CHAPTER 32

Dante

Juliette slept in my arms wearing nothing but her thong and my white button-down dress shirt that she dug out of my side of the closet.

I ran my hands down her back, loving the feel of her soft skin against my rough palms. Her even breathing filled the space and the cracks in my chest. Her scent lingered everywhere—on our sheets, on my hands, in my lungs.

There was something peaceful about this moment and I feared something would come along and break it. More than likely my betrayal. I should admit to her what I had done. I should admit to her my devious plan with which I entrapped her. But the fucking admission refused to leave my lips.

A hollow ache vibrated through my chest. I couldn’t risk her hatred. Not now. Not ever. We were making progress and that was what mattered. We were moving forward.

A soft sigh brushed against my chest, and I lowered my eyes to my wife. Her breaths fanned my skin. Her cheek was pressed against my chest, her mouth slightly parted and those long, dark lashes casting shadows against her cheeks, becoming a sight I could not get enough of.

My fingers tangled in her soft strands. I marveled at the softness of her dark hair sprawled all over my chest. She was so small and breakable, although sometimes it was easy to forget it. Her personality made up for her lack of height.

My chest tightened at the thought of anyone hurting my wife. My obsession. My blood and my oxygen.

It wasn’t healthy to feel this obsessive about anyone, but then that never stopped the DiLustro men before.

Just look at Basilio’s father. My own father. Basilio and I weren’t any better. God help Priest and any woman he zeroed in on, though it seemed maybe he’d already found one.

My phone buzzed and I reached for it. Surprised to see a message from Illias Konstantin, I slid it open.

*Why is your man lurking in my territory?*

I sighed. Why did the Russian fucker have to know everything. It wasn't that I had any shipments routed through his territory. I had my guy scouting Travis so he could kidnap him and bring him to me.

I typed a quick reply. *He’s picking up a guy.*

*At the ex-senator’s house?* I could practically hear Konstantin’s snicker through the text. Fucking old man. He should really consider retiring or something.

*His kid hurt my wife. He needs to pay.*

If he had the senator or his family under his protection, I’d just have to fight him, because letting Travis Xander get away with what he had done to Juliette, wasn’t an option.

My phone buzzed again and an unexpected message came through.

*Let me know if you need help.*
