CHAPTER ELEVEN

I scrunched my nose at the bratty tone in her voice and turned to look at her. She had an upturned smirk on her face like she thought she owned the place."And you are?" I asked my voice blank and impassive. "Bella Evers, Brandon's girlfriend” she said her tone dripping with complacency. I blissfully ignored her and stood up, heading for the door to knock and give the papers back to the nurse. This conversation wasn't worth my time."Did you not hear me?" she snapped irritated that I wasn't giving her the attention she so desperately craved.The nurse opened the door and took the papers from me "Thank you sir” she said and closed the door again.I nodded before returning to my seat and pulling out my phone, I had nearly forgotten Bella was still there until she spoke again."You can ignore me all you want but just so you know we'll be suing you for assault” she huffed stomping her foot like a child.Oh god kill me now I sighed inwardly feeling a pang of secondhand embarrassment.

CHAPTER TWELVE

Thalia’s POV I never expected to see Bella here, in the hospital of all places but considering how bruised Alexander’s fists were, she was likely here for Brandon, yet somehow she managed to track me down.She wanted to talk and normally, I wouldn’t have entertained her, but I wasn’t feeling normal anymore.So, here I was, sitting at the café in the hospital sipping on coffee with Bella."So it's true then” Bella began setting down her cup with a self-satisfied air "You're pregnant” Not anymore I thought but instead, I just nodded. She gave me a half-smile as if she dreaded this moment."Well, that’s a shocker” she added, dragging out the words. “So am I.” She paused watching me for a reaction but I just took another sip of my coffee. I couldn’t bring myself to care about her dramatics, but at least that explains why she was hanging around the OB/GYN section."I'm 14 weeks along" she said again clearly fishing for something, some sort of emotion from me.When I remained silent she

CHAPTER THIRTEEN

Thalia's POV He tilted his head returning my smile but concern still lingered in his expression."Is this an effect of the pill?" I chuckled softly "Maybe it is He wrapped his arms around me."I think I like these side effects" I laughed a bit louder this time. The elevator dinged as it opened behind us. A man came into view, our hands immediately fell from each other and the man's smile widened as he spotted Alexander. "You found her?" he asked stepping out of the elevator.Alexander nodded "She was...?" He said turning to me and I quickly filled in."I was at the cafe with Bella" I nodded"Good talk?” he asked I smiled, nodding again "Yes very good, it's why the side effects kicked in" I said, my voice bubbly, and Alexander's expression softened into a warmer smile. "Well I checked on the guy you said she, uh Bella, came with" Nolan said. "You roughed him up," he said, chuckling lightly. "And I'm not done," Alexander said, his tone stern. Nolan nodded in agreement "If he

CHAPTER FOURTEEN

Thalia's POV I placed my hands on the back of his neck, leaning into him, feeling his warmth and before I knew it our lips collided.It was as if everything around us had vanished, leaving nothing but us, his hand gripped my buttcheeks steadying me as his tongue slid into my mouth with practiced ease and I completely melted into him.I had stopped thinking. A kiss had never made me feel this way before. It was as if I had been craving it all along and right now I was being served. With shaky hands, I reached for Alexander's jacket and helped him shrug it off, his lips never leaving mine as I straddled him and he held me up effortlessly. His hands roamed over my body squeezing my buttcheeks. Our tongues were playing tag with each other now.His fingers traced the strap of my dress and with one swift move he undid it, sending a shiver throughout my body. We took a step back almost hitting the bed, and just as everything was falling into place, a knock on the door interrupted us. "Tha

CHAPTER FIFTEEN

Thalia's POV Each kiss left my skin tingling, a quiet gasp escaping my lips, as his lips set me on fire from the inside out.He found the perfect spot on my neck where my gasp was the loudest, and he sucked on it, sending sharp waves of pleasure through me. My fingers intuitively found their way into his hair tugging lightly, so desperate for more. He paused briefly and resumed his slow trail of kisses as his hands made their way from my waist to my stomach.Then without warning his fingers found my breasts cupping them roughly and I moaned, tugging at his hair harder this time. The heat between us building with every second, despite the water pouring above us. His mouth hovered above my chest for just a moment before he clasped onto my nipple and sucked hard while his other hand massaged my other breast.A louder moan escaped my lips as my skin burned under his touch. Then Alexander moved to my other breast and sucked on it with the same hunger, his hands rough and assertive shift

CHAPTER SIXTEEN

Thalia's POV "You're really strong Thalia" Cassandra said afterward, her voice soft and sincere "I don't know if you realize that" I let out a small chuckle, shaking my head. "I don't think you get it Thalia" she continued"If I had to go through losing my family, being forced into therapy, graduating college while managing all that grief, and coming back to take over my family's company, then being betrayed by my own husband and best friend... my story would have ended when my parents died" I let out a bitter laugh."But you Thalia, you took it all like a champ and fought every step of the way" "I still cry, I still let it get to me, and it still hurts like hell""And that's why you're different," she said, leaning forward. You let it get to you, but you know when to stop. You face everything life throws at you head-on, with grace and humility. You don't pretend to be okay. You push through it until you find yourself again" Her words hit me deep in my core and I blinked back th

CHAPTER SEVENTEEN

Thalia's POV "Hey Nolan" I said returning his smile with a curt nod."Didn't think I'd be seeing you again so soon" He smiled back awkwardly and glanced around the foyer "Me neither" he muttered rubbing the back of his neck ."But desperate situations call for desperate measures, I guess" Cassandra gave him a sympathetic look before Liam cleared his throat breaking the silence. "Let's go inside" Liam said his voice with a hint of humor "I'm starving" Cassandra perked up at his words her eyes twinkling "Good because I made your favorite," she teased giving Liam a playful nudge.Liam grinned pulling her closer and kissing her quickly on the lips, before dragging her by the hand toward the house. "Oh you are too good to me" he teased back "Guess I'll have to find a way to thank you properly later."We all followed closely behind, smiling as they continued their banter. I trailed beside Alexander, his hand resting on the small of my back as we moved toward the kitchen. Liam, Alexan

CHAPTER EIGHTEEN

Thalia's POV Nolan extended his hand gesturing for me to give him the phone. I obliged and he swiped on the screen for a few seconds before handing it back to me.In the image was a clear passport-like photo, and I recognized who he was."I recognize him” I said my voice a whisper "I've seen him around during my court visits a few years back” Nolan was quick to respond his brows furrowing."Did he speak to you? Do you think he has anything against you?" I shook my head trying to recall the specifics, any interaction."No, we never spoke he was mostly quiet which is why I noticed him in the first place” Cassandra's curiosity got the better of her “Who is he?" she asked, glancing between us.Nolan exchanged a look with Liam before Liam finally spoke up. “His name is Eugene Morris”"That can't be right” I said my voice shaky at the inaccuracy.“He was called Eugene Davis back then” "Yes he's supposed to be Eugene Davis” Alexander confirmed, his tone as if he were weighing his words

CHAPTER NINETEEN

Thalia's POV My mind wandered to Alex, I tapped out a quick message to him; 'Cass and I are heading out for a bit, we'll be back later I typed and hit send then typed something more Just wanted to let you know.'With that done, I headed upstairs to get ready. After I was done getting ready Cassie still hadn't come to my room.I glanced at my phone. She didn’t message either. I sighed and looked at myself in the mirror, adjusting my blouse.It was a cream-colored silk top with floral patterns for sleeves and it was tucked into high-waisted slim-fit navy pants. The pants hugged my curves and dips perfectly and I slipped into a pair of nude flats that were just comfortable for this small outing. Still no sign of Cassie, I decided to check on her, but quickly realized I had no idea where her room was"Gosh Cassie has to give me a tour of this house first thing in the morning” I muttered to myself.This place was a maze and it was getting ridiculous and embarrassing. I headed toward th

CHAPTER TWENTY

Alexander's POV After taking a much-needed break from searching through the endless piles of papers in the study, we dove right back in. I was already tired of looking, thinking of giving up when Liam shuffled through another stack of documents his brow furrowed in concentration.Then suddenly with a triumphant grin he said "I found it" Nolan and I snapped our attention to him, we moved toward the large oak desk where Liam stood flipping through a file. "What's the name on the document?" Nolan asked, leaning in closer."Eugene Davis" Liam replied I exhaled "I knew Father was involved with him" I muttered, Liam handed the file over to me and I briefly glanced over its contents before passing it to Nolan.It was like a small victory not enough for any sort of celebration though."Good work, guys I'll hand this over to the detectives and wait for their feedback" Nolan said running a hand through his hair. I nodded "Yeah the sooner we know who's responsible the stronger we get to r
