Irresistible Love

Zachary Pov

Everyone’s eyes were set on me as I stood in the middle of the room, hands shoved inside my pant pockets as I thought of a plan to at least give them the idea about what they were going to meet. Juliette...

Even though I made it clear to her that she had to deal with our family all by herself, still I couldn’t help but be worried of her and our baby as I brought my our family directly from the airport to the hotel. I knew if they see Juliette all of a sudden then they would go berserk and bombard her or who knows maybe get angry over her and also over me... And keeping on mind that she is pregnant, it would be good if I give them an idea and then let them face her.

My mother sat on the couch next to Gale and both Juliette’s mother’s and father stood near the window, while Jace sat sat on the Piano’s bench facing our direction while my grandfather and grandmother along with Kristian stood near the small bar taking sips occasionally from their wine. Kristian gave me a smirk but his expression turned to a smug one when he saw my jaws clenching.

“Are you going to keep standing there?” Gale was the first to break the silence and as he kept his hand on my mother’s lap who held it firmly.

Gale and I had a huge fight the last time because he planned on destroying me by submitting my illegal arms and weapons truck to the cops. But he had no idea that I had known he was the one behind it all and thanks to my man who work as cops for informing me on time or else I would have been destroyed. I was in the verge of shooting all the bullets that I had in my gun into his forehead but if it weren’t for mom getting in the middle trying to save him, I would have really killed him. Mom had to apologise in his behalf and she clarified that she was aware what Gale had been doing all these years, starting from Gina’s case to the illegal weapon case but still she didn’t interfere because she thought he wouldn’t do it again.

For the first time in my life, I was I was angry on my own mother for always choosing him over him and putting a veil over his actions and it intensified to the extent that I was on the verge of breaking all my ties with her but then she begged that she loved him but she loved me too and she couldn’t live with us. My grandmother had to step in and break all the ice and finally after some chaos it was all sorted. Mom assured me that it was for the last time that Gale played these cheap tricks and she would make sure that he keeps out of my business and Gale admitted that it was his wrong move and truly he wouldn’t do that again.

I had to backout that day after giving a last warning.

Since that day, the problems between us has decreased but not to the extent where we would roam together talking about our lives. But as long as he behaved I would keep my sanity for mom’s sake.

“Zac?” Mom asked and I looked at her but avertexd my gaze away from her and looked at Juliette’s father. My eyes narrowed at him as I looked at his appearance. He wasn’t in his usual self. He had grown his facial hair and had dark circles as if he hasn’t been sleeping in the nights as if something were disturbing him. He looked remorseful in a type of way where it looked as if he wanted to tell me something but he couldn’t.

Only if he knew, I already knew.

Mrs. Swanson had stood their with a stoic look as she looked at the ground and avoided meeting my gaze. Jace, while on the other hand sat quietly looking at me intently and I cleared my throat to get everyone’s attention. I was just about to open my mouth to speak when the buzzing of my phone stopped me from going further. Annoyed at the person for calling me at a wrong time, I was just about to cut the call when the name displayed on the caller’s ID got my attention.
