Chapter 140
Isla
Waking up hungover sucks. Ugh my fucking hend.
“Rise and shine Princess!” Hunter’s unusually chipper voice blasts through my ear drums.
“Fuck off.” I mumble into my pillow.
“Cute shirt.” Kaiden smacks my arm. “We’re going to the cabin up north in a few hours, Dads orders, get up and pack.”
“Ughhhh.”
back to sleep, at least I think I am until the covers
They leave the room with a gentle click of the door, and I’m left to go b are ripped off me in a brutal yank.
“Hey!” I yell out rubbing my eyes as I sit up to find the bastard.
“Up.” Mason’s husky voice comes from the side of my bed.
I roll over onto my stomach to burry my face in the pillows, but a low moan and a breeze on my ass has me wide awake in less than a second. I look down to see I’m no longer in my dress from last night but in a large black T shirt. I bring it to my face, and it smells just like Mason. Looking at his big ass grin, I can only assume it’s his and he changed me.
“You know, in some cases people would find it highly intrusive to change a woman in her sleep.”
“Maybe.” He shrugs. “But I think we’re well
past that point now
“We were, at one point, maybe a few points, but a few asshole moments can definitely drag you back over the other side of
that line.”
“Hmm…yeah. Well, there’s nothing stopping me from trying to get myself back over that line. Your brothers give their
blessing.
“And what about my fathers? Hmm? Aren’t you worried about them?”
He shrugs again. Terrified actually, but I’ll die trying if I have to.”
I let out a long sigh and make my way to secure this alliance, right?”
make my way to the b
bathroom. “You do know my hand in marriage is the only way
our fam
family can
“They’d find another way. You don’t have to do it.”
“Maybe I want to.” I cross my arms and spin back around to him once I realise my stash is gone from under the sink. “Where’s my shit, Mason?”
“Gone. Time for you to get clean so that asshole can’t hold that shit over you.”
“You don’t get to decide that for me!” I march right up to him and poke him in his big, dumb, muscled chest. He looks down at me with his arms still crossed but a slight smile tugging at the corners of his mouth. “What are you going to do, little one? You going to punish me?”

My vagina is screaming yes, but the more logical part of me, that part that wants to protect my feelings, it says no
“No, get out.”
“Fine, but you will, eventually. I’ll make you love me. He says firmly before leaving the room.
“FUCCCKKKKKKKK!” I scream at the top of my lungs before I drop to my knees and hang my head. A whole fucking week with those three brutes hanging around and keeping their Innocent little princess caged and unharmed. I’m going to die.
I’m not sure how long I’ve been contemplating my life choices for, but it’s clearly been too long when the three musketeers themselves come barreling back in and staring down at me in my pitiful ball on the floor.
“Ugh, this is going to be a long week. Kaiden sighs.
Hunter starts rummaging through my wardrobe and throws a pair of pants at me. “Come on, we have a surprise waiting downstairs. I reluctantly grab them and make my way to the bathroom to get changed and become somewhat approachable. By the time I’m done, they’ve got a bag of my stuff and are pulling me downstairs.
“Hi m
mom, bye mom!” I say as we speed past her in the dining room.
“Bye babies! Have a
a good time! and call me!” She yells back, laughing at my distress.
The front doors open and a little ball of sunshine comes hurtling towards me.
“Mia!” I scream, wrapping my arms around her. “What are you doing here?!”
“Apparently I’m invited to keep you company in your isolation vacation!”
“Fuck yeah!!!!” I scream, throwing a fist in the air and then leaning in to whisper in her ear. “Did you bring any shit? Apparently, mine has been confiscated.”
“Of course I did.” She whispers back and winks. “Come on, I’ve got brunch in the car.
We all load into the Jeep, Hunter driving, Kaiden in the passenger and Mason, Mia and I in the back, obviously I’m shoved
into the middle seat.
“Buckle up kids!” Hunter barks.
I roll my eyes. “We’re all the same age as
as you, dickhead.”
“Yeah, well if I’m in the driver’s seat, I’m Daddy.”
“Yuck!” I gag and in the corner of my eye I see Mia has gone bright red. The fuck?
“You want a croissant?” She hands me a bag.
“Yes, but I also o want to discuss what the hell is wrong with your face.”
She only goes brighter.
“Weirdo.” I mutter at her as I bite into the flakey goodness. Only 10 hours to go. Yay… cue eye roll.

Chapter 140
Mason
A few hours into the trip and Isla was nodding off. It’s probably the first time in a long time she’s gone without any substance in her system so being tired is a very obvious side effect. Her head unconsciously leant on my shoulder and after a quick check to see that her brothers weren’t looking, I wrapped my arm around her and leant back in the seat so she could be a little more comfortable on my chest. It’s the most wholesome feeling in the world. The girl of my dreams. sleeping on me, trusting me, even though she doesn’t realise It. I’ll bask in the feeling while I can, because I’m pretty sure when she wakes up, she’s going to hate my guts again. Even if what Mia sald is true. I hurt her. She felt something for me, and I hurt her, but that won’t stop me from grovelling the whole week In hopes that she won’t choose Mr Power and Money over me,
