“Do you think you can hold your breath long enough to make me come down your throat?” I mutter against her neck.
“I’ll give it my best shot.” She smiles. “Daddy.”
CHAPTER FORTY-FOUR
Gianna
Blowing my hair out of my face, I continue on my rampage through my luggage to find an outfit appropriate for tonight's activities. See, I thought it was going to be a simple kill him in his sleep job that didn’t require quite the glam that has now been thrust upon me.
Our sex education morning was rudely interrupted by Romeo and his intel. But now I’m excited for more reasons than Colten’s dick… we have an exact location for not just Nikos, but his brother and cousins.
Turns out, Nikos is forty today, and those dumbasses have planned an exclusive event on the pier. It’s invite-only. But I’ve always enjoyed being where I don’t belong, and Nikos is about to have a birthday he will never forget.
We’ve switched from sex mode to coordinated attack mode. There’s a knock on my bedroom door, so I spin round and find Colten, shirtless, leaning against the frame. “One of Enzo’s guys is going to drop off some better weapons and provide backup should we need it.”
“Hmm, okay,” I mutter, tossing another dress onto the bed. Hand on hip, I stare at it. Too… boring.
Colt’s eyes drag down my body, as if he’s ready to bend me over the bed. It’s probably the matching panties and bra set I have on.
“What’s the matter, viper?” Colt asks behind me.
I want to make a scene. I want Nikos to know I dressed for the occasion.
“I don’t know what to wear to a murder party, Colten.”
He chuckles, and then he’s right behind me, breath against my neck.
“Option one… you could wear some sexy beach outfit; all the men are going to die anyway, so that is acceptable.”
I scoff as his arms wrap around my waist.
“Option two… there’s a mall a few minutes down the road. We’ve got a few hours before we need to leave.”
I lean my head back against his shoulder. “Do you have a suit?”
“You honestly believe that I packed a suit?”
I smile. “You looked so handsome on our wedding day.”
I’ve known for a long time that my future would involve being married off at my father's wishes. I haven’t stopped to think about what my ideal man would be. I kinda assumed I’d one day murder my husband and then find the man of my dreams. But, in this case, Colten is the man I’d want. My ideal. I guess it’s lucky I’m already married to him.
His hand slides up my sides. “I’m glad you approved.”
He rummages around in his pocket and slides a black card into my mouth. I spit it out into my hand. His black Amex stares back at me.
“Aw. Colt, do you think I’m poor?” I say, pouting my bottom lip.
“I’m treatin’ my wife like any good husband should.”
I grin. “Don’t I owe you nearly a million dollars for all the sex we’ve had today? Wasn’t that the agreed price?”
His eyes shift away from me. “We never shook on that; I’ll let today slide.”
I dramatically blow out a breath. “Thank god, you were about to bankrupt me.”
He chuckles, and my heart skips a beat. “Take the card, buy whatever your heart desires; I’ll wait here for our deliveries. And then…” He pauses, spinning me to face him, gripping my waist.
“You’re going to choke on my dick in the shower to say thank you.”
