Got what I wanted? What the hell does that mean? I have no clue, and Sophie wouldn’t believe me if I told her I haven’t thought of anyone but her since the first time I saw a photo of her months ago. So, I lie. Sort of. Every word is true, it’s just not the whole truth. “Because your sister ran away to get out of marrying me, and I didn’t want to go to war with your father.”
“I’m just a pawn to keep both of you from killing each other. And by marrying me, you’ll inherit all of Dante’s…business dealings when he dies?”
Holy fucking shit.
Dante actually caved and put me in his will? I wasn’t sure if he would or not, even if I am the obvious choice to take over when he’s dead. None of his three daughters could handle his empire. Hell, one is still missing. And the girls shouldn’t have to deal with that burden, to have all the blood on their hands it takes to be a ruthless gangster.
Rather than admit that this is all news to me, I just tell her, “Yes.”
With Dante making me his heir, it’s like an answer to an unspoken prayer. I’ve got an army of lawyers coming after me, threatening to take everything I have in the civil trial.
For the first time in nearly a year, the air moves in and out of my lungs a little easier.
“But what’s to stop you from murdering my father tomorrow?” Sophie asks softly.
“I guess he just has to trust me, and trust that I’ll put a kid in you before he’s dead.”
“What?”
“Our son or daughter will be Dante’s grandchild, so eventually, he’ll still be leaving his empire to his blood.”
She shakes her head, face paling. “Is that why…last night you didn’t use protection?”
“Exactly. Figured I may as well get a head start.”
“No. Nobody said I had to get pregnant. That…that is not happening!” All the calm from her recent orgasm is gone. She’s back to being angry again.
“It may have already happened last night, Sophie,” I tell her before I walk out the door.
Somehow, I know she’ll still follow me upstairs and meet me at that fucking gazebo, even if she’s furious with me. If for no other reason than to avoid disappointing Daddy or letting her redheaded sister steal her thunder.
But I get the feeling that she’s not going to be the docile little wife I assumed she would be.
Which is perfectly fine with me.
Too many women in my life have pretended to be eager to do anything to please me. I much prefer Sophie outright hating me then faking to like me for a second.
After all, she may have hated me last night, but she still let me fuck her. Let me lick her pussy just now even though she was furious I came inside of her and won’t promise not to fuck around on her.
It may take a little time, but eventually, I will break her again. Getting there will be half the fun.
Every woman has a price, I just have to figure out what it will take to buy Sophie.
But then again, she’s a spoiled rich girl. What if her price is higher than I can afford?

Sophie
My father and Lochlan expect me to get pregnant, to have kids? Why didn’t anyone tell me that before now? Why didn’t Vanessa? Does she know and kept it from me?
There’s no way I got pregnant from last night. And to be safe, I’m not letting Lochlan’s dick anywhere near me again unless he keeps it away from other women and puts a condom on it.
His tongue maybe…
No. I don’t want any other part of him either.
What he just did wasn’t unselfishly done. He wanted me meek, compliant. He knew an orgasm would have that effect on me to make sure I walked down the aisle like a good little girl. God, he even made me scream the word “yes” agreeing to marry him. He laughed at me yet again, which was even more embarrassing than last night when I jerked my hand away from his dick.
