It’s been the same emotion within a few days, and now it’s back and I don’t know how to deal with it. This isn’t like the wedding. When I married Brielle, it was easier than the idea of what I’m going to go through today.
I recall the day I stepped up from Capo. My father ensured I went through the due process. I didn’t skip anything because I was his son.
All my life, I’ve waited for this moment. The day I wake up on my twenty-fifth birthday, and I gain some form of independence, but I also inherit a world that will answer to me. A family, a clan, an organisation.
I don’t expect it to be easy today. It will be exhausting because I’ll have to answer to the men who worked with my father all his life.
They’re not going to take it easy on me and I don’t want them to. I should be treated like every other upcoming Boss there is and I will make it through.
Granted, there are vows and promises to recite, there’s blood to be spilled, and there is a contract that I will have to sign in the crimson that drips from my hand. The ceremony may only last the day, but the clan is there forever. And in a few weeks, Jordan will have to return to Black Hollow to step up into the Underboss position. He will have to go through all this bullshit like I did.
I inhale the early morning air, it’s fresh, and I close my eyes and focus on the silence. The only sound that fills my senses are the waves crashing against the cliff. The mansion overlooks the ocean, and each day I look out at the view, I thank God I’m able to see it.
I feel her before I hear her. She’s behind me, and I wonder briefly if she’s going to try to surprise me. But I can’t stop myself from saying, “Good morning.”
“You’re no fun,” Brielle pouts. I can hear the expression in her tone. She makes me chuckle when she does that because I find it so alluring, I want to drag her back to bed and show her just how fun I can be.
Turning on my heel, I open my arms to her and she snuggles into my chest.
“I wanted to wake you with something special,” she murmurs into my bare skin, then tilts her head to look up at me.
“Oh?” This has me rather intrigued.
“Well,” she starts shyly, “It’s your birthday, and you should be enjoying the morning in bed.”
“Is that right?” I ask her as I lean in to steal her lips with mine. “I think you should drag me back inside then.”
A soft giggle vibrates in her chest, and she takes my hand and leads me into the bedroom where I find Kai and Valen waiting. They’re both naked from the waist up, but from the way the sheets are draped over them, there’s more happening that I can’t see quite yet.
“Join us,” Kai invites me and I can’t deny the prospect of spending the day in bed with the three loves of my life sounds like a lot more fun than work. But I also can’t be late.
“Lie back,” Brielle orders, and the three of us exchange a look of confusion. She rushes to the stereo and turns on the sound system that fills the room with a soft, seductive tune.
And then, she dances for us. Her hips sway as she slowly undresses. She strips out of the short nightdress she’d been draped in, and soon, she’s naked on the bed. I watch her crawl toward me, and that’s when Kai and Valen shift and soon, I’m the centre of attention.
This is definitely the way a king should spend his birthday. They kiss and lick every inch of me, and when Valen and Brielle lean in and stroke my cock with their mouths on either side, I almost lose all control.
Kai moves up to my mouth, and he presses his lips to mine. The way his tongue sweeps along mine has my blood burning and my cock throbbing. I am so close. I can so easily come, but I hold back for a moment longer, savouring every moment.
Either Valen or Brielle cup my balls, and they give them a squeeze which sends me right over the fucking edge. When Kai pulls away, he kneels beside me on the mattress, and Brielle leans forward to kiss him. The slickness of my release still painted on her lips, and on her cheek. Watching Kai and Valen, and my wife kiss and lick at the wetness has me wondering if I can cancel the ceremony tonight and spend all the fucking hours I have in this bed with them. Because this is the hottest scene I have ever witnessed in my life.
When they look over at me, they offer me their biggest smiles and say, “Happy Birthday, Judah.”
“Well, I have to say, I’ve had some interesting birthdays in my past, and I have had celebrations that I thought were great, but that…” My words filter off into silence because I don’t have any way of describing how I feel right now.
“And next up, Kai and me are making you breakfast,” Valen announces. “Brielle will keep you company because you’re not allowed downstairs, and you’re not allowed to be alone at all today.”
When the guys leave, I know what they’re doing. I know why Brielle stayed back. She wants to talk. The look on her face tells me everything as she settles on the mattress, and tugs the sheet to cover her breasts.
“What’s on your mind?”
She looks at me in surprise when I ask her, and she smiles. “I wanted to hear how you’re feeling about today. It’s a big step, and it can’t be easy, especially when it’s on a day you should be relaxing with friends and enjoying the down time from work.”
She’s right, but I learned from my father there aren’t any days off. And then again, he worked himself into an early grave. Perhaps I shouldn’t follow all the things he’s taught me.
“I’m scared I’m not going to live up to everyone’s expectations of how I should be,” I blurt out suddenly. It’s been playing on my mind for a few weeks now. Even though I’ve been wanting to run the organisation all my life, there is still a lot of pressure that comes with the role.
Brielle shifts and kneels on the bed, the sheet now forgotten. She cups my face in her hands, it’s a gentle touch, and it slows my racing heart rate.
