The CEO's Return (Tracy and Alex) novel Chapter 38

Tracy

I woke up the next morning in Alex's arms, memories from last night rushed in and I blushed profusely, I tried to roll out of his arms but he held on tighter.

"Stay." He whispered

"It's morning already," I said my voice sounding hoarse

"I know, just stay."

"The kids would wake up soon."

"I know, but they are not awake yet."

"Okay."

"Are you okay?"

"What do you mean?"

"Your voice, I mean you were kind of making lots of loud noises last night, and now your voice sounds hoarse." He said and I blushed

"I told you to be gentle, but you were not exactly gentle."

"Yeah, I noticed, I tried covering your mouth so you won't wake the kids but you bit me." He said raising his hand to show me a red spot on his palm.

"I'm sorry."

"It's okay, I kind of like it." He said kissing one of my hands.

"Okay, I need to get up, the kids would wake up soon," I told him and he frowned.

"Morning kiss?" He asked and I gave him a loud smack on the lips, he grinned then released me.

I stood up then sat back down because my body ached

"Tracy, are you okay?" He asked sitting up quickly

"No, I'm sore all over," I said, the frown on his face fell off and he was grinning.

"You are proud of yourself aren't you?"

"Yes, I am."

I shook my head then stood up again, my leg wobbled but I managed to stand up straight and get into the bathroom, I took my bath, tied a towel around my body and another one on my head before coming out of the bathroom.

"Wow!, Tracy come back to bed let me tell you some things." Alex said patting the space beside him."

"No thanks," I said then hurried out before he could convince me.

I dressed in the room I was sleeping in before, then I went to the kids' room to help them take their baths, Alex was out of our room and in the kids' room before I finished helping them take their baths.

I left him to dress them up while I started making breakfast, we all ate breakfast when I finished then Alex helped me with the dishes, we joined the kids in the sitting room when we finished doing the dishes.

"Can we play with our iPad?" Michelle asked and I nodded, they rushed upstairs to get their iPads.

The moment the kids entered the room, Alex started kissing me, he started from my neck, then he captured my lips, I was sitting right beside him but he pulled me closer, when I heard the doorknob turning I knew the kids were coming so I pushed him gently and he stopped kissing me.

"What was that for?" I mouthed

"For baby three." He mouthed right back and I blushed, he is really serious about baby three, because I remember him mentioning it when he was at the hospital.

The kids played with their iPad and Alex held my hand in his.

"You said you are going to call your mum and your sister." I reminded him and he nodded

"I'd call them later."

"No, call them now, you might forget later," I said and he nodded, he called them and promised them we would be coming over to visit them in New York soon, he received another call before coming to sit beside me on the sofa.

"James would be here soon, he's bringing the new guards."

"Oh, that's nice," I said and he nodded.

"So, about the bunk bed for the kid's room."

"Yes?"

"I'm thinking we should just let them have their room? You know?, Then we would let them choose the theme for their rooms." He said and I nodded

"That is a good idea."

"Good."

We chatted about random things then we heard a knock on the door, I knew immediately that it was James, he is the only one allowed to come in without calling us, I went to the door and opened it to let him in.

"Tracy!, How are you doing?" He asked coming in without grocery bags

"I'm fine thank you, how are you?."

"I'm good, here, this is for you." He said handing me the grocery bags.

"Oh, you didn't have to bother," I said but he waved it off, I went to drop the groceries in the kitchen while James exchanged greetings with Alex and the kids.

"The new guards are outside, and I'll like you guys to see them." He said and we nodded.

We all followed him out to meet the new guards who introduced themselves to us, there was now a total of fifteen guards in the house.

We all went back into the house, I served everyone cookies and juice after everyone finished the cookies and juice, the kids went back to playing with their iPad while Alex and James talked about real estate.

I tried to stand up from beside Alex, but he held my hand tight, I looked at him and he looked back at me then shook his head.

"Look at the two of you acting like newly wedded couples, heaven help my single heart because it can't relate," James said and we laughed.

He updated us on the complaint he filed at the police station, he told us about how easy it would be for Nora to be arrested if she is caught in the act.

There was a knock on the door, and I went to check who it is, I opened the door seeing it was one of the guards.

"Is anything wrong?"

"No ma'am, a package arrived for you very early this morning, but you were asleep so we didn't call you to avoid disturbing you." He said handing me a white package, I thanked him then he left.

"Did you order something?" I asked Alex and he shook his head

"I don't remember ordering anything, except clothes for the kids and that won't arrive for another one week." He said

"I don't remember ordering anything too."

I opened the package and I was so shocked by what was inside that my scream filled the air.
