“Thanks for nothing,” I tell Jonathan. “I’ll be in touch.”
“Hopefully not as in-laws,” he says and hangs up.
Was that amusement in his tone?
He’s as much of a bastard as his grandson.
My wife walks up to me, looking more beautiful every day. It’s been over twenty-seven years since I met her, but she still looks as breathtaking as when I first laid eyes on her.
Elegant, majestic, and brutally demanding of my attention.
This woman hasn’t only changed my perspective about life from feeling unwanted to accomplished, but she’s also been by my side through everything.
The good, the bad, and the disgustingly ugly.
We don’t only love each other, we literally complete one another in ways I find hard to describe.
“Am I interrupting?” she asks.
I wrap an arm around the small of her back and pull her flush against me, then kiss the top of her head. “You’re never interrupting, princess.”
She strokes the lapel of my jacket. “Are you okay? You didn’t seem yourself back there.”
Of course my woman would pick up on my change of attitude, no matter how successful I am at hiding it.
“I don’t trust him and I don’t like how close Mia allowed him to get to her.”
“I know. I’m wary about him as well, especially since I’m seeing firsthand how similar he is to Kill.”
“Why do I feel a but coming on?”
“Mia truly loves him, Kyle. From my initial assessment of the situation, I can see that he genuinely cares about her and is not just putting on a show. Have you seen her around him?”
“I have. That’s why I’m disturbed.”
“You should be happy for her, not disturbed. Besides, we’ll keep an eye on him the next couple of days and if something doesn’t seem right, we’ll take care of it. What do you say?”
“I say we take care of him now.”
“We can’t. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen Mia so wildly happy. We can only judge him on his actions.”
“Then let’s hope one of his actions is to slip and crack his neck open.”
She laughs. “You’re so bad.”
“You know you love it.”
“I do.” She gets on her tiptoes and brushes her lips against mine. “But I love you more.”
“Fuck, princess. You‘re the only one who knows how to cheer me up.”
“Always.” She interlinks her fingers with mine and I let her guide me out of the office.
I’ll find a way to make fucker Landon disappear.
But I’m more concerned about my beautiful wife’s company now.
My one and only.
