Chapter 2 - I Talk Too Much

~ Matteo's POV ~

"Where the hell is Angelo?" I glanced up from my laptop in front of me on my desk to see Adrian standing in the door of my office with a scowl on his face. "Yes, please do come in."

"I'm not in the mood for your sarcasm, where is he?" Letting out a sigh I leaned back in my chair.

"A hospital appointment with Carlotta, you remember how it is right?" I knew my comment would only piss him off and it probably wasn't the nicest thing to say to him considering he's not currently living with his children but his mood was really starting to irritate me.

"You're a bastard Matteo." I nodded my head in agreement which only caused him to smile. Our relationship really was weird, but it worked for us. The fact we have to work together and we live so close to each other and with me practically living in his house right now while Jordan isn't there means we need to be able to get over arguments easily. If we didn't both of us would have a lot more scars than we already do.

"I suppose you'll have to do then. I need you to come with me to see Fabio."

I rose an eyebrow at my brother, putting together the stressed expression on his face with the name he just mentioned. It now made sense. Fabio was one of the contacts we used to manage our influence in the government. He was pretty high up which meant he could do whatever we wanted. This is how we don't get arrested for all the things we do like importing firearms and drugs, selling them in Italy and of course all the murders we're responsible for.

Sure we clean our money through businesses to act legitimate and do other things like that to protect ourselves but none of these measures work unless you have support from the corrupt government officials.

"Why do I need to go? The guy is freaking annoying but you don't need me." All he did was glare at me and by the look he was giving me I knew that trying to get out of this would definitely be pushing him too far. Even as his brother I needed to know my limits and he was still the boss even if he didn't act like one with me.

"Fine."

As we made our way out of my office passing our men on the way out of the building, I checked the time on my phone to see it was almost 12pm. There was no way I was going to be late for my little meeting with Gabriella if could help it. If I even wanted a slight chance of getting laid I couldn't be late.

"What's wrong?" I glanced up at Adrian to see him looking at me just as we got to his car. "I have plans later."

"What plans?" Before I replied we both got in the car and Adrian turned the engine on.

"There's this girl. I'm trying everything to make her crack but she's just so difficult."

"You just want to sleep with her?" I shrugged my shoulders at him causing him to shake his head in response. "When are you going to learn? You need to stop this Matteo because one day it'll come back to bite you in the ass. You're too old for this now."

"I didn't ask for your opinion Adrian. You know I've tried it with some of the ones I liked and every time they were just in it for the money. I'm not making that mistake again."

"That's not it and you know it. You just can't let anything good happen for yourself, you have to destroy it first and destroy other people in the process. You're refusing to make up with mom and dad for something that happened years ago and you never even mention Mia. You're the only one who is still hanging on to all that. Whenever something good comes to you, you just push it away."
