“What are you reading?” Finn pushes his way into my shed and sits on the hard dirt next to me. He’s vibrating with excitement and energy and can’t seem to sit still. Ants in his pants, my momma would say.

“The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe,” I smirk at him.

“Is there fighting in that?” He reaches over and takes the book from my side.

“Some, I guess.” I reach for it back, and he pulls it further out of my reach.

His dark eyebrows rise as he reads off the page I left open. I can see his lips moving as he reads the words slowly. He looks back at me and gives me a tentative smile. “How about you read this aloud, and I’ll share the candy my momma just gave me?” He pulls out a bag of rainbow-colored jelly beans and hands the book back to me.

I lick my lips as he opens the candy bag and passes me two pink jelly beans. He knows I love them. I nod, move over, pull another pillow from the shelf, and pass it to him. Once he’s comfortable and the candy is spread between us, I start reading from the beginning of the chapter out loud.

We spend the rest of the afternoon deep in the world of Narnia, filled with jelly beans, and enjoying the lazy summer heat.

“Fuck, Mia! I am so sorry!” He pulls me back so I can stare at him—fear across his sexy features. I’m momentarily still lost in the memory of us when we were younger before our whole worlds changed. Confusion races through my mind.What he’s apologizing for?Those were some mind-blowing orgasms he just gave me.

I raise an eyebrow and stare down at him. “I forgot to put on a rubber. Damn it, I’m sorry. I swear to you I’m clean. I never fuck without a condom.”

A smirk crosses my face as I stare down at his horrified and concerned face. He really is adorable and sexy. His panic makes him look younger than his nineteen years. “You’re good, Finn. I’m clean, and I have an IUD. The only people I have ever fucked without a condom are your bros. So as long as you trust them to be clean, we’re all good.”

The thought that I have now fucked all four of them at some point should bother me. After all, I came here to destroy them, not give my needy pussy a good time.What a good fucking time it’s been too!My mind throws back at me.

Though, I still can’t get past my nagging need for revenge, even after sleeping with all of them and all the shit that has gone down. My mind still requires vengeance; it’s simmering quietly like a ravaging disease just waiting to be let loose.

A chuckle escapes him and then turns into a throaty laugh. I have no idea what he finds so funny, so I wait with both eyebrows raised, and my arms crossed over my naked chest.

“They all forget themselves, too, huh? The Mia effect… self-preservation be damned.”

I roll my eyes at him and slide off his semi-hard dick, cum oozing out of me and coating my pussy lips and his leg. We both stare at my pussy, watching as it trickles out of me; his dick twitches at the sight and starts to harden further.

“Food, Finn; I need something other than your cock to eat.” I groan and climb off the bed heading towards the ensuite bathroom. I hear him laugh behind me as I walk into the bathroom.What a fan-fucking-tastic way to wake up.

Chapter 13

Mia

“We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark; the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light.” Plato

Iwalkintothekitchen, hand in hand with Finn. Something about our fingers being interlaced after all these years feels amazing and right. Six pairs of eyes look up and stare at us the minute we round the corner. It’s unnerving the way they are all looking at us. I release Finn’s hand and walk to the coffee maker, my skin crawling at the eyes still tracking me. I can feel Carter and Mateo’s eyes on the back of my head, boring holes into my skull.

I look up at Isabella, who’s next to the counter, and she gives me a mischievous smirk. “You look refreshed this morning, sister.”

I don’t bother acknowledging her comment, knowing she’s just trying to be a smart ass. I reach for a mug and pour a cup of heavenly warm goodness into it, then add milk as I try to ignore everyone’s eyes. The first sip has me moaning deep in my throat. Maybe after this cup, I’ll be able to function.

“Glad to see you’re enjoying my little wife while you can, Finn,” Diego smirks from across the island.

Carter immediately gets off the counter stool and shoves him hard. Before Mateo or Finn can intercept Diego and Carter, who are about to trade blows, Isabella drops the mug of coffee she was holding. The cup shatters, making a loud sound and freezing everyone in their movements.

The look of rage on Isabella’s face is one I haven’t seen very often in all my years of being her sister. Her blue eyes are glowing with pure malice directed solely in Diego’s direction. Her body moves forward in front of Diego. She reaches up on her toes and trails her long nails down the scar on the side of his face, “I will slit your throat before you marry my sister.” The vehemence and rage in her tone has my mouth dropping open. Holy shit!

“I will gladly bury your fucking body when she’s done.” Raven declares from his position on the other side of the island.

“You’ll have help,” Mateo utters through clenched teeth.

Diego and Isabella are still locked in a stare down, and I’m starting to feel like I’m missing something here. Is her rage at the agreement I made to marry Diego if he brought me Vincent Saint-Lambert’s head, or is something else going on here?

Diego looks away first and backs up from an angry Carter, retaking the seat his ass bounced off of when Carter shoved him. He doesn’t respond to either Raven or Isabella’s threats, taking another leisurely sip of the coffee in front of him, like two-thirds of the room didn’t just threaten him.

“When are we going to try to pull Theo out of that room?” Raegan inquires. Her face filled with concern, and like me scrutinizing Isabella and Diego’s interaction. I watch as she peeks up at Raven and quickly averts her eyes. He doesn’t even bother to try to hide the fact that he’s staring at her.What. The. Fuck.Hell no, I will break every bone in his miserable body if he tries anything with Raegan.
