Fierce Queen (L.A. Ruthless Series Book 2)

I was sitting reading in the den when Alejandro walked into the room. It had been three weeks since he’d rescued me from Carlos’s basement, and my injuries were fully healed.

‘Hey, princess. Where is Lucia?’

‘Your mom took her shopping. She needs some new maternity clothes.’

‘You didn’t go with them?’ he frowned at me. Usually, I enjoyed a shopping trip as much as the next gal.

‘No. I was feeling a bit funny earlier.’

‘Are you okay?’ he sat beside me and I smiled. His overprotective side had kicked into overdrive since the incident with his uncle.

‘I’m fine now. I just felt a little lightheaded and tired.’

He placed his cool hand on my forehead. ‘You sure you’re okay now?’

‘I’m better than okay now,’ I said as I slipped my arms around his neck and pulled him to me for a kiss.

He kissed me softly at first, his hands fisting in my hair.

‘So, we’re alone?’ he panted as he broke our kiss.

‘Apart from your small army. Yes,’ I flashed an eyebrow at him.

‘Then why are you still wearing panties, princess?’ he growled as he pushed me back against the sofa, slipping his hands beneath my dress and pulling my panties off. He stuffed them into his pocket before he leaned back down against me. ‘I want you nice and wet when I bury my cock in your pussy. So, do you want to come on my mouth or my fingers before I fuck you?’ he growled.

‘Both!’ I groaned.

‘Greedy, princess,’ he chuckled softly as his head disappeared between my thighs.

After Alejandro had nailed me to the sofa, I lay in his arms, listening to the sound of his heartbeat against my ear.

‘I want to talk to you about something before Lucia comes back,’ he said as he brushed my hair back from my face.

‘Oh? What is it?’ I asked.

‘I made an appointment with a lady from the adoption agency,’ he said and my heart felt like it stopped beating in my chest.
