~Vixen~
As I drove home from the club, I had every intention to drive the opposite way and avoid all the problems that lie for me at home.
But I wasn't a coward and I needed to face the problems like the bad bitch that I am.
Why did Nicholas have to come now of all times? I thought we were ancient history; never to be discussed again.
I needed to figure out why Nonno sent him here in the first place. I also needed to find Valerio and ask him about his interaction with Nicholas earlier. Just what I fucking needed—a drama-filled love triangle right now.
Love triangle? God Vixen do you even hear yourself?
I'm not in love with either men—zero feeling. My girl downstairs has a mind of her own but for me myself...not even a wee bit interested in them.
'Riiiigght. Keep telling yourself that Vix, that'll make it more believable.' I mentally scoff at myself and pulled into my driveway. I entered my code in and the guards did a quick sweep of my car before letting me in.
After what happened to Mia, I hired and doubled a professional ex-military security team. Worth every penny if it lets her sleep peacefully at night. I didn't want to risk any complications with our living arrangements.
She and Elliot have been staying together since she arrived back from the hospital. I am nowhere near figuring out a permanent living situation with the Lunas and as much as I like to keep an eye on them, I wish I didn't have to be around Valerio.
I don't know why I have such a strong pull towards him, when I'm next to him my mind just goes blank and all I can think about is his hands and tongue on me.
You weak bitch. I hate myself for not being able to control my urges. Now throw in fucking Nicholas Romano into the mix and now I feel like I need to wear a fucking chastity belt and throw the key away.
I park my car and give myself five minutes before I endure the shit storm that awaits in my house. I take a few deep breaths and click on an old voicemail that River had left me a few months ago. It was a typical voice message about needing me to call him back and that he missed and loved me.
My heart sank but the sound of his voice weirdly cleared my head. I needed to keep my focus and keep my head on task. My main priority was to avenge my brother's death and keep my head afloat with all this messy business.
I climb out and strut inside the house. Rex stood outside my office door, waiting for me. I could hear chatter outside the foyer in the living room. I open my door and make my way to the desk.
"Have you spoken to Isabella?" I place my gun on the table and slump into the seat.
"She said the girls' goons are pretty pissed but they left without making a scene. They said they'd be in contact with her soon." Rex informed as he sat down in the chair in front of me.
