Page 41 of Attraction (Mobsters + Billionaires 3)
The three of us crack up at the thought of our Hopper scaring other people.
Rands, still smiling, asks, “What happened then?”
“Luca had Kej break land speed records to get us back to Manhattan. And…Luca’s jacket fell open, and I saw his gun.”
A line forms between Rand’s brows. “He was wearing a gun?”
I nod, still not sure if I was turned on or scared.
“So he reallyisa mobster,” Mads says, shivering.
“Yes,” Rand says reasonably. “But he’s still Luca, and I’m sure his main concern was keeping Ford safe.”
“I, uh, didn’t hate it.”
Rand grins. “It’s a little sexy when he shows his Mafia side, isn’t it?”
Heat rises on my cheeks as I nod. “Yes, it is.”
“Oh shit. Rand, did you see that?” Mads asks, teasing me. “Ford is horny for Luca.”
“Shut up.”
Mads narrows his eyes. “Wait. What happened after he brought you home?”
“Cesar had given us our desserts to go, and I invited him in,” I say as innocently as possible.
“Even after all of that?” Mads asks.
“I wish I could explain it. I just…I felt needy. And…”
I hug myself, already embarrassed by how this must sound. I’m thirty years old, talking about maybe my seventh kiss ever, and these two have so many more experiences and long-term boyfriends. Rand, who is more straitlaced than I am, definitely gets into some kinky shit with Joe, and Mads doesn’t hesitate to talk about how hot it is between him and Edgerton.
There’s no way they want to hear about my simple kiss.
“And what, motherfucker?” Mads asks, gesturing widely. “You cannot leave us hanging like that. Andwhat?”
I shake my head. “You’ll think it’s stupid. Stop trying to humor me.”
“I can promise you that we are not humoring you,” Rand answers, his face kind. “Neither of us thinks this is…insert whatever negative self-talk you’ve got going on here.We genuinely want good things for you, and we want it for you in the timeline that works for you.”
Mads nods enthusiastically. “Absolutely. Besides, you know how I love a good romance novel. This is totally like one of my favorite books come to life. Think about it. The mobster and the virgin?Yes. I would read the hell out of that book.”
I snarl. “There are other parts of my personality than being a virgin.”
Mads rolls his eyes. “I know that. What I’m saying is that your life is like a romance novel, and now you’ve cliffhangered us with anand, so I’m going to need some details.”
“Okay, fine.” I throw up my hands. “And…we ate dessert and danced in my kitchen.”
They both let out a sigh.
“He took off his shoulder holster and everything.”
Mads bites his lip, nodding. “Mm. There is something so fucking seductive about an armed man.”
“And there’s nothing more romantic than dancing in the kitchen,” Rand says dreamily.
I laugh, knowing this next part will get a big reaction.
