"Stop saying thank you," my dad laughs and again it's one of my favorite things when he does that because he looks so happy.

I laugh along with him.But I stop once I see Alexander walk towards us. He is wearing a damn suit and tie.

God, why does he have to wear those?

Oh my god, Thalia, it's just a suit and tie, it's nothing.

"Alexander."

"Angel," Alexander smirks, making me roll my eyes. He chuckles lightly and looks at my dad. "So why did you call us here, Ace?"

"Well, as you two know, you will move in with each other. Obviously, you don't have to act buddie buddie, but it's what has to happen," my dad shrugs his shoulders. "Also, there is one more thing I need from you two."

I look at my dad and raise my eyebrows at him. "What is it?"

"Well, the mafia ball is coming up, so I just wanted to let you guys know."

"Who is hosting it?'

"Leo."

"Why not you?" I ask.

My dad then had a straight face. "I don't do those kinds of things. "

Thirty Five

Last night was Thalia and my first night in the house.

Ace had this place designed perfectly for us. I always thought Ace was a great interior designer and I even remember my parents joking around one night saying that Ace should be a home designer instead of a mob boss.

I know Ace even designed his own house as an engagement gift for Aria.

It's funny how he is an asshole to everyone, sometimes even his kids, but to Aria?

He will do anything and everything for her.

It's crazy how obsessed he is when it comes to her.

All thoughts about Ace go out the window when I see his daughter walk inside the kitchen with only a white t-shirt on.

No pants.

Fucking tease.

"Is there any coffee?" Thalia asks as she reaches up and opens one of the cupboards.

My eyes go to her ass. She is wearing pink underwear with a lacy fabric.

I don't think twice before walking towards her and grabbing the back of her neck and pulling her up against me.

Her body heat on mine makes me want to drown into her. I want to be absorbed by Thalia so bad I don't even want to think about anything else but her.

"If you're going to act like a slut then you are going to get fucked like one. Don’t test me today,” I say as my lips graze her ear.

Thalia puts her hand on my thigh, and she pushes her ass into my hips. "You hard, Xander?" Thalia whispers, seductively, turning her face towards me so that her lips are only a few centimeters from mine.

"Feeling bold today, Thalia?"
