I realize if I push too hard, he won’t tell me anything. Maybe I should get him drunk tonight.
Nico pulls off his beanie, shoving it into the pocket of his navy pea coat.
Inching up on my tiptoes, I run my fingers through his mess of curls. He’ll interpret my touch as a sign of affection.
I’m happy his curls are back. I smile on the inside.
“We made a great team today,” he says, his large hand brushing smoothly along my hip.
“Yeah, we did.”
He was right. We stood on business against that asshole. Chris might be protected by the Bratva, but it’s just a matter of time before Nico and I get to him.
“We’ll have to take out his protection at some point.”
“We will. But we’ll wait a while and strike when they least expect it.” He kisses my cheek.
“Be sure to find a dress for dinner tonight.”
“And PJ’s to sleep in,” I say.
“Lingerie, preferably,” he adds.
Of course he wants me to wear lingerie.
“It’s that time of the month. I’m buying PJs.”
He shrugs. “Okay.”
“We are in a sex agreement. There won’t be any.”
He grips my cheeks. “I’ll come down your throat.”
I stare at his pink lips, wishing he could eat my pussy.
His thick brows lower as he releases me. “I’ve fucked you while you were on your period a few times. If you don’t want to have sex tonight, just say that.”
I turn on my heel and stride toward the nearest luxury clothing store. Fitz holds the door open. Nico’s right behind me.
This is what happens when you fuck your ex-boyfriend who knows everything about you.
I glower as I browse the clothes hanging on a rack along the back wall. “Nico, after college I’m starting my life over.”
He exhales. “Is that so?”
“Yes, I’m taking time for myself. Then I’ll look into settling down.”
He chuckles. “Take time for yourself. My promise still stands. I will eliminate any man who tries to fuck you.”
I ignore his threat and continue selecting clothes to try on.
Two hours later, Nico and my bodyguards carry my bags to the SUV.
“Javier, Serenity and I are taking a walk through Central Park,” Nico tells him.
He nods.
Why is he insisting we spend time together outside the bedroom today?
