The Girl He Craves novel (Sophie and Aiden) novel Chapter 174

Sophie's pov

'Who was it?" I questioned when Aiden ends the call and pushes the phone back into his pocket.

'No one important, just a damn reporter. They asked for information about my arrest." His jaw popped when he responded stiffly.

I sighed, resting my head on his shoulder. 'At least they haven't asked you about your alleged marriage contract to Lillian.’ I grumble bitterly.

He kissed my head. "Don't worry about that stupid fraudulent contract baby, I promise to fix it. And then we'll get married." He squeezed my hand, kissing my head again.

*1 can't wait to see you walk down the aisle. I've been dreaming about this day since I first set my eyes on you back then." He brushes his fingers through my hair tenderly.

We were so calm here you'd think that Aiden had not just come back from a fight with Sergio and he had not just been out of jail.

When we were in each other's arms, I realized that nothing truly mattered. There was always some kind of peace between us.

Something that could ease me.

With another kiss on my head, I fell asleep in his hold.

I woke up when Aiden breathed beside my ear lightly. "We're home baby."

It takes me a second to realize I am already in his arms and we were already in front of the door.

I blinked.

I didn't even feel when he put me in his arms.....

’Was I sleeping for long?" I questioned embarrassed.

With all that went on today, I had the audacity to fall asleep.......

Aiden smiled down at me warmly, kissing the tip of my nose. "I love hearing your light snores.’ He teased. "But you do weigh a ton." He chuckled.

I glared at him playfully. ’ Put me down."

He chuckles and set me back down on my feet.

He fixes my hair, peering down at me in adoration. ‘I'll make sure I make him pay for forcefully kissing you Soph."

’I know you will Aiden. But maybe it's time you don't take these things on your own and involve the cops."

He tucks some stands behind my ear, sighing. "Cops won't help much if we have no evidence over these bastards. Sergio is also a part of this so it won't be easy to get the cops on our side, unless we take these fuckers down on our own."

He looks away, his eyes far. "I'll have a private investigator search into the Muralo's, their business can't be as clean as they're portraying. There was a rumor once-

The door opens, cutting Aiden off.

"Son!" Meredith threw her arms around Aiden, making him stumble a little.

’I'm so glad Sophie managed to get you out!" She cried kissing all over his face.

I bit my lip to stop from giggling at Aiden's red embarrassed face. "Mom." He whined eyes pinched and face tight with a wince.

'Meredith give the boy some room to breathe." Aiden's dad chuckled, in his hold is Ashton whose eyes brightened when he saw me.

Meredith argued. 'I gave birth to this face I have every right to kiss it whenever I want. ■

Ashton hands shot out, his finger squeezing with a motion to tell me to take him. I smiled my heart warming.

’Did you miss me baby?’ I cooed as I pried him from Aiden's dad’s hold.

’He was such a good boy. You two are raising him right.* Mr. Xavier complimented.
