Aidan smirked.
“And Emma and Harper are up to no good, I suspect,” Logan said, nodding to Daniel.
“David, her security is with them, so he’ll keep me informed if anything happens,” Daniel said.
Logan laughed.
“You think? I’d say Harper’s threatened her private security guard within an inch of his life.”
Daniel crossed his bulky arms. “He’s four times her size—” Then shook his head and cursed. “Goddamn it, you’re right.”
Aidan snorted. “So much for powerful billionaires. You guys are pussy whipped.”
Daniel uncrossed his arms and slapped him on the back as they began to walk down to the beach.
“Your time will come, cousin. Your time will come.”
“Then you’ll understand,” Logan added.
Aidan doubted it.
He was surprised two powerful men had chosen such sassy strong women. Not because he thought the alternative was to have a wife who was agreeable and weak-minded, rather that he saw Logan and Daniel as individuals who, like him, enjoyed control.
Needed control.
Then he remembered seeing Harper with Daniel and how she had softened during a private moment. It occurred to him he might not have the full picture. Their intimate lives might be quite different from what others saw.
Still, while Aidan enjoyed the sass and humor of the outspoken recent additions to their family, it was Lily who garnered his attention.
Whose blushes had him adjusting his crotch and thinking of ways to get her alone.
It was her softness that triggered his dominance, made him feel alive, and brought out his protective side.
Such as finding out who this Matt was that Lily worked for and making sure the guy kept his dirty mitts to himself.
Such as finding out where Lily was right now. Logan and Daniel hadn’t said she was with the other women, so she was either with the others at the festival or on her own.
Aidan wanted eyes on her, and he hoped to steal her away to get the morning-after pill at a local pharmacy. Oddly, he wasn’t feeling as panicked about it as he should, but Aidan was certainly going to take responsibility for coming inside her without protection.
Lily couldn’t have stopped him at that moment if she’d tried.
She hadn’t, and that moment was playing over in his mind. Their eyes locked and the heat between them felt like an erotic inferno.
Then Aidan saw her.
Lily wore a long white dress with a pair of flip-flops, a crossover handbag, and her hair in loose waves down her back. She looked so damn pretty.
Relaxed
Well fucked.
His lips twitched, feeling like a caveman wanting to thump his chest and sayI fucking did that.
“Lily,” Logan called out, waving.
She turned and placed a hand on the top of the floppy pink sun hat she was trying on at one of the stalls, then smiled.
It lit up the whole fucking beach.
