Giorgio frowned. “Siding? Like, for house? I do not understand. This man, he is mark.”

Gage let up. “Pozza, is Isaac a mark, or did he accidentally brush against Mo when he was looking for the bathroom, and since then, you’ve been hunting him?”

Giorgio’s frown deepened. “I do not understand.”

“Giorgio, I will put a fucking tranq in you if you leave this wall,” Gage warned. “Fucking hell. At my own wedding, I have to monitor you boys like you’re Theo and Thandie. And Pozza, if Isaac’s a mark, how much is he worth?”

Giorgio shrugged. “Trillion.”

“Stay on this wall.”

Giorgio mumbled something in Russian.

Joel faced the dance floor again, but Ayesha and Isaac were nowhere to be found. He searched the room for Julien, the human GPS tracker, but he and Ari were in a dark corner attempting to conceive a baby using their tongues alone. Mike had recently reconnected with his wife, so they wouldn’t see him until the end of the century.

Dez came storming over to them. “Do any of you know an asshole named Isaac?”

“Yeah,” Joel said. “Why?”

“Tayler said he was talking to Larke earlier.”

“About what?”

“Does it fucking matter?”

They would have to do better.

They all would have to do better.

It was a wonder how they’d convinced anyone to go out with them, never mind marry and have children with them. In every other situation, they would be bold, walking red flags.

Tayler hurried over, hiking up her reception dress. “Hey, I heard you guys were looking for Isaac,” she said. “But before I say anything, I have to let you guys know something. Isaac’s a flirt, and he tries to play it off, but I’m pretty sure, earlier, I heard him ask Larke to go down on h—”

Dez disappeared.

“Oh, and he even had the nerve to grab Mo’s—”

Giorgio left.

“But the last time I saw him, it was on the elevator with Ayesha. I heard something about going up to her hotel roo—”

Joel headed for the elevator bay.

Yes, they were crazy, but if people would stop giving them reasons to be, every once in a while, they might be able to play sane.

Deciding to forgo the elevator, he took the stairs. When he passed the second floor, his phone buzzed in his pocket.

Tayler

Except for the Ayesha part, none of that was true, but Isaac took advantage of my disabled father and swindled him out of close to twenty-five grand.

Fuck. Him. Up.

CHAPTER23

“I just need to use your bathroom really quickly,” Isaac said, wiggling in place. “I don’t think I’ll make it up to mine.”

He’d asked to walk her to her door, and she let him, assuming he wouldn’t be foolish enough to try anything. What did people see when they looked at The Lethal Six? Regardless of whether she could handle herself, she would never be above calling one of them, or all, to handle whatever situation arose.
