Jai looks over at me when I wake up and he smiles. "Good afternoon, baby. Are you ready to go to The Golden Gate Bridge?"
"Yes," I climb out of bed. "Can we get something to eat? I'm starving."
Jai laughs. "Sure," he picks up the keys from the nightstand and he holds his hand out to me. "Where do you want to go?"
I place my hand in his. "I want to go somewhere that doesn't have greasy food. I don't want to throw up again." We walk out of the room and head towards Nate's room. I knock on the door.
Nate opens the door. "Are we going now?"
"Yes,"
A smile spreads across his face. "Good, I was getting bored sitting in my room while you were sleeping." He hugs me. "How are you feeling now?"
"I'm feeling much better."

On the way to The Golden Gate Bridge, I see a drug store. "Jai, can you pull over? I need to go to the drug store."
He pulls the car into the parking lot. "Do you want me to come with you?"
I shake my head. "I won't be long." I kiss him before I step out of the car and walk into the drug store. I walk over to the trolleys and pull one out. As I walk around the store I see sandwiches on a fridge shelf. I go through the selection on the shelf before I pick up three sandwiches. I make my way down another aisle and get some chips, water and soda.
When I get to the section that has pregnancy tests. I am at a complete standstill. There are so many different varieties to choose from.
Why can't it just be simple when it comes to selecting something you need.

A woman with blonde hair stands next to me and she picks up one of the boxes. She looks at me. "I recommend you use this one." She gives me the box. "I used this when I thought I was pregnant."
I take the box from her. "Thanks,"
She smiles. "I'm Leila King."
"Leila, where are you?" A male yells. He walks down the aisle towards us. He wraps his arms around her. "I thought I lost you."
She giggles. "You can't lose me."
I take a closer look at the guy with the woman. He has dark hair and dark eyes. He's hot, but not as hot as a fiancé.
That's Ace Fitzpatrick.
Ace looks at me. "Hello, I'm..."
"Chloe, where are you?" Jai walks towards me. "You're brother and I have been waiting for twenty minutes for you." He stops next to me and looks at the couple in front of me.
Ace laughs. "It's been so long since I've seen you, man." He shakes Jai's hand.
Do they know each other?
Leila pulls me away from the guys. "They're going to talk forever now. Every time Ace meets an old friend he talks and talks. He forgets about me." She pouts.
I laugh. "He could never forget about you. Do you want to hear my observation about him?" She nods. "Ace is watching your every move, even though he's talking to a friend. If someone was to touch you he would be next to you in a moment and he'd forget about the person he's talking to. Did you know he loves you?"
She shakes her head. "He hasn't told me yet."
I smile. "He will tell you when the time is right, but from what I have heard you are the hottest couple in Tinsel Town."

She looks towards Jai. "You're the talk as well, but it's not in a positive way. When you return home things will change for you. Your in-laws have been taking care of everything while Jai went to get you. I just didn't think I'd run into you either." She pulls her phone out of her pocket. "When we get home we should catch up."
I take the phone from her and enter my number into the contacts. "I'll see you around." I walk over to Jai and Ace. "I'm ready to go."
"Alright," he turns to Ace. "I will see you around." Jai places his hand on the small of the back and he leads me out the cash register.
I pay for the items and we leave.
Nate jumps out of the car and he runs over to us. He takes the bags from me. "You shouldn't be carrying anything." He opens the bag and looks inside. "Food," he climbs into the backseat and pulls out a sandwich and starts eating. He gives the bag to me.
I take the sandwiches out of the bag and look at them before I open one. I hand the other to Jai.

At The Golden Gate Bridge Jai, Nate and I step out of the car and we make our way to the bridge. I stop at one of the viewing sections and look at the bridge.
"Chloe," Jai yells.
I turn in his direction and he takes a photo of me.
Nate takes Jai's phone from him and takes a photo of us. He walks over to a couple standing next to us and he says. "Can you take a photo of us?"
"Sure," the girl takes the phone from him. "Can you do the same for my husband and me?"
"Yes, I can." Nate moves over to Jai and me. He stands next to me. The woman takes a photo of us. Nate takes the camera from her and takes a photo for them.
Jai wraps his arm around my shoulder. "Do you want to walk across the bridge?"
"Yes, I do." We walk in the direction of the bridge.
Nate catches up to us on the bridge. He looks at me. "I wish Mom, Dad and Aleysa were here to see this with us." He looks at the ground and I see a tear roll down his face.
I move out of Jai's arms and hug my brother. I feel his body shake as he cries. I wave my hand over at Jai and he holds me.
A group of paparazzi walk across the bridge following Leila and Ace.
Leila looks at me and I shake my head letting her know not to walk over to us. I don't want them to know that we're in San Francisco. If they did the paparazzi would follow us everywhere and I'm not ready for them to do that.
I turn Jai and Nate towards the water and we watch the boats. "We should watch the sunset tonight from the water. I bet it would be beautiful against the backdrop of this bridge."
Jai pulls his phone out. "Let me make a call and I'll see if we can do that." He puts the phone up to his ear. "Hey, Ace. Do you still have the boat?" He's quiet for a moment. "Great, we'll see you tonight." He puts his phone away.
Nate looks at us. "Who is Ace?"
"He's a guy that I went to High School with. I haven't seen him in a few years and today I ran into him at the drug store. His girlfriend was talking to your sister."

Alpha of the Darks, Vince, imprints on Nya but keeps it a secret.ExcerptVince was resting in bed running the day's events through his mind when his heightened sense of hearing was alerted to the sound of ruffling sheets. Little feet hit the ground telling him it was a female and the odd placement of footsteps lets him know it wasn't Malina. He rises and when he widens his bedroom door Nya's scent flooded through his nostrils. He clears his throat instinctively and follows the smell into the hall. There he finds her coming straight towards him. He was surprised she was up this soon. She should have been out until the morning at least. Her foot was healed and her clothes were changed from earlier. She was now wearing a fitted cotton t-shirt, soft plaid shorts, and her hair was tied up in a messy bun. "What are you doing?" He folds his arms and angles his brows. She keeps her same pace beelined to him.Never, has he ever had the thought of taking a step back when being approached; until now that is. He hesitated. He firmly refused to let anything make him back down. This was his house, his rules, and she had no power over him. His focus inadvertently fell to her breast that lacked cover from a bra, and then to her smooth thighs, and like he has absolutely no control, to her toned calves. She was a foot away when the moon's glow from the skylight illuminated her face. His heart skipped a beat. It had never done that before. Then his train of thought went right off the tracks. He didn't realize how thick her lashes were, or how perfectly red her lips were stained. Where earlier she was pale, she now had a flushed pink color. The darkness from under her eyes was gone and her cheeks were slightly fuller too.He blinks away his unwanted thoughts when she stops inches from him.With a neutral gaze, an expressionless expression almost, she makes a sudden turn and goes around him. "What the f**k?" She was sleepwalking he registered.
