“Done,” my dad decides.

“Is that how quickly you guys decide?” Violet looks shocked.

“Pretty much.” My dad takes a sip of his water.

“We have to draft plans first, obviously, and take it to the board, work out the budget, but I guarantee they’ll agree because there is nothing like it in the area. We own the surrounding ten miles of field one way and then thirty miles on the other. The hotel sits high on the cliffs. This would be awesome to do.”

“Sounds like fun,” Violet tweets. I love her accent. I can’t get enough of her or of that.

“It is. I do all the refurbs.” I take a sip of water too. I’m so thirsty. Violet was right when she told me earlier I needed to rehydrate myself as I would lose a lot of fluid later as she had lots of plans for me. She’s addicted… to my dick.

“That will be a great project to work on. Oh, here’s my dad now.” Violet rises to her feet, and we all join her.

Violet’s father strides in, apologizing with a giant smile on his face. “I'm sorry we are late. Viva had to return her two sons to their father’s first. She’s just visiting the ladies’ room.” He kisses Violet on the cheek.

“Dad, this is Knox, Lincoln’s father, and this is Eva, his wife.” Violet introduces everyone and they all shake hands. “Knox, Eva, this is my father, Anthony.”

“Pleasure to meet you, Anthony.” My dad taps the back of his hand in a friendly gesture.

“It would seem these two are smitten.” Anthony tilts his head in our direction.

“It would appear that way.” My dad smiles.

I place a quick peck on Violet’s cheek and she snuggles into me. She looks great tonight in a black fitted dress. My girl has dangerous curves. She’s spent the last two weeks relaxing with my family and tanning herself; she’s so bronzed and she looks like she’s glowing.

“Good evening, Lincoln.” Anthony shakes my hand. “Going back home in two days?”

“Yeah,” I say with a heavy heart.

“You’ll be back.” He winks. “But I will look after her while you’re gone.”

That’s a lie. No one looks after Violet. Not one of her family members has called in two weeks. The only reason we are here is because Violet organized this so our parents could meet each other. If it wasn’t for her two friends, Hannah and Ruby, she wouldn’t have anyone.

We all settle into our seats, and Anthony is the first to speak. “Now I haven’t exactly been truthful with Viva. I said it was just dinner out.” He looks like a naughty schoolboy as he tells us. “She shies away from meeting people, especially my family.” He looks straight ahead. “Oh, here she is now.”

As if the Red Seas part, a beautiful familiar-looking woman walks in our direction. She’s looking toward Anthony with a smile on her face. I tilt my head to the side and for the life of me, I can’t think where I have seen her before.

My dad and Eva both turn around at the same time and in an instant, her face falls and turns ashen when she sees my dad.

She stops dead in her tracks.

“What did you say your girlfriend's name was Anthony?” my dad asks him in a slow and steady voice, but he hasn’t turned back around.

“Viva,” he says, unaware of what is happening. I fucking don’t know what’s happening, but something is.

“And would that be a nickname for Olivia?”

My mind is reeling with confusion, and then the penny drops.

Oh.

My.

Fucking.

God.

“Why, yes!” he answers cheerfully, still oblivious.
