My father organized a husband for me. He needed me to get married to him for his benefit but never thought about mine. Where I come from our fathers told you who you should marry. Women are nothing but pawns for them to toy around with. I was prepared for a ruthless husband like my father was, but I was surprised when I met Dex. He is patient and honest. His father and his brother want him to be as ruthless as them. My father wants control and money. Dex has the power to end them all if he gets help from his biggest enemy who was once a friend.

He gives me a small nod while walking into the kitchen. "But having to defend yourself to someone you love or loved is different than defending yourself to a stranger." My eyes start to burn as I look away from him. I take a few deep breaths. "I'm here because I want to be. Not out of pity or regret. You are my family, and I will protect you until my last breath." A few tears slip out as I look back at him. His eyes drop to my tears before he looks back into my eyes. "I can't have you here, Kenneth." He swallows roughly. "Don't ask me to leave, Lee. I want to be here for you." I shake my head as I take a few steps toward him. "Can you please leave?" Hurt flashes in his eyes. He takes a step closer and grabs my chin. "Bailey, I'm begging you. Don't push me away." "I have to." A few more tears slide down
Walking around the huge library Dex had in his home, I admired his collection of books. I ran my fingers over the first-edition Shakespeare books. I held my breath, scared to breathe on them. "You don't have to be afraid to touch them. They're yours." I look over my shoulder at him quickly while giving him a shocked look. "Mine?" He cackles as he strolls up to me. He places his hands on my waist, sliding them down. His hands slip under my summer dress to corress my ass. I gasp as he picks me up. His lips go onto my neck roughly as he wraps one arm around me. I release a soft moan as my eyes flutter closed. "When are you going to accept everything I owe belongs to you now?" Running my hands through his hair, I tug his head up so he is looking into my eyes. Lust burning in his eyes. "I'm still learning to deal with having time to myself. Being rich isn't something I will ever get used to." He chuckles. "You are so fucking beautiful," I tug his head towards mine so I could kiss him.
Dex's P.O.VJogging up to the door with peeling white paint, I peek through the living room window to see the man of the hour. He was in pissed stained boxers and a food stained white tank-top. He looked as if he were molded into the couch. Food containers, empty chip bags, beer cans, and piles of dirty dishes surrounded him. I scrunch up my face in disgust as I look away. I walk over to the door and kick it in. He looks away from the cheap TV to me. His eyes widen as he struggles to stand. I roll my eyes while walking into the living room. "There is no point in trying to run. You and I both know you aren't capable of getting off that damn couch in time," He lets out a heavy sigh before looking away from me. "What do you want, Dex?" "It's not what I want," I say as I look at the small hallway leading to the kitchen where the back door was. Hunter and Luca walk into the living room, and he looks at Hunter. "Hello, Victor," Hunter says bitterly. Victor releases a snarky chuckle. "
PresentGrace's P.O.VI swallow roughly as I watch Ken and Dex have a stare-off as if they were trying to figure out who was going to go first into explaining their tragic past. Dex sits forward while letting out a long-awaited sigh. "You told Falco to kill Uri as an act of war against me and my family." Ken scuffs as he shakes his head. "I would never intentionally go to war with you, Dex. You were like a brother to me. I wouldn't give you any reason to doubt my intentions. But you didn't want to ask me and wait for an answer before you tried to kill me." Dex lets out a dry laugh. "You attacked me and Luca in my apartment. You threw the first punch before I could even ask you." Ken tilts his head a little while anger grows in his eyes. "I threw the first punch? You lied to me about the manhunt and ambused me in my garage. Or did you forget the fact that you were the one who killed Falco?" Dex shakes his head quickly. "I would never do that." Ken's gaze goes to the coffee table lo
18 Years Ago Dex's P.O.V"I'm trusting you to handle this, Dex," Father says sharply, as if he wanted me to fear him if I disobeyed him. I look away from the photo of him that sits on the way behind his desk in his office."I know." His eyes narrow as he takes in the tone of my voice. "If you can't, I will be forced to ask Jax to step in, and something tells me that you don't want that." I swallow roughly while looking at Jax, who smiles as he sits in Father's chair. "No need. I got this," Jax lets out a low chuckle. I look at Father. "Am I free to leave? I do have a life to live outside of your abandoned tin can." "Yes," "Great," I turn on my heels and look at Luca as he awaits by the door. I roll my eyes at the conversation I was forced to have with my sad excuse for a father. "Well, that went great," Luca mumbled as we walked down the hall to the front door. "That went just as I expected it to and no doubt was Jax's doing," He hums. "Someone seriously needs to knock him off
I walk downstairs as Hunter opens the door. Kenneth walks. He thanks him before looking up at me. He takes a deep breath before looking towards the kitchen. Grace walks out of it, looking at him with a smile. I get to the bottom step as she walks up to us. She goes to hug him, but I curl my arm around her waist, pulling her to me. She looks up at me, surprised. I look down at her. "I need you to go upstairs." She gives me a nervous look. "Why?" I tilt my head while glancing at her lips. "Because I said so." She glances at Kenneth before looking back at me. "Are you two fighting again?" I lick my lips while bringing my hand to her cheek. I place my lips on hers, and she melts to me. I pull back, and she looks up at me. "Go on." "Dex," She whispers. "Grace," She folds her arms causing her tits to pop out more. I glance at her cleavage before looking back into her eyes."You said that you wouldn't keep anything from me. Why are you trying to get me to go upstairs?" I sigh. "Fine,
"Baby girl?" I hear. I shift in my seat. I hear a car door open and I open my eyes. I looked out the window to see we were back at the huge mansion. I let out a heavy puff as I rubbed my eyes. My door opens and I look over to see Dex. He smiles. He picks me up. "We are home," I nod. "I see that," I mumble. He chuckles. I lay my head on his chest and he kisses my head. I close my eyes."Hunter, will you get the bags out of the trunk?" "Yes, sir," Dex walks us up the steps and opens the front door. "What are you doing here? I thought you weren't going to be until seven?" I hear Luca whisper. "Grace didn't want to have to wake up early to leave. So we left early so she can sleep in," "Oh," I open my heavy eyes to look at Luca who was standing on the steps. "Hey," He smiles as he sees me. "Hey, sleepy head," I close my eyes once again. "Do you want me to take her upstairs?" "No, I'm heading up to my office," I open my eyes and look at Dex. "We just got home. I'm tired," I say whi
WARNING SEXUAL SCENEShe stands up and walks into the bathroom. She goes to close the door but looks at me. I close my eyes. I hear the toilet flush and her footsteps in the room. I open my eyes to see her looking at me from the bottom of the bed. "Are you going to stand there the whole time?""I figured I would give you a chance to leave if you wanted to," I shake my head."I'm only going to leave if I don't get sleep," She nods and walks back over to me. She goes to cuddle me but I pull her on top of me. She looks up at me with a blush."I thought you weren't going to force me to?" I roll my eyes as I pull her up a little so she couldn't feel me under her. I wrap my arms around her and she lays her head down on me. I hum with satisfaction."Why did you tell Dex?" I ask. She looks up at me. She looks away from me and sighs."I was angry when I hear that you kissed her," She says honestly. I think about her answer before flipping us. She squeals. I hover over her and she looks up at m
Luca's P.O.VI look up from my laptop as I hear Olivia's bedroom door open. She goes to walk down the hall but stops when she sees me. She swallows harshly before walking down the steps. I look back at my laptop to watch the surveillance of the warehouse. "What are you doing up at three in the morning?" She asks as she walks into the living room. I switch rooms to look at. "Working," I mumble. She walks up to one of the chairs and leans on it. "You are always working. Why aren't you trying to sleep?" I sigh loudly and look up at her. "Did you need something from me or did you just want to bother me?" She looks away from me. "I just came down to get a glass of water," She mumbles while turning around. I look back at the computer. I hear her footsteps going toward the kitchen. My phone rings and I pick it up off of the table next to me. Dex's number pops up. "Yeah?" I ask as I answer it. "I took a look at the information you sent me earlier and I think we can agree that when I get
"Remember what I told you?" Father asked me as he turned to me. I look away from the white oak door to him and nod. "Stay quiet and smile?" He gives me a slight grin. "As soon as we walk through that door the deal is done. Dex is free to deal with you as he pleases. I would try to listen as best as you can because his temper is almost as bad as mine." I swallowed harshly as I glanced at Mom who looked at me with a smile and nodded. I look back at Father and nod. "Okay," I breathe. He nods and turns to the door. It opens and I get a heavy wave over my chest. I knew this was it. I was going to get married at the age of 24 to a man I'd never met. Father stepped inside and was greeted by a man who looked a few years older than me. He had black hair and brown eyes. He looked very fit as if he worked out every day. He dressed in designer clothes that a rich man would wear. He spoke with a Mexican accent as he shook father's hand. I glanced at the guy standing next to him who listened to w...
