CHAPTER NINETEEN

Owen

Looking down the lens of the camera on my phone, I’m bursting with giddiness when I say, “I’ve met someone.” I rest my chin on top of my clenched fist that’s resting on the table.

An involuntary smile shapes my lips. I can’t help it. I’m so fucking happy because Jade is the only good thing in my life right now. And Poppy. She’s the little firecracker that has my heart in a spin.

I hear running footsteps behind Lincoln and right on cue, Violet appears. “You met someone?” she gasps, nudging Lincoln’s side to take a seat next to him. She’s a sucker for gossip.

Lincoln’s statement grin sparkles back at me, his olive skin making his teeth look even whiter. Got to hand it to him, he works those Greek genes of his; he knows he’s a handsome fucker. “It’s only taken you a few weeks to meet someone?”

“Not just anyone, Linc. She’s the one.” I sigh, blissfully.

“What’s she like?” Violet’s dark eyes light up.

Christ, Violet, why don’t you grab some popcorn while you’re here?

I chuckle at her enthusiasm before I say, “She’s.” I stop, unable to find the right word. “Sensational.” Intense peace settles in my chest.

Violet repeats my words. “She’s sensational,” she gasps. “And what is the name of this sensational woman?”

“Jade.” I sigh, feeling like the boy next door who scored a date with the head cheerleader.

“Is she vacationing in Cyprus?” Lincoln presses me. He and Violet will want to know everything, and I have been bursting to tell someone, anyone, about Jade.

“She’s a member of the Royal Air Force. She works with Gregor.” I’m being vague before I tell them exactly what she does for a living. Because it fucking knocks my socks off and I’m hoping it will knock theirs off too.

“What does she do?” Violet leans forward.

“She’s a pilot,” I say proudly.

“A pilot?” Lincoln’s mouth drops open in shock.

“She’s a world record holder. The first and only woman to have ever flown with the aerobatic team. She’s a fucking knockout and amazing at what she does.” My chest bursts with pride.

Lincoln shakes his head in disbelief. “Only you could fall in a dumpster and come out smelling like a perfumery.”

I watch Violet grab her phone, no doubt to scour the internet and find a picture of Jade.

“She has a daughter called Poppy. She’s amazing too.” Everything about them both brings me joy. That joy growing every time I’m around them.

I couldn’t comprehend it at first, however, it’s clear to me now that the three of us were meant to be. We belong together.

“You bagged a woman and a child. You’re an instant family.” Lincoln fights hard to keep the surprise out of his voice. “You’ve changed, man.”

“I have,” I agree.

Violet flips her phone around to show me something on her screen. “She’s their team leader?” Violet sounds stunned. “Is this her?”

I look at the image on the screen and nod. “Yeah.”

“Holy fucking shit, she is stunning.” Lincoln grabs the phone from Violet. “How the fuck did your ugly ass get her?”

“Fuck if I know.
