Chapter Twenty-Six

Dante

“So, is it serious?” Leo asked as we turned into the warehouse parking lot.

“Is what serious?” I asked, purposely playing dumb.

“What do you think I’m talking about? The deforestation of the Amazon rain forest?” Leo rolled his eyes. “I’m talking about Corinne, dumbass.”

“What about Corinne?”

“I’m starting to feel like maybe I’m going to have to draw you a picture.” Leo cocked an eyebrow. “Are you and Corinne a serious thing?”

“No. End of conversation.”

She’d made her feelings about relationships clear —broadcasted them on a baby monitor, actually—and I seconded the sentiment. I had no interest in tying myself to one woman, even if that woman was sexy and strong and passionate and a little crazy—in a good way.

Leo was smiling. “Let’s pretend for a second I believe you, just answer me this: How many women have you fucked in… I don’t know… let’s say, the past seventy-two hours?”

I growled. “None of your business.”

What was up with my brothers and that stupid question? There was nothing wrong with riding one train for as long as it lasted. It would end, of course. It always ended. The longest I’d ever been with a woman before Corinne was eighteen hours. What can I say? I got bored easily. It wasn’t my fault Corinne was anything but boring.

My phone rang, and I pulled it out, half-hoping it was Rosa and half-hoping it wasn’t. I still had nothing I could tell her. I glanced at the number, but it seemed she knew I had nothing because it wasn’t her.

“Do you think maybe we should be worrying about something other than who I’m sleeping with at the moment?” I snapped, nodding at the warehouse while I shoved my phone back in my jacket unanswered. “Cristian’s already in there. Let’s go.”

I got out of the Merc and strode toward the warehouse’s front door, not bothering to see if Leo was following. He could sit inside the car all night for all I cared.

Cristian was waiting at the door when I got there, looking as unruffled as ever.

“Has our guest had anything to say yet?” I asked, stepping inside.

Leo followed on my heels.

Cristian shook his head. “His name’s Lando, that’s all I’ve got. The conversation’s been a little one-sided,” he said, holding up his bloodied knuckles. “He says he’ll only talk to you, boss.”

“All right, let’s go talk then.”

I took off my jacket on the way to the back office, folding it over my arm as I stepped inside.

Cristian had a tall, gangly man tied to a chair.

His dark hair was short and greasy and the right side of his face was bruised and so swollen, his eye was a thin slit. All things considering, Lando was in good shape for a guy who’d tried to break into one of our warehouses.

“You seem to have gotten lost, Lando,” I said to him, draping my jacket over an empty chair and rolling up my sleeves.

I cracked my knuckles, making an image of the fiery redhead at home pop into my head.
