Dante's POV

Rose acted kind of strange, a few blocks away I noticed her handbag still under the seat. She must've forgotten it and will be looking for it.

I made a u-turn in the middle of the road causing cars to hoot at me and one driver even showed me his middle finger.

I drove to the coffee shop which I saw her head into. I parked my car across the road and crossed the street scanning through the shop. I finally saw her ruby red hair on the far end of the shop and made fast work to get through the crowd.

She was talking to a bald man she kind of looked upset. I wonder who that can be that's not Quinn.

"Rose you forgot to take you..."

By the sound of my voice, she jumped out of her chair almost knocking over the table.

The bald man turned around to see what had gotten her so frightened. His eyes were spread wide when he saw me standing behind her.

I let Rose's bag slip through my fingers looking at him then back to her.

"What you doing here with this man?" I asked in a voice I hardly recognized. 

When she didn't answer me all my anger went through the roof.

"Rose what the hell are you doing with this man!" I screamed at her out of anger.

"Dante this is my stepfather... Arthur McQueen."

"Your what..."

The word stepfather echoed in the back of my head. It's like everything in front of me turned red. Anger filled me at the sight of seeing her with this man who nearly destroyed everything my father has worked so hard for.

Grabbing him by the throat I look at her with anger-filled eyes. She looked surprised by my actions.

"You send your filthy daughter after me to try and seduce me!" I yelled at the man punching him in the face.

"No! What are you saying?" she cried.

"Stop with your acting you've been caught red-handed. Now it starts to all make sense... Everything was a lie... you never loved me no wonder you were acting so weird. One moment you were in love with me and the next you didn't want me near you. I should've expected this."

Laughing at myself I can't contain my anger anymore.

"I should've known it was too good to be true. No one can love so easily! What a fool I was!"

Out of anger, I punched him in the face again and again. Not caring that people were starring at me I was screaming furiously at the man

"You didn't have enough? My father had you get off too easy and now you used your daughter against me, you sick man! I should've killed you back then when I had the chance."

I grabbed him by his throat and held him against the table. His face was starting to turn blue and he was coughing uncontrollably.

I felt a hand pull me at my arm and I yanked the person away then I heard Rose cry out in pain and after seeing her fall against the table I backed away from Arthur. I wanted to help her to her feet but was too pissed at her to do anything.
