Renato doesn’t wait for me to respond. He stands with me in his arms, leaving the dining room and everyone else behind. His men quickly step out of his way when they see him coming, directing their eyes away from me. I’m not sure how to take that. My hope is that they do it out of respect for Renato and not because they dislike me.

“Why do your men always look away from me?” I ask as he takes the stairs two at a time.

He carries me like I weigh nothing. I suppose to someone his size I’m as light as air. I tend to be on the curvy side, so it’s nice to feel dainty for once.

“They want to keep their eyes.”

I giggle at his response, but he doesn’t crack a smile. Oscar’s words about Renato being possessive ring in my ears.

He has no need to be that way. I’d never be the kind of girl that strayed. Heck, I’ve never even been with someone before, but I still enjoy his possessiveness. Growing up in the foster system, I never felt wanted. That’s far from the case when it comes to my new husband. He can’t keep his hands off me. Even when we’d sat down at the table earlier to eat, he pulled me into his lap.

“Eye poking? Really?” A few times I saw a darkness flash in his gaze. Would he really remove someone's eyes for looking at me? As barbaric as that sounds, I think he might.

“They aren’t going to look at you when I’m carrying you off to our bedroom where everyone knows what is about to happen.”

“Right.” Heat rushes to my cheeks. His words remind me that everyone does know what we’re about to do. How is this my life? Hours ago, I was on my way to cat sit, now I’m married and my husband is about to take my virginity. “Do you think Clara is going to be okay?” I can’t help but ask. “Her husband was a jerk face.” I could tell she was afraid of Oscar. He’s a big bully.

I dealt with a lot of them growing up. Once I was out, I promised myself that I would never allow people to be that way in front of me. I probably should have kept my mouth shut, but I couldn’t help myself.

“Jerk face.” Renato chuckles, pushing open the double doors to our bedroom.

“The kittens?” I ask as he places me down on the bed. Renato quickly returns to close and lock the bedroom doors before returning to me.

“Payton is watching them for now.” He must see the worry on my face. “I promise I left detailed instructions, and they have everything they could possibly need.”

I relax immediately, knowing Renato would never let any harm come to them. Payton is a sweetheart too. She was so kind earlier while helping me get ready.

“Do you think I could call Clara and check on her tomorrow?”

To my surprise, he drops to his knees beside the bed in front of me, making us almost eye level for once.
