  “I’m beating up a little girl…and it’s a good dream?”

  “It’s not like that,” she said quickly. “It’s because there’s this girl, I call her Panic…” She stopped when she realized she was only making herself sound like a lunatic. “It’s a good dream, really,” MJ said lamely. “I promise.”

  Helios shook his head. “I don’t know. I think this may be an effect of our lovemaking. I think it’s too soon.”

  Too soon? What the—

  They had been celibate for a year. They had made love just once last night, and now they might have to be celibate again?

  She shook her head profusely. “No, no, no, it’s not too soon.”

  “I’m just not sure, baby. You know I love you—”

  “And I love you,” she said quickly.

  “So I don’t want to do anything to frighten you. Maybe seeing my cock—”

  “I love your cock!”

  Silence.

  And then she saw Helios’ shoulders start to rock.

  MJ gasped. “Oh my God, you were totally pulling my leg again, weren’t you?”

  Smart enough not to give her an answer, a still-laughing Helios chose to kiss MJ and make love to her one more time. As he covered her lips with his, he thanked God in his mind that MJ was really back. Perhaps she was wiser beyond her years now, but it didn’t matter as long as she was the same innocent MJ he could always tease.

  Chapter Sixteen

  Kellion Argyros was leaving the wedding reception to find himself a girl to fuck for the night when he stumbled upon something extremely interesting. Through the partially open door of the kitchen, he saw a girl squatting down halfway and clasping her arms over her shoulders.

  A moment later, the guy she was talking to crowed triumphantly, “Heavy! You’re saying it’s too heavy for you to carry on your own, so you’d like me to help you with the crates?”

  The girl nodded, smiling.

  The guy gave her a thumbs up. “Sure, no problem. I’ll pack these up while you wait for Bobby to come back with the payment.”

  She gave him a thumbs up of her own.

  When the guy left, Kellion entered the kitchen and tapped the girl on the shoulder. She whirled around immediately, and his first look of her was everything he had imagined her to be. Blond, beautiful, and big-chested – she was his ideal woman all right, and fortunately for her, they wouldn’t have any trouble communicating with each other. Unlike the asshat she had been talking to earlier, he knew how to fucking sign since it was one of the consequences he had to pay when he lost a bet to Leandro Christopoulos’ manipulative fiancée.

  He signed swiftly, wanting to impress her with his speed and knowledge.

  But she only looked at him.

  Fuck. Maybe he got a few words wrong?

  He signed to her again, but still she gave him that look.

  Behind her, the door to the kitchen opened and Bobby poked her head in. “Aria?”

  The girl turned around.

  Bobby waved the check before placing it on the steel countertop next to the door. “Thanks for all the hard work for tonight. MJ wanted me to tell you that she loved everything you prepared! I have to go, there’s some fiasco with the wedding cake and I promised MJ I won’t let it anything happen to it.” Bobby paused, her gaze going to Kellion. “Umm, what are you doing here? Oh, never mind. I really have to go. Don’t flirt with her, Kellion!”

  Aria was still looking at Bobby’s departing back when behind her she heard the man say, “Well, fuck. You’re not deaf, are you?”

  She wished she could just go, but she forced herself to turn around again.

  Kellion found himself the recipient of the most serious look he had ever been subjected to in his whole life.

  Finally, in a voice so scratchy it was as if she had not spoken in years, the girl said, “No.” And then she was hurrying away, snatching the check from the counter and leaving him without looking back.

  Well, fuck, Kellion thought again. Did his heart just skip a beat at being ignored?

  The End

  Dear Reader,

  Thank you so much for sticking with Helios and MJ till the very end. I’m hoping a lot of you will be pleased to know that there are more Heart Racer books to come, but – here comes the best part – they won’t be two, three, or five-part serials! They will all be standalone books and I can’t wait to share them with all of you.

  To be honest, I started writing serials as a way of recharging myself. For those of you who have been around from the very start, you may remember that I started out writing novels. I wrote one after another and got burned out pretty quickly after that. In serials, I was still able to write and not feel like a walking zombie after each book. I only have one last serial to complete – The Art of Claiming an Alpha – and after that, it will be back to standalone stories again.

  I really hope you enjoyed Helios and MJ’s story, and if you did, it would mean so much if you could leave a review for it. Don’t forget to let me know via email, my website, or on Facebook or Twitter if you do leave a review. I’d love to personally thank you for it!

  My next newsletter will be about other upcoming books. Please don’t forget to subscribe!

  Until our next journey!

  Yours truly,

  Marian Tee
