CHAPTER 71-TIME TO GET OUT OF THE CITY-JAKE

“I knew I wanted you back in my life. Now there’s no question about it. You’re perfect love. Perfect for me.” He’d found completion, but Jake must have enjoyed their encounter because he didn’t leave her body. Instead, he pressed his hips into her as though he couldn’t get enough of what he felt while he was inside her. “Fuck, I think I’m getting hard again.” He looked down at Josalyn and she saw the look of wonderment mixed with pleasure. Then she felt it. Jake didn’t lie. Josalyn didn’t know it was possible for a man to respond this way. He heard Josalyn gasp softly as he tried a few tentative thrusts. She was still ready from their first round of lovemaking. This time the rush and excitement from her agreeing to marry him was muted. He didn’t toy with her too much. He could see her swollen nipples and clit. It all made him greedy for more. “See what you do to me love? Daddy needs a second go around because he doesn’t want it to end so soon. Fuck, you’re perf

CHAPTER 72-THE DELAY-JAKE

The next morning, Jake answered his phone to the concierge at the main entrance to the building, calling him to inform him there were police officers there to see him and Ms. Jones. He allowed them to enter the building, and it wasn’t long before two officers sat at his dining table. “Now, how can I help you, gentlemen?” “My records say Ms. Jones is staying here with you?” “After her hospital departure, we deemed this a safer place for her stay.” “I thought the security staff at the club where her attack happened captured the perpetrator of her assault.” “However, caution is necessary. Some individuals bring out their worst in this business. If that fan made bail, or they have friends. I’m sorry, I feel I should be able to trust you’ll keep this quiet. We’re engaged to marry, and the plans are almost complete for it. But please, I don’t want to talk about it. She doesn’t know the wedding plans are this far along.

CHAPTER 73- THE WHY AND THE POSSIBLE-JAKE

“Jake, what the hell? I can’t tell anyone about being in the witness protection. They won’t confirm or deny that I’m involved with the program, but they would kick me out if those officers poked around at the files or asked questions. Oh, god, this will force me to call them and speak to them about this. I don’t want to do that. I departed to avoid following their instructions. “Flipping burgers for a living is aberrant to me,” Josalyn expressed. As the elevator door closed, she turned against him. Her glare revealed everything to Jake. He could see them. “I secured permission for us to leave and have some time away. It also gave them a reason to rule you out of being involved. But what about your father? Could he know who you are and be happy to watch you from afar? He might have taken exception to Gena’s interview. If his people are having problems with the Kelso family. He might become more inclined to attack someone if he could do it without being caught.”

CHAPTER 74 - JOSALYN’S DISCOVERIES - JAKE

“I’m not connected to this. Except through Gena’s weird obsession with blaming me for her perceived failures. She’s so busy obsessing about those past failures and how to punish me for it. I don’t believe she’s planning her future career moves.” Josalyn didn’t want to connect the dots. Jake got it. She felt scared of all the unknowns. He moved closer to her and put his hand out to touch her so he could comfort her. The blue silk wrapper she wore felt warm and smooth to his touch. Jake knew she’d need to get dressed so they could leave. With limited time, the conversation grew crucial. He learned so much about her he couldn’t let it go. It seemed late would be too late. “What about you Josalyn? I have heard none of your plans, either.” Jake believed her response held great importance for her life and mindset. He trusted her for a positive outlook, only he had the power. Jake only needed to see the direction they needed to go in. He felt lost, as if traveling thr

CHAPTER 75-THE COTTAGE TRIP-JOSALYN

“I told them. Why do you think I boosted the security here? Why did I want you to leave the city? So, my people can control the situation. Getting married up there will have less chance of someone sabotaging it or going unnoticed if they attempt to harm you. Anyway, it’s beautiful. Can you imagine the photos? I’m sure people will be jealous for years after they see our secret getaway and we won’t tell them where it is.” Jake said. He smiled, knowing she’d always admired the grounds of the old inn for their beauty. But when they first married, they didn’t have the money to rent the inn or its grounds for their wedding. This time she’d have her dream wedding and not whatever they could scrape together. “Jake, this could harm not only me.” What about you? If you say this money is attractive to Gena. They might attempt to take it from you. Like blackmail.” They were back to her fears. He grasped her tendency to worry and its origin. Fear had consumed Josalyn’s mind

CHAPTER 76-MEMORIES OF JAKE AND HAPPINESS-JOSALYN

“We’ve got that love. Can I mention that our space allows for family growth? Jake tried to make it sound like a realtor trying to sell the property to her. It surpassed mere property. He desired a life to accompany it. His life before independence. “If we have a family. I’m still not sure about that. What if you decide to leave again? You did better without me around.” Josalyn wanted to go along with his perfect vision of the future, but she’d felt the smack of reality once too often for her to ignore it. She had to admit this was her desired long-term settlement. The house, though another, needed demolition before repairs. Her thoughts tangled with this. The new house won’t feel identical. Not to her. “Josalyn, stop it. I didn’t do better. I lost my father. My work was all that I had. Now I feel like my priorities have changed, and I just want us to have a second chance.” Jake couldn’t handle hearing this now. He would not leave. He lea

CHAPTER 77- SEEING THE COTTAGE AND REMEMBERING-JAKE & JOSALYN

“Okay, that’s good to know. Shouldn’t we bring in the bags?” Josalyn pointed to the bags. However, he desired to give her a tour beforehand.“It’s okay. There’s plenty of time for that. Remember, we aren’t alone here. We have staff for that.” Jake said. He found himself reminded Josalyn of that several times a day that they had staff for various jobs. He could see her getting better. She’d not fainted since that first day or had anything else gone wrong. But he’d tried his best to keep her from situations that could harm her. He’d see some of the horrible reactions and the long-term damage it caused. He wouldn’t allow it to happen to Josalyn. She had plenty in her life. Jake held the door for Josalyn as she entered, and he saw her reaction as soon as she saw the interior of the cottage. He would continue to call the thirteen bedrooms and nine bathrooms house a cottage. It now has both indoor and outdoor kitchens, along with a wine cellar and a pantry. He could see them here f

CHAPTER 78-HONESTY AND TRUST, THE BUILDING BLOCKS-JOSALYN

“I’ve got Nunzio setting up some heavy boundaries for when we’re married for me. I think he’s talking to Ben about it. So, he should call you soon to talk about setting them up for you as well. Or do you mean the Gena mess? She’s trying to ruin your reputation and we’ll deal with her. I want to enjoy these surprises and maintain our cheerful mood. I want the surprises to overshadow everything else in our lives.” Jake gave her a bright smile, but she knew its cause came from his nervousness. She could almost see him vibrating from his excitement. They reached the master bedroom, where Jake opened the two closets. Inside, one of them appeared full of clothing. “It’s full.” “I saw what you wore and much of it wasn’t up to par. As we marry, we must always appear good during our honeymoon, as we can’t predict when someone will capture us on camera. I don’t want you to feel self-conscious. It’s my wedding present to you. Everything you could want. I had

CHAPTER 79-CARING FOR JOSALYN-JOSALYN

Josalyn noticed the changes in Jake, and she tried to accept it. His words explained everything to her he’d done. How much he’d thought of her when he fixed up the old cottage. It wasn’t just an old lakeside house now. It became an oasis for them. He’d created spaces for her and himself that he’d wanted to share with her. Her biggest struggle was the spaces he built for nonexistent children. It reminded her of the baby she’d lost even as she learned she was pregnant with them. She hadn’t informed Jake of her miscarriage, as he was eager to meet her after leaving the hospital, as he desired a divorce. She felt her strength drain away, leaving her powerless and vulnerable. The worst part was his lack of concern for her whereabouts or her physical condition. Josalyn suffered from anemia and a few other issues that caused her body to reject her pregnancy. She’d struggled with it. Between the damage to her organs by her late diagnosis and the lack of iro

CHAPTER 80- LUNCH AND JAKE COMES CLEAN-JOSALYN

“Figuring out the word from the Studio and Gena’s deception wasn’t easy. The last time she conned me into dating her she lied to me and said she’d learned a valuable lesson. After I broke it off with her, I returned to Empire Nights. I got the surprise of seeing her kiss our agent like his tonsils were the key to her finding the fountain of youth. She didn’t hide any of it. I noticed a pattern in their behavior when I saw them together. She’d learned her lesson alright and that was how she’d hide her affairs better from me while not hiding them from everyone else. Her idea to use my pregnancy claim to win me back is absurd. We haven’t slept together in so long that any pregnancy she has won’t be mine.” Josalyn believed him. His anger felt genuine to her. He didn’t convince her, but tried to figure out how Gena had worked out that he was the father. His face screwed up as he fell silent while he tried to comprehend what he knew. “Jake, support the child, not her. She doesn’t
