Isabella grins. “Did we die in that helicopter and land in heaven?”For a moment, I stare at her, hardly believing this woman is my wife and I’ve got her all to myself for the week.

“Find out what you can,” Mikhail instructed. “Anything and everything she’ll tell you.”

I smile at her, hoping it doesn’t look like I’m baring my teeth. I guess I don’t smile very often.

“I’m not the kind of guy who goes to heaven when I die,” I say, shaking my head. I can’t help but smirk at her.

She takes a step toward me, her eyes smoldering. “Good,” she says in a low drawl. “Sinners have more fun, and I’ll enjoy the company.”

CHAPTER THIRTEEN

Isabella

My new husband kisses me.

I let him.

It feels good to just let everything go for a little while, to relax and enjoy this. My eyes flutter closed, and his hand comes to the back of my neck. I’m not the type of girl who surrenders easily, but knowing what we have to do and who we are—I lean into this.

When we pull away, I’m all kinds of aroused, and I’m not the only one. “You’re beautiful. There’s something crazy that lights a fire in your eyes.”

I grin at him and wink. “Takes one to know one. Now do I get the grand tour or what?”

“Let’s settle for the mini tour. I just want to find our room and put our bags away for now.”

“Yeah, I need a shower after all that.”

“Bed would be nice.”

I look around. It is fucking beautiful here. I feel like someone handed me a glossy pamphlet at a travel agency, and I stepped right into the picture. I've never seen anything like this in my life.

Granted, I've never really been on vacation before, but God, we fucking earned this.

I reach for my bag, and Lev grunts and takes it out of my hand.

I frown at him. “Dude, you don't think I can carry my own bag?"

"Isabella," he says in a growl that makes my nipples hard.

Excellent. My new husband has the ability to turn me on with his voice. I guess that's his superpower.
