Chapter 15

I track her movements as she moves through the room to take her seat next to Matteo. The memories of last night still fresh in my mind. She’s practically glowing and I know why. Our eyes meet and that sizzle sparks to life.

“Have you given any thought to this Russian issue?” my father asks when we’re all seated at the table for dinner. I watch the servers place the food in front of everyone, but my gaze seems to drift back to her.

“What is it you want done, Father?”

“I asked you a question, Giovanni! I expect an answer!” Taking a deep breath, I try to keep my anger at bay. Some things never change and my father is one of them.

“I think that you should just tell me what you need me to do so I can do it,” I smart off not really giving a shit right now. My night with Asia was amazing. There will never be anything in this world that could compare to it, and I’m not ready to let it go in order to talk about killing.

“Is this the way the families act in California? It would be wise to remember who you are speaking to.” As if I could forget. I swallow hard and turn my gaze to his. Waiting.

“The Columbians are moving into your area in California. I figured when you go back, you can handle that end of the problem.”

If I didn’t know any better I’d say he’s trying to get rid of me. Too bad I have other business to attend here. He doesn’t need to know that though.

“And this end? What do you want me to do here?” Discussing things in front of Asia pisses me off, but I also know why he does it. He likes for her to see what kind of animal I am. He wants that instilled in her so that she will look at Matteo differently.

“Damion Petrov. That is who they have chosen to marry off. He’s a sick person who has dishonorable tastes. I’m sure you won’t have any trouble with getting to him. He’s more of a loner than the others. Often frequents strip clubs while he’s in town. I hear you have quite the club over in California,” he says with a smirk on his face.

I can feel Asia’s eyes burning into the side of my head as I keep my eyes trained on my father. “How soon?” I growl lightly.

“Any time before you leave. When is that again?” Bastard. Fucking bastard.

“I think Giovanni should stick around. It’s been so long since we’ve seen him. It’s nice to catch up,” Matteo chimes in. Only then do I look over and catch the sparkle in Asia’s eyes.

“Giovanni is a very busy man these days. Aren’t you, son?” Calling me son causes me to cringe. I was never his son. I’m nothing more than his pawn. His favorite toy.

“Very. In fact, I need to go get ready to take care of a few things before I leave,” I tell him, shoving my chair back.
