“Thank you, husband. Spa treatment sounds good.” I giggle. “And a foot rub.”

“Noted.” Kyro kisses my hand.

Kyro

After ending up having to bribe my wife with snacks, to not come with me to see Rowan. Reyna goes home and I drive to the hotel myself. I walk into the hotel, take the elevator up and meet, as Reyna put it, ‘my date.’

Rowan sits at the same table he was at before when we met. “Hello, Rowan. What did you want to see me about?”

“Listen, I’m just going to be direct. What’s going on with you and my wife?” His glare is unmistakable, but it makes me smirk.

“What are you referring to?” I lightly am taken aback.

“She advised me that she didn’t want to come to your charity event at first, then changed her mind.”

I raise my brows. “Sounds like you don’t care much about what your wife wants.”

“And you do?” He shoots back. “Let’s be real. Reyna is a pretty girl, but not compared to my wife. So, if you’re thinking of trading up, think again.”

I looked over to security and gave him a look to lock this floor down. I do my best to think of my merciful wife.

“What are you doing?” Rowan snaps, reaching for the gun in his holster.

“Relax, Rowan.” I sigh as I put my hands up. “How can you let me clarify what’s happening if I’m dead?”

Rowan calms slightly, but his hand is still in his holster.

“First off, I know Maeve, because we dated a year before you met. She begged me for weeks to take her back, and I didn’t. That’s the end of it.”

“Did Reyna know?” He snarls again.

“Yes. I told her.” I make evident, “She handled it a lot better than you. She didn’t almost pull a gun on me.”

Rowan looks uneasy now. He knows he is fucked up and looks foolish.

“And Reyna thought I would be on my worst behavior.” I continue to chuckle. “Instead of talking to me, try talking to your wife. Instead of wasting my time with your insecurities.”

I get up from the table and fix my cuff links.

“Oh.” I pause. “The next time you try to disrespect my wife, I’ll hang you from a hook and watch you bleed out.” I warn.

“Are you insane? Did you forget I’m a police officer?” He growls back.

“I wouldn’t care if you were the president of this fucking county. Watch how the fuck you speak about my wife. This is your warning, courtesy of my wife.”

Rowan doesn’t say a word as I walk out.

Reyna

Kyro is taking his sweet time and I’m getting worried. What could they be talking about?

“So, how’s being a nanny to Nikolai’s baby?” Izzy is Nikolai’s nanny. Izzy has the mommy gene for sure.

“She’s such a good baby, honestly the amount he’s paying me is insane though.” She laughs. “I guess it beats fucking strangers to pay for my hormones.”

“That’s true.” I exhale, “I’m glad you’re doing well.”

“Move back to New York. Do you even like Miami?” She grumbles.
