“They’ll kill him as soon as the deal is done,” Curt says, and we all turn to face him. “The loan sharks are circling him because they know my brother paid him for his daughter.”

“As your attorney, I am advising you not to repeat that.” Tidas finally looks up and sighs. “They’re going to sell it to him, and I don’t believe he has any idea that they’ve falsified the numbers to make them look better.”

“If he goes through with it, Curt is right.” I rub my eyes with the heels of my hands. “This will affect my wife, and that’s exactly what I want to avoid. If he sinks this money into this business, they’ll come after her mom next, then her. I’ve already paid once, and I’m prepared to do it again, but I can’t keep funding his stupidity.”

“So let them take him out and then settle.”

I look over at my brother, knowing he’s right even if it’s the coldest of solutions. The more money I give that man, the more he’ll spend. He’s lost his fucking mind and keeps digging a hole to try to get back on top.

The door chimes behind me, and I turn around to see a pregnant woman coming into Tidas’s office.

“Oh, I’m sorry. I didn’t realize you had a client,” she says, starting to back out.

“It’s all right, Valerie.” Tidas goes straight to her and pulls her into his arms before he kisses her temple and whispers something in her ear. She laughs, and the way she looks at him—it’s like he’s her entire world.

That’s what I want my Phoebe to look like when she sees me. I also want her full with my child, and my cock begins to swell with the need for it.

“We'll talk later,” I say to Tidas, and I hear Curt protest behind me. “Later,” I say again, and he rolls his eyes as he follows me out of the office.

We’re silent on the way home as we both think through what to do next, but when we pull up to the gate, Curt finally breaks.

“What’s the plan?”

“I’m going to make some phone calls and see if I can threaten the company out of making this deal.”

“Couldn't you just buy it out from under him?”

“I could, but this idiot will just turn around and buy something else. He’s been stupid with his investments, and now he’s doubling down at the last second to try and hit it big. He’s playing with his family’s life like it’s Vegas.” I sigh as the gates open and nod to security. “Plus I don’t want the company if it’s failing. What I want is for him to pay off his debts and go live a quiet life where I never have to hear from him again.”

“Wishful thinking,” Curt says as we get out of the car and he walks over to where he’s parked in the driveway. “I’ll be by tomorrow, and you can tell me how it goes.”

“Call before you come,” I bark at him, and he laughs.

“What’s the fun in that?”

I scowl at him, and he laughs and drives off the property. “Asshole,” I hiss as I make my way into the house and straight to my office.

I’d love nothing more than to go and find Phoebe and fall onto her soft body right now, but I need to make these calls and get this shit taken care of. The sooner it’s done, the sooner I can impregnate my bride. I’m ready to have her broken in so I can ride her anytime I want.

It’s a long time later when I finally get someone on the phone and sit back in my chair to listen to their side of the story. I’m playing with the pen on my desk as they go on and on about net capital and investment portfolios. I’m barely paying attention because I just want to get to the part where I tell them they can’t sell.

My office door creaks open, and I’m surprised because Mrs. Birch never disturbs me. When I see Phoebe peek her head around, I smile at her, finally releasing a breath in my lungs I didn’t know I was holding. This whole time I’ve been trying to protect her and not think about the worst possible outcome.

She steps inside and quietly closes the door behind her. I hold up my hand, silently telling her to come to me.

She walks over slowly, and I see she’s got on leggings that cling to her thick thighs and round ass. I clench my jaw because she should be in dresses. I want easy access to her at all times.

When she comes around my desk, I turn my chair to the side so I’ve got the phone against my right ear and she’s standing between my legs. I’m already so fucking hard for her, and seeing her bite her bottom lip makes me want her mouth around my dick.
