The dons of each family were requested to be at the reading of Vigo’s will. So it was back to Belovaine, where the lawyer had agreed to meet us all.
“I’ll take Isaac and Conner in with me. You’ll stay outside with Miles and Veck. I’m not sure how long this is all gonna take, but it sure as shit won’t be without bloodshed.”
“We could just stay here. Let’s be honest, the last time you made me wait in the car, you ended up with a knife in your hand.”
I look down at my palm and see the healing wound now that I’ve removed the bandages. “If anyone is looking to get to you while I’m busy, it will be now. And the first place they’ll look will be our home.”
“I thought you bought it under an alias.”
“I did, but there is always someone somewhere who is smart enough to figure shit out, and I don’t want to risk it.”
“And hiding in plain sight right outside the building is the last place they’d think you’d stash me.”
“Yeah.” I look at my watch before taking her in.
Today, she’s dressed in a simple, off-the-shoulder black dress that hits just above the knee and is teamed with a pair of red-soled black high heels. Her hair is pulled up on top of her head, with loose curls falling around her face.
“What?” She looks at her outfit, the one I picked out, much to her amusement.
“You look beautiful.”
“Well, you did pick my outfit. You make me feel like a doll sometimes.”
“I like dressing you. But I like undressing you more,” I murmur, kissing her exposed collarbone.
“I should be grateful you don’t insist on dressing me in a burka.”
“I don’t want to hide you. I want people to look at you and know what a lucky fucking bastard I am.”
Her cheeks flush before she looks away. I’ve noticed she doesn’t get shy or flustered unless I compliment her, and then it’s as if she doesn’t know what to do with it. Of course, it makes me do it even more. I love to watch my girl squirm.
“The meeting isn’t until later, but I want to take you someplace first.”
“Okay, are you going to tell me where?”
“Nope. It’s a surprise.”
“A surprise like a stripper jumping out of a cake, or a surprise like a serial killer jumping out of a drain?”
I look at her and laugh. “Those are my options?”
“Yeah.”
“Well, it’s none of those. Though, if you want to jump out of a cake for me naked, I’d happily chase you around a cabin with a knife.”
“I’m going to pretend this whole conversation never happened. I’d hate to have to murder you in your sleep.”
I yank her to me and bite her throat. “You love it when I use my knife on you. Don’t deny it. Your pussy creams so fucking hard.”
She lets out a shaky breath, but she doesn’t confirm or deny anything.
I take her hand and lead her downstairs.
“I’m taking the Benz. We’ll be back for the rest of you before the meeting starts.”
Conner joins us as we head out to the car. “You want me to drive or follow behind you?”
“No point taking two cars, Conner,” Nova answers for me.
