"He's sleeping. I got Doc to check on him an hour ago and Oscar was given more pain meds just to help him rest. I'd say he's more rattled than hurt. The marks should be better in about a week or less." I paused to let Ghazi ask questions and when he didn't, I carried on."I've been digging and your uncles are desperate, they reach out to Yubkin Komarov. But those Russian thugs are a mess right now. They're struggling internally, we have a good chance of ending all this. You just need to say the word." I offered, knowing though his uncles were the bad apples, they were still family."They did try to kill me. I need to think about this. Give me time. And where are you coming back to the city?""Oscar, he wanted to go to your place, but I know you have Remy there...so I," The words linger, cause I know he still has feelings for his ex. Things didn't end well between them but my cousin means well."Fuck, thanks for doing this for me. But I think you need to s

"You what?" I almost yelled at him before I realized I had no right to do so since I broke up with Oscar many many months ago. If he were to find another man, Zal would be the one person that I trust with Oscar's life. Maybe he was over me. That should be good, right? Shit...now I feel like a jerk for thinking about Oscar while I have Remy waiting for me in the living room."Ghazi, you tossed him months ago. Maybe you still have feelings for him, but you didn't even call him when he needed you. He was waiting for you to fucking call. I watched him. The man is fragile as a freaking virgin.""And what did you do? You kissed him. Tell me if I'm wrong." I knew I sounded like a jerk. Zal and I rarely fight, but when we do we tend to do it the harsh way."You're not wrong, this is why I'm telling you because I don't like secrets between us. I want you to know. I need you to tell me that this is okay, cause as much as I like the guy. You're still my family."His

I nearly panicked when I was told that Remy left the building, walked around the nearby area and now sitting in a park, alone, in the dark. I was glad that I had one of our men watching him. He reported earlier that Remy met with Jacqueline for coffee, before going straight back to the apartment. But afterward, he just walked around aimlessly. I tried calling his phone but he was not picking up, only to find out later that he left it on the kitchen counter.Now that I have him in my arms I should feel better, but instead, I feel horrible, thinking everything was somehow my fault. Even our intimacy seemed different like there was something more that he was keeping from me. He felt fragile in my arms, sensing that he could break any moment. I still didn't get why he kept on thinking that I would leave him. The guilt was so much that I decided to just hold him."Why don't you take a nap, I'll order dinner. Okay?"When I was back, Remy was wide awake. His eyes were

My heart warmed seeing Remy curled up to my side when I woke up the next day. He looked perfectly handsome even with his eyes closed. I carefully scooted away and let him take my pillow, curling it to his chest before he was back to let out the cutest little snoring sounds.My meeting was scheduled at noon, a luncheon with my father's business partners that would benefit when I ended everything with my uncles. I met a couple of them, several times when Dad was still alive. Though my parents' disappearance is still a mystery, it was common knowledge now that I suspected my uncles had something to do with it.I needed to nip them in the bud. I needed to make sure my uncles wouldn't ruin my plans. They said that they knew the organization better than me, but what my uncles' didn't know was that I keep in touch with my parents' colleagues. Those who had been screwed by my uncles. I had been going behind my uncles back for years, dealing businesses with them, feeding them l

Ghazi had been working too damn hard lately and I was seeing less and less of him. Okay maybe I'm just that needy, but I was so horny for him that I waited in my new pair of skimpy briefs and matching baby blue socks that went up to my knees.I positioned myself on the end of the bed. I was on my back, my head on the edge, my knees bent and sprawled, ready for him. I played on my phone just waiting to greet him by watching gay porn and making myself hard for him. I even got a surprise for him hidden where he least expected. I smiled wickedly when I took a selfie of my current position and sent it to him.Me: Do you like my new socks?Ghazi: Fuck, yes. Order more. Get some that reach your thighs. I grinned before typing back my answer.Me: Pastels? Or rich sexy colors?Ghazi: Pastels and nude. I'm on my way back. I didn't reply to his text. Instead, I ordered more me
