Chapter Thirty-Six
Mia
“Nick,I didn’t know anything. I’m so sorry. I didn’t know. I didn’t know,” I shake my head and allow the fresh bout of tears to take me.
I’ve been through so damn much.
Too damn much but what is on my mind is him.
The minute I saw him I knew I had to say something. I knew no matter what happened to me or what would happen next I had to say something.
Nick is looking at me dumbfounded and I don’t know what to think other than he can’t love me anymore.
The situation that brought us together is the same that looks like it will tear us apart.
Next to me is Antonella, dead in a pool of blood.
He’s dead and it feels like redemption to me. As I look at him I’m not sure if I should be grateful again.
His mouth was all over me. I’m supposed to be grateful he preferred to tastes me everywhere for hours to get me good and ready like he said before he could fuck me and pass me around to his friends.
That was what was going to happen to me.
So I’m supposed to be grateful he’s dead.
Nick killed him only to get a bomb dropped on him about Carter.
“Just leave me.” I speak the words , not looking at him. I can’t.
I’m shocked when I feel warm fingers on my cheek. My cheek that’s on fire from the amount of times I’ve been hit.
Through my swollen eyes I look at Nick and he shakes his head.
“No,” he mutters.
“My brother shot Tommy.”
“Tommy is dead, and I won’t lose you too.”
I suck in a sharp breath. Tommy died… I feel so much worse. Nick went to the hospital today. Is that what happened?
“He died?” I can barely say the words. saying it is just as bad as looking at him and feeling the guild sweep through me.
“He died.”
“My brother killed Tommy,” I gasp, covering my mouth. The chains clink against my wrists. Chains… It’s so unlike what we did together the other night.
“My brother killed your friend.” I can’t stop saying it.
“Jesus… this is so fucked up,” shouts Carter’s voice. It carries across the room and Nick rises to his feet when he comes into view.
Carter’s carrying a gun and holding it at Nick.
“Sis, you had to go rat on me. Come on now. It’s just like you though. Miss goody two Harvard.” Carter laughs and points the gun between Nick and me. “You must know about that right. You been fucking around with my sister. You must know she went to Harvard. She’s a nerd. Didn’t think mobsters would go for nerds.”
Nick doesn’t say anything. He doesn’t pull his gun either. That doesn’t mean he won’t end Carter.
It doesn’t mean that.
