“Not behind bars,” I announce. “Their brother already went out that way. You know how weird those two brothers are.” Everyone in the room nods. I catch King’s eye, and he grins. The Titans are a weird fucking bunch, too. “I think once they get arrested, the walls will start closing in, and they won’t be able to handle it.” Everyone stares at me, waiting to hear more. “A murder suicide. One weirdo shoots his weirdo brother before turning the gun on himself.”
Steel Titan arches his brows and leans back in his seat. If I didn’t know any better, I’d think he was impressed.
“Well, God damn, Hunt. Who knew you were so fucking diabolical? I like the way you think, and I have the perfect guy to do it.”
Chapter 44
Dax
I don’t trust this woman as far as I can throw her. I look through all the banking apps, and she hasn’t made any purchases today. At least not yet. When I left her deceptive ass, she was in the kitchen, looking angelic while sketching and looking over her business plan.
She also said she found the perfect place on Main Street to open her shop. It’s a former dress shop that closed eight months ago after the owner had a stroke. It’s well-maintained and only needs a few repairs. I kissed her temple and left. I was immediately off balance because her nosy little ass didn’t ask me where I was going or what I was going to do.
She asks that every day, and every day, I have to tell her it’s private. Nosy ass woman. All she did today was smile sweetly and tell me she’ll see me later. After I slipped into the garage, I stood behind the door for five minutes, only to be met with silence.
“King, does Eden ever press you to tell her anything about—”
King cuts me off before I can finish. “No. She knows I can’t talk about it, and she respects that.”
Why can’t my wife give me the same treatment?
“You having marital problems already?” Preacher puts one of his hands on my shoulder. He looks down and shakes his head in disapproval. “How the hell you have problems and King doesn’t?”
“Why the fuck would I have problems?” King seems a bit offended by Preacher’s comment.
“How do you get her to do what you want?” Preacher asks.
“I don’t,” King says. “She’s not a dog. Why would I want her to do what I want?”
“She loves his ass. That’s why.” Preacher shakes his head sadly at me, and I toss a paperclip across the room in disgust.
“Yeah, but she doesn’t respect my boundaries because she loves me.” King grins while he looks around. “And she does love me. She loves me a lot, but she does those things because she trusts me. That’s the key.”
“King is dropping gems,” Preacher says.
I let out a laugh devoid of any joy. “She trusts you until she finds out you blackmailed her father. Remember that little detail?”
King stands so abruptly that his chair falls back. I remain in my seat, unbothered by his tantrum. I’m angry, and I need someone to take it out on.
“Don’t talk about that,” he mutters. “That shit happened years before I met her, and she never needs to know. If Eden finds out, so does Cori. You think she’s pissed at you now?”
He doesn’t say more, but I get it. King did the work, but it was with my approval. If this gets out, my wife will be angrywith me, too, because not only does she love Eden, she also loves Eden’s parents.
I can’t catch a fucking break with this woman.
She lies back on the bed with her ass practically hanging off. She spreads her legs, and her beautiful, pink pussy glistens before me. It’s dripping wet, and she bites her bottom lip and throws her head back.
I roughly grab her leg and wrap it around my naked waist. I rub my dick from the top of her pussy, down her clit, and stop at her entrance.
“Fuck me,” she moans, and since I’m a man who always gives his wife what she wants, I thrust all the way inside of her.
“Oh, fuck, yeah.” I take her rough and hard. My dick goes as deep as it can, and she greedily takes every last inch of me. Her pussy clenches around me, but I stop fucking her.
“I’m not ready for you to come yet.”
“I’m ready.”
I slide my free hand around and slap her bare thigh. “Be patient. Don’t I always give you exactly what you want?”
