Chapter 165 Reinforcement

"Reinforcement is here," Jason said punching Ty on his shoulder. "Thanks for coming man." Ty laughs. "Wild horses couldn't keep me away; Jessie wanted to come as well but changed her mind when Chad threatened to handcuff her to her bed." Jason laughs. "Yeah, she called me about three times before Janice and I went to lunch." Ty chuckle.

"Half an hour later Jason was still trying to persuade Ty to go home when they saw Samson walking towards them. "What are you doing here?" Ty asks in disbelief as Samson came to a stop before them. "How can you ask me that after the conversation we had this morning?"

"Yes, and you were out of town." "And now I'm here." He said greeting Jason. "Now who's this man stalking your wife?" He asks in a serious tone. "Don't know yet, I haven't seen him but if my kitten says she's been followed, then she's been followed and with Edwards behind bars and Kayla awake, I'm not taking any chances." "Smart, well I'm here so if there's anything you need just ask," Samson said

"What I need is for him to go home and get some rest, he has to work later," Jason said. "I really… don't want to leave her. Every time I leave her…. Something bad happens." Ty said with a sigh. "I… just…" "You just need to trust God, my friend, he can do what none of us can," Samson said.

"he's right." Jason agrees. "Just put her in God's hands' man and go…home." Jason urges. "I can stay with Jason if it will make you rest easier." Samson offers. "You know….for a businessman….you seem to have a lot of time on your hands." Ty snorts.

"When it comes to my friends, I make the time, now go home, we'll handle this, I'll walk you to your car," Samson said as Ty waved goodbye to Janice and blows her a kiss. They were almost to his car when four of Tyler's cousins steps from a black SUV. "Who's the muscle?" One whom Samson wasn't familiar with asks.

"Look who's talking." Samson snorts. "Muscles literally run in our family, what's your excuse?" Another one asks. "I work out, a lot," Samson said in a threatening tone. "Alright guys, leave him alone, he's one of us, although, I'm still trying to figure out if he's my guardian angel or my conscience." Ty laughs.

"More like the goddamn terminator." One of them said. "Anyway we're here to relieve you, so you can go home and get some rest." Another one said. "Thanks, guys but he stays too, so try not to terminate each other okay." Ty laughs. "We'll do our best and we'll drop her home after she finishes her class okay." "Okay, thanks guys, I appreciate that," Ty said getting into the passenger side of his vehicle as one of his cousins got behind the wheel.

******

With Jayden and half the men in his family taking turns guarding his wife, the rest of the week went by without any more sightings of the mysterious stalker. It was now Sunday and they had just finished having lunch with Jessica, her husband, and their handsome little newborn. Ty held her close to him as they snuggled together on the padded swing under the Gazebo while watching their children play on the lawn with two of his female cousins.

"Baby…" "Hm…." He answers while playing with her hair. "Are you angry at me for getting pregnant again?" She asks. "What? Kitten, no, why would you think I am?" "Because we did everything we could think of to not have another child and here I am, pregnant again, I know how scared and frustrated you are and a part of me can't help but wonder if you somehow blame me for getting pregnant." She said in her soft sad tone.

"The last time I checked, it took two to create a baby and even though we weren't trying to make one, we did however enjoy every moment of it, over and over and over." He whispers kissing her lips softly. "Every day." She whispers against his lips. "Every night." He whispers back.

"Well, except for when you found out I was actually pregnant." She pouts. "Sorry kitten, I was just…" "Scared, I know." She caresses his cheek as she finishes his sentence for him. "But I do thank you for trying to make it up to me." She smiles.

"And I'll continue to make it up to you, as gently as I can." He chuckles. "I'm going to hold you to that, mister." "I'll make love to you like you want me to, girl I'll hold you tight, baby all through the night, I'll make love to you…..wait, by the way, have you spoken to Maya yet?" He asks cutting his singing short.

"Whoa, talk about a complete one-eighty. We were having a moment here." She laughs. "A moment I intend to continue later." He smiles wriggling his brows. "Okay then, and yes I did talk to her or should I say tried to talk to her." "Tried?" He asks. "Yes because at first, our conversation was okay, smooth, you know, girl talk but as soon as I mention Caleb's name and asks how her marriage was going, she became all puffed up and distant.

Saying everything was fine between her and her husband and it's not just that, it's how she said it, she didn't say everything was okay between her and Caleb, she said with a puff of her chest, nose in the air kind of way, that everything was okay between her and her husband." She said with a sigh.

"I mean, we're family, we don't talk to each other like that, using that tone oh and she said I should spend my time doing something more constructive than worrying about her marriage." "Wow, really? Okay, this I've got to see for myself, thank you for trying though." He said pulling her closer to him.
