Finally, Vito’s lips twitch and he pushes a few curls away from my face. “Did you want to finish the movie?”
CHAPTER FOURTEEN: WINTER
The cousins from New York are here.
I’m not quite sure what that means but the different reactions from everyone has been distinct.
For starters, Maximo is the only one excited. He’s planned a whole party and everything, which is surprising because I’ve never seen a party being thrown at the compound, but Maximo has made it clear that it’s going to be the party of maybe the century.
The Damones.
The Iron Skulls MC.
A bunch of other people I’ve never heard of.
He says they’re all invited and that he already has the party favors lined up.
Vito had been walking in the room when Maximo said the last line and the frown on his face had been instant. The soft and easy Vito from our fuck long gone. He’d told Maximo to calm down and that the cousins were here on business. Of course Maximo didn’t want to hear that, saying it's a family reunion and Vito is just jealous because he isn’t family.
Giovanni had been quick to correct him, because Vitoisfamily. His words still hadn’t stopped the two from arguing. Giovanni hadn’t had time to continue to debate with them, leaving the room instead. So I couldn’t quite get a feel for how he felt about these cousins, so I decided to put him in the category of neutral.
Lucia seems to be on the same side as Vito for once: unhappy. She’d been swearing in Italian and she’s been intense for the last two days as we wait for the arrival of the cousins.
Enzo seems to be just as lost as I am.
Amadeo, for what it’s worth, is being his usual grumpy self. When I asked if he was going to get in on the party, I thought he was going to take my head right off.
But today is finally the day that the cousins are arriving and I can’t help the nerves of anticipation that move through me.
Every Costa that I’ve met have been fucked up from their very core, with Lucia being maybe the closest to sane. And I mean she kills people for a living, so that’s saying a lot.
I’d asked her about the cousins, but for once she’d shut me down, refusing to answer my question.
Maximo is the one picking them up.
There’s a bunch of other people already bustling around the house, preparing for the party. Someone is outside grilling while another person has been storing alcohol in the kitchen. I’d almost gotten drunk just from looking at the wide assortment.
Moving around the house, I take in the comfort of my outfit. A black bikini with a matching cover up that hides the bikini. My flip flops are just as comfy.
I move into the kitchen, grabbing a strawberry off of the fruit platter that Donna is preparing. Instead of reprimanding me, she offers me a smile.
“How are you doing today, Ms. Chastine?”
“Great,” I tell her, grabbing another strawberry and giving her a wink.
I’m not lying. I really do feel good today and I know a part of it is from being well fucked. Not to mention no one has bothered me or tried to ruin my high. Not even Giovanni who seems to somehow always keep track of my orgasms, just so he can bring me down from the high that I receive from them.
But not this time.
I’m sure he know about me fucking Vito, but he hasn’t said a single word.
It’s a little worrying, because I feel like he has to be plotting something.
Either way, I take the small reprieve while I can.
A couple of servers who are helping for today move into the kitchen and I take that as my cue to leave the room.
Just as I step out the door, a loud pop moves through the air.
