Sky laughed sheepishly. “What?” she repeated. “You’re really asking me that?”

She turned in her seat so fast the seatbelt tugged against her shoulder. Her hands curled into fists in her lap, nails biting into her palms because if she didn’t anchor herself to something, she might actually scream.

“You stood up in front of everyone,” she said, voice tight, “and acted like kissing me would personally ruin your life.”

Charlie’s jaw flexed. “That’s not…”

“And then,” she cut in, steamrolling right ov

  • Babysitting the Mafia Princess   50. I Tell Him Myself

    Charlie’s blood turned to ice. Shit…The glass nearly slipped from his suddenly numb fingers as he stared at Marcus, whose face was carved into hard lines of disapproval.“What do you mean?” His voice came out steadier than he felt.“You know exactly what I mean, Charlie,” Marcus replied, his voice low and controlled in a way that was far more dangerous than shouting. “Answer the question.”Charlie’s mind spun. How long had Marcus been standing there? What had he seen? What had he heard?This wasn’t just about breaking a rule. This was about trust. Loyalty. A contract signed in ink and enforced in something far less forgiving.“I was checking on her,” Charlie said carefully. “She had a nightmare.”Marcus didn’t blink. “In your bed?”Charlie swallowed, his throat dry as paper.. There it was. No misunderstanding. No room to maneuver. Denial would be useless. Marcus wasn’t a man who asked questions without already knowing the answer.“Listen,” Charlie said, forcing himself to hold the ol

  • Babysitting the Mafia Princess   49. False Alarm

    Charlie had always known Sky was dangerous.Not the loud, obvious kind of dangerous. Not the kind that carried a weapon. No, she had been worse. The kind that smiled while suggesting something completely insane.The kind that could make him forget years of training with just one look.“I’m not going to apologize for what just happened,” Sky said, sitting up and pulling the sheet around her. “And I won’t let you either.”Charlie sighed, running a hand through his hair. “I wasn’t going to apologize. Not to you, anyway.”“Then who? My dad?” She rolled her eyes. “He doesn’t own me.”“No, but he does own me,” Charlie muttered. “At least until I finish my contract.”Sky’s expression softened. “How much longer?”“Five years.”“We could tell him,” Sky suggested, though the uncertainty in her voice betrayed her. She had known as well as he did that her father would never accept it.Charlie let out a humorless laugh. “Yeah, that would’ve gone well. ‘Hey, sir, just wanted to let you know I was s

  • Babysitting the Mafia Princess   48. Smooth Talker

    Sky almost giggled as Charlie stared at her with a dumb expression on his face."The girl?" he asked as if he didn't hear her correctly."Yes, the girl. Who was it?" she asked again."Err...no one," he said."Uh-huh." She rolled her eyes. "Define no one.""It was a long time ago," he said. "It doesn't matter who she is.""It matters to me. You are the same age as me and have already had sex. So I want to know who it was. Was it someone from school?" she pressed."No. Nothing like that. She was...um...older," he said, scratching the back of his neck."Older?" Sky repeated, eyebrows shooting up. "How much older?"Charlie winced. "A few years.""That is not a number," she said curtly, slowly losing patience. Why won't he just spill it already!"She...she was seventeen and I was...fourteen," he said.Sky gasped."It wasn't as bad as you think," he said quickly. "It's not like I was forced or something. It was kind of part of my training.""Your training?" Sky repeated slowly, her shock sh

  • Babysitting the Mafia Princess   47. Who Was the Woman?

    Charlie's breath caught in his throat as Sky's fingers tugged at his waistband. His mind raced, trying to process what was happening. Part of him, the responsible part was still screaming to stop this. But that voice was growing fainter by the second."Wait," he said, catching her hands. "Are you really sure about this?"Sky rolled her eyes, but the gesture was undermined by the trembling of her fingers against his. "If you ask me that one more time, I swear I'll...""I just need to know," he interrupted, his voice low and serious. "Because once we do this, we can't go back."Something in his tone must have reached her because Sky's expression softened. "I know what I'm doing, Charlie."With a deep breath, Charlie stood from the bed, his eyes never leaving hers as he pushed his sweatpants down and stepped out of them. The cool air of the room raised goosebumps across his skin, but it did nothing to cool the heat building inside him.Sky's gaze traveled down his body, lingering on the

  • Babysitting the Mafia Princess   46. Your Turn

    Sky felt Charlie’s heart hammering against her palm, the rhythm matching her own frantic pulse.She couldn’t believe this was happening, that she was going to do this with Charlie. His body was solid beneath hers, all muscle and heat, exactly as she’d imagined.“I don’t care about anything else, so stop arguing with me already,” she whispered, shifting her weight on his lap. The friction sent a delicious shiver up her spine. “We’re here now.”Charlie’s eyes were dark, conflicted, but his hands betrayed him. They were gripping her hips like he was afraid she would disappear.Sky leaned forward, capturing his mouth again, savoring the taste of him. It was better than she imagined. So much better.His fingers threaded through her hair, cradling her skull as he deepened the kiss. Sky melted against him, her body moving instinctively. The thin cotton of her sleep shorts did nothing to disguise how much she wanted him. When his tongue traced her bottom lip, she opened to him with a soft moa

  • Babysitting the Mafia Princess   45. Not With Me

    Charlie’s world collapsed to a single point of contact. Sky straddling him, her words hanging in the air between them.“Your father…”“Isn’t here,” she finished for him. “It’s just us, Charlie. No one has to know.”The weight of her on his lap was unbearable. Perfect. Terrifying. Her hands pressed against his bare chest, fingertips burning like brands against his skin. Charlie couldn’t breathe. Couldn’t think. Every cell in his body screamed for him to pull her closer, to give in to what they both clearly wanted.But he couldn’t. He knew he couldn’t.“Sky,” he managed, his voice barely recognizable to his own ears. “You don’t understand what you’re asking.”“I understand exactly what I’m asking.” Her eyes were fierce in the dim light, determined in a way that made his chest ache. “I want you. Not some random guy at school. Not some stranger. You.”Charlie’s hands tightened on her waist involuntarily. He needed to push her away, but his body refused to cooperate. She was so close, her
