I’m sure that’s what he was going for.I mean… Arianna, Avianna. He wasn’t exactly being subtle.
But then something painful passes over his face. “But would you have… I mean, if it had ended up being Avia, would you have wanted… her?” His throat dips. “The same way you want me…?”
A psychotic grin sweeps my mouth right up. I move in front of him once more and cup his jaw. “Pajarito, are youjealous?”
He scowls. “No. Callate, idiota.”
I laugh out loud. “Baby bird, it was all about you. Trapping your sister in here would have been like… bait. To get you here.” I look around the cage. “This was all made foryou, Angelito.”
He shoots me a snarky look. “Am I supposed to be flattered by that?”
I brush my lips over his. “No sé… Is it working?”
He shivers, palms resting flat on my chest, as if maybe he wants to push me away, but isn’t able to make it work. “Fuck off, Diablo.”
I chuckle, seductively deep. “And now I have you,” I whisper, kissing gently; his mouth, his jaw, his neck. “Just like I always wanted.”
“I really don’t think I should take this necklace,” he hums. “It’s part of the Ivory heritage. Shouldn’t it go to… a Blanco?”
“Like who? My children?” I snort. He chuckles and shrugs. “Yea, that ain’t happening.”
“Okay, but what about your… future… spouse?”
I freeze.
“Like your wife, or your… husband?” He mumbles, audibly breathy. I lift my face to lock our eyes. “Someday…”
My mouth opens, but I can’t make anything come out. I’m just speechless, staring at him.
Wife…
Husband…
Someday…
“Or I could give it to you…” I whisper. “Now.”
He bites his lip, toying with the pendant. “I, um…”
“Come.” I hoist him up quick, holding him by the ass as his legs circle my waist.
Kissing, devouring his plush lips and those little breaths while carrying him over to the bed. I lay him down, and I’m mere seconds from stripping him to nothing but the necklace. But I can’t right now.
Shit, I do not want to tell him…
“Baby?” He mewls, fingering my hair.
“Hm…?” I kneel in front of him, taking his hands in mine.
“Were you able to… find Avianna?”
I blink at him, swallowing hard.
Wow… It’s like he knows.
They do say twins have an unspoken connection.
“Si, mi amor.” I close my eyes.
