"Yow who the f**k is that with your cousin?" Levi asked Sage.
That made me look up from the conversation I was having with Deon our lead enforcer, to see our cousin April, who's also Deon's girlfriend headed our way with two other girls behind her. One of the girls I recognize as Kathy, daughter of James Henry, a current enforcer serving under my dad, the Head of the underworld 'el Diablo' himself Marco Stronghold. With Sage (my "brother" by all means and purpose) and I being the sole heirs to his empire, we've been trained from the tender age of five to be ruthless killing machines, and protect the ones we love by all means necessary, but the one problem my father didn't factor in when he was ruthlessly "training" us, was that we would only ever have love and protect our circle and my father was never apart of that circle. The resent we hold against him for the lies we've been force to live has left no space to love. We have three main enforcers we keep close, Deon our head enforcer, skill with his hands, Levi, head of technology and top hacker. We also have Mateo head of protection and torture, he's really a teddy bear but only to the circle, as we like to call ourselves. Together we are a force to be reckoned with and everyone knows it, our guys will officially take their places beside us when we take over. We were all raised together thanks to our fathers working together. The hate we all carry for our fathers might pretty much be what brought us closer over the years. Those three guys alongside our cousin April, and each other, are the only people we give a s**t about, we're the only ones that matter. We rarely let anyone in, we keep everything with in the circle, and this circle is the only place we feel one hundred percent safe and protected. Regaining my focus I now realize that the girls had been heading our way but were stop by Mateo, he's not allowing them to approach us; of course that doesn't sit well with April, who is about to rip him a new asshole; even though she knows that her friends aren't allowed so close to us.
With a sly smirk Sage raises an arm and signal to let them through, I just roll my eyes, but truly i was distracted by something completely different. Those dimples that stand out when Sage smirks, it's crazy but it has a weird feeling spreading in my stomach, not only that but the way he always licks his lips before smirking makes my d**k hard. Just thinking back to the
way heat spread over my body after watching him swallow while staring at my d**k earlier had me feeling tense once more. It had really pushed me over the edge, I don't have an excuse or explanation, it's just the way I feel. I've never been gay; I've never found men attractive, well that doesn't include Sage ofcourse. He was always attractive in my eyes but my point is, I've only ever felt this way towards him. He did it in a way no one's ever done before without even intending to do so. Just the thought of the way his tongue glided over those soft, plump pink lips, has my d**k stirring again. Trying my hardest shake to thoughts from my head, I stop dead in my tracks when I notice the floored look on Sage's face, turning to look in the direction he is looking, all the air leaves my body when I finally see what has everyone off their s**t.
Their she stands, our vixen!
It's been years but our girl is still as beautiful as ever. Taking my time, I scan her entire body from head to toes, and f**k me! those curves are doing things to my body, things that no female has manage to do in a while.
I look over at Sage and see that he's having the same reaction to our girl as I am.
I know it's crazy to still call her our girl, considering the last time we saw each other we had to be no older than 9 years old.
That doesn't matter though, she has always been ours, the only other person outside our circle who's aware of our secret. As kids Sage and I would follow her around during the time her family visited, being over protective and extremely jealous, so no other male outside our circle was allowed anywhere near our little vixen. She wasn't another fragile damsel in distress, no. She was the opposite actually; she was never afraid of us or to be herself around us, when we got into a fight, our little vixen stood tall at our sides, she never ran. To make it crazier, being with both of us never seem to scare her, and trust me when I say that from a very young age we had gathered fear from most around us. We were Deadly, and still are, she knew all of this, she knew all our secrets, all our weakness but all she saw was strength. Instead of being scared of us, she always said she felt protected and that pulled the three of us together even more. After her mother and April's had a huge misunderstanding, they hadn't been back in years, and considering that her mother never approved of Aunt Lucy's relationship with my dad, him being involved in crime and all that other stuff, we were not allowed to attend their funeral.
Now here she is, she's back and by the look on Sage's face, I can tell he is thinking the same thing I am but my mind has two targets, not just one and I feel it in my soul, her being here means it's time, time to take what's mine and ofcourse I must have them both, there is no in between. I always get what I want, Lexi and Sage are just the beginning. I'll be 18 in a couple of months and ready to take over my father's position, spilling blood if necessary but before I do, I must get the only two people who are capable of balancing the darkness within me.
Lexi
As we approach were the heartthrobs are standing, we are stop by a brooding hulk of a guy barring us from passing.
"Sorry kitten but they said their not seeing anyone tonight". said the brute.
" Mateo if you don't move right now I'll rip off your balls and stuff them so far up your ass there will be nothing else coming down for a while".
April replied with a look that had the brute who I now know and remember as Mateo swallowing hard. Luckily for him before he could respond a hand goes up signalling that it was ok for us to pass.
Walking up to the group I quickly realized I'd captured the attention of one of the two crazy hot Adonis I had seen earlier but soon it seems like I gain the attention of not just one but both as they locked their gazes on me. I can't seem to break whatever strong connection is flowing between the three of us, my body feels as if it was set on fire as I watch their gazes rake over my body from head to toes and back, after which both lick their lips. "Lord save my panties", I think to myself.
All too soon though it is broken by April as she points to both Adonis and says
"Cade, Sage I hope you both remember my cousin Alexis Marchini", from my mother's side of the family. Aunty Sarah was her Mother." April added for context.
At the use of the word "was" a small pain slices through my chest, but it is forgotten as quickly when she turns to me and says,
" Ali as you can see the answer to your earlier question"
before she could even finish that statement my cheeks turn a bright shade of pink; knowing she's talking about the comment I had made earlier to get under Courtney's skin.
she continues anyways and says,
"Yes they are still as fine as they were when we were kids, which I think is gross by the way, but to each their own" she adds to seal my faith and embarrass me further.
Slowly I lift my gaze to witness the hot looks being pass between the twins after which they both turn their gazes back on me with sexy smirk on both their lips. I still can't believe it's them, I mean, yes! they were always gorgeous but with all the added muscle and hair, lets not forget the fact that they are both the heirs to the underworld.
There's just something about them that screams danger and just that thought has my panties soiled all over again.
Breaking the tense atmosphere Sage reaches forward takes my hand, and gives it a sexy as hell kiss.
Was that a little tongue? I had to ask myself.
All too soon though he pulls back, and proceeds to give me a panty dropping smile which looks evil on it own accord.
"hi Vixen, nice to have you back, I hope I've lived up to your memories", he murmurs
Being this close, Lexi now notices that their both covered in tattoos, Sage is a little shorter , a little leaner but where Sage gives out sly smirks, Cade is all hard walls and muscle with a face that says he hardly ever smiles, if smiling's even possible at all.
Cade then steps forward, takes my hand while holding eye contact as he kisses where his brother kissed a minute ago; only this time she was sure it was Cade's tongue she felt. Wait! was that a tongue bar?!
Oh gosh the things these men are doing to her insides. Her cheeks must be the color of ripe tomatoes. When Cade pulls back, he looks me in the eyes and whispers.
"sweet as always" .
It was the depth of his voice that really had her melting, both men were blessed with voices that were capable of destroying panties everywhere.
" oh no, if you guys are going to get it on, can we please get out of here and get some food and drinks?!" April exclaims from beside me.
Rolling my eyes at her I force my blush away, while throwing her a questioning look.
"Already trying to be rid of me?" I teased back.
She narrowed her eyes before looking at me then back at the twins before warning.
" Don't play dump, I see the looks you guys are giving each other", before she could continue though, a hand circles her waist her from behind as a huge brute places a kiss on her cheeks, which then turns a bright shade of pink.
" Hey baby" said the brute of a guy.
April spins in his arms gives him a hot as hell kiss before pulling away.
" you were saying?" Sage teases with another of his sly smirks, Cade just lifts an eyebrow.
Rolling her eyes, she then turns her attention back to me
"ali meet Deon, my boyfriend, head enforcer for Cade and Sage, then turns to Deon and says "babe my cousin Alexis Marchini, soon to be Stronghold."
That comment brought back a blush to my cheeks.
Deon then looks at me, he doesn't take my hand just gives me a tip of his head
" nice to me you stronghold". he greets.
I almost choke on my drink, looking at him wide eyed.
He smiles then adds" she said it, no one denied it and by the looks these possessive assholes are giving you and your permanent blush I'd say she's spot on".
"Then it's settled". April settles.
