Sinful Desire - Simon "Ghost" Riley as Billionair's Bodyguard

Torn

"In the silence of the night, I am torn apart by memories of you. Each moment etched in my heart like a jagged tear."

I closed my eyes as I fell unconscious and drifted back into the memory lane. I was sitting in my room on the base when I heard a knock, and Simon came in. I was sitting on the bed, and he kneeled in front of me. I looked at him, taking in his perfectly sculpted body hidden under his jacket and cargo pants. His hand rested on my belly.

"I can't wait Nora," he said softly.

"Neither can I," I replied, feeling a surge of warmth in my heart.

His chin rested on my shoulder as he hugged me. His chest slowly moved with every breath he took.
I wanted to take this all in. To be like this forever, to never let him go again. He rolled his balaclava up to his forehead and cupped my face in his hands.

"I can't tell you in words how much I love you. I missed you so much," he said, his eyes sparkling with emotion.

The sad, tired and empty eyes I longed to see sparkle with life again.

"I love you more," I whispered, my heart swelling with love for him.

Our lips touched in a gentle kiss, and I deepened it, playing with his hair. "I love you so much," I whispered against his lips as tears cascaded down my cheeks, feeling his smile.

"You are the reason I am living this life all over again," he said, his voice filled with love and sincerity.

"El Sin Nombre," Laswell's voice echoed in the briefing room.

"Fucking hell! I'll kill every one of those bastards if they even touch her!" Ghost's voice thundered, his fists clenched in anger.

Captain Price stepped forward, his voice steady. "We'll find her. She'll be okay. Nothing will happen to her."

But Ghost was visibly distraught, slamming his hands on the table. "All that for nothing, all that just to lose her like this," he muttered, frustration evident in his tone.

Captain Price turned to Ghost, his expression grave. "Tell me, Simon. Is there something going on between you and her? I need to hear it from you."

Ghost met his gaze, his voice trembling with emotion. "She's pregnant. I don't know how to tell you this, but I love her, and she loves me too. We can't live without each other now. There's no way back, Price."

Captain Price's features softened, understanding dawning in his eyes. "I understand, Simon. It's okay. I'm with you. You two deserve each other, and I guess she needs you more than anyone else right now."

Ghost nodded, a sense of resolve flickering in his eyes. "We're going to get her back. No matter what it takes."

Price placed a reassuring hand on Ghost's shoulder. "And we'll be right there with you. Let's get to work."

Simon held my hands gently as I handed him the email from my doctor, the words confirming my pregnancy. His eyes widened in disbelief, then softened with overwhelming emotion.

"This is the best gift you have ever given me," I whispered, my voice trembling with joy.

Simon cupped my face in his hands, his touch tender and reassuring. "And you've given me a gift beyond words, Nora," he replied, his voice choked with emotion. "I can't wait to start this journey with you."

"Hey! Look who is here," I exclaimed as I saw Captain Price approaching us.

"So, how are you, kid?" he asked, a warm smile on his face.
