The Jenkins was also one of their business partners. By marrying Alexander, Lexi concluded, she would be hitting two birds with one stone. The plan was simple. She wanted to seduce Alexander. Lexi felt she was more appealing than Savannah, and she had a great body. Perhaps Alexander needed to see her beautiful assets in sexy sleeping wear. No man had ever refused her when she had no clothes on. Alexander would be no exception. Besides, he was just any other man. “Any minute now,” Lexi said, checking her watch. She slid off her robe and revealed her nightgown that barely covered her private parts. Forty-five minutes
“It’s just a little over a month,” Carlos suggested while caressing Kate’s back. “And then you’ll see me at Wimbledon.” “Your calculation is incorrect, Mister Ronaldo,” Kate responded, her arms wrapped around his neck, her face buried against his chest. “It’s one month as you attend tournaments across the Americas and another month to the Wimbledon championships. You forget, I will only fly to see you during the final match.” Kate knew the day would come when Carlos would travel the world again, and she would stay behind to manage the company. She had spent months waking up every day with The Devil beside her. She knew she would miss him so. The couple was at the runway, standing behind the private jet, where Carlos’ team was inside, along with other high-profile passengers. Mia came along, just as Alexander planned. Carlos pulled away and cupped Kate’s chin. He said, “I’ll miss you, my Kate.” Kate sucked in a breath. She took out Carlos’ previous necklace and said, “Don’t forge
