“I can’t believe I get to be the first person to cook for your guest and be your head chef right here too!” Tiana screamed as she awed at the delicate designs of Raven’s restaurant.
“It’s so unfair that you knew about this and didn’t think to tell me about it.” Raven argued.
“Have you gone bad on understanding simple words. It was a surprise. A surprise!” Tiana chuckled at her own words.
They were doing the grand opening of Raven’s restaurant. Raven looked around reminiscing on how far she had come within a year.
When they returned home from Brooklyn, Raven told christopher about Jacob’s return and they had asked him to come over to Connecticut and discuss how they would go about co-parenting. Jacob had been devastated at the news because he had been hopeful on Raven getting back with him. Since it wasn’t going to be as he had intended Jacob returned to Europe and only keeping in touch with Rowan on the phone. But they hang out together whenever he is in town.
Rowan moved in with Raven and Christopher. Eight months after the ruckus, Raven birthed a beautiful baby girl. They had named her Carissa.
Everyone dotted on Carissa and it scared Raven so much that she hoped her baby girl wouldn’t get spoiled. However, Christopher and Rowan were more fascinated with her. They practically drooled whenever they were with her. It made Raven’s heart soar whenever she caught sight of her little family.
Rowan got to have two dads who cared so much about him. She had decided not to change his name from Rowan McKenna because she wanted the change of name to be Rowan’s choice when he grew older.
Ashley had become friendlier and they share recipes with each other. They spend time out far from their children and husband. She and Ava had gotten closer through Raven’s intervention too. It was a great delight getting to be a part of the sisters life.
Benjamin being the news monger had informed them about Jessica; saying she lived far off in some country trying to take care of her daughter. She gave birth before Raven did. When Benjamin had been asked why he went as far to keep tabs on how Jessica was living her life. He said he wanted to be certain she kept herself far away from the Crawfords as much as she could.
Raven had been home attending to her daughter when she and the rest of the family had been invited to the opening of a grand restaurant at the center of the town. She was curious to try it out as it had been long she really went on such outing. To her surprise the restaurant was being opened on her behalf.
Raven had stood mouth agape when there was a standing ovation as she made her way to the restaurant.
“On behalf of myself and wife. I present to you, your very own restaurant Raven Crawford.” James Crawford announced in front of the whole family and other invited guests.
“I appreciate you Raven. Thanks for loving this family endlessly.” Hope Crawford hugged her with so much love.
“Thank you very much. This is really too much for me… but I am so happy and grateful.” Raven couldn’t hold back the tears. It felt like a dream come true. She had always wanted to own a restaurant.
Everyone knew about it except she and Christopher. No words could express how happy she felt. Her eyes landed on Eva and Hope chitchatting with a group of classy looking women. When they sighted her they all waved in delight. Raven waved back.
“Why are they all acting so stiff? Their backs don’t hurt?” Tiana jeered at the women.
Raven chuckled into her hands. “Come on, someone might hear you Tiana.”
“Hey beautiful!” Benjamin praised Raven as he threw a sneer towards Tiana. “Hello to some unpleasant fellow.”
“Ben!” Christopher called out in a warning tone. “Stop it!” He glared at him.
Tiana scoffed. “You know what? I will head back to the kitchen. The air seems polluted already!” She stomped her feet and walked away.
“Give me a moment, Raven. By the way the food was awesome.” Benjamin said before he followed Tiana.
“You wait the hell up and listen to what I have to say!” He called out after her.
Raven and christopher laughed as they watched them disappear into the kitchen. Christopher inhaled as he wrapped his arms around Raven from behind.
“How do you feel?” He asked, kissing her exposed shoulder.
“I feel great. Thank you so much baby.” Raven said.
“I should thank you for not giving up on me baby. I love you so much Raven.”
“I love you too.” Raven replied as she kissed him.
Looking towards a table, Matilda had Carissa in her hands with Rowan, Liam, Eisner and Adam at the table fussing over the baby. Raven and Christopher waved at them. They took in a deep breath at the same time.
“This should last forever!” Raven mused.
“Definitely!” Christopher assured her with a sweet smile plastered on his face. “What do you think leaving early before everyone else? We could have some time alone while our moms take care of the kids.” He suggested. Christopher nibbled on her lips gently.
“Careful… everyone is watching.” Raven moaned. “But it’s not that bad. What do we say?” Raven blushed.
“Leave it to me. Just get your bag.” Christopher winked as he walked away from her.

So we have finally come to the end of this book. Took me a long time to complete this one and I am very grateful to some of you who waited this long, those who commented and even drop vote, I can’t thank you all enough.
As usual, I always like to update a book immediately after finishing one. But funnily enough, I already started one before this one ended. This book is a bit different from my style. It’s not the usual, billionaire, werewolf, single mom, rich kids and all.
Drum rolling! Doooooooo! Dooooooo! It is a “SMUT BOOK.” I mean… Sex Book! You probably didn’t expect that right? Yeah but I am just trying to work out something new and fun for my readers. And I am hoping to do a great job on this one again. The title is-Dangerous Addiction; Sex, Love and Scandal. It is pure erotica with different storylines. You get to read the minds of characters who has wide sexual fantasies. But this book is highly under caution, if you are not a fan of self gratification, LGBT, BDSM then don’t read.
But I have something else for you. Recently I am following up on a friend’s book titled Alpha’s Predestined Bride and a part two is also out for you all to read, Alpha Twins’ Predestined Bride. You can look it up on the app and read. It is a unique werewolf story that will blow your mind away. Thank me later.
Expect more stories from me! And you can also read my previous stories, I have seven books in total so feel free to choose from any section.
