Chapter 107
Four or Dead
The rich spices of the curry eliminate the last traces of Angelica's taste from my mouth. I take another mouthful and wash it down with some water. While I like spicy food, I am not into food that literally is destroying my taste buds. But it is either this or having to remember that I willingly made Angelica come on my tongueMaterial © NôvelDrama.Org.
I am not into eating pussies or kissing women-except for the one who should have been my wife. Her death still hurts, and to be honest, I don't think I will ever be over it
The link connecting me to not only Alekos and Reyes but also to Angelica is like a slap in the face. I had tried bonding with Emily, from the moment I knew she was the woman I wanted to spend the rest of my days with. However, no matter how many times I tried to link my
soul to hers, it never worked
Alekos is quiet as he takes a big bite from his burrito. For a moment, he closes his eyes, enjoying his food. "The new takeout place has decent food," he says, between bites
I am not picky about food, but Alekos is an absolute snob. He loves to have fancy meals. It must be a rich guy thing. Even if I was born to a group of four blood-brothers and their bonded, my folks never had lots of money. Two of my fathers were addicted to gambling, while my mother loved shopping, which led to lots of debt. There had been nights when I went to bed hungry
"You should try the curry."
I slide my takeout container toward him, but he wrinkles his nose. "I like food that I can actually taste."
I laugh, before I take another mouthful. "So, Angelica Hernandez. Our bonded."
Luis Hernandez is a well-known Duke. He usually stays out of trouble, but his drug cartel has gained him plenty of enemies, which led to threats to his family. He even had a few not-so-pleasant encounters with Alekos' father-Nikolas. After the last one, which ended with the death of some loyal men to the Raptou family, I did some digging about him, and it was then that I learned about Angelica. She has lived a very sheltered life. Up until now, at least
"Angel," Alekos corrects me. He finishes his food and crinkles the wrapper, before tossing it in the bin under his desk. "I did not expect the bond to form so... fast."
I am grateful it did, because I don't know what I would have done if I would have had to repeat the mating rite
"You could have given me a heads up about Angel," I complain
I knew that choosing a bonded would happen sooner or later, but I wish it would have been later. Much, much later. But Alekos needs heirs. He might be a blood-brother, but he is one of the future Elders, and it is a must for Elders to have children. The more, the merrier. Or so they say
I have never been one to want kids. Emily had always wanted a big family, and I was willing to do everything to make her happy. Even get her pregnant
Ever since Nikolas' death, the house has been... empty. He might have been a Lord, but damn, he was funny. He even knew all the stupid dad jokes. A child will fill the house with laughter and happiness
Alekos shrugs. "How could I have known she would come here and ask for my help? But I can't say I am sorry."
"Oh, I could tell by how you were looking at her, that you were more than happy," I smirk. "I think this is the first time you actually liked a woman this much."
He might have agreed with making Emily our bonded, when I suggested it, but it had been because he values our friendship. This is why I didn't make a fuss about Angel becoming ours
"If I didn't like her, why link her to us?" Angel's black high heels are still on Alekos' desk, and he runs a finger along them. "What do you think of her?"
If he is asking me this, then he has it really bad for her

"For starters, she is beautiful. But short." I have always been into taller
women. Emily was tall
"She is perfect as she is. Can you imagine how she will look, when we
get her pregnant?"
I quirk an eyebrow. "We? The firstborn always belongs to the leader of the group."
Alekos huffs. "I don't care who fathers our children. We are in this together."
I suppose we are. Ever since I lost Emily, my sex drive has been low, but I love watching people fuck. From time to time, I will indulge myself to be with Angel
"Can you imagine Reyes' kid? He will probably be as obsessed with knives as Reyes is."
Blood-brothers are usually assassins. I am one too, but I like computers more, and I am a good hacker. But Reyes? He kills without blinking
Without remorse. His weapon of choice is knives. And he has an entire collection of them
Alekos' mouth twitches. "Angel will probably have a heart attack. Did you see the look on her face, when Reyes put the blade to her neck?"
I finish my curry and throw the container in the bin. "If Reyes keeps scaring her like that, she will end up running."
"Which will lead to her being punished."

and other heavy stuff
"Do you think she will adjust to her new role as a Lady?" Lords might love their women, but it is a kind of love not many can survive
Duchesses, from what I heard, are prudes, and the Dukes barely touch them, preferring to have mistresses
"She will," Alekos replies
I have my doubts, but I decide to keep them to myself
I rest my ankle on my left knee. "I know Angel is our woman now, but did you ever consider she is here to spy on you?" I should have thought of that, before linking her to me
Alekos puts his hands behind his head and leans into his chair. "I did, but Angel is not a good actress. I would have seen through her facade immediately. Nah, she is genuinely scared of Carlos."
As she should be. I have seen the bodies of some of his victims. They shocked me to the core
