Shattered Vows (The Denton Family Legacy 2)

“No offense, your brother is an ass.” His woman stormed off the dancefloor, going toward the bar.
“Don’t you dare follow her,” Abel said, finding his voice even though pain was rushing from his dick all throughout his body. The pain was unlike anything he’d ever experienced, and the need to cry was strong.
Suck it up.
“Abel, I know you think I’m a lazy ass, but I did my job before coming here.” Damian shook his head. “I like her.”
“She’s mine.”
“You don’t get to call dibs. You haven’t been here two minutes.”
“Damian, I don’t think Abel’s doing it to call dibs,” Gideon said.
“Then what the fuck is it? I don’t get it.”
“She’s mine, as in, fucking mine.” Abel punched his chest, and glared at his brother.
It took a few seconds for the truth to finally set in, and Damian glanced back, his shoulders sinking. “Seriously?”
“Seriously. There is no mistaking this feeling.”
“You fuck everything.”
“This isn’t about fucking.” Abel got to his feet and coughed a little. He made to go toward her, but his brothers held him back. “Let me the fuck go.”
Damian placed a hand on his chest, keeping him away from the woman that was destined to be his. He grabbed his brother’s wrist, about to twist it.
“She’s not like other women, okay? I’m just wanting you to not be an asshole.”
“Do you know her?”
“I’ve been with her for the past hour, and we’ve talked. I’m not going to get in your way, but her knee has met your balls. Let me help you right now,” Damian said.
“You snap his wrist, Dad’s going to make you do all of his chores. You know Mom hates us all fighting, and then she’ll bitch at Dad. Hey, Dame, did you know Mom threatened boarding school to Landon?”
“Stop calling me Dame. For real? Wow, he must have really pushed Mom’s fuck-off button.”
Two other women walked up to the girl who owned his heart, and Abel watched as they all spoke as if they didn’t have a care in the world. He wanted her, more than he’d ever wanted anything else in his life.
“Her name’s Harper.”
“Introduce us.”
“Be calm, Abel. She’s … different.”
“I know she’s different. She’s mine.”
“Let him figure this shit out for himself. He’s not going to listen, so I don’t see a point in making him,” Gideon said.
“Fine.” Damian threw his arms up in the air and stomped over toward Harper.
“Oh, Damian, I want you to meet Lara and Betty.”
“Pleasure to meet you, Damian, I heard you’ve been keeping my girl here company,” Betty said.
“I’ve been doing my best.”
“See, you can go out, find a friend, and socialize,” Lara said, sighing. “It was so hard to get her to come out tonight.”
