I clench my fists. "Me and Dino aren’t a thing."
"That’s not what Faro told me." Isabella waggles her eyebrows devilishly.
Her girlfriend nods. "We heard there was a video of you beating Dino off this morning."
My cheeks turn bright pink. "A video?"
"Yep. Dino installed a secret camera on Nonna’s patio."
Of course Dino did.
Bastard.
I should’ve known I walked into a trap.
"You can’t trust anything you see on a screen anymore. Not in the age of AI." My voice is firm and level.
Isabella puts her hands on her hips. "Everyone knows you’re crazy about Dino. You’d better make a move before your balls turn into icebergs."
"I bet they’re really blue." Isabella’s country club girlfriend or whatever the hell she is issues me a grim look. "You seem backed up."
"I orgasmed this morning, thanks for your concern."
"How?" Isabella is so nosy.
"After I beat Dino off. It was so hot, my cock spontaneously combusted in my briefs."
I ram my palms over my mouth the second I hear what I said.
Crap.
I admitted to putting my hands on Dino.
"Ha." Isabella smirks as she places her hands on the desk. "We knew that video was legit."
"Don’t be ridiculous." I’ll defend my innocence to the death.
"There’s nothing to be ashamed about. You like twenty-two-year-olds and you’re old enough to be in a nursing home. Own your dirty side." Isabella’s attitude must be rubbing off on her girlfriend, because now two women know precisely how to grind my gears.
"You’d better cut that shit out." I rise to my full stature. Strong. Powerful. Menacing. Every inch of my toned body reflects abject authority.My biceps could easily kill an unsuspecting onlooker with a single flex."Okay, I beat him off. Big whoop. It doesn’t mean I want anything more to do with him."
"Uh huh."
"I only did it to prove to Dino that I felt nothing for him. Zip. Zilch. Nada."
The instant the words leave my lips, I realize that I’m not totally telling the truth.
Something… thrummed to life inside me when I put my hands on Dino.
He’s the man I’ve fought like hell not to fantasize about for years.
The fact that I finally did it nearly proved too much for my old heart.
I’m lucky I didn’t die and go to heaven right then and there.
Isabella’s chick cups my cheek. "You’re a big strong mob boss, but you need to be open with your emotions, Romeo."
Isabella nods. "You’re lying to yourself right now."
