The Girl He Craves novel (Sophie and Aiden) novel Chapter 122

Sophie’s pov

We continued to eat breakfast only for a few minutes later for his phone to start ringing again.

This time Aiden grunted a low curse which made me shoot

him an angry dagger. He winces and pulls out his phone while avoiding my angry gaze.

“What?” He barked.

He stays silent for a few but then his eyes began to swirl with that storm I thought he had gotten rid of.

I shiver, feeling sorry for the person on the other line.

“Fine. I’ll be there in a few.” He hissed angrily and ends the

call.

My stomach drops a little with disappointment at his words but then I realized I shouldn’t be. He was after all the boss and should always be present at the workplace.

Aiden looks at me apologetically. “I’m sorry mama bear, there’s a bit of trouble at the office I need to see to. I promise to get back as soon as possible. Do you mind waiting for me here baby?”

His eyes softened considerably when his focus was on me. Gone was the storm, but irritation still swirled through his blue pools.

He looked to hold a bit fear that I would say no.

Which was a bit mindblowing that he truly wanted to spend time with Ash and I so much.

I nod. “Okay. I’ll call the girls to let them know I won’t be coming today.”

A grin smeared on his face, one that had my stomach twisting with tiny wild butterflies.

“Spend the night too.” His bottom lip draws between his teeth and he bites down on the plump flesh.

I bit the inside of my bottom lip. “I don’t know Aiden…” I drawled.

We were already moving so quickly and I would be lying if I’ didn’t feel a bit scared that this won’t work out with the speed we were going at.

Aiden’s eyes dimmed a bit but he still held that warm soft tone when he utters. “I want us to be a family Soph. You, Ashton and me. I want us to live together too.”

His eyes fall on my stomach area. “I want to be there for you this time around. Every step of the way. I don’t want to miss a single thing.”

I chewed on my lips.

“Aiden. What if-

“If you’re going to say what if this doesn’t work out, don’t. This will work out Sophie. I’ve been dreaming about you for years, and now that I finally got you. I will do everything and I mean everything in my power to make sure that I keep you.” He promised, his eyes portraying such.

My heart thuds loudly.

There is no reason for me to not believe him, especially with the way his eyes portrayed such honesty.

Eyes were the windows of his soul, and if it showed so much honesty then who am I to say it’s false?

“Okay,” I breathed out, blushing under his heavy stare.

He rose to his feet, holding Ash and approached me. He places Ash on my lap and then leaned down to give me a chaste sweet peck on my lips.

“I love you Soph. And I’m going to repeat those words for the rest of my life.” He murmurs.

Aiden’s pov

My stomach was heavy with regret for coming to Harrington.co instead of staying with my little family.

Hell, I rather stay at the penthouse the entire week with Sophie and Aiden instead of coming back here.

Those two….they brought me more pleasure and sanity than that damn business Sergio forced me into.

And sure money made the world go round but I didn’t lie to Sophie when I said they meant more to me than paper.
