“Add Phoenix to the approved list,” I tell Kostas after the waiter sets down our plates of food.

Kostas’s jaw clenches. “You’re going to want to rethink how you speak to your husband, anóito korítsi.” Foolish girl. “Otherwise, I’m going to be forced to remind you again who you belong to, but you aren’t going to be screaming my name in pleasure this time.”

Not wanting to argue with him, I take a calming breath and try again, this time nicer. “Can you please add my brother to the list of approved people who can speak to me?”

Kostas glares my way but nods. “It’s already been done.”

“Thank you.”

“How was your first day of school?”

“It was good. The first performance in my theatre class is Macbeth. Guess which part I’m trying out for.” I bat my lashes playfully, and Kostas chuckles.

“Let me guess, Lady Macbeth,” he answers dryly.

“Yep. I think I’ll make a great Lady Macbeth. She’s strong and ambitious. Determined.”

Kostas barks out a laugh. “She’s cunning and ruthless and manipulative. She repeatedly questions her husband’s manhood until she pushes him to the edge, forcing him to commit murder. Then she can’t handle it and takes her own life.” Kostas puts his fork down and stares at me with a mixture of humor and seriousness. “You know what would’ve saved her life? If she had let her husband handle shit.”

I roll my eyes. “You’re such a caveman.”

“Doesn’t Lady Macbeth have to kiss Macbeth in that play?” Kostas asks thoughtfully.

“I don’t know.” I shrug. “If she does, it’s only for pretend. It’s a stage kiss. It’s not real.”

Kostas lets out a growl. “I’ll be damned if my wife is kissing another man, staged or not.”

“Caveman,” I repeat.

“Careful, Lady Macbeth. You will hate the outcome if you drive your husband to the edge and he’s forced to commit murder.” Kostas’s lips curve into a wicked grin as fear shoots through my veins like some deadly hit of a drug I want no part of.

Any other man and I would take his threat as a joke, but with Kostas, I have a feeling he’s being dead serious.
