“I’ll get my daughter, Zara, to go down to the station. She can lead the case. He’ll be out by the morning.”

“Good.”

“He better not fuck this up for me,” he sighs.

“He won’t.”

“Well, I guess this is goodbye.”

I swallow. “Thanks for everything, George. Keep an eye on my family for me.”

“I will.”

I cut the call. As Rosa steps around the corner, her big eyes are full of worry as she approaches and cuddles into me.

“Everything okay? We can stay for longer if you want?”

I shake my head. “It’s done. Your uncle will be a free man by the morning. Nothing is stopping us, tesoro. Never again.”

“Shall we go and say our goodbyes, then?” She looks up at me through her fluffy lashes.

“Is someone excited to join the mile high club?” I wink and she blushes instantly.

“That, amongst other things.” She bites her bottom lip and my dick twitches.

“Well, you now have a lifetime of being worshiped like the absolute queen that you are, Rosa.”

That is what I was put on this earth for, to worship this woman until the day I die.

And what a life that will be, devoting myself entirely to my stolen treasure.

ROSA

Iwatch in the mirror as he leans on the doorframe, his piercing green eyes eating me up. I pop a deep red gloss onto my lips, but I can’t take my eyes off him. His hair is perfectly styled, and his black tux hugs his muscular frame.

He’d make my panties wet if I was wearing any.

He stalks towards me, and I clench my thighs together. His tattooed hand trails along my collarbone, softly moving my curls over one shoulder, exposing my neck to him.

“Mmm,” I mumble as he kisses along the column of my throat. His fingers lace around my neck, and my eyes flutter closed, and I lose myself to the sensation of his soft lips.

“You look spectacular, tesoro.”

My eyes meet his in the mirror, and he grins.

“That hand tattoo finishes off the outfit. My own custom necklace.” I giggle, and he squeezes tighter.

“The only hand that ever goes around your neck is mine. Wife,” he growls.

My stomach flutters,wife.

“Not yet.”

“In about forty-five minutes, you will be. Regardless, every breath, every beat of your heart, every smile is mine, and only mine.”

“It always has been. Forever and always remember.”
