100 Back To The City
Tia
I could not believe the relief I felt seeing that the man I had just punched was my husband. I could not stop crying, and he came to hold me.
“Why did you stay so long,” I wept uncontrollably. I was relieved that he was back. I had packed my bags, ready to go to Santa Braee to find him. I did not care if anything would happen to me there; I just wanted to find him.
“Tia,” He breathed my name and kissed the side of my head. He placed his hand on my tummy and rubbed lightly; he felt the tiny bump.

“I am so sorry,” Luke said with a shaky voice. “Forgive me,” he pleaded, but I had forgiven him before he even asked. To be sure I wasn‘t dreaming, I breathed in his scent, and we kissed. It was mild and gentle, and soon it became hungry, needy, and grateful. Three weeks without him felt like forever. My body needed his touch, and I needed to assure myself he was alive and back. I needed the assurance badly. Waiting and not knowing had scarred me.

“Tia,” He breathed my name, and I tugged at his dirty shirt. I took in his scent, and he took off the shirt that I was wearing and kissed my neck sweetly. I moaned, feeling the wetness between my legs. I was shaking like a leaf anticipating what he would do to me. I wanted him
so badly.

He took off what was left of his clothes and laid me on the bed. My heart was thumping fast. He travelled with his kisses and sucked on my breast. I savoured the feeling enjoying every moment of it. It had been three weeks, but it felt like three years. My nipples were hard and ready. Getting them to their peaks, he left them alone and rubbed them between his thumb and index finger. I felt so good. He travelled with his lips to my bump and kissed it. I was glad he was home. I would not be going through the pregnancy alone. I would not be abandoned; I would not be pitied.

I moaned because I anticipated more and my nerves were all over the place, crumbling. Luke spread my legs wide and moved with his tongue to my clit. Sucking on the nerve bundle, I came immediately. I wanted to salvage the feeling, but I could not hold it. I came shaking and moaning, glad he had returned
home to me. I was pleased that he was the one touching me and was with me. I dug my fingers into the sheets, arching my back and pushing myself off the bed before collapsing back down and shaking from the over sensitivity of my clit. Luke understood my body and knew exactly what I wanted and where I wanted to be touched.
.
“I am sorry I stayed long, darling,” he said with his low, gruff and husky voice, positioning himself between my legs, but I was too dizzy to process his words. My pussy clenched uncontrollably, and I wanted him inside me. He gently placed himself in and began to pump. It felt so sweet and new. It felt so amazing that I did not know what to do. He pumped, pumped, and poured into me, but I knew he wasn‘t done. He made me turn on my hands and knees and placed his finger inside me, massaging my walls. I moaned and pushed my pussy against his finger, wanting him to go deeper. “Luke, deeper,” I moaned, and he pumped hard and fast, adding more fingers until they were three inside me. I moaned, and he growled. I knew he was waiting to get aroused. When he was hard, he pushed his cock in and began to pump. He pumped viciously like a man that had been sex starved for ages.
“Your pussy is so fucking sweet, Tia. It is softer than it used to be,” He said, and I knew the pregnancy had changed me. From the way, he was growling and groaning. I knew it was getting to his head just as it was getting to mine. Soon I came, and he poured into me at the same time. It was so intense that I moaned very loudly. He was back.
Luke led me into the shower for us to clean up, and to my surprise, he took me there too. We finally returned to the room and lay down. Placing my head on his chest, I took in his scent as we drifted back to sleep.
I woke up on an empty bed and began to panic. Had I been dreaming? Did he come home?
“Luke! Luke!” I called out. I was afraid that I was dreaming. Panicking and shaking, he rushed out of the bathroom and came to hold me. I held him tight and began to cry. The event had scarred me; it would
take a while before I finally let him out of my sight.
“I am here. I am home,” he said and held me tight, kissing the top of my head.

“I am so sorry, Tia. I am so sorry I put you through this. I really am. It wasn‘t my intention to be silent or stay that long,” he said, and I held him tight, relief washing over me. He held me for a bit, and then we showered together. While dressing up, he looked at my bag and passport where I had kept them. “Going somewhere?” He asked me, and I looked at him, and it clicked.
.
“No way, Tia. You were planning on coming to look for me?” He said, and I looked away. He was the missing one; he did not know how it felt, not knowing where he really was or how he was doing. I thought I would die. This was the best way to ease my mind.
“I came home every night Luke, counting the days, hoping you will return. I called Kirk, yet no word from you. When your father requested Caleb take over, I saw it as an opportunity to come to find you.” I confessed to him, and he came to hold me.
“Don‘t put your life at risk for me again, Tia. Please don‘t.” He pleaded with me.

“Don‘t ask me to live without you, Luke. Don‘t put me in that situation again.” I replied because that was the truth. I could not live without him. However strong I may be, he was my soulmate, and if he did not come home to me, I would have gone to search for him.
“What happened there anyway. Why did you stay long?” I asked him, and he sighed and went to sit at the foot of the bed. Luke narrated his entire ordeal, and when he told me how close they were to dying, I was grateful to the goddess for sparing him.
“So you mean we are still blind where Luis is concerned?” I asked him, and he shook his head. Although he had not said it yet, my heart did somersaults. It sucked walking blind at least now We would have something to work with.
“For starters, he owns that hotel and never stayed there. He only wanted me to come looking for him so they could finish me off. If I went as me, I would have been dead. I also learned he has security situated on the Island to resist an attack in case there should be any. He promised the Alpha of Santa Braee bitumen. So Santa Braee is helping him with his revenge plan.” He explained to me, stood up and began to pace. “Justin the pimp claims Luis is preparing for war; we do not know how or where he will strike, but we need to build an army to resist and defeat him.” He said and then looked at me with a grin. Bringing out his phone, he handed me a picture.
“That is Luis Moon,” He said, and I was shocked. The man was just as old as Alpha Aesop and handsome too. He had green, evil–looking eyes and was clean–shaven with a pale skin tone. “Justin says he wears a lot of disguises, but that is what he looks like. He is also an Alpha with an underground pack.” Luke explained, and I was surprised. “Did you learn anything else?” I asked him, and he nodded.
“Luis is here on Woodclaw island,” he said, and I wasn‘t surprised because it was apparent the man wanted to be at the top. The only way he could mess the Moon family up is to cripple us financially and weaken our military support. He had done those things already. He was bound to swoop in for the kill.
“Caleb is now in charge, you know. Your father asked me to step down because of the baby,” I explained to Luke, and he nodded.
“I know. Caleb knows I am back. He is happy,” Luke said, laughing, “He detests being Alpha,” I laughed, remembering how Caleb always complained while at the academy. He never really wanted to be Alpha.
“Have you heard of the poisoning?” I asked him, and he shook his head. “Caleb did not tell me about it, but he told me his sister has bailed out on us. I wouldn‘t blame the woman. Her mother would likely die, and her father is our enemy. She might think we would throw her out. But she didn‘t have to leave. As angry as father is, he loves Caleb and wouldn‘t have thrown his sister out,” he said, and I nodded.
“Did Caleb tell you that Stacy did not write the letters, but she wrote the checks?” I asked him, and he frowned and shook his head. I guess Luke and Caleb did not speak for long because those were vital information he missed, however trivial they might seem.
“No, he didn‘t. How did you find out?” He asked me.
“Your father asked for the notes and immediately recognised it wasn‘t her handwriting. The person tried to make it look like hers, but it wasnt good enough to fool him.” I said, and he sat down beside me.
“That is eerie, Tia. Is there a possibility she didn‘t attempt suicide?” he asked, and I sighed.
“We all suspect that but she did say goodbye to us weirdly,” I pointed out, and he nodded. “Yeah. She did,” he agreed. “Well, only Stacy knows what really happened.” I said and remembered I was still yet to tell him about the dead staff, ” About the poisoning. Someone was poisoned two nights ago, and his body was found yesterday afternoon. I was called to the staff quarters of the right–wing to see the body. It was Stephen Mace. He was nineteen years old. He just started working here recently. I wondered what or who he got himself mixed up with to warrant such a gruesome death.” I said, and Luke sighed. It was clear the news of the poisoning bothered him too. Living in a house where two people had allegedly been poisoned was scary, mainly because we did not cook our meals. Certain things needed to change in the meantime until the conflicts were resolved and mysteries solved.
“A lot needs to be solved, but we must prepare for battle. I need to know the state of the Military and our arsenal to proceed.” Luke finally said after a few seconds of silence, pondering over the news of the poisoning.
‘‘What about Luis?” I asked, and he placed his hand on his forehead as if something had skipped his mind. “We have two of his people working on our side for a change. One we got from Santa Braee, and the other was picked up an hour ago. We want to trace his underground pack. We have been on the defence for a long. It is time to be on the offence and even the playing field.” He said to me, and I smiled at him. He looked at my tiny bulge and smiled, then placed his hand on it.

“Showing,” he said, and I smiled at him. He kissed my neck sweetly and kissed my lips gently. “I will never leave you again, Tia. I promise you, he said, and I wanted us to stay indoors that day. Somehow I knew that was precisely what would happen. Three weeks apart wasn‘t easy, however small it may seem to others. It was a long time for us because we were rarely apart. We needed to make up for a lost time.
