A buzz from my main cellphone catches my consideration and I keep in mind my dialog with my mom. I apologize and inform my mother we’ll must postpone our lunch date due to a piece obligation.

The very last thing she tells me is to watch out. I don’t give it a lot consideration because it’s one thing she all the time tells me. Don’t all mothers inform their youngsters to watch out? Irrespective of their age.

That thought brings me again to final weekend with Dae and the way nice he was with these kids. Upon first assembly him, nobody would suspect he’s a pure with youngsters. But, all of them love him, and it’s evident that he cares for every of them.

He’ll make a beautiful father.

I blink and sit up as that thought floats by way of my thoughts. I start to shake my head adamantly. It’s means too quickly to consider anybody being a father. And I’m positive as hell not able to be anybody’s mom.

“Get a grip, Kennedy,” I murmur to myself earlier than rising to my ft. I’ve a gathering with James in 5 minutes to replace him on this case. I don’t have time to give attention to or take into consideration love, infants, or relationships.

CHAPTER 27

Dae

I frown at my cellphone as I stare at a message from Kennedy.

Little Warrior: It’s okay. We don’t have to fulfill tonight.

That’s her response since I instructed her I wouldn’t be house till late as a result of I’ve to work on the membership tonight. Since that first weekend she spent at my house, she sleeps over two to 3 occasions per week. I’ve tried to get her to remain extra however she insists on staying at her place when she will get off of labor.

That thought makes me frown tougher. There’s no means in hell I’m not waking as much as her in my mattress tomorrow morning. I don’t sleep until she’s subsequent to me. Earlier than, I by no means missed it. I most popular working nights as a result of I didn’t want sleep and felt extra energetic at evening anyway.

Now, there’s just one place I’d reasonably be most nights.

Me: Be at house once I get there.

I hear voices on the opposite aspect of the door of the personal room I’m in. I wasn’t mendacity once I stated work would hold me occupied tonight. I’ve an essential assembly. But, at this second, what captures my consideration are the three little dots that hold showing and disappearing in my message field.

Little Warrior: I’m going house. My house. You received’t even be there. Your house is like Fort Knox. How will I get in with out your fingerprint?

Me: My house is your private home. You already know the code, and I added your fingerprint to the system weeks in the past.

Once more these fucking dots bounce up and down like she’s typing after which erasing it. I can really feel her waffling on the opposite aspect of the cellphone, and it’s starting to drive me loopy. Each urge in me needs me to search out her, toss her over my shoulder, and drag her to my mattress.

Fuck.

The considered it makes my cock leap in my pants.

On the similar time, the door opens, and I hear a voice that garners a unique response from me. My gaze strikes to the person on the door.

“Dae!” Sebastian Blackmon yells as he enters with arms outstretched.

I don’t rise from my seat within the leather-based chair on the far aspect of the room. As a substitute, I ship a fast textual content to Kennedy, telling her to have her ass at my place tonight until she needs me to come back searching for her.

Then I stuff my cellphone in my pocket and gesture for Sebastian to sit down.

“We’ve got so much to debate, huh?” he asks cheerily.

“We do.”

I give him a once-over. From the second I met him, I had a foul feeling about him. Again then, I trusted my uncle’s intestine over my very own, however that’s not the case.

“Now that we’re each a part of the International Group, I believe it’s a superb concept to have these one-on-one conferences like this.” He seems across the room, which causes him to overlook my scowl.

“That received’t be occurring.”

That phony smile drops barely earlier than he replasters it on his face. He glances over on the wine bottle with glasses sitting on the desk.
