Sinfully in love

Perez

Meanwhile (Hayley and Donato)

POV: Hayley

It has been some hours since we reached the mansion. Donato didn't say a word on our way back, he didn't say anything during dinner and he didn't say anything after it. He just went back to his room without uttering a word. 

Anyone might think that I am weirded out or a little affected by that man grabbing me like that but I truly am not. In that particular moment, call me crazy but I didn't feel any fear. Maybe because I have faced life threats before or maybe because Donato was right in front of me. 

I do not know honestly. I went back to my room soon after Donato left the dining. It was now almost 1:40 am. I couldn't sleep. I even tried calling Jewel to pass time but she just didn't pick up. I guess Hunter is indeed keeping her busy. 

I decided to go to the garden for a walk. When I got downstairs, I saw his study's light on. I knew he was not sleeping, he looked so tense and pissed. I hate my mind for the thought but now I wanted to go talk to him, for some reason. 

I mean...what better way to pass time than to talk with an angry person? I went to his study and didn't bother to knock. I opened the door and stood there, watching as he kept shouting on his phone. I didn't understand a word as he spoke in his language. 

I just waited for his call to end and sat down near the table. He finally put his phone down, more like smacked it on the table. "Nice way to put it down." 

"Get out." He said, scratching his head while looking through some pages. I stood up and took a look at the sheets. They were profiles, profiles of two people. 

"This one is dead, Santiago right?"  He nodded a yes in response. "Who is this other man?" 

"Get out, Hayley. I don't have time to explain shit right now."

"Can you put the ego aside and just say what it is?"

"It's not about fucking ego! A million-dollar shipment is stolen. One of my ex-gang members tried to kill one of my people and there is another one still roaming free."

"Donato, shouting won't help right now."

"Fucking please!" He shouted again and slid off a small table lamp from the table. It broke into pieces and he sat down on his chair. 

"Who is this other guy?" I asked again, more calmly this time. He let out a sigh and passed me another file. 

"His name is Dario. He used to be my left hand, Hunter's partner."

"And why did you kick him out?" He eye-rolled and turned his back to me, typing away on his phone.

"Because he tried to shoot me." I looked up at him with a little shock. 

"Why?"

"Too many questions."

"Just answer." 

"I slept with the girl he wanted to date."

POV: Donato

And there it was. That awkward feeling in me. I didn't want to tell her that. Now she will be disgusted in me. 

"Great." She gave a big sarcastic smile and put the file down. "What else did you do?" She said, scoffing. 

"Shut up. I didn't know he wanted to date her, and she slept with me too." She eye-rolled and sat down beside me.

"Then?" 
"Then nothing else, Hayley. He tried to kill me, I threw him out."
"What to do now?"

"That is not for you to know and talk about." I eye-rolled and she stood up, walking closer to me. She put a paper on the table.
