I let out a breath. This one is going to be embarrassing. “Fuck, what’s Ghost doing blabbing my shit? I made it clear this was personal not business.”
“Hold up, he didn’t blab. Ghost used the Titan MC’s contacts to get the information. The men didn’t know it wasn’t for the club and it ended up on EZ’s desk. So, he emailed me the information, not knowing it wasn’t for me. I just got off the phone with EZ a second ago. He called to apologize because he didn’t know about it, and he felt bad he didn’t send the information to the right person. The man has his hands full since he got married. He’s also been working hard to keep his eyes on Liberty. So, his men have been running the club more often than naught. It’s a fact that’s not sitting well with him.”
“It’s cool. I don’t really give a damn. It’s not like I care if you know what I’m doing. I paid for the info out of my pocket, not thefamily’s resources. I’m not working under the table. You know that.”
“I do know you, although I’m pissed. Angelina is family, so if you’re doing this shit, you do it with the weight of the DeLuca family name. You know whoIam, too. Family is everything. Angelina is one of us.”
“She belongs to me.”
Antonio shakes his head. “I take it she agrees with that?”
“Absolutely.”
Antonio gives a small laugh. “It’s about time. If I had to hear this friend discussion one more time, I was going to go insane.”
I throw him an annoyed look, which makes him smirk at me.
“So, tell me, is this Peter guy the one you suspect in Angelina’s attack?”
I rub the back of my neck. “No. That’s another reason I didn’t use the DeLuca name. This concerns Angelina, but it’s not about the attack.”
“Then, who is he?”
“Fuck,” I sigh out with an annoyed breath. “He’s some dumb fuck that made my Gia cry.”
“Do you know how much I love that you’re strung out over a woman but keep acting like a pussy and not taking what you want?”
I roll my eyes. “Gia has scars. I can take my time to make her mine. I want to make sure she’s with me every step of the way.” I shrug.
“Did you ever pause to think maybe what she needs is a man to show her that she’s desirable?”
“I think I show her that,” I snap, but I’m not positive. I’m not sure it’s possible to make her believe it at this point.
“Take my advice,” he replies with a smirk. “Show her with your body. That’s what a woman needs.”
“Your woman and Gia are different people. Gia has scars. I have to be careful not to scare her to the point that she runs from me.”
“Show her the scars mean nothing. Women respond to the touch of a man. Show her with more than your pretty face or words, brother. If not, you may lose her to a man that will.”
“Like Zane? You need to keep him away from my woman,” I growl.
Antonio shrugs. “Technically, she isn’t yours. It’s not my job to piss around your woman’s feet to keep the other males away. That’s on you.”
“Piss around her feet?”
“Marking your territory. All alpha male animals do it.”
“I don’t think I should be taking relationship advice from a man who compares himself to a dog.”
“I said all animals and asshole, we’re all animals if you get down to it. We act and react on instinct and emotion. You’d be well to take my advice. Don’t forget I got my dick in my woman the first night we met andnow, she’s knocked up and totally and irrevocably mine forever. Therefore, I win.”
“Some days I think you might be as insane as Melina says you are.”
“From your point of view, maybe. Once you man the fuck up, claim your woman, and tie her to you, you will see just how smart I am. Now enough of this. Who the hell is this Peter person and how did he make Angelina cry? We can’t be killing someone who bumped into her somewhere and knocked her down and was an asshole to her.”
“Liar. You’d totally kill someone who knocked Melina down and then bitched at her about it.”
He seems to think it over then shrugs. “Eh, probably. So, is that what we’re doing?”
