“Should we let this continue? I don’t want her to throw up tomorrow.”
“Ever the selfless one.”
Stop drinking.
Her eyes shoot in all directions. She raises the glass and downs one.
“That fucker wants to die.” When I look at what has Cato all wired up, I see the bartender leaning over the bar, whispering something to Chiara. She doesn’t seem to mind with the grin splitting her face.
That is the final straw as Cato storms away. I follow close behind.
When we reach the bar, the tequila tray is empty.
I shake my head at Aurora, but she stumbles as she flies into my arms. “Husband.”
It’s the first time she’s called me that, and it does things to me I can’t even describe.
“Wife.”
She grins, and nothing else matters, just her in my arms. The peace of the moment is interrupted when Cato grips Chiara’s elbow and drags her away over his shoulder.
“What is he doing? Kieran, stop him, or I will.”
“She’s safe with him.”
“I have to see if she’s fine.”
Aurora grabs my hand, and we follow Cato and Chiara down a long hallway toward the basement.
I bring us to a stop in a secluded corner. I cup her face and do what my lips have been famished to do––kiss her. “She will be his wife. Nothing will happen to her.”
“How did you know I was here?”
“Daniel.”
“Of course. Ugh, the traitor.” She scrunches up her nose in a sweet attempt to be angry.
“He’s there for your safety.”
She softens under my touch. “What were you doing?”
“I was with the guys having some drinks.”
“That’s all?”
“Yes.”
I love her jealous streak.
“I’m married to an incredible woman. I don’t want anyone else.”
Locking her arms around my neck, she bats her eyelashes at me in a flirtatious way, playing with the ends of my hair. “She must really be something to keep up with you.”
“Oh, she is.”
With my hands squeezing her ass, I lift her. She wraps her legs around me and I pin her to the wall. I want to fuck her so badly, but then I remember how I took her for her first time and I retreat. She huffs in annoyance.
“What is wrong, Kieran? Why are you stopping?”
