“Well, yes.”

That wicked grin stayed on his face.

“And you’re asking me if I behave like my brother.”

I snapped at him…he was pissing me off.

“I won’t have it, Will. It’s a deal-breaker for me.”

There. I had discovered one.

He jerked me against him, filled his hand with my hair, and kissed me hard, thrusting his tongue into my mouth, tasting me, possessing me.

My heart thumped wildly as I fell into his fierce kiss.

When we broke, he pressed his lips to mine a few times…gently sucking…so gently…then he loosened his grip on my hair and rested his forehead against mine. We stayed that way for who knew how long, all wrapped up in each other.

Nothing else existed.

A thought entered my mind, but I lost it before it made sense. Everything outside the space we shared became pointless as he held the back of my head to keep the contact between us strong.

It was an incredible, intimate moment.

He caressed my lips with his thumb and then kissed me softly.

We laced our fingers and rested our hands on his thigh.

“I swear…there’s only you, baby,” he breathed.

CHAPTER 27

A woman with a warm smile and long silver hair put two elegant place settings and food platters on the table in front of us.

“Carry on, loves, and enjoy,” she said.

Ethan came from nowhere and sent her bustling away, destroying the peace Will and I found only minutes before. His inconvenient interruptions were becoming a habit.

“Will, pop in the security office and make sure everything is how you want it. Thom and I will stay with Ellie until you come back.”

Will glared at Ethan as he spoke to me.

“Seems my fucking brother can’t handle shit on his own. I won’t be long, baby. Eat something while it’s warm.”

As Will walked away, Ethan moved two leather club chairs closer to the sofa, then pulled out his phone and focused on that, cursing about the volume of new email messages.

Thomas winked. They all had the same eyes and the same cocky wink.

“They’re both arseholes,” he teased.

I smiled.

“I’m sorry about the shopping thing. I know you’d probably prefer to do something else. I just need to grab some things while we’re here. Did you pick up Kirsty?”

“Yeah, she’ll be down in a minute. She’ll stay here while I take you out.”

“Can you keep up?”

“You’ll tire out long before I do, Ellie.”
