His nostrils flare when he grunts, “For the record, I’m not single anymore, Lyla.You’re my old lady and soon everyone will know.”

I should be annoyed.I know we made a deal for the time being.Though, after spending time together again, I’m kinda getting used to the idea as well.Ugh.If my brother and his president didn’t interfere with arranging our first meeting?We’d probably still be together because our connection, chemistry, and chats were a great start to a relationship.

“Things are different now,” I tell him.“We have a tiny person to think about.I don’t want us to do this for the wrong reason and turn whatever there still is between us miserable and twisted.”

“I have been miserable and twisted without you,” Pax confesses.

Throwing a glance at the cinnamon mints on his bedside table, I release a sigh.If I’m being honest with myself?It’s what I’ve been as well.

Honesty is best, so I give him the words in reply, “Me too.”

We stare at one another and my heart skips a beat inside my chest.The chemistry between us, along with a lot more, never was the issue; everyone else’s interference was.

“Deal or no deal, we’re doing this,” I state with a firm voice.

There’s no use in holding a grudge about the past when you need to focus on the future.At this point I’m fucking shit up for myself and our unborn child by holding Pax at a distance.I can’t even find a good reason anymore why I should fight him on this.Not when being around him fills my heart with joy.

“Second chance with a clean slate from here on out.”Pax nods.“No deal forged, no rules, no bullshit from others.Just us.”

I give him a tiny smile.“Just us and our little girl.”

His eyes turn molten and the heat of it glides down until it settles low in my belly.The way this man eagerly wants me back when I’m the one who dumped him and kept pushing him away shows his dedication.Pax has always been sure about us and kept trying to fight for me.I guess it’s time to show him that the fight is now ours to make our relationship succeed long-term.

CHAPTER FOUR

–PAX –

Lyla is still sleeping when I reach for my laptop.Yesterday she was tired after dinner and crawled into bed.She slept the whole night, and I guess she needed it.It’s also why I’m letting her sleep in a bit longer.

I know she mentioned not having any issues concerning the pregnancy, but her body is still doing a lot more than her normal daily routine and it shows by the amount of food and rest she needs.The sight of her sleeping makes my chest tighten.

It feels damn right to have her in my bed.Her hair is a scattered mess on the pillow, mouth slightly parted, a little snore slipping over her lush lips while her whole face is serene.The day she found out about my president and Lee, her brother, arranging the appointment to have my cock pierced by her is still etched into my brain.

It’s a point in my life where I knew nothing would ever be the same from that day forward.The way my body reacted when I first laid eyes on her is something no other woman triggered inside me.It was the same day Lee scheduled the appointment with Lyla ’cause they all saw I was very fucking interested.But if they hadn’t arranged the appointment to get pierced?I would have pursued Lyla anyway.

Even if they warned me away the second I asked about her.At first, they wanted to protect her due to what happened to her neighbor, then they changed their mind and would rather have me distract her.None of it matters.Thank fuck my seed took root in her womb, it brought us together again.
