  “I just told MadDog about the arrangements,” she murmurs as I walk into her room. She’s ditched her shoes, but she’s still in her sexy as shit long dress.

  “Nice of you. Thanks, baby,” I murmur.

  “I feel like I haven’t slept in a year,” she admits as she sits down on her bed.

  “Stress,” I point out. I walk over to her, sinking down to my knees in front of her, my hands sliding up the outside of her thighs.

  “Sloane,” she whispers.

  “I want to be a better man for you. I have to stay sober to stay out of jail. I don’t like the man I am and what I’m capable of when I’m blazed. I don’t want to lose you again. I know that I can’t live without you. I know that I’ll kill any man that even thinks about taking you from me. I know that I’ll die to keep you safe,” I admit, feeling like a pussy, but telling the truth for the first time, ever.

  “Oh, Sloane,” she sighs as she cups my cheeks.

  “Come back with me. After the funeral, come home, sunshine,” I rasp.

  I watch as her eyes search mine, and then she nods slowly as she bites her bottom lip.

  “This is all really how you feel, for certain?” she asks. I turn my head to press my lips to the inside of her wrist.

  “Yeah. Bring my sunshine home to me.”

  “Okay,” she says as tears fall from her eyes.

  My gut reaction is to drop my pants and fuck her until she screams, but the vulnerable look in her eyes tells me that I need to move slowly—for her. So that’s exactly what I’ll do.

  I untie the little bow at her waist and gently tug her dress open before I pull it down her arms. Wrapping my hand loosely around the front of her throat I slide it down the center of her chest to her belly, stopping just below her belly button.

  “I’m ready to put my baby inside of you, Genny,” I murmur as I feel her stomach tremble beneath my fingers.

  “Sloane,” she exhales.

  I move my hands to her panties and tug them down. She lifts up, and I pull them down her legs before I press my hand to the insides of her thighs and spread her wide. I moan when her fingers comb through my hair and she forces my head back.

  “When you’re like this, I can imagine a beautiful life with you,” she whispers. I wait for her to continue, knowing that she has more to say to me. “I want the beautiful life, Sloane.”

  I slide my fingers through her center, finding her wet and biting my bottom lip as I push two inside of her. Curling my fingers, my eyes connect to hers while her grip flexes in my hair. Her face is flush, her hair hangs around her face, and this is the moment it washes over me—love.

  “I’m giving you the beautiful life you deserve, sunshine. No more women, no more drugs. You and me, our little house up in Shasta, and babies. A simple life,” I rasp.

  “It’s all I’ve ever wanted,” she breathes as her thighs shake.

  “I know, sunshine.”

  I continue to fuck her with my fingers, my eyes trained on hers and watching as she climbs closer toward her release, her body moving on its own volition as she chases what I know is bubbling toward the top. Her pussy flutters around my fingers, causing me to groan, wishing my cock were deep inside of her instead.

  “I love you, Sloane,” she whispers as she throws back her head and comes, her pussy squeezing my fingers tightly.

  I let her ride out her climax before I take my own clothes off, quickly. Leaving them in a pile on her floor, I instruct her to climb up the bed. She does as I’ve asked before she removes her bra, releasing her gorgeous tits for me.

  Grasping her ankles, I let my hands slide up her calves, behind her knees and then to the backs of her thighs. I place her legs over my shoulders. She bites her bottom lip and grins, the heat in her eyes obvious as the head of my cock presses against her slick entrance.

  “Ready for me, Imogen?” I ask, my eyes snapping up to hers.

  “Sloane,” she moans.

  “Gonna fuck you, sunshine. You ready to take all of me?”

  I watch as she nods. I’ve been rough with her, but nothing like I’m about to be. I’ve always held myself back a bit, thinking she can’t take all that I need to give. She’s got no choice now but to take it. There’s not going to be anybody else, just her. Without another warning, I slam into her, as hard as I can in one thrust.

  “Oh, shit,” she gasps.

  I place one of my hands on her headboard for support, my other on her shoulder to keep her in place, and I thrust into her tight cunt, hard and fast. It’s rougher than I’ve ever fucked her before, but I can’t hold back. She’s mine again, and she’s coming home. It feels new, raw, and fucking right—so goddamn right.

  “Relax,” I urge as sweat forms on my forehead.

  My hips moving and my cock filling her over and over as she makes the sweetest fucking sounds on earth beneath me. She’s wound tight, and I can tell by the look on her face that she’s tensing with each thrust. I’m not slowing down, and I can’t stop, so her only alternative is to fucking relax.

  “Sloane, honey,” she gasps as my hips grind against her clit. I lean my head down and press my lips against hers.

  “Relax, sunshine. Feel, don’t think,” I whisper against her lips. I can feel the tension leave her body.

  Returning back to my punishing thrusts, I know when she’s finally feeling instead of thinking. Her back bows as her thighs relax further against her chest, allowing me more room. I take full advantage.

  The tight glove of her pussy strangles me, and I know that she’s close again. I don’t slow down. I speed up my movements and slam against her. Genny’s breath hitches until she gasps, and that’s when she strangles my dick tighter than she ever has, crying out with her release.

  “Christ,” I curse.

  My balls tighten and empty inside of her, my body giving no other warning that I was close. I fucking explode inside of my wife. Her pussy pulses as I slowly move in and out of her, allowing her to milk me dry before I collapse on top of her, her thighs wrapping around my waist and her body trembling beneath mine.

  “Fucking hell, sunshine,” I whisper against her neck as her arms wrap around my back.

  “I’ve missed you. Missed us,” she murmurs. I grunt.

  “This is our new beginning, baby.”

  “Sounds nice,” she sighs. I nip the side of her neck with my teeth.

  “Sleep.”

  The black dress I’m wearing is tight and hits to right above my knees, the neckline cut so high that not even a hint of cleavage is showing; the sleeves are three-quarter because that is what is appropriate. My high heels are black, four-inch, Jimmy Choos.

  I finish pinning my hair into a low chignon, away from my face as is proper. My makeup is light; my lips, a dark berry color.

  “You look gorgeous, sunshine,” Sloane murmurs as he slides his hand around my waist from behind, his lips touching the back of my neck.

  “I shouldn’t be excited about today,” I whisper, turning around and sliding my hands up his chest to wrap around the back of his neck.

  “But?”

  “I’m moving back home, and you’re coming with me to stay,” I say, licking my bottom lip.

  “Yeah, I’m stayin’ there, baby,” he murmurs before his mouth touches the corner of mine, careful not to mess up my lips.

  “It’s all real?” I ask, not for the first time.

  Sloane’s hands slide down to my ass and give me a hard squeeze. His stiff cock presses against my belly. “All real, sunshine,” he grins.

  I smile as he shakes his head, and then the doorbell rings. We’ve spent the last few days helping Kalli with the funeral, along with Mary-Anne, Cleo, Colleen, Bobbie, Ivy and Teeny.

  I didn’t think that Kalli would want their help, but when nobody from her circle of friends even offered to lift a finger, she welcomed them with ease and grace. She’s still sad, but deep down I think that she’s relieved. Sloane’s father had this hold over her. Now that he’s gone, it’s as though sh
e’s bursting through her shell. It’s a beautiful thing to watch.

  I wish that I could say the same for Kipling, but I can’t. He seems to be retreating into himself more and more. Sloane has been talking with him, but I don’t think it’s helping. He had an image of his father built up in his mind, and it’s been shattered. Sloane can’t really help him too much with that aspect, as his image of his father being a good person was shattered when he was just a child.

  Sloane walks downstairs to answer the door as I gather my purse from the bed. I look around my bedroom and shake my head with a grin. I’m completely insane, and absolutely crazy.

  I don’t know why I’m doing this, but I am. I’m leaping into something that will probably crash and burn. There’s something that feels so different this time. Hope—hope is the something that’s different, and I’m going to grasp onto it with both hands.

  All of my clothes are neatly packed and ready for the movers to load up and drive to Shasta. I don’t know when I’ll have the opportunity to wear my designer clothes much, but I don’t really care. I’m more comfortable in jeans and t-shirts, anyway. I always have been.

  “Movers are here, Genny,” Sloane calls out. I hurry downstairs.

  There are a few men standing around, big and broad, looking at my home in surprise. I don’t have much packed, because I honestly didn’t accumulate much in the past three years.

  “The furniture all stays. The only things going are the boxes, and they’re all ready to load up,” I instruct. Their eyes widen even further in surprise.

  Once they get the rest of their instructions from Sloane on when and where to drive the truck after they’re finished, I notice the limousine pulling up, and then a couple of bikes behind it.

  “Mammoth and Roach are going to stay here with the movers until they’re finished,” Sloane informs me.

  I grab the small bag that’s packed by the front door. It’s a change of clothes for the ride home. Sloane hasn’t left me for one second since his father died and we decided to get completely and totally back together. That also means that I’ll be following behind his bike in my car, since he hasn’t been back to Shasta to drop it off.

  “Ready?” he asks. I nod jerkily. “You okay?” His brow furrows as he looks at me with concern, and I wonder if I’m doing the right thing.

  I know I’m not doing the safest thing. My heart is definitely on the line, again. I turn around and look at my house, my home for the past three years, and yet, it’s not a home at all. There aren’t any special personal touches, and no good or bad memories were made here. This was a place I slept, but I never lived here.

  “Yeah, I am,” I admit with a nod.

  He takes my bag and walks over to my garage, punching in the buttons that automatically raise it. He then clicks my trunk open button and tosses my bag inside before he closes everything back up. Together, we walk toward the limo.

  After he opens the door for me, I slide inside and am met with not only Kalli and Kipling but my parents as well. I blink in surprise, and my mother rolls her eyes at me before my father speaks.

  “We’re a family. We show as a united front no matter the circumstance,” my father says. “Since it appears as though you aren’t going through with a divorce from him, we’re to remain family.”

  “No, you’re right. I won’t be going through with the divorce,” I admit.

  “I don’t understand it,” my mother says, shaking her head.

  “You don’t have to,” Sloane replies, finally speaking.

  He’s always detested my parents but hasn’t ever spoken against them. Both of our parents have their own sets of issues, and we’ve just always kind of ignored them. Fighting with them isn’t ever worth it. We each listen to them and then do what we want. We’re in our thirties, and they don’t have control over us anymore.

  “What does that mean?” my father asks, puffing out his chest.

  “Means that you don’t have to understand us. You aren’t part of our marriage,” Sloane shrugs.

  I watch as my father’s face visibly reddens at his words. “Listen here, you little prick, you aren’t allowed to talk to me that way,” my father growls. Sloane just snorts.

  “I’m almost forty, old man, not a little prick anymore,” he jeers. “Also, your big bad voice didn’t scare me away from Imogen when I was eighteen years old, and it still doesn’t. Genny’s mine—my wife. I don’t care what kind of plans you had with Graham Bayard, but they’re done. She won’t marry him, not even if I’m out of the picture,” he rumbles.

  “Sloane,” I whisper, tugging on his arm.

  “No, baby. Your dad and Graham had some master plan, and they’re both pissed now because I’m back and they can’t try to manipulate you. I won’t let that happen,” he announces.

  “I still have a little control, Huntington, don’t forget that,” my father chortles.

  “What? You have control over a portion of her money but not all of it. I know how much is in her trust, and I’ll know if one penny goes missing, too. That trust is untouchable, and it’s going to stay that way so that our children can have it. You can keep whatever money you want, I could give a fuck; we don’t need it,” Sloane announces.

  “You’ll be singing a different tune if it’s taken,” my father says, sounding high and mighty.

  “Not singing any tunes for you, asshole. Wanna know what? My father’s money is all but gone, and I didn’t get what I should have. Do you know how much of a fuck I give? Not a single one. Its money. It isn’t life or death if you don’t have it, and guess what? I can always make more, and I make plenty.”

  “Bullshit,” my father snaps.

  “Which part?” I ask, interrupting them. “There’s a reason you’re pushing for Graham even though you know he hit me.”

  My father doesn’t visibly show a reaction. He wouldn’t. I’m convinced he has no soul. We pull up to the funeral home before my father can answer, and I fight rolling my eyes as the door opens and my father plasters on a concerned, yet calm face. It’s his serious funeral face. My family’s entire social circle is so damn vapid, it’s disgusting.

  “You gonna be okay, Kippy?” I ask as I squeeze his hand.

  “Yeah,” he lies.

  “Well, that was hell,” Kipling murmurs.

  We’re sitting in the front row outside in the cemetery after everybody has left the graveside service, other than immediate family.

  Luckily, my parents are heading to the reception early to play host and hostess. Since they love that shit, nobody protested. Now it’s just Kip, Kalli, Sloane and me staring at the casket in front of us.

  “No, what he left for us, the way he did it, that’s going to be hell,” Kalli slurs.

  “Whatever you need, we’re here for you,” I say, squeezing Kip’s arm.

  “I’m supposed to leave for Harvard in two-weeks. My first semester is paid, but nothing else,” Kipling says, his voice shaky.

  “Don’t worry about money. I’ll take care of you,” Sloane says. I turn to him in surprise. “I don’t spend even a fraction of what I get each month, Kippy. I have some of my own holdings as well. You need to go to school,” Sloane murmurs. My heart fills with even more love for him.

  I let my head gently fall onto his shoulder, and I wrap my hand around his upper thigh. He grunts before he stands and tugs me up as well.

  “You want to come home with us for a while?” Sloane asks Kip.

  “No, I’m going to help mom with packing and getting her settled in her own place,” he says as he stands.

  We walk away from Kalli, Kip behind us. When we’re far enough away, Sloane speaks more freely.

  “Mom’s an adult. You don’t need to take care of her. She’s capable of calling people to hire that can help her. If you need to get to college earlier, or you want to crash with us before you go, nobody will be angry with you. Nobody expects you to take care of her,” Sloane says.

  I slide my hand around his waist, feeling nothing but pri
de in the way he’s handling all of this. He so obviously wants to take care of Kip. Sloane’s so sexy when he’s in control; but when he’s showing love, it’s the sexiest thing I’ve ever seen. He doesn’t show if often.

  “Thanks. I’ll help her, though. I’ll feel better knowing she’s all settled when I leave,” he shrugs.

  “Don’t do it all on your own. Call me if you need me,” Sloane murmurs.

  “Me too,” I chime in. Kipling looks down on me and smiles.

  I step away from Sloane and wrap Kip in my arms. He does the same and hugs me tightly.

  “Glad you’re back with my asshole brother,” he whispers into my neck.

  “I am, too… I think,” I admit.

  Sloane and I leave a few minutes later, and we tell Kip that we’ll send the limo back to pick them up once it drops us off at my place. He nods his agreement and turns back to sit with his mother.

  It’s sad, the destruction that one stack of papers, a simple will, left behind. Sloane McKinley Huntington, II is a piece of shit—even in death.

  “I have to work tonight, sunshine,” I announce. Genny stiffens next to me. “Not at the clubhouse.”

  We’re headed back to her place to pick up her car and my bike before we get the fuck out of this city. Everyone who came to support us from the club is waiting in front of her place, and the moving van has already left.

  “Okay,” she says and turns to look out the window.

  “Sunshine,” I bark a little too harshly, causing her to jump. “Talk.”

  “I’m just… I don’t want to be in that house all alone again,” she admits, refusing to look at me.

  I ask her to look at me, and when she does, I see tears swimming in her eyes. Makes me feel like shit, but I have to do my job. It’s true that I don’t need the money from the club, but that’s not why I have to do my job.
