All Chapters of The Princes of Ravenwood: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

I had grumbled the entire time we were at dad’s office. He had some big case coming up and had Darius and me sorting through depositions. It was tedious as fuck. All I wanted was to be at home with Riko.  Fuck I love saying that. Home with Riko. It is about the most right sentence ever. I wanted to be the one to stay home and help her unpack. I wanted to be there, helping her settle in. And I know I’m not the only one. Darius doesn’t want to be at work either.  It seemed like forever when dad finally told us we could pack up for the day. “I swear if I have to look at one more piece of paper on this stupid case, I’m going to scream.” I grumbled as I followed Darius to our SUV. Dad had already headed to this car so that he couldn’t hear me grumbling. “And just think dad wants this to be our lives.” Darius

It’s been a month since Riko moved into the house and started working at mom’s construction company. I had zero doubt that she’d manage to excel in the office environment. None of us did because our girl is amazing like that. None of us expected to see the spark in her eyes during a meeting with Jackson from HKS Architects discussing design plans for a new hotel.It appears our girl has a knack for design. Mom and Jackson were impressed with some of Riko's suggestions for the design, even if she was timid in making them. But I can't fault her for that. She hadn’t been working at the company long and to speak up during a meeting with her boss and the lead designer? Anyone would be intimidated. But she did, and her suggestions got added to the design.On the days that I get to work at the office with her after school, I don’t even ge

Surprising Riko with a visit from her grandparents was the perfect start of the day. We let her relax and enjoy quality time with her grandparents while we set things for our date. Elijah had already packed a picnic basket of items that were in thermal carriers to keep warm. A container of mini meat pies is kept warm, and a container of the mini s'more's cheesecakes is kept cold. And then three thermoses, one with butternut squash soup, another with hot apple cider, and the last with hot chocolate. It didn’t need to be super fancy for our girl to love it. As the sun began to set, we packed the basket and some warm blankets into the car before going into the living room. “So we are going to kidnap our girlfriend now.” I announced, scooping her up from the sofa where she’d been sitting with Yūri. “Darius!” she exclaimed, trying to keep her dress in place. 

I was glad that only one of the boys came with me to the check-in counter. I’m pretty sure I would die of embarrassment if the concierge saw the three of them and I checked in for one bedroom. Sure they’d not be wrong to think we were here to have sex, but I don’t want to be judged. Once I had checked in, Darius and I met with his brothers and headed up to the seventh floor to our suite. Forrest let out a whistle as we walked in. “This is fancy.” he nodded.  We wandered from the entry area through an archway to find a lush-looking living area with a fireplace and a mini grand piano. Glancing to the left, I saw a formal dining area. “This way.” Darius smiled, taking my hand as he followed his brothers back through the entry to a set of frosted glass double doors. Elijah pushed them open, leading the way into the massive bedroom. “This place is so beautiful.” I whispered. 

A Frost is never nervous. Or that’s what we like to say and have people believe. But right now, my brothers and I are nervous as hell. The last three years have been amazing. All three of us attending Boston University with Riko was like a dream come true. Getting to live together, this is the life we want. We all agreed that a life without Riko wouldn’t be a life worth having. We’ve been renting a spacious four-bedroom duplex not far from campus for the last three years. And we love it. It’s been weird having our own bedrooms. We keep our own bedrooms for times when Riko wants to be alone, or we might be out late for work or something and don’t want to disturb each other. But most nights, we end up in Riko’s room. Of course, we got a lot of attention when we moved in. People are nosey little shits. And seeing one woman and three men moving into a unit t
