Chapter 156
As we enter the room, Eros, his brother, sister and stepfather are sitting around the large seating area. Eros is staring down at the glass in his
hand and looks anxious.
His mum isn’t scary, I can understand her. Many would defend themselves over and over, but I didn’t. I defended Eros, which seemed
to make her realise I do care for him.
As we get closer his head raises and he looks at me, I smile and sit next to him. His eyes go to his mum.
“Eros, calm down. She’s perfectly fine and a wonderful woman,” his mum smiles, and everyone stares at her.
“A wonderful woman? Hell, Pauline worked in a children’s home, and you only had bad things to say about her,” John laughs.
“That is because she may be selfless at work, but in every other aspect of her life she was selfish and everything was about her, the job makes no difference John, not if the woman isn’t nice,” she argues and he
closes his mouth.
Eros’s head leans down, and he hides his face in my neck. “Don’t leave with her again,” he warns, and I smile.

“Eros, she is a wonderful woman. She didn’t even try to scare me away from you. Stop worrying.” I say. He looks at me with a shocked expression before turning to her and smiles back.
“If in a week I see you on the cover of the next business magazine with any other woman that isn’t Alexis, it will be you running Eros. Don’t mess this up,” she states, and he laughs. “Now, where are we sleeping?” She looks at him.
“You can all take the usual rooms you have when you come around. Just be aware that Clara is at that side as well,” Eros warns.
“Whose Clara? Is she single?” John asks, and my eyes widen. Eros glares across at him.
“You stay the fuck away from her.” Eros shouts, and John laughs.
“You defended her pretty quickly there, little bro,” John laughs.
“John, be quiet and behave. If you happen to see Clara, keep away from the girl. Do you hear me?” His mum glares at him.
“It was a joke, fuck, anyone would think I actually made a move with how you’re all acting,” he laughs. “I wouldn’t anyway, there’s a reason I agreed to visit, I proposed to Rosy. Now, before you mention not knowing her, that’s because I purposely didn’t introduce her until I knew she wouldn’t run from Mother,” he looks towards her, and we laugh.

Chapter 156
She’s only protective, but I can see why Eros and John are always. single. She fights for them and doesn’t let just any woman in. The lift opens, and I turn to see Clara walking in. She looks happy. I watch as she stops, stares around us, and becomes anxious.
“It’s fine. Clara, come sit. This is my mum, Gail, sister Kacy, brother John and stepdad William,” Eros explains, and Clara sits next to me.
We sit talking for an hour before they go to bed, and Eros guides me to our room. I smile at him, but he still seems on edge.
“You dated a lot of women, Eros. How are you not used to it by now?” I asked, assuming he would be used to his mother doing this.
“You realise we’ve never had our hearts broken by anyone we ever dated. It was always our mother who did.” he states as he begins to remove his clothes, and I smile, watching him.
“She is protective.” I reply.
“Protective? She runs away everyone we date, why do you think John kept his new woman hidden for months?” He laughs and climbs onto. me, I lie back, and he stays above me.
“She wants you to have a partner who fights for you, Eros. The fact they ran screams they wouldn’t fight for you. I’ve not run, and I’m not running.” I argue.
“Which is fucking amazing. I was so sure you would come out of that
