Chapter 274: Finally Getting There
Weeks passed quickly after the sleepover.They were already halfway through the second month of construction.What had once been nothing but a skeleton of concrete and steel beams now looked like an actual building. The exterior was nearly complete — windows fitted, glass walls in place, the entrance doors already installed. The signboard they had commissioned was finished and sitting in storage, waiting to be mounted.Inside, the electrical and plumbing work was close to done. The walls had been painted and the floor tiles were laid. All that remained were minor installations before the interior could be furnished.Stoneworks had kept their word. In the first month, the crew had worked sixteen-hour days. In the second month, they had shifted to rotating shifts that kept the site running around the clock. The pace showed.Gray stood near the entrance, hands in his pockets, taking it in. Ben was beside him, clipboard in hand as always, watching a team of workers fit light fixtures alo
Chapter 273: You Two Look Suspicious
It was the best night Gray had had in a long time.He blinked awake early, the soft morning light pressing through the gap in the curtains. For a moment he didn't move. He lay there on his back, staring at the ceiling, feeling strangely light. His body should have been tired after everything — and it was, a little — but underneath that was something that felt close to rest.Beside him, Selina was still asleep. Her breathing was slow and even, her hair loose and slightly tangled from sleep. One hand rested on his stomach. She looked completely at ease. Gray turned his head and looked at her. A small smile came without him deciding to."Last night was something else," he thought. Before the thought could go anywhere, the door erupted. BANG. BANG. BANG. "Brother! Sister Selina! Are you awake?! Hello?!" Gray nearly came out of his skin. Beside him, Selina's eyes snapped open and she let out a short gasp, sitting up fast. "What's happening?" she mumbled, still half asleep. "Lily," G
Chapter 272: On Top
Their clothes were already on the floor.Gray sat at the edge of the bed with Selina beside him, her back against his chest, her legs parted. His fingers moved between her thighs and she bit down on her lower lip to keep the sound in.She was already warm and slick against his hand. When he felt how ready she was, something in his expression shifted. His movements grew more deliberate — slow, circular, a steady press that drew the breath right out of her."Gray..." she whispered.He could feel the heat of her, the wetness gathering on his fingers as he worked deeper. He slid one finger inside her slowly, thrusting in a steady rhythm, and with his free hand he reached up and cupped her breast, his thumb brushing across her nipple. The touch made her flinch — a sharp edge of sensation that softened quickly into something that made her hips press down against his hand.Selina leaned her full weight back into him. She spread her legs wider, giving him everything he asked for without being
Chapter 271: Do That Again
Selina's breath caught when she felt the warmth of his mouth against her skin. Gray's focus had narrowed completely. Nothing existed for him right now except her. A soft sound escaped her lips.His tongue moved slowly across her nipple, already stiff at his touch. Her back lifted off the bed and her breath left her in a rush. Shivers ran all the way down her spine. Gray's mouth was warm and completely unhurried, drawing a quiet sound from her with each pass of his tongue, each soft pull. He was patient with her, working thoroughly in a way that made thinking difficult.His hands held her steady as he moved to the other side, tracing a slow path across her chest without ever fully leaving her skin. She felt his tongue circle her other nipple, teasing rather than giving her what she wanted, and instinctively she shifted toward him. Gray lifted his head. "Do that again," he said quietly, "and I stop." Selina went still immediately. She gave a small nod, her expression stripped of eve
Chapter 270: Goodnight, Princess
Selina gently brushed a few loose strands of hair from Lily's face. The little girl's lips were slightly parted, one small hand resting against Selina's arm.She was completely out.Gray watched quietly, the corners of his mouth softening."Guess that's our signal," he murmured.Selina smiled and nodded. "She looks so peaceful." Her voice was barely above a whisper.Gray stood and moved closer. He slipped one arm beneath Lily's shoulders and another beneath her knees. She stirred just slightly, mumbling something in her sleep, then settled her head against his chest."She's heavier than she looks," he said softly.Selina chuckled under her breath. "You're just getting old.""Hey. That's mean."She covered her mouth, trying not to laugh too loudly as they made their way down the dim hallway. The condo had quieted around them, the only light coming from the lamps.Selina pushed open Lily's bedroom door and held it for him. The room smelled faintly of lavender, soft pink accents everywhe
Chapter 269: She's Out
The movie began.It was animated — bright colors, cheerful music, the kind that asked nothing of anyone. Lily instantly leaned forward, eyes locked on the screen as though the rest of the world had stopped existing.Gray leaned back against the cushions, one arm resting on the armrest. Selina sat on the other end. Between them, Lily had her legs tucked under a blanket and both hands wrapped around a bowl of popcorn that was clearly too large for her.As the story played out, Gray and Selina found themselves watching Lily more than the screen. She laughed with her whole body — swinging her legs, hugging a pillow to her chest, leaning forward when something surprised her, throwing herself back when it paid off. It was impossible not to smile.Every so often, Lily would glance over at both of them, checking that they were having as much fun as she was. When she could see that they were, she would giggle and point things out."This one's my favorite, Brother," she whispered, as if sharing
