Coming Home For Christmas
Chapter 17

Lacey's P.O.V.

You know, it's never a good thing when you receive a phone call from your kids principal asking you to come to the school so that they can talk to you about something important.

I was so confused when I got this call because it was the first time it's ever happened and I didn't understand why? or what was going on?.

I received this call after I had gotten out of therapy, so I didn't waste any time in getting in my car and heading towards my kid's school.

When I got there, I was even more confused when I noticed a sexy, sleek, black Maybach with tinted windows parked out front like whoever owned the car also owned this place as well and there were also several black hummers with tinted out windows and over a dozen guys wearing suits and sunglasses surrounding the area.

What in the Italian job is going on here?

Is the mafia in town or something?.

I ignored the mafia squad outside as I got out of my car and headed inside of the school making an immediate beeline for the reception

area.

"Can I help you?"

The receptionist asks me.

"Yes, I'm Lacey Wright, the principal called me in to meet with him"

"Oh yes Miss Wright, you can go right in, your partner and the other parents are already in there"

My partner?.

I thought to myself as I walked towards the principal's office.

Knock!!, knock!!.

"Come in"

The principal said and I entered the office.

My eyes immediately widened in shock when I walked in and I saw who was in there.

Holy f**k.

What are they doing here?.

"Lacey Lace, how are you doing girl?"

Logan's brother Ryker asks me as he comes over and bear hugs me.

"I'm good, Ryker"

I said with a smile as I hugged him back.

"How are you?"

"I'm good pretty girl but I've missed you so much, little sister, if I knew you were in London and I knew you were the mother of my niece and nephews, I would've tracked you all down a lot sooner" Ryker said and I felt pain, sadness and guilt fill my heart from all of the emotions in his voice.

I think I hurt more people than I thought when I decided to leave America.

"I missed you too, Ryk"

I said barely above a whisper as I looked over his shoulder at his big brother who once again looked like a sexy mafia don, especially with that glare on his face.

A throat clearing interrupted us and we pulled apart as we looked at the principal.

"Sorry"

"It's ok, Miss Wright, now that everyone is here we can discuss the incident"

"Incident? what incident?"

I ask.

"The kids got into a fight, babe"

Logan says and my eyes widen in shock.

"A fight? no, there's no way"

"Miss Wright..."

"No don't Miss Wright me, my kids aren't violent and they don't hit other people"

"Calm down, Lace"

Logan said sternly as he wrapped his arm around my waist and pulled me closer to him kissing my temple as he did.

"There has been an incident, Miss Wright and unfortunately, Logan, Dayton and Teddy did get physical with a couple of kids"

I can't believe this.

"What happened?"

"From the statements I've taken from everyone involved, a few boys were bullying Elijah and for some reason, Logan, Dayton and Teddy felt like fighting with these kids was better than using their words or coming and telling a teacher" "Wait, hold up, so, you're telling me my children were once again defending their cousin from bullies and instead of bringing them and their parents in here, you've called us?"

Don't get me wrong, I'm not defending nor condoning my kid's actions but I'm not gonna get angry with them either because they were defending and protecting Elijah from nasty a*s bullies something the teachers should be doing. "They're in the wrong, Miss Wright"

"I don't care, I'm so sick of bullies getting away with murder, they're the ones in the wrong and so are the teachers who should be watching them but my kids are the ones being pulled in here? this has got to be a joke"

"My wife is right, it's not fair that our kids are being punished for protecting their cousin, yes they shouldn't have gotten physical with these bullies but they shouldn't be punished for protecting their own family either" Wife? did he just call me his wife?.

"Logan, I'm already pissed off, don't make me feel even worse"

I growled to him under my breath and do you know what he did? he smirked and winked at me before kissing my forehead.

Motherfucker.

"Wife? Miss Wright is your wife, Mr Black?"

The principal asks with wide eyes.

I was about to respond when numbnuts next to me beat me to it by c*****g his leg and pissing on me to mark his territory, figuratively speaking of course.

"Yes she is and these three beautiful children are mine".

"Yeah we are and there's nothing you can do about it"

Dayton says cheekily.

"Dayton James Wright shut your mouth"

"Whoa mum, chill, you don't have to full name me"

"Yes I do when you're being cheeky, now stop"

I growl at him.

"Listen to your mother, son".

"Ok, dad"

Oh my god.

Apparently, replaceing out my kids belong to Logan Black changed the principal's tune because he was ready and willing to suspend the triplets but now he's decided to just give them a warning because he doesn't wanna risk pisisng off one of the most powerful and richest men in the world.If you are not reading this novel on Ebookex.com know that some paragraphs are not complete.

After giving the children their warning, we all left the office and Ryker didn't waste any time in questioning Logan and me about his stupid little comment earlier.

"So, Mrs Black when was the wedding? and why weren't we invited?"

Ryker asked pretending to be hurt and offended with his last question.

"We're not married, Ryker, your brother is just a dumbass who can't control his mouth, that's all"

"Especially when it comes to you, sweetheart"

Logan said as he pulled me closer to him and kissed my cheek which irked me even further.

"Stop kissing me, Logan"

"I can't help it, Mrs Wright"

A*****e.

I groaned in annoyance.

Logan then did something which I wasn't expecting and I really wanted to kick him in the nuts for doing it.

"Hey Ryk, can you do me a favour and take the kids back to your place for a few hours?"

"Sure, why?"

"I'm gonna take my wife out for some dinner"

What?.

"Oh no you're not, Logan"

"Oh yes I am, babe"

Logan said and I squealed when he picked me up bridal style.

"Logan put me down"

"Nope...kids say goodbye to mommy"

Logan said and my youngest two happily said goodbye to me as our little girl was looking at us both with hearts in her eyes. "Bye, mum"

"Daddy's holding you like a princess, mummy, it's so cute"

Teddy says giddily.

"Where are you taking our mother?"

Logan Junior asks.

"Don't worry son, daddy is just taking mommy to get something to eat, I'll bring her back to you in a few hours, I promise" "You'd better"

My son said sternly and I had to stifle a chuckle when I looked at him.

He looks so much like his father, it's unreal.

Logan then spun around almost giving me whiplash as he did before briskly walking towards the black Maybach I had seen earlier.

"Logan, please put me down"

"Nope, I like you in my arms, love"

Urgh!!.

"What about my car? I can't leave my car here".

I ask hoping that would get me out of this but nope.

"Don't worry, one of my men will take it home"

He said and I groaned in annoyance.

"Urgh!!, why are you doing this?"

"Because I wanna spend some time alone with you so that we can talk"

"There's nothing for us to talk about jackass"

"Actually, there's a lot we need to talk about, my love and stop cursing, you're too beautiful to curse....unless you're cursing whilst moaning from an orgasm that is" For f**k's sake.

I facepalmed as my face reddened and Logan chuckled.

He's such an ass.

Logan's driver opened the back passenger side door for us and Logan got in with me still in his arms and he held me tight on his lap.

I tried to get up a few times but stopped after the fourth try when Logan threatened to flip me over and spank my a*s if I carried on.

I huffed in annoyance as I looked out of the window fully intending to ignore the caveman I was sitting on but he wasn't willing to let me ignore him and I wasn't expecting him to do what he ended up doing to get my attention. "Are you just gonna ignore me, babe?"

Yes.

"Seriously, Lacey, don't ignore me"

And what are you gonna do if I continue to ignore you?.

"f**k this"

Logan growled as he gripped my chin and planted a kiss on my lips.

At first, I was shocked, especially with how rough and passionate he was being with me but then I ended up melting into it and kissing him back.

I was still unsure about everything and I was definitely feeling conflicted about Logan and my feelings for him, as well as my feelings about everything else but I decided to forget about all of that for now and just enjoy the kiss. Logan and I eventually pulled away from our kiss but we were still a few inches away from each other with our foreheads touching and our breaths mingling.

"Holy fuck...you don't know how long I've waited to kiss you like that, Lace"

"Well, if you're telling me the truth then I'd say it's been around six years"

I said with a slight chuckle.

I don't know what was happening but I was starting to feel even lighter than I did when I left therapy earlier...

Urgh!!.

Don't tell me my heart is betraying me and is siding with Logan as well.

"Are you ok, Lace? you seem different today"

Logan asks me as he caresses my cheek with his thumb.

"I've just come from seeing my therapist, therapy always makes me feel different, lighter even after a session with her"

"You're in therapy? why are you in therapy?"

Logan asks shocked and I was relieved when I didn't hear any judgement in his voice and the only thing I saw in his eyes was worry and concern for me.

"There's a few reasons why...I was feeling very depressed after what happened with Luca, Dylan and my family, I wasn't sleeping properly and I was crying all of the time, so my friend Carmella suggested I go and see a therapist" "Wait, Carmella? Carmella knew where you were?".

"She's my best friend, Logan"

I said in a d...
