I had a friend, a journalist who would eat this story up and air it right away. Watching Benito’s numbers plummet was going to be like a birthday and Christmas all wrapped into one. Not to mention Monica, Briar, and Lucia would be safe from that dickshit.
Monica waited an hour before she left. Half an hour after she was gone, we vacated the house. We would not be bringing them here since the guards were familiar with it. I had a perfectlocation for them that they’d hole up in until the fire that would surely blaze died down.
When I went to bed that night, it was with a smile on my face. Benito Calvern’s life was over, and he didn’t even know it yet. This was going to be glorious.
CHAPTER THIRTY-FOUR
Penn
“Mmm.”Waking up to a blowjob was by far the best way to begin the day. Through the slits in my eyes, I watched Gideon’s head bob on my cock. He was humming and slurping and when a lubed up finger pushed inside my hole, hitting my prostate, I practically shot off the bed as I came down his throat.
“Good morning.” He grinned lazily as if he hadn’t jump-started my whole nervous system.
“Morning…damn, Gid.” I eyed his softening cock, glistening with come. “Didn’t leave me any?”
He chuckled, swiped his finger across the tip until he had a dollop of his release, and brought it to my mouth. I eagerly sucked on his finger, relishing in his taste.
I relaxed, my eyes falling closed again only to be ruined by Gideon tugging on my arm. “Nope, no more sleep. We have a very big day today.”
He was right. Today, Monica was leaving her husband and helping us destroy Benito’s chances of being our next governor.
“Fine.” I sighed and followed him to the en suite where we showered, brushed, and got ready for the day ahead.
“Penny! Penny!” Olivia ran over to me as soon as I was downstairs.
“Olivia, Olivia.” I smiled, and she giggled.
“Mila said I could play a song at her wedding ’cause there would be a piano so Jennifer has been teaching me do you wanna hear it?” She didn’t take a breath, just let the words tumble out of her overexcited body.
“Of course I do.”
“Kay, come on, she’ll be here soon and I want you to hear.”
Gideon grinned. “I heard it already. Enjoy.” He said it in a way that told me she clearly needed a lot of work.
I was right. Halfway through her song—at least I thought it was halfway—I still had no idea what she was trying to play.
She hit the last key and spun on the bench to face me. I immediately began clapping and beamed. “Amazing, wow, that’s so good.”
She bounced off the bench and skipped to me. “Thanks, Penny.”
I got down on one knee and hugged the stuffing out of her. “Jennifer will be here soon. Why don’t you keep practicing, and I’ll have her join you?”
“Okay.”
When I entered the living room, Gideon laughed. I held up a hand. “You’re dead to me.”
“What?” His laughter only got louder.
“You let me walk into that.”
He rolled his eyes and was about to say something else, but Danny entered with Jennifer behind him.
“Ah, Ms. Everton.” Gideon rose from the couch. “How are you?”
“I’m well. Is Olivia ready?”
I nodded. “She’s in the music room practicing the song for the wedding.” I lowered my voice. “She needs a lot of practice.”
