Branded as Trouble (Rough Riders #6)(69)

“I was really surprised Sky and Kade jumped on the McKay family ‘let’s have a kid every other year’ bandwagon that our other McKay cousins are on.” Chassie cocked her head. “Was that beep a signal the coffee is done?”


“Oh sure. Sorry, I’m not much of a hostess.” She smiled sheepishly. “Then again, this isn’t my house.”


“Then again, isn’t most of the décor in this place your doing?”


Chassie asked.


“Yes. I didn’t want such a beautiful house to be a typical bachelor pad. Luckily, Colt has great taste.” India grabbed two mugs and moved on the other side of the counter. As she poured, she said, “Anyway, I think Sky and Kade decided if they were going to have more kids, they should do it sooner rather than later. They just didn’t bank on twins.”


“And twin girls to boot. If I decide to go through this again, I hope we have a girl.”


Chassie sighed. “We still have three months before we have to decide on a name, which is a good thing.”


India spun her cup on the counter, biting her tongue because the question she wanted to ask was wildly inappropriate.


“I know tattooing me and Trev and Ed doesn’t mean we know each other very well, even if Colt talks about you all the damn time—”


“Really? He talks about me?”


“Constantly, but just ask me whatever’s on your mind, India.”


“Are you talking about what first name you’re gonna give the baby, or the last name?”


“First name. The baby’s last name will be Glanzer, like ours.”


“Ours?” India frowned. “But don’t you guys have two names?”


“Not any more. Earlier this year, when Trev, Edgard and I celebrated our first…anniversary together, Ed legally changed his last name to Glanzer.”


“Why?”


“Mancuso was his stepfather’s last name. Since he’s broken all ties with his family in Brazil, and he has no living relatives here in the US…it just seemed right he have our name since he’s a part of us.”


“That makes sense.”


“Plus, as a bonus, Trevor knew it’d piss his dad off.” She winked. “So enough about me, tell me about you and Colt. When did you and my cousin start…”



“Start dating? Two weeks ago.”


Silence.


Chassie sighed. “I just bared my soul and that’s all I get?”


“Yes, ’cause Indy ain’t the kiss-and-tell type like some people I know.” Colt set his hands on India’s shoulders and leaned in, mock whispering, “Although, there is plenty to tell after last night, huh?”


He kissed down the side of her neck. “Mmm. Mornin’, sugar.”


Goose bumps broke out in the wake of his warm kisses and sweet words. She closed her eyes and sank into him. “Morning.”


“Thanks for makin’ coffee.”


“Like I had a choice.”


She felt him grin against her cheek. “Is that a complaint?”


“No. Hell no.”


His smile widened, if anything. “Good to know.”


“But I am going to insist on no more betting today.”


“You’re the one who always starts it.”
