“What do you mean?”
“I can’t give you details. In fact, I wasn’t supposed to say that either. But when the time comes, you will know it. Do with that what you will. If you’re comfortable with marrying another man, then so be it.”
“I don’t think Rylan wants me like that.” She laughs now.
“I don’t see it that way. Not at all. But this isn’t about me. It’s about you and what you want.”
“Does it really matter what I want?”
“In this case, yes, it does. Let’s just say when a woman wants a man, and someone else is promised to him, there’s a way to handle the other someone.” I don’t understand what she’s saying, but I can see she’s speaking from experience.
“Did you take that chance?” I ask her. She smiles and nods toward my plate before turning and walking back to the counter. I pick up my fork and eat as I try to think about what she said. There isnothing, and I mean nothing, I come up with that would cause the Kings to change their mind on who they have chosen for me. They don’t care about love; they say it will come with time. But is that what I feel? Do I love Rylan?
The door opens, and he comes back to the island and sits as his mom passes him a plate.
“What’s with the look on your face?” he asks, and I turn to see he’s talking to me.
“I was just thinking.”
“About what?”
“Nothing,” I tell him, shaking my head. I go back to eating as Rylan stares at the side of my head. I pretend I don’t notice, but I can feel his gaze burn through. Eventually, he turns forward and eats his food as I’m lost in thought.
I’m not even sure how long we stay after we’ve finished, either. When I blink again and look down, the plates are gone, and so is his mom. I risk it and look over at Rylan while he eyes me.
“You okay?”
“Yeah. I’m fine,” I tell him.
But am I really?
Chapter 17
Rylan
We’re in the gym working out when I spot Syn on the other side training again. I hate seeing that motherfucker put his hands on her, but I can’t tell her she has to get a new trainer. I mean, I can, but he’s one of the best here. I watch Syn as she throws punches and kicks. It makes me smile, knowing she can fight back if she needs to.
“That girl has your balls, Ry,” Silas says with a laugh. I don’t try to deny it because he’s not wrong. I just don’t know if she knows that yet. From what Silas and Levi have told me, Angel said Syn thinks this is all about sex with me. It’s not. It’s more. So much fucking more, and I plan to let her know that really soon.
I go back to working out but keep my eyes on her through the window. She looks up, probably feeling my eyes on her and gives me a soft smile that I return. Syn. My fucking Syn. It’s exactly what she is. I’m sinning because of her. I was never supposed to touch her because she’s a princess, but the only ones who know I’m fucking her are Levi, Silas, and Angel. No one else knows I fuck her. They think I tease the hell out of her, which, according to the rules, is allowed, so I use that to my advantage.
“What time are we going tomorrow night?” Silas asks about the Halloween party.
“Whatever time we want. Hunter made it clear we could show up when we wanted to.”
“I’m just going to see how the hell he set the place up,” I reply.
“And for her,” Levi says, nodding toward Syn.
“She can have fun and party,” I tell him. Now, they both laugh.
“I heard she got some sexy little lawyer costume to wear. Something about a white corset top that resembles a dress shirt with some tiny shorts and a tie,” Levi chimes in. She got the costume I tied her up with and ate her pussy in the dressing room. Now I grin. Syn finishes her training, and I watch as she downs her water. I shove off the bench and head through the door toward her. She doesn’t see me as she walks toward the locker rooms.
I glance around, but I don’t see anyone heading that way or paying me any attention so I follow her in. She doesn’t see me come up behind her and push her against the lockers. Her head turns to the side, and she sees me out of the corner of her eye.
“What are you doing?” she asks. I lean in closer to her ear and bite the lob until she whimpers.
“I heard you got the costume with the tie. Did I make you that wet, little Syn?”
