“And my kids?”
“Always under my protection. That never changes, no matter what occurs between us. You have my word.”
“But can you handle what that means? Having two young children competing for your attention?”
“You bet, baby. Rev and Olivia are badass. Not gonna be an issue since you’re gonna be my ol’ lady.”
She mulled that over and then offered a sweet, simple smile. “You free for dinner tomorrow?”
“Hell yeah, my sweet mama.”
Chapter 18 Diablo
“Holy shit,” Rev exclaimed, eyes wide as he spun in a circle. He rushed to the center of the living room, falling to his knees as he watched the Christmas train circling beneath the enormous tree I’d hauled in and decorated with a few of my brothers. A little toot left the engine, and he grinned. “I always wanted one of these!”
Olivia squealed, running across the room to the new dollhouse Gina spent most of the day decorating while the kids stayed with Bodie and Sasha. The other had been smashed, all the dolls and furniture broken. This house was more of a mansion with three stories and plenty of rooms. I even bought a little van for the family, which consisted of a mom, dad, little girl, little boy, and teenage brother.
And yes, also the damn gray cat.
“Oh, wow!”
Bright eyes glistening with unshed tears met mine. “Did you do this for me?”
Nodding, I pointed at her mother. “Both of us.”
Olivia tackled her mother, nearly knocking them both to the ground. “I love you, mama.”
“Love you, baby. Always.”
The happiness on my woman’s face filled my heart with warmth. When I told her I wanted to replace everything they lost, she cried with relief and gratitude. The smiles beaming on Rev and Olivia’s faces made it worth every dime I spent.
Olivia smiled up at me, her chin wobbling. “D-Dee,” she stuttered.
I opened my mouth to reply, but a single tear slid down one of her cheeks, rendering me speechless.
“Dio,” she corrected.
