“That’s the thing. I don’t want anyone to fight or die for me. It’s so stupid. I feel like I’m not doing shit here while you guys take on everything. That’s not fair. I’m not earning my place. I’m just the pregnant girlfriend. It all seems so ridiculous to me. I want to fight, as well.”

“Let me make this clear, Bianca,” he said firmly, bringing my hand to his lips and kissing the top of it. “You will never get involved in this. We are the ones who will protect you, not the other way around. You are our responsibility. You and our babies.”

“You’re my responsibility too,” I answered back.

“We aren’t. You need to understand how much we love you and don’t want to lose you. We can’t go through that shit again. It would kill us all.” Tears glinted in his eyes, and he drew in a shuddering breath.

“And you need to understand that I need to do this. I can’t just sit back—”

He crushed his lips against mine, silencing me.

“You can and you will. That’s final,” he growled against my lips before biting my bottom one and making me whimper.

He kissed me again, this time not breaking away. I accepted him, knowing he wasn’t going to let me win this, but I’d figure out a way somehow to make myself more useful to them.

Moments later, he had me on my back on the patio, and we were stripped naked. He pushed into me amid a soft groan, our lips fused to one another’s.

“Have I told you how fucking sexy this baby bump is on you?”

“No. Tell me,” I said between frantic kisses.

“It makes me want to put my baby inside you next.”

His words surprised me. I dragged my fingers through his blond hair and pressed my lips harder against his. He thrust into me rougher, his hips rolling against mine, making me moan into his mouth.

“I don’t want you to go,” I rasped.

“I’m coming back.” He kissed me again. “Nothing in this world could stop me, Bianca. Fucking nothing. You belong to me. You always will. Mine, baby.”

I came with a cry, jutting my hips up to experience more of him.

He let out a groan, following me into bliss, both of us panting hard.

Gently, he pressed his lips back to mine as we came down from our high.

“When I get back, and you have these babies, I’m going to put mine into you. Do you hear me, bumblebee?”

I stared into his eyes, noting how serious he was.

“OK,” I answered softly.

“I now understand why Dom was so ravenous. Damn him for his influence.”

I smiled up at him. He kissed me once more before shifting off me and lying naked beside me on the blanket. He rolled onto his side and rested his hand on my belly. The babies kicked, making him smile.

“I can’t wait to meet them,” he murmured. “I bet baby Sante will be just like Dom, but he’ll be pretty like you.”

“And Fallon’s baby?”

Levin let out a soft chuckle. “I hope he gets everything about who he is from you. Fallon is an ugly fuck.”

I slapped at him. “You know that’s not true.”

“I know,” he admitted with a sigh. “He’s too fucking pretty for his own good. It just makes me hate him more.”

“You don’t hate Fallon.” I brushed my lips against his. “Do you?”

He tangled his fingers in my hair. “I don’t. Not really. Just don’t tell him, OK? If he knew how quickly he can grow on someone, it would ruin my reputation.”
