All Chapters of Her Redemption. His Second Chance.: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

[William’s POV]I watch as Elise stands at the edge of the pool, watching me and waiting. From the look on her face, it is clear that she fully expects me to come and join her. Not wanting to disappoint, I remove my shirt and feel a rush of excitement rush through me due to the way her gaze immediately travels down my chest, to my abs, and finally to the v-line just above my pants.Letting a slow smile spread across my face, I don’t move while she continues to watch me, and when disappointment flashes in her eyes, I move forward.“Are you planning on swimming in your pants?” She asks when I reach.“No,” I respond, reaching out and grabbing her hand. “I was hoping you would take them off for me.”Growing quiet, I wait as she begins to understand what it is that I’m saying. And when a look of hunger flashes in her eyes, I know that she’s going to do exactly what I’ve asked, and that fact is confirmed when her hands reach out and begin to work my button. Once she has it free, she moves t

[Denali’s POV]I sit with Maria as she cuddles Serenity. Since she arrived so late the previous day, I waited until the next morning to introduce them. Now, she easily cradles Serenity in her arms while Tristan pouts at her side, but he isn’t the one being the biggest baby.Tearing my gaze from Maria, I look to where Rosco sits with his arms crossed and his gaze narrowed. Even from where I sit, I can feel the irritation that is rolling off his body, and it only ruins the calm atmosphere I am trying to present.“If you’re so worried, why don’t you hunt them down?” Jose suggests from his place beside the door. “Instead of sitting there brooding.”“I don’t know what you mean.” Rosco huffs, causing me to roll my eyes.Of course, he knew what Jose was referring to. Ever since William called Rosco and let him know that he was going somewhere with Elise, he has been acting like this.Although I understood the reason he was so on edge over the matter, I also knew that William and Elise were a

[William’s POV]I let out a sigh while I turn to take in Elise, who is sitting on the kitchen counter munching on grapes. She is dressed in nothing but a fuzzy robe, and it is ridden halfway up her thighs, causing my heart and my dick to do crazy things.“I’ll see what I can do.” I finally sigh, squeezing my phone while Rosco lets out an annoyed sigh on the other end. “I’m going to go now; thanks for warning me.”Hanging up, I shove my phone back into my pants pocket as I move toward Elise.“Was that the warden?” She asks, offering me a grape. “Has he sent a search team for you yet?”“Not quite,” I respond, accepting her offering. “He actually told me to stay away.”“Stay away.” She repeats, raising a brow. “Have we been banished from Emerald Moon for your bright idea?”“My idea?” I chuckle, leaning forward and kissing her lips. “No one made you come along with me.”“Hey,” she giggles, wrapping her legs around me. “A handsome man invited me to run away with him. I am nothing more than

[Elise’s POV]As long as I could remember, I lived in a small town with a farming family. They were well known for taking in children who weren’t wanted in the orphanage, and although they had all the workers convinced they were these caring people who truly wanted to help the kids, they just wanted free farm hands.Of course, I was chosen to be one of these free labor kids, and that’s how I found myself living with humans despite what I really was.The first ten years with them weren’t so bad if I blocked out the beatings I received and the way the older kids used me as their scapegoat so that when they messed up, I would be the one who received punishment.In the beginning, I thought if I simply remained quiet and did as I was told, they would forget I existed, but the more I did that, the more everyone decided to place the blame on me until I was locked away for being so disobedient.I was left in a small cellar that reekedwreaked of piss and shit with a bucket to do my business an

[William’s POV]“I won’t.”The words leave my lips as I collapse on the couch while Rosco and Denali continue to watch me. I know that they’re trying to find something in me that says I’m not being serious, but I truly was. Even if Elise and I were in the early stages of truly getting to know each other, not only physically but also emotionally, I was certain of one thing: she was the first woman I felt any semblance of emotion with.“Since you’ve come to a decision, go to her.” Rosco says, though it is clear he isn’t pleased. “Just don’t end up regretting it.”“You keep telling me that.” I chuckle, getting to my feet. “Do you think the third time will be the charm?”“Who knows.” He shrugs. “Just remember she has a sordid past that won’t be so easily overlooked.”“I’m aware.” I say, beginning to move. “But don’t we all?”Not waiting for a response, I begin to move until I spot Maria sitting on her heels, watching Elise as she speaks.Feeling a wave of relief slam into me, I quicken my
