“You were ready to take those motherfuckers out. Alright, I’ll give her a fair shot, but you can’t expect me not to be cautious. There will be a lot of eyes on you when you take over. Half of them will condemn you for marrying Nova, the rest will think of you as a god for nabbing the real Fiore princess.”
“I don’t give a fuck what people think. You know that. They better be brave enough to back up their words, though, if I hear them.”
I turn to look out the window, running over things I need to do to finish getting everything ready.
“You close on the house yet?”
“Two days ago. The movers dropped everything off yesterday. Nova can decide what she wants from there.”
“Happy wife, happy life, ay?”
I huff out a laugh, unable to picture Nova happy about how shit is going to play out. But she’ll learn. We both will. As fucked as this situation is, it’s made me realize something. This has fuck-all to do with me paying back a debt and everything to do with me wanting to own Nova.
She’s fierce and so much fucking stronger than she even realizes, but everyone has soft spots they protect. I want to find out what her weakness is, what hurts her, what makes her sad, and then I want to fuck her mouth as she cries all over my cock. I want to break her, just like Aldo would, but only so that all her broken, jagged pieces will fit seamlessly with mine. She’s too shiny right now—too polished and refined. I want to smear her lipstick all over her face andwatch her mascara run down her cheeks before I paint her with my cum.
“You know Aldo won’t let her go easily, not when he finds out who she is?”
“I know.” I look at him and grin that feral smile that unnerves most people. “Let him come. I want him to.” And I do. He seeks to take what’s mine? Fuck that. I’ll remind him just how I earned my reputation.
We pull up outside Nova’s place. She’s leaning against the large iron gates, her stance casual, but her eyes dart around, looking for danger. I know Veck has noticed because he sits up and scans the area himself.
“I can see the appeal,” he mutters.
“I like you driving me around, Veck. Don’t make me cut out your eyeballs and find another driver.” The asshole laughs as I climb out and close the door.
The sound catches Nova’s attention. She walks toward us and climbs into the backseat when I open the door for her. I climb in next to her and slam it closed.
“Next time, it would be really nice if I had a little extra notice,” she complains.
“I called you,” I point out, taking in her dark suit and white shirt with a frown.
“I was working. It’s not easy getting someone to cover for me when most don’t want to be anywhere near Gia.”
“Right. I forgot about your job. Apologies.”
Veck starts coughing in the front, his eyes wide. Asshole.
She looks at me and nods. “It’s fine—this time,” she warns.
I reach behind her and grip her neck, pulling her closer. “I don’t like the suit.”
“I cannot tell you how much I don’t care.”
A smile spreads across my face. Oh yes, she’s going to be so much fun to play with.
“Once we’re married, you won’t need to?—”
She covers my mouth with her hand, shocking the shit out of me. I have to admit, she has bigger balls than most men. She looks at Veck before looking back at me, pulling her hand away.
“You can talk freely in front of Veck. He knows about our marriage.”
“I can’t stop working once we’re married. I’ve already cut back my hours, but I can’t walk away completely without raising suspicions.”
“And you expect us to think you won’t be spilling our secrets to Daddy Dearest?” Veck chuckles.
“I’d expect you to keep your secrets secret. It’s only for two weeks. Just until I’m supposed to marry Aldo.”
“Marry Aldo? Okay, time out, kids. Maybe you should let me know what’s going on, too because I’m under the impression he’s marrying Gia.”
