A JakexMC Romance - Duskwood Fanfiction
Manon Corvin is many things; a survivor, a fighter and a problem to anyone who stands in her way. She will not give up until she has everything she asked for.
She moves to Duskwood to save Hannah, her friends...
A/N: Things are moving quickly now, the day after the disaster of Richy's kidnap! Manon gets an important call and finds some things out but I can't say more without spoiling! Jake is up to something but she doesn't have the time to figure it out. It's quite fluffy at times but after their hard night, they deserve some cuteness! All from Manon's POV this time but don't worry, Jake will be back at some point!
I am sorry this took so long! I have been dealing with an awful flare up of my fibromyalgia thanks to the weather starting to change, my body is not having a good time and I couldn't focus on this story. I always want to give my best and I knew I couldn't until now. I still feel awful but the creative gods let me live last night and I finished this! Enjoy! Let me know what you think when you've read it.

MANON
Her phone was ringing, she glared at it on the nightstand, Jake's arm tightened around her waist to keep her there and she considered ignoring it, her conscience kicked in though so she snatched it up and answered.
"Hello?"
Her lawyer's familiar voice filled her ear and her heart kicked up.
"Manon, it's Camille. Can you talk?" She sounded calm but that meant nothing, she was a shark and cold as ice, it's why Manon kept her on retainer. She shrugged out of Jake's hold and sat up against the headboard, he looked up at her with sad eyes making her smile. He rested his head in her lap, eyes closed as she replied.
"I can talk. Is everything okay? I was waiting on your email."
"It's moving too quickly for me to discuss over email. The bail has been set at $20k, are you certain you want to do this?"
Camille had her stern voice on, the one she used whenever Manon was doing something she found reckless, which was too often but usually it all turned out okay.
