Is it wrong? I give no fucks.
Is it too soon? Don’t care.
Once that thought takes root, I see it behind closed lids. Again, I pull out and slam back in, and it’s almost too much. Christ. The things she makes me want—all of this wasn’t in the cards for me, but now I’d kill anyone who tries to break what God himself can’t.
Slowly, I regain my composure. My breathing returns to normal, and I open my eyes to see her soft face smiling at me.
“Hi.”
“Hello, love.” Aliana’s hair sticks to her, and I push it back, caressing the soft skin of her cheek. “Want to shoot some more or go relax in the pool?”
“How about we relax in the pool for a bit and later come back for another lesson?”
“You look like there’s something else you want to say.”
A lovely shade of pink grazes her cheeks. “There is.”
“Go ahead, sweetheart. You can tell me anything.”
Aliana takes in a deep breath and lets it out slowly, her shoulders straightening back. “I know I messed up by not coming to you, but I promise it won’t happen again. Being with you makes me happy, Callum. Truly happy, and I don’t want to lose this over a family that doesn’t care about me.”
“I’m not going anywhere, but I do appreciate those words.” I peck her mouth softly. “Am I angry? Yes…” she goes to say something, but I nip her bottom lip and shake my head “…but not at you. What your father did is not something I’ll let go of. I’m warning you now that he will face my wrath, but I do it because I love you. What he did is unforgivable.”
“I’ll accept whatever your terms are for going home, but I need time. There’s my job and school and lastly, my biggest worry—”
“Your brothers?”
“Yes.”
“Has he hurt them?”
“Once.” Aliana’s eyes gleam with unshed tears, and that hits me in the chest. He’ll pay for those tears. “Dad closed them in the basement of the house for a week. They were ten and twelve at the time, and all because I refused to sneak into another politician’s office and take a file he wanted.”
My poor girl.
“I’ll get them out of the country too.”
At once, those brown eyes widen. “You will?”
“Aye.”
“I’m so lucky to have met you, Callum. I’m so grateful—”
“Never thank me for taking care of what’s mine, love. I’m honored to do so until my last breath.”
“How about we grow old together instead?”
“You have my word.” And then I kiss her, slow and sweet, while my cock hardens inside her soft heat.
“Again?” She giggles, yet I don’t miss the clenching of her walls, or the slight flush traveling from her face to the top of her breasts.
“Always.”
“Thank you for coming today,” I say a week after Brazil, entering the room and taking my seat at the head of the table. It’s weird in a way to have Casper to my right, but he’s made up his mind and his sights are set on Boston with a feisty brunette currently giving him the cold shoulder. My father and his are also in on this meeting as is Archie, who’ll be staying to work as my third-in-command. The job of my right is going to someone else, someone stateside at the moment. “I know this is short notice, but I’d like to set my plans in motion before the end of the month.”
“No problem at all,” Mauro Collado says, extending a hand from across the table. His grip is strong and expression neutral, not scared, but I notice the way he takes in the room. Everyone’s position. “We are excited for this new venture.”
“We?” Casper asks, brows furrowed.
