Chapter Twenty-Seven

Grey

“Hmm…not bad,” I hum as I run my fingertips along my freshly trimmed beard. Trimmed being the operative word. I didn’t let her shave the entire thing ‘cause I for one like it. Plus, she called me rugged-looking and sexy as hell because of it. There was no way I’d shave away one of the ways to take my girl to bed. Not that I need it. All I really need is my natural sexy-ass aura and a smirk.

“Stop smirking at me like that,” she demands, but I just wink at her. I laugh as she rolls her eyes under my lingering gaze and walks up to me in front of the mirror. “And I used to help shave my dad’s face when I was younger. I used to be such a daddy’s girl.” She sighs, eyes glazed over in solemn nostalgia.

“You’re still a daddy’s girl. Don’t worry.” I wink at her, and I watch in fascination as blush runs from her neck to her cheeks.

She looks at me in amusement. “You are not my daddy.”

“Sure, whatever helps you sleep at night.” I shrug and cough out a laugh when she pushes at my arm. I push her back, and she sighs in defeat but lays her head against my arm. I smile at how content she looks, joking around with me. It feels like forever since we’ve played around and laughed. This is all I want. Her, her cute snort laughter thing she does, her tiny little baby dimple, and feeling like everything will be okay.

I turn to her and nudge her slightly with my shoulder, pulling her out of her thoughts. “Your father must have been either really stupid or too trustworthy to let a little girl near his face with a sharp razor.”

She smiles at me through the mirror as I wrap my arms around her naked body. “They were never sharp enough to kill him, but he trusted me, anyway. And he was right to. He also said that he was teaching me for…” She trails off.

“For what?” Why’d she just stop?

She sighs heavily and mumbles, “He was teaching me for when I had a husband. Then I could help him.”

“Oh…” I rub the back of my neck, and she nods.

Oh, crap. The marriage bullshit is resurrecting from the dead. What will it take for the bitch to stay down?

“Yeah. Guess I’ll just help you instead.” She’s beaming up at me, but her blue eyes are clouding over. And it’s my fucking fault. Why can’t she just not want to get married? I mean, what’s the point? It’s just a signed paper, and a wedding’s just an overrated party. We can stay like this—Liv and Grey, Grey and Liv. We do not—she does not need a ring to be happy.

I sigh and feel a low sting at her words. She looks away like it hurts her just to look at me, then begins to shuffle out of the room. “Wait.” I wish I could just erase her desire of marriage and children.
