CHAPTER TWENTY-TWO

Charles left them to their own devices most of that next day, mainly so they all could recover from their foolish behavior, but after dinner that night he assembled them all into the huge parlor room.

The men sat in the five chairs on one side, while the ladies were seated in the five chairs facing them. Charles and Jenay sat in the two chairs at the back of the group while an empty chair was seated at the head of the group. What inwardly amused Charles and Jenay as they looked out over the group was that every one of them had their legs crossed. Each one of them was casually dressed in what looked to Charles to be the most expensive casual wear money could buy. Every one of them seemed embarrassed by their behavior last night as they sat stoically like the spoiled, rich elites they were.

But Charles still wanted to kick each and every one of their asses for how they behaved last night. Like thugs on a street corner if you ask him. The women as well as the men. Throwing food and drinks and chairs, slipping and sliding and trying to beat each other up: it was unbelievable. He still hadn’t gotten over that scene. If it hadn’t been for Jenay’s calming influence, he would have run up those stairs and beat the shit out of every one of them. And not one of them would have been surprised. Big Daddy Sinatra put the gangster in OG. He was where Mick got that viciousness and ruthlessness from. He just knew how to conceal his better.

But Jenay kept him in their bedroom. It took sex, and plenty of it: a marathon of it. But she managed to calm him down.

Charles continued to size up his guests. They all small-talked with their own gender, the men talking sports, the ladies talking Christmas dishes and who was going to cook what as if nothing bad happened last night. But the scratches and bruises on the men’s faces, and the hurt and sadness in the ladies’ eyes made it clear to Charles that they knew better than that.

Mick was seated in the middle of the men, but he remained silent. His finger was rubbing over the cleft in his chin while his hard green eyes were staring unblinkingly at Roz. Although all of the women were constantly taking peeps at their men, Mick noticed how Roz never once looked his way. Not even for a second. As if she was so over him that it wasn’t even funny. And what pissed him off and inwardly was beginning to enrage him was how he seemed unable to get over her! Even after last night. Even after that hatred he saw in her eyes.

Then the double doors to the parlor slid open, and clinical psychologist Dr. Anthony Sinatra, better known as Tony, walked in.

Although the ladies were thrilled to see the handsome man walk in, the men immediately were wary. “Oh Lord,” Sal whispered to them.
