“I have no wife,” I said heavily.“The only woman I ever wanted to marry left me, remember?”I sensed her gaping after me even as my muscles unlocked and I continued walking away from her, though everything inside of me itched to turn back and fuck her into complete submission before I left for my meeting with my mobster family.

I refused to give her the satisfaction.She didn’t need to know how I really felt about her.

Not now.

Not ever.

Chapter Ten

Evander

Iarrived at the mansionI’d grown up in, one that held too many bad memories for me to want to stay here for any length of time.I was just thankful I also had lots of good memories thanks to my brothers.

If sex and drugs were heaven on earth then this place had to be paradise, all I needed was to adjust my halo and forget about my many other darker recollections

I climbed out of my car, nodding at the soldiers standing at the front door.I’d already noted the extra security around the house.Ethan, my eldest brother and my don, wasn’t taking any chances.

The soldiers stepped aside as I paused at the front door, then raised my hand and knocked.

The door swung open shortly after and Sabrina stood there in a black lacy dress and a beaming smile, her silver hair falling down her back.“Evander, since when do you knock?This is your home too, you know!”

I shrugged.“It’syourfamily home now as far as I’m concerned.”

She blinked and shook her head.“You have an entire wing of the house that will always be yours, don’t ever forget that.”

Ethan appeared behind her then, his arms encircling her waist and her growing belly.“We might be trying to fill the house with children but we’ve got a long way to go if you think we’ll need any of the other wings of the house.”

I grinned.“Howisthe pregnancy going this time?”

“Well, we’re having twins,” Sabrina declared happily.“So I guess that means double the trouble.”

“Or twice as nice,” Ethan said with a grin.

Sabrina brushed back some of her shiny, straightened blonde hair.“Thankfully I’m not even a little bit sick, so I’m counting my blessings.”

“I’m the one counting my blessings,” Ethan said as he tenderly stroked her belly and kissed the top of her head.
