Page 41 of His Cursed Heart

"Are you running from Venus again?" I ask him with a little smile.

"She's still angry for the bullet wound." He replies in Italian. His suit is absolutely adorable and the little leather shoes are making him a true gentleman.

"You're so cute, let me eat those cheeks." I say in Russian.

"I'm too old for that, Thea." He replies back offended, but his smile is there.

The proud sister in me is running happy in her head.

I raised Vincent to be the man Hanibal will never be. Teaching him more languages is an advantage in the future.

I can't take Vincent with me in America, but I will do anything in my power to move him there.

I'm not letting him alone with Hanibal.

"I don't like your husband." Vincent switches in English.

"I don't like him either." I wink at him.

I take my eyes off Vincent and look around, finding Keaton next to Papa, Makhim, the Bratva Pakhan, and the Empress.

Like he could feel my eyes on him, Keaton moves his head and meets my gaze.

He excuses and comes besides me, wrapping his arm around my middle.

I hiss and look into his green eyes.

"Don't tell me you missed me, husband." I put accent on the last word.

"I didn't miss you, but I could get another taste from these beauties." He touches my lips with his fingers.

Before I can say something, I feel Vincent move quickly and see his little fists smacking Keaton's legs.

"Don't touch my sister like that!" I quickly take Vincent off before he starts upsetting Hanibal for causing a scene.

"Your sister is my wife, ant." I look confused at him. When did they meet?

"Being my sister is more important."

"Are you sure about that?" This time, I smack Keaton's arm.

"Are you seriously fighting with a four-year old?" I ask furiously.

"He started it."

"Keaton," I warn, making him put his eyes on my lips.

"Mhm, I don't stand you, but you saying my name like that makes me do bad things to you." My eyes widen at his words.

"Stop it."

"Tell me you don't like it and I will."

"I don't like it."

"Your lies creates butterflies in my stomach." I open my mouth in shock and he takes the opportunity and glue his lips to mine.

He kisses me hard and I grab his cheeks with one hand and pull him away from me.
