“I’m going to need you to give me an explanation as to why you’d be dropping my sister off at work the morning after her car was left in the parking garage all night.” Knox seethed after another few moments of silence. He stepped forward and bent over my desk, leaning on clenched fists. It was a tactic that probably scared the living shit out of most people. I could see where Aurora learned it from, and it almost made me smile. “And if it’s anything other than you saw her walking to work and gave her a ride,” he continued, “I’m going to rearrange that face of yours in the unlikely event that someone ever digs up your body from where I’ve buried it.”
I slowly stood from my chair before bending over to mirror his position. He had a couple of inches and probably twenty pounds on me, so my show of confidence caused another flicker of surprise and begrudging respect.
“I’m not going to lie to you, Knox. So you need to ask yourself if you really want me to answer that question.”
Knox’s eyes narrowed, and his gaze bored into mine until he finally blew out a breath and stood. “Fuck,” he grunted. He put his hands behind his head and walked in circle as he exhaled a calming breath. “What is it with my sisters finding the only fuckers on the planet who aren’t afraid of me?”
He sounded genuinely forlorn, and I had to suppress a laugh. When he faced me again, I shook my head and gave him a pointed look. “You and I both know that’s not what you want for them. Or you wouldn’t make the effort to try to scare us off.”
Knox grunted something unintelligible and scowled up at the ceiling. Then he locked eyes with me and pointed at my chest. “Drew vouched for you. That’s the only reason I’m giving you the opportunity to tell me what your intentions are with my sister instead of going straight to kicking your ass.”
This time, I couldn’t hold in my snort of laughter, but I sobered quickly when Knox surprised me by saying, “You think he didn’t tell me about your training?” I raised a brow, and he nodded as he crossed his arms over his chest. “You may have the skills to go head to head with me, but trust me when I say that none of your training will keep you from the wrath of a protective older brother.”
“I can’t imagine it’s any stronger than the instinct to protect the woman you love,” I replied solemnly.
His eyebrows shot up, and he scoffed, “The woman you love?”
I answered by turning around my laptop so that Knox could see the screen. It displayed the confirmation of the purchase for the ring I’d ordered for Aurora.
He stared hard at it for a moment, then sighed and relaxed his stance. “I’m so over this love at first sight bullshit.”
I couldn’t help the bark of laughter that escaped, nor the wide smile that broke out on my face. “Don’t knock it until you try it,” I quipped.
Knox grimaced and shook his head. “Over my dead body.” Then he headed for the door.
Before he stepped out, he turned back and pointed at me. “I know, I know,” I said before he could speak. “If I hurt her, you’ll kill me.” My tone held no sarcasm because if it were my sister we were talking about, I’d be making the same threat. “You’d have every right.”
He nodded but as he did another about-face, he threw one last thing at me over his shoulder. “Honestly, I’d be more afraid of what my sisters would do to you. They’re a hell of a lot more creative and a whole lot more vindictive than I am.”

“Ride my face, baby,” I growled before I sucked hard on Aurora’s clit. “That’s right, fuck my tongue.” Her hips undulated faster, and she moaned as her head dropped back. I clutched her ass and held her against my mouth as I plunged my stiffened tongue into her pussy over and over.
“Yes! Yes!” she shouted as her body began to tense.
“Play with your nipples, Aurora,” I commanded. “Pretend it’s my mouth on you, baby.”
She did as she was told, using her thumb and forefinger to pluck and twist her rosy peaks. I thrust two fingers inside her and latched onto her clit. “Yes! Will! Oh, yes!” she screamed as her pussy clamped down hard, and she fell apart.
I was already leaking steadily, and the taste of her sweet cream filling my mouth had me ready to blow. Sliding out from under her, I quickly got to my knees and came up behind her. Taking her hands, I kissed her damp neck as I placed them on the headboard. “Hold on, baby,” I growled. “I’m gonna fuck you hard and fast.” Then I grasped her hips and held her steady as I slammed balls deep into her.
