EPILOGUE Evie

Two And A Half Years Later

“The solar system!” I nodded appreciatively at Jason, the green-eyed boy in front of the class.

Indeed, today’s lesson was about the solar system and instead of just teaching, I was incorporating movement and creativity for fun learning and engagement.

The large classroom was sectioned into different stations, each a representation of the nine planets.

The first was the sun. Large, yellow foam circles were used to depict that.

The next was Mercury. Construction paper planets and colorful pipe cleaners orbited a mini model of the sun.

All the planets followed each other like that.

I made sure to have all their attention before walking to a random planet.

“Who can tell me what this is?”

This time, there was a delay in response. I let my eyes scan over the expanse of students. No one knew?

We’d done this before— solar system— this was the practical class, and honestly, I was proud of how good they’d been doing.

“Anyone?” I made sure to keep my voice warm and soft.

“Venus?” I recognized the girl who talked as Rosemary.

Glancing at the giant red ball, I glanced back at her.

“That is incorrect, Rose-Mary.”

She instantly looked sad, and I quickly walked up to her to pat her shoulders.

“It”s alright, Rosy. Just listen more, and you”ll get other ones.”

Someone yelled from behind. “Venus!”

A small smile tilted my face. Even if Rose-Mary had been incorrect I still was proud of myself.

My students were more than average. Learning disabilities, developmental delays, ADHD, autism, and any other developmental disabilities you could think of my third graders were a mix of it.

Each day I taught them amounted to progress— sometimes fast, unbelievable progress.

The class ended, and time passed as usual until it was time to go home. I watched them all leave one by one until I was left alone in the classroom.

After giving birth to Nathaniel, our son, I took some time to take care of him before Alice, the nanny, took over.

Then, I continued relentlessly pursuing my dreams in the school where I’d been carrying out my volunteering experience for over a year and a half.

Three months later, I was here— in the midst of the very academy I’d wished to be. I had achieved my dream and Mom’s dream of working in the prestigious Everest Academy.

I didn”t know when a tear slipped down my cheeks. This was slowly becoming a usual occurrence— me reminiscing on how I’d finally achieved all I wanted to be— followed by tears.

I didn”t blame myself. Anyone in my shoes would be moved to tears. I”d come this far…

I wasn’t the only one that had come far. Ethan’s company was doing well, he kept receiving multi-billion-dollar deals, and Dad’s carpentry business had scaled up significantly in the past few years.

He now had another branch in New York and was looking to open more branches.

His relationship with Ethan had completely evolved. The breakthrough came when Dad held our son with tears of joy in his eyes.

Releasing a sigh, I glanced at the wall clock on a corner of the wall. It was almost time to go home. Today was one of those days where my husband came to pick me up. A few more minutes passed, and I received a call.

“I”m here, honey.” His voice sounded a bit deeper.

I packed my bags and headed out of the classroom. I greeted a few teachers on my way out before I reached outside.

There was a bit of hurry in my steps as I made my way towards the sleek, black Mercedes that waited for me.

I furrowed my brows. This seemed new. Had he recently bought another one? I was starting to lose track of his collection of cars.

I opened the car and entered into the passenger”s seat. I was instantly attacked with kisses over my face.

I grinned. It was one interesting part that I looked forward to on days he came to pick me up.

Slowly his lips landed on mine. When I saw that his lips were a little too lingering, I pulled back.

A quickie in front of a school wasn”t something I wanted now.

“How are you?” I stared at his face. Still as handsome as ever and enough to incite everything good in my belly.

He grunted with an eye roll.

I chuckled, “Oh, come on. Don”t be sassy now. We still have to pick up the kids from school.”

My words only earned me another grunt, to which I laughed.

“How was your day?” He asked after a while.

I proceeded to tell him about my day until there was nothing left to say.

I asked him the same, and he told me all about how his day went, which consisted mostly of coffee, and signing deals.

I sighed into the plush leather. I loved today. I loved days like this when Ethan came to pick me up after work, then we went to pick up the children from their after-school programs.

The rest of the ride was filled with small talk about our day.

After a few minutes, he pulled up into the parking lot of the school.

I climbed out and walked in to pick up my kids. While Sophie was engaged in coding games that introduced basic programming concepts ?I know, little girl’s taking after her dad? Nathaniel was engaged in preschool activities like music or simple arts and crafts.

“Mommy!” Sophie squealed when she saw me. She hugged me tightly before we left to get her brother from preschool.

“Mom!” Nathaniel brimmed excitedly, wrapping his arms around me.

I carried him in a hug and held Sophie’s hand as we made our way towards the car.

Sophie’s rants and Nathaniel”s were also another interesting part of my day.

I listened to her talk about how she answered questions and her little tea about a certain colleague.

“Daddy!” They both squealed when they entered the car.

“How are my babies today?”

“Daddy, do you know my teacher asked five math questions today and I answered all?”

Before Ethan could reply, Nathaniel imitated wobbly. It earned him a laugh from all of us. He’d been doing that recently, trying to imitate his big sister.

“Good job, baby,” Ethan replied to Sophie, revving out of the lot.

Sophie kept talking until we reached the mansion.

Alice took over from there, freshening them up and watching over them.

I smiled slightly at the thought. It brought back memories of my stay here as a nanny.

It reminded me of and Virginia. They’d left to continue their romance elsewhere, in a small town in Mexico.

Now we had Alfred, the chef, and Bethany, the housekeeper.

“Whew.” I released a huge breath as I dropped my bag on the vanity.

“You should let me ease your tension.” I didn”t know when my husband appeared beside me, trailing his nose down my neck while working skillful fingers to release the knots in my shoulders.

My core moistened at the act. This man would never stop having this effect on me.

“Do I have a choice?” I whimpered.

He pulled back with a smirk. “No,” he groaned.

In a split second, we were on the bed, with him on top of me.

“I”m going to teach you a lesson for turning me down in the car.” His rasp did everything to my insides.

I licked my lips, trailing a finger down his clothed chest.

“What lesson?”

His eyes darkened and his nostrils flared.

Almost immediately, my clothes were yanked off.

“I’ll fuck you raw and hard…I’ll fuck you till you’re in oblivion.”

I whimpered, bringing a hand to rub my breasts. I could change the game.

“What if I suck you till you’re in oblivion?”

He inhaled sharply.

With a finger, I slowly pushed him off me until our positions were exchanged.

He watched me with a dangerous glint, then I started to stroke his dick.

“Fuck, E—” Before he could complete his words, I took him in my mouth.

He quickly fisted my hair.

“Fuck!”

I bobbed my head in an up-and-down motion, applying a little pressure with my hand on his base.

He hardened impossibly in my mouth as I continued to suck and lick.

His hand in my hair controlled my movement.

“Good girl,” he purred at the fast pace I assumed.

I could feel his legs tightening and I increased my pace even more but before he released, he switched our positions and placed a pulsing dick at my entrance.

“You”ve been a naughty girl,” he growled, slamming hard into me.

I screamed at how deep he hit.

“Careful now, the kids might hear you,” he whispered in my ear, angling my hips to slam harder into me.

I bounced with his pace, enjoying every inch of his dick in me.

Mine. He was all mine.

I released loud moans as he continued to thrust into me, hitting my sweet spot.

“Fuck, Ethan,” I moaned.

His eyes narrowed on my chest before he reached out to knead one of my breasts.

Then his lips met mine in a rough kiss.

I arched into him until my stomach curled, and my body shook with pleasure.

With a loud moan, I rode my climax.

He followed shortly after with a loud grunt before crashing into the space beside me.

I turned to him, and he tugged my knee across his hips before settling his hand on my waist.

Pleasurable chills worked my spine as I stared at his pleasure-stricken face.

All I could think about was how much I loved this man and the life he”d given me.

He leaned to kiss my forehead before taking the words right out of my lips.

“I love you, Evie.”

I smiled, nestling in the crook of his neck.

“I love you too, Ethan.”

This was my happy ever after, and it was beautiful.

The End

Did you like this book? Then you’ll LOVE my other book “Surprise Baby For My Ex”s Best Friend”, a steamy enemies to lovers off-limits billionaire boss romance, in the “Off-Limits Baby Daddies” serie.

Here is a short description of what “Craving My Secret Billionaire Alpha” is all about:

Bro-Code 101:Never mess around with your best pal’s ex-girlfriend, let alone get her pregnant.Yet, that is exactly what I did...

It was my darkest and wildest one-night stand.But also the night I had broken all sorts of friend codes.

I had just realized who the sinfully curvy seductive woman I had hungrily devoured was;My best friend and business-partner’s freshly minted ex-girlfriend.

And then, two days later, she walked into our company as the new lead architect.

I hated the way she never succumbed to my orders;or how another part of my body took control over me whenever I saw her.

Things got even crazier when I had to temporarily offer her my house to protect her.Now whenever I looked at her, all I could think of were the thousand different positions…

Yet giving into my desire would cost me everything;my stay-single-stay-happy motto, my business and my friendship.

But for her –and the baby I just found out we’ll have– I was ready to risk it all.
