Wrecking the Homewrecker (BOOK 2) EDITING

35

a very special chapter... written mostly by a special guest?!?? 🤔

Santiago

"What the hell is wrong with you?"

I furrowed my brows together and looked over at Asad, who was sitting beside me with a confused look on his face.

"What the hell are you talking about?" I asked, a small grin playing on my lips.

"That!" He yelled, pointing at my lips.

"What about it-" I said, before he cut me off.

"You're smiling way too much."

I just chuckled and shook my head. "Damn, my bad for being happy."

Toni just smiled. "Our man must be getting some good head, or something."

I just smiled and took a swig of my drink.

"No way?" Asad said, furrowed brows.

"Let us in, King Train!" Toni exclaimed, scooting up closer to the table.

I laughed. "What is there to know?"

Toni just smiled. "King's got himself a queen."

I just slowly nodded, eyebrows raised. "Good inference."

Asad just looked at me. "The hell? Who is it?"

I stayed silent, earning a grin from Toni.

"It's that babysitter of yours, isn't it?" He asked, "that old girlfriend of yours!"

Asad's jaw dropped. "No way, the hot one?"

I chuckled. "Yeah, that one."

"No fucking way!" Toni yelled, "you're being serious?"

I nodded. "I'm being dead serious."

"Wow," Asad said, "wow. I'm so fucking proud of you."

"Wait, wait," Toni said, "how long has this been going on?"

I shrugged. "Two months, or so?"

"What the hell!" Asad yelled.

"Why didn't you tell us earlier?"

"Well," I said, "Toni, you were in Greece doing your photography thing, Asad, you were in the Middle East," I said, shrugging with a smile.

"You couldn't have called us and told us?" Asad asked.

I stood up. "I could have. But we know, I'm a face to face kind of guy."

"I'm sure it's like that with Adora," Asad said, nodding, "but face to lips, kind of thing, if you get what I mean."

He nudged Toni's elbow and they both laughed.

"Funny," I said, "and not too far off."

I shot them winks and stood up, earning proud smiles from them.

"I'm so proud of you, San," Toni said, standing up, "you deserve a lady that's going to treat you right."

"I do, don't I?" I asked, leaning against the counter with a smile.

"Know your worth, King," Asad said, holding his beer up.

"And with being treated right comes with a lot of head. She's good, right?"

I smiled and tipped my beer back, taking another drink.

"So she's great," Asad said, "that's a given."

I just chuckled. "I keep my sex life on the low."

"Bull shit," Toni said.

"Okay," I said, "let me rephrase, as I've gotten older I've learned to keep my sex life more secretive."

"You never failed to tell us about how sloppy Alessandra was."

"Hey, don't talk about her like that," Asad said, "she's his friend now."

Toni just chuckled. "I'm also calling bullshit on that. How's your relationship blowing over with her?"

I shrugged. "The same way it should be, fine. Even though she kinda snapped on Adora the other day about trying too hard with the boys."

"I knew that would come up," Asad said, "dude, she started pissing on me for talking to them about girls. They can't be virgins forever, definitely not as Kings."

"Absolutely true," Toni said, nodding, "and I won't let them be, as their uncle."

I just rolled my eyes and smiled. "They're mighty curious about sex, wonder who taught them so much?"

They both puckered their lips out and shook their heads.

"So aside from the topic," Toni said, "do you love her?"

And with that, I froze completely.

Santiago

I sighed, rubbing my forehead as I set my glasses down on my desk. This case was so frustrating, I'd been working on it all day long.

I was just glad I was able to work from home.

There was a knock on the door, right before I heard the boys laughing on the other side.

"Can we come in, Dad?" Josiah asked, followed by Freddy agreeing with him.

"Sure," I laughed, leaning back in my chair as the door opened to reveal my three favorite people.

"We made dinner," Adora giggled, setting the tray down on my desk. "The boys were hungry, I wasn't sure how much longer you were going to be so I-"

"Adora, babe, calm down, it's fine." I stood up from my chair and made my way around to her, to wrap my arms around her.

I could hear Josiah and Freddy laughing, along with jokes about how I'd just recently called her babe.

"Can we eat now?" Josiah asked, raising his eyebrows. "We haven't eaten since lunch."

Freddy didn't say anything, he didn't even nod.

"Sure, let's go out to the table," I laughed, ushering the three of them out to the dining table. I didn't want to risk any of them spilling sauce on my desk.

"Dad it's like we're a family!" Freddy laughed, sliding in to sit next to Adora.

"I suppose it is," I agreed, shaking my head as I dished up some of the chicken Parmesan.

"So, how were your days?" I asked, feeling content.

"Good Dad. I got an A on my math test." Josiah smiled, shoving a piece of chicken in his mouth.

"Good job Jo."

Adora squeezed my thigh under the table, trying to subtly nod toward Freddy.

"And how did you do, Fred?" I asked, glancing at him.

"Fine, I guess," he mumbled, shrugging his shoulder as he moved his food around his plate.

"Wait, where did you go during lunch? We were playing football," Josiah mumbled, tilting his head to the side.

"I..." Freddy trailed off, his bottom lip trembling. "I had to stay in at lunch to finish that stupid test!"

"Fred..."

"No! It's not fair, Josiah is so good at everything. I feel so stupid all the time, math just doesn't make sense to me!" he yelled, glaring hard at Josiah.

"Hey, take it easy. It's okay," I interjected, resting a hand on his shoulder.

"Shut up, Dad. It's not okay. All I want is for you to be proud of me. And how can I do that when I have a D in math?" he snapped, just as a single tear rolled down his cheek.

Fred didn't say another word as he got up from the table and stormed upstairs. I heard his bedroom door slam a few seconds later.

I felt tears prick in my eyes as I glanced over at Adora.

I, Santiago King, was crying. I honestly couldn't even remember the last damn time I'd cried.

"It's fine, I'll go talk to him," Adora whispered, offering me a sad smile before she stood up from the table.

"So Fred's been really struggling?" I asked Josiah, glancing up toward the stairs.

"Yeah, Dad. I try to help him but it's just like he shuts me out," Josiah sighed, shaking his head.

I nodded, letting out a sigh.

Adora

"Hey," I whispered, biting my bottom lip as I leaned against the bedroom door.

Santiago was already sitting up in bed, his bare chest on show.

Not that I was complaining.

"Hey Baby." Santiago smiled, nodding his head next to him. "Come get in bed, it's late."

I nodded as I slowly stripped off my T-shirt and jeans, grabbing Santiago's shirt to slip on.

"My god," Santiago muttered, shaking his head as I climbed into bed next to him, "I am so fucking lucky."

I could feel myself blushing as he slowly rolled over on top of me, brushing his lips over mine.

"By the way, thank you for everything you've done for Freddy."

"Of course, it doesn't bother me at all to help him."

"I just... he's never blown up at me like that before," he sighed, leaning his head down to bury his face in my neck.

"I know. Just give him a little space. With him being a King, something like this really takes a hit to his ego," I giggled, raising my eyebrows at him.

Santiago just raised his eyebrows at me as he moved his head up to mine and kissed me softly.

He slowly moved his lips down my neck, smiling against my skin.

"Really, Santiago?" I asked, my voice breathless as I tangled my fingers in his hair. "Don't you ever get enough?"

"You should know damn well that I can never get enough of you," he growled, biting down on my skin before continuing his trail of kisses down my body.

Little did he know I'd never be able to get enough of him either.
