Possessive meets Fierce

Epilogue: You Ready?

3 Years Later

-Asher's POV

Currently sitting here as I gather up my documents from my desk. I can't help but gaze at the photo on my desk. It's a photo of Eva and I at the beach. A soft smile forming from the memories of that day. It was from the summer after we all graduated and decided to have a beach party to celebrate. We celebrated more than just our graduation that day... We have definitely come a long way since then. 

"Mr. Moore, your appointment has arrived. I have put them in the meeting room." 

My assistant says from the intercom snapping me out of my thoughts. I let him know I will be there shortly. I get everything I need and walk over to my conjoined door before walking in. My eyes landing on a certain woman who has stolen my heart. I stand at the door as she continues speaking Russian while pacing behind her desk. Her pencil skirt curving her just right making me grin. She's in a light blue blouse to match her unique eyes. Her long red flames now reaching her delectable ass in small waves.  I could stand here all day long and watch her run these investors in circles. I chuckle when I look down and notice she has placed her high heels next to her chair while she walks around bare foot. Her head snaps to me hearing me chuckle. She is quick to pick up her pen throwing it at me. I duck in time as she ends the call. I stand back up walking over to her. She reaches down to gather her high heels and slip them on. 

"Sweetheart, it's time." I state simply while gathering her in my arms. Her muscles relaxing against mine making me grin even more. It has been over 3 years since we met and yet I her body still reacts as if it was our first time. I still feel the electric buzz from just a simple touch. After slipping on her shoes she allows her fingertips to graze up my arms to encircle my neck while her fingers graze the nape of my neck. I feel myself get goosebumps as she smirks. She knows. I lean forward giving her a soft sensual kiss releasing her only after we get interrupted yet again by our assistant reminding Eva about the meeting. Cock-blocker.

"Come now Mr. Moore, can't keep them waiting." Eva says in a seductive tone making me groan as she giggles walking away. I get to her office door opening for her before placing my hand on the small of her back. I look over seeing our assistant smile at us as we head to the meeting room. Her uncle sitting already as we head to his side to sit along side him. The investors stand to greet us before they all shake our hands. Eva and I have been working under Drake for two years now. He and my father are retiring in only a few weeks. Eva and I have a few plans to finish up before that can occur. 

"Gentlemen, the floor is yours." Drake says in a professional tone. Eva directly beside him while I sit on her side.  I watch as Eva listens to the investors while unconsciously spinning her engagement ring around her finger. I smirk watching the ring spin around her finger. I proposed while we were on vacation in Russia with the gang. Eva cried that day with the biggest smile I have ever seen. It was the easiest decision I have ever made. Cara and Leila were with us and they both gave their blessings along with Drake. Memories of our years wash over me as I remember back to the beginning. We may have had disagreements but it was never to the point where I couldn't see a future without her. That is why when it came time to propose... I had no doubts. She was it for me. 

Eva clears her throat making me come back to my surroundings. I watch as she pushes her chair back and crosses her legs slowly. I know why this gesture means and I look across the table to see the gentlemen looking confused at one another. I smirk realizing what is about to happen. 

"Gentlemen, Willow Industries is among one of three strongest companies in the United States. We have come to this due to loyal and strong investors over the years. We believe in honest fair deals above all else." She pauses for a minute while her gaze sweeps the four gentlemen. "With this being said we do not appreciate wasting out time on anything less." 

"Ms. Willows-"

"Until you and your partners feel the necessity to be truthful in your deals, we do not wish to have any further meetings with you." She stands up effectively having Drake and myself follow suit. The gentlemen sit there sweating bullets. I look over seeing Eva standing straight with a stoic look on her features. 

"We have been nothing but-"

"Mr. Tragen, your voice drops three notches when you are not confident in your words." 

"How-"

"Good day gentlemen. I will not be recommending you reach out to any of my business partners. I will make sure they are aware of your type of business." 

With that Eva walks out of the room with Drake and myself following her. Her canning ability to catch lies has become one of the biggest assets in our deals being made. We all walk back into Eva's room with Drake flopping down in one of the chairs as I take the other. Eva flopping down in her seat before removing her high heels make me chuckle yet again. 

"If you keep this up Eva, every underhand corporation will be open to the public." Drake says with an amused smile. 

"They shouldn't walk into a business deal if they aren't willing to do the work." Eva shrugs. Drake shakes his head still smiling. He stands back up and walks over to Eva kissing her head before murmuring something against her head which she nods to. He takes his leave after nodding at me. 

"You okay?" I ask as I stand up walking over to her side of the desk. She stands up tugs me to sit in the chair before she sits on my lap cuddling into my chest. I try not laughing at the fact that she has become the biggest cuddler over the years. She can still lay me on my ass when she is mad... god it's hot.  

 "Yea just ready to head home." She whispers against my neck. I wrap my arms around her as I reach forward pressing her intercom. I tell our assistant to cancel our meetings for the rest of the day. Eva smiles against my neck before gently kissing it. 

"The family should all be there around 7." I say as I stand up with her still in my arms. Her arms winding around my neck. I don't pay any attention to the eyes that look our way as we get into our private elevator. We make it to our home which was Drake's home. He gifted Eva the home on her 18th birthday as he bought a new home for himself and Maria. Parker and Cara have gotten their own home as well only 5 minutes from our home. They are both attending college, Cara for Nursing and Parker for Physical therapy. Leila is still living with us until she graduates. Brody and Marcus currently are married and running Brody's business side by side. I carry her in and up to our room. 

"Eva, I need your- Oh." Leila stops herself seeing her in my arms. Leila has grown up into a mature young beauty. Her bright blues and olive skin making her stand out. She currently is studying to become a lawyer. I thought it was a perfect match for her. "Is she asleep?"

"Not anymore." Eva grumbles while wiggling out of my arms. Leila giggles but walks to her sister gathering her in a hug. Eva kissing the side of her head. 

"The boys are coming early to help set up but I could use some help. Eva, have you..." Leila trails off making me raise an eyebrow. Eva just shakes her head negatively making me more confused. 

"Asher, come with me." Eva says before walking to the back patio. I follow behind her as Leila gives me a wide smile before skipping away. 

"Eva, your sister just skipped." I state in a weird tone while Eva rolls her eyes and takes a seat at the table. I go over kneeling down in front of her looking at her face that looks worried. I take both of her hands in mine making her sparkling blue eyes snap to mine. "Eva, what's wrong." 

"I love you Asher." She says while gripping my hands. My brows furrowing more do to my confusion. I wait for her to continue. "I don't think I have ever been more scared than I am right now..." 

I grip her hands firmly while waiting for her to continue. My pulse racing wondering if I have done something wrong. Her next words making the breath leave my lungs. 

"I'm pregnant." 

I lung forward kissing her hard. She is quick to reciprocate while tears roll out of my eyes. I have been hoping we would have a baby sooner more so than later. I couldn't be more happy right now if I tried. I finally allow her to breath as I reach down putting my hand to her stomach as she places hers over mine. 

"You ready Mr. Moore?"

"Absolutely Mrs. Moore."
