All Chapters of Twins for my Alpha Ex-bodyguard: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

NICOLEGOOD GLASS OF wine, a bold pair of lacy thongs creeping up my ass and a comfy night gown made me feel…I don’t know formidable?Would you believe that?The kids were already in bed, and Callan well tonight wasn’t about Callan.He was in the army or Marines whatever he called it and I’m a hundred percent sure they survived a whole lot of weather conditions like drought or hypothermia. A little draft in the garage wouldn’t kill him.Yet here I was trying to watch another thrilling episode of TOO HOT TO HANDLE, swirling red wine in my mouth and trying to convince myself I didn’t feel a pang of guilt invade my chest.What if he died in there? Okay. I was being overdramatic and I hated myself for even caring this much.He wasn’t even sorry when I got home. I had half expected him to cook dinner as a way of apologizing or flowers? God, he didn’t have to go through the hassle of buying me flowers we had a garden full of them, he could have just picked them for me and lied he bought the

NICOLEFRIENDS.The type of friends I had back then were the type to dunk a bottle of gin down your throat all in the spirit of Yolo. The type that encouraged you to strip naked at a music concert full of horny men that were definitely carrying chlamydia more than half of the people in the planet.And the type that thought doing vandalizing public property in the spirit of having fun meant being cool, meant showing off to the world that you were rich enough to get away with some of the most illegal shit in Miami.The type of friends gracing my ecru Millesimo seats however were so different. More like mother gathering at a boring book club and don’t get me wrong I enjoyed their company. Wine and dining? That I fucking loved. However, their questions…“Or that special perfume I see on my Tv, do you use that? Though it might be debatable that men actually fall for that stuff but I’m ready to try anything at this point. So, Nicole what’s your secret?” curiosity etched in Joey’s eyes and I

NICOLE“WE HAD to do it considering the fact that Berkely’s men scared Frank Hanks out of town”Not that he had anything to do with Callan getting shot but they did Tina Hanks a favor really. She wouldn’t oust her husband as an abuser but everyone with eyes could see it.With Frank out of the way I knew it was hard for Tina to cope with a new life, a life that didn’t involve your narcissistic of a husband telling you what to do, a life without a man making you feel insignificant and small.“It’s their first sleep over, Nicole. Connor might be a social fucking butterfly but Jr is rough around the edges”“You mean he takes after you?”He did. Jr took after Callan that every time I looked at him, he looked like a mini-Callan minus the grumpiness.“He’s my kid after all”, Callan said proudly as I hooked my hand with his.He tried to hide it but I saw the rage simmer in his eyes for a sec at the jewel gracing my finger.“Tina just needs some time to process it all. Her life’s gonna change

CONNOR/ KADE HAWKINSPRESENT DAY“I’LL ALWAYS BE your friend. You made Aunt Tina proud. Your dad is proud”The five-year-old me stared at the ginger haired woman. Her hair wasn’t honey blonde, that was fake just like her words. Just like her fucking affection for me.Did you know how human flesh smelled like when subjected to a fiery furnace? Did you know how humans screamed when life ebbed out of their bodies?Ask me and I would tell you.The smell of human flesh was nowhere near that of a chicken’s or a pig’s. No, burning flesh smelled like death, had the kind of tang that brought tears to your eyes and made you want to fucking puke your guts out.The screams of a dying man? My father—the rotting bastard—might have stashed me away in a helicopter that day but every day, every damn night, I could see the flames. The sickening smell of my mother, my brother and Callan burning alive engraved itself on me for years now. And their screams? They were like an echo forever meant to haunt m

NOTE|OKAY maybe I am evil for enjoying the pain that comes with killing off characters and surprising my readers with plot twists out of nowhere.When I came up with the book title, in my head I knew it was always going to be about Jr and Connor and I didn’t want to show that just yet. I wanted all of you to love Callan and Nicole and understand the pain the boys carry, to feel the loss just like they did, just like I did.And Callan’s death was always going to play a pivotal role in the Alpha Bodyguard series I’m still writing about Flames, Blaze, Holy, Snakes, Jason and Pindrop.So, am I evil for not giving a warning about Callan and Nicole’s deaths? I am. Yes I am but please DO NOT leave any hate comments on the book, there are tons of books on the app and I can’t hold it against you if you want to leave this one. I love all of you, I read each one of your comments and sit down the whole day thinking of how I’ll make each one of your happy. And speaking of, shout out to the comme
