“Where the fuck are you?” Dom demands.
“In the car.”
“With Mackenzie?”
“Yeah. We’ve had to dump her mom’s car, ’cause she really shouldn’t be driving, but it was a wreck anyway, so I don’t think anyone is going to complain.”
Dom doesn’t seem the slightest bit placated. “You were there the entire fucking night. Did you screw with the app so we couldn’t find you?”
“Me?” Tino says all mock innocence. “I’d never do such a thing. Why would I?”
“Because you’re an asshole.” Dom is pacing now. “Is she okay?”
“Yes.”
“Are you on your way back?”
“Yes, but we’ll still be an hour or so. We set off early.”
“Why not last night?” I ask. Dom is right; Tino is fucking us around.
“Mack was tired, weren’t you, darling?”
In the background, Mackenzie giggles. I grit my teeth. What the hell were they up to all night alone in that room? As if I even have to ask.
“It’s not cool to keep your toys all to yourself, Tino,” I remind him.
“There’s shit you need to know,” Dom says. “Important shit. Both of you. Get back here. Oh, and Duchess?”
Her voice is all happiness and sunshine. “Yes?”
“You’re in so much fucking trouble.” Dom hangs up the call and throws his phone at the wall with a curse.
“He spent the night fucking her. I can tell.” Dom turns to me, his eyes blazing. “She could be in danger, and he fucked her.”
“He has a gun, no?”
“So?”
“He knows how to use it. They are on their way back, and they are safe.”
I have bigger things to worry about now I know she is safe. I don’t care if Tino fucked her. In fact, I’d like to take a look at her well-used holes when she gets back here and maybe go down on her and taste her. I hope she hasn’t showered.
“It’s wrong. It’s supposed to be the three of us with her,” Dom says angrily.
He’s just pissed because he thinks he’s the leader. He’s only the leader because we let him be. For a moment, I watch Dom contemplatively and wonder if I should take out some of my pent-up stress on him. Maybe a few rounds in the training ring?
“We should head to the gym for an hour while we wait for them to get back,” I suggest.
Dom’s mouth pinches, but then he nods. “I could do with punching the shit out of something.”
“I’ll meet you down there.”
Dom returns to his room, and I grab my gym gear and change then meet him in the gym. We spend the next hour sparring. I go easy on him, aware he’s on the edge. He knows I’m a better fighter than he is, though he’d never admit it out loud. All the feel-good endorphins from the exercise will help, but it still doesn’t solve any of our problems, especially not mine. Dom is jealous that Tino spent the night with Mackenzie—but then maybe so am I. The problem with my father overshadows all of that.
When we’re done, we shower and change, and head back to my room. I realize I left the box of watches still sitting on the bed. I struggle to imagine anyone would steal from me, but it was still a stupid thing to do.
The sound of heavy boots on the stairs has me rushing past Dom to the door, which is slightly ajar. I open it and stick my head out.
