Shackled (The Lord Series) by Amy T

328. Olivia - The visit II

I rush past Jasper and Mose while I scream from the top of my lungs, "Angelica!"

She and Stefan stop in the middle of the garden. I'm so happy to see that she's alright that I go directly for a hug. "You have no idea how worried I was for you," I say as my arms wrap tight around her. "Olivia?" She sounds just as surprised as I am to see her.

"Yes," I confirm.

Angelica pulls back her head to take a better look at me. "You look so much healthier now that I didn't even recognize you."

I press my lips in a thin line before saying, "It's been a month since I stopped taking drugs." I grab her arm and start leading her to the house. "Tell me about you. I can't believe you're pregnant!" Angelica turns her head around to look at Stefan, who encourages her to go with me. "I will join you after I catch up with Olivia's bondeds."

Even though we were in the same year in high school, Angelica and I barely spoke. She had her friends, and I had mine. She must be wondering why I'm acting so friendly, but I am so desperate to spend time with a woman and gossip about anything and everything that I don't care if I come off as desperate because I am.

Diva follows us up the stairs.

"Forget about the men. They will drink beer and talk about sports or about last night's meeting at the Blood Lodge."

Angelica blinks. "What happened last night?"

It wasn't that hard to catch her attention.

"Let me tell you all about it over a hot cocoa."

"Count me in. My men never tell me anything juicy. They think that because I'm pregnant, I'm suddenly too delicate to hear all the gore that happens in their world. But when it comes to fucking, I can take it," she huffs. "Mine are the same." Especially Jasper. Whenever he fucks me, it's like he's drilling my pussy. But I love being fucked by Ansel and Mose just as much.

We enter the kitchen. Diva gets under the table and lies on the floor. "Whenever you feel like gossiping, I've got your back."

Angelica suddenly squeals happily, scaring Miss Teapot, who is playing with her ball. "You have a black cat."
