“Fucking dog. What are you trying to say?”

He answers me with a laugh then starts coughing and spits blood. He looks like he’s on his last. “You were fucking the rat’s daughter all along. Never knew her old man was working both sides and playing you, stringing you along like mice like the vermin you are.”

My damn mouth actually falls open as shock suffuses me.

Mimi’s father.

Him?

Joey Cipriani.

No…

No way..

“Joey Cipriani!” I bellow. I snap my gaze to Pa then Vincent who looks equally shocked.

“Idiot. Maybe you should go back to fucking around at your little sex club.” He starts to laugh again as I tense. “You’re all a fucking joke. A joke to the Sicilian mafia. You think you have everything figured out coming here. Come for me with your best men, and leave your prized possessions and all that you hold dear with little protection so our rat can lead us right in to take what we want.”

My stomach twists into knots tighter than a macramé. I stare at Diego, feeling like I’m going to pop a vessel.

“What are you talking about,” I demand.

“Your women and children.” He howls with laughter. “You think Gabe is enough to take down an army of us? He’s good but he’s not that good.”

Jesus, they’ve gone to the house!

They’ve gone to the fucking house.

I step forward and knock his face in with the back of my gun.

“You fucking asshole. You were playing with us.”

“Your women will be more pussy to pass around.” He laughs out loud.

I end his sorry ass before he can say another word. He has nothing more I want to hear. I fire the gun and the bullet blasts between his eyes. Vincent drops him and growls like a beast. The same beast that’s raging in me.

“I’ll call Ma, you call Gabe,” he says.

“I’m calling Mia,” Nick shouts.

I grab my phone and dial Gabe’s number.

There’s no answer. It just rings out to voicemail.

I call again and the same thing happens. He’d have his phone on him. I know he would and it works in the safe room.

My heart races and my lungs tighten then tingle.

I dare not think the worst.

I can’t.

Gabe’s not answering his phone and the Fontaines have gone to the house where our women and children are.

Mimi’s father…

Joey.
