Coming Home For Christmas

**+AN - Just to let you know I've made some changes, so if things don't add up that's why***** Lacey's POV “Hello there, Lacey” “Oh my god, it's the bad men” Dayton says before I can speak and my eyes widen in shock as my heart fills with anger and confusion when [ realise what he just said about the person standing in front of me Oh no, this isn't good Well, at least for him it's not good

Iturned my head to look at my kids and my anger spiked when I'saw the fear and anger in their beautiful blue eyes Luckily, Dayton had spoken only loud enough for me to hear but not for the two men in front of me to hear him “Eddie? what are you doing here?” “Klayton sent me here to give you these as a peace offering for what happened” He says while offering me a bouquet of red camations What the fk? “Oh, thanks”Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

I'say sounding confused as I accept the flowers Why would Klayton send me a bouquet of red carnations as a peace offering when he knows I love roses? “Hey, kids" Chapter 47 - Another Traitor. ~) Eddie greeted my children who ran up the stairs Normally, I wouldn't be happy with this kind of behaviour because they're being rude but I don't care right now “Hmm, that was weird" “Sorry about that, they've been a bit off ever since their auntie was attacked”

“I don't blame them, something like that has got to be very traumatic for them” Yeah, it was I thought to myself with a smile as I narrowed my eyes to the guy next to Eddie "So, who's your friend?” "Oh, this, this is...” Eddie drifted off with a look of panic in his eyes “I'm his younger and sexier brother, Vincenzo but you can call me Vinny, beautiful” Vincenzo says with a smile and I narrow my eyes at him

He looks so familiar to me but I can't work out why or where I may have seen him from before

“Really? you look like you're twelve" I say and he chuckles “I'm eighteen, gorgeous" Jesus Do you remember when eighteen-year-olds used to look like eighteen-year-olds and twelve-year-olds used to look like twelve-year-olds? I mean, who changed the rules of Mother Nature? This kid looks like he's still waiting for puberty to smack him in the

Chapter 47 - Another Traitor. J face and he claims to be eighteen, I don't buy it “Are you hitting on my wife, young man?" Logan appeared from behind me and wrapped his arms around my waist as Vinny groaned “Urghll, you're married? figures the hottest chicks are always married”

Vincenzo says earning a slap to the chest from Eddie “Stop hitting on her i***t, the boss won't be happy if he finds out you're hitting on his woman” “What did you just say?" I ask confused Did he just say the boss won't be happy if he finds out Vincenza's hitting on his woman? No, that can't be right “Itold him to stop hitting on his boss's cousin because Klayton won't be happy about it"

“Oh, right...s0, you work for my cousin as well" "Yeah, I'm a new recruit” Vincenzo says with a smirk which didn't sit right with me “Sorry guys, we've gotta go, my lady here needs to rest before we head back to the hospital to see Carmella” If you are not reading this book from the website: ss.com then you are reading a pirated version with incomplete content.

"See you around” "See ya" The boys left and we headed back inside of our mansion Chapter 47 - Another Traitor. odd [rested my back against the door as I looked down at the bouquet in my arms with confusion on my face “What's on your mind, beautiful?"

“None of this makes any sense, Logan" Isay as I look up at him “Why would Klayton send me carnations when he knows I love roses? and why would he have Eddie send them to me instead of a florist or himself bringing them? and why did the kids say they were the bad guys? you don't think Eddie is also betraying Klayton, do you?" “I don't know, love, we'll decide what to do after you've gotten some rest” Logan says and I look at him shocked

“Seriously, Logan? I can sleep now, I need to talk to Klayton" “And you will after you've gotten some sleep" He says and I huff in annoyance “Look babe, you haven't slept in four days and when you have, it's been either in a chair or on a couch and you've been disturbed because of either Cade, Carmella’s parents or the hospital staff coming and going” "But I can't just go to sleep, I need to speak to Klayton and tell him about Eddies visit” "Ok, if it makes you feel any better and it makes you do as I

say, I'll call Klayton and speak to him, alright" / can't exactly say no now, can /? Ok, fine" “Good girl" Logan grabbed hold of my hand and led us up to our bedroom As soon as I walked into our room, it felt like Iwas in a trance and I

Chapter 47 - Another Traitor. 2? subconsciously kicked off my shoes as I made a beeline for the bed walking like a zombie before flopping down on top of it “Are you ok, love?" “Twill be when all of this bullshit is over and done with and we can finally go back to our normal lives, maybe even go on a nice honeymoon” “Really? and where would you like to go?” Logan asks me as he sits down next to me and even though my eyes are closed, I could tell that he was smiling from the tone of his voice which had a hint of amusement and a whole lot of happiness in it

“Hmm, somewhere hot with white sandy beaches, crystal clear oceans and no evil bastards to ruin our fun for us” “I think I know the perfect place” Logan lays down next to me and wraps his arm around my back as he nuzzles his head closer to mine “Sleep honey..we'll deal with all of the other bullshit later on, ok” But “No buts, now sleep”

Logan kissed my forehead and I instantly relaxed as 1 drifted off to sleep Several Hours Later.

Waking up alone is never a nice feeling, especially when you're married to someone like Logan Black but I'm grateful that I did now because my husband has got wandering hands even in dire situations like the one we're currently in and I need to have a shower with a clear head and not have my head being clouded by Logan, his incredible body and his insatiable appetite for s*x

Anyway, after having my shower, I quickly changed into something casual since I plan on going back to the hospital later on tonight and after blowdrying my hair, I braided my hair in a side fish plait “Oh good, you're awake, I need you to come with me, love” Took up at Logan and narrow my eyes at him “You look different, why do you look different?” “Oh this" He says whilst pointing to his face and I nod my head

"Yeah, that" “Well, this is what happens when a husband finally gets his wife to sleep” “I don't understand” Lask confused “I must've been more exhausted than I thought I was because I've been so worried about you as well as looking after our kids and doing my job and I fell asleep not long after you did” “This is a result of you sleeping?” “Yeah and also having a shower and shave as well"

He says and I smile even though guilt ate me up “I'm sorry, babe, I didn't mean to neglect you or our family or leave you as a one-man army here...t's just I feel bad if I leave Carmella, she's done so much for me and now it's my turn to be there for her” “I know, babe and you've got no reason to feel bad, I just want you to take better care of yourself" “And Twill" Isay with a smile as I walk over to Logan and kiss his lips "Where are the kids?"

“They're in LJ. and Dayton’s bedroom, they've been in there ever since dinner” He says shocking me “Dinner? is it that late? why didn't you wake me?" “Because you needed to sleep, now come on, you need to eat and I prefer you do it before Klayton gets here because knowing your stubborn ass, you'll put it off again” “Hey, I'm not stubborn” Isay feeling offended and Logan rolls his eyes as if to say Jfyou say so, Lace “Anyway, let's go"

Logan grabbed hold of my hand and led us out of our room We were about to pass the boy's bedroom when we overheard our eldest three babies talking about Eddie and Vincenzo I hate to invade our children's privacy and eavesdrop on them like this but sometimes it's necessary “Why did you say those two men were the bad men when they weren't, Day?"

“Because they were with the other bigger and badder men and they were filming them beating up auntie Carm” WHAT? "He's right, Lo, the younger guy even said that they should kill auntie Carmella because she might recognise them if she survives but I don't understand why because we don't know them” That's true The kids have never met Eddie, well, not really and today was the first time we met Vincenzo

"And why didn't the creepy men just take us? I mean, isn't that the reason why he attacked our auntie in the first place because he wanted to kidnap us?" Teddy asks with fear in her voice making my anger spike to a whole new level “I swear I'm gonna stick a rusty knife up Trevor's piss hole and a poisonous cactus up his ass when I get my hands on him" Isay barely above an angry whisper “Jesus, I hope I never get on your bad side, baby" “You have done many times, Logan but a nice little threat of no s*x or the guest bedroom soon has you behaving like a good little boy”

“He didn't want to kidnap us, he wanted too..mum, dad" A startled Logan Junior says as we walk into his room “What's going on, kids? what are you hiding from us?" Lask the triplets who share a worried glance with each other “Your mother asked you a question and we expect an answer right now” Teddy looks at her brothers who look like they're being their usual stubborn selves but I knew my girl won't be, especially not in a situation where they're potentially in danger

Dayton says while glaring at his sister “No Dayton, you shut up” Itell him sternly and he quickly backs down “Go on, Teddy"

Teddy takes a breath before speaking Chapter 47 - Another Traitor. / “Mummy, the bad man said to tell you that if you don't want him to hurt you, daddy or us then you should do as he says when he sends you a gold envelope" Teddy says with a quiver in her voice and a trembling bottom lip “Is this true boys?" "Yes, mummy" “And this is why you were afraid to talk to us about this?

because you thought this man would hurt us?" Logan asked them and all three of them nodded their heads frerreg assholes Ithought to myself while closing my eyes “What I don't understand is why they attacked Carmella if they had no plans of taking our kids yet" Logan muttered to me in confusion but our kids heard him "Because three men grabbed us and auntie Carmella

thought they were kidnapping us so she tried to defend us but then two other guys appeared out of nowhere and attacked her" “I thought it was because they wanted to punish uncle Klay by hurting mum and that's why they hurt auntie Carmella because mum loves her like we do with each other, that's what the blonde one said" “It was both” Logan Junior said sounding annoyed “Are you mad at us, mummy?"

Teddy asks on the verge of tears “No, of course not" I'said whilst shaking my head as I knelt down in front of my little girl and embraced her in a hug before being joined by Logan Junior and Chapter 47 - Another Traitor. —s Dayton “Guys, why did you call those two men at the door the bad men if they weren't the ones who attacked your auntie?”

Logan asked as he knelt down next to us “Because they were there, daddy, they were with the bad men which makes them bad men" What? “Are you sure?" “Yes, mummy" “It seems that Klayton has got more than one traitor in his midst” "What the f**k did you just say?" A deep, husky voice says from behind us

I'snap my head to the doorway where an irate Klayton and a shocked Cassidy are standing "Did you just say I've got more than one traitor?" "It seems so, Klay" I'stand up along with Logan as Klayton runs a hand roughly through his hair npeeyin Before you speak, let your words pass through three gates: Is it true? Is

it necessary? Is it kind? ~ Buddha Just a thought for the day.
