Leo shrugs his shoulders as he passes me my drink.
“Everything okay? You look like someone stole your favorite toy.”
“Drama. You know what whores are like.” I huff and run my fingers through my hair.
“Jade?” he questions.
I nod and raise my drink to my lips, draining half of it.
The sound of a baby elephant coming down the stairs has me looking up and frowning.
Beatrice is storming toward us with fire in her eyes.
I wonder what Leo has done to piss her off so much?
Only it’s me she’s stalking toward. She knocks my drink from my hand screaming at me. “How could you?”
What the fuck is wrong with her? I just stare at her, trying to figure out what’s changed since I had dinner with them before I left for Philadelphia.
“You know the rules, do you not? How fucking dare you. Get out of my house, now. You’re not welcome here,” she screams as she pushes me in the chest.
Leo takes his little hellion in his arms and tries to soothe her, asking a question we’d both like the answer to.
“Alessandro, what the fuck is going on?” he growls without looking at me.
“How that fuck am I supposed to know? You need to keep your bitch on a leash.” I blow out a breath and rub my hand down my face.
Before I can work out what is going on, I’m slammed to the floor and Leo has his knife at my throat.
What the fuck is going on?
“What the fuck are you doing, Leo!” I hiss.
“Insult my wife again, Alessandro, and I swear to you, your father will be without an heir. Now show her the respect she deserves,” he grunts.
“STOP,” a high-pitched voice screams.
Leo eases his knife from my throat and looks up. I look around him, and I’m shocked to see Cam shaking in Beatrice’s arms.
Oh fuck, she’s told Beatrice we fucked.
“Cam?” I croak, my throat still tight from the pressure Leo applied with his knife.
Leo jumps off me and storms toward Beatrice and Cam. Beatrice steps in front of Cam in a protective gesture.
I managed to get to my feet as Leo turns to glare at me.
“Will someone tell me what the fuck is going on?” Leo growls.
“Yes, Alessandro, feel free to tell us what you were thinking. I’m sure my uncle would also love to hear this too.”
Both Cam and I flinch at the mention of Dante.
Leo is storming toward me as he growls, “Tell me you didn’t?”
“Please stop,” Cam cries as she runs toward us but carries on past us and starts heaving into the sink.
Fuck, what’s wrong with her?
