Peyton didn’t remember falling asleep but it must have been sometime after their third round, well into the night. Hadina had teased and played with her until she was nothing but bones and spent orgasms.

She looked beside her, expecting to see Hadina tucked in at her side, but the bed was empty. The sheets were ruffled and still warm, so she knew that Hadina had to have only just left. It tugged deep in her chest, seeing that empty side of the bed.

Throwing the sheets off, Peyton climbed out of bed and pulled on a robe. She made her way towards the bedroom door, hearing Hadina’s muffled voice as she spoke on the phone. Peyton cracked the door open and pressed her ear against the small, open space to listen.

“Cálmate, hermano. Ella está a salvo. She’s okay, I promise. Nobody knows where she is.”

A chill went down Peyton’s spine as she listened. She didn’t know who Hadina was referring to, but it sure as hell wasn’t her.

“Ay, I know you’re worried, Darío, but watch your fucking tone. I’m telling you—I know she’s safe. Me aseguré de ello. Nobody will hurt her.” Hadina sighed, leaning back against the wall with the phone to her ear, eyes closed and rubbing her temples with her free hand. Peyton could hear the indistinct sound of a male voice, tone raised, but she was too far away to make out what he was saying. “I don’t know what’s happening with you and I don’t want to know unless it’s necessary, but trust me, she is safe. You know I love her, hermano. Ella es familia. Nobody will hurt Itza or they’ll be facing your wrath and mine. Sí. Sí. Hablar pronto. Ta bueno.”

Hadina hung up the phone with her eyes still closed. Peyton threw open the door and let it slam against the wall, startling the woman before her.

“Who the fuck is Itza and why have you never mentioned her to me?” Peyton yelled, inching back when Hadina moved forward. She held up a hand, halting her. “If you’re lying to me or cheating on me, I swear to fucking God, I will murder you and your little whore before I leave your life for good. You get one chance to tell me the truth, Hadina. One last fucking chance.”
