“I’m sorry you had to go through that again, because of me. It’s still no reason to stay down here, though.”

She pushed the straps from her shoulders and exposed her breasts to the chill air. Her nipples immediately hardened.

He couldn’t look away and she knew she had him.

“You have no idea what you’re in for.”

“I trust you.”

He tugged her nipple piercing. “Be careful what you ask for, beautiful. The state I’m in right now, I want tofucking pound you into the mattress. I want to gag you with my cock until tears are streaming down your face.”

“I trust you.”

“This isn’t going to be gentle. It’s going to be a long, rough, and hard fuck. I’ll use your body any way I want.”

She placed a kiss on his knuckle. “I trust you.”

CHAPTER 27

HECTOR

Hector passed the newly-formed ‘family wall of fame’ in the corridor as he made his way into the living room. It held their wedding picture, one of them with Zoe at the zoo, various ones with the Dettas, and Mary with her cousins.

He’d waited until Mary had left to take Zoe to school, so he would be alone with Gina.

It was the second day after his cage fight and time for his long overdue talk with his sister-in-law. She’d been hiding, huddled up in their guest room. This morning, Mary had mentioned Gina would be leaving today, destination unknown. Hector didn’t give a fuck what rock she would crawl back under. He was, however, first gonna set her straight.

It didn’t take long for Gina to show her face and find her way to the coffee machine.

“Glad you’re up.”

She jumped up when she heard him. “Oh, Hector. Um, you’re still here.”

“Yeah, ain’t that a bitch?” He walked over to the kitchen island, taking a position across the table from her.

“I beg your pardon?”

“Cut the crap. We both know that you’ve been avoiding me. Only reason you got off your butt this morning is because you thought you had the house for yourself. Now Mary, bless her heart, believes your ‘I’m traumatized’ bullshit. I don’t. Not only because I know it’s bullshit, but mostly because I couldn’t care less about your whiny, selfish ass.”

Her knuckles holding the cup turned white. “If you’re trying to tell me you want me to leave, then rest assured—”

“I nevertryanything, I justdo. See, the first time you slithered into our home, it was to warn Mary off me. Feeding her bullshit about her divorcing my ass and taking me for all I have.” That memory still pissed him off. Had she been a man trying to get between him and his wife, he would have knocked out his teeth.

Gina paled. “I—”

“I’m not finished. Don’t fucking interrupt me again. I let that insult slide, thinking that perhaps you were just looking out for your sister. After all, you didn’t know me; neither did Mary much at the time.” How things had changed. He couldn’t remember his life before Mary, nor did he want to. “But this time, you really fucked up. You put Mary in danger and that’s where I come in.”

Her eyes darted at his scars, looking afraid. The two sisters couldn’t be more different. Mary didn’t focus on what others deemed as imperfection. Gina was all about looks.

“If you ever put Mary in danger again, I will dig a nice hole in the desert for you. No one will ever find your body.”

Her eyes widened. “You wouldn’t.”

“Have you not listened to a word that I’ve just said? I’ll do it, and won’t lose any sleep over it. See, I’ve got a woman and kid to think about. I’m the fucking wall between them and nasty bitches like you. Get your act together, or I will fucking make you.”

He was about to really reel into her when suddenly, he noticed a movement in the window behind her. For a second there, he saw a ghost from his past.

Decker.
