Keela (Slater Brothers #2.5)(6)

Alec smiled and shook his head.

I growled, “I hate your brother for makin' you do this.”

Alec laughed and leaned his face down to mine. “I'm not Dominic's biggest fan right now either, Kitten, but a deal is a deal.”

I grumbled, “Stupid fuckin' bets.”

I loathed bets, and for good reason too.

The last time I was involved in a bet my life exploded into a very bad Irish version of The Godfather.

Alec chuckled again, pecked my lips and hugged me to him. “I'll get a short buzz cut on the sides of my head then leave the hair long enough on top that you can still knot your fingers in it. It will meet the terms of the bet since Dominic never said I had to get a full buzz cut, he said just a buzz cut. I'll pick up the truck then get it done, okay?”

Nice.

I snickered, “It's not me you should be tryin' to accommodate. You know Aideen loves your hair, she does be delighted when you let her style and plait it. You're her very own human Ken doll.”

Alec smiled. “I let her do that just because she likes it and it keeps her quiet... besides, it will be long enough that she can still play around with it. I'll explain it to her.”

An explanation? Ha.

That wouldn't be good enough for Aideen Collins.

I harshly chewed on my inner cheek. “She may kill Nico for this.”

Alec grinned. “I'm fine with him getting roughed up a bit.”

“I didn't say he would get roughed up a bit, I said she may kill him.”

Alec snickered. “I'll talk about it with her.”

I nodded my head. “Good, because I'm sure as hell not settin' foot in that death trap.”

Alec raised his eyebrows. “You'd let me step foot in it though?”

Hell to the yes.

“Mate, when Aideen and her temper is involved in a situation, I'll throw you head first into any trap she sets. You best believe that.”

Alec stared at me with wide, shocked eyes then tackled me back on our bed. I screamed with laughter and playfully struggled when he pinned me beneath him. He leaned his face down to mine and I giggled when the ends of his hair tickled my face.

“I'm going to miss your hair,” I said for the umpteenth time since he told me last week that he had to cut his hair.

Alec lovingly kissed my nose. “It'll grow back.”

“I know, but still,” I murmured and lifted my hands to his head and ran my fingers through his hair.

Alec chuckled when I stuck my bottom lip out and pouted.

“It's only hair, baby.”

To him, maybe.

I shrugged my shoulders. “I've never seen you with short hair... I may find you ugly.”

Alec applied a large amount of his weight down on me when he started to laugh.

“Crushin' me,” I rasped and slapped Alec's back because my chest started to burn from lack of oxygen.

Alec continued to laugh as he leaned up off me. He brushed his nose against mine again then pecked my lips before he stood up off me completely.

“C'mon, up you get,” he chirped.

This again?

I groaned. “You suck!”

Alec looked down at me when I stood up from the bed in front of him.

“You do the sucking in this relationship, sweetheart.” He grinned, wickedly.

I narrowed my teasing eyes. “And you do the kissin'... arse kissin'.”

Literally and figuratively.

Alec winked. “Only when I'm naughty.”

I grunted then smiled when he tickled the side of my mouth with his finger.

I hated when he did that.

I snapped my teeth at him making him retract his fingers to a safe distance away from my choppers. I grinned as I turned around and made a move to grab my duvet so I could shake it out and make my bed, only to find I couldn't because Storm was lying on top of it.

I didn't even hear him come in.

“Hello, my baby boy,” I cooed.

Alec gasped from behind me. “How does he fucking do that?”

I smiled as I leaned over and scratched behind Storm's ears. “Because he is a cool dog.”

“This is not funny, he doesn't make a fucking sound... it's not right, not right at all!”

I grinned. “I told you,” I said as I turned around to face Alec again. “He is a ninja dog.”

Alec huffed and leaned to the right and lifted his hand to his face, pointed two fingers at his eyes then pointed the same two fingers at Storm. “I'm watching you, big man.”

Storm farted in response.

I burst out laughing then fled the room before the death like smell filled my nose.

“Damn dog,” Alec muttered as he quickly followed me out of the room, and down the hallway. “In the new house he isn't staying inside, he will learn to sleep outside in the backyard in his dog house.”

Yeah, like that would ever happen.

“Alec, there is a better chance of you sleeping in the dog house than Storm sleeping out there.”

Alec muttered something to himself as he passed me and entered the kitchen.

“What was that?” I asked, smiling as I followed.

He glanced at me. “I said I wouldn't be surprised.”

I cackled, “Good, because he is me baby. He was here before you were, big lad—don't forget that.”

Alec looked at me and deadpanned, “How can I forget? When he is in the room and I even attempt to cop a feel he comes over and pushes his way between us. In dog speak, he tells me to back the fuck off his mama.”

I burst out laughing.

“That's so true,” I beamed.

Alec's lip quirked before he shook his head and looked down to the kitchen drawers. “Are you eating and then packing or packing then eating?”

Was that a serious question?

“Eatin' first... duh,” I replied.

Alec blew out an extra amount of air from his nose as he smiled. “Sit down then, I'll make you something.”

I shook my head. “Thanks for the offer, but I'm just goin' to have some yogurt and fruit.”

Alec raised an eyebrow. “Why?”

I deadpanned, “I've been talkin' the past week about dietin'.”

Did he listen to anything I say?

Alec glanced down at my body then back up to my head. “It's working, you look great.”

He was so full of it.
