She leaned forward and pressed her lips to his.
“I don’t want to go anywhere but right here with you. Whatever is coming, we’ll face it together. We’ll start a new life just us…well, Kevin’s invited of course since he’s family.” She jerked a thumb at their driver.
“Thanks,” Kevin said over his shoulder.
“You don’t want to leave me? Even after all the spankings and my past?” He cradled her face in his hand.
“Even after all of that. Because you aren’t that guy, not anymore.”
He brushed his lips across hers. “No?”
She sighed and moved to sit beside him, leaning her head against his shoulder. “No.”
“Who am I then if not that guy?”
“You’re my Daddy.” She looped her arm through his and hugged him. “And I love you.”
“I love you too, Ariana.” He tilted her chin back and captured her mouth in a deep kiss, leaving her breathless.
“On one condition,” she finally said, pulling away from the kiss.
“Name it.”
“We don’t give up on the others. I don’t know what we do, or how we do it. But we don’t give up and forget about the House and the girls forever. I wouldn’t be able to live with myself and truly be happy if we did.”
Costello took a long moment to think about the request. His body tensed, but he didn’t lessen his hold of Ariana. Although his eyes darkened, something flickered in their depths.
Acceptance? Determination? Resolution?
A plan?
“Yes.” His words ricocheted through her body as he finally said, “We won’t give up. But right now, allow me to protect you. One Lullaby girl at a time.”
The End
Should we rescue another Lullaby girl?
