Look At What The Devil Drug In

Kole’s POVMonday rolled around fast as hell.I made sure to get my baby girl up and ready, holding her against my chest while she played with my tie like it was the most fascinating thing in the world. I glanced over at Keisha, and something about her felt… off.I cocked an eyebrow. “You okay, Keisha?”She sighed, dragging a hand down her face. “I’m dreading going into this office. Hopefully I don’t have another quote, unquote gag gift sitting on my desk.” She paused, then added, “Plus… I haven’t been feeling well lately.”That had my full attention.I looked at her more seriously now. “Do we need to take a trip to the doctor? You turning into Sienna or something?”She burst out laughing. “I’m on birth control.”I raised an eyebrow higher. “You know Sienna got pregnant on birth control twice.”She shot me a look. “Don’t put that shit on me. I am not pregnant. It’s just… Chicago winter weather always changing, allergies, and whatever.”I smirked. “It’s not winter. It’s spring.”She la

Guess Who

Keisha’s POV I take a deep sigh because, yeah… I just got that call, from Kole, and yeah, I have to take off on Thursday. I go ahead and alert the team that I won’t be in, keeping it simple because this situation? It’s already messy enough. I lean back in my chair, shaking my head slowly. Now how in the hell do you go to another state… and the previous state’s system doesn’t flag that you already filed for child support, didn’t produce a child, and got everything thrown out? It doesn’t make sense. One thing I can say about Wisconsin, though is they don’t just slap child support on somebody without proof. They actually require a DNA test and all that. So maybe she didn’t think that part through. Or maybe she did… and just doesn’t care. Either way, we’ll be there with all our documentation, and hopefully this gets tossed out just as fast as the last one. Still… I don’t know why she’s wasting her time. Kole said he was gonna do something drastic. I don’t know what that means ye

Family Ties

Shane’s POVEverything had been going good.No, better than good.It actually felt like a real family vacation for once. Isla was there with us, going to the parks, eating breakfast and dinner with us, laughing with the kids… acting like a mom.That alone had me thrown off.Even my cousin Stephanie pulled me to the side at one point like, what the hell is going on? Because Isla had never been like that before.Everything was smooth.All the way up until Tuesday night.I was bringing my bags downstairs, getting everything together for the morning. Isla was still over at my cousin’s house, and I was talking to Stephanie’s husband when he asked,“So you’ll be ready to go in the morning? What’s the plan?”“I’m gonna return the van,” I told him. “Then catch a shuttle to the airport.”That’s when Isla’s voice cut in.“What are you doing?”I turned, confused. “What do you mean?”“What do you mean you’re leaving?”“I’m leaving,” I said plainly.Her face twisted. “So you’re just gonna leave ou

Road Tripping

Maya’s POV I am so fucking excited.Yeah, I said it exactly like that.Last night, I already dropped Gabby off at my mom’s house, and of course my brother was there… along with his stuck-up-ass wife. He was going on and on about work, talking about how he had to write up more than half the staff because they kept coming in late, and the supervisor didn’t give a damn. Didn’t even act like he wanted the position.Honestly, I see why Keisha brought my brother in. It makes sense.But then, like always, Alexis had something to say.She rolled her eyes at me and said, “You don’t never keep your children.”I turned to her real slow.“First of all, I don’t have children. I have a child. And you really shouldn’t be speaking, because you don’t keep yours either. When you were in Arizona, your sister had them. Now you’re in Chicago, and my mama got them. So as a stay at-home wife, shouldn’t you be taking care of your own kids?”Yeah… that went left real fast.We started arguing out loud, and we

Cabin In The Woods

Shane’s POV It was a beautiful day.As we drove up toward Jordan Lake, I couldn’t help but smile. Something about this felt… different. Peaceful in a way I hadn’t felt in a long time.This was about to be my home away from home for the next few days.Just me…And this gorgeous woman beside me.And when I say we were about to have fun?Yeah… we were about to have fun.I had already arranged for groceries to be delivered ahead of time, so I was hoping everything would be waiting for us when we got there.And sure enough…As I pulled up to the secluded A-frame cabin tucked deep in the woods, I spotted the bags sitting neatly on the porch. The nearest neighbors were a good five minutes out, and the quiet out here?It hit different.Maya looked over at me, her face lighting up instantly.“Oh my God,” she said, smiling wide. “It has a dock… and kayaks. We should go kayaking tomorrow.”I chuckled. “Yeah… why not? Let’s try it.”She leaned over and kissed me, quick but warm.I pulled up clos

New Moves

Explicit Talks Ahead Maya’s POVI stayed right where I was, straddling Shane, watching that look in his eyes shift into something softer.He leaned up just enough to kiss me, quick and warm. I laughed against his lips, still finishing my food like nothing in the world was rushing us.“Come on,” I said after a second, exhaling. “Let’s go take our nap.”He kissed me again before standing, lifting me with him like I weighed nothing. I wrapped my arms around his neck, laughing as he carried me down the short hallway.“This better be the master,” I teased. “Because I didn’t check the other room.”“It is,” he muttered, smiling.And yeah… it was. Big, open, and quiet, just perfect.He eased us down onto the bed, bracing himself so he didn’t put his full weight on me. I shifted slightly beneath him, wrapping my legs around his waist.“I thought we were taking a nap,” I murmured.“We are,” he said softly, kissing the tip of my nose.I laughed. “Okay.”He kissed me again, slow this time, befor

New Moves Part 2

Maya’s POVThe moment Shane agreed, the air between us crackled with raw need and deep love. He stepped closer, eyes locked on mine, hands trembling slightly as they slid under the negligee. “God, Maya… you’re so fucking beautiful,” he breathed, voice thick with emotion. “I want every inch of you tonight.”He peeled the sheer fabric off me slowly, letting it drop, unhooked the barely there bra , then hooked his fingers into the tiny orange thong and dragged it down my legs, his thumbs grazing my skin like he was worshiping me. When I stood completely naked in front of him, he groaned low in his throat and pulled me hard against his body, kissing me deep and hungry, like he couldn’t get enough.He laid me back on the bed and settled between my thighs, spreading me open with gentle but firm hands. “I need to taste you first,” he murmured, voice rough. “Let me make you feel good.”His mouth was on me instantly... hot, wet, and relentless. He licked me slow and deep at first, tongue dragg

New Threats

Maya’s POV When I wake up, it’s still Wednesday.I hear Maya beside me soft, steady, and peaceful. She’s snoring just a little, and for a second, it almost makes me smile. Almost.Then reality hits.I roll over, grab my phone, and squint at the screen.“Shit.”It’s already 8 p.m. here… which means it’s 9 p.m. in Florida.I sit up fast, my chest tightening, and immediately call SJ. The phone rings once before he picks up.“What's up, Dad?”I let out a breath. “Hey, I was trying to catch you guys before bed.”He chuckles. “Dad, we’re not going to sleep no time soon. I don’t know about Lily and Sophia, but I’m up.”I relax just a little. “Alright. How was your day?”“Hold on, Dad.”I pause. “Hold on?”I hear movement of quick footsteps, a door closing, a shuffle. Then his voice comes back, quieter.“Okay, Dad…”Something in his tone makes my stomach drop.“What’s going on, son?”He exhales. “So today we went out with Cousin Stephanie, Mark, and the kids. Mom came too. We went to the wat

Courthouse Drama

Kole’s POVI’m up at the ass crack of dawn, getting ready to take this drive out to Racine County. Yeah, Racine County, and my woman and my child? They’re coming with me. Both of them.Keisha took the day off, and I’m glad she did. I wish it was for something better, but she’s coming to support me, and that’s what a good woman does. She stands by her partner.I step out of the shower, go through my morning routine, and throw on a clean, tailored suit. This isn’t just some side trip, I’ve also got work to do. I have two legal cases today, not one. First one at one p.m. , second at three. So yeah, I need to be sharp as I always am.As I tighten my tie, I glance over and see Keisha still knocked out in bed. I shake my head with a small laugh and walk over to the closet, pulling out something for her to wear today. Nothing too formal, just something nice. A flowy dress, a navy blazer, and some simple sandals. Court appropriate, but still her style.Chicago weather is on its usual nonsense

Courthouse Drama Part 2

Keisha’s POVAs I sit there watching all of this unfold, I don’t even know what to call her.I can’t call her by her name.I can’t call her a whore.Hell, I can’t call her anything.Because none of this makes sense.This chick literally just got a whole new body.The last time we saw her was well over a month ago and she was camped out in front of our offices like she had nowhere else to be. Then she just disappeared. There were no calls, no messages, just nothing.Now all of a sudden… she’s filing for child support in a whole different state?I almost laugh to myself.Okay. Fine.You wanted us here, well maybe not, but we're here.But the way she shows up?Looking like she just walked out of the Midnight Ballerina Club, and if you know, you know, and her friend right behind her looking the exact same way? Like they have been working at the Pyramid all night.Yeah… I already know this about to be some bullshit.I stand there with my diaper bag on one arm and my purse on the other wh
