I liked my guy at Ruthless because I knew he could handle this situation discreetly, he would get to the bottom of whoever was harassing my family, and he was doing it without alerting the press to the entire scandal. My mother knew I'd had to call him in again, but she hadn't asked questions. She knew my first priority was to keep this family safe, and I would stop at nothing to do it.
Family mattered more to me than the air in my lungs.
Pet mattered more than life itself.
Our love mattered and I’d spend the rest of my days protecting all of them.
“You’re so fucking beautiful it hurts to look at you.” I snaked my palms around her waist, melding her to me, just where she belonged.
“You’re the best thing that’s ever happened to me, Larz. You saved my life, then you brought me life.” Her words whispering across my ear were like a prayer. A beautiful prayer I’d never get tired of hearing.
I touched my lips to hers, love lacing my words. “Hush, Pet. I’ve got you...forever.”
THE END
