Lily took a long bathe and when she went back to the bedroom, she was relieved to find that Roman wasn't there. She didn't think she could face him now after what had happened between them. What had she even been thinking in the first place? Fucking him?
She changed into a pair of warm pyjamas and hit the bed, she would go to work as early as possible to avoid him the best she could.
*
Lily's dreams of going to work early were shattered when she woke up to Roman dressing up. His body was silhouetted so she knew it was still early morning hours. The lights were out except for a few night bulbs.
He was doing the buttons on his shirt when she sat up with a stretch.
"You are going to work with me." He said, not turning around to look at her. He must have sensed her movement and figured she was awake.
"What?" Lily frowned, breaking her yawn off.
"You are going to work with me." He repeated, tucking his blue shirt into his pants and s

Roman held her so tight, she began to feel choked but that did not take half of her worries away. She kept shaking him as if her efforts would bring him to wake up but it didn't."Help!" She yelled, thinking she sounded dramatic. But then, what if he wasn't actually sleeping and was having trouble waking up because of an underlying health condition? The thought of it made her even more determined and she called in a louder voice, "help, somebody!"Suddenly, he snapped his eyes open and sprang up.He turned to look at Lily still breathing heavily."Are you okay?" She expressed her concerns. Her face was twitched into fear and her breathing pattern was odd."Should I get you some water or something to drink?" She wondered, attempting to get up and do just that but he held her hand to stop her movements and then he pulled her into a tight hug."Please, don't go." He muttered under his breath.Lily nodded again at his shoulder and p

Kim stepped out of the car to the feeling of warm air. She closed her eyes and inhaled the beautiful scent that accompanied their arrival."Don't you think you are filming too much?" Adrian pointed out, coming down after her.She set her phone down and shrugged her shoulders. She had no interest in having any conversation with this man especially after his behaviour last night and so she just proceeded to meet the rest of the family where they were alighting from their cars. "Coming from someone whose sister films everyday of her life for millions of strangers to see." She muttered.She narrowed her eyes and folded her hands across her chest. "Where's Roman's ride?"The attendants were offloading their luggage from the truck on the other hand.Fred was in a vintage shirt and a pair of shorts. He took his sunglasses off as if that would help him see much better and looked around, noticing for the first time that his son's car was actually nowhere to

As soon as Kim announced that she had seen them, the rest of the family that had already suspected they would be in the tent and had been trailing in the same direction came to see for themselves and they all widened their eyes.Lily and Roman had not been expecting the sudden intervention and so they remained intertwined for a moment.Kim was the only one who didn't look away.Fred cleared his throat, his back against them, "we were looking for you two."Lily wanted the ground to swallow her. The family had just seen them both naked and fucking. Roman pulled out, not seeming to care."Do you have warm clothes, ours are soaked." He raised his eyebrows at Kim and frowned when he realised her eyes were fixed on his cock. She met his gaze and eventually looked away with a smirk on her face."We have in the car..." Adrian responded."How did you find us? We tried to contact you." Roman said as they both got into their we

Lily gasped in shock.She thought she had heard him wrongly. The features of the boy in the image started to make sense to her since she had wondered why he seemed so familiar in the first place."Girlfriend?" She swallowed, surprisingly losing her voice to a crack.Roman looked like he was shocked he had said his thoughts out loud. With a sigh, he lowered his voice and put the picture back into the book and stuffed his hands in his pocket. "Was.""You don't have to lie to me." She said, unable to hide the hurt that flashed through her voice.'she's dead.' He said like it was nothing."Oh." Lily blurted and felt her heart warm instantly. "I'm so sorry." She sighed. She knew she was supposed to feel sad but a part of her felt relief that this woman in question was not a part of his life anymore."What happened?" She wondered"I don't want to talk about it " he said, putting the book away. Now that his brain cells had

Lily stopped smiling when she noticed her husband's glare. Not knowing what to say, she forced a smile, "so we will catch you around later?""Oh you will." He had his eyes fixed on Roman as he said the words.Lily held Roman's hand and pulled him forward so they could head to their destination."You don't seem to like Flynn very much." She pointed out."Stay away from him, he's a fucking bastard." Roman spat out, hatred laced through his voice."Why?" Lily couldn't hold back from asking."He's the bad egg. He's with mom." He simplified his response."So why is he here then?""Emily is still in touch with him and thinks he is still family no matter what. Of course, she would invite him." He shook his head, "let's not talk about him, tell me about you. I don't really know stuff about you." He stuffed his hands into his pockets, changing the topic.Lily thought there was more to the story but she didn't pu

Lily had no idea what this feeling she had was but she knew she wasn't feeling good.She hid away from sight, not wanting to be spotted and not wanting to see what they were doing anymore.She hurried towards the elevator, ignoring Louise's calls for her and leaving the building as quick as possible.It had been a bad idea to stop by in the first place but then it was a good thing to know her place in his life now, whatever feelings of attachment she had been having, it was going to break off now.*Roman closed his laptop. It was time for him to head back home and for some reason, he was looking forward to it today.

Lily woke up with a headache and sat up after a moment of trying to figure out the events from the night before. The room was still empty and it was already bright outside.She was about to get out of bed when the bedroom door came open and Roman walked in with a breakfast tray.He set it on the bed beside her and sat next to it."What's this for?" Lily raised an eyebrow and memories from last night flooded her head. She buried her face between her palms in embarrassment and shook her head."What? You don't like it?" He wondered.She decided it would be best not to bring it up and so she offered a weak smile, "it's not that. Thank you for the meal." She said, looking at the pancakes that were inviting.She picked a piece and looked at anything b

Before Roman could get to him, Flynn had raised his hands above his head in defeat, moving away from Lily as quickly as possible but did nothing to stop Roman from taking action. He had obvious fear in his eyes and regret filled every fibre of his being.He grabbed his brother's collar and pinned him to the wall before throwing hard blows against his head.Lily threw her hands over her mouth and gasped. "Oh my God!"It wasn't long before Flynn started to bleed. He looked like the type of guy that could beat anyone down but he had nothing on Roman, especially while he was so angered.It was when Roman began to furiously bang his head against the wall that Lily knew it was time to stop him."You fucking cunt." Roman bellowed, hitting Flynn's head against the wall on every syllable as he spoke. "You don't know your limits any more!""Roman stop!" Lily cried, trying her best to stop him but keeping her distance to avoid being hit with his
