Chapter 55

Brooding

Ellis has been surprising me. | honestly thought the thrill of fatherhood would wear off, but it didn’t. He visited the kids when he could. He did school drop-offs and had meals with them. He took over Luis’ responsibilities in their lives, and now my brooding best friend was jealous.

He even replaced my nwith his on the pick and drop-off board at their school. I’m surprised the pa para zzi haven't published anything yet,” Luis pouted. We were eating breakfast at our restaurant. CC had the press in her pockets. That woman had so much power in the city, and no one would dare publish what she didn’t allow.

I'm sorry you're feeling left out, baby,” | cooed.

” How dare he?!” Luis slammed his palm against the glass table, and

the customers in the restaurant glanced our way in worry. He was being dramatic about this whole thing. ” He thinks he can waltz in after five years and be the father of the year!”

Well, they live with you and not him,” | said. | was being extra gentle today because | knew he’d been stressing, especially now that his inner Lycan, Loki, was calling out to the woman he had a one-n stand with. He’d been looking for her, but she just vanished.

For how long, with how things are moving, they’ll just be spendi nights at his place,” he scoffed.

‘No, that won’t happen. Do you think I'd let my children near that viper, Charlotte?” | said. He knitted his eyebrows together in confusion.

“You don’t know,”

Know what?” | asked.

Charlotte doesn’t stay with Ellis, hun. The two live completely separate lives,” he informed me, and my heart pounded against my chest. Ellis didn’t reside with his mate? But why?

‘Because he doesn’t love her,’ My lycan, Vee, was quick to answer. She was giddy and eager like a child in a candy store. | must admit | felt a sudden way to hear this news. Was thrilled too? 2

How do you know that?” | asked.

‘| know everything about people around the twins- Which is Ellis, now

he’s my business,” he said casually. A smile curled on my lips.

Oh, you little - Sly woman. You're excited about this,” he angled his head, pointing atwith his index slender finger.

‘No, I’m not. | have a boyfriend, and my CEO’s personal life is none of my business,” | expressed, heat creeping to my cheeks. | had no choice but to cover my cheeks with my hand. Luis smirked at me.

F uck, | hated that he knewso well.

Stop givingthose eyes,” | groaned,

What eyes?” he smiled, givingknowing eyes.

“The goofy smirk, and all,”

‘Oh, Love. Ellis, David.... Girl, you’re in trouble,” he was having to much fun.

“I'm with David, and I’m meeting his parents soon,” | informed quickly before his mind went somewhere else.

“Isn't it a little early to meet the parents?” he questioned.

No, we are taking it slow, and this is the next natural thing,”

Have you f ucked him yet?” he asked, smirking at me. | drew in a breath and expelled.

11

11

Not yet,”

But you are attracted to him, right?”

Of course. He’s hot but whenever we start | just can’t,” | confessed. | could see David was injured every t| withdrew from him, but | couldn’t help it. Fear enveloped me, and | started to shake. It was just like how it happened in New York with Michael. Maybe like me, your body just wants one person,”

“No. | will have to be with David sooner or later,” | firmed. It isn’t him you want to be with, it’s Ellis. A small voice insidespoke. | changed the topic and asked about his business since he couldn’t get his nose out of mine.

How is the search for the mystery enchanting woman going?”

Search? Why would | search for her?” he played dumb, drinking his

coffee.

“| know you're searching for her. | heard your phone call last night with a man asking about the ‘ Witch’,” | informed him. He sighed in

defeat,

“It was the man who owns the club we met,”

“What will you do when you see her again? Thank her for the b of your life?” | chuckled.

“| don’t know. Maybe if | see her, Loki will be pleased, and final can move on from that witch,” he was annoyed. | smiled at him a was brooding. Luis didn’t know it yet but he would fall hard for woman. Call it women’s intuition.

“So any leads on her whereabouts?”

#1

No, leads. This is the first tI've been unable to locate someon Da mn,”

| went to the office after my breakfast with Luis. He didn’t wantto leave, but | had so much work to do today. | focused on my job. | tried not to think about Ellis, but It’s all | did. His relationship with Charlotte was so complex. Why didn’t they stay together? Why didn’t they mark each other yet?

Ellis was the kind of man who loved loudly. His way of love was physical touch, but whenever | saw them together, they were distant. Not only by proximity but emotions.

| threw my pen against the wall in frustration. | was giving my ex, and his mate too much thought.

The door opened, and David walked in. He wore a smile on his lips.

Vee wasn’t too pleased to see him, and she snickered something

unintelligent. | put her, on time-out.

“You're brooding,” David said softly. He took steps towards my desk.

Ellis, we -” | bit my tongue hard after that nescaped escaped my lips. David stopped in his tracks, his eyes were ferocious. M Sunshine Princess Author

Ellis, we -” | bit my tongue hard after that nescaped escaped my

lips. David stopped in his tracks, his eyes were ferocious.

Ellis?” he scoffed, crossing his arms against my chest. | went to him instantly, holding his arms.

I'm sorry,” | apologized for calling him Ellis. David was heaving.

“| was thinking about him because of the kids, and his nleft my lips,” | was rumbling my words now. | inhaled and said sincerely.

I'm so sorry, babe,” | said, kissing his lips to soothe him. He didn’t kissback. He pulled away from me.

11

‘| understand,” he said quietly. He was hurt. We stayed silent for a

few minutes.

David raised his fingers, caressed my jaw softly, and kissed my forehead. He escortedback to my seat, and he sat on top of my

desk. We were close.

“| wanted to talk to you about something, but | don’t know if | now,” he told me.

“No, please tell me,” | encouraged.

It's a business proposal. Can we do it tomorrow over dinner?” he asked, and | raised my eyebrows.

#1

Business. Should | worry?”

$1

No, my love. Not at all,” he smiled warmly at me, kissing my hand

still worried a bit. | understood he hated working under Ellis.

11

Okay. When?”

Tomorrow?” Tomorrow was Saturday, and we were to go to CC’s manor for brunch.

No. I can’t. CC invited us to her home,” | informed him. He had a faraway look in his eyes. | held his hand, and his gaze traveled back

tome.

Are you going?”

“Yes, | couldn’t deny Christina Carter. She properly wants to meet the

twins,”

“4

Okay. I'll cwith you,” he said. | shook my head no. It would cause sdrama if he were there.

“I'll be good. | want to be there for you as Charlotte will be there and won't make it easy for you. You need me,” he said. | sighed in defeat, not wanting to argue with him especially since what happened

earlier.

“| want to embrace you. I’ve been missing you a lot lately,” he purred. | stood up and wrapped my arms around his neck while his arms went around my waist. He heldtenderly while inhaling my nt.

“| like your smell, Love,” David heldtighter, and | let him.

To my shock, the door opened, and Ellis walked into the offic froze, seeing us in an embrace, his face emotionless as he look our position.

1 detached myself from him and faced our boss.

‘The CEO just walks into his manager's office without knocking?” David was pis sed. Ellis didn’t retort. He seemed taken aback by u Why was he acting like this?

Surprise!” My kids cfrom behind Ellis. | walked past David w

a gasp and got on one knee, opening my arms to hug my children. They were still in their school clothes. | hugged them tenderly. 11

11

Surprise indeed. What are you guys doing here?” | beamed, staring up at Ellis.

“| picked them from school, and we decided to chere- | gave them a tour, and they wanted to surprise you,” Ellis explained. His voice was a monotone. After the twins hugged me, they went to greet David as they usually do.

Mommy, your office is lovely. | can see all the buildings!” Solara

cheered, going closer to the glass window. ” But Daddy’s way bigger and nicer,”

He owns this whole building. Do you know that?” Cayden asked me.

I noticed he didn’t call Ellis’s Dad. It would take stto be

comfortable with it.

Thank you for telling me,” | responded, ruffling his hair. “We even sat in his spinning chair, and it vibrates!”

The twins were excited to see my office and asked many questions.

David, do you work here too?” Cayden asked. David tore his g from Ellis and wore his perfect smile that felt so practiced, “Yes,”

Can you show us to your office?” Solara asked sweetly. David looked conflicted, glimpsing between Ellis and me. He nodded held their hands as they exited my office.

| was with Ellis in the office. Just us two. My heart started to thu against my chest.

PDA in a place in a place of work, Ms Chasia. Do you read compa policies?” he said, there was humor in his tone. It putat ease.

“PDA- Public Display of affection. We were in my office, Sir,” | walked closer to him. | don’t know why | was, but a strong urge madego to him. | had no control over my legs. At this moment, | felt like Ellis would tellto do something, and I'd gladly oblige.

“|

Thank you for bringing them here. They are happy,” | told him softly.

“Making them happy is my priority. They are my center too,” he smiled gently. His smile candidly melted my heart each time. Love, you are my center. You're my center, faded words of Ellis replayed in my head. | was the center of his universe. He’d tell me that. Oh, | missed these words from his lips. However, he said too. Was | still his center?

Too?” | whispered, and he took one step closer. My heart was going crazy like my inner lycan. | couldn’t think straight. | was over my head with this man, and if | wasn’t careful, I'd ruin everything.

“Yes. You'll always be my center, Love,”
