Blackstone Inc. (Book 2)

Part 52

"My brother, Cyrus," Prestons dad pointed to a man that looked identical to him to which the man gave a slight wave and a warm smile.

"Pleasure to meet the lucky lady who's finally taken my most stubborn nephew off the market; even if it but for a moment," he got up and took my hand in his before placing a kiss to my knuckles.

I tried not to put too much thought into that 'but for a moment' comment, "You as well, Sir."

"Cyrus' boys, Sinjin and Casanova," Prestons dad pointed to a pair of twins sitting on the loveseat. They took their attention away from their phones at the sound of their names and smirked when they looked up at us.

"Please, call me Sin," one of them stood up and took the hand his father had before resting his lips on the back for a moment.

"You are a delectable little flower, Daisy," he whispered as he turned my hand over and kissed my wrist.

I cleared my throat as a blush spread across my cheeks, "Thank you, Sin."

I couldn't help but admire him. He looked young, maybe in his mid 20′s, but he had a devious nature about him. I thought that maybe the name 'Sin' was correct for him as I tried not to get lost in those familiar but unfamiliar amber eyes.

He was pushed away by his brother, "And please call me Cas as Casanova is terribly long and has a negative connotation," he cut his eyes to his father and then looked back at me, "I look forward to getting to know you better, precious Daisy."

Cas looked more boyish than Sin, but I knew from the way his voice dropped low and the smirk that played on his lips that he was up to no good as well.

I felt a pair of arms come around my waist, "That won't be necessary, Cas. I couldn't see why you would need to get to know my girlfriend. You either, Sin."

They both took their seats again but gave us an innocent smile, "What? We didn't mean any harm. We wouldn't dare dream of hurting a delicate little pedal on her delicate little body," Sin said in a low voice as his eyes roamed my figure.

"Mmhmm, I can surely see the commitment to that," Preston said and I could practically hear his eyes roll, "Unfortunately, your word means nothing when it comes to Daisy. Stay away from her or I'll take a trip down memory lane to a particular holiday two years ago."

The brothers smirked but slightly raised their hands in surrender, "We're older, wiser, and fitter now than we were then. Wouldn't want you to hurt yourself, old man," Cas said.

"Only thing that'll be hurting is you," Preston challenged, mischief heavy in his voice.

I couldn't help but chuckle as I turned to look at Preston's dad and saw that he had an amused look on his face before turning expressionless again, "You most likely know Dominic," he pointed.

I nodded to Dominic and cut my eyes to the door before looking back at him. One of his eyebrows raised so I cut my eyes to the door again and he nodded. Hopefully, he understood that I meant that after the initial introductions I needed some time with him.

"We've met, but it's nice to see you again, Daisy," he stood up from the chair he was sat in and took my hand in his before dropping his voice in a whisper, "I look forward to speaking with you...about your adventure."

I could hardly register the pause in his sentence but it was there. He understood what I wanted.

"You as well. There is...quite a bit to discuss," I kept my voice guarded but light so as not to bring attention to the double meaning of the conversation.

He nodded but moved back to his chair and went back to staring at the tv.

Silas pointed to another man, "And that is--"
