“Good.” I sit next to my girl before slipping my arm around her shoulders. “We need to clean this shit up quickly.” Both men nod their heads in agreement. “I have plans to spend the immediate future wooing my girl, and I refuse to let this asshole disrupt my plans.”

Dimitri smirks before raising his glass to me. “Here’s to the Silver Spoon Falls water and the effect it has on us unsuspecting men.”

“I plan to stay the hell away from the shit,” Rick mumbles under his breath.

After Dimitri promises to keep me updated on the investigation, I grab my girl’s hand and head for the door. Right now, I have way more important matters to worry about than a few thousand missing dollars. Like proving to my little siren that we’re meant to be together.

By the time we arrive at my cabin, I’ve forgotten all about The King’s Castle’s problems. Inhaling Ariel’s sweet fragrance for the last fifteen minutes has filled my mind with indecent fantasies that I plan to turn into reality very fucking soon.

“I’m going to fix us some dinner if you’d like to look around a little.” I watch my little siren glancing around the cabin.

“What if I want to go home?”

A little voice in the back of my mind warms me that this is a test.

I fight the urge to blurt out that she’s already home but somehow manage to keep the words behind my teeth. “Do you want to go back to your cabin?”

“No,” Ariel admits before taking a deep breath. “I just wanted to see if you would let me.” If I live to be one hundred and thirty, I still won’t understand the female brain any more than I do right now.

Realizing it’s time to lay my cards on the table, I inform her, “I want you to stay here with me voluntarily, and I hope I’d have the strength to let you go if you really want to leave. But I’m not sure I could do it.” She drops down on the sofa and lets me spill my guts. “From the first moment I laid eyes on you, I knew you were the one for me. I want the opportunity to prove that I’m the man of your dreams.”

“Okay.” Ariel’s abrupt agreement shocks me for a millisecond, but I pull my head out of my ass and run with it.

“Let’s have dinner and get to know each other.” Hopefully, I’ll be able to get my cock under control by the time we finish.

Chapter 5

ARIEL

It’s scary, but I’m pretty freaking sure the mob boss owns me, heart and soul. “Thank you for dinner,” I tell him after we finish our meal. It’s amazing how easy I’ve found it to talk to him. I feel like I’ve known him forever.

“You’re welcome, siren.” Bruno takes my hand and helps me to my feet.

“Can I help you with the dishes?” I ask him and reach for my empty plate.

“No.” Bruno takes the plate from my hand and sets it back on the table. “You go relax while I worry about the kitchen.”

Oh, heck no. I’m not about to sit like a bump on a log while he does all the work. “I insist on helping.” I barely resist the urge to stomp my foot. “You cooked, so I’ll clean.” My stubborn side joins the conversation.

While Bruno silently stares at me, I hold steady and ready my arguments. “Since you insist. Let’s do the kitchen together.” I’m kinda shocked he gave in so easily, but I take the win and run with it.

I glance up periodically and find Bruno’s eyes following my movements. The heated look in his eyes causes my blood to slowly heat to boiling. By the time we finish, I’m ready to self-combust from the heat radiating from us.

“Would you like to watch a movie?” he asks me, and I really want to say yes, but I’m dead on my feet. My eyes are starting to droop, and my bed is calling to me. It’s been a crazy day. I need a full night of sleep and a little time to absorb everything. I’m coming to realize that the longer I stay with the hot mob boss, the harder it will be to get over him if things go south. A little voice in the back of my mind keeps insisting that’s it’s already too late for me. Bruno Revello already owns me.

“Maybe some other time.” I bite my bottom lip and ask him, “Could you take me back to my cabin? I need to get some sleep.” His blank poker face doesn’t let me in on his thoughts, and I start to worry as the silence around us stretches on.

“If you promise to spend the day with me tomorrow.” Bruno surprises the heck out of me. “Since you’re new to town, I would love to show you around Silver Spoon Falls and get to know you.”
