Now I see why these two look familiar. Frank is the spitting image of them but dare I say even prettier. My heart stops, and my throat closes, forcing me to look away.He is way too fucking fine!

“Anyway, here,” Frank speaks and hands Genesis his car keys before turning to me. “Jessica, this idiot will take you back home. I need to go home for a bit, but I swear I—” I place my finger over his lips, quieting him and kissing his cheek.

“Thank you for today. I hope you feel better.” From the corner of my eye I see both his brothers’ eyes widen in shock, but Frank has my full attention.

“You’re so unfair.” He kisses my finger, and I stand as his brother Gannon snorts and picks up the apparently meager bags he spent thousands of dollars on today.

“Bye, I’ll text you, okay?” I wave and he sits there frowning. He nods as his brother says something to him in his native tongue and hands him a bottle of what looks like meds.Is he sick?

Chapter 6

Vindication

FRANK

“What the fuck is wrong with you?” Genesis cocks his head to the side, frowning.

“Fuck if I know,” I clutch my head, pissed I had to end my date with Jessica early, but with the way I’m feeling… there’s no way I could have stuck next to her. My head is so jumbled right now. All I could think about was her.

How good she smelled. How sexy her hips looked as she walked. How cute her laugh was when she made a corny joke. How pretty her smile was when she saw something that piqued her interest.Just how fucking adorable my wife is in general.

The entire time, I just wanted to pull her in my arms and kiss her all over, but when I saw her touching that flea, my body was set on fire and I couldn’t calm it down.

Even her smile broke my heart. I wanted to punish her for lying to me… she made a promise and broke it, and I couldn’t figure out if I wanted to fuck the shit out of her, have her apologize and beg for mercy for what she put me through, get on my knees and beg her never to touch another maggot again, or pluck the eyes out of every son of a bitch in this mall that dared to look at her with lecherous eyes.

“Well, you look like shit,” Genesis calls out and I hold up the middle finger, popping the medicine cap.

“Fuck you,” I snarl, shaking four pills into my hand, downing them and massaging my temples. It took everything in me to let her leave my side, but I had to. Whenever she’s near me, I lose my mind, and my thoughts turn to mush.

“Come on. I’ll take you home. Mom’s worried sick about you,” he asks as he holds a hand out to me and I take it, instantly feeling lighter. As much as I hate being around my idiot brothers, when we are next to one another, our emotions are much less out of wack.

“Fuck that. Did that asshole give you what I asked for?” I clutch my head, dragging my wig and throwing it in the back seat before getting in the car.

“Here.” He smacks a manila folder into my chest, and I quickly open it, reading its contents with a smile. “I take it you’re going hunting?”

“Yeah. Why? You want to come?” I flip through the file and he pauses, thinking.

“Sure, why not? It’ll be the first gift I give my baby sister-in-law. She’s adorable, by the way.”

“Right?!” My eyes light up, turning to him, forgetting about the files. “She’s smart too! And did you know my baby is the first girl to start on the football team in school history?!”

“Damn, my little sis is that girl, huh? We should start attending her games.”

“Yeah, I have to study the rules. It’s fucking tedious, but for her, it’s worth it.” I turn back to the files, “But first, I want to deal with this fucker.”

“You’re acting uncharacteristically. Do you like her that much?” Genesis raises a brow, and I lean my head back, thinking about her.

“Like? Hell, I don’t know what the fuck this feeling is, but I just know I want her. No, Ineedher. Maybe once I’ve locked her away for only me to enjoy, then my heart will stop being on the verge of exploding every time I think about her,” I grunt, and he smiles.

“Seems fun. I want it.” His eyes light up with excitement, and I snort unsurprised.Greedy bastard.

After I commit everything to memory, I put the files back into the manila folder, chuck it into the back seat, and close my eyes, thinking about my Jessica and how soft her lips are.It’s only been a day…but I can tell this is the right way to go about it. Just based on the tiny kisses she’s letting me sneak in, she’s completely let her guard down around me.

Hell, I can tell I’m doing the right thing because I immediately felt her go stiff when my brothers walked up. She was on edge. I noticed how she curled her lip if a guy even looked at her wrong.

Yeah, Jessica is on guard against all men, and she has her emotions in check. I can even feel her drawing the line between us. Those light kisses I gave her would have sent other women crumbling at my feet, but I feel like she’s in control while I’m losing my fucking mind here.

I must have dozed off because I’m woken up to gravel being crushed under the wheels of the car, making me sit up and rub my face, headache still buzzing hard as fuck, if not worse.
