She stared at Kylan with wide eyes for a couple of seconds, breathing erratically but she soon snapped out of her shocked state, wondering why she was reacting like this when there are lots of Connors in the world.She finally convinced herself that she was overreacting and it was normal for her to fear that it was him since she had a history with him."Are you okay?""Nancy?" Kylan called her attention."You look like you are going to pass out. You okay?" He stared at her with concern"Wait, are you nervous because of the guest?""What? No!" She napped out of the thoughts in her head."Then what? You were looking all okay before I mentioned his name.""You don't have to be nervous. If you don't know him I can just chase him away or something. And if you don't wanna see him, I can just go there and tell him a lie. You don't need to be anxious because of some dude.""Too bad I was already getting excited."Nancy frowned at him, "Why?"He shrugged, "You've never had an official guest."
He was pretty convincing with his speech and what got to her the more was the look she saw in his eyes. Sadness,shame and regret."You coming here and acting really sympathetic wouldn't move me, Connor! You literally ruined me, and here you are, acting like some saint."Connor sighed, he had prepared his mind that Nancy was going to be really hard on him but the preparation didn't seem enough as he had no idea what to do to make her calm so that they would talk."I'm deeply sorry about everything, Nancy. I deeply regret my actions. Please just calm down and hear me out.""I've got nothing to say to you and I don't want to hear what you have to say either.""You're my past, Connor, and I really want you to be buried. I've honestly moved on and I think you should too.""If you are worried about the fact that you hurt me, I forgive you but that doesn't mean I want anything to do with you.""You made your intentions clear when you chose your wife over me. You left me at the most vulnerabl
Nancy had no idea why she felt even more emotional. She couldn't tell if it was the fact that she never foresaw this, most especially tonight, or the fact that she had never seen Connor this way. She could hardly believe he was the one kneeling before her and crying his eyes out."Connor," she called out his name after a while."Get off me,"He shook his head against her belly."I know I'm not worthy of your forgiveness but I'm not going to leave here unless you accept me back into your life.""You know that's not possible. You know that's not going to happen?!""Then I would rather be here." He held her waist tighter, still sobbing.Nancy sighed, trying to push back fresh tears from her eyes."You are ruining my clothes.""I'm going to get new ones for you.""I'm serious, Connor, get off me!" She tried to pull him off her but she wasn't succeeding."Okay, I give up!"He sniffled, then looked up at her with his teary eyes.Nancy tried so much not to be moved by his teary and blotchy f
"Just let me in, Babe.""Please," He added when she didn't say anything.She still didn't say anything so he knew that she was having an inner conversation with herself.He picked up the gift bag that he left by the door earlier. He opened it so she could take a glance at what was inside."I didn't know what to buy. I was thrilled to know that he shares the same birth date with me. I won't lie, apart from it being an amazing feeling, I know it's a sign. A good sign.""Sign?""Don't start thinking too deeply, Connor. It happens and it's honestly a coincidence.""No, it isn't. It's a sign of renewed hope for me. A sign that Jayden is his father's son and by that, me and him are meant to be together."Nancy scoffed, rolling her eyes."I hope he likes all that I got for him."She continued to stare at him, not knowing if she should accept the gift bag or not."You had no idea how I wished to be here earlier, to be at the party and watch him enjoy. But I knew I just had to wait for now. Ho
Nancy was lost in her thoughts that she almost had no idea when Connor pulled away from the hug. He saw tears in her eyes which made him bring up his thumb, wiping the tears away from the corner of her eyes.Nancy looked away, avoiding looking into his eyes.Connor had no idea where the confidence came from but he possessively wrapped his arms around her waist, bringing her closer to him, not caring that anyone could come out and see them."Look at me." He mumbled."Babe," He called when she refused to answer him.He eventually ended up caressing her cheek with his thumb."You've got nothing to be shy about. If there's anyone that should be afraid of looking into your eyes, then it's me. This doesn't make you weak or make you a loser. It just shows how much of a wonderful woman you are.""You've given me a big chance and I promise you that I won't let you down."There was silence between the duo for a while."You are staring as though you don't believe me.""What more do you want from
"You just put a fortune around my neck. I don't know how to feel about it. I don't even think I can breathe properly."Connor chuckled. "Calm down, babe. It's just a necklace." He saw the way she stiffed her neck."It's made of gold. How much does it cost?""It doesn't matter. I can buy a thousand more for you if you want."She shook her head, "I can't accept it.""Too late my love, it's on you already and it looks perfect on you.""I know this might sound strange but now that I'm in your life and I'm here to stay forever, you will need to get used to luxury items as well as a luxury lifestyle.""You don't have to feel bad about anything. You deserve all you have and all that you are getting. I've worked so hard all my life and everything I have, belongs to me, you and Jayden.""Remove your mind from the price and see it as a gift from the love of your life. I know you won't misplace it and if you do, it's insured. I'm definitely going to get you more gorgeous stuff. As long as you ar
"What does it seem like?" He whispered, placing a light kiss on her cheek."God! I miss the smell of you. You smell so fucking good." He mumbled, with the tip of his nose running through her skin, inhaling her scent."I can hear your heartbeat. You seem really excited about me being this close to you."She slowly shut her eyes, then shook her head.He placed a hand on her lap and started caressing her inner thigh.He felt her breath hitch."Open.""Open your eyes,""Look at me, babe."She obeyed, slowly opening her eyes."I know you want this. I want this too. I want you so bad. I don't know to what extent I'm going to be able to control myself but just say the word if you want me to stop"Connor didn't wait for her to give any response before he started caressing her body while showering kisses behind her ear, down to her neck area.With a finger, he loosened her towel and the tiny piece of clothing dropped down along with the night dress she intended to wear."Uhhhhh fuck!" Nancy mo
"She has everything to do with us. I know how much she humiliated me to stay away from you and in the end, you picked her over me."Connor grumbled, massaging his temple. "Please stop. I thought we settled this already.""Having uncomfortable conversations is part of it. I have to know what I'm into and what's to come. I see no ring on your finger but that's still not enough proof that you're done with her."Connor sighed."There's nothing between us, I promise you.""I only agreed to marry her to escape my responsibilities to you. I never loved her, nothing ever worked. We lived in the same house but we had different rooms and hardly saw each other. When she's home, I'm away on a business trip, when I'm home she's probably on tour or something.""I started the divorce process but got no strength to pursue it after that fucker agent told me that there was no baby and that you had moved on.""But lately, things between myself and her have been so crazy that I really got back into the p
