“Ya, clean dat up,” Kingston says to one of his men. “Tanks.”

“No problem.”

“Big man, I wasn’t sure if ya changed now dat ya somebody. Respect, I still see the man ya come ta muh as. Gud. Now tell muh wuh else yuh need from muh.”

Dante

I wanted to do something special for Bethany. She’s been so patient. I know she wants to get married, but Nonno insists I finish school first.

I’ve been interning for Di Lorenzo Industries, and I came across a file on Gio’s desk. It was a list of properties. This one in Atlantic Beach seemed like the perfect location to take Bethany to for a private romantic date.

“These houses are so nice. They’re right on the water, like they have their own private pieces of the ocean. We should totally get something like this after we’re married.

“We can raise a family in a neighborhood like this. Promise we’ll live somewhere like this, Dante,” Bethany says from the passenger seat.

“We can live wherever you want. I promise.”

I pull up to the address I found. My brows knit. The sun has started to set, and the lights are on in the house. This place should be vacant.

“Hey, stay here.”

“What’s going on?”

“Stay here. I’ll come back for you.”

I get out of the car and move to the house. I pull the key I found in Gio’s office and open the front door. When I step inside, I freeze. One of Gio’s dolls stands behind a chair while whispering to some guy sitting in it.

I’ve seen her with Gio and Jace before. She’s gorgeous. My brother has some serious game, all his girls are hot as fuck.

However, her looks aren’t what has my attention. It’s the gun behind her back. There’s a big dude with an accent talking to Gio across the room.

Gio nods and she places the gun to the back of the guy’s head. The girl pulls the trigger then goes to take a seat as if nothing just happened and begins to turn the pages of the magazine in front of her.

“What are you doing here?” I startle as Jace appears in front of me.

“I…I thought this place was vacant. I was trying to have a date with Bethany.”

“Not here, kid. You saw nothing, you know nothing. Go home,” he says and holds his hand out for the key.

I nod and hand over the key. Turning, I pull a hand down my face. Then a smile comes to my lips. My brother is a fucking genius.

Those dolls may or may not be playthings for him and Jace, but they are definitely his soldiers. That shit is smart as hell. Had I not seen it with my own eyes, I never would have believed it.

“Well, fuck me. Wow.”

I climb back into the car. “What happened? Why aren’t we going inside?”

“We’ll do something else.”

“After that long drive, seriously?”

“Bethany, I said we’re doing something else,” I say with finality.

She slumps in her seat and pouts. I roll my eyes. It was a long drive, but she’ll get over it.

CHAPTER 47

Future Hope

Jace

“What’s that? What are you reading?” I say as I go to sit beside Ny on the couch with a pint of ice cream in my hand.

She plucks the pint from my grasp and steals my spoon. I frown but take the laptop from her lap instead of fussing. My heart skips a beat as I see what she’s researching.

Superfecundation twins. She’s finally looking into it.

Hope blooms. I’ve waited so long to breach this topic. Gio will be the harder sell, but I know Nyla will be for this.

“Do you really think it would work? It says the chances are one in thirteen thousand.”

“That’s because people don’t try to do it on purpose. Think about how often we have sex as a threesome. If we’re both actively trying to get you pregnant, the odds would be better. It would be intentional.”

“Or we could have the eggs implanted. You know, one from you and one from him.”

I know it’s a long shot to do it naturally, but I still get a little disappointed. I’ve always dreamed this would be how I finally get my family.

“Yeah, that’s an option.”

She moves closer and places her head on my arm. I shift to wrap my arm around her and kiss the top of her head.

“Whatever we do, he has to agree to it. That’s going to be harder than my body releasing two eggs at once and both of your sperm surviving the trip to them.”

I laugh. “That might be true.”

She turns her face up and looks at me. “But,” she draws the word out. “I want this. I’m going to at least try to get him to try. One way or the other.”

I don’t know if I should get excited. Even if Gio gets on board, she’s right. The odds are crap.
