Jalyssa

I could tell something had happened as soon as I entered the building. Everyone was in groups discussing something significant. I tried to catch any information I could as I walked to the elevator but I couldn’t hear anything clearly. I was surprised that I had arrived before Nick and Phil. I walked to my office and put my purse in its usual drawer. I had just put my lunch away when I heard Phil’s voice as he exited the elevator. I went about my morning routine and gave him the coffee I had gotten him. I knocked on the partially open door and walked in after he told me to come in. I can see dark circles under his eyes. He looks exhausted. “Good morning. I have your coffee.” I said. “Oh thank god. I was up late last night and didn’t sleep well. Damn this is good.” Phil groans. I giggle as he sits down. Initially, I wasn’t sure about this, but I love working with Phil. We get along excellently. Nick is a great boss and has been very patient with me. They told me I q

Lance’s idea was to have Jalyssa be Phil and Ben’s assistant. I knew Ben was hesitant initially, but after the first two days, I think he adapted to the idea quickly. Nick was on board with it, so we had him talk to her and let her know what was happening. According to him, she was ecstatic. I knew it would be all over the building on Monday about Everly and I getting engaged. I had already announced that she was carrying my child, and no one thought anything when she, Tianya, or Kylynn would randomly show up. Everyone is used to them filtering in and out that no one even bats an eye anymore. The only people to react are new employees or visiting their friends or family for lunch. Oh, and a few of our investors or associates didn’t believe we had nailed down the contract with them. Mostly, no one bothers getting us to arrange a meeting with them. I think they realized that we couldn’t help them. “Nick said that Jalyssa went quiet when he told her that the two of you had go

Lance

I didn’t make it to Ian and Logan’s after work on Friday. I got a call from Mom saying that she needed me to come over. She sounded stressed, so I told her I would be over soon. I got there, and nothing looked out of place. It turned out that I needed to help Dad with the sink in the upstairs guest bathroom. He had taken it apart because it was clogged. We could not fix it, so I told them to call a plumber in the morning. I don't know why Dad would even think he could fix it. He fixed minor house issues when we were younger, but he always called a professional when it came to plumbing or electrical problems. Bethany told me he had been watching several youtube videos showing how to fix everyday housing issues. I guess he thought he was now a general handyman since watching those videos. I am starting to think that my dad has way too much time on his hands. I am going to Ian and Logan’s to meet with his dad. Besides being a businessman, I am also a lawyer. The gate opens a

I am still trying to process everything Lance told us the other day. Nothing exciting happened at work, so I told Everly that I would stop by a friend's house. I told her there was some business I needed to discuss with them, and she told me she was just about to call me. She said she was going to Jenna’s to help her with something. It concerns Lance, but it wasn’t my place to ask. Lance told us things were going well, but I felt like something had happened between them. I am sure Everly will tell me later. Brent and Alek had been pouting all day since their women were still out of town. Tianya and Kylynn will be back this weekend with their cousin Dani. I left the office and headed over to Ian and Logan’s house. I needed to see for myself that what Lance told us was true. Everly had told us about her family but never mentioned any names. She would always say her father of brothers. Everly’s last name is Atherton, while Ian and Logan’s is Rainville. Everly changed her las

Everly

I do a full-body stretch as I slowly wake up. I have no plans to do anything this weekend. Tianya and Kylynn are still out of town, so I decided I would spend the whole weekend doing nothing. I let out a squeak when I felt an arm wrap around me as Kaden presses a kiss to my neck. I figured he would already be awake. He is more of a morning person than I am. I roll over so I am flat on my back and able to look at him. I am still amazed that this gorgeous man wants me and is in my life. Sometimes I still think that I will wake up from this dream and be alone again. I jump when he pinches my thigh. I slap his arm, but all he does is chuckle at me. “So, little sprite, what do you want to do today?” Kaden asks. “Honestly, I was planning on doing nothing all weekend,” I answer. Ok, so hearing him talk in his sexy morning voice and seeing him lying here half-naked has me thinking about doing him, but I was telling him the truth. I climb on him, straddling his waist. His hands

I could tell that Everly was uncomfortable when she heard Logan’s voice. She did a damn good job acting as if she had no idea who that was. My little Sprite would make one hell of a poker player. She listened intently when we told her they were looking for their younger sister, being her. Alek was very impressed with her poker face. It is just the two of us today. It is raining outside, so we are stuck in the apartment. Everly didn’t want to go anywhere today. Not that I blame her, we have all been on the go for a while now. I mean, they did finish their tour a couple of months ago. I can’t imagine living on a bus for that long. I start getting restless if I have a flight that lasts more than three or four hours. Right now, she is in the bath. Her back was bothering her, so I ran her a nice hot bath, hoping it would help her muscles. “Thank you for the bath. It helped a lot and it even got your son to calm the hell down.” Everly says. “You are welcome little sprite.

It has been an hour since I arrived at the hospital. Dalton was there, along with Cole, Alayna, and Drew were there. They couldn’t tell me much except that Everly was brought in by an ambulance and unconscious. That freaked me out. Aunt Lisa walked into the room we were all in, and I stood up from my seat. I was glad to see a familiar face here. “Don’t worry, Everly and the baby are going to be ok. They called me since I was her OB-GYN, and I took a look at the baby. He is fine. They are still looking at Everly, but besides a few bruises starting to immerge, she is going to be fine.” Aunt Lisa explains. I let out a breath I didn’t realize I was holding and dropped back into the chair I was sitting in. Aunt Lisa told us that another doctor would talk with us soon. She did let us know that Everly is still unconscious. I left a hand on my shoulder and saw Alek sitting by me. “What the hell happened?” I asked. “Honestly, none of us know too much. We all received a notif

Everly

The first thing I notice when I wake up is that Kaden is not in bed. I reach over to find cold sheets on his side of the bed. I was released from the hospital yesterday, and he said he would work from home for the rest of the week. So the fact that he is not in bed is weird. I looked at the clock; it was after nine, so I figured he would be out in the living room. When I walk out into the main living area, I suddenly realize that I am home alone. I grab something to eat and sit down on the couch. My mind starts to conjure up all the reasons that Kaden was not here when he said he would be. I jump when my phone goes off, letting me know there is a text message. (I hope I didn’t wake you up. - Kaden) (No, I just woke up, though. Where are you? - Me) (I am sorry little sprite, but I had to attend a meeting that I was not able to postpone. Ben was able to reschedule everything else but this meeting. Believe me; I hated leaving you there this morning. I should be home in a c

Regina (Everly's Stepmother)

I am fuming. I had set the accident up perfectly, but those two idiots couldn’t even make sure she was hurt. I thought we had succeeded, but Jalyssa told me the next day that Everle was fine, as was the child she was carrying. I had talked with my guys, and they agreed to go to the apartment and rough her up. I really just wanted her away from Kaden so that Jalyssa would be able to make her move. I had also been keeping an eye on Aaron and the boys. We may not be married any longer, but I still wanted to know what was going on with them. I needed to make sure that they never located Everly. Of course, I knew the truth. I knew that she had gone to live with those girls. I also knew they had such a hard time finding her because she had gone on tour with them. I am still not sure how they still haven’t been able to track her down. They have her last name, but the private investigators still can’t find her. Even the ones that I hired can’t find her using her last name. I stil

Kaden

I checked my phone for the hundredth time today to see no texts or calls from Everly. She went back to work today. I wasn’t overly happy with this, but I know that she loves what she does and that I can’t keep her confined to the apartment all the time. After the attempted break-in, I am unsure if I want her home alone. I still kick myself in the ass. We had stopped to walk with Larry, the leading security guard, during the day, but if we hadn’t, we could have caught those two assholes trying to break in. I am relieved that she is back at the office. Being there, I know that nothing can happen to her. The weekend went well, minus the ass-chewing from Tianya and Kylynn. They were not happy about everything we found out. I talked with Sean on Sunday, and I guess they even got their asses chewed out by Tianya and Kylynn. He said he would look into the security at the apartment, work, and my new house. I think Brent has asked them about security at his house as well. “So we
