All Chapters of The Billionaire's Forbidden Obsession: Taming My Son's Ex: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

[Avery’s POV]Suddenly feeling too exhausted to bother arguing, I just shrug and continue to look out my window."Suit yourself," I say, resting my forehead against the cool glass. "But don’t blame me when your wife gets mad."When Atlas doesn’t argue the fact that Tonia is actually his wife, I feel a pang of pain shoot through me, hardening my heart even further."Nothing to say?" I ask, unable to control the anger that is beginning to bubble up."That's..." he begins, and then stops as if realizing that there isn’t anything he can truly say to make this whole situation any better. "I’ll handle it.""Right," I huff, rolling my eyes. "Because you’ve done a bang-up job of doing that the past five years."At my words, he takes a sharp turn into a parking lot and puts the car in park before turning and grabbing my chin roughly so he can make me look at him."I’m going to make one thing clear here," he says, leaning in so close that his breath tickles my skin and causes my heartbeat to ki

[Atlas’ POV]I stare at Avery, fighting the urge to argue with her further, but knowing Tonia, she probably went and did something crazy.Fuck, this was frustrating, but I couldn’t simply be heartless and let her possibly end up doing something that could be extremely harmless."Tomorrow," I announce, fixing my gaze with Avery’s. "Let’s meet up and talk about this further.""No," she responds simply. "There’s nothing to discuss."Nothing to discuss? There was still so much left unspoken between us, and she was saying there was nothing.Was she really that angry at me for not contacting or searching for her for all these years, even after I explained the reason?No, I couldn’t let her go now that she was back and within my grasp."There is," I counter, looking to Aiden, who clings to her like a little monkey.Even now, I couldn’t quite believe that he existed, even though he was right there in front of me. A child that was created by Avery and me, he was the perfect mixture between us,

[Avery’s POV]A whimper escapes me as I begin to pull at Atlas’ shirt so that I can feel his skin against my fingertips. God, it had been so long since I last got to take in the man, and I didn’t realize just how much my body craved him.He was like a delicious meal, and I had been starving for so fucking long that now that I had him in front of me, I couldn't stop myself from devouring him whole."Is this a go-ahead?" He asks, pulling away and fixing his blue gaze with mine. "Because once I’ve started, I don’t plan to stop.""Less talk," I murmur, tossing his shirt to the side and placing my fingers on his chest so that I can feel his strong muscles and warm skin. "More action."I watch as Atlas’ eyes flash with desire before his hands begin to attack, grabbing at my clothes piece by piece and removing them until I’m completely naked.Stepping back, he begins to take me in before lifting one of my legs and bringing his mouth down on my calf, then slowly kissing up it until he reaches

[Atlas’ POV] "He’s what?" Avery gasps, putting me on high alert. "How can that… What… I…" Reaching out, I gently take the phone from her shaking hand and bring it to my ear while she continues to stare straight ahead in disbelief over whatever she was just told. "Hello," I announce, deciding to take control. "What seems to have happened?" "I’m sorry," the person on the other end gasps, her voice shaking. "They were out for recess, and when they came back in, he was nowhere to be found." "He?" I repeat, getting a sinking feeling. "As in Aiden?" "That’s right," the woman sobs. "I don’t know what happened; we’ve watched all the cameras, but there was nothing! The police are on their way now, but I'm afraid we have nothing for them to go off of. "Got it. Please fill them in on the situation and I'll take care of the rest." Hanging up, I reach out and grab Avery’s arms and give them a gentle squeeze as the color slowly drains from her face. "Aiden," she whispers, her large eyes fil

[Avery’s POV]I watch in horror as Atlas lays motionless on the ground in front of me, his back covered in shards of glass and wood from the impact of the condo collapsing.“Atlas,” I hiss, my heart beginning to beat erratically. “Hey, get up; this isn’t funny!”True fear begins to build within me with each minute that passes where he doesn’t move, and when it becomes too much, I pass Aiden to Gregory and then pull my phone from my pocket.“What are you doing?” Gregory demands as I start to dial 911. “You can’t possibly be calling an ambulance!”“I am,” I counter. “What the hell else would I be doing?”“You can’t!” He gasps, yanking my phone from me. “Here, take Aiden. I’ll take dad and call one of our men.”One of their men... Wasn’t this past the line of their men taking care of it?A whole fucking building collapsed, possibly crushing anyone who was still inside! Not to mention that Atlas was severely injured while protecting me and Aiden.“Don’t worry,” Gregory murmurs, pulling ou
