“I don’t remember slippin’ up, but she had to get that shit from somewhere.” He bent down, folding himself in half as he put on his sneaks and laced them up. “I need you to watch her. Make sure that she doesn’t abort it or give it away for money. She’s not the type of woman who gets pregnant and suddenly becomes caring toward children. If she’s pregnant and it’s mine, the baby will live with me.”

“And if it’s not yours?” I hoped he would not be cruel.

“Let’s figure out the what-ifs if they happen.”

“How long are we talking?” It was time to get down to business. I knew there was a catch somewhere. Where was it?

“She’s six months pregnant.” Domino leaned back in his chair, waiting for my response. He thought I was going to object.

I could see it all over his face. There were three ways I could respond. One, go ballistic about the fact that he was sending me away for three months. Or two, I could respond in kind doing what I was told. The third option was more my style. I was honored he was sending me to handle this. As silly as it might sound, sitting around there all day became melodramatic. There was a reason he was trusting me with this.

Domino was right, though. If Paula was carrying his baby, it would be better off with anybody else but her. She wasn’t capable of being a mother. The child would become a bargaining chip that would give her all the financial gains that she wanted.

“When is my flight?” I asked.

There was a tap at the door, and Domino glared at the person disturbing his meeting with me. “It better be damn important.” His voice echoed off the walls.

The door creaked open, and O filled the opening, his long dreadlocks draped in front of him. Girls fawned over his handsome face, yet most of the time, he was immune to them. He didn’t like the attention, an exact opposite parallel to Saint.

He held a sandwich in his mouth and a duffle in each of his hands. He wobbled into the room and dropped both bags on the floor beside Domino’s desk. O took a bite of the sandwich he had and looked at us.

“Am I interrupting something?” His focus shifted to Domino, who was eying him and his presumable behavior. “Bro, you’re past due on the grooming.”

“Did you call him?” Domino twirled his thumbs as he watched O start unpacking his bags.

“You know I did.”

He was agitated, but that wasn’t why he had determination in his eyes. “Tomorrow.”

Figures.Standing up, I grabbed the laundry bag filled with his poor choices for today inside.

“Then I need to go pack my bag. Details?” I paused just before I exited his office.

“We’ll cover them after dinner.”

The buzz of clippers chimed in, ending the conversation for now. I knew the important parts of the assignment. Make sure that this girl did nothing stupid for the next few months, bring the baby to him, and as always, I needed to stay out of sight while I was there. I could handle that easily.

Savage Kings Series, Prequel

She's aSavage...

Abigail

When the King gives you a mission, you complete it. But sometimes, even the simplest things are easy to screw up. I didn’t expect a partner to accompany me, used to working on my own. Especially not one that would be my roommate, and so damn tempting. Forced proximity keeps us breathing desire-heavy air together, unable to hide from the chemistry. Making a mistake could lead to fatal repercussions affecting more than just my life, but is it preventable?

Aaron

I need to handle all possible legal matters as they surfaced in Cincinnati. Beyond that, the details were scarce. I was assured that once I arrived, the missing pieces would be filled in. In a split second, the dynamics change giving me a taste of a woman I’d considered off-limits. Attraction lowers my guard and distracts us from the assignment. Will we be able to do what we need to, or will we crash and burn?

Get yours here!
