“It was a draw.”
“Thank God.” I release a breath.
“We’ll have a rematch next week.”
“Seriously?”
“Next time, don’t hide or I’ll draw it out more.” He flicks my forehead teasingly and I massage the spot, glaring up at him.
“Aww. And I’m so going to hide again.”
“Don’t be a brat.”
“Oh, please, you love it when I’m a brat.”
“Seems the appetizer from earlier didn’t teach you a lesson.”
“That was…just an appetizer?”
“More or less.”
“What’s the main course then?”
“You’ll find out if you’re a good girl.”
My panties soak at the promise in his voice. I love it when he keeps me in the dark about his plans and then I find myself all tied up and fucked to within an inch of my life.
Or when he introduces new toys that I swear are manufactured so he can torture me with them.
“Will you take a picture and post it on IG this time, too?”
“No. They only need to be reminded in another two weeks or so.”
“You’re so over the top, but I still love you,” I whisper. “So much, it’s insane.”
“Good, because I’ll make sure you always love me as much as I love you.”
And then he’s lifting me by the waist and kissing me.
EPILOGUE - CREIGHTON
ONE YEAR LATER
Whose idea was it for us to come here?
Right, my brother’s.
I’m left wondering why I haven’t punched him in the face as I glare at him from across the table and he smiles widely, even winking like the little twat he is.
The thing is, we’re at a family dinner, as in, with Dad and Mum. We finished eating, but there’s still dessert.
The worst part? This is only the first season. Tomorrow, in part two of this family saga, we’ll be joined by my three grandfathers—who like to bicker for sport, Nan, Uncle Levi, and Aunt Astrid. The twins and Glyn may join, too, since it’s a holiday.
If—when—Glyn brings Killian along, we’ll have a bloody circus on our hands. One, Lan still can’t stand him, Uncle Levi barely tolerates him, and Grandpa Jonathan still views him as the thief who took away his cute granddaughter. Two, Kill and Eli have grown a bit close, demolishing all the parents’ attempts to keep them apart, and, therefore, are always stirring up trouble.
I’m definitely kidnapping Annika the hell out of here before the circus begins.
If she hadn’t been so quick to accept my parents' invitation, we wouldn’t be here in the first place.
