KAYSEN*Tanner and I had our first actual argument ever when he was being adamant about spending over one hundred thousand dollars on a decked-out third-row seating Lexus SUV. In the end, Tanner won, and we drove off the lot in our brand new Luxury Lexus SUV. Those determined mesmerizing hazel eyes burning into my sky blue eyes get me every time. Oh, and his signature only the best for my girls, and nothing less. I've come to figure out that I would most likely never win an argument when it came to money and Tanner spoiling Cora and me.Cora had jumped up and down excitedly and screamed for joy when she saw our new car and got even more excited when she realized she could now watch movies in the back seat. I was glad Tanner was doing the driving because I was too afraid to drive around in such an expensive car. I'm not the spending money type of girl, and this vehicle is over the top. I never envisioned that I would be driving around in such luxury.I've got more in common with Lyra r
TANNER*"Call an ambulance! Kaysen, Kaysen baby, wake up, love," I cried out as I checked her pulse. She had a pulse, but it was faint. I cradled my love in my arms and cried out to her, all the while checking her pulse and making sure she was still alive until the ambulance arrived. "Kaysen has succumbed to a small placental abruption. It's not severe. It's barely visible. I have given a steroid shot to help the baby's lungs to mature if I have to conduct an emergency C-section. Kaysen will need to stay in the hospital from here on out and on complete bed rest to prevent any more tearing," Dr. Ryan explained to me as she led me back to Kaysen's room. I stopped Dr. Ryan before we arrived at Kaysen's room. "I'm sorry I don't understand; what is a placental abruption? Is Kaysen ok and the babies?" "I'm sorry, placental abruption is when the placenta detaches itself from the womb. The placenta is how nutrients get to the baby. The tear is minimal; we got to her before any significant

Book Synopsis:Taylor could lose everything, but will she be able to resist Connor and Wade. Connor and Wade have done their best to stay away from Taylor, but when she shows up with bruises, they will stop at nothing to protect her. Even if it means going up against her father, a highly respected preacher, and her ex fiance, the mayor. Tropes: Love Triangle, Playboy, Office Romance, MFM, Single Mother, Marriage, Pregnancy. Taylor*"Come on, Mark, let's go; I need to get you to school so I can get to work. We're running late, again," I yelled as my four-year-old son Mark raced past me. Though I know none of the Cunningham men will be in the office today, I still hate being late. Not that they would care if I was late, but still. Having to sign Mark into school when he is late is always a hassle. O
TAYLOR*Connor turned to leave, and I couldn't help but stare at his fine ass. I would have my way with him if it weren't for the fact that he is just like Aaron. I'm pretty sure he's never been in an actual relationship before, not even in high school. Connor and Wade always have and will forever be Playboy's.I was a grade below them in high school, but we all lived on the same block, and we all grew up and played together until they became freshmen and figured out hanging out with the preacher's daughter wasn't good for their ego.I was one of the most popular girls in the whole school, even though my dad was a preacher. I patiently waited for Connor or Wade's attention to be drawn to me. Those hopes were squashed when Connor and Wade became seniors and slept with half the girls in school; then, the thought of being with either one of them made me sick. Connor and Wade may be handsome to look at, but that's all either of them would be to me. I don't think anything would ever
CONNOR*I shouldn't have turned around; I knew I was sporting a raging hard-on. I wasn't thinking straight at the moment, and instead of turning around to leave as I should, I was rooted in place, unable to move. Even when Taylor got up to go to the bathroom, I still couldn't move until she passed me, and I watched her walk off. Seeing that perfect round ass of hers as she walked off had my cock pulsing with need. My heart pounded in my chest wildly to the point I thought it might burst its way out of my chest. I went to my office. I had to take care of this, or to ride on a Harley would be highly uncomfortable. At this moment, I wished I had taken my truck, but how was I to know I would end up coming here and seeing Taylor's fine ass. The fact that she's off-limits doesn't help; I could die right now.I've loved and wanted Taylor since Jr. High, and I started going through puberty. Wade and I fought over who she would belong to, but in all reality, we were all the best of friends. W
WARNING! Please be advised that this chapter contains spousal abuse that may be a trigger to some. Please take special care in reading this chapter.***TAYLOR FIVE YEARS AGO***I nervously kicked my feet, hitting the clinic's bedside as I waited for Dr. Ryan to walk in and tell me my fate. I had missed my period and was two weeks late. Of course, I would be the one to get knocked up by an abusive womanizer. How could I have been so stupid? Because there is a part of Aaron that is good. The part of him that I fell in love with. The piece of him that is kind and loving before he gets drunk and turns into a completely different person. In time, he will change. I can do this with him, right? Can I die now, please, just put me out of my misery?A few more minutes pass by, and I thumb through my social media trying to pass the time, and it's driving me nuts! I can't focus on what I'm looking at. Then, there is a knock on the door, and Dr. Ryan walks through. Yes! Finally!"Congratulations a
CONNOR*"I need you to come to the office quickly. I'm a hundred percent sure that asshole Aaron punched Taylor. The right side of her face is swollen and bruised pretty badly. She won't let me take her to the hospital. She says she tripped and fell into a wall," I texted Blaze because he wouldn't answer his cell phone."Lock the door, so Aaron doesn't try to walk up in there; I'll be there as soon as possible. I'll bring Lyra and Vega along," Blaze messaged me back moments later.When I get my hands on Aaron, he'll wish he were dead. He better hope I don't see him any time soon. I looked in on Taylor, who was on the phone scheduling a contractor to come out to one of our building sites, and then made my way to lock up the office. At least she took my peace offering; I had seen a half-eaten donut and one of the coffee cups I had bought for her sitting in front of her. I don't know if she will ever fully get over Wade and me ditching her when we started high school. Wade and I tried to
DIANA*It has been twenty-five years since it all started. When the beautiful Auburn-haired, green-eyed Riley twins walked into Blaze and Jace's lives. Lyra and Vega are the daughters I myself could never have, but I have been blessed beyond measure to have them both in my life.Between Jace and Vega, then Lyra and Blaze, then Tanner and Kaysen, I now have eighteen grandchildren. Blaze and Lyra have eight of those, and I do believe the only reason why they stopped is that the last time Lyra became pregnant, it resulted in her having another set of twins. Blaze had told me on several occasions when he was in college that he wanted a big family, and now as I gaze around at my massive family, I see he has all he ever dreamed of."Blaze, Lyra, get your family together so the photographer can get a picture of you with your dad and me," I called out over the crowd.Every year at Christmas time, we have a massive family reunion, and I always make sure to have several photographers around to
SIX MONTHS LATER*WADE*Taylor made it back to work after taking three months off to spend with Nathaniel. Samantha had also gotten Luke over his disdain over our relationship, and Samantha has cared for Nathaniel daily while we are at work. We have all bonded and have started going back to Luke's church.Blaze was beyond ecstatic when Taylor returned. The temp who had worked in her place while she was gone couldn't hack it. The office had turned into a shit show, to be honest, but we all somehow made it through. Connor, Jace, and I did most of the temp's work while she mainly just answered calls and forwarded them to us, and filed paperwork as an average secretary would. Three months of being stuck in the office and not doing any fieldwork had us all pent up—even Jace, who spent most of, if not all, of his time in the office.Blaze didn't win in the Mayor's election, but he came in close, losing by only a couple hundred votes, and that in turn brought in a whole slew of new clientele
TAYLOR*It's a good thing Torrance made sure all the equipment was set up in the bathroom before leaving. I had gotten up, and Wade, Connor, and I went for a stroll. My feet were so swollen, though. So after thirty minutes of walking, we went back home. I pounced on Connor and Wade just as we walked through the door, and we made love. It was mind-blowing sex that had my whole body trembling each time I came. When I got up to go to the bathroom, my water broke and gushed out onto the floor.Wade ran to fill up the bathtub as Connor called Kimberly, who said she would call Torrance and not to worry that they would both be there within ten minutes or so. Connor walked me to the bathroom and sat me on a closed toilet lid while he went out to clean up the floor, and Wade and I waited for the bathtub to fill up."Are you having any contractions?""No, but I need to use the restroom. Can you give me a minute, please," I usually wouldn't care if he stayed, but my stomach was on fire like I wa
Five Months Later🌶🌶🌶CONNOR*I helped Taylor out of the bathtub, and my cock sprung to the sight of her body. Pregnancy suits her, she is so damn sexy, Wade, and I can't seem to get enough of her. Pregnancy hormones have her jumping us any chance she gets. The last five months have been magical, and I never wanted it to end."Where's Wade?""He went out to get you the mint chocolate chip ice cream and pickles you were asking for,""He didn't have to do that; I could have waited,""Nonsense, what our love wants, she gets,""Do we have time for a quicky? I don't want to wait; I need you inside me now, Connor," Taylor demanded and rubbed her hand over my boxers, grinning when she felt my erection."Mmm, yes, babe, I'm going to cum so deep inside you it'll make your head spin," I said as I licked droplets of water from her neck down to her nipples.Taylor gripped the edge of my boxers and pulled them down, and gripped my length in her hands as I stroked her soft wet folds and sucked ea
TAYLOR*My parents have been asking for answers since Saturday. What possessed me to hug and kiss Connor out in the open? Oh yes, he's the love of my life, and he was hurt. At the time, I didn't care who saw; I had to be there for him. Now, after everything that has happened over the last couple of months, I'm tired of hiding the fact that I am with both Connor and Wade. If anyone has a problem with it, they can forget we exist, and that includes my parents. It's our time for happiness, and I'm not going to let anyone taint what we have."Alright, the moment of truth; you guys ready?" I asked Connor and Wade before opening the front door.We all took a deep breath, and Connor and Wade bent and kissed my cheeks, and then I turned the handle. Mark came running around the corner, excited to see all of us. It's crazy that he would turn five in five months; where had the time gone? Instead of running to me, he ran straight into Connor's arms."You were like Superman coming to save the day.
CONNOR* Today is our last day off from work, and the day we get to see and hear a heartbeat. Initially, I wasn't going with Taylor and Wade, but they insisted I go with them. Taylor emphasized that we would all be raising the baby together, so we needed to go through this experience together, and Wade agreed with her. So, in the end, I decided to make them both happy. "Hey babe, it's time to wake up, love. I have omelets waiting in the dining room; they will get cold. Can you wake Wade up for me? Im going to go get some toast and juice ready," I said as I kissed Taylor on the nose and ran my fingers through her hair. Taylor grinned and went to work to get Wade up as I returned to the kitchen. As usual, I was the first to crawl out of bed this morning. Her appointment was set for ten o'clock, so we didn't have much time before we needed to get ready to leave, but I wanted to make sure Taylor ate before we left. She is growing a human being inside her; I couldn't let her go around st
TAYLOR*Connor was released around five o'clock in the evening after being stitched up, having his MRI, and a bag of IV fluids with pain killers. He was lucky to have not broken any ribs, only bruising around the area where Aaron had jabbed and kicked him. Connor had, however, broken a couple of fingers and fractured his wrist. The MRI only showed a mild concussion, and no other injuries were reported. Aaron, however, showed no signs of improvement when we left. I was told I would get a call when the time came that he would be going into surgery. I was also told he would most likely never fully recover.Wade and I had left to get Jackson, Connor, and Wade's dad when some police officers showed up to get Connor's accounts of what had happened earlier that day. He would not be facing any jail time because there was too much evidence showing that he was defending himself and doing what he could to protect Mark.Connor, Wade, and I decided we would keep our relationship under wraps for no
TAYLOR*"You shouldn't have kissed me like you did; your parents were right there and saw the whole thing," Connor said as he winced in pain. "And they didn't look too happy about it. Of course, it could also be the fact that I might have very well killed Aaron. He was breathing when they took him," Connor said grimly.I couldn't quite place if it was because he was actually in pain or he felt terrible about Aaron, that held a permanent scowl on his face. As far as my parents go, they would have figured it out eventually, so why not get everything out in the open now?I don't know how I feel about Aaron at this point. I've been his only family besides the bureau for the last ten years and the last five years; he has treated me like gum you find stuck to the bottom of your shoe. Aaron's whole family, his parent's and four younger siblings died from carbon monoxide poisoning in their home when Aaron was 25 and away at college. He has no surviving family to this day. I suppose I'll be th
CONNOR*I watched as Wade drove off with our wife and wished that I could be driving off with them right now. A pang of jealousy rocked through me. Though I got the privilege of walking Taylor down the aisle, I would never get to enjoy the whole experience of getting married. I would never be able to say those vows and put a wedding band on her finger. I would never be able to boast about her being my wife. I was always going to be a secret because no one would ever be able to handle the fact that all three of us were one.As I was wallowing in self-pity, I heard screams coming from the playground. I saw that Aaron had grabbed Mark and was running with him like a man gone crazy. I ran like my life depended on it; I wasn't sure how to keep Mark from being harmed."Aaron put Mark down now! Aaron stop! You don't want to harm your son; put him down," I yelled as I caught up to Aaron and ran alongside him. "Aaron, stop and put Mark down NOW!" I commanded, and Aaron stopped with a look of d
