Chapter 50
I placed my hand to the back of his neck “Yes, I’m sorry for hiding this from you Leon. But not until after the wedding I don’t want to be fat in that expensive wedding dress your dad bought me” I said putting my foot down.
He sighed but he was smiling. “Alright, I’m sure I can work with that” he said before placing one little kiss on my forehead.
Leon started to pull away to leave but I wasn’t remotely satisfied. I pulled him back and leaned in to kiss him on the lips. Leon moaned and started to kiss me back. Leon slowly guided me to the kitchen and lifted me up onto the counter.
His hands grabbed my waist squeezing. “watching you confused for a straight hour has seriously cheered up evening” he whispered his lips moving down to my neck. I grabbed his hair pulling his head back.
I leant in kissing his lips making sure to tug on his lips.
“you’re evil” I commented.
He simply pushed the straps of my top off my soldiers kissing my shoulders and down to my breasts before mumbling.
“I know”
Leon made sure to cover my body in kisses.
“your doctor dropped off your fresh new batch this morning” he told me. I groaned leaning my head on his chest. His chest rumbled with laughter.
I hit him as we sat on the couch together as Jayson was watching storks on the TV. A movie about some birds delivering babies.
“when were you ever good at keeping secrets from me Lizzy” he said rubbing my leg as we watch the movie with Jayson.
Unfortunately, he was right. I wasn’t very good at keeping secrets.
I’ve come to the conclusion that I can not keep secrets from Leon anymore. I don’t plan to from now on.
Leon POV
“Liz, where are you. You can’t use our son for your own needs” I shouted running up the stairs to find this woman of mine. I absolutely despise going to these events mainly because it’s full of gossip-hungry people and the media who don’t know when to shut up.
I have tried my bed to stay out of the public eye since all the drama, but Liz seems to think that we need to go, and I guess she’s picked tonight seeing as she’s probably bribed Jayson with candy to bring me my clothes for tonight.
Try saying no to a 3-year-old I dare you.
I found Liz sitting in her towel drying her hair. If I wasn’t so annoyed I would have taken advantage of this situation. Not only am I annoyed that she is, so hell-bent on going out tonight, but I found out two of my employees were sharing private documents to the dark web. Brilliant.
“come on Leon it will be great, it will be like a date” she tries to reason with me as I would even enjoy going tonight. If she wanted a date I can easily take her out with no complications.
“I’m still not going; I’d rather stay home with you and Jayson than go to this stupid event,” I said firmly as I made a beeline for the room door, but Liz had other plans as she pulled at my arm roughly.
She pulled at me with that much force her towel practically slipped off her body leaving my eyes to trail down her silky skin that she just creamed with some special lotion that she bought. I pulled her close covering her body with my own. She was completely natural for me with no makeup, no sticky substances in her hair and smelling fresh and fruity.
I can’t wait for her body to glow when she becomes pregnant again, growing a baby is probably one of her favourite experiences and I am fully prepared to make sure that she fully enjoys it this time round. I might even send Jean away when the baby is born so that we can both have a hands-on experience.
I won’t lie, every time we have sex now I have the urge to push harder and deeper to make our chances increase.
“I know you are trying your hardest to prove to me what a good man you are but seriously when was the last time you let your guard down. I don’t want to live like this knowing that you’re living for me and not yourself” she tenderly stroked my jaw.
Bloody hell no wonder she’s a good writer her words never fail to stop my beating heart.
“I’m not just living for myself Lizzy, I’m living for all of us and id rather be here at home with my family” I know I was being stubborn, but can’t she just accept it.
Her annoyance was clear as day. It was almost funny to see her looking at me like that, but I knew I would be in real trouble if I even smiled right now. I’m literally telling my lips to not move a muscle. All I could do was stand and stare at her as she walks away from me, her beautiful toned body for me to just admire.
I had not for once second stopped groaning and complaining since we left the house. Not only was Liz wearing the sexiest dress and her lips painted red just how I liked it. She was also making sure to not even listen to a single word I was saying.
I swear Hailey is hiding somewhere telling her exactly what to do to get me riled up, she doesn’t normally have this much control over her actions.
I stood outside our car patiently waiting for her to exit the passenger seat. The cameras zeroed in on her beautiful long legs and went crazy when she finally showed everyone here her face. She was glowing tonight.
My hand went around her waist as I closed the door and handing my keys to the valet, the young guy looked absolutely excited when he saw the car we arrived in. must be his lucky day.
“don’t scratch it alright” He nodded quickly. I guided Liz inside, she made it her mission to smile at everyone she met. I was proud to have such a great woman by my side but still, I’d rather be home.
Liz decided to go straight to the wolves after we were pictured, she smiled at the reporter and pulled me to her side.
The woman who I had seen a number of different times and all types of events hugged Liz and smiled at me. “This is an honest pleasant surprise, I don’t think any of us thought we would see you two again, looking ever so happy” ahh, I thought straight to the point.
I gritted my teeth “He can’t get rid of me that easy” Liz joked with her. Liz wrapped her fingers around my own probably sensing my annoyance already.
“Who would want to Charlize, you look like a million dollars tonight,” she said to Liz who just smiled back.
Now that comment I have problems with, compliment my Liz every day I don’t mind, well unless you’re a guy and want her for yourself.
“Thank you, it’s really nice to get out with Leon for once it feels like its been a long time” which has truth to it.
“I vaguely remember you putting on a show for Leon the last time you were out together” oh don’t bloody remind me.
Torture.
“Anyways I’ll let you two go inside, enjoy your night,” she said after looking behind us, probably someone far more interesting is coming up the carpet.
That’s fine, anything I can do to get away from all these questions.
I took Liz’s hand and pulled her inside. Liz was an honest pro in those heels, so she didn’t even have to worry to keep up with me.
But she didn’t have to keep up with me when I stopped suddenly leaving her to nearly trip over my feet.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Out of all the reasons why id dint wants to come out tonight, this has got to be one of the highest on the list.
“What is she doing here, isn’t she ashamed” Liz commented behind me, as we both stared at Emily across the room.
“There’s still time to back out,” I said pulling at her arm but of course, Liz stood her ground like the powerful woman she is.
