I gripped the barbell, picking it up without hesitation and only with determination. The sweat dripped on my forehead, gritting my teeth, I lifted it more, feeling my muscles heat up and tense. My body is sexy for a reason, all this working out paid-fucking-off. Yet, I can't catch on lady's eyes, Stella fucking Meadows. I use my last name because she was never a Russel, she only belonged to me. Her last name brought her nothing but disgust, I bring her happiness. Maybe not in the past, but soon enough, she will be pleasured by me.

Ever since Stella and I were teenagers, I knew she was in trouble when she walks in, but that never stopped me from being dangerously devoted to her. She was always bejeweling, shining, and making the room either cheerful or she could make you cry. I don't care, I see a woman named Stella Meadows, and I am on my fucking knees. Even my fucking parents still ask about her, all they talk about is how I'm going to name my daughter Bridget.

I placed the barbell on the gym mat when Damien crawled in, dragging his baby bottle that was filled with milk onto the ground. I narrowed my eyes at him, what is this baby boy doing in the gym room?

"Mama!" He muffled, throwing his bottle on the ground annoyingly. What the fuck is wrong with Damon for raising such a troubling kid.

Stella's and I's kids will be way better than this, which is why I am not allowing my daughters to step close to Damon. I'm going to lock up my daughters in a castle because Damon is not allowed near them, not unless I want him to ruin my amazing kids.

"Come on, daddy's not home and mommy's probably busy." I picked him up, feeling his fragile body tighten in my arms. I walked up the stairs, reached Marcella's bedroom, and opened the door, not bothering to knock.

"Yes, Mom, Jaxon is treating Lily right. Damien is fine, he has too much energy." Marcella waved at me, on the phone with her mom.

"I have to go, talk to you later." She hung up the phone, throwing it on the bed. I walked up to her bed where she was sitting, taking a seat beside her. "I'm fucking eager to find out how Damien is going to turn out, he was raised by Damon, and I think he's going to be more trouble than him." Fearless, was what Damien was, only six months old and acting like a devil.

"He will have to put up with a girl with a princess attitude." Marcella laughed, playing with his tiny fingers.

"I'm going to tell the girl that's going to fall in love with him to run as fast as she can. This kid is a PIA."

"PIA?" Marcella furrowed her eyebrows.

I shrugged. "Pain in the ass."

Marcella glared at me, hitting my chest playfully with her palm. "Leave my baby alone, worry about your Stella obsession, I saw you last night, you should be lucky I didn't get you tied up and teach you how to act like a good person."
