My dad plops down on the couch and chats away, talking about his time in jail and his plans for the future. How he's going to do better. How he’ll never fuck up again.

Jay and I are both silent. I cast glances at him, but he hasn't looked at me since my father walked in the door.

As I sit there, silently begging Jay to look at me, my hurt turns to anger.

Jay knows me well enough to realize I act out when I’m angry. I excuse myself from the room, feeling the heat of Jay’s eyes boring into my back. He couldn't meet my eyes head-on, but he'll stare a hole in my back as I walk away.Fuck him.

I flounce into the bedroom I haven't slept in since Jay and I gave in to our passion. It's become a storage space for my clothes where I come every morning to grab some clothes.

I rifle through my garments now, looking for the skimpiest, sluttiest outfit I can find. A micro mini skirt and a V-neck top, both of which are two sizes too small for me. I grew out of them sophomore year, but I can still squ

    AURORAMy eyes flick toward the door. Run! My mind screams. I don’t even know what lies on the other side of that door, but the red exit sign lets me know it at least goes to the outside. But then what?I’m in a city that is completely new to me. I don’t know my way around or have anyone to help me. Not that it really matters much. I didn’t really know anyone from the city I grew up in either. The people I did know would be quick to hand me back over to my stepmother, Mara, who would then hand me over to the man who paid a small fortune to have me.For a fraction of a second, I thought maybe I could do this. Arranged marriages aren’t so far-fetched. I think lots of cultures still believe in them. Though I’m not sure if this could be considered the same thing since Edward Blackwood actually bought me. It wasn’t as though our parents thought we’d be a good match or something. I mean, the man is at least twice my age. Hell, he’s almost three times my age.I met my soon-to-be husband at a

    “One of these days, you’re going to be carried home,” he grumbles as he cleans up the needles and bandages. He hands me a cloth to wipe my fingers off.I take it and toss the used tissue onto the small pile of garbage he’s collecting. “Today is not that day.” I grin and flex. “Still big and strong.”“And dumb,” he adds as a good little brother should. “For god’s sake. You had a gun pointed at you.”“It was in the middle of the street. The gun was for show. He had no intention of using it.”“You don’t know that.”“It was an educated guess.” I reach over to knock him upside the head as a good big brother should when Marco’s face appears in the doorway.“I’ve got some information,” he says.I fall back into my chair. “Come in. I’m all ears.”Marco steps inside and closes the door. “The license plate is registered under the name of Coal Works, Inc.”“Never heard of it.”“Me neither,” chimes my brother.“The general partner of Coal Works is also the head of a real estate investment trust f

    “You want to marry me?” I stare into his handsome face, not really understanding. “And if I do, you’ll give me your house?” I repeat just to make sure I have it right. I mean, I haven’t taken the pain meds today so I’m not hallucinating. All of this sounds too good to be true. It’s a win-win for me. It’s not much of a deal for him, though. I don’t understand what he’s going to get out of this.“If we’re married, what's mine is yours.” He gives me one of those half-smiles of his I’ve grown addicted to. It turns him from handsome to sexy. It should be illegal for him to be so good-looking.“I’m having a hard time following, I guess. Why? What do you get out of this deal?” I’m trying to find the catch here.I didn’t think Mikael looked at me that way. I know I’m supposed to be on bed rest, but there might have been a few times I let his shirt ride up a bit on my thighs to see if he would take a peek. I’d even brushed myself up against him whenever I could. But he always quickly retreats.

    “I’ve always prided myself on my control. With you I don’t have it.” He drops his forehead to mine.“You might not like that, but I kind of love it. Thank you for admitting that to me.”He smiles, lifting his head. “You’re far too good for me, but you’ve already agreed you’d marry me.” He reaches into his pocket and pulls out a box. “I should have given you this already. We do the bands at the ceremony.” He opens the lid to reveal a stunning engagement ring.“Mikael, it's too much.” I stare at a giant emerald-cut diamond with a halo of diamonds all around it, making it even bigger.“I wouldn’t want anyone to miss it. The world needs to know you’re mine.” He smirks.“No one is going to miss that.” I laugh.“Give me your hand.” I hold it up, letting him slide the ring on my finger. “Now, are you going to get your dress on or do I have to carry you down in your robe and make the clergy marry us with his eyes closed because he’s not seeing you in only a robe when you have this on undernea

    “What the hell?” I mutter when I don’t see my Kindle on the nightstand. I slip off the bed and look under it before I start pulling back the covers.“Looking for this?” My head jerks up at the sound of Mikael’s deep, sexy voice. He’s in his normal suit, but he has my Kindle in his hand. I mean, I didn’t think my husband could look more handsome, but I was wrong.I start to grow wet. The man has trained my body or something. I see him and know pleasure is right there within my grasp if I want it. Mikael is always willing to give it.“Why do you have my Kindle?” I come around the bed.“Trying to see what it has that I don’t.”“What?” I laugh, holding my hand out for it.“You give it more attention than me.”“Are you jealous of my Kindle?”“Yes,” he says simply. I’d actually been joking. “I’m jealous of this robe.” He grabs me, pulling me into him, his mouth coming down onto mine. The kiss quickly grows. Mikael suddenly pulls back. I was expecting him to lift me and carry me back to the

Knife wounds are not.”The car is running when we reach it. Another security officer, Randolph, is at the wheel. He takes off as soon as the doors are closed.Marco continues his debriefing. “There were four assailants. One died, two were injured badly. The fourth escaped in an unmarked black Ford. The two that are injured are at the hospital. I don’t know if we’ll be able to question them.”“I take it despite the lack of gunshots, someone notified the police?”“Yeah, a new intern trying to be helpful.”“I’ll call Chief Jones.” I dial up the man that I give a million dollars to every year for precisely times like these.“Ackles, it’s been a while.” The head of the police sounds wary.“I don’t like to bother you as I know you’re a busy man.”“So you only call for important matters?”The chief has always been smart. “Precisely.

    There’s no need to explain things. I did what I had to do. Downstairs, the mistress is in the kitchen wearing a robe and making coffee.“Do you have somewhere to go?” I ask. “Clean-up team will be here shortly.”She taps her spoon against the side of her mug. “Do I have to leave?”I consider her request for a moment. It’s not as if the crew will do anything worse than I’ve already done. They’re just here to erase the evidence. “No.”She gives me a sunny smile. “Then I’ll stay. It’s my home, after all. Why should I leave?”The home was the price of her silence. It was worth it. I give her a nod and make my way toward the door.“The girl you saved—the one Edward wanted—”At the door, I tense. “Yes?” I ask.“She okay? I heard Edward kind of beat her up.

    “Open this door, you pussy.”“Fuck off.”“C’mon, let me in.”Zane sighed and cast a sour look toward the door but climbed to his feet nonetheless. He opened the door and returned to his tequila.“This is pathetic,” Vinceremarked, taking in the general disarray of the room and the Zane’s overall sense of self-loathing. “What is happening here? I can tell you what’s not happening — personal hygiene,” he said, waving away the stench of Zane’s unwashed body. “Jesus, open a damn window. You could choke an elephant.”Zane smirked, unmoved by his twin’s disgust. “I’ve resigned myself to wallowing in my own filth because it’s where I belong.”Vince rolled his eyes, irritated.“When did you grow ovaries? This is ridiculous. All this over one chick?”“She’s not just a chick!” Zaneshouted, slamming his fist down on the table so hard that the tequila nearly spilled. “She’s the mother of my daughter.Don’t you get it?” He stared hard at his twin, unable to contain his fury. “She’s the most amazi

    Fresh arousal stabbed her as he withdrew his finger and replaced it with the head of his cock. He began the slow push and sheopened for him, eager to feel him penetrate her completely. “Tell me your fantasies, love,” he said with a grunt of pleasure as he seated himself more fully inside her. She groaned, unable to form words as the sensation of being utterly impaled swamped her ability to think clearly. “Tell me how you dreamed of my cock…”“Every night,” she gasped, arching deeply to accommodate Zane’s length. “I fantasized about you fucking me, like this, just like you did before. Ohhh, Zane!”His thrusts became harder and her tightened, pearled nipples rubbed against the comforter, adding another layer of delicious sensation that nearly sent her tumbling over the edge. “Oh God, I can’t hold back!” she admitted, shocked by how quickly she’d reached the point of no return but Zane didn’t mind, in fact, he seemed just as wild to crash into that wall as she was.“That’s it, baby,” Za

Vince offered terrible counseland Dillon was busy with his own impending fatherhood.One person stood out in his mind but he was reluctant to go down that road for fear of what she’d say. But even as he feared this person’s honesty, he trusted her intuition unlike anyone else."Penny?" he asked when she answered the line. Her relieved sigh on the other told him volumes."It's about time you called. I thought I was going to give birth before you came to your senses. Now fill me in with the details; I want to know everything."By the time he’d finished, he felt emotionally drained.“Zane, don’t you see what theanswer is?” Penny asked.“If I knew the answer I wouldn’t be tied up in knots,” he grumbled.

    If good intentions accounted for anything, Zane was a damn angel. He’d planned to stay in the hotel and watch Pay-Per-View or even catch up on his reading on his e-reader app on his smart phone but the minute he saw his twin grinning from the peephole, he knew his night was not going to be spent inside that room.“What are you doing here?” heasked Vince as he let him into the room. “I told you to stay home.”“Yeah, but I heard the yearning in your voice that practically begged for me to come and rescue you so get dressed, slap some cologne across your face and let’s see what’s shaking in this town.There’s sure to be a couple of hot bodies available for a little between the sheets action and I, for one, could use a little stress-relief.”“What happened to your planswith the sub and the dungeon?”“Penny happened,” Vince said wryly. “She found out and gave me a ration of shit for trying to drag Dillon out for a bit.

    She’s everything I never realized I wanted until I saw her little face. I can’t take the chance that you’ll change your mind when things get tough.” He was perplexed until she added, “When I found out I was pregnant, I knew it was yours because I hadn’t been with anyone else since. So I did a little checking around. It wasn’t hard to dig up some unflattering stuff.”“Like what?”“Are you sure you want to know?”At his determined nod, she continued,“You’re a player who likes to party all the time and you’ve left a string of broken hearts in your wake, as well as someone who killed herself off the roof of your building. I can’t expose my daughter to that life. You have to understand, I want a traditional upbringing for my daughter and you simply can’t provide that with your background and your lifestyle.”At the mention of Isabel, Zanefelt a wave of shame.

    Zane couldn't believe what hewas seeing. The entire drive to San Jose, he kept telling himself, this was all likely a ruse, some game to shake cash from his wallet. But as his gut tightened with instant recognition of the long-legged strawberry blonde, he remembered the night they’d spent together with frightening clarity. When she’d said names hadn’t been necessary, truthfully, he hadn't believed her. He’d figured after a little pillow time, she’d give up her identity — mystery solved. Girls always wanted a second round with a Mackenzie. And given how many times he'd made her squeal, he had arrogantly assumed she’d return begging for more. But that wasn't how the next morning had gone down at all."Where you going?" he asked sleepily when he realized she was no longer in the bed. He found her fully dressed and trying to find her shoes. "It's so early."She smiled and, having found her shoes under the bed, slipped them on her feet and grabbed her purse. "I had fun but it's time to go

Was this some sort of trick?There were plenty of people who wanted a piece of a Mackenzie, but only an idiot would stoop to something so easily disproved…unless it was no ruse and they had the DNA to back up their claim.Sweat dampened his brow and he wiped it away as he dropped the paper to the table and stalked away, needing a moment to collect himself.“You look as if you’ve just seen your past flash before you and you’reabout to fall over in a faint,” his twin brother Vince joked as they passed in the expansive hallway of their family home.When Zane didn’t offer a rejoining quip, Vince double-backed and followed him with a subtle frown. “What’s wrong?” he asked. “Is it Penny?

They are talking a mile a minute about their day, as Dylan suddenly picks me up and sits me on the kitchen counter.“How about we make Mommy dinner while you tell her all about the play you’re going to be in?”My ears perk up at that. “What kind of play?

The smell of his cologne is overpowering.“What can I get you two?” the pretty bartender asks us.“I’ll have a whiskey; she’ll take a merlot,” he tells her, ordering for me.Gross. I hate wine. I don’t correct him or change my order. I wasn’t planning on drinking anyway.“Maybe the wine will do more than loosen you up,” Mark whispers against my ear, making me jump.
