Chapter 0494 Shaking myself, | push those thoughts back. “I don’t know. He says it's a surprise.” “I love surprises!” she screams.
“That makes one of us,” | mumble. “Let's just go.” Lilly carefully puts her book down before jumping down from her bed. She takes my hand and pulls me from her room. We find Gabriel waiting for us by the door, his legs crossed at the ankles while his hands are folded across his broad chest.
He is wearing a black V-neck t-shirt that hugs his shoulder like a second skin. His thick thighs are encased in a Calvin Klein pair of jeans. There is something about him in that pose that makes him more attractive.
“Like what you see?” Gabriel teases with a smirk, his words pulling me from my thoughts.

Lilly makes a clicking sound that reminds me that she's present. “I know daddy is good- looking, but you two are disgusting.” “Wait till you grow up and meet the man that makes your heart race,” | tease her, pinching her cheeks softly. “Every time you look at him dreamily, I'll remind you of this day.” The air around us changes.
“She's not dating anyone until she’s eighty,” Gabriel growls, all traces of fun and games completely gone.
| | fold my hands across my chest and mimic him. “She'll probably start dating when she’s around sixteen or seventeen.” | “Not gonna happen,” l'ignore his chilly tone and continue riling him up.
“She'll robably have her first kiss in middle school,” I continue. “I had my first when | was twelve.”
“I'll blow their faces if they so much bring their disgusting disease-filled little lips near her,” he hisses, the sound so terrifying.
This time, | can’t stop the laughter that bubbles from deep inside me. Gabriel looked like he was going to have a heart attack just from the thought of Lilly dating.
| would have added other things, like the fact that she might lose her virginity way before she joins college, but | stopped myself. She doesn’t know about sex yet, and that is not something I'm willing to talk to her about until she’s older. Old enough to understand.
Plus, that would probably push Gabriel over the edge. | can honestly see him locking her up and scaring any boy within a mile radius of our daughter.
I've thought a lot about how I'll approach the birds and bees talk. Honestly, I'll just tell her like it is and when she’s old enough, I'll give her options. It's not that I'll be encouraging her to have sex, but | honestly feel giving her safe option is better than her ending up as a

“Hold you horses, guys,” Lilly's voice pulls me from my thoughts. “I'm not going to get a boyfriend any time soon. | want to be a boss and run a company one day. | can't focus on that if | am busy chasing stupid boys.” | | “That's my girl!” Gabriel shouts, then pulls her into his arms and pecks her grinning cheeks. “ Boys are stupid. Money isn't.” | just shake my head at the duo and start for the door. They follow me and soon we are on the road.
The whole ride is filled with chatter. Mainly from Lilly. Sometimes she scares me with how super focused she is. | don't want her to be just another cold businesswoman who thinks about nothing else but work and making money.
~~ Sure, | want her to achieve her dreams. | want herto succeed in life, but | also want her to find love. | want her to have the warmth of a loving and doting husband and children.
She reminds me so much of Gabriel and that scares me because the Gabriel | knew before was nothing but cold and ruthless.
“We are here,” Gabriel announces | look outside to find we were in front of a huge mansion.
“What is this, Gabriel?” | ask, getting out and staring at the majestic house.
“This is what I'm hoping will be our home,” he answers, making my heart skip at the wishfulness in his tone.
