My son is my world.
I think he deserves so much better than her,
In fact, we both do!
And then I notice Mia stepping into my Gym.
My world stops still,
I notice the first drop of sweat from her forehead and God, I am hooked.
I can see that dark, hooded desire in her shy eyes.
I am picturizing her being an animal in bed…all wild and unhinged!
And soon I give into the temptation,
Forget she’s my client and it’s so off-limits.
Bring my lips down to hers,
All prepared to make her mine.
After all, this is Vegas – “The City of Sin” where anything can happen.
But what happens when my ex comes back complicating my life – again!
Suddenly Mia becomes a stranger.
Guess some things can’t be hidden forever, right?
I am determined to win my lady back,
And gift my son the mother he rightly deserves!

Chapter 1: Noah
“Do you like it, Daddy?”
God, I love the way my son calls out my name. It sends a real warmth bolting to my heart. The way he looks at me is awesome too, like I’m the most important person in his world. How anyone can have a child in the world and not want to be with them all the time is beyond me. My son is my world.
“That’s excellent, Alex. How long did it take you to draw that?”
“All day.” He cocks an eyebrow at me. “I worked hard.”
This makes me chuckle, since it’s only seven fifteen in the morning. But my son has always had a little streak of dramatism in him. But I love him for it. I adore all his personality quirks.
“Wow, well I can tell. It looks like it’s taken forever. Tell me about it.”
“That’s me and you there, from the day we went to the water park. And Bobby with his Mom...”
Heart break crosses Alex’s face, but only for a second. He might only be five years old, but he knows more than anyone else realizes. I think he understands his mother’s disappearance better than anyone cares to accept.
“Oh, well that’s lovely, Alex. You’ve done a really good job there.” I cough, trying to swallow down my feelings. “I’m really proud of you. Will you do some more art for me today while I’m at work?”
“Do you have to go to work?”
