"What?" I glanced down at the time; I have an hour to be ready.

"This," she showed me a black beaded bracelet with an A as the only white bead. "Merry Christmas, Mariano."

"Aurore—"

"It's okay, mon ours," she slipped it into the same wrist as the watch. "Just tell Apollo and Arabella you got it to represent them." The girl showed me her left wrist "I have mine but I'll hide it under my jacket," hers was an inverted version of mine with white beads and the M in black.

I chuckled placing my hands on her waist "I'll get you something the day after tomorrow and send it to HQ."

"You don't have to get me anything," her arms laced around my neck. "Just say hi to Viola and Serafina for me."

"I will," a grin formed on my lips after our lips connected in a gentle kiss which rapidly became hungry and passionate as my hands picked her up by her thighs and pinned her between the wall and my body.

"How much time do you have?" Her hands nimbly unbuckled my belt as my face dipped into her neck to kiss her sensitive flesh.

"As long as you want."

"You look so handsome," a big smile played on my lips as I fixed the lapels of Napoleon's tux jacket.

"How eager are you to have a mini Ilya?" Apollo asked, handing me a glass of rum.

"I could snatch this little boy right now," my right hand grabbed the glass as my left index poked Napoleon's nose, making him laugh. "But I don't want your wife to hunt me down and chop my dick off."

"Good boy," I immediately turned around to find Arabella wearing a burgundy velvet gown with some sort of white undergown, a gold chain-link choker around her throat, gold-plated pearl earrings, a gold-tone pearl headpiece and you could see the points of her gold stilettos.
