“I don’t even want to admit this to you because you’ll have me out here all the time, but I’m feeling pretty riled up myself, Rome.”
He smirked at her and gave her a wink.
“A woman who can handle a gun like you just did is pretty fucking sexy.”
“You like that?”
“Oh yeah.”
“I’d do anything to make you and your brothers happy. Even if it scared me,” she admitted and he scrunched his eyes together and felt his chest tighten.
“Just love us, baby, and we’ll take care of the rest.” He pressed his lips to hers and kissed her.
Chapter 12
“We’re all set. Hiatte said they’re leaving in a few hours to start moving the merchandise. We got our buyers with their trucks in position and ready to switch out the antiques to the illegal Russian weapons and ammunition. One call to the state police and they’ll get pulled over and be busted for illegal arms deals. Their entire business will be destroyed,” Weiller said to him.
“Excellent, and I’ll be sitting in an estate looking at jewelry and waiting to tell their woman that they’re a bunch of thieves and liars. I want that call as soon as the deal is done.”
“What are your plans for Rose?”
“I’m not sure yet. It all depends on how this pans out. She’s going to be pretty upset that her men are criminals. We’ll have to wait and see. They’ll never know what hit them.”
“This is one hell of a plan to seek revenge against them. You know that Rome will probably not even be in one of those trucks as he’s still recovering from Dubai.”
“I’ve thought about that, too. Did you know that there’s been a rise in home invasions lately? I hear masked men, heavily armed with military-like artillery, shoot up estates, kill residents, and steal everything they can in less than twenty minutes.”
Weiller chuckled.
“Sounds like a good plan. Our men will notify us when we’re at the party.”
“Very good. Let’s get ready.”

“The car is going to be here any minute,” Rose said as each of her men kissed her after making love to her for the afternoon.
“I’m going to be so tired,” she complained as Falco released her and Slade took her hand. They walked her downstairs.
“Good, then they won’t hire you again,” Mercury stated firmly.
“Nice, Merk,” Rome stated.
“Hey, I already told Rome that this was the last time I would model. Don’t make me change my mind to prove a point,” she said and Mercury snagged her from Falco and pressed her up against the wall by the front door.
He licked his lower lip and held her hands behind her back.
“Sweet, sweet Rose, you’re going to get a nice pink ass tonight when you get home from this, and it will definitely be your last night modeling. This body is ours.” He kissed her tenderly and she closed her eyes and moaned into his mouth. When he released her lips and then her hands she remained against the wall.
Her gut clenched and she was suddenly feeling scared. Frightened to leave them when she had spent so many hours with them the last week and a half.
“I don’t have to go. I can cancel,” she said to them.
Mercury narrowed his eyes at her. “That would be rude.”
“Let’s get through this and in four days we can celebrate your birthday and get ready for the gallery event next month,” Rylan added.
She nibbled her bottom lip.
“The car is here,” Remo said.
“I don’t want to go. I don’t want to leave you,” she said and felt her eyes well up with tears.
“We have business to take care of tonight anyway. Enjoy yourself, make some money since you refuse to even use that debit card we gave you, and tonight when you get home we’ll be here to make love and plan your birthday celebration,” Mercury said to her.
She pulled away from the wall and caressed his cheek.
“I love you. Be careful,” she said and they walked her out to the car and watched her go.

“Let’s get ready,” Mercury said to them. He could tell they were all on edge and even concerned about Rose.
