“You’re the most beautiful woman we’ve ever met,” I tell her. “You’re kind, sweet and loyal. It’s all that we’ve looked for in a partner. We’ll never find anyone who fits in with us as much as you do.”
“I feel the same way about you,” she whispers. “It’s a miracle you and your brothers were the ones to rescue me that night. No one else would’ve taken such good care of me.”
“We’ll always protect you and keep you safe, Winter. You’re ours,” I remind her.
Her arms go around my neck as she captures my lips.
My lips curve into a smile against hers. I like how she’s getting bolder with us.
With a little coaxing, she opens up to me, allowing me to sweep my tongue inside her sweet, hot mouth. I drink up her soft moans and keep her pressed against me.
A growl escapes me as she suddenly breaks away.
“Did you hear that?” she whispers, her gaze turned toward the doorway of the kitchen. “Is someone in the house?”
I swallow the curse that builds in my throat. My cock throbs in my pants, fighting to get out of its confines. I wanted to have Winter all to myself but someone’s decided to interfere between us.
My phone vibrates in my phone. I reach for it and bring it out to take a look at the flashing screen.
“It’s Jacob,” I say as Winter looks at me curiously. “Hold on.” Sliding a finger across the phone’s screen, I take my brother’s call.
“Cole,” he whispers urgently. “Is Winter around you?”
“Yeah...”
“I have a surprise for her. Can you blindfold her and bring her into the entrance hall in like fifteen minutes?”
“What the hell are you talking about?” I grunt, wondering why he’s talking about blindfolding our girl.
He lets out an annoyed huff. “I bought her a Christmas tree.”
“Oh.”
“Just play along and don’t let her into the entrance hall until I’m done setting it up.”
A grin threatens to lift the corners of my lips. Winter’s going to be so excited when she sees the tree. She’d been going on and on about us having one in our home since we went to the Christmas fair in Reagan Square a few days ago.
“Is everything okay?” she asks, looking worried.
“Yep. Everything’s fine,” I say, schooling my features to avoid giving her a hint.
“Where’s Jacob? Is he home? Did we hear him coming in?” Her head swivels toward the doorway again when she hears a heavy thud.
“Jacob’s out there with some of our men,” I say, pretending to look grim. “They’re bringing in some heavy stuff for winter training, so it’s best to stay out of their way until they’re done.”
She gives an understanding nod and walks toward the counter. Picking up her bowl, she starts whisking up the batter again.
Winter is so darn trusting of us. It’s no wonder she’s been living under the same roof with her conniving stepmother without understanding her evil intentions. My possessiveness for her grows with every moment I spend with her. There’s no way I’ll ever let anyone hurt her again.
I watch her layer up a glass dish with layers of whipped cream and pieces of coffee-soaked cookies. A soft smile lights up her face as she works. It’s easy to see how much she loves to cook and bake. Once again, I vow to make her the rightful owner of her parents’ bakery so that no one can dare try and snatch it from her again.
My phone vibrates in my pocket. Taking it out, I check the incoming text that Jacob has sent me.
Everything’s ready. Make sure to cover Winter’s eyes before you bring her out here- Jacob.
Glancing over at Winter, I watch her dusting cocoa powder over the gorgeous tiramisu she’s created.
“Are you done with that?” I ask.
