“It’s a scientific fact. When a woman’s cycle is irregular, her hormones are imbalanced, causing all of these symptoms. She’s been PMSing longer than usual this month. She was a little late. It happens.”
“What about the nightmare about her mother? Is that one of the symptoms in your textbook, smartyass?”
“I don’t know. Maybe that talk about the Lanzas and the Larvins triggered something in her subconscious that led to that nightmare.” He stood. “I should go check on her. Brush your teeth before you come to bed, please, Dad.”
Dad?“Brush my fucking teeth?”
“Yeah. Neither Jo nor I like the smell of smoke. It’s disgusting. You don’t wanna make her more uncomfortable, do you?”
I studied him. “Nah. I don’t.”
“Cool. See you inside. Don’t take long.” He slid back in the house.
That bastard knew more than he led on, and he wouldn’t share it with me even when I poured my heart out to him so we could help our Jo. When it came to make her feel better and happier, he’d never been his usual dickhead self. Something smelled off. What the fuck did he know and not tell me?
And why?
“What are you about to fuck up now, Rex?”
CHAPTER 10
Furore
“Did you two fight again?” Jo asked, her sleepy voice a sexy rasp that sent a pulse in my cock.
“No, baby. I just went outside for a smoke.” I took my place next to her and gave her a kiss. “Why are you up?” I glared at Rex. “Did you wake her?”
He made a stupid face. “Why would I?”
“I’m just restless tonight.” She adjusted herself, her ass to Rex, her head on my chest. “When I didn’t find either of you here, I got worried.”
His hand snaked around her hips and slid between her thighs. “If the lullaby wasn’t enough, you know what’s next.”
“I’m on my period, Ty.”
He bit her neck softly. “Are you now?”
Her eyes opened and gave me a smirk. “If you don’t believe me, check for yourself.”
I chuckled. Tirone was as obsessed with cleanliness as he was obsessed with Jo, and that was putting it lightly. He couldn’t even let his own cum sit on her face without wiping it off her the next second. He wouldn’t dare come near her bleeding pussy.
“Bad girl,” he whispered in her hair.
“Bad girls don’t get a lullaby to sleep. They get fucked to sleep.”
Was she just fucking with him or was it an invitation? I was down if that was what she needed. I ain’t scared of no blood.
My cock ached in my boxers as I took in her luscious body and the lazy look in her eyes,come fuck mewritten all over her face. Tirone’s hand twitched between her legs in what looked like a retraction. But then his face tensed, and his hand moved under the flimsy fabric of her short gown, hiked it up, exposing her panties, and cupped her pussy.
My eyes narrowed. “What the fuck?”
“You really shouldn’t have said that,” he told her as his fingers slid under the edge of her underwear.
Fully alert now, she twisted and put her hand over his, stopping him. “Ty…no.”
“Why not?”
“Because it’ll make you uncomfortable. I was just messing with you.”
