Having Penny in my arms felt right. She was mine again, well, sort of. We still had the issue of her being engaged to my half-brother. Furthermore, we were no closer to coming to any conclusion about her father. A time machine would be cool, so I could travel back to the first night I met Penny and do things over. I wouldn’t let her leave me afterward. And, of course, I would have never bought the fucking Goat.

There was nothing I could do, and I just needed to get my head in the game and figure shit out.

After kissing Penny goodbye, we both headed to the Lopa. As I stepped inside, I felt better about her feelings for me. Some of the hurting had subsided, and I knew we could get through this.

The morning rush helped distract me from thinking of her engagement but only for a little while. Once my break came, I ducked outside to call Xavier.

“Do you still have that P.I. friend? The one who investigates offshore accounts?” I asked.

“Yeah, Steve Bobson. Need his number?”

“Sure.”

“Does this have to do with Pardo?”

“Doesn’t everything?”

He laughed. “Yeah, I guess so.”

“Thanks, man,” I said after getting the number.

Penny found me around the side of the building just as I hung up the phone.

“Hey, I was wondering where you ran off to.”

“Just got off the phone with Xavier. Got the number to a P.I. Hopefully he can help us out.”

“Nice. Can I ask you a question?”

“Sure.”

“Am I a bad daughter? I mean, if we’re right he could go to prison.” She chewed on her thumbnail as her big eyes met mine with a glint of worry engrained in the tawny color.

“Let’s hope so.” Oh shit, maybe I said the wrong thing, judging by the crestfallen expression on her cute face. I wrapped one arm around her, pulling her against my side, kissing the top of her head. I let go and stepped back to meet her eyes, with both hands on her shoulders. “Sorry, listen, your father hasn’t been a very good one. No one should ever force their daughter into something they don’t want to do. I would never do that to Lucy.”

She smiled at me. “You’re a great dad.”

My face heated as I rubbed along the back of my neck. “Thanks.”

“Now get back to work,” she said, slapping me on the ass.

“Oh, that’ll cost you later.” I laughed as I walked away and headed back into the bar. I couldn’t wait to get ahold of Xavier’s friend. It was getting late, so I didn’t want to call after business hours.

Wiping the bar, my phone vibrated in my pocket.

Glancing down to the caller ID, I let out a deep breath. Fuck.

“Hi, Mom. Yeah, been a long time.”

My mother started in on not seeing Lucy enough, and after ten minutes she brought up Dex.

“I know you and him don’t see eye to eye…”

“It’s a lot more than that, Mom. He’s an asshole,” I barked out after excusing myself from the bar and heading back outside into the Florida heat.
