As for my assistant, I got to have Sydney back. She recovered from her accident a while back and applied for her old position. Lexi was reluctant to let her take over, but eventually, she passed the torch over to Sydney. Now, that does not mean that my fiancé doesn’t go all mama bear on me and doesn’t check and triple-check everyone’s work.
I love it and won’t ever complain about that.
Unfortunately, with them good things, the bad ones come tugging along.
Okay, not necessarily bad; I might be exaggerating. It’s more inconvenient and annoying because who the hell could have ever imagined that my new best friend—aka biker daredevil—had a wicked witch of the west for a sister!
Foster sister.
Are you ready?
Kira fucking Clark. The Kira. The red-headed, heartless bitch of a chef who hates my guts, and the feeling is entirely mutual.
Yes, you heard that right. She is Julius’s foster sister, and apparently, she is going through some shit, so we all have to help her.
Hmph, my help goes as far as being civil at the dinner table. That’s it. Even though my kitten is nagging me to play nice and help out, I am not quite there yet.
Her disrespect still rings fresh in my mind.
Now, the good part? It’s been a few weeks since she showed up on their doorstep, and Kate and Lexi are still not talking to Julius for hiding Kira from them. Lex told me that Kate all but fainted when she opened the front door and saw Kira standing there. After all, she is their idol. They worship the ground she walks on and dine at her restaurants on a regular basis.
I am personally getting one hell of a kick from watching those two give him hell. Music to my sore ears.
“Will you help or not?” Julius asks me for the hundreds time. He took a liking to barge into my office on a daily basis and nagged me alongside my fiancé to help out his sister.
Honestly, I am still not sure what they want me to do about it.
I groan, “Can’t you guys leave me alone? I don’t see how this is my problem.”
“You are family now. And family sticks together,” the asshole deadpans me, and shit, he got me by the balls. Because, yes, they are my family.
The only one that matters apart from Lexi.
“I hate you,” I say and he grins, knowing I can’t say no now.
“I’ll have her call you and Lan?”
“Yeah?”
“Lexi couldn’t have found a better man.”
Fuck, he just had to go for the kill.
“Get out of here,” I say playfully before he sees my man tears rolling down.
Jules leaves with a smile and a nod, and I sit, marveling how I got here.
From hating the world, women, relationships, and love to having all of it and some more in a mere half a year.
In a week, the love of my life will be walking down the aisle toward me.
I have a genuine, selfless friend in my corner who picked me up during my lowest, kicked my ass, and helped me get the said love of my life back.Shit, I do owe Julius a favor.
I have more love in my life than I could imagine possible. The kind of love that heals all broken pieces of your heart. The kind that gives you wings to fly. The kind that makes you a better man. The kind of love you can’t contain.
The kind that gifts you a family.
I have a family.
