I cupped his cheek. “Did Richie come after you?”

Andro shook his head. “We went there to get your things. I thought maybe we’d play nice. He wasn’t having it. Pulled a gunbefore I could even ask to see your room. I’d say it’s safe to say your family isn’t happy about this.”

“I’m sorry.” I scooched closer, careful not to jostle the bed.

“It’s nothing, carñino. I’ve had worse. Though it’s been a while. I can’t say that I’m sorry about your brother, omega. I’d kill him again if I could.”

“Fuck my family. If this is what they do, then feel free to destroy them all.” The anger that coursed within me vibrated under my skin. How dare they try to take Andro from me.

Andro chuckled and pushed forward, pressing his lips to mine.

“Enough of that. The doctor will be up shortly,” Louie said as he walked back into the room.

Andro shot him a glare, and for a moment, I feared for my brother-in-law’s life.

“You’ll need to lie low for a few days, Andro. Give yourself time to heal. If word gets around that one of the Santoros got the drop on you, it won’t be good. We’ll spread the word that I killed Richie.”

“I can’t just sit around,” Andro protested.

“You can, and you will.” I pressed my hand to his chest, holding him in place.

Louie gave me his nod of approval. “Consider it an extended honeymoon. And if anyone asks, that’s what we’ll tell them.”

Andro frowned but didn’t argue.

My lips found his shoulder and tears dripped from my cheeks. “I’ll take care of you, alpha.”

“If I’m not leaving this bed, then you aren’t either, omega. You better be ready for that.”

I swallowed thickly, my cock hardening in the sweatpants I’d thrown on. “I’m always ready.”

JOEY

I was reluctant to leave Andro, but he needed his rest, and I needed air. We also needed sustenance.

Getting Andro to stay and rest, specifically in bed, required more stamina than I was prepared for. The first day, we waited for his bleeding to stop before doing anything vigorous. Once it did, Andro was only willing to stay in bed if we were…occupied.

Penetrative sex was off the table, but everything else was fair game.

Andro gave as good as he got. Sometimes, he seemed to enjoy giving me pleasure more than receiving it. I wasn’t complaining, but I was really thirsty and hungry.

It was our third day in the room, and while I loved it, we needed food. The housekeeping staff had dropped off clean linens and snacks, but we could only survive on those for so long.

I ventured to the kitchen early in the afternoon while Andro was sleeping. I knew I couldn’t be gone long, because if he awoke and I wasn’t there, he would come looking for me.

I noticed right away that I was being followed by a hulk of a man wearing black pants and a black shirt, his packed shoulder holster visible. I stopped in the hall and turned to face him. “Are you my bodyguard?” Andro and Louie were insistent that I would have one at all times.

He nodded. His face was stoic, eyes covered with dark shades, even though we were inside.

I stuck out my hand. I’d never had a guard before, so I wasn’t sure what the protocol was. “Nice to meet you. I’m Joey.”

He looked at my hand and smirked. “I appreciate the introduction, sir, but I value my life too much to touch Andro’s omega without his permission.”

Warmth filled me. I was Andro’s. He would take down any man who dared touch me. This was a bit over the top, but it was nice to be cherished. “Can I know your name at least?”

“Nil.”
