The Nanny Affair

Chapter 35- Jasper

I kiss her and hold for a moment. "We have to go home," I tell her as I place my forehead against hers. She nods and I hold her tighter. She gets up and heads out the room to help the boys pack and to inform Natty and David. I lay back in the bed and thoughts run through my head. If I didn't love her as much as I did, none of this wouldn't be happening. She would be safe and that fucking scum bag wouldn't know where she was. We have to get back to Toronto to stop this from all getting out.

Mark knocks on the door and enters, taking a seat next to me. "They will follow you, you know that?" I nod in response. "Well then the boys can stay with us to keep them out of this. You know I will protect them." I think about it for a moment and finally agree. Mark is ex-military if anything he is better equipped to handle this better than me. I walk to the boys room and tell Rosie to leave their stuff as they will be staying for as long as it takes to make this all go away.

After I pack our bags I bring them to the car, saying goodbye to Athena and Mark and hugging the boys, telling them how much I love them. I pull out of the gated driveway and head toward the highway. I see the fear run through my baby and I struggle to find the words to help her feel calm. I take her hand into mine and kiss it. Assuring her that I'm right here.

We finally arrive in Toronto and I feel like I can breathe a little more. As I drive down the long dark road to the house, I can't get the image of her being frightened out of my mind. We arrive home and I tell her to go get ready for bed as I grab the bags.

I head outside to see David, Natty is on her phone calling a cab. "No, you aren't going anywhere either. You're staying here." I tell her. David grabs her bags and walks them over to the guest house where he and Earl live. Natty follows and I head inside. Locking the door behind me, I head to my room. I look around as I put the bags down but I don't see Rosie anywhere. I walk down the hall to her room and hear the water running. I contemplate what I should do. Should I join her or let her be?

Fuck it!

I strip out of my clothes and jump in behind her, she opens her eyes, "Just hold me." She says. I wrap my arms around her and let the hot water roll over our bodies. I feel her heart race and the fear tremble through her. I cup her face, "I will protect you, I promise." I tell her. She kisses me and I lose my breath. We get lost in the moment and everything is what it's supposed to be. She pulls away and smiles.

"Pass me the body wash please." She asks. I turn and grab her vanilla body wash and hand it to her, but before she can grab it I put my hand up in the air.

"I want to wash you." I whisper in her ear as I pull her closer to me. She bites her lower lip.

I pour some of the wash on her lofa and start on her back, moving my way down to her ass and down her legs. I turn her around and place it on her neck and slowly make my way down her chest and stomach. I get down and slowly move down her thighs, I spread her legs and slowly kiss her spot as I rub her thighs. A pleasurable cry escapes her lips and I flick my tongue on her sensitive spot. Within moments she releases and I continue to wash her body. I get up and turn her to face the water and allow the shower to rinse off the soap. I kiss her cheek, "All clean," I smile.

She steps out as I finish washing myself and then finally I emerge from the bathroom. She stands in a towel and says she needs one of my shirts to sleep in. I smirk at the thought and tell her to follow me. She grabs pj pants and her bra and panties and follows me down to my room. I take a shirt out of my dresser and hand it to her.

"Thank you." She says.

She gets dressed and I hear a key turn in the key hold of the front door, I grab the gun from my drawer. "It's just us." David yells.

"Give us a second." I close the bedroom door so we can finish getting dressed. I put the gun away. After being dressed we head out to the living room to join David and Natty. Rosie asks who wants coffee and we all raise our hands. She heads to the kitchen and Natty tags along.

I lean back into the couch and look at the ceiling. The girls come back with coffees and Rosie hands me mine. She sits down on the sofa, I move so she can lean against my chest in between my legs. She grabs the blanket and turns the T.V on.

"Chessy movie?" She asks.

"Hell yeah!" We all laugh.

She puts on a hallmark movie and before I know it, we have all passed out.

I wake up to pounding on the front door. I look at my watch; Six in the morning. I slowly move Rosie so I can get up. The banging continues and I feel my anger rush to the surface. I open the door and there stands the villain to our story. She stands there with a smug look on her face, and I see the fire in her eyes. I can barely contain my fury as she moves closer, trying to look intimidating.

"Where the hell have you been?" Gisselle screams as if she is a banshee.

"Keep your voice down, people are sleeping." I tell her.

"I don't give a fuck." She yells.

I step outside into the hot sun and close the door behind me. Anger pools within me. I can feel it simmering in my chest like a cauldron and I find myself clenching my fists, my knuckles turning white.

"What are you doing here?"

"What do you mean? You disappeared and didn't even tell me." She shouts.

I rub my face, "Why do I need to tell you, when you and I are over?" I question her.

"Are you fucking kidding me?" She steps closer to me, "You have to be kidding. You actually meant what you said at the party? I swear Jasper you will regret this."

"Is that a threat?" I look into her blue eyes.

"No to you, but I'll make sure Rosie's life becomes miserable, and you can count on that." She smiles.

The door opens and I turn to see Rosie standing there. Gisselle screams in a tantrum as Rosie looks at me and I just shake my head.

"What the hell is happening?" She steps toward Rosie but I place myself in between them. "You are going to wish you never met him." She spews.

"Goodbye Gisselle," I step inside and close the door. As I lock it I can hear her screaming, "You're marrying me and I'll make sure of it."

I head to the kitchen where Rosie is, she stands there making pancakes for everyone and has the coffee brewing for all of us. The smell of freshly brewed coffee wafts through the kitchen, filling it with warmth and joy.

"I'm sorry," I tell her, but she puts her hand up and tells me we will talk after.

Natty and David join us.

"Want to do our nails?" Natty asks Rosie.

"Um yeah!" She responds.

She tells David she needs a ride to the drug store to grab some things and ask Rosie if she needs anything. Rosie hands her a list. She smiles and gets up. David follows, leaving us alone. I turn to face Rosie.

"Can we talk now?"

"Maybe she is right. Maybe the best thing for everyone is you marrying her and not being with me." She takes my hands, "Jasper I love you but if this gets out not only will this ruin your reputation it will get me killed."

"I don't care about my reputation, I care about you." I cup her face, "I'll protect you."

"You say that now," She gets up, "But you have no idea what he is capable of. Plus you need this merger."

"No I don't!" I shout. "I have enough money to stop working, I work because I feel like it. I'd stop and sell the company today if it meant spending the rest of my life with you."

She starts playing with her fingers, a sign I know when she feels anxious. I move closer to her and embrace her in my arms. "I love you," I tell her as I kiss the crown of her head.

As we stand there, it feels like minutes have turned to hours and something inside me tells me this road isn't going to be easy. A wave of anxiety rushes through my body as I think about the struggles that lie ahead.
