Amy sat in her office looking through the pictures she took from the last photoshoot the agency held. She felt arms wrap around her and lips on her neck. She smiled.
“Hey babe,” Amy said.
“Hello my love,” Matthew said.
“Finished for the day?” Amy asked.
“Yes, how about you?” Matthew asked.
“Almost done,” Amy said.
“How about Chinese for dinner,” Matthew said.
“Sounds amazing,” Amy said.
“I'll call it in and we can pick it up on the way home,” Matthew said.
“All right, don't forget my faves,” Amy said.
“I know, I won't,” Matthew said. He kissed her and went out the door. She heard footsteps and looked up and saw her father.
“Hi Dad,” Amy said.
“Hi sweetheart, how they look?” Jack asked.
“You should know the answer to that,” Amy said.
“Of course I do,” Jack said.
“What's your plans for the night?” Amy asked.
“I've got a date,” Jack said.
“Oh?” Amy said.
“Yeah, her name is Rachel, she's friends with Jamie,” Jack said.
“So she's young,” Amy said.
“Only by seven years, honey,” Jack said.
“Okay, if you need to be rescued...” Amy said.
“Text our code word and you come find me using our family locator,” Jack said.
“Yep,” Amy said.
“Hey,” JJ said.
“Hey bro,” Amy said.
“What's up,” Sam said.
“Dad has a date,” Amy said.
“With who, pops?” Sam asked.
“A friend of Jamie's,” Jack said.
“Her name is Rachel and she's seven years younger than Dad,” Amy said.
“Wow, call us if you need help,” JJ said.
“Or to be rescued,” Sam said.
“He already said he would text the code word,” Amy said.
“Okay so sis, what do you have planned?” Sam asked.
“Matt is ordering Chinese to pick up on the way home,” Amy said.
“For all of us?” Sam asked.
“Just me and him,” Amy said.
“Aww come on, don't you want to spend time with your favorite brother,” JJ said.
“Excuse me, I'm the favorite,” Sam said.
“No I am, because I'm the youngest,” JJ said.
“So I'm the oldest and I helped take care of you after Mom left,” Sam said.
“So, she loves me more than you,” JJ said.
“Boys,” Jack said.
“I love you both the same, I'm not picking a favorite brother, it wouldn't be fair, besides I live with Matt,” Amy said.
“Food should be ready for pick up when we get there, hey guys,” Matt said.
“Matthew,” Jack said.
“Sir,” Matthew said.
“I want you to be ready in case I need you guys,” Jack said.
“Date?” Matthew asked.
“Yes,” Jack said.
“I'll tell you on the way home,” Amy said.
“Matt, how much food did you order?” Sam asked.
“Just enough for me and my girl,” Matthew said.
“She's our sister,” JJ said.
“I know but she's my girlfriend,” Matthew said.
“I'm ready to go, babe,” Amy said.
“I'll call you guys later,” Jack said.
“Have a good night, sir, call or text if you need us,” Matthew said.
“I will,” Jack said.
“Bye pops,” Sam said.
“Bye Dad,” JJ said. Jack left the room followed by Sam and JJ. Amy got her stuff together and held Matthew's hand and they walked out the door locking up the building behind them. They got into his car and picked up dinner and went home to their condo.

Chapter 2

Amy and Matthew arrived home after picking up dinner. They curled up on the couch feeding each other dinner. Her phone beeped and she picked up her phone and looked at it and looked at him.
“Help?” Matthew asked.
“Yes let's go,” Amy said. They ran out the door calling her brothers as they went. They got into his car and headed out to where her father was. They arrived at the club and ran inside and saw three guys had her father pinned against the wall.
“Hey let him go!” Amy said.
“I don't take orders from you, lady,” Greg said.
“Hey,” Sam said.
“Let him go!” JJ said.
“You aren't my boss,” Greg said.
“I am, Greg, let him go now,” Lucas said. Greg let Jack go and Amy went to him and checked him.
“I'm fine sweetheart,” Jack said.
“You stringing my sis along?!” Greg said.
“No he isn't, Greg, that's his daughter,” Rachel said.
“Daughter? You robbing the cradle?” Greg asked.
“He's only seven years older than me, Greg,” Rachel said.
“I'm the oldest child and Dad was 18 when I was born,” Sam said.
“I'm sorry, I'm just protective of my sis,” Greg said.
“That's a good thing, these two are protective of their sister,” Jack said.
“Yep,” JJ said.
“Yep,” Sam said.
“Who is this guy?” Greg said pointing to Matthew.
“He's my boyfriend, jerk,” Amy said.
“Watch how you talk to me,” Greg said.
“Oh really, how exactly, am I supposed to talk to you,” Amy said.
“With respect,” Greg said.
“Enough, Greg, go to the office, now,” Lucas said.
“Yes, boss,” Greg said. Greg walked off to the office. Amy looked at him.
“I'm Lucas, his boss and the owner of the club, I'm sorry about him,” Lucas said.
“Just keep him in line and to leave my father alone from now on and tell him to stay away from me,” Amy said.
“I will do that, miss,” Lucas said.
“Amy, this is my boyfriend, Matthew and my brothers, Sam and JJ,” Amy said.
“Nice to meet you all, enjoy a drink on me, if you all will excuse me, I have to go deal with the overprotective little brother of Rachel,” Lucas said. He walked off. Amy hugged her father.
“Let's get you home, Dad,” Amy said.
“I'm fine, honey, let's have a drink,” Jack said.
“And continue our date somewhere else away from my brother,' Rachel said.
“Hey sis,” Kevin said.
“Hey bro, everyone, this is Kevin, my youngest brother and the much nicer and not so overprotective one,” Rachel said.
“I'm Jack, Rachel's date,” Jack said.
“I'm his oldest child, Sam, this is my sister, Amy, and our baby brother, JJ, and Amy's boyfriend, Matthew,” Sam said.
“Nice to meet you all, so Greg was being overprotective again,” Kevin said.
“Yep,” Rachel said.
“Where is he?” Kevin asked.
“Office with Lucas,” Rachel said.
“Then it's being handled,” Kevin said.
“Anyways Jack and I were about to go continue our date,” Rachel said.
“All right sis, have a good time,” Kevin said. Rachel hugged him and Jack hugged Amy and they left. Sam and JJ talked with Kevin. Amy stood in Matthew's arms and joined in the conversation. She felt eyes on her and she looked around and saw Lucas leaning against the doorframe of a room watching her. She looked away and said bye to her brothers and she and Matthew left and they went home. She showered and got dressed in her pjs while he showered and he came out dressed in his boxer briefs. He got into bed and after a little makeout session, they went to sleep in each other's arms.

Chapter 3

The next day, Amy was at the agency doing some routine photos of the models. She was taking pics of her two best friends in outfits by the fashion designer they work with for fashion shows.
“I love these clothes,” Ashley said.
“Jack said we get to keep them, that's what Frank told him,” Jamie said.
“You look great, girls,” Amy said.
“Thanks Amy,” Ashley said.
“My brother is coming to meet me here so we can go to lunch, he's bringing Hank,” Jamie said.
“You know Hank wants me, he just won't admit it,” Ashley said.
“He thinks you don't want him,” Jamie said.
“That's far from the truth,” Ashley said.
“So confess how you feel then,” Amy said.
“You know what, I will do that,” Ashley said.
“Sis,” Nick said.
“Ladies,” Hank said.
“Hey bro,” Jamie said.
“Hank,” Ashley said.
“Ashley,” Hank said.
“Guys, this is Amy, she's Jack's daughter and the best photographer in the city,” Jamie said.
“You are just saying that because we're best friends,” Amy said.
“That too,” Jamie said.
“Nice to meet you guys, Hank, Ashley wants you like you want her, bye!” Amy said. Amy went out the door and went to her office and took care of her camera.
“Hey baby,” Matthew said.
“Hey, I've missed you,” Amy said.
“I have missed you more,” Matthew said. He pulled her close and kissed her softly and rested his forehead against hers. They heard Jack clear his throat.
“Dad,” Amy said.
“I'm heading out to have lunch with Rachel, I'll be back later,” Jack said.
“Okay Dad, have a good time,” Amy said.
“I will sweetheart,” Jack said. He left. Amy looked at Matthew. He kissed her forehead.
“I'm going to cook dinner for you tonight,” Matthew said.
“Sounds great, I love your cooking,” Amy said.
“I love you,” Matthew said.
“I love you too,” Amy said.
“Amy, we are heading out,” Jamie said.
“Okay, have a good lunch,” Amy said. Amy noticed that Jamie's brother was watching her. Amy looked away and focused on Matthew. They all left. Matthew buried his face in her neck.
“Don't think I noticed that,” Matthew said.
“What,” Amy said.
“He had his eyes on you like Lucas did last night, they both were eyeing you,” Matthew said.
“Hmm, that's too bad for them because I have eyes only for you, I saw them looking at me but I never held eye contact more than a second because I only have eyes for you, babe,” Amy said.
“Baby,” Matthew said. He kissed her softly and held her to him.
“I love you,” Amy said.
“I love you and I can't lose you, my love,” Matthew said.
“I can't lose you,” Amy said.
“Amy?” Frank asked.
“Hey Frank,” Amy said.
“Hey Frank,” Matthew said.
“Your dad around?” Frank asked.
“He went to lunch, what's up?” Amy asked.
“I'm looking at doing a shoot on location in Miami, my next clothing line,” Frank said.
“Let me guess, swimsuits,” Amy said.
“Beachwear,” Frank said.
“For girls?” Matthew asked.
“For both, Matt, don't think I wouldn't leave you and the guys out, I know Amy here wants to see your body,” Frank said.
“Frank,” Amy said.
“You know you love my body,” Matthew said.
“I love you period,” Amy said.
“Young love,” Frank said.
“When are you going to tell Jamie how you feel about her?” Matthew asked.
“When I get the courage to,” Frank said.
“Frank?” Jamie asked.
“Hey,” Frank said. They saw Jamie and Ashley at the door with Nick and Hank behind them.
“Jamie, tell Frank how you feel about him,” Amy said.
“I have feelings for you, Frank, I wanted to know if you would like to go out on a date,” Jamie said.
“Tonight 7pm okay?” Frank asked.
“That's perfect,” Jamie said.
“My girl the matchmaker,” Matthew said.
“I just want everyone to be happy as I am,” Amy said.
“Excuse me,” Greg said.
“Oh no what the hell are you doing here,” Matthew said.
“My boss would like to meet with her,” Greg said pointing to Amy.
“Oh hell no,” Matthew said.
“Why on earth would he want to meet with me and why does he think I would want to meet with him,” Amy said.
“I also believe she asked him to keep you away from her after how you acted last night,” Matthew said.
“What did he do,” Nick said.
“Told her she should talk to him with respect, after he went all overprotective on her father because he was on a date with this jerk's sister,” Matthew said.
“You should leave, Greg, tell your boss she isn't interested,” Hank said. Greg went out the door. Amy looked at Hank.
“You know that jerk?” Amy asked.
“Yeah, his boss is the mafia king,” Nick said.
“Lucas is mafia,” Amy said.
“I'm the leader of the Bad to the Bone MC,” Nick said.
“So you are a biker gang,” Amy said.
“Yep,” Hank said.
“We should get going,” Nick said. He and Hank left. Amy sat down. Matthew knelt down in front of her.
“Baby?” Matthew asked.
“What does a mafia king want with me,” Amy said.
“I don't know but he won't get you,” Matthew said.
“What's going on?” Jack asked.
“Everything okay?” Rachel asked.
“Your brother was here, with a message that his boss wants to meet with Amy,” Matthew said.
“I'll go talk to him,” Rachel said. She kissed Jack and left. Jack came over and sat down with her. She rested her head on his shoulder.

Chapter 4

The next day, Amy walked into her office and saw the whole room filled with flowers. She stood there looking at them. Matthew came in behind her.
“Whoa,” Matthew said.
“Babe, did you do this, it's amazing,” Amy said.
“Baby, I wish I did,” Matthew said.
“Oh god,” Amy said. She checked the card and groaned.
“Lucas,” Amy said.
“Why is he sending you flowers?” Matthew asked.
“Who knows, probably to get me to meet with him since I wouldn't,” Amy said.
“Wow,” Jamie said.
“Go overboard here, Matt?” Ashley asked.
“It wasn't me, Lucas sent them,” Matthew said.
“What,” Jamie said.
“Why is he sending an unavailable woman flowers,” Ashley said.
“Wow,” Rachel said.
“Rachel, get ahold of your brother to tell his boss, tell him to tell his boss that this is uncalled for, I'm not interested period in meeting with him,” Amy said.
“Okay,” Rachel said. She went to call her brother. The girls began moving the flowers out of the office and into the photography studio.
“Greg is telling him now,” Rachel said.
“He knows I have a boyfriend, what could he possibly want with me,” Amy said.
“Amy?” Rachel asked.
“What,” Amy said.
“Greg told me that Lucas is looking for a wife,” Rachel said.
“And let me guess, he wants my girl,” Matthew said.
“I assume so,” Rachel said.
“He is not getting me, I am very taken,” Amy said.
“I told Greg that, he's telling Lucas,” Rachel said.
“Um..” Jamie said.
“What,” Amy said.
“My brother kind of has a thing for you as well, he was asking me how serious you two were,” Jamie said.
“Tell him we are very serious,” Matthew said.
“Okay Jamie, tell your brother that I'm very taken, that I love my boyfriend,” Amy said.
“I'm not giving her up for anything in the world,” Matthew said.
“I've told him that, he said nothing lasts forever,” Jamie said.
“I can't believe this,” Amy said.
“Call them both here now,” Matthew said.
“Matt,” Amy said.
“No, we need to end this crap right now, they know you and I are together, they need to know their place,” Matthew said. Rachel made a call to Greg while Jamie called her brother. An hour later, Amy and Matthew were sitting in her father's office waiting. Lucas comes in. He smiled and sits down. Nick comes in and sees Lucas and sits down.
“Okay, I asked for both of you here because it seems you two have grown an attraction towards me, I would like that to stop, I have a boyfriend and he is sitting right here next to me, I love him and I have no intention of breaking up with him anytime soon, it may never end, we could get married, but the both of you need to back off and leave me alone, no more flowers or asking your sister about me, I am not available, I'm taken,” Amy said.
“Yes you are taken, by me,” Lucas said.
“She's my girlfriend, not yours,” Matthew said.
“You are right about that, she's not my girlfriend, but she's not yours either, she's my wife,” Lucas said.
“I most certainly am not!” Amy said.
“Yes you are, Amy, I just got the papers this morning, it was done weeks ago, I promise you I knew nothing about it,” Lucas said.
“Yeah right,” Amy said.
“How is this possible?” Matthew asked.
“It's what the mafia families do, they set up marriages to women who can take care of themselves and are a strong queen,” Nick said.
“I can't believe this, this can't be legal,” Matthew said.
“I'm sorry but it is, I had my lawyer look it over,” Lucas said.
` “I will never be your wife,” Amy said.
“You are, Amy,” Lucas said.
“Get it annulled,” Matthew said.
“Not a good idea in the mafia world,” Nick said.
“I can't let her go, I love her,” Matthew said.
“There is no choice here, she is to come with me as my wife, or she and her loved ones lose everything,” Lucas said.
“What,” Amy said.
“If you choose to stay with how your life is now, your father will lose this agency, Matthew will lose his job and the condo, your brothers will lose their jobs and possessions,” Lucas said.
“Oh god,” Amy said.
“You can't be serious, this can't be real, you are just saying that to get her for yourself,” Matthew said.
“I know Lucas, he doesn't lie,” Nick said.
“What's going on here,” Jack said.
“Dad!” Amy said. She got up and ran into his arms. She cried as he held her.
“Sweetheart what is it?” Jack asked. She told him everything. Jack looked at her and looked at Lucas.
“It's come to this,” Jack said.
“Dad?” Amy asked.
“Honey, it's all true, I never told you the truth about my past, my family was mafia,” Jack said
“What,” Amy said.
“What,” Matthew said.
“We formed an alliance with Lucas's parents, I wanted out of the mafia so we combined families, we set up a contract for a certain date to finalize the union,” Jack said.
“Oh no please no,” Amy said.
“I'm sorry, sweetheart, it's all real, you are his wife, the date was today,” Jack said.
“Oh god no,” Matthew said.
“Dad!” Amy said.
“You are Mrs. Lucas Reigns,” Jack said.

Chapter 5

Amy sat there staring at the desk in front of her. Her father sat beside her.
“Sweetheart, I'm sorry, I just wanted to do what was best for our family, I didn't want that life for you or your brothers,” Jack said.
“But now I'm married into that life, you married me off!” Amy said.
“Being the daughter of a mafia king is worse than being the wife of one, everyone knows to leave the wives alone but children are a different story,” Jack said.
“Rival mafia leaders kidnap the daughters and do unspeakable things to them,” Nick said.
“So what am I supposed to do now, go play wife to him and leave the man I truly love,” Amy said.
“There has to be another way, I love her, I can't lose her,” Matthew said.
“I wish there was, but Lucas is an only child,” Jack said.
“So if he had a sister, you would have married off Sam or JJ,” Amy said.
“Honey,” Jack said.
“What's going on?” JJ asked.
“Dad?” Sam asked.
“Tell them, Dad,” Amy said. Jack told her brothers everything. They looked at him.
“Dad,” Sam said.
“Why did you do this,” JJ said
“I had to do what was right for the family,” Jack said.
“By marrying our sister off,” JJ said.
“This is so wrong,” Sam said.
“Say goodbye to everyone, Amy, we are leaving,” Lucas said.
“I'm not going anywhere with you!” Amy said.
“You have no choice, wife,” Lucas said.
“There is always a choice!” Amy said. She grabbed Matthew's hand and they ran out the door and ran out to his car and drove off. They left the city and turned off locations on their phones before they left the city. They pulled into a town that was four hours away and checked into a bed and breakfast under a fake name and paid cash. They went to their room and locked the door and he pulled her into his arms as she cried.
“God baby I love you so much!” Matthew said.
“I love you too, I can't let you go!” Amy said.
“I can't let you go either, we rest now and we leave tomorrow, we have to keep moving,” Matthew said.
“I hate this but what else can be done, I want you and only you,” Amy said.
“I can't lose you, you are everything to me,” Matthew said. Her phone rang and she turned it off. He turned his off too.
“Please hold me,” Amy said. They laid on the bed and he held her in his arms. She rested her head on his chest and they fell asleep. Three weeks later, they ended up on the other side of the country. Using fake names and cash only for everything, they remained hidden from everyone. They never turned on their phones and instead bought untraceable ones and she sent a quick message to Sam and JJ that she was okay. They replied telling her that they were glad and they were working on getting their father to take back the mafia title and end the marriage between her and Lucas.
“Lucas has been looking for you guys,” JJ said.
“Why can't he just give up and see that I don't want to be with him,” Amy said.
“Rachel told us that once Lucas sees something he wants, he stops at nothing to get it,” JJ said.
“So he wants me and won't stop until he has me, what if I'm pregnant with Matt's baby, will that stop him,” Amy said.
“Are you?” JJ asked.
“I could be, I ran out of pills and I can't go get more,” Amy said.
“I'll find out, call me back in an hour,” JJ said.
“Love you bro,” Amy said.
“Love you sis,” JJ said. Amy hung up and looked at Matthew.
“Shall we get you pregnant?” Matthew asked.
“I could be already, you know,” Amy said. She called JJ back an hour later.
“I talked to Lucas,” JJ said.
“And?” Amy asked.
“He said that you being pregnant with Matt's baby won't mater, he will raise the baby as his,” JJ said.
“Unbelievable,” Amy said.
“I'm sorry sis, we are trying to get you out of this,” JJ said.
“I'll call tomorrow,” Amy said.
“Okay sis,” JJ said. She hung up and covered her face with her hands.
“Baby?” Matthew said.
“Having your baby won't change anything, he said he would raise it as his own,” Amy said.
“I can't believe this, why is this guy so obsessed with someone he barely knows,” Matthew said.
“Because I'm a possession, he thinks he owns me,” Amy said.
“No one owns you,” Matthew said. They held each other. The door burst open and Lucas stood there glaring at them.
“Found you!” Lucas said.
Chapter 6

Three days later, Amy sat there in the bedroom sitting by the window staring out at the sky. When Lucas found her, he knocked Matthew out and tied her up and carried her out the door and brought her back to his estate and locked her in the bedroom. She tried to escape but there was no way out. She was a prisoner of her husband. He assured her that Matthew was okay and that he's returned home. He allowed JJ and Sam to visit her but under the watchful eye of a guard. She sat there with tears running down her cheeks as she heard the door being unlocked. She wiped her face and just stared out the window.
“Good morning dear wife,” Lucas said She didn't say anything.
“Not speaking I see, I brought you some food,” Lucas said. She still didn't speak.
“I know you are upset and all that, you didn't give me much choice, I know you didn't have a choice in this marriage and to tell you the truth, neither did I,” Lucas said.
“Then why do this,” Amy said.
“Because I'm attracted to you, they showed me a picture of you and I fell for you,” Lucas said.
“I'm in love with Matthew,” Amy said.
“I know you are, but you are my wife, you have to let him go, Amy, for your safety and for his,” Lucas said.
“Are you threatening him?” Amy asked.
“No, I wouldn't do that, I couldn't do that to you,” Lucas said.
“Then what,” Amy said.
“My rivals, they believe in true love and honor, if they find out that my wife is in love with another man, both of your lives would be at risk,” Lucas said.
“Oh god,” Amy said.
“I can't lie to you, Amy, I swear to you,” Lucas said.
“So I have to let him go and never talk or see him again,” Amy said.
“Amy, I'm not going to take you away from your job, you will still see him, just can't be his girl anymore,” Lucas said.
“Oh god,” Amy said.
“I'm sorry,” Lucas said.
Three days later, she arrived at the agency where she was met by her brothers and Matthew. They sat down and she explained everything. Matthew took her hands in his.
“Amy, I want to be with you more than anything, but if our safety is at risk, we should do what he says,” Matthew said.
“I know, if anything happened to you, it would kill me,” Amy said.
“We will always be friends, I can't lose you from my life,” Matthew said.
“I will always love you,” Amy said.
“And I you,” Matthew said
“I'm sorry it has to be this way,” Amy said.
“I know, Amy, it's okay,” Matthew said.
“I'll have to come pack my things from the condo,” Amy said.
“Sis, me and Sam already started doing that, we knew you would have to be with Lucas,” JJ said.
“Hey everyone,” Frank said.
“Hey Frank,” Amy said.
“Hey Frank,” Matthew said.
“Hey Frank,” Sam said.
“Hey Frank,” JJ said.
“How's things going with Jamie?” Amy asked.
“Amazing, we are officially a couple,” Jamie said.
“That's great,” Amy said.
“Amy, how you holding up?” Jamie asked.
“I'm hanging in there,” Amy said.
“We had to end our relationship as boyfriend and girlfriend and be friends,” Matthew said.
“Oh?” Jamie said.
“It's a long story,” Amy said.
“I believe I know why, Nick told me about mafia families and how they want to make sure that the wives stay true to their husbands,” Jamie said.
“Yeah, I have to be the doting wife to Lucas,” Amy said.
“Miss Amy, time to go,” Greg said.
“Hold up, you have to deal with him?” Matthew asked.
“Unfortunately,” Amy said.
“I know my place, she's my boss now as well,” Greg said.
“One step out of line and he's fired,” Amy said.
“And that's what Lucas told me as well,” Greg said.
“So she can't work here anymore?” JJ asked.
“Lucas said he doesn't want to take me away from my job so I came here to work,” Amy said.
“Let me call him,” Greg said. He went out the door. Amy sat there.
“I don't like that guy,” Matthew said.
“Me either but I have to put up with him,” Amy said.
“Okay he agrees with you, he will pick you up at five,” Greg said.
“Fine,” Amy said.
“Matthew, I need you and JJ to come look at the swim trunks for the shoot in Miami,” Frank said. They left the room. Amy got out her camera and began cleaning it.
“You okay?” Jamie asked.
“Not really no,” Amy said.
“I'm here for you,” Jamie said.
“Thanks Jamie,” Amy said. Jamie hugged her and went out the door. Amy continued cleaning her camera equipment.
Chapter 7

Amy walked out of the building and she saw him standing there by his car.
“Hey,” Lucas said.
“Hi,” Amy said. He opened the door for her and she got in and he got in and headed to the house.
“Greg met Sam at the condo to bring your stuff over, it's in the bedroom,” Lucas said.
“Bedroom?” Amy asked.
“Ours,” Lucas said.
“We have to share?” Amy asked.
“Married,” Lucas said.
“Not by choice,” Amy said.
“You are my wife, we have to act like it,” Lucas said.
“I'm not sleeping with you,” Amy said.
“Amy,” Lucas said.
“I'm not having sex with you,” Amy said.
“Oh you will,” Lucas said.
“You can't force me,” Amy said.
“I won't have to,” Lucas said.
“Look, I didn't want this marriage but I had no say in it, but I will have a say in this, I will not have sex with you,” Amy said.
“If you say so,” Lucas said.
“This marriage is in name only and appearances but in your house, it's not real,” Amy said.
“Oh it's real, sweetheart, it is very real, you will realize it soon enough,” Lucas said. They arrived at the house and got out and went inside.
“Amy,” Lucas said.
“What!” Amy said. She turned and faced him and he pressed her against the door and looked at her. He crushed his mouth to hers. She tried to push him away but he wouldn't move.
“Not out here, Amy, someone could be watching,” Lucas said. He kissed her again and she let him. She relaxed against him and began kissing him back. They moved into the house and closed the door and she pulled away.
“Now I can,” Amy said. She went upstairs and found her stuff and began going through it all.
“Amy,” Lucas said.
“Not now,” Amy said.
“We need to talk about it,” Lucas said.
“I don't want to,” Amy said.
“So you want to deny that you felt something in that kiss,” Lucas said.
“It was just a kiss, just for show, I felt nothing,” Amy said.
“Bullshit,” Lucas said.
“You don't know how I feel, to be able to kiss you back, I had to pretend you were Matthew, my heart is still with him, it's hard for me to think about moving on, okay,” Amy said.
“We need to get along to be able to pass as a happy married couple,” Lucas said.
“Oh don't worry, I took acting classes in high school,” Amy said.
“They will know if it's acting or not,” Lucas said.
“I can't fall in love with someone just by snapping my fingers, it takes time, it took me three months before I realized that Matthew and I were in love,” Amy said.
“We don't have that long,” Lucas said.
“Well it's too fucking bad because I didn't ask to be married to you, my life was perfectly fine before you came along,” Amy said.
“Amy, when I first saw you, I thought you were the most beautiful woman I have ever seen, I wanted you to be mine, when I found out we were married, it was like a dream come true for me, I am sorry how things came to be, but we have to deal with what has happened, we have to be happily married and it can't be an act,” Lucas said.
“So I'm supposed to forget about any feelings I have for Matthew,” Amy said.
“I'm not asking you to forget him, I'm asking you to give me a chance,” Lucas said. She looked at him and looked at her hands. She slowly nodded.

Chapter 8

Three weeks later, Amy and Lucas grew closer as a married couple. She was in the bedroom packing a bag. Lucas came in and saw her.
“What are you doing?” Lucas asked.
“Packing a bag for my trip,” Amy said.
“What trip?” Lucas asked.
“I told you, photoshoot in Miami, for work,” Amy said.
“Oh right, I'm going with you then,” Lucas said.
“What, why?!” Amy said.
“Because I want to be with my wife,” Lucas said.
“I'm going for work, not fun,” Amy said.
“I know that,” Lucas said.
“You have to trust me in this marriage,” Amy said.
“I do,” Lucas said.
“Or is because of Matthew being there, he's a model for the agency, it's his job to be there,” Amy said.
“Amy,” Lucas said.
“He knows what to do and what not to do, he knows we can only be friends,” Amy said.
“I just want to go with you okay,” Lucas said.
“Why, so you can rub it in his face that we are married, he fucking knows that,” Amy said.
“What is wrong with you?!” Lucas said.
“You don't trust me to go without you,” Amy said.
“Maybe I want to spend time with you, to see you in your environment, to see how you work, maybe I just want to watch you work and do the job you love,” Lucas said.
“You know what, fine, do whatever you want,” Amy said. She finished packing and went out the door. He packed a bag and followed her and they went to the airport where her father, brothers, and the models were.
“Hi sweetheart,” Jack said.
“Hey Dad, he insisted on coming,” Amy said.
“What's going on,” Matthew said.
“I'm coming with you guys,” Lucas said.
“You don't trust us together, do you,” Matthew said.
“Actually I do, I just wanted to come along and watch her in action on location,” Lucas said. They heard motorcycles and saw several of them pull up.
“Nick, what are you doing here,” Jamie said.
“I came to get something I want,” Nick said.
“What is that?” Jamie said.
“This,” Nick said. He grabs Amy and pulls her to him. She pushes against him.
“Let her go, man,” Matthew said.
“Nick, I would let her go if I were you,” Lucas said.
“Maybe that's what you should do, let her go from the marriage so she can be free to be with who she wants,” Nick said.
“And you are what she wants?” Matthew asked.
“I want her to be mine so it's only a matter of time,” Nick said.
“Let me go, Nick, now!” Amy said.
“Bro please if you care about me at all, let her go,” Jamie said.
“Sis, you want her to be with him?” Nick asked.
“It's not our choice, it's the way it is, but taking her by force like this isn't the right way,” Jamie said.
“I thought you said he took her by force when he found her and her ex after they ran away,” Nick said.
“No, that was him taking his wife home,” Jamie said.
“Let my daughter go now,” Jack said.
“Hank baby please,” Ashley said.
“Nick, let her go,” Hank said.
“Hank,” Nick said.
“I'm sorry, bro, but I'm not losing my girl because of this,” Hank said. Nick sighed and let Amy go and she flew into her husband's arms.
“This isn't over,” Nick said.
“Boss, do we really want to go against the mafia, look at what happened after your father did,” Todd said.
“Shit!” Nick said. They got on their bikes and drove off. Lucas held Amy close.
“They are gone, Amy,” Lucas said.
“Did you go against his father?” Amy asked.
“No, it was another mafia family,” Jamie said.
“We actually have a treaty with his MC,” Lucas said.
“I think he just broke it, Lucas,” Jamie said.
“I'm letting it slide this time, but he doesn't get another chance, tell that to your brother, Jamie,” Lucas said
“I will,” Jamie said. They all got on the plane that Jack had chartered and Lucas helped Amy to her seat and got her buckled in. He kissed her forehead and sat down and buckled in.
“You okay, beautiful?” Lucas asked.
“I'm okay,” Amy said.
“I won't let anything happen to you, I promise,” Lucas said. She nods and rested her head against the head rest. Matthew sat next to her.
“Okay if I sit here?” Matthew asked.
“It's fine,” Lucas said.
“I could use a friend,” Amy said.
“Best friend for life,” Matthew said.
“For life, buddy,” Amy said. They smiled and sat back as the plane took off.

Chapter 9

They arrived in Miami and checked into the hotel and Lucas and Amy went to their suite.
“You okay beautiful?” Lucas asked.
“Yeah, I'm fine,” Amy said.
“You sure?” Lucas asked.
“Why didn't you pull your gun?” Amy asked.
“I wanted to keep it peaceful with everyone around,” Lucas said.
“Are you going to let me continue being friends with Ashley and Jamie knowing who they are,” Amy said.
“They are your best friends, and they were trying to stop him as well, Ashley pleading with Hank and Jamie pleading with her brother, they knew it was wrong,” Lucas said.
“Oh,” Amy said.
“I'm your husband, not your boss, I can't force you to stop being friends with them,” Lucas said.
“Thank you,” Amy said. They went to eat dinner with her dad and brothers. They were eating when she looked up and saw someone come in and immediately grabbed Lucas's arm.
“Amy?” Lucas asked.
“He's here,” Amy said.
“Who?” Lucas asked.
“Nick, he followed us down here,” Amy said.
“Crap,” Lucas said.
“Let's go bro,” JJ said. Sam and JJ got up and went over to Nick who was there with Hank.
“I can't believe this,” Amy said.
“I'll go with them,” Lucas said.
“No, just stay with me, Dad can you go?” Amy asked.
“Yes sweetheart,” Jack said. He got up and went over to them. Amy held onto Lucas's hand.
“It'll be okay,” Lucas said.
“Just don't leave my side,” Amy said.
“I won't,” Lucas said. She saw Nick and Hank leave and her father and brothers come sit down.
“They came looking for Ashley and Jamie,” Jack said.
“Jamie told him that if he didn't leave you alone, she would disown him and given that she's his only sister and blood family, he doesn't want that to happen and Hank told him that Ashley would leave him if he didn't convince Nick to leave you alone, Hank is so in love with Ashley that he doesn't want that to happen so he promised to leave you be,” JJ said.
“Good,” Amy said.
“We got your back, sis,” Sam said.
“Hey guys, I made it,” Rachel said.
“Hi Rachel,” Amy said.
“Hi gorgeous,” Jack said.
“Hey boss,” Greg said.
“Greg, I told you to stay back and look after everything,” Lucas said.
“Kevin is handling it along with the guys,” Greg said.
“Greg, you are second in command,” Lucas said.
“And Kevin is third and capable,” Lucas said.
“Greg, you can go back, it's fine, I'll be okay with Jack and his boys,” Rachel said.
“All right, I thought I saw Nick and Hank here,” Greg said.
“Yeah looking for Jamie and Ashley,” Lucas said.
“Should I stay and keep an eye on them after what happened at the airport?” Greg asked.
“My boys and I took care of it, they got threatened by Ashley and Jamie so they will stay away,” Jack said.
“Okay call if you need me,” Greg said.
“Okay man,” Lucas said. Greg left and Amy and Lucas went to their suite. She took a shower and put on a robe and sat down brushing her hair while Lucas showered. He came out and she looked at him.

Chapter 10

Amy sat there looking at Lucas who had come out of the shower. He was dressed in a pair of boxers. He looked at her.
“What's on your mind beautiful?” Lucas asked.
“I can't stand it anymore,” Amy said. She got up and came over to him and threw himself in his arms kissing him. He deepened the kiss and held her against his body.
“Amy?” Lucas asked.
“Make love to me, Lucas,” Amy said.
“Are you sure?” Lucas asked.
“Yes please make me yours,” Amy said. He kissed her deeply as he untied her robe and pushed it off her body and she stood there naked and he gazed at her body. He ran his hands over her body and lifted her up and laid her on the bed and stood at the end and pushed his boxers down and crawled up on top of her and laid on top of her. He kissed her deeply and moved to her neck and to her chest. He kissed her all over her body and moved back up and kissed her deeply. He laid between her legs and looked into her eyes.
“You clean?” Lucas asked.
“Yes, you?” Amy asked.
“Yes, pill?” Lucas said.
“I got the shot, I'm due to go for another next week,” Amy said.
“There is no going back after this,” Lucas said.
“I'm not a virgin you know,” Amy said.
“I know that, but once we do this, you are mine completely, only mine,” Lucas said.
“Lucas please make me yours completely,” Amy said. He slid inside her body. She wrapped her legs around his waist and moved with him as he went slow and gently. She ran her hands up and down his back as he moved within her.
“Oh god, Amy, you feel so god, so right, perfect fit,” Lucas said.
“Lucas, oh god please,” Amy said.
“Yes baby?” Lucas asked.
“Faster, harder! Make me yours!” Amy said. He sat up and held her hips as he went faster and harder. He pounded her wetness as she cried out as she came around him. He continued until he came filling her with his warm release and collapsed on top of her burying his face in her neck. She held him to her as they tried to catch their breaths.
“You're mine, baby,” Lucas said.
“I'm yours,” Amy said. He rolled off of her and kissed her softly before getting up and going to the bathroom and came back with a rag and cleaned her up and himself before getting into bed and and pulling her close. They kissed softly before going to sleep in each other's arms. The next morning she woke up laying on his chest with his arms around her. She looked up at him and saw him awake watching her.
“Morning beautiful,” Lucas said.
“Morning,” Amy said. He kissed her forehead and held her close to him. She saw the time and sat up.
“Crap, I'm going to be late for the shoot!” Amy said. She got up and got dressed. He got up and dressed and came over and pulled her into his arms.
“You look amazing,” Lucas said.
“Thank you, let's go,” Amy said. She got her bag and they headed out and went to the location of the shoot and she got her equipment set up. Frank arrived with Jack and her brothers.
“Hey Amy, ready for this,” Frank said.
“Yep,” Amy said.
“I love working with you guys,” Frank said.
“Same here, Frank, I know Jamie does the most,” Amy said.
“Thank you for pushing us together, matchmaker,” Frank said.
“Hey you guys have been dancing around each other, somebody had to make it happen,” Amy said.
“Can't thank you enough, it's been amazing, do you think your husband would kill me if I hugged you,” Frank said.
“I'll deal with him,” Amy said. Frank smiled and they hugged. She pulled back and went back to cleaning her camera.
“Hey Amy,” Matthew said.
“Hey Matt, ready for this,” Amy said.
“Yep,” Matthew said.
“What's up,” Amy said.
“I wanted to tell you that I have a date tonight with Stacy,” Matthew said.
“Okay?” Amy said.
“I didn't want you to be shocked or anything,” Matthew said.
“It's fine, she's a nice girl, if she hurts you, I'll kick her ass,” Amy said.
“I have no doubt about that,” Matthew said.
“Hey guys,” Stacy said.
“Hey Stacy,” Amy said.
“Hey Stacy, I was just telling her about our date tonight,” Matthew said.
“It's okay right?” Stacy asked.
“Why wouldn't it be?” Amy asked.
“You two used to be together,” Stacy said.
“And we aren't anymore, we are best friends now,” Amy said.
“I just didn't want there to be an issue,” Stacy said.
“There wont' be if you promise that you won't hurt him and that you are okay with him being friends with me,” Amy said.
“I have no problems with that whatsoever, you are great to work with and a great person, I was hoping we could be friends too,” Stacy said.
“I thought we were, Stacy, you've worked at the agency, I thought of all you girls as friends,” Amy said.
“I meant up there where Ashley and Jamie are,” Stacy said.
“Oh yeah, we can see how things go and see what happens with you two,” Amy said.
“Okay then I better go get ready,” Stacy said.
“Me too,” Matthew said. They went to get ready. She looked up and saw Lucas sitting there watching her. He was gazing at her. She smiled at him and he winked at her. He got up and came over and sat beside her and pressed a kiss to her neck.
“I wish I could take you back to the room and back to bed and not move for days, you have no idea how much I want you right now,” Lucas said.
“After this is over, we will go back and have room service and not move until morning,” Amy said.
“Sounds like a plan, baby,” Lucas said. He kissed her temple and she got her camera ready as the shoot began. She went to work with Lucas watching her every move.

Chapter 11

The shoot wrapped up for the day and everyone headed their separate ways. Amy packed up her camera and Lucas wrapped his arms around her.
“Ready baby?” Lucas asked.
“Yes let's go,” Amy said. They went back to the hotel and went to their suite. The door closed and she put her bag down and turned and was pushed against the wall and lips on her neck. They removed each other's clothes and he took her up against the wall. They moved over to the couch where he took her again. They ordered room service. She was on her hands and knees on the bed as he took her from behind when there was a knock at the door. He groaned and pulled out and she put on a robe and looked out. She opened the door and pulled the room service cart in and closed the door and he pulled her back on the bed after she removed her rob and had her back on her hands and knees taking her from behind. He held her hips and he went fast and hard. He came releasing inside her and sat back pulling her back with him staying inside her.
“Amy, I love you,” Lucas said.
“Oh Lucas,” Amy said.
“It's okay if you aren't ready yet, but I do love you,” Lucas said. He ran his hands up and down her body. She turned her head and he captured her mouth with his in a deep kiss. He cupped her breasts with his hands and massaged them.
“I love you too,” Amy said.
“Oh baby,” Lucas said. She felt him hard inside her and he began moving with her slowly.
“Lucas,” Amy said.
“I can't get enough of you,” Lucas said. His hands ran down to her stomach and rubbed it.
“You want a baby don't you,” Amy said.
“Someday I do, we don't have to hurry, when we are ready, I want our baby growing inside you,” Lucas said.
“Maybe I will skip the appointment next week,” Amy said.
“Amy, you sure you are ready, I said no hurry,” Lucas said.
“Maybe I'm ready, see what you did to me, few weeks ago I despised you because of how this whole marriage came to be and now I'm here with you, making love and wanting babies,” Amy said.
“I love you and I want forever with you,” Lucas said. He began moving against her as he held her hips. She reached back and held onto him as she cried out coming around him and he came inside her filling her with his warm release.
“Oh god, Lucas, I love you,” Amy said.
“I love you, my wife, my love, my forever,” Lucas said.
“So are we going to start trying for a baby after next week?” Amy asked.
“Cancel your appointment, we have some baby making to do, baby, I'm putting a baby inside you,” Lucas said. He kissed her again before moving her on to the bed and getting on top of her.
“Until then we will be practicing,” Lucas said.
“Take me my king,” Amy said.
“As you wish my queen,” Lucas said. He began making love to her again and came together and got up and ate the food. They put the cart out in the hall and put the do not disturb sign up and closed the door and he pulled her close and made love to her all over the suite. They finally collapsed on the bed after he made love to her on the counter in the bathroom. He kissed her and they fell asleep holding each other only to wake up in the middle of the night and make love a few more times before finally falling asleep.
The next day, Amy got up and showered and got dressed and got her bag when arms wrapped around her from behind.
“Sneaking out on me?” Lucas asked.
“I was letting you sleep,” Amy said.
“I'm fine getting up when you do,” Lucas said.
“All right, are you ready?” Amy asked.
“Ready for you baby,” Lucas said kissing her neck.
“Need to get going,” Amy said moaning. He ran his hands under her shirt and cupped her breasts. Her head fell back against him. He smiled and removed her clothes and bent her over the arm of the couch and slid inside her body and began moving fast and hard. They came together. They got dressed and headed out the door and went to the location of the shoot and Amy got her camera ready. Lucas sat down and watched her. Everyone showed up and went to get ready. Ashley and Jamie came over to them.
“Amy,” Jamie said.
“What's up,” Amy said.
“How are you guys doing,” Ashley said.
“Good,” Amy said.
“So have you guys made things official?” Jamie asked.
“Yes we have, what's going on girls?” Amy asked.
“I'm trying to find out for sure so I have something to tell my stupid ass brother so he will leave you alone for good,” Jamie said.
“Tell your brother that he will never have me because I love my husband and I'm staying with him,” Amy said.
“Love?” Ashley asked.
“Yes love, we will be trying for a baby soon,” Amy said.
“That will back him off for sure,” Jamie said.
“Good because I don't really want to unnecessarily break the treaty,” Lucas said.
“We better get ready Ash,” Jamie said.
“Yep,” Ashley said. They went to get ready. Lucas felt his phone go off and he went to take it. Amy continued getting her camera ready. She heard a noise and a cloth covered her mouth and she struggled against the person and everything went black.

Chapter 12

Amy opened her eyes and looked around and saw she was lying on a bed in a room that was dark. She tried to move and saw she was tied up to a bed. She looked down and saw she was still clothed. She heard footsteps and the door opened and she looked at the doorway and she glared at the person standing there.
“Oh good, you're awake,” Nick said.
“Have you gone insane!” Amy said.
“No, I had to do it, it was the only way I could think of,” Nick said.
“Let me go now!” Amy said.
“I can't do that,” Nick said.
“Why are you doing this?!” Amy said.
“Because I want you to be mine,” Nick said.
“I will never be yours!” Amy said.
“In time you will,” Nick said.
“Then you will be waiting forever because it will never be in this lifetime,” Amy said.
“You sure fell for your husband when you were so against the marriage,” Nick said.
“Because I didn't have much choice to be married to him, now I know how I feel, I don't feel anything for you, just disgust,” Amy said. He moved over and got on the bed with her and turned her face towards him.
“I can change that,” Nick said. He crushed his mouth to hers and kissed her but she refused to kiss him back. She bit his lip hard. He jerked back and glared at her.
“Don't you fucking do that again!” Amy said. They heard commotion and the door burst open and Ashley and Jamie stood there.
“NICK!” Jamie yelled. She came at him and started beating him while Ashley untied Amy. Hank came in and picked Amy up and carried her out the door.
“Hank!” Nick said.
“Sorry boss but I can't stand by and do nothing, I'm not losing Ashley over this obsession of yours,” Hank said.
“I hate you! I told you what would happen if you kept after her!” Jamie said.
“Jamie please,” Nick said.
“I'm done with you!” You are nothing to me!” Jamie said.
“Let's go Jamie,” Ashley said.
“Sis please!” Nick said.
“I'm not your sister anymore!” Jamie said. She walked out the door with Ashley, Hank, and Amy and they went to the hotel. Hank carried her into the hotel and saw Lucas with Jack, Rachel, Sam, and JJ.
“Lucas,” Hank said. Lucas saw them and ran over and took Amy in his arms.
“Hank?” Lucas asked.
“I wasn't a part of it, I swear, I found out from Todd what he did, Nick acted alone,” Hank said.
“Hank called Ashley while we were out shopping and we hightailed it over there,” Jamie said.
“He had her tied to the bed in the room and he was on it with her, his lip was bleeding so she did something to it,” Ashley said.
“Lucas?” Amy asked.
“Hey yeah it's me, baby, I'm here,” Lucas said. She smiled and snuggled into his arms and buried her face in his neck.
“I could kill your brother,” Lucas said.
“I don't care anymore, he's not my brother anymore, not after this,” Jamie said.
“Hank, take me and my boys to him, it's time for another chat with him,” Jack said. Hank nodded and they left. Lucas looked at Jamie and Ashley.
“Thank you for bringing her back to me,” Lucas said.
“It's where she belongs,” Jamie said.
“We should have made them leave and go back home,” Ashley said.
“Yes we should have,” Jamie said.
“I better get her up to the room,” Lucas said. He took her up to the suite and stripped her clothes off and got his off and got them in the shower. She woke up in the shower and looked up at him.
“Never let me go,” Amy said.
“Never baby, I'm never letting you go,” Lucas said. She held onto him as he held her close. He got them out of the shower and dried them off and carried her out to bed and got her tucked in and got into bed and pulled her close.
“I love you,” Amy said.
“I love you baby,” Lucas said. She fell asleep in his arms. He laid there holding her as she slept. He got his phone and sent a text to Greg telling him what happened and what needed to be done. A few hours later, there was knocking at the door. They got up and dressed and Lucas opened the door and saw Jamie and Ashley with Hank.
“I heard what you did,” Jamie said.
“What's that?” Lucas asked.
“What?” Amy asked.
“You set the clubhouse on fire,” Ashley said.
“Who said I did it,” Lucas said.
“You mean you didn't?” Jamie asked.
“Not my style,” Lucas said.
“If you did, I would say good job,” Jamie said.
“He deserves anything coming to him,” Ashley said.
“He got on the first flight back once he heard,” Hank said.
“And you stayed?” Lucas asked.
“He stayed for me,” Ashley said.
“Amy, how are you doing?” Jamie asked.
“I'm okay, just a little shaky still,” Amy said.
“Well, you are in good hands here,” Jamie said.
“And why aren't you in Frank's?” Amy asked.
“I will be soon, he's finishing up rearranging the schedule to redo today's shoot since our photographer went missing,” Jamie said.
“Not my fault,” Amy said.
“We know,” Ashley said.
“Your dad has your equipment,” Jamie said.
“Okay good I was wondering what happened to it,” Amy said.
“Hi sweetheart, here you go,” Jack said. He handed her the bag and she hugged him.
“Love you Dad,” Amy said.
“Love you sweetheart, you and the boys are my life,” Jack said. He went back to his room and the girls left and Lucas closed the door and they removed their clothes and got back in bed and held each other as they went to sleep.

Chapter 13

Three days later, they arrived back home and went to the house and she unpacked her bags to wash her clothes and his. She loaded the washer and closed the lid and turned and saw Lucas standing there. He lifted her up on the washer and pulled off her pants and underwear and began eating her out. She came in his mouth. He licked up her release and stood up and pushed off his pants and shirt and pulled her shirt and he pushed himself deep into her body.
“Oh god Lucas!” Amy said.
“You feel so good baby,” Lucas said. He went fast and hard and he came inside her filling her with his warm release and he stood there holding her close.
“I love you!” Amy said.
“I love you baby,” Lucas said. He lifted her up and carried her upstairs to their bedroom and collapsed on the bed and began making love to her again. They came together and they laid there in bed in each other's arms.
“You are wearing me out,” Amy said.
“I just can't get enough of you,” Lucas said. They heard the doorbell ring. They got up and got dressed and went downstairs and she looked out.
“Baby?” Lucas asked.
“It's Dad,” Amy said. He opened the door and saw Jack there.
“Dad?” Amy asked.
“Thank god you're okay,” Jack said.
“Of course I am, why wouldn't I be?” Amy asked.
“What's happened, Jack?” Lucas asked. Jack handed him a note and Lucas read it.
“What is it?” Amy asked.
“Nick thinks I'm behind the fire at his clubhouse, he said either he gets you or your brothers die,” Lucas said.
“Oh god,” Amy said.
“I can't get ahold of them,” Jack said.
“Oh god no,” Amy said.
“He's not getting you,” Lucas said.
“But my brothers!” Amy said.
“We can't give into him, call Jamie and tell her what's going on,” Lucas said.
“She knows and went to talk to him along with Ashley and Hank,” Jack said.
“I can't believe this,” Amy said.
“I'm calling Greg,” Lucas said.
“Lucas,” Amy said.
“I will not let him hurt your brothers or let him have you, I will keep you safe, I promise you, I'm getting your brothers home,” Lucas said. He went to make calls while Amy went into his father's arms.
“Daddy, I'm scared,” Amy said.
“I know, baby, but we have to listen to Lucas, he cares about you and all of us, he will get them back without you having to give yourself to that man,” Jack said.
“He makes me sick, he kissed me when he had me in Miami and I bit his lip hard,” Amy said.
“He deserves much worse,” Jack said.
“Greg said he got a call from Rachel who is also with Jamie, Ashley, and Hank, they got your brothers out and they are headed here, Hank almost beat Nick to death and the other members voted Nick out as President and made Hank president and Todd VP,” Lucas said.
“Good,” Jack said.
“Lucas, he needs to go,” Amy said.
“Baby, what are you saying?” Lucas asked.
“End him,” Amy said.
“She's right, Lucas, he won't stop,” Jack said.
“But the treaty?” Lucas asked.
“The treaty is void since he broke the rules,” Jack said.
“I want to be the one to do it,” Amy said.
“Sweetheart,” Jack said.
“No Dad, I'm his queen, I need to act like it,” Amy said.
“Baby, there is no going back if you do it,” Amy said.
“Amy,” Jamie said. They saw Jamie, Ashley, Hank, Sam, JJ, and Rachel walking up to the house. Amy ran to her brothers and hugged them and cried.
“Thank god you both are okay,” Amy said.
“We're fine, sis,” JJ said.
“He got what he deserved,” Sam said.
“He's dead,” Jamie said.
“What,” Jack said.
“Todd called,” Ashley said.
“Todd couldn't find a pulse, he called the doc and they pronounced him dead, he died because of what I did to him,” Hank said.
“Hank baby,” Ashley said.
“I can't believe he died at my hands,” Hank said.
“He was out of control,” Ashley said.
“I don't blame you, Hank, that man was not my brother,” Nick said.
“I think I know why,” Greg said.
“What is it bro?” Rachel asked.
“He's not the real Nick,” Greg said.
“What?” Jamie asked.
“We found the real Nick, he was tied up in the basement of the clubhouse, the part that didn't get burnt,” Greg said.
“Sis?” Nick asked.
“Oh god Nick!” Jamie said. She ran to him and hugged him tight. Lucas held Amy close to him.

Chapter 14

Amy walked into the house with Lucas behind her. Everyone followed and they gathered in the living room and Nick told them everything.
“So he was your long lost twin brother, jealous of your life and wanted to take it over,” Amy said.
“Yes, Amy, he would come and torture me with what was going on, he talked about you and how much he wanted you, he was obsessed with you, I told him that there was a treaty in place with the mafia and if he did anything to break it, there would be a war that we wouldn't win, he said bring it on because he said you were worth the risk,” Nick said.
“So you aren't obsessed with my sister?” JJ asked.
“No, I know she is Lucas's wife and I respect their marriage, I'm not obsessed or anything, I'm no threat to their marriage, I don't want to break the treaty,” Nick said.
“Oh Nick,” Jamie said. Jamie hugged him. Nick held her to him.
“Love you, sis, I can't lose you,” Nick said.
“Me too, I can't believe we had a brother out there this whole time, if he was raised with us, maybe things would have been different with him,” Jamie said.
“Yeah, I have Todd working on finding out how he got split from us and where he's been and who raised him,” Nick said.
“Greg can help with that,” Lucas said.
“He already is working with Todd, they are sort of together,” Nick said.
“What,” Hank said.
“You didn't know about Todd?” Nick asked.
“He's gay?” Hank asked.
“My brother?” Rachel asked.
“Wow, I knew something was up when I never saw Greg with a woman, I just thought he wasn't interested in hooking up with random girls, that he was waiting for the right one,” Lucas said.
“I guess the right person for him was a man,” Amy said.
“He never told me,” Rachel said.
“Maybe he was afraid you wouldn't accept him,” Jack said.
“Of course I would,” Rachel said.
“You do?” Greg asked.
“Prez,” Todd said.
“Greg, you know you can tell me anything, I love you no matter what,” Rachel said. Greg smiled and hugged her close.
“Todd, what did you find out?” Nick asked. Todd gave him the info and Nick read it and sat down.
“Bro?” Jamie asked. Nick handed her the papers and she read it and sat back. They told everyone what the papers said.
“He was kidnapped from the hospital by a woman who lost her baby and had a breakdown so she stole him from the hospital and disappeared,” Nick said.
“She obviously didn't know he was a twin,” Jamie said.
“Mom and Dad searched for years and never found him but he found us,” Nick said.
“He took over your life, became obsessed with Amy,” Jamie said.
“Todd, Greg, you two a couple?” Nick asked. Todd and Greg held hands and looked at everyone.
“Yes Prez,” Todd said.
“Yes we are in love,” Greg said.
“Are you okay with this?” Todd asked.
“Yes, I want you to be happy and if it's him, then I have no problem with it,” Nick said.
“Boss?” Greg asked.
“No issue here,” Lucas said.
“Boss lady?” Greg asked.
“No issue, just be happy,” Amy said.
“Sis?” Greg asked. She got up and hugged Greg and Todd together.
“I'm happy for you both,” Rachel said.
“I'm happy for you both as well,” Hank said.
“Okay then, we should go and see about getting that clubhouse rebuilt,” Nick said. Everyone left and Lucas locked up and turned and saw Amy gone. He went upstairs and looked around for her.
“Baby?” Lucas asked.
“I'll be right out, strip to your boxers please,” Amy said. He removed his clothes and sat on the bed in his boxers. The bathroom door opened and he looked up and saw her in lingerie.
“Oh god baby,” Lucas said.
“You like?” Amy asked.
“I love,” Lucas said. She walked over to him and he pulled her close and she straddled his lap and he grabbed her ass and pressed her against him as they began kissing passionately.
“I love you,” Amy said.
“I love you more baby,” Lucas said. They laid on the bed removing their remaining clothes and made love off and on throughout the evening and night before falling asleep in each other's arms.

Chapter 15

Three days later, Amy was sitting in her office cleaning her camera when Ashley came in with flowers.
“Flowers for you, Mrs. Reigns,” Ashley said. She took them and read the card that was with them.
“Baby, meet me at the club as soon as you get these,” Lucas said in the note.
“Oh my,” Amy said.
“What's up,” Ashley said.
“Lucas wants to meet me at the club,” Amy said.
“I'll go with you,” Ashley said. They went to the club and she walked in and saw a trail of candles and rose petals. They walked along the trail and she looked up and saw the message there.
'Will you marry me'
“What the?” Amy asked.
“Baby?” Lucas asked. She turned and saw him on one knee in front of her.
“Lucas?” Amy asked.
“I know we didn't have the traditional wedding and all that, baby, I want to give you the wedding of your dreams and I wanted to start off by proposing the right way, Amy, I fell for you when I first saw you and I never will stop loving you, you have my heart forever and I can't wait to spend the rest of our lives together, will you marry me again?” Lucas asked. He got out a ring box and opened it and saw the ring and looked at him. She held out her hand.
“Yes!” Amy said. He slid the ring on her finger and kissed her hand and stood up and kissed her deeply.
“I love you so much,” Lucas said.
“I love you too,” Amy said. They stayed and celebrated and went home where they collapsed on the bed and removed each other's clothes and made love off and on throughout the night.
“Oh god baby,” Lucas said.
“I know,” Amy said.
“I love you,” Lucas said.
“I love you,” Amy said.
“Baby?” Lucas asked.
“Hmmm?” Amy asked.
“What happened to your mom?” Lucas asked.
“She left us ten years ago, decided she wanted to be free and divorced my dad and left town, we haven't heard from her since, but we get word through mutual friends that she does keep in touch with that she's married to a doctor in LA and had twin daughters with him,” Amy said.
“So she left you and your brothers because she wanted to be free and she's married and has kids, she's not as free as she wanted to be,” Lucas said.
“I guess she wanted to be free from my dad, they fought a lot, I think it was because they had to get married so young, my dad was 18 when Sam was born, two months later my dad graduated from high school and became a model to support them,” Amy said.
“And now he runs a modeling agency,” Lucas said.
“Yep,” Amy said.
“Who gets the agency if your dad decides to retire?” Lucas asked.
“He hasn't decided that yet,” Amy said.
“So it could go to you or your brothers,” Lucas said.
“Or all three of us together,” Amy said.
“I'm with you no matter what,” Lucas said.
“What's the story with your parents?” Amy asked.
“They are traveling the world, since I took over, my mom wanted to travel so that's what they are doing,” Lucas said.
“So they haven't wanted to meet their daughter-in-law,” Amy said.
“Oh they do, they are on their way back and should be here tomorrow,” Lucas said.
“Think they will like me?” Amy asked.
“They will love you, baby,” Lucas said. They kissed and made love again before going to sleep.

Chapter 16

The next day, Amy was in the bedroom getting ready. She looked at her dress. His parents were home and having a dinner party. It was very formal. She looked at her dress in the mirror. She felt arms wrap around her from behind. She smiled and leaned back against him as he kissed her neck.
“You look amazing my love,” Lucas said.
“Thank you my king,” Amy said. She turned and looked at him and smiled.
“You look handsome,” Amy said.
“Gotta keep up with you, my love,” Lucas said.
“Are you sure they will like me?” Amy asked.
“Baby, they will love you,” Lucas said.
“I hope so, I'm so nervous,” Amy said.
“I'll be right there with you, okay, you will be fine, they will love you, just not as much as I do,” Lucas said.
“I wish we could stay home in bed,” Amy said.
“Me too, baby, but let's get this over with and then we can come home and I'll make love to you until you can't walk tomorrow,” Lucas said.
“Mmm, that would be a problem because I need to go to work tomorrow to develop the film from the shoot in Miami, my dad and Frank need the pics to look at by the end of the day tomorrow,” Amy said.
“Oh,” Lucas said.
“We can make love, I just need to be able to walk,” Amy said.
“Yes dear,” Lucas said. They left and went to his parents house. Amy looked at the house.
“Nice,” Amy said.
“Yep, this is where I grew up,” Lucas said. They got out and he held her hand as they walked up to the door and it flung open and a woman stood there.
“Lucas, my boy!” Carla said. She threw her arms around him and hugged him. He smiled and hugged her.
“Hi Mom,” Lucas said.
“Daniel, our boy is here!” Carla said.
“Mom, this is my wife, Amy,” Lucas said. His mother looked at her and grinned and pulled her into a hug.
“Oh Lucas, she is as beautiful as you said she would be, welcome to the family dear,” Carla said.
“Thank you, it's nice to meet you too,” Amy said.
“Lucas my boy!” Daniel said.
“Hey Dad,” Lucas said.
“This must be Amy, you are beautiful, Lucas, you did good,” Daniel said.
“Well you guys made the deal with her father and set it all up, I met her before knowing she was my wife,” Lucas said.
“We made the deal without seeing a picture of her and I just imagined how she would look and she is exactly how I pictured she would be,” Carla said. They went inside and sat down in the dining room.
“Dinner should be ready soon,” Carla said.
“Margo is putting the finishing touches on it,” Daniel said.
“Dinner is ready,” Margo said.
“Hi Margo,” Lucas said.
“Mr. Lucas, how are you dear?” Margo asked.
“I'm great, this is my wife, Amy,” Lucas said.
“Nice to meet you Amy, welcome,” Margo said.
“Thank you, the food looks amazing,” Amy said.
“Thank you dear, enjoy!” Margo said.
“I hope you aren't a vegetarian, Amy,” Carla said.
“I'm not, this looks so good,” Amy said. They began eating. Once they finished, Margo came to clean up. Amy began to help her but Lucas stopped her.
“It's fine, baby, they have a dishwasher in the kitchen, Margo puts the dishes in and starts it and empties it in the morning when she comes in,” Lucas said.
“Oh okay I'm not used to this,” Amy said.
“How is your father doing, Amy?” Daniel asked.
“He's doing good, he's running the modeling agency and he began dating again,” Amy said.
“He's dating Rachel,” Lucas said.
“She's a little young for him, isn't she?” Carla asked.
“Seven years,” Amy said.
“Oh well that's not too bad then,” Carla said.
“I'm ten years older than you dear,” Daniel said.
“You're right, age is just a number, you act younger than you are dear,” Carla said.
“Gotta keep up with you my love,” Daniel said.
“You do that just fine, especially in the bedroom,” Carla said.
“Mom!” Lucas said.
“Sorry dear but it's true,” Carla said.
“So are we going to be grandparents any time soon?” Daniel asked.
“Dad!” Lucas said.
“We aren't getting any younger, son,” Daniel said.
“We have talked about it, I'm going off my shot this week so we will start trying soon,” Amy said.
“That's wonderful news!” Carla said.
“First child will be a son,” Daniel said.
“Or a daughter, Dad, I just want it to be healthy regardless of it being a boy or a girl, besides nothing has happened yet, first we are going to have a wedding, I want to give Amy the wedding of her dreams,” Lucas said.
“A wedding! You have to let me plan it, just write down a list of what you want and I will get to work on it right away,” Carla said.
“If it's not too much trouble,” Amy said.
“Not for my wife it won't be, she thrives on it,” Daniel said.
“Okay I'll write down everything and get it to you soon,” Amy said. Amy and Lucas stayed for an couple hours before heading home. They locked up and he carried her upstairs where he removed their clothes and went into the shower and made love to her in the shower. They washed off and got out and dried off and he got her on the bed and they made love off and on throughout the night before going to sleep.

Chapter 17

Three weeks later, Amy arrived home from a long day at the agency. She and Lucas have been working on getting pregnant over the last week.
“Lucas?” Amy said. She got no answer so she went looking for him all over the house and walked into his office. She saw a book on his desk and she looked and saw pictures of people dead. She flipped through it and came across one that stopped her cold.
“Amy?” Lucas asked. She slowly looked up and saw him standing at the door. He saw the book and looked at her.
“Tell me you didn't,” Amy said.
“What baby?” Lucas asked.
“My mom's dead?” Amy asked.
“What?” Lucas asked.
“Her picture is right here in this book of dead people whom your family has killed,” Amy said. He came over and looked at the picture of her mother.
“Oh baby, no, this is my dad's book, he said it was pictures of people whom he and your father took out together, he gave it to me to look at but I haven't yet,” Lucas said.
“You didn't know?” Amy asked.
“No, baby, I didn't, if I did, I never would have asked you what happened to her, I would have already known if I had known this, oh baby,” Lucas said. He pulled her into his arms as she broke down crying. He sent a text to her father and brothers and his parents.
“She's been dead this whole time!” Amy said.
“I texted everyone to come over here,” Lucas said. He picked her up and carried her out to the living room and sat her on the couch and sat next to her.
“What could she have done to be killed?” Amy asked.
“I don't know, baby, but we will find out okay, I'm here and not going anywhere,” Lucas said. The front door opened and closed and Sam and JJ came in and saw Amy crying. They ran to her.
“Sis,” JJ said.
“What happened?” Sam asked. The front door opened and closed and Jack came in with Carla and Daniel behind him.
“What's going on?” Carla asked.
“You pregnant?” Daniel asked.
“No,” Amy said.
“Sweetheart?” Jack asked.
“She found the book,” Lucas said.
“The book?” Jack asked.
“Oh no,” Carla said.
“Lucas?” Daniel asked.
“What's going on?” Sam asked.
“What book?” JJ asked.
“The book of people who were killed by Dad and Daniel,” Amy said.
“Oh god,” Jack said.
“Tell them!” Amy said.
“Dad?” Sam asked.
“Dad?” JJ asked.
“Your mom is in that book,” Jack said.
“She's dead?” Sam asked.
“You guys killed her?!” JJ said.
“No we didn't,” Daniel said.
“We put the picture in it as a coverup,” Carla said.
“What?” JJ asked.
“Who killed her?” Sam asked.
“Jack?” Lucas asked.
“Your sister did,” Jack said.
“What!” Amy said.
“What!” Sam said.
“What!” JJ said.
“Your mom has been having an affair, with Nick and Jamie's father, I was in Paris for a fashion show and your mom didn't want to take you guys out of school to go with me so she stayed home, she really wanted to stay home to be with him, you guys were at school, she probably waited until you guys were gone before calling him to the house, but Amy forgot her homework she needed for that day, so she ran back home and saw the motorcycle in the driveway and she went in and heard noises upstairs, she walked in on them in bed, the guy got dressed and ran out as Amy was yelling at her for cheating on me, your mom started arguing back that she was lonely and needed someone who would be there for her, Amy went into the kitchen to get her homework and your mom followed her and they continued fighting, it got to the point where she was calling your mom a whore and your mom got angry and slapped Amy, she got a knife to defend herself from your mom, your mom misjudged the knife,” Jack said.
“Oh god,” Sam said.
“She impaled herself on the knife,” JJ said.
“Amy was in a state of shock that she curled up against the wall in the kitchen and didn't move,” Jack said.
“How did you know all this?” Lucas asked.
“I had cameras in the house, I was watching from my phone, I knew something was going on with your mom while I was gone, she was always so happy for me going away, because she knew she would get time with her lover without me around to catch them but she didn't count on Amy coming home that day,” Jack said.
“He called me to go over to the house,” Daniel said.
“I was with him, I saw Amy curled up against the wall shaking, she never registered that we were there, she was in a state of shock,” Carla said.
“I had Carla take her to the hospital while I staged it as a mob hit and had the guys come take her body and do cleanup,” Daniel said.
“When they clean, they clean good, never knew anything even happened,” Jack said.
“Your dad came up with the story of your mother leaving him and you guys and moving to California,” Daniel said.
“She's been dead this whole time,” JJ said.
“And you hid that from us?” Sam asked.
“I never wanted any of you to know the truth, or that Amy did it,” Jack said.
“Actually Mom killed herself,” JJ said.
“She knew the knife was there, she ran into the knife,” Sam said.
“She stabbed herself,” JJ said.
“For all we know, she wanted to kill Amy to keep her little secret,” Sam said. Amy sat there quietly while they talked. Lucas wrapped his arms around her. She broke down sobbing and curled up in his arms.
“Oh god!” Amy said.
“Shh, baby I'm here,” Lucas said.
“Sweetheart?” Jack asked.
“Daddy, it's my fault,” Amy said.
“No sweetheart, it's not, it's her own fault, I saw the video, she walked right into that knife, she knew what she was doing,” Jack said.
“Oh god!” Amy said.
“So she wanted to die,” Sam said.
“So her secret would stay safe,” JJ said.
“Because she figured that Amy would think she killed her and have a total breakdown and be catatonic,” Sam said.
“She was for three days,” Carla said.
“She came to after I got her home,” Jack said.
“Wait, she was at our house the whole time?” Lucas asked.
"Yes honey, while you were at boarding school,” Carla said.
“Oh,” Lucas said.
“Lucas,” Amy said.
“Yes baby?” Lucas asked.
“Please don't leave me,” Amy said.
“I'm not going anywhere, baby,” Lucas said. She curled up against him as he held her close.

Chapter 18

That night they were in bed. Lucas was holding her in his arms.
“I can't believe it,” Amy said.
“Baby, don't,” Lucas said.
“She's been dead this whole time, she wanted me to not share her secret, I blocked it out, as my dad was telling the story, it all came flooding back, she wanted me to break, she wanted me to be in a mental hospital, she planned it, I remember it, she saw me get the knife and she said thank you for getting that, now I have a way to secure my secret, you won't tell a soul because you will be locked up in a mental hospital and she ran at me and stabbed herself,” Amy said.
“Which is why you should move on, your mother did something horrible, she destroyed your family,” Lucas said.
“Oh god, do Jamie and Nick know?” Amy asked.
“I don't believe so, I called them over for a meeting in the morning,” Lucas said.
“Oh,” Amy said.
“Baby, it will be okay,” Lucas said.
“I know, I just been through a lot today, long day at the agency and finding out the truth about my mom,” Amy said.
“I love you,” Lucas said.
“I love you, please don't let me go,” Amy said.
“Never baby, you are mine always,” Lucas said.
The next morning they got up and went to shower and they made love in the shower. They washed off and got out and dried off and got dressed and went downstairs and had breakfast and the doorbell rang. Lucas opened it and saw Nick and Jamie.
“Come in,” Lucas said.
“Is everything okay?” Jamie asked.
“That depends on what you both think after you hear the story,” Lucas said. They sat in the living room where Amy was.
“What's going on?” Jamie asked.
“It's about your father,” Amy said.
“What about him?” Nick asked.
“He had an affair with my mom,” Amy said.
“What!” Jamie said.
“He wouldn't do that, he loved our mom,” Nick said.
“I caught them in bed,” Amy said. Lucas and Amy told them everything. Nick got up and paced the room. Jamie sat there crying.
“That bastard, how could he do this to our mother!” Nick said.
“Oh Amy!” Jamie said. She hugged Amy close. Amy hugged her back.
“I'm glad that bastard is dead, I would kill him myself,” Nick said.
“Me too, I thought he loved our mother, he worshiped the ground she walked on or so I thought,” Jamie said.
“I'm never going to be like him, I will never step out on my woman,” Nick said.
“Good because I don't know if I want to claim him as a father,” Jamie said.
“Thank you both for coming by and letting us tell you what happened,” Amy said.
“Thank you for telling us what kind of a father we had,” Jamie said.
“Yes, thank you for telling us, now I know for sure how I want to live my life and it isn't like he did,” Nick said. They said bye and Jamie hugged her and they left. Lucas hugged Amy to him.
“I love you baby,” Lucas said.
“I love you,” Amy said.
“Let's go work on a baby,” Lucas said.
“Take me to bed my king,” Amy said. He carried her upstairs and remove their clothes and they spent most of the day in bed making love off and on. They laid there after the last time trying to catch their breath.
“Baby, if that doesn't work then we have a problem,” Luca said.
“It had to of worked, who knows, I could already be pregnant,” Amy said.
“I love you,” Lucas said.
“I love you,” Amy said. They kissed and went to sleep. The next day, Lucas got a call from his father about an issue out of the country. He packed a bag and called her brothers to come stay with her so she wouldn't be alone. They showed up with a bag and Lucas kissed her and left.
“You okay sis?” JJ asked.
“Yeah, just going to miss him,” Amy said.
“He'll be okay,” Sam said.
“I know,” Amy said.
Three weeks later, Lucas was still out of town but called every night. She was out having drinks with the girls. They were having fun getting drunk and dancing. She was so plastered that she didn't realize that someone was taking her home from the club. She opened her eyes and saw it was bright and looked around and saw a room she didn't recognize. She sat up and saw the bathroom door open and couldn't believe what she saw.

Chapter 19

Amy covered her face with her hands. She looked and saw she was naked in bed.
“Good morning,” Nick said.
“What the hell happened?” Amy asked.
“We had a wild night last night, you were all over me and we came here and had sex all night long,” Nick said.
“You're joking right,” Amy said.
“Oh no I'm not joking,” Nick said.
“Oh god no no!” Amy said. She grabbed her clothes and put them on and jumped out of bed.
“Where are you going?” Nick asked.
“Home! The one I share with my husband!” Amy said.
“You just cheated on him,” Nick said.
“For all I know you could be lying and nothing happened and you made it look like we did,” Amy said. The door burst opened and Jamie stood there with Ashley.
“Amy there you are!” Jamie said.
“I have to get out of here,” Amy said.
“What happened last night,” Jamie said.
“He said I cheated on Lucas,” Amy said.
“Nick?” Jamie asked.
“Okay fine, nothing happened, you passed out after stripping your clothes and I slept on the couch,” Nick said.
“That the truth?” Amy asked.
“Swear to god,” Nick said.
“I'll take you home,” Jamie said. They left and she took Amy home and she went in and saw her brothers pacing.
“Thank god!” JJ said.
“Where were you sis?” Sam asked.
“At Jamie's,” Amy said. She sat down and broke down crying. JJ and Sam sat with her and hugged her.
“What happened sis?” JJ asked. She told them everything. Sam got up and paced the room.
“I could kill him,” Sam said.
“I want to go to the doctor, I want to get a full checkup,” Amy said.
“Let's go,” JJ said. They took her to the doctor and she got a full checkup. As she was waiting, her phone rang. She saw it was Lucas.
“Hello,” Amy said.
“Something you want to tell me?” Lucas asked.
“What do you mean?” Amy asked.
“I got a picture of you naked in Nick's bed,” Lucas said.
“Oh god, Sam, go kill that jackass,” Amy said.
“Yes!” Sam said. He went out the door. Amy looked at JJ.
“I'm waiting,” Lucas said.
“I went out with Ashley and Jamie and drank too much and next thing I knew I woke up and saw I was in a bedroom and I saw him in the shower in the bathroom, I saw I was naked and he said we had a wild night but then Jamie came in and he confessed that nothing happened and that I passed out after stripping my clothes off, I'm at the doctor now getting a full checkup,” Amy said.
“Good, I'm on my way home now and we are going to talk about this,” Lucas said.
“Lucas,” Amy said.
“I'll talk to you when I get home, Amy,” Lucas said. He hung up and she hung up and sat there. JJ hugged her as she started to sob. The doctor came in.
“Mrs. Reigns, congratulations, you are three weeks pregnant,” Dr. Teagan said.
“Oh god, I got drunk last night, will that hurt it?” Amy asked.
“We will check you again next week, but I would stop drinking now,” Dr. Teagan said.
“I definitely will, thank you,” Amy said. She got an appointment set up and JJ took her home. He got her settled on the couch. Lucas came in and sat down next to her.
“Okay why did you get drunk last night to the point where you didn't know squat about what was happening?” Lucas asked.
“I don't know, we were having a good time and the drinks were good and Ashley made a bet that we couldn't out drink her, I guess I won,” Amy said.
“So how did you end up in his bed,” Lucas said.
“I don't know, everything was a blue after the last drink,” Amy said.
“What did the doctor say?” Lucas asked.
“I can't drink anymore, I have another appointment next week,” Amy said.
“What for?” Lucas asked. She took his hand and put it on her stomach. He looked at her.
“Three weeks along,” Amy said.
“We're pregnant?” Lucas asked.
“Yes, that's why she wants to see me next week, because of last night,” Amy said.
“She find anything else?” Lucas asked.
“No, no vaginal penetration, she said it look like I haven't had sex for awhile,” Amy said.
“Three weeks?” Lucas asked.
“Yeah, she said it looked that way,” Amy said.
“Okay, then maybe he was telling the truth about that but why send me a pic,” Lucas said.
“Oh god he wants me for himself and he wants to destroy us,” Amy said.
“Where's Sam?” Lucas asked.
“I sent him after him,” Amy said.
“What,” Lucas said.
“He just texted me, he said it's taken care of and he's heading back,” JJ said.
“What did he do?” Amy asked.
“He called Dad on the way,” JJ said.
“So Dad took care of him,” Amy said. The front door opened and closed and Sam came in with Jack.
“He's dealt with,” Jack said.
“How?” Lucas asked.
“Well, had some help from Jamie,” Jack said.
“What?” Amy asked.
“She went off on him and grabbed Dad's gun and shot him,” Sam said.
“Is he?” Amy asked.
“No she couldn't kill him, he's all she has left for immediate family, he got the point she was making, he told the truth, he never did anything while you were there,” Jack said.
“Thank god,” Amy said.
“Baby?” Lucas asked.
“We have some news,” Amy said.
“What's up?” Sam asked.
“We're pregnant,” Amy said.
“I'm going to be a grandfather?” Jack asked.
“Uncle Sam,” Sam said.
“Yes,” Amy said. They hugged her. Jack shook Lucas's hand. Sam did a bro hug with him.

Chapter 20

That night, Lucas and Amy were in bed. She had her head on his chest and he was playing with her hair and stroking her arm.
“Baby?” Lucas asked.
“Hmm?” Amy asked.
“What's wrong?” Lucas asked.
“I'm just glad you didn't leave me,” Amy said.
“Why would I leave you?” Lucas asked.
“I just thought you would think the worst seeing that pic,” Amy said.
“I did but I wanted you to tell me what happened and you did and you didn't lie either,” Lucas said.
“I couldn't lie to you,” Amy said.
“I love you and I can't be without you, and now we are having a baby, Amy, I don't have to forgive you because you didn't do anything wrong, I mean, you got drunk but he took advantage of that,” Lucas said.
“Regardless of that, I'm never drinking again, maybe a glass of wine with dinner or something but I'm not going to try to out drink Ashley again, I'm never getting flat ass drunk like that again,” Amy said.
“Baby, I don't think you will be drinking for awhile, as soon as this baby is born, six weeks later, I'm putting another one in you,” Lucas said.
“Oh my god, seriously, one right after another, no quality time with the first one?” Amy said.
“Okay two month but won't you be nursing?” Lucas asked.
“Crap,” Amy said.
“Come here baby,” Lucas said. He pulled her close and they kissed deeply.
“Make love to me my king,” Amy said.
“My please, my queen,” Lucas said. They slowly removed each other's clothes and made love. They went to sleep in each other's arms. The next day they got up and got dressed and he took her to work. He kissed her and she went to her office and saw Matthew there.
“Hey,” Amy said.
“Can we talk?” Matthew asked.
“Sure what's up?” Amy asked.
“I ended things with Stacy,” Matthew said.
“Why?” Amy asked.
“I can't get over you,” Matthew said.
“Matthew,” Amy said.
“I have tried and tried and I can't move on, you are the only one for me,” Matthew said.
“You know why we can't be together,” Amy said.
“I did some checking,” Matthew said.
“Matt?” Amy asked.
“Amy, you and Lucas aren't legally married,” Matthew said.
“What?” Amy said.
“The papers were fake, done by your father and his,” Matthew said.
“Oh god,” Amy said.
“What's going on here?” Jack asked.
“Is it true, Dad?” Amy asked.
“What honey?” Jack asked.
“The papers are fake, me and Lucas aren't legally married,” Amy said.
“Honey,” Jack said.
“IS IT TRUE!” Amy yelled.
“Yes honey,” Jack said.
“Why!” Amy said.
“Because I thought Lucas would make a better husband,” Jack said.
“You never liked me did you,” Matthew said.
“It's not that, Matthew, his father wanted him to have a queen and Daniel thought my daughter would make a fine queen so we came up with the plan, draw up fake papers stating the marriage long enough for you both to fall in love and plan the real wedding,” Jack said.
“I can't believe this,” Amy said.
“Amy, let's get out of here,” Matthew said.
“Matthew,” Jack said.
“No, she's not married to Lucas now,” Matthew said.
“But she's having his baby,” Jack said.
“So what, he was going to raise my baby as his own, I will raise his,” Matthew said.
“Amy,” Jack said.
“Goodbye father,” Amy said. Matthew and Amy went out the door.
“Amy?” Matthew asked.
“Hmm?” Amy said.
“You're in love with him, aren't you,” Matthew said.
“Yeah, but I'm so pissed right now, I have no idea if he knew,” Amy said.
“Where is he?” Matthew asked.
“The club,” Amy said.
“Let's go,” Matthew said. They went to the club and walked into the office and saw Lucas doing paperwork.
“Baby, what's wrong?” Lucas asked.
“Found out some news,” Amy said.
“I did some investigating,” Matthew said.
“On what?” Lucas asked.
“Our marriage, it's fake,” Amy said.
“What!” Lucas said.
“It was set up by your father and hers, your father wanted you to have a queen and thought Amy would be perfect so he got with Jack and they drew up fake papers and boom, married, they figured you both would fall in love and want a real wedding,” Matthew said.
“Lucas?” Amy asked.
“Son of a bitch!” Lucas said.
“Did you know?” Matthew asked.
“No, I did not know, I swear, I thought it was as real as you all did,” Lucas said.
“You aren't lying, are you,” Matthew said.
“No Matt, he wouldn't lie to the mother of his child, he knows as much as we do,” Amy said.
“I'm going to go talk to my father about this, he will not get away with this,” Lucas said.
“Deal with my dad as well,” Amy said.
“Amy, does this change things?” Lucas asked.
“I confessed that I can't get over her,” Matthew said.
“So you want her back,” Lucas said.
“Yes I do,” Matthew said.
“She's having my baby,” Lucas said.
“I will raise it as mine,” Matthew said.
“Matthew,” Amy said.
“Amy, we broke up for no reason!” Matthew said.
“Look, I love you both okay, I built a life with Lucas, I still love you, I don't know what to do,” Amy said.
“The life you built was a lie!” Matthew said.
“The love and the feelings I have for him are not a lie,” Amy said.
“Amy, we can have our life back, you know how we were together, we can have that all back,” Matthew said.
“You know what, I need to go, I need time to myself,” Amy said.
“Amy,” Lucas said.
“Amy,” Matthew said.
“No, I'm going to go, don't stop me either of you, I need time to myself, alone!” Amy said. She went out the door and went to Lucas's house and packed a bag and got into her car and headed out of town.

Chapter 21

Three weeks went by, Amy sat in the hotel room she had been staying in. She figured that they knew where she was and respected her enough to let her be. She had called the doctor about her missed appointment and see a doctor close to her and everything was going well. She sent a text to Lucas telling him that the baby was fine. She sat there in the room looking at all the text messages on her phone.
“Amy, I miss you so much, the bed is lonely without you,” Lucas texted.
“Amy, I love you more than life, I need you, we belong together,” Matthew texted.
“I will support any choice you make, if it's him, I will respect that, I want to at least be a father to our child,” Lucas texted.
“We can raise the baby together as our own, I will be the father,” Matthew texted. Amy sat there staring at the messages on her phone. Lucas was willing to step aside if she wanted to get back with Matthew. Matthew wanted to cut Lucas out of his baby's life.
“Amy, sorry about the previous message, if you want Lucas to be involved in his baby's life, we can do that, I would do anything for you and to be with you again,” Matthew texted.
“I dealt with our fathers, they have been taken care of,” Lucas texted.
“Sis, Dad is in the hospital, he got what he deserved after what he and Daniel did,” JJ texted.
“We will keep you updated but we know you wouldn't care right now and you are right not to, what they did was inexcusable,” Sam texted.
“We love you sis,” JJ texted.
“Take care of our little niece or nephew,” Sam texted.
“Hey girl, we heard what happened, I talked to my stupid ass brother, he and I worked things out and one thing was that he leave you be which he agreed as long as he had me back in his life,” Jamie texted.
“Hope you are doing okay, miss you,” Ashley texted.
“Amy, I had no idea what my husband and your father did, I was no part of it, I swear to you, I am beyond livid at Daniel for this and I'm currently staying with Lucas at the house for the time being because they have to clean the house after what happened, yes clean, Lucas was beyond livid at what they did, my husband is currently in the hospital with your father recovering from the gunshot wounds that Lucas inflicted on him,” Carla texted.
“Oh my,” Amy said.
“Amy, baby, I love you, I truly do, I would do anything for you, I can't lose you from my life,” Lucas texted.
“Amy, you are everything to me, I can't lose you, I love you so much,” Matthew texted.
“I know you don't want to hear from me, sweetheart, I'm sorry for what I did, Lucas and Matthew are two great guys and whoever you choose, I will support the choice, I love you honey, and I'm sorry again,” Jack texted.
“Ugh!” Amy said. She held her head in her hands. Her phone beeped a few minutes later.
“Amy, Lucas just got attacked by a rival, he's been shot and in the hospital, Hank and Todd are guarding him along with the rest of the men,” Greg texted.
“Oh god!” Amy said. She got her stuff together and checked out and headed home. She went to the hospital and saw Hank and Todd standing outside a room.
“Guys?” Amy asked.
“He's in there,” Hank said.
“It's not looking good,” Todd said. Amy went in and saw Carla sitting by Lucas's bedside holding his hand.
“Carla,” Amy said.
“Oh Amy!” Carla said. She got up and came over and hugged her.
“How is he?” Amy asked.
“They said that he might not make it through the night,” Carla said.
“Who did this?” Amy asked.
“Ricardo Mann, a rival mafia king, he thought Lucas was part of the fake marriage with his father and yours, Daniel called him and told him that Lucas wasn't a part of it, Ricardo is gathering all the mafia kings to discuss putting a treaty in place so nothing like this happens again,” Carla said.
“So he regrets it?” Amy asked.
“Big time,” Carla said.
“Deeply regret it,” Ricardo said.
“You did this?” Amy asked.
“I deeply regret this,” Ricardo said.
“If he dies, you will pay,” Amy said.
“Amy honey,” Carla said.
“I can't lose the father of my child!” Amy said.
“I will forever regret what I did, I am very sorry, I talked with the other kings, they agree to a treaty,” Ricardo said.
“That's good now go,” Amy said.
“As you wish, I'm sorry again and I will forever regret what id did,” Ricardo said. He left and Amy sat down and took his hand in hers.
“I'm here, Lucas, you can't leave us, you are going to be a father, please don't give up, fight please fight to come back to us, I love you,” Amy said. Carla hugged her as Amy cried softly as she held his hand.

Chapter 22

The next morning, Amy woke up from the bed that was placed in the hospital room and saw Lucas still lying there hooked up to machines. He made it through the night.
“They said you wouldn't make it through the night, I guess you proved them wrong or you can hear me and are fighting to stay with us, now you have to come back to us, you have to wake up,” Amy said.
“Amy?” Matthew asked.
“What are you going here?” Amy asked.
“I called his mom to see how he was doing and she said you were with him,” Matthew said.
“He made it through the night when they said he might not,” Amy said.
“That's good, it's a good sign,” Matthew said.
“If you want to know if I made a choice, I haven't, I just know I can't leave him, I love him,” Amy said.
“But not me,” Matthew said.
“I love you both, but right now he's here fighting for his life, he needs me more, I need to be here with him,” Amy said.
“I understand, do you need anything, clothes? Food?” Matthew said.
“Food, I have my bag with me,” Amy said.
“Chinese?” Matthew said.
“Sounds good,” Amy said.
“I'll get your favorite,” Matthew said.
“Thanks,” Amy said. He left. Amy sat there holding his hands. She felt a hand on her shoulder and she looked and saw Nick.
“Don't touch me,” Amy said.
“I'm sorry for everything, I know where you belong, with him, I relieved Hank and Todd to let them go rest since they have been here all night,” Nick said.
“I don't think he needs guarding anymore, the guy who shot him regrets it and he got the other kings to sign a treaty,” Amy said.
“Amy, it's better safe than sorry, he could have said that to have you guys let your guard down,” Nick said.
“Then why did Hank and Todd let him come in here yesterday to apologize,” Amy said.
“What?” Nick asked.
“He was here, the guy who shot him, Ricardo Mann, he said he regrets doing it and wants a treaty with all the mafia kings,” Amy said.
“He didn't hurt you did he,” Nick said.
“No, Carla was with me,” Amy said.
“He wouldn't dare hurt you with Carla around, they are scared of her,” Nick said.
“What's going on here?” Daniel asked.
“Get out!” Amy said.
“Amy,” Daniel said.
“This is all your fault, get out!” Amy said.
“Now young lady, watch your tone,” Daniel said.
“Oh really I should watch my tone, he's fighting for his life because of your deal with my father!” Amy said.
“Daniel, go,” Nick said.
“You have no business here,” Daniel said.
“Oh yes I do, she is my sister's best friend, she is under my protection as much as your son is because he's the father of her unborn child, you set this all in motion so get the hell out of here before I call security or I put more bullet holes in you,” Nick said. “Daniel, what the hell are you doing here, get out,” Carla said.
“I came to see my son!” Daniel said.
“You don't have one, he disowned you remember when he shot you for what you did, unless you want divorce papers served to you, get out!” Carla said.
“Carla, please, I'm sorry, I wanted my son to find that special someone and I thought it was Amy,” Daniel said.
“And now?” Carla asked.
“I know he loves her and she loves him and she's having our grandchild,” Daniel said.
“The way you went about it was wrong, making them think they were married this whole time when they weren't, you and Jack lied to them, you both lied to both families,” Carla said.
“What's going on here,” JJ said.
“Get out Daniel,” Sam said.
“Let's go out in the hall, dear,” Carla said. She dragged Daniel out in the hall. JJ and Sam looked at Nick.
“Guys, he's fine, he was trying to get him out, he's here to stand guard at the door,” Amy said.
“I'll be out in the hall,” Nick said. He went out the door and closed it. JJ and Sam hugged her.
“You okay sis,” JJ said.
“Yeah when he wakes up,” Amy said.
“He will, he has a lot to live for,” Sam said.
“Carla told me when I got here that they told her that he wouldn't make it through the night but he did,” Amy said.
“He knows you are here,” Sam said.
“He is fighting to come back to you,” JJ said. Lucas moans.
“Lucas,” Amy said.
“I'll get the doctor,” Sam said. He ran out of the room as Amy stood by the bed and took his hand and his eyes fluttered open and he looked around and saw her and smiled.
“Hey baby,” Lucas said.
“Oh my god!” Amy said. She gently hugged him burying her face in his neck.

Chapter 23

Two days later, Lucas sat there as the doctor examined him. Amy sat beside him on the bed.
“You are healing nicely, two more days and we will let you go home,” the doctor said.
“Doc, I can rest at home, why can't I go now?” Lucas asked.
“Mr. Reigns, you are close to death a few days ago, we don't want to rush things,” the doctor said.
“Who said I was going to rush anything, I want to go home to my own bed, I want to sleep in my own bed, I will go home straight to bed, I won't move unless it's to the bathroom, I can have her brothers come stay to help me,” Lucas said.
“Very well, I will get the discharge papers,” the doctor said. He left the room and Lucas looked at her and he put a hand on her stomach.
“How's our little one?” Lucas asked.
“Doing good, the drinking didn't affect it so that's good, I've been taking it easy and trying to keep the stress down,” Amy said.
“No stress okay,” Lucas said.
“Tell that to your fucking father who insisted on coming in here before you woke up and had the nerve to tell me that I had no right to kick him out of here,” Amy said.
“Where is he?” Lucas asked.
“Your mother is keeping him away from the hospital, she got him out by threatening divorce,” Amy said.
“Oh boy, divorce is one thing that he never wants, and he's scared of her,” Lucas said.
“Nick was here helping as well,” Amy said.
“What?” Lucas said.
“As a favor to Jamie, Nick, Hank, and Todd took turns guarding your door,” Amy said.
“He didn't do anything, did he,” Lucas said.
“He apologized for everything and told me that he knows where I belong, here with you,” Amy said.
“So you chose me?” Lucas asked.
“I didn't say that, I couldn't leave you, I just couldn't,” Amy said.
“You chose him?” Lucas asked.
“I haven't chosen yet, I don't know what to do still, Greg texted me saying you got shot and I hightailed it back here,” Amy said.
“Amy, I meant what I said,” Lucas said.
“I know, everything is just a mess in my head, I know I love you, I still love him, I'm having your baby, he's willing to be there for me regardless,” Amy said.
“I know this is hard for you, I don't want to step aside, I want to be with you, Amy, forever,” Lucas said.
“I know, Lucas, it's just that he was right, he and I broke up because of fake marriage papers and I can't blame you because you didn't know they were fake either,” Amy said.
“If they were fake, I wouldn't have came for you, I would have left you be and blocked my father from my life right then,” Lucas said.
“And he did this behind your mom's back,” Amy said.
“Yep, and if there is one person he is scared of, it's her,” Lucas said. The doctor came in and Lucas signed the papers and he slowly got up and changed into some clothes and they wheeled him out to Amy's car and they helped him in. Amy put her bag in the backseat and got in and they headed for the house.
“I'll be happy to sleep in my own bed, I hated that hospital bed, not comfortable at all,” Lucas said.
“Yeah I know, JJ and Sam will be at the house to help you up to bed,” Amy said. She pulled in and got out and JJ and Sam helped Lucas out and up to the bedroom while Amy followed. The guys got him settled into bed and hugged her and left the room.
“They aren't staying?” Lucas asked.
“They are going to get a bag of clothes and come back,” Amy said.
“Want to lay with me, you should get some rest, probably need it after being at the hospital with me,” Lucas said.
All right,” Amy said. She got into bed with him and they went to sleep. JJ and Sam came back and saw them asleep and went to pick rooms and got them cleaned up. They sat in the living room watching TV.

Chapter 24

Three weeks later, Lucas was at the doctor for a checkup in his recovery. Amy and JJ were with him. The doctor examined Lucas.
“You can start getting back to normal but still take it easy for awhile,” the doctor said.
“Thanks doc,” Lucas said. They went to Amy's appointment and they did an ultrasound and heard the heartbeat and saw the baby on the screen.
“What the?” Amy said.
“Looks like you are having twins, Amy,” Dr. Teagan said.
“Twins?” Lucas asked.
“Yes twins,” Dr. Teagan said.
“Wow, I got to text everyone,” JJ said.
“No JJ, we share the news in person,” Amy said.
“I was just going to text Sam,” JJ said.
“We will tell him at the house,” Amy said.
“Okay,” JJ said. They got pictures and went home where Sam was watching TV.
“Well?” Sam asked.
“I can go back to doing normal things again,” Lucas said.
“And I'm pregnant with twins,” Amy said.
“Twins?” Sam asked.
“Do you guys want to move in?” Amy said.
“Yeah guys,” Lucas said.
“JJ, let's go get the rest of our stuff!” Sam said. They ran out the door. Amy looked at Lucas.
“I guess that was a yes,” Lucas said.
“I guess so, do you want to call your mom?” Amy said.
“Call your father,” Lucas said.
“Fine,” Amy said. She called her father. He answered after the first ring.
“Sweetheart?” Jack said.
“Hey Dad,” Amy said.
“I'm glad you called, I've missed you,” Jack said.
“I still have forgiven you for what you did, but I'm just calling to tell you that I found out that I'm having twins,” Amy said.
“Sweetheart, I'm so happy for you and I'm happy that I will be a grandfather to twins,” Jack said.
“It is going to take some time for me to forgive you, I don't know when I'll be back to work, I'm not ready to face you yet,” Amy said.
“Come back to work, sweetheart, I'll stay out of your way,” Jack said.
“It's not just you I'm avoiding,” Amy said.
“Oh sweetheart, I sent Matthew to Europe for a six month long photo shoot,” Jack said.
“Oh?” Amy said.
“Yes honey, I talked with him about everything and told him it was best to give you space, the agency in Paris has been after him for awhile now and he took it to give you space,” Jack said.
“All right, I'll come back tomorrow but keep your promise please,” Amy said.
“I will, sweetheart, I love you, please know that,” Jack said.
“Bye Dad,” Amy said. She hung up and sat back. Lucas sat down beside her.
“Baby?” Lucas asked.
“I'm going back to work tomorrow, my dad promised to give me space, he said Matthew went to Europe for six months,” Amy said.
“Oh,” Lucas said.
“Yeah,” Amy said.
“What does this mean?” Lucas asked.
“It means that I'm here with you and we are having twins,” Amy said.
“But you haven't made a choice yet,” Lucas said.
“Give me some time,” Amy said.
“I'm not pressuring you, baby, just know that I'm here and not going anywhere, I love you and always will, that won't stop no matter what,” Lucas said.
“I know,” Amy said. There was pounding on the front door. Amy looked at Lucas.
“Sam, JJ, stay with her,” Lucas said. He went to open the door with his gun. Sam and JJ huddled around Amy.
BANG
BANG

Chapter 25

Amy covered her mouth as they heard gunshots. Sam hugged her close as JJ peeked into the front entry.
“He's okay,” JJ whispered. They went to the door and saw Lucas standing over his father with the gun pointed at him.
“What the?” Sam asked.
“Lucas?” JJ asked.
“He came to kill Amy,” Lucas said.
“What!” Amy said.
“She deserves to die,” Daniel said.
“Baby, call my mom,” Lucas said. She went to make the call. Lucas held the gun to his father.
“Lucas, can I finish him?” Sam asked.
“No me,” JJ said.
“How about me,” Jack said. Jack and Rachel came to the door.
“Jack,” Daniel said.
“Lucas, what did he do this time?” Jack asked.
“He came to kill your daughter, says she deserves to die, which by killing her, he would be killing his grandchildren,” Lucas said.
“They probably aren't yours,” Daniel said.
“She's nine weeks pregnant, Daniel, she's only been with Lucas in the weeks before the babies were conceived,” Jack said.
“Carla is on her way with her gun,” Amy said.
“Oh god,” Daniel said.
“I would say goodbye now, Daniel,” Rachel said.
“Why do you want my daughter dead?” Jack asked.
“She took my son away!” Daniel said.
“Then why draw up the fake marriage papers?” Amy asked.
“You said I needed a queen and I found one and now you want her gone so you could have me back, why,” Lucas said.
“I made a mistake!” Daniel said.
“The only mistake you made was having me as your son, you are nothing to me!” Lucas said.
“And me,” Carla said.
“Carla please,” Daniel said.
“Goodbye Daniel,” Carla said. She raised her gun and shot him between the eyes. Lucas pulled Amy close and held her to him as she cried. Carla stood there over the body of her husband.
“Call the cleaners,” Carla said. Rachel called Greg and told him what happened and a few minutes later the cleaners showed up.
“Mom?” Lucas asked.
“I'm okay honey,” Carla said.
“That man was not the father I knew,” Lucas said.
“Lucas,” Kevin said.
“Kev?” Lucas asked.
“Greg told me what happened, I did some digging into your father's past, he had a twin brother that was given up at birth, your grandparents couldn't afford both of them so they had to give one up,” Kevin said.
“What exactly are you saying?” Jack asked.
“That's Daniel's twin,” Kevin said.
“Why did he want Amy dead?” Lucas asked.
“Because he also had an affair with her mother, he probably thought she would remember it,” Kevin said.
“I only saw her in bed with Nick and Jamie's dad, I never saw her with him,” Amy said.
“He probably got paranoid and thought you did,” Kevin said.
“So where's my husband?” Carla asked.
“I'm right here, honey,” Daniel said.
“Oh Daniel!” Carla said. She hugged him. He held her close.
“Dad?” Lucas asked.
“Lucas my boy!” Daniel said.
“Where have you been?” Lucas asked.
“In the basement of the club, the part where no one goes,” Daniel said.
“I heard a noise when I went down there and I found him,” Kevin said.
“Dad, how long were you down there?” Lucas asked.
“What is today?” Daniel asked.
“April 18th,” Lucas said.
“Oh god, nine weeks,” Daniel said.
“Oh god,” Carla said.
“Honey,” Daniel said.
“You mean I've been sleeping with this asshole for nine weeks!” Carla said.
“Mom, you didn't know,” Lucas said.
“I should have known it wasn't him, there was no way to know he wasn't you, it was like he knew your life,” Carla said.
“Honey, I love you, you did not know, you couldn't have known it wasn't me if he knew my life, he must have been planning this for months, watching us, finding out everything, he could have came into contact with any of us,” Daniel said.
“Did you know the marriage papers were fake?” Amy asked.
“Oh god, years, he's been planning for years!” Daniel said.
“You didn't know?” Carla asked.
“I thought you guys had a quickie wedding and wanted a family wedding,” Daniel said.
“So you didn't meet with me to set up the marriage,” Jack said.
“No Jack, I didn't, the men told me that we had new guys from another mafia family because the king of the family wanted out and had no heirs old enough, I never questioned it,” Daniel said.
“Oh Dad,” Lucas said.
“If he's been planning this for years, what if he's Lucas's father?” Carla asked.
“Son?” Daniel asked.
“Let's go,” Lucas said. They left to go to the hospital. Amy hugged Carla as she cried.
“I can't believe this,” Carla said.
“He loves you, Carla, this is not your fault,” Jack said. They watched the body being taken away. They went inside and sat in the living room.
“There was no way of knowing about who he was, he fooled us all,” Rachel said.
“I know, how can I look at Daniel after everything,” Carla said.
“With your heart, do you love Daniel?” Amy asked.
“Oh god yes,” Carla said.
“Then listen with your heart,” Amy said.
“Thank you honey,” Carla said. They all sat there waiting for them to come back with the results.

Chapter 26

Lucas and Daniel came back with the results. They looked at everyone. Carla stood up.
“Well?” Carla asked.
“He's my son,” Daniel said.
“Thank god!” Carla said. Lucas hugged his mother. Daniel hugged them both.
“Now I don't want us to ever think about him again okay,” Daniel said.
“I never want to think of anyone touching me but you, you have to make me forget that,” Carla said.
“Oh I will,” Daniel said.
“Dad! Mom!” Lucas said.
“Lucas,” Amy said.
“They're my parents, baby,” Lucas said.
“I know but still, after everything that has happened, let it be,” Amy said.
“Yes dear,” Lucas said.
“Now about you two,” Carla said.
“Carla,” Amy said.
“No, Amy, those babies need their parents together,” Carla said.
“We will be parents to them,” Amy said.
“Married?” Daniel asked.
“I still need time, that fake marriage license threw me for a loop and brought back old feelings that I had to push aside because I thought I was married,” Amy said.
“I don't know what the motive was behind all that but I know my son loves you,” Daniel said.
“And I love him too, but I also love Matthew, those feelings don't go away on their own, it takes time,” Amy said.
“Amy, we don't want our grandchildren to be illegitimate,” Carla said.
“Mom!” Lucas said.
“We want our grandchildren to be raised in a home with their parents together happily married,” Carla said.
“And if you force us to get married, it won't be happily married, we both would be miserable, give her time, Mom, please,” Lucas said.
“Please tell me you are okay with this,” Carla said.
“Mom, I love her and I want to support her choice, I will support her choice, I will not force her to marry me, I will not force her to do anything she does not want to do, she knows how I feel about her, she knows how Matthew feels about her, I will give her time and space she needs,” Lucas said.
“And where does she sleep?” Carla said.
“In the guest room next to my room,” Lucas said.
“Carla, listen to our son,” Daniel said.
“Fine,” Carla said. She hugged them and everyone left. Lucas sat there. Amy sat down next to him.
“Thank you, for doing that,” Amy said.
“I would do anything for you, Amy, I love you,” Lucas said. Her phone rang. She looked at it and looked at him.
“Hello Matt,” Amy said.
“Hey Amy, I guess you heard,” Matthew said.
“That you went to Europe for six moths, yep,” Amy said.
“I just thought it was best if I did, so you and Lucas could work things out and be the best parents to the babies,” Matthew said.
“So you know it's twins,” Amy said.
“Jack told me, I'm happy for you, I know I wanted you back, I really did, but while you were gone, I did some thinking and when I saw you sitting by Lucas's bedside at the hospital, it made my child more clear, I'm going to move on with my life, stay friends with you,” Matthew said.
“Really?” Amy asked.
“Yeah, your dad also told me about Lucas's uncle,” Matthew said.
“Yeah, that was a shock to all of us,” Amy said.
“Amy, I will always love you, be with Lucas, be happy, be a true family,” Matthew said.
“You sure about this?” Amy asked.
“Yes, Amy, it's the best thing for all of us,” Matthew said.
“I will always love you, you will always have a part of my heart,” Amy said.
“You have a part of mine as well, goodbye Amy,” Matthew said.
“Goodbye Matthew,” Amy said. She hung up and looked at Lucas. He took her hand.
“Baby what is it?” Lucas asked.
"Lucas, I'm all yours,” Amy said.
“What?” Lucas said.
“He let me go, he wants me to be with you, to be happy with you,” Amy said.
“Amy,” Lucas said.
“Make me yours forever, Lucas,” Amy said. He took her into his arms and kissed her deeply as he picked her up and carried her upstairs to the bedroom where they removed each other's clothes and they made love off and on throughout the afternoon and evening. He laid beside her and pulled her close and kissed her forehead.
“I love you baby,” Lucas said.
“I love you, I'm yours, forever,” Amy said.
“Forever ain't long enough, baby,” Lucas said.
“Can I have my ring back?” Amy asked.
“Yes baby, and I'll tell my mom to start planning the wedding,” Lucas said.
“I want it soon, I want to be your wife for real this time,” Amy said.
“You were my wife, we just didn't know it wasn't real, we both thought it was,” Lucas said.
“Yeah now we need to make it that way,” Amy said.
“Yes we do, baby, I can't wait,” Lucas said. He kissed her and moved down her body. He kissed her stomach which was starting to show a small bump.
“Hey little ones, you probably can't understand me yet, I'm your daddy, I can't wait for you two to come meet us, I will love you both forever, you two and your mom are everything to me,” Lucas said. He kissed her stomach again and moved up and kissed her deeply as he began making love to her once more. They fell asleep in each other's arms.

Chapter 27

Three weeks later, it was the day before the wedding. Amy stood there looking out at the backyard of Lucas's parents' estate watching all the finishing touches go up for the wedding.
“What do you think?” Carla asked.
“It's perfect,” Amy said. She felt arms wrap around her waist and a chin rest on her shoulder.
“My love,” Lucas said.
“My heart,” Amy said.
“How am I going to be able to sleep without you tonight,” Lucas said.
“You will make it, Lucas, it's just one night and then you will have forever,” Carla said.
“I know, I just can't wait,” Lucas said. His hands rested on her stomach. He began rubbing it.
“Babe?” Amy asked.
“I love you so much,” Lucas said.
“I love you too,” Amy said. She turned her head to him and he captured her lips with his in a deep kiss.
“Okay son, let's get going,” Daniel said.
“Dad!” Lucas said.
“Go on, I'll see you at the altar,” Amy said.
“I'll miss you,” Lucas said.
“I'll miss you too,” Amy said. He kissed her again and bent down and kissed her stomach.
“Bye little ones, be good for Mommy, okay, let her sleep,” Lucas said. He kissed her again before his father dragged him away. Carla hugged her.
“He will be fine,” Carla said.
“I know,” Amy said. They finished overseeing the final touches before heading in for the night.
“Are you going to be okay without Daniel?” Amy asked.
“I will be, it's only one night, we got forever,” Carla said. They ate dinner and went to shower in their rooms and went to sleep in their beds. The next day, Carla was helping Amy get ready for the wedding.
“Carla, you look beautiful, mother of the groom,” Amy said.
“Thank you honey, you are looking gorgeous,” Carla said.
“Thank you, this dress is one of Frank's designs, he's the fashion designer who works with the agency, also Jamie's boyfriend,” Amy said. There was a knock at the door. Carla opened it and saw Jack standing there. Amy stood up and faced her father. He smiled as a tear fell down his cheek.
“Sweetheart, you are a vision,” Jack said.
“Daddy,” Amy said. He gently hugged her. She kept her face away from his tux.
“I'm so happy for you, honey,” Jack said.
“I love you, Dad,” Amy said.
“I love you more, baby girl,” Jack said.
“Dad, you look handsome,” Amy said.
“Thank you honey,” Jack said.
“Is it time, Jack?” Carla asked.
“Yes it is,” Jack said. Carla hugged her and went out the door. Jack held out his arm and she hook her arm through his and they walked out.
“Ready for this, honey,” Jack said.
“Yes I am,” Amy said. They walked to the door of the backyard and waited until it was time. The music started and they walked down the aisle and she looked up and saw Lucas standing there. They reached the altar and Jack kissed her cheek and shook Lucas's hand.
“Take care of her and my grandbabies,” Jack said.
“I will,” Lucas said. Amy and Lucas faced the minister as he began the ceremony. They exchanged vows and rings. He pronounced them husband and wife.
“You may kiss the bride,” the minister said. Lucas cupped her face with his hands and kissed her tenderly as everyone stood up and clapped.
“I love you hubby,” Amy said.
“I love you wife,” Lucas said. He picked her up bridal stile and carried her up the aisle.
“I can walk you know,” Amy said.
“I know, but I wanted to carry you,” Lucas said. They went to the reception where they visited with everyone and hugged their family and had dinner and then cake and danced their first dance. Then he danced with his mother while she danced with her father. Then with Daniel. She tossed her bouquet and Ashley caught it. Hank smiled and went and got down on one knee and proposed to her.
“Yes!” Ashley said. Everyone cheered and smiled. Frank followed suit and got down on one knee in front of Jamie and proposed.
“Oh my gosh yes!” Jamie said. Amy hugged them while Lucas shook hands with the guys. Nick hugged Jamie and shook Frank's hand. He bro hugged Hank. Greg made his best man speech. Jamie made her maid of honor speech. Jack did a speech and he got offstage and proposed to Rachel.
“Yes!” Rachel aid. Amy hugged her father. As did JJ and Sam. They hugged Rachel.
“So should we call you Mom?” Amy asked.
“Amy,” Jack said.
“It's just a question,” Amy said.
“You guys can just call me Rachel,” Rachel said.
“You would be better than the person we called Mom,” Amy said.
“Yeah,” JJ said.
“You are better for our father than she was,” Sam said.
“I don't think she even loved him if she cheated,” JJ said.
“Oh god, what if we aren't Dad's kids,” Sam said.
“Oh god,” Amy said.
“What a day to bring that up, bro!” JJ said.
“Sorry, it just occurred to me!” Sam said.
“We will find out when I come home from the honeymoon,” Amy said.
“Let's go baby,” Lucas said. They left and went to the airport and got on his plane and it took off. He carried her to the bed and they laid down and he held her as they slept.

The plane landed and they got off the plane. Amy looked around and saw where they were.
“My goodness, baby,” Amy said.
“Like it?” Lucas asked.
“Love it, I love you,” Amy said.
“I love you baby,” Lucas said. They went to their hut and closed the door.
“I'll be back,” Amy said. She went into the bathroom and changed into the lingerie she got for the honeymoon night. She opened the door and came out and he looked up and saw her and his mouth dropped.
“Baby,” Lucas said.
“You like?” Amy asked.
“Love,” Lucas said. He got up and pulled her to him and kissed her deeply. They removed each other's clothes and laid on the bed and he kissed down her body and kissing her stomach.
“Hey little ones, Daddy loves you,” Lucas said. He continued kissing all over her body and they made love off and on throughout the night.
“I love you my queen,” Lucas said.
“I love you my king,” Amy said. They settled into each other's arms and went to sleep holding each other.
They spent a week swimming and making love. They headed home when it was time to get back. They got home and he carried her upstairs and laid her in bed and she went to sleep. He joined her after getting their bags in. The next morning she woke up and got up and got dressed. She went downstairs and ate breakfast.
“Morning sis,” Sam said.
“Morning sis,” JJ said.
“Morning guys,” Amy said.
“We will take you to work,” Sam said.
“All right let's go,” Amy said.
“Baby?” Lucas asked.
“Morning babe,” Amy said.
“You leaving without telling me,” Lucas said.
“I was letting you sleep,” Amy said.
“Never leave without telling me, okay,” Lucas said.
“Sorry babe,” Amy said. She kissed him and went out the door with her brothers and they went to the agency. She sat in her office cleaning her camera.
“Hey girl,” Jamie said.
“Welcome back,” Ashley said.
“Nice tan,” Jamie said.
“Thanks girls, I know, we went to the Maldives,” Amy said. Amy showed them the pictures she took.
“Beautiful,” Ashley said.
“I want to go there,” Jamie said.
“It's worth it,” Amy said.
“I've gotta call Frank,” Jamie said.
“I've got to call Hank,” Ashley said. They left the office and Amy went back to cleaning her camera.
“Morning sweetheart,” Jack said.
“Morning Dad,” Amy said.
“How was the honeymoon?” Jack asked.
“Amazing,” Amy said.
“Missed you around here,” Jack said.
“I missed being here,” Amy said.
“Okay Frank has a new collection and he's set up a photoshoot for it next week in Vermont,” Jack said.
“Okay I'll be ready, Lucas will probably want to go with me,” Amy said.
“He probably will, he loves you and wants to take care of you and the babies,” Jack said.
“Dad, I'm happy for you and Rachel,” Amy said.
“Thank you sweetheart,” Jack said.
“So what kind of collection is it?” Amy asked.
“Dresses for the fall season,” Jack said.
“That's why he wanted to do it in Vermont, because it's beautiful in the fall,” Amy said.
“Yes,” Jack said.
“Hello Mrs. Reigns,” Frank said.
“Hi Frank, heard about your new collection,” Amy said.
“It's going to be amazing,” Frank said.
“How are the wedding plans coming along?” Amy asked.
“Going good, after the shoot, we are going to get right deep into it,” Frank said.
“Jamie call you about the honeymoon?” Amy asked.
“Yes and tell your hubby I would like to speak to him about the arrangements he made for that,” Frank said.
“I'll be glad to share it with you,” Lucas said.
“Hey babe,” Amy said.
“Hey baby,” Lucas said. He came over and kissed her forehead. He went to talk with Frank.

Chapter 29

A week later, they were in Vermont. They checked into the place they were staying and got settled in. Morning sickness had hit Amy hard and she was resting in bed. Lucas laid with her.
“It's never been this bad,” Amy said.
“Oh baby, I wish there was something I could do,” Lucas said.
“Just be here with me is all I need,” Amy said.
“Always,” Lucas said.
“I hope I'm well enough to do the photoshoot,” Amy said.
“I'll be right there beside you with a bucket,” Lucas said.
“I just hope you can handle it,” Amy said.
“Through sickness and in health, baby, I love you, you never will have to go through this alone,” Lucas said.
“I love you so much,” Amy said.
“You are everything to me, you and our babies,” Lucas said. He rubbed her stomach and moved down and kissed it.
“Hey little ones, take it easy on your mom, she has a busy weekend ahead and needs to get work done, let her work please,” Lucas said. They went to sleep and woke up the next morning and got up and dressed and ready for the day. They got to the location of the shoot and Amy got her camera ready. She felt someone stand in front of her and she looked up and saw Nick standing there.
“Nick, why are you here?” Amy asked.
“He's here with me, Amy,” Stacy said.
“Oh, didn't know that, sorry,” Amy said.
“You should be, I will not let you take another guy from me,” Stacy said.
“I'm married to Lucas, Stacy, so don't you worry your pretty little head about it, besides, it's only a matter of time,” Amy said.
“What's that supposed to mean?” Stacy asked.
“I talked to Matthew, he said the real reason he took the job in Europe was to get away from you, you were too clingy, he couldn't take it anymore and had to get away from you, he pretended that he wanted me back to get you away but you still kept coming, so he talked with my dad and took the job in Europe to get away from you, so you see, he didn't want to get back with me, he knew it was over and we were better off as friends, he wanted to get away from you,” Amy said.
“You bitch!” Stacy said. She lounged for Amy but Nick grabbed her and held her back.
“Stacy, did you just try to attack my daughter,” Jack said.
“She deserves it!” Stacy said.
“You're fired, get the hell out of here before I call the cops,” Jack said.
“This isn't over, Amy, you better watch your back!” Stacy said.
“You touch her, you are done,” Lucas said.
“Let's go!” Nick said. He drags her off. Lucas sat beside her.
“You okay baby?” Lucas asked.
“I'm fine, she's insane, no wonder Matthew went to Europe, he needed to get away from her,” Amy said.
“I'm sorry about that, Amy, I should have seen it,” Nick said.
“How did you end up with that,” Amy said.
“Jamie set us up on a blind date,” Nick said.
“I'm sorry, bro, I didn't know she was that crazy,” Jamie said.
“We didn't know that she's why Matt left,” Ashley said.
“Jamie, no more blind dates, I'll find my own woman,” Nick said.
“Bro, there is one who would be good for you,” Jamie said.
“And who's that?” Nick asked.
“Hannah,” Amy said.
“Yes Amy?” Hannah said.
“Seeing anyone?” Amy asked.
“Not at the moment, it's been a year,” Hannah said.
“How would you like to go on a date with Nick?” Amy asked. Hannah looked at Nick who smiled at her. She smiled and nodded.
“Yes, I was jealous of Stacy,” Hannah said.
“No need for that, she's history, with him and the agency,” Amy said.
“When and what time?” Hannah asked.
“Tonight 7pm?” Nick asked.
“Perfect,” Hannah said.
“Nick, what did you do with Stacy?” Jack asked.
“Pushed her out the door and told Hank, Todd, and Greg to take care of her,” Nick said.
“It's done, prez,” Hank said.
“She won't be a problem anymore,” Todd said.
“Is she dead?” Hannah asked.
“We didn't have much choice,” Todd said.
“She tried to kill me,” Hanks aid.
“Oh baby!” Ashley said.
“She saw Todd's gun and grabbed it and pointed it at Hank, I pulled mine and fired and hit her in the head,” Greg said.
“After she fired at me, I ducked in the nick of time,” Hank said.
“Oh god!” Ashley said.
“She was crazy,” Hannah said.
“Any issues with cleanup?” Nick asked.
“The cops showed up but we explained what happened and Todd had his license to carry as did Greg and with the three of us saying what happened and sharing the same story, they called it self defense,” Hank said.
“Good, I didn't want you guys to get blamed for her craziness,” Nick said.
“So seven tonight Nick,” Hannah said.
“Seven pm sharp,” Nick said.
“Let's get going everyone!” Amy said.
“How you feeling baby?” Lucas asked.
“Good so far,” Amy said. Nick sat with Hank, Todd, Greg, and Lucas while Amy went to work after the models got into the clothing. Frank stood with Jack as they oversaw the shoot. After the shoot everyone packed up the stuff and went back to the inn. Amy laid down to rest while Lucas sat beside her checking things on his phone.
Three months later, Amy was enjoying her pregnancy. Lucas gave more responsibility to Greg and Kevin so he could be home more with her.
“Hey babe,” Amy said.
“Yes baby,” Lucas said.
“Jamie and Ashley want to have a gender reveal party,” Amy said.
“I thought we wanted to wait to know what they are when they are born,” Lucas said.
“I know, I told them that, but they said how would anyone know what to buy if no one know one knows the genders,” Amy said.
“Gender neutral items,” Lucas said.
“I told them that,” Amy said.
“They wouldn't go for it huh,” Lucas said.
“I put my foot down saying that the decision was yours and mine,” Amy said.
“That's right, these are our babies, not theirs,” Lucas said.
“Think we can do it?” Amy asked.
“We can do anything, baby,” Lucas said. They kissed and cuddled on the couch.

Chapter 30

Two months later, it was getting closer to the due date. It was Jack's wedding day.
“I look like a whale,” Amy said.
“Baby, stop, you are not a whale, you are carrying two babies inside you, our babies, you look beautiful as always, never say anything about being ugly or looking like a whale, you are carrying our children,” Lucas said.
“I love you so much,” Amy said.
“I love you too, I got the hospital bag in the car just in case,” Lucas said.
“I hope I don't have another false alarm again, I almost ruined Ashley and Hank's wedding, I don't want to ruin my dad's,” Amy said.
“You hear that, little ones, let Grandpa marry Grandma Rachel and wait until after everything is over,” Lucas said. They got into the car and went to the wedding. He got her settled in a seat and sat with her. They watched the ceremony. They went to the reception afterwards. Amy shared a dance with her father.
“I'm happy for you, Dad,” Amy said.
“Thank you sweetheart,” Jack said.
“Ouch!” Amy said. She grabbed her stomach. Jack held her close as he looked for Lucas.
“Lucas!” Jack said. Lucas ran over and took Amy in his arms. He helped her out to the car and they headed to the hospital.
“Oh god please hurry Lucas!” Amy said.
“I'm going as fast as I can, baby, just hold on,” Lucas said. She doubled over in pain and Lucas sped to the hospital and before they got there, they heard sirens.
“Oh god!” Amy said.
“Cops, I”m not stopping baby,” Lucas said. They arrived at the hospital with the police car pulling up behind them. Lucas got out and ran around to her side.
“Sir!” the cop said.
“I'm sorry I was speeding but my wife's in labor and in pain!” Lucas said.
“AHH!” Amy screamed. Lucas got her out and picked her up and ran into the hospital. The cop followed.
“Help! My wife's in labor with twins! She's in pain!” Lucas said. They got her in a wheelchair and took her to a room. Lucas went to follow but was stopped by the cop.
“Sir,” the cop said.
“My wife's in labor, I have to be with her, just write me a ticket, here's my license and insurance and registration, okay, just leave everything with the nurses when you are done, I have to go be with my wife please!” Lucas said. He ran down the hall to the room where Amy was and Dr. Teagan was there. Lucas stood beside her.
“Babe where were you?” Amy asked.
“The cop stopped me before I could follow, I told him to just write me a ticket for speeding and gave him my stuff and came here to be with you,” Lucas said.
“Oh Lucas,” Amy said.
“Sir,” the cop said.
“I'm in fucking labor here!” Amy said.
“Officer, she is almost ready to give birth, whatever it is can wait,” Dr. Teagan said.
“I just want to give Mr. Reigns his stuff back and there will be no ticket as there was good reason for speeding and there was no harm to anyone, congratulations and have a good night,” the cop said. Lucas took his stuff and the cop left. They got Amy ready for delivery.
“The babies are ready, Amy,” Dr. Teagan said. She nodded and Lucas held her hand as she started pushing. She continued until they heard a baby cry.
“It's a boy!” Dr. Teagan said.
“Our son,” Lucas said.
“Our prince,” Amy said. Lucas kissed her head as they cleaned him up and laid him on Amy's chest. Lucas gazed at his son.
“He's beautiful,” Lucas said.
“Ahh!” Amy said. They took the baby away and she pushed again. She continued until they heard the second cry.
“It's a girl!” Dr. Teagan said.
“Our daughter, our baby girl,” Lucas said.
“Our princess,” Amy said. They cleaned her up and laid her on Amy's chest and Lucas gazed at her.
“She's gorgeous,” Lucas said.
“I love you,” Amy said.
“I love you so much, all three of you,” Lucas said. They laid their son with their daughter on Amy and she held them both. Lucas gazed at his family. He kissed Amy and kissed his son and daughter's heads.
“My family,” Lucas said.
“Our family,” Amy said. An hour later, the babies were bundled up in a blanket and little hats and he took a pic and sent it to his parents and Jack.
“They are perfect,” Lucas said.
“I want Jamie and Frank and Ashley and Hank to be godparents,” Amy said.
“Okay baby,” Lucas said. An hour later, they let everyone come see the babies. Carla was holding their daughter while Jack held their son.
“What are their names?” Rachel asked.
“Lucas Michael Reigns Jr,” Lucas said.
“Rose Marie Reigns,” Amy said.
“That's so beautiful,” Carla said.
“He's a handsome little guy,” Daniel said.
“And she's beautiful,” Jamie said.
“Ashley, Jamie, Frank, and Hank, we want to know if you guys would be godparents to them,” Amy said.
“Yes absolutely!” Ashley said.
“Yes!” Jamie said.
“Yes,” Hank said.
“Yes,” Frank said. They all continued fussing over the babies. Lucas sat beside her on the bed.
“I love you Mom,” Lucas said.
“I love you Dad,” Amy said. They watched their family fuss over the babies and they knew the twins would be well loved.

The End!
