When I get there, I stand behind her and wrap my arm around her, over her shoulders, holding her back against my chest.

“What are you ladies talking about?” I ask my sisters.

“You,” Raisa says.

“Obviously,” Ruslana confirms, rolling her eyes in exaggeration.

Jade giggles, and the sounds send a current of electricity through me, like a shiver of enticement.

I can’t wait to get her home.

Tonight, I am going seduce her. I’ve been holding off, waiting, trying to be patient, but tonight she is mine and I will do everything I’ve been dreaming of doing to her. Her legs will be shaking for an hour when I am done with her and she will gasping for breath.

“What have you been up to?” Jade asks, tilting her head backwards against my chest.

“Mm. Just thinking about you.” I grin.

“Oh, please, get a room, you two,” Ruslana huffs, waving her hand at us and hiding her smile.

“I am almost ready to go home,” I whisper in her ear.

She glances at her half-finished cocktail. “Me too, after this.”

“Yes, Radmir, after her drink. She still belongs to me for at least twenty minutes,” Ruslana says, gesturing for me to beat it and go talk to the guys.

I chuckle and reluctantly step away from Jade to start winding down the evening and saying goodbye to everyone.

I’m even more eager to get her home now that I’ve touched her. She is a drug in my veins and as soon as I get the smallest taste, I go wild for the rest.

When we do eventually leave, Jade is a little rosy in the cheeks from the cocktails and a fun evening.

I usher her into the car and clip the safety belt in place.

“I’m glad you got to meet everyone,” I say, climbing into my side.

“Me too. They are all really cool. They were welcoming and friendly.” She nods.

“I told you.” I grin.

At home, Jade says she wants to shower, but I grab her and tug her onto my bed. I can’t wait anymore.

Somehow, my room has become her room and she hasn’t slept in her own bed since that night I brought her to mine. Of course, this is exactly what I want.

Jade giggles as she flops down onto the bed next to me.

She looks up at me with those glittering hazel eyes.

Her dark lashes framing them perfectly.

“You are really special, Jade. There is a reason everyone likes you.”

She bites her lip, looking away from me and I take her chin in my hand to turn her face back towards mine. “I’m serious. Everyone there enjoyed being around you. Everyone in my businesses loves you, too. You are a good, kind and beautiful person. Someone I really enjoy being around.”

“I enjoy being around you too, Radmir. And you’ve been so generous since I came to stay with you since you helped me—“ she stammers a little and chokes back her words, sounding emotional.

“Hey, there’s nothing to be sad about,” I chuckle, pulling her close and holding her against me.

“I know.” She grins. “It’s just… there aren’t a lot of people in the world who would have done what you did, who would’ve helped me like that.”
