TRAPPED (Breaking Free Book 2) by C S Court

doubt that. I was n’ t expecting to fall in love, but you came along and blindsided me, and I would n’ t have it any other way. Same goes for Lily and Alex . ”
    Oh my god, oh my god, could this man get any more perfect. My stomach has just flipped and I feel like a love sick teenager.
    I lick my suddenly dry lips, and watch Hunte r’ s part as his eyes trace my tongu e’ s movement.
    “ Okay, sorry to break up this love fest, but I’ m kindahungry and the pair of you look ready to bang on my kitchen counters, and I would kind of prefer it if you kept it to a bedroom please, obviously after I have had lunch with my girl . ” Lottie butts in, sudden realisation she has heard our conversation causing my cheeks to flame, the burn working its way down my neck.
    I totally forgot we had an audience, this man just utterly consumes me.
    Hunter leans in and pecks my cheek before giving Lottie his attention ,“ Sh e’ s all yours. You know the drill, three hours be enough for the pair of you? That then leaves you two hours to get everything set up at mine for when Alex and Lily return . ”
    I go to object. I get what Hunter is saying about not being myself and needing help for the next few days, but i t’ s far too soon for me and my kids to move in with him, i t’ s almost cruel if I’ m being hones t … Being a parent, full or even part time takes over your life and I ca n’ t be sure Hunter is ready for that, i t’ s just far too soon.
    Lottie gives me a sharp look, forcing any objections to stick in my throat. Yeah, that works fine. To be honest Connie, I think the best place for you and the kids to be is with Hunter for the time being, you will always have your rooms here, but I have to get back to work tomorrow and should anything happen there is no one around to help. You have got to remember that you probably have adrenaline coursing through your body at the moment, alleviating most of the aches and pains. Can you guarantee that come tomorrow you will be fine and able to run around after your monsters? It has n’ t got to be forever, and if it any point you want to come back then you can, but I cannot take any more time off of work, and there is not a chance in hell I would leave all here alone . ”
    Well tha t’ s that then, looks like Hunte r’ s apartment is due to be overrun with a pair of noisy, messy three and five year olds.

   CHAPTER TWELVE
     
    Connie:
     
     
    I swear the pair of them planned this, they must spot the resignation on my face, for they both wink at each other and have the biggest shit eating grins on their faces. If there point was n’ t valid I would turn around and storm out, probably sulk and stuff my face with cake, but it is, so I have no choice but to suck it up and do as they suggest.
    “ Le t’ s just go and get some food, you two definitely have a conspiracy going on and I really do n’ t think I want to know what it is . ” I huff out, turning to walk from the kitchen on a slight pout.
    “ You might need this . ” I’ m halted in my tracks by a shiny new smart phone shoved in my face. I snap my eyes to Hunter questioningly ,“ Yes it is a lovely phone Hunter, but why are you thrusting it at me ? ”
    Lottie giggles, abruptly trying to cover it up with a cough when Hunter throws a glare in her direction .“ I t’ s yours. Your phone was smashed so I removed the simcard, and placed it in a new handset. I do n’ t want you going anywhere without a phone, and this has a built in tracker, so should anything happen, keep it on you and we can locate you immediatel y … Not that anything is going to happen, Harry just had it fitted as a precaution . ”
    I did n’ t even think of my phone, another thing that slipped my mind .“ Hunter I ca n’ t keep accepting all of this from you and Lottie, tha t’ s another phone in the space of a few days, i t’ s not exactly fair . ” Maybe I can buy a cheap handset and have Harry place the tracker in that. I only need
