Having Her

Chapter 34

Lucian's POV:

Arriving back at home, we say our goodbyes and I get the kids into the house.

"Lucy, you go home to Larry and don't say a single word of what you heard today. Do I make myself clear?" I say, she nods in understanding and makes her way across the yard.

I kiss Winter goodnight and send her off to bed, and I bring Luciano with me to discuss this meeting my dad wants with Jack. Part of me still doesn't believe it, Kathy is back and our dad is alive. They want us to move to Spain. It's just a lot to process, and did I mention I have a headache?

These are the days when I wish I just had a regular fucking life. One that involves only me, Winter, and Luciano. Don't get me wrong, I love Lucy, but she has a dad, and that shithead has Candace to care for her.

"Jack, I need a word with you. Details involving the dinner proved to be a life changing fucking event." I say, walking into his room taking a seat with Luciano in tow.

"Yeah, sure kid. What's up?" I sigh, trying to find the right fucking words to explain what the fuck happened today.

"I'll cut to the chase, Kathy is back and my dad is alive. He requests an audience with you in regards to my position as an enforcer. Also wants to move us and Winter to Spain." He instantly looks intrigued and sits up a bit.

"Wow, fucking aye. Kathy, that sly fucking bitch. I'll grant him an audience. As for Spain, honestly kid family is everything but Winter fucking exhausts me. I have an operation to run and she's more trouble than she's worth, no offense. I didn't sign up to be a father, my life is already complicated enough. With Candace gone, Winter holds me back." He says, shrugging like it's not a big deal.

My heart just fucking broke. The more Jack speaks, the more tense I feel Luciano behind me. As the older brother, I am always more level headed about these kinds of things. So Luciano is the one who is unpredictable with his temper, especially when it concerns our little birdie. She's been through enough, and he's sitting here with a smug look on his face almost pushing her out of the door. She can say she doesn't care, but Jack is her brother. He was there to defend her when her dad hurt her so I don't know how she would take this. And her state of mind makes it all the more concerning. What if she acts irrational and does something she'll probably regret? Although, that's fucking laughable, I doubt she'd regret anything. If I'm honest my little lioness is a sociopath and probably could care less.

I run my hair through my hair, sighing. "Okay, I'll talk to him tomorrow and get back to you. I'm exhausted and we have training in the morning." Me and Luciano excuse ourselves and make our way upstairs to cuddle our little birdie.
