He’s not yelling. Actually, he sounds completely cold andcalculated, and I think that may just be the scariest part. Still my dick thickens behind my zipper. I like this possessive version of him. It’s fucking hot, and now I just want to go home and fuck him until he isn’t pissed anymore. My hand shoots out and grabs his wrist gently.
“It’s fine, Chaos. Sit down.” I smile lovingly at him. It’s forced and not at all our typical style, which makes him pause for just a second.
“It’s not fine, Beast. This douche wants to act like it’s a fucking joke when it’s anything but. You’ve done so much for your brothers and get none of the credit for it. It’s bullshit.”
“I hear you, really I do, but I didn’t do what I did for recognition. I did it because they’re my brothers and I love them. They deserved two parents, even if those two parents were just their older brothers.”
It only takes one gentle tug before he collapses back into the chair beside me. Lukas Fischer watches on with something that looks like pride in his eyes. It’s hard to tell because he can also barely hide his excitement over the dramatic scene that just played out in front of him. Lukas is a lot of things, and at work he’s as stoic as they come, but here? That man is nowhere to be found. He thrives on the drama, deciding to even have a dramatic flare himself most of the time.
Breaking contact with Lukas, my eyes flit to Mac and Lee next on instinct. Mac looks contemplative but doesn’t say a single word. Lee sits beside him, gently rubbing the back of his tattooed hand with her thumb. Dieter looks so entertained and Hannah looks as excited about the spectacle as her Opa was. Annie won’t look up from her lap, and if I’m not mistaken, I see a little bit of a tremble. Calvin looks like I need to check his blood pressure with how red his face is. I also think it’ssafe to assume that he has no idea what Lukas does but knows enough to know Mac and I are BOCG.
The rest of dinner has the most awkward undertone, so when it’s over and Hannah grabs my hand to ask me to go play with her, I practically jump at the offer. She leads me into her playroom, and no sooner than I sit down does she start handing me crowns. It isn’t until she hands me the fifth one that I decide to inquire about them.
“What are all these for? What are we playing?”
“Well, you have to pick ones for you and Cub. Which one do you think my Cub would like?” She smiles brightly.
I pick the orange crown for myself and one that’s supposed to be gold for Chaos.
“Why do we need these?” I ask her.
In a quiet voice like she’s trying to tell a secret, she attempts to whisper, “Because you and Cub are Kings. My Papa says that it doesn’t just have to be Queens and Kings that get married, like Tante Lee and Onkel Mac. Sometimes Kings and Kings get married, and sometimes Queens marry other Queens.” She states matter of factly.
“That’s true. What do you think about that?”
“I think that’s great. My Papa said that you and Cub may get married one day. That would be so much fun. I love my Onkel Mac, and I know you’re his brother. Which means I love you too.” She throws her arms around my neck excitedly, squeezing tightly and almost knocking me onto my back.
I can feel his eyes on me as Hannah and I go back to playing and picking out what things she thinks we should use if we ever get married. If this is what Maeve is like in a few years, I’m in huge trouble. We play different games for hours, and when Jake and I leave that night, my heart is just a little fuller.A spot in my heart that’s been solely reserved for Rhett and Maeve just grew a little bit more to include a Hannah sized cut out.

Chapter Twenty-Nine
Jakob
The drive home isn’t long as we ride in a comfortable silence. Dec’s lost in his own head, and that’s fine with me, for now. Watching him play so effortlessly with Hannah made me fall just a little more in love with him. I’ve seen him interact with his niece and nephew before. I’ve also seen how excited he is to be an Uncle again when Nix gives birth, but watching him withmyniece and treating her just like he does his own pulls at my heartstrings.
We pull into the garage of my house and he’s instantly out of the truck. Before I can question why the hell he’s acting like my truck is seconds from blowing up, he practically rips the driver’s side door off the hinges. The feral and barely contained lust in his eyes tells me exactly what he’s wanting. His big hands grab my thighs and turn me in myseat so I’m facing him with my feet resting on the nerf bar.
He’s moving so quickly that I can barely keep up. Especially when his mouth crashes to mine at the same time as his hands frantically try to unbuckle my belt. My cock has been hard since we left my brother’s house, and if I’m honest, it was hard during dinner too. He’s so distracted by my belt that I easily take control of our kiss. I’m out of the truck and blindly leading him backwards into the house in four seconds flat. Once the door to the garage slams closed by my foot, he pulls back abruptly.
“What the hell? I wanted to suck your dick in the truck and then bring you in here to fuck.” His pout is fucking pitiful, but I don’t care. I’m tired of letting him take charge of this.
“Shut up, Declan.” I bark out at him. “Get your ass in the bedroom and grab that bag. I’ll be in there in a minute.”
His eyes flash with defiance, and for a second I think I’ve pushed him too far before he surprises me by pressing a fast kiss to my lips, turning, and walking into the bedroom without another word. Once he’s gone, I pull out my phone and call the bar. Ally confirms that everything’s running smoothly, and she has it handled. Liam and Ty are there with her tonight, so I know she’s good if she needs back up. I’m only on the phone for a few minutes tops, but I know it’s just enough time to have Declan an impatient mess. He’s going to lash out at me, and I can’t fucking wait.
I don’t even have the door pushed open fully when I feel his hand cup my throat. He isn’t hurting me, but he is definitely flexing his dominance.
So he likes to be pushed, but he won’t submit. Got it.
I’ve never been submissive. I mean, don’t get me wrong, for the most part I’m a go with the flow kind of man. But inthe bedroom I’ve always controlled the situation. I’ve never thought about what submitting would even look like, but when I automatically melt into Declan’s hold on me, I know that he’s the only one who pulls this side out of me. I’ll do whatever the hell he tells me to as long as his eyes keep burning with desire like they are right now.
My back presses against the wall as I actively fight the smirk threatening to break out over my face. “So, you think you can boss me around, Chaos?” His deep and gravelly voice makes the hair on my arms stand on end and my body feels like it’s been electrocuted.
“I figured it couldn’t have hurt to try.” The smirk finally breaks through, and I know I’ve annoyed him instantly.
“Couldn’t it have?” He looks at me like he knows a secret that I now desperately want to know.
