All Chapters of Mafia Kings: Ronan : Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

EVERLEIGH It didn't take as much convincing Gran to leave the apartment as I thought it would. But why would it? If Ronan is correct, then Gran has been putting off moving in with his grandfather for quite some time now. I can't believe she didn't tell me. It's not that I would have thought any less of her. She never does anything for herself. I don't even remember the last time she took a vacation that wasn't longer than a weekend away. Come to think of it, I wonder if those weekends away were with Patrick?I never knew my grandfather, he died before I was born, and what little I did know of him was that he was a mean son of a bitch. So what if Gran has a weekly romp in the sheets with Ronan's grandfather. They're both consenting adults.How is that any worse than what happened in my bedroom this morning?Gran and I rode the elevator up to the twentieth floor. Patrick's apartment was on this floor along with Rowan's. Ronan rang the doorbell to his grandfather's apartment and the t

EVERLEIGHSEVERAL HOURS EARLIERI stood in the walk-in closet and just stared. It’s only been an hour or so since we went down and met with Rogan, so I know I haven't fallen asleep and missed a day or ten. What Ronan referred to as my side of the closet was relatively empty when we had left. Now I’m standing in a fully stocked closet. Did I fall through some kind of alternate dimension? Does clothing multiply like Tribbles? I ran my hand along the tops of the hangers, taking in the feel of the different fabrics against my skin. Silk and Satin.Chiffon and Lace.And why does he keep sending Oisin after clothes for me? The last dress I wore was almost a disaster.I stood back and took all of it in. It was all organized by categories. Sleepwear, casual, dinner, formal… There were more clothes here than I would wear in a year.I found a silk robe hanging with the sleep wear. I quickly undressed and slid the robe on, letting the cool fabric kiss my heated skin. I leafed through the hang

RONAN It's been almost a week since the incident at the club and we are nowhere closer to figuring out this mystery than we were the day Everleigh fell through the conference room doors. When I brought her home from the clinic I put her in one of the guest bedrooms. Whatever that asshole injected her with didn't come up on any of Rogans scans. Whatever that shit was fucked her up good. She was out for three and a half days. 'Out' is putting it very loosely. She had vivid nightmares. Rogan stayed with her the first night and she talked to him through the hell that was going on in her sleep. The second night was so bad I had to go down and get Samson from Eden.But the third night… that one almost broke me. Maksimillian stayed with her that night. She told him exactly everything they did to her in such detail that it made me sick to my stomach when I watched the video back. In all the years that I have known him, I've never se

EVERLEIGH I stood in my room looking at my reflection in the mirror of the walk in closet. Adrianna, Rowan and Gran were all fussing about with my hair and dress. The row of pearl buttons along the back were a nice touch at the time but standing here having to have help to get in and out of the dress is for the birds.Ronan and his brother's left about an hour ago to head to the venue we will be getting married at. I still can't believe that Ronan wants to make it a surprise. Surprises like this are my least favorite. They make me anxious. I like my surprises to be spontaneous, like the day Ronan took me to his ranch. A soft knock at the door had me holding my breath until my brother popped his head in. It's still surreal to think that I have a family other than Adrie and Gran."Ladies, can we have the room for a minute?" Aleksandar asked with a slight smile. Rowan and Adrianna gave me one last look over before they left the

EVERLEIGH The atrium was decorated perfectly. The decorations mirrored the park's decorations right down to my exact favorite color of coral. Ronan led me through the crowd to his waiting family. Aoife and Rowan were first to welcome me to their family, followed by his father. Ronan was off to the side talking to Rogan when strong arms grabbed me from behind and spun me in a circle before putting me back down.The action startled me to the point that I let out an involuntary shriek. The thoughts running through my head before I realized it was Rhyon, had me in fight or flight mode.When he put me down, he planted a wet, sloppy kiss directly on my mouth. To say I was shocked is an understatement. But it took everything I had not to laugh when he was chastised by all of his brothers, his father and even his mother.But I finally lost it when Rowen started poking fun at him. When she kicked off her shoes and took off running with
