“Perfect,bambina,” Cassius purrs.

“Kitten, you’ve never looked hotter.”

Salvatore helps me up, and then sits me down on the Lamborghini between his thighs, a wicked smile lighting his eyes as he cups my chin.

“How about a kiss for Daddy?” Salvatore slants his mouth over mine and kisses me deeply. He tweaks my nipples, tucks his shirt back into his pants and winks at me. “Back to work. Rest up. Eat a good dinner.”

I watch him and Lorenzo get ready to go, worry curling through me. I’m used to watching them leave, but the thought of being pregnant and losing one of them is the worst thing I can imagine.

“Be safe. Be careful, please.”

“We will. Don’t worry, baby, we’re just looking for De Luca,” Salvatore assures me, smoothing my hair back from my face.

“And then we’ll rip his fucking fingernails out,” Lorenzo growls as he slams the door closed on his 4WD and roars out of the garage.

“Please don’t torture Mr. De Luca,” I say to Salvatore. “He and Nicole have been used by my father. Dad’s the real culprit here.”

“We won’t hurt him. Lorenzo’s just frustrated.” He kisses me again and heads for his car. “Take care of yourself. Lorenzo and I won’t be back for hours, so don’t wait up.”

I glance down at myself, naked except for high heels and red pressure marks on my breasts and knees. My thighs are slick and shiny. My hair is tangled.

Vinicius cups the nape of my neck, his eyes glowing as he gazes down at me. “Just look at you.”

“I’m a mess.”

“Yes. A wonderful mess.” He scoops me up in his arms and carries me upstairs, unable to wipe the smile from his face.

“Someone’s happy,” I say, wrapping my arms around his neck.

He puts me on my feet in my shower, undresses, and joins me under the hot water. His smile has turned dreamy. “You know what? I am happy. It’s exciting, trying for a baby. It’s new and it’s something we can all do together. Are you excited, kitten?”

I wash my hair slowly, imagining being pregnant. Imagining the moment that I can hold my own baby. My men holding our baby. Could that sweetness really be ours? “My head still hasn’t caught up with the idea, but I am excited.”

“I never thought we would get to this place.”

“So soon, you mean?”

He shakes his head. “Ever. Salvatore wants children but Cassius never said one way or the other. He’s either totally for something or totally against it and I can never guess which it will be. Lorenzo’s not that different.”

“And you?”

“I never made up my mind, one way or another. Then we met you, and it just feels right. The others feel the same way. It feels right because it’s you.”

A delighted smile spreads over my face. “Really? That’s the loveliest thing anyone’s ever said to me.”

“You’re who we want for the mother of our children. Someone who’s sweet and loving and who will protect them at all costs. I know you’ll give them all the love they could want and more, and you’ll fight like a tigress to keep them from harm.”

I wrap my hands around his waist and gaze up at him. “All that’s true, but there’s another reason, too.”

“What is it?”

I look up at him. “It’s because I love you.”

His eyes glow and he cups my face in his hands. “You do?”

“You’re my beautiful, clever man who never fails to make me feel wonderful.”

“Well, that’s the loveliest thing anyone’s ever said to me.” His smile fades, but his eyes are as bright as ever. “I love you, too, kitten. Not just for who you are, but for what you’ve done for all of us. We were waiting for you for nine long years. Thank you for not making us wait a day more.”
