“Why are men such cads?” Juniper huffed indignantly on Anna’s behalf.

“Women can be too,” Phineas reminded Juniper. “One word.

Denise.”

“She’s the worst. She gives women a bad name.”

“Denise is your ex–wife?” Fermín asked curiously, his eyes flitting towards Juniper longingly but giving her space. It was clear he was heeding the words Maeve obviously imparted to him before they’d come.

Even Inigo was not grabbing her hand the way he tended to and Anna, while she leaned closer to her, wasn’t touching her. They were all giving her space.

“She is my ex–wife.” Phineas nodded as he motioned for Lucia to begin bringing drinks to the table. “She convinced her grandfather, who was my grandfather’s war buddy, that the best way to honor their friendship was for us to get married. On his deathbed her grandfather convinced my grandfather I needed to take care of her. She plotted and planned it because she wanted to live the life of one of those unemployed housewives who get fancy credit cards and do nothing but spend money.”

almost lost this villa to her. My grandfather wanted me to really give the marriage a go, so he forced me to put this in the prenup. Unless she cheated, I was losing it. Thank heavens for Kyst and his inability to keep his cock in his pants.”

“Are they still together?” Anna asked as she moved to take her

seat.

“No. Kyst apparently likes to keep a roster of women on rotation.” Juniper made a face. “He hates all of them, allegedly. The way he treats women is abhorrent. I heard the way he talked to them, and it was eye opening. He always treated me like I was made of porcelain. I’m learning though, he was good to me to hide the bad. Like how he would make me dinner because earlier in the day he screwed another woman,” she made a face, “was all to gaslight me into not asking the right questions.”

“Well,” Adil said from where he was lounging on a banquette, “baby girl, we promise to treat you well, spoil you rotten and make you our queen but it’s not to gaslight you. It’s because we’re some of the most demanding, pains in the asses you can possibly imagine. You deserve to be spoiled because you have to put up with our shit.”

Phineas winked at her, as he leaned over her to kiss the top of her head, “he’s not wrong, sweetheart. We’ll give you the world, but we’ll probably make you want to kick us in the balls2 on a daily basis.”

“We do.” Beni nodded his agreement. “Do you know, at first we were going to each woo her individually and then somehow we realized that she deserves everything. I can give her sentimentality. Phineas can give her the rough edges she needs. Adil can give her the laughter she deserves. We all can give her love and adoration. She deserves it all.”

“Do you ever get jealous?” Anna asked as she took a seat next to her husband’s wheelchair at the table and accepted the fruity drink Lucia set before her.

“Not of each other but I admit to being horribly jealous of pretty much everyone else,” Phineas shrugged. “I’m not known to be an easy going fellow.”

“I can be. It’s why anyone who dares come after my wife better be fucking prepared to deal with me.” Phineas leaned on the .02 table as he took his seat, coolly on his elbow as he reached for

“Yes. It is so. The relationship she had with Kyst was the way it was because she has a beautiful, tender heart capable of loving someone even when they can be flawed. However, the minute he crossed lines she drew clearly, she was done. She’s not going to allow one man or three men to treat her poorly. She’s capable of speaking up for herself and she doesn’t want anyone, least of all a man who doesn’t know her at all, sticking their nose where it doesn’t belong. Stop questioning her partners as if she’s some weak–minded simpleton who hasn’t asked the questions she needs to ask.”

“She will manage it. She doesn’t need a man asking the questions she’s already going to ask.”

“But I’m curious.”

“So why ask the man and not her?” Maeve’s tongue slid around the front of her teeth as she challenged Fermín’s behavior. “Don’t treat my daughter like she’s some insipid waif without a mind of her own. I raised her a hell of a lot better. I was overtired and jet lagged yesterday but I’m awake today Fermín. Don’t treat my daughter like she’s a little girl. She’s a damn strong woman.”
