“You’re family, Kiki.” I pull her into a quick hug, then motion between her and Eddie. “I have to get back to my woman, so I’ll let you two handle the details. Just remember—Mina can’t know about any of this.”
“Got it,” Kiki replies, flashing Eddie a grin. “He’s bossy, like his brother.”
Eddie bites back a laugh. “No one is as bossy as Ori, though. She’s lucky I love her.”
“On that note, I’m out.” I hold up my hands in surrender because I amnotgetting into the middle of that conversation. “Thank you.”
Mina is dancing with a few friends when I sneak up behind her and wrap my arms around her waist.
“You better be my boyfriend, because no other man touches me.”
“Maybe I can make you reconsider,” I whisper, delivering a gentle nip to her earlobe.
She turns with a laugh, wrapping her arms around my neck. “I don’t know. My man is pretty much perfect. But I’m ready to hear your list of attributes.”
I pull her close, letting my hands drift down to cup her ass. Sorry, kids—this is not a PG moment.
“Where to begin? I mean, I’m seriously good-looking.”
Mina smirks. “True.”
“Umm… I can cook.”
She moans and licks her lips. “Yes, you can.”
And now my cock is screaming for some private time with my lady. “Let’s see. What else? Oh yeah—I’m crazy about you. And if I recall correctly, I made you scream my name several times last night.”
She presses her lips against mine, sliding her hands along my chest. “You have an excellent memory.”
I nibble her lower lip, fully aware she can feel my erection pressing against her—knowing exactly what she does to me. “I also have a very talented tongue, unless you’ve forgotten that part.”
“Care to remind me?” She nods toward the main estate house, a mischievous smile on her face.
“What do you have in mind?”
She grabs my hand and leads me from the dance floor to where the shadows shield our movements. “We have an entire empty house to play in.”
“Damn, but that sounds tempting. Although, knowing us, we’ll end up falling down some rust-laden stairwell and wind up with tetanus.”
Mina wags her finger at me. “It’s a risk I’m willing to take.”
Truth is… so am I.
“But,” Mina’s voice cuts into my thoughts, “I’d rather not hurt any of your precious body parts.”
“I will need them later.” I fold her into my arms, sighing when she rests her forehead against mine. “How about I make it up to you after the party?”
“Sounds perfect.”
We sway gently to the music as I bask in the feel of her.
Unlike my brother, I always wanted to settle down and get married. Having kids seemed like a blast—even if it meant no sleep for the next twenty years.
But although I’ve dated a ton of great women, none of them ever felt likethe one.
The one I’d grow old beside. The one who, thirty years from now, would look back at our life and not change a thing.
Until now.
