A Forever Family (Forever #6) Read Online Free

they don’t mean when they’re angry. Your family is so tight knit that I understand where they’re coming from.”
    “So you think the things they said were okay?” I asked as I got up from the bed.
    “No. I don’t think that at all. Give them time. I’ve gotten to know your mom and dad over the last several months and they’ll forgive us. They’re hurt right now and they feel betrayed.”
    I sighed as I stared down at her and took her hands in mine. “I know. But I don’t regret marrying you in Vegas and I never will. I love you so much.”
    “And I love you.” The corners of her mouth curved into a beautiful smile. A smile that would be forever etched into my heart and soul.
    I looked down at her as I ran my finger across her lips. “I want you so bad. You still owe me from earlier when you ruined my hard-on.”
    She grabbed my shirt and pulled me on top of her. “What are you waiting for, Mr. Black? You can have me anytime you want and I promise I won’t mention—”
    My mouth crashed into hers before she had the chance to say it. I could feel her smile against my mouth and it excited me even more. Making love to her as my wife was even better. She was mine and I was hers and no one was going to take that away from us, especially my parents.

    The alarm went off as I rolled over and put my arm around Amelia, giving her head a soft kiss as she reached over and shut it off. An uneasy feeling erupted inside of me, knowing that I’d have to face my dad today. I was still upset and I had no intention of talking to him, at least not yet. Hell, I didn’t even know if he had any intention of talking to me. I sighed as I gave Amelia a light squeeze.
    “Do we have to get out of this bed?”
    “Yep. We sure do.” She turned over, gave me a kiss, and then climbed out of bed. “I’ll start the coffee.”
    I smiled as I watched her walk away in the silk nightie I had bought her in Vegas.
    Stepping into Black Enterprises, my stomach was twisted at the thought of seeing my dad. I was in no mood and the first thing I had to do was fire Cara. When I walked up to her desk, she was sitting there on her phone. I shook my head.
    “Is he here yet?” I asked in a stern voice.
    “Nope.”
    “I need to see you in my office.” I motioned for her to go in.
    I followed behind and set my briefcase down on the chair next to my desk. I sat down and looked at her as she looked at her phone.
    “Do you think you can put your phone away for two seconds and look up at me while we have a discussion?”
    “Sure. What’s up?”
    “Things aren’t working out and we need to let you go.” I got straight to the point.
    “What’s the problem? I think I’m doing a great job.” She chomped on her gum.
    “You make consistent errors, you’re on your phone all day, you chomp your gum like some wild animal, and you sent my mother black roses.”
    “Oh.” She smiled. “Did she love them?” She was clueless.
    I sighed because I didn’t have time for her stupidity. “No, Cara, she didn’t. Who sends black roses?”
    “I thought it was cute, considering your last name is Black and all.”
    “Well, my father had a different opinion. And really? Did you just really say that?” I couldn’t believe the mentality of this girl. I am never going to live this one down with my dad.
    “Yeah. You didn’t think it was cute?”
    I rolled my eyes. “Cara, you’re fired. Please go collect your things and leave or I’ll have security escort you out.”
    “Whatever. I didn’t like working here anyway. You’re all really uptight and boring.” She got up from her seat and I followed her out, making sure she didn’t steal anything.
    She collected her things and just as she was walking down the hallway, my dad was walking to his office. It was a shit morning already and I didn’t need it to get any worse. I turned away, went into my office, and shut the door. Before I made it to my desk to sit down, the door opened.
